Gosh the tank battles are amazing, I had a fight with two Stuart’s while I was in the Puma. I had all my guys expect for my loader get killed. They thought they killed my tank and started to drive off. Hit them both in the back then used the tank with 1 guy to kill 40 enemies. Shit was like a movie.
One time I lost a majority of my crew and just had the gunner alive, I was on the defending team and we had lost the previous objective so I figured I'd say screw it and hold off the allied advance and cover the rest of my team running to the next objective until I ran out of ammo or died. I got a decent amount of kills until the enemy team woke up and threw an explosive pack at me.
I’m a War Thunder play been playing for 8 years now), but the armor models, damage models, and shell shrapnel does not feel the same. I know for a fact that a Sherman can pen a Pz. IV frontally in War Thunder with ease but in this game, you have to actually aim for weak spots. Even when you do pen, the Sherman doesn’t get the APCBC like in War Thunder and the shrapnel sucks in this game so the round does nothing.
@@EraOfJack yeah, while the models and internal layout are straight lifted out of WT, the shells are way much less deadly, i mean the stuart in enlisted can tank Puma rounds on the UFP and as you said, they do jack, this is why here weakspots and knowing the internals on your targets is paramount, luckily there are less tanks to recognise at 3-4 per nation
Another Pro tip: Get out of your tank as soon as you spawn and press X on the tank to order your squad inside it. They will then stay inside the tank even if you get out later to make repairs (and then they won't get gunned down while just standing around waiting for you to fix it). You can even get out and capture points and stuff, and then switch to a crew member in the tank to re-embody it. Don't worry about mixing up your gunner/loader skills or anything, they will apply regardless of what seat they are sitting in.
Pro tip: You can start getting into the tank during the repair. You want to hit F when your repair is about halfway done to board it the moment you finish fixing it.
something else that's as important in this game as it is in real life is that you shouldn't stray too far from your infantry. Certain campaigns are rife with effective AT weapons and people who use them, so going in alone just makes you a half-blind sitting duck.
@@Fiasco3 you're exactly right, although at this early in the games release, tanks are still king because a lot of the new players don't understand how to effectively kill tanks yet.
Major respects to this guy, not only did he teach us well and play well, but when he made any sort of mistake that we couldnt notice he would call it out himself to teach us not to do that, unlike most other players who would only want to seem perfect, and even then hes such an amazing tank player!
If every model is from War thunder, then there’s probably 1000s of videos about it. You could look up the type of Sherman it is, and find a Warthunder gameplay video on it they always talk about the armor. You gotta see how many MM your gun can penetrate up to
top tier tip to help the tankers while outside, ping the enemy tank. first shot is life or death all too often, so knowing their location is such a boon. and all too often the enemy team is smart enough to ping your tanks.
When your a noob with tanks, its best to use the driver seat when driving. You get a somewhat decent view on where you're driving. And I personally like going with a full crew for one reason: When your tank gets hit by an enemy tanks and it doesn't one shot you but kills some of your crew, the AI will swap seats with the killed crewmember and that is especially important for driving, gunning, and reloading the tank. And loaders are still helpful cuz without one, reloading becomes a pain as it is slower without a loader than with a loader
Nice video. I've played war thunder for over 10 years and love enlisted so far. My major concern is that some of these tank shells seem to do no damage, should penetrate but don't, or are way off on enlisted's x-ray view of when you hit a tank. I'm gonna chalk it up to the game still being in beta and bugs bc I couldn't believe my eyes when I couldn't kill a Sherman from the side, when I have no problem doing so in war thunder.
They've added the option to see this detailed and extra view of the tanks in the main game of Enlisted as of late December 2021 possibly later but that is when I started playing and also when I found it in the squad menu when you click on the tank image in the tank squad.
I don't pop my commanders head out, I just switch between driver and gunner. for situational awareness I just look at the map where a lots of friendlies around so i can provide them sufficient fire power and at the same time they protect me from sneaky infantry.
Man I only got stuart so far (campaign level 7), and it feels like shooting pebbles, Shermans HE looks like actual HIGH EXPLOSIVE round that injures people not directly next to your crosshair.
