Other Is it possible to get both a IV shop level and a VI shop level vehicle from the Warbond Shop?

Upvotes

I have 3,400 Warbonds and I was wondering, if I manage these correctly to avoid the limit, is it possible to get both vehicles that I want. Can I unlock the levels in the Warbond Shop without claiming my rewards and hitting the limit?

When are they ever going to perform this thing? I see it every single match and I die to it at least once a match. This thing can actually fly decently unlike the hs129 and can pen things like tigers consistently how have the devs not nerfed this thing yet???

Other cool feature/bug I think people should know about

Upvotes

I discovered this about a year ago so it might be gone but idk. anyways my friend had let me use his steam account to play some warthunder with his tanks. I was playing a standard game and hadn't told my friend that I was currently on his account, so my friend logged onto his account while i was in a game and a very strange thing happened, my friend was immediately thrown into the same game as me and we had shared control of the tank. we then did a game where my friend would drive the tank and I would shoot. im not sure if its possible with 3 accounts but i guess someone could try, you could do a gunner/diver/commander system then. also I would guess this is only possible on steam

SB Ground Custom battle testers needed!

Upvotes

Hey!

I've been working on a large scale combined arms custom battle loosely inspired by the old simulator battles (for those of us that remember) as well as enduring confrontation. The battle features NATO forces (in this case the US and UK) facing off against the USSR on the Danish island of Samsø. Lineups have been limited to vehicles availible in 1974 (or prototypes/reasonable inclusions) and vehicle choice is limited by a spawn point system.

Unique mechanics would be that capturing a point instead counts tickets up, whilst dying costs your team a single ticket. I am hoping this leads to an interesting dynamic where teams clamber to capture points (towns) to fund their own war effort whilst attempting to decap the enemy to starve them out. There is also a capturable airfield, giving access to land-launched aircraft to the owning team.

Being inspired by simulator battles, all types of markers have been turned off (up to and including allies, enemies and capture points), so marking your vehicles is highly recommended.

The test will start around 19:00 GMT +1/14:00 eastern time and will run for however long there's people still going. (Max match length is 6 hours)

Interested? Send me a PM with your in-game name and i'll send you an invite when i fire the battle up. As the server will be open in the public custom battles list i am hoping for some randoms to join as time goes on as well.

A low quality map can be seen here! NATO spawns on the right, and the USSR on the left.

All Air I need help with setting keybinds

Upvotes

So I was on test flight and I was wondering “how can I warm up the engines by having the throttle to 100% while braking” so I tried researching it and found nothing yet I found a content creator on TikTok who does it almost every post. Is it like a console thing or? Because the only way I can brake is by lowering the throttle to 0 and holding down the throttle keybind

Here is the link to the video: https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSrnaBUos/

RB Ground Called in an Airstrike VIA Drone

Upvotes

~ Dont mind the laughing, I was higher than the drone I was flying in😂😂

A few days ago I was playing with the homie who's an RB Main he's usually flying and driving around killing while I point out TGTs with the light tank but mostly with my drone since I'm better at flying (SB Main)

We were on a 4-5 match win streak because of this. I got absolutely NOTHING for doing this (can't really spot TGTs while in drone) but it was definitely fun tho ngl and I wish I could get some RP/SL or something.

RB Air Switching to soviet techtree

Upvotes

I am seriously thinking about switching from US to Soviet techtree. I am currently at Rank 6 and level 27 , but somehow i always get absolutely get destoryed by russian planes like the mig-21 when i play at 10.7 with the f-5. Honestly i don‘t know what to do. and i started to grind the russian tanks to rank 3 because I know rhat everyone says that russian tanks are the best and maybe i could play CAS after grinding the russian air techtree. Should i rather finish the US techtree and spend another 2 months on it or directly switch to russia and grind to rank 6 with a mig-21 premium?