IIRC the explosive mass of the stuarts HE rounds is less than that of hand grenades IRL, so it makes sense that the HE does barely anything out of the 37mm cannon.
angle a pz3 with around 25-30 degree to enemy tank. angle sherman about 10-15 degree to enemy tank. shermans sides are really weak, and front is extremely good with that vertical angle it has already. its easy to over angle sherman, many rookies do that. gives a nice oppotunity for your opponent. i would take it :D
More great help. I've been able to sit and mow down infantry approaching a point pretty well. Unfortunately no one else sees fit to use the advantage and take the cleared out point.
Well after I had watched this Video I finally get "Best tanker" on defense... At first I was so confused as to why I don't have Zoomed scope as others in the video do (I was in commander seat) and now I know importance of full tank crew and swapping seats and how to shoot weakspots
i had some hard time driving my bt-7, i can't just kill any german tanks especially pz3j, you have to aim for a the little crevice between the turret's mantlet and the hull, i had to squint my eyes to get a precise shot the moment i did the enemy tank would already take out my gunner and finish me.
I've played this game a bit on and off and I try to drive tanks but usually it doesn't end well or even start well for that matter, lol. I usually leave the spawn and get one shot by another tank after I kill some infantry. I don't know if it was me positioning my tank wrong or what so I decided to watch your video. After I watched your video I went straight into a match as the germans and used the Pz. III N. I don't know if it was a fluke or what but I got 85 kills, 56 of the 85 kills were on objective offense, 6 tanks destroyed, and the only squad I lost was that tank squad at the end of the match. I had best tanker, best vehicle squad, ranged master, and crusher. So, thank you for the help/advice!
Use light tanks as support vehicles, don’t rush and try to just kill as much as you can. Use your smoke to hide your infantry advance and use your arms to lay suppressive fire as your squad advances
Tbh hardest part is getting these actually good tanks like Sherman's because at the start your best tank is the puma because HE does something to infantry, then you got mr Stuart over here being a special kid and making dust clouds but nothing else (Hint: Starting stuart is a fucking pacifist)
Lot of people don't know how to use the tanks I love tanks so I know what to do and how to do it. That's the number one thing I see people do wrong if they drive the tanks right into enemy infantry thinking that they are untouchable! Definitely suicide! Always keep your tank around friendly Infantry because just like you said in the video they will be somebody C4 or grenades ready to blow your shit up and all they got to do is plant in the back of your tank and you're done! Good video 💪
Tanks are infantry support they are supposed to and designed to be close to infantry. That's why there are those videos of ambushed tanks because they wandered far from their infantry and were targeted by diversants
@@spankyjeffro5320 Look at any military manual , tanks are designed to be close to infantry , if they are not close to infantry well then you are living in a fantasy world , those tanks that were not in cloes proximity to infantry were subject to demolition crews . Its as simple as that. Its nice to imagine how world of tanks or war thunder tanks are realistic but no they are not realistic simply because there is no infantry present, those kinds of tank battles never happaned, unless its very specific freak accident. Some tanks had specific jobs but it was always close to infantry unless we are talking artillery in which case it depends on the situation , whether artilery is placed close to infantry or not. You see tanks and infantry have a symbiotic relationship , no one would dare peek out at tank and its good for infantry to be in close proximity to a tank on the other hand tanks are vulnerable to demolition crew , with infantry around its hard for any demolition crew to ambush a tank , and you are not wrong with saying that a tank is a mobile weapon system , yes it is a mobile weapon system used as infantry support .
I have a question for you Quadro that maybe you have noticed in testing or in gameplay. I have been testing HE use on Pumas with the stuart, and for SOME reason if you put 1 shot near the top of the tank it seems to ricochet through the back of the tank for 2-3 seconds and then kill some crew? it dosnt show it on the shot cam. but i tried it twice and both were shoot he- 3 seconds pass and boom the crew dies out of nowhere in the puma.
@@HeyQuadro as far as visual ques not so much. its litterally like the shrapnel takes a few seconds to reach the crew but without any feedback?? maybe its a bug and it is on fire? give it a shot and see if you can recreate! i hit side turret with it at 90 degrees. so tank facing north and turret facing west i hit turret over back part of tank. this happend, as well as a shot on topish of turret.
yeah using xbox controller hard to control tanks in it the reticule goes moving way to fast sometimes to even be able to aim correctly am i doing something wrong the only way i can actualy geta kill with controller is whn i stay still and hidden like in trees
@@HeyQuadro I can fly.. on console at that.. but I don't do talking.. I only put the numbers (multikills) on the board. I usually prefer assaulter aircraft.
I've been playing a lot lately and every time I play the Battle of Berlin, my tank is getting oneshot and I have to put a lot of effort into blowing up the enemy tanks (I play the Germans and speaking of tank to tank combat). Does anyone have any tips as to how to handle my situation? Also I'm colourblind so the green/yellow crosshair is impossible to tell the difference for me - though I can see if it's red or not. Any kind of help would be appreciated!
tip #1 is dont play berlin Axis because your team will be mostly bots. tip #2 is to go to the practice range and test out how to kill enemy tanks. T34 is weak at the neck also sorry about your colorblindness. We've been trying to push for better accessibility for awhile now but no luck
So you know where the turret is usually it’s smart to hit there as most of the crew is located there and also just aim for tracks or flank around and unload into the engine
Dont forget that running over infantry in a fast tank is the best way to save ammo, get kills while reloading, cause chaos, and dodge explosives. Alot of people will just park the tank and get flanked easily when shooting at infantry.
Ya sure that might sound like a good idea... But rushing ur tank into infantry is NOT a good idea. You need to stick close to your own infantry, so they can cover you from flankers or people with based etc. Tanks should be used more as support and not as a entirely offensive thing. See too many people driving into the enemy in their own and dying quick
on the crew positions: there are some crew skills (3 in fact) that are position specific: +90% speed gear shifting (driver) cost 8 green perk point (agility?) change ammo type without losing reload progress (loader) cost 13 green perk point improved targeting skill of tank gun (gunner) cost 16 yellow perk point (strength?) the first two are easy to understand the effects, but for the latter i'm not sure how much it affects the gunnery, does it means the gunner use the controls faster? does he practice horizontal and vertical training of the gun at the same time? both? i'm kind of lost on what it does since it's so vague
Someone else mentioned that it probably means they can move the turret both vertically and horizontally at the same time (something they normally dont do)
does every map have a reload area, or station for tanks? Engineers i wonder when you set up ur AT canon, can you also set up Extra Ammo for the AT? i know you can set up ammo for infantry but don't know if it work for the AT gun as well haven't tried it too excited heat of the moment lol ty 4 video friendo
played War Thunder for 3k hours already, feels like they reduced the post penetration damage for tanks in Enlisted for balancing purpose (?) in some occasion, Pz. II C can't even penetrate T-60 rear turret armor smh
Pz. II C is very OP agains the T-60 i'm just started the Moscow campany, is the same crap of the Stuart vs Puma in the Normandy campany, jesus, so unbalanced, at least the T-60 is great to kill infantry
@@thekaiseriswiser4451 Not in Unlisted, 100% sure is not, cuz they hit kill me so easy by the front, there's some angles that you you shoot a specif point u also hitkill the Pz II C in by the front BUT, i don't know where, i just spray hits whem the cross turns green, i manage to kill A LOT of them easy, some with less than 3 bullets of the 65-70 20mm automatic cannon. I don't know where is it cuz i don't have WT installed to check it out . . . but is easy, isn't OP at all like i said . . . was just lack of EXP......... BUT, i'm back to Normandy and the Puma is very very OP no doubt about it, sucks. But the US team is made full of warriors and we make a hell of a fight. (Sometimes, a swear for god, i shot like 10 times in the ammohack of the Puma, checking out and correcting in the hit camera, and that thing just refused to blow, dam u Gaijin to hell. (Maybe the guy of the video here uses a full upgraded Stuart, mine has no upgrades.)
@@wolffjaeger9723 Man i don't know, i don't even play with axes, but, i know got to be easy cuz i took a lot of hit kills by the front, but is also easy to you to die i was wrong.
It was the battle of berlin, We were crewed in our ol darling, a panzer 4 J..we had crashed in a artillery hole and was stuck as the soviets stormed. We rained machine gun fire and tank rounds, even knocked out 3 tanks before we finally got out of the hole and destroyed 2 more.
Berlin campaign variant: 1.Spawn 2.Jagdpanther is literally aimed at you already 3.Die 4.Spawn your radio squad, hide in a corner and cry calling art support every minute to reach 6k score while your team's failing miserably.
As a War Thunder player with more than 6k hours in game with most being in tanks, Enlisted is a wee bit different, ive only gotta to lvl 15 in the Normandy campaign, with that being said, aiming for the 3rd roller wheels on shermans is your best bet, thin armor that takes a skilled player to angle right where the 50mm on the Puma wont pen. The infantry aspect of enlisted still catches me offf guard as i get zoned in supressive fire/going for tanks than some salty boi comes up and turns me into a wreckage heep. I really hope at some point Enlisted has working adjustable sights, AS i have a few custom sights for my WT tank that work just fine,
with the Stuart and you see a puma, either shoot just over the top rear corner of the front wheel (ammo rack), usually takes two shots, or aim for the turret, front right cheek (from your perspective) is a guaranteed gunner kill
when you are up top, how do you switch from the main gun to the M-2 machine gun? Also, when in the driver seat is the machine gun the only weapon you can use?
Is it just me or switching to driver allows the tank to go a tad faster? maybe is perspective but itfeels like its good to use the driver for a while while you move from the spawn to the actual battle
I know your problem. In War Thunder, there are MANY MANY tank shell types. The shells you are testing within War Thunder are most likely APHE (A combination of AP and HE which penetrates the tank THEN explodes) In Enlisted, however, there are only 2 shell types for those tanks: HE and AP AP Is practically a metal slug that has no explosive powder (makes it more difficult to explode ammunition and fuel but creates spalling and shrapnel which can kill crew) HE is a shell that has lots of explosive power but has little to no penetration (Better suited towards infantry, stationary, and very light tanks) To test these more effectively you can go under the shell list in the Protection Analysis and then you can hover over each shell with your mouse to figure out whether it's AP or HE (whichever one you're testing)
As a war thunder player I fucking dominate with tank on tank combat. So many new players don't know where to aim and im out here 1 shotting everyone it's the best
@@DJWitt-it8ui make sure you learn how to time the explosives for killing tanks, while holding left click for explosives throw, you can use right mouse button and wait a couple seconds to make the explosives blow up quicker after throwing so the tank can't drive away from it!!
@@kestrelyt1450 its all good made me rethink the tanks after that one lol and thanks i didnt know that i thought the ai where just chucking nades my way till my tank gave in
"Ur not gonna get as many kills in a tank as inf"...... wierd cause everytime I play tank its like 85-0. No inf squads even close kills/pointswise. Also u get shitloads of points for killing enemy tanks
What i found out (i main allies on normandy)the allies tanks for the most part are super weak i use the jumbo which i think is THE beefiest tank on allies but i feel like there is alot of german tanks that seemingly have no green or orange spots on the front(head to head fighting) BUT with the exception of the barrel so even the strongest tanks have weak barrels and will blow out the barrel rendering the tank useless regardless of the armor obviously the crew has to jump out and repair the tank which makes killing the crew pretty easy
Hi everyone! Nice vid! But i have a question unanswered : I'm playing on series X and with controller. I'm having serious problems managing with gears, often I'm struggling stopping my tank and shot to someone ... Since i love being a tanker, this "feature" it's killing me. Sry for bad english, but if Someone understood please answer me
unfortunately my only real advice here is to try to "reverse" with your tank to bring yourself to a full stop quickly. Tanking on console is really rough from what I understand.
The problem I have with the base tank (the first one you unlock in the Normandy campaign as the Allies) is the HE round has no splash damage on infantry or destroyable buildings. I would see a squad or more bunched up and only the guy who my reticle was one would be killed. Is it an upgrade thing or is that just how it works for the base tank? I don’t have any trouble using AP on other tanks and I’ve killed a few tigers even but whenever I use HE on infantry I’ll get maybe one or two kills even when there’s 5 of em bunched up.
Ugh me too. You can hit the turret to kill the gunner, or get around the sides and hit right above the tracks to hit the driver. Either way though, that thing is a tough little bugger.
@@HeyQuadro Man I wish that was my problem, I actually meant that I can't use it to save my life. The damn gun never kills other tanks for me, and I've sprayed through an entire tank with green hitmarkers so I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
