I just wish there was a 3rd person wiev when u drive/fly a vehycle and i dont care how much op it might seem. I just done enjoy driving anything when i cant see my beauty in action…
Dont enjoy*
I disagree with you.
1.) Its absolutely unhistorical. I think it would be cool to give tank commander binoculars, so you can see better, but that all.
2.) It would make vehicles OP and absolutely unbalanced.
If you like historic shooter games, but more arcadish, go play BF5 or CoD WW2, this game focuses on realism and historicty.

No. Just no.
I like War Thunder and consider it as historical sort of i cant see any problem there to be honest… Tanks are slow AF and u can have 2 per battle anyway so it doesnt matter that u see when u cant shoot anyway. Anyway they are still in minor when u get overrun by squads with AT weapons or planes there is no chance for you. But there are always ppl that see problem with this. Iam not.
War Thunder hasnt got infantry, this game has. If WT had infantry, it would be unballanced too.

It should be kept to first person. ALSO I believe there should be no lead indicators for the planes trying to shoot each other. Tanks could keep their penetration indicator since it’s not always guaranteed and are more technical but should absolutely remove lead indicator for aircrafts.

you do realize that the biggest weakness for a tank is that it’s 90% blind? so why should they get rid of that when the game is infantry focused via the 3rd person view?

No. Just keep it the way it is, it would give tankers chance to run from all the infantry trying to kills it. Even now you can dodge 90% of TNT thrown at you just by being mobile.
Yea buts its like 65 units against 2 tanks. I really dot concider this as unbalanced sorry still cant see the point…
Ok just be honest all these posts are reactions of non vehycle players who just cry about unbalancing etc. Why would u even consider something like yea it needs weakness. Its weakness is its in lesser numbers and its slow AF and its very easy to kill since most of maps are not on open field but in urban areas so its easy to flank it and shoot it. I really cant see the problem.
You can always unbutton your commander…
I personally like the forced 1st person as it reminds me of actually driving one and the risks associated with unbuttoning.
I dont think its not appealing for some ppl just to see a big hole in the middle on their screens. I just like tanks and i like to look at them. When i cant see it how its work, how its drive, how its shoot i wont enjoy it. thats just how it is for me its like having a sex when lights are turned off…
I get ya… All these tanks are from War Thunder and I played that a lot. They have a third person view there and you can even customize them.
This is an infantry focused game and I think keeping the tanks with 1st Person actually adds that infantry dependency depth; which, was completely missing from WT. It also gives you risk in having to repair.
I think they’ve done an awesome job with this… I’d even like to see more tank centric events/battles as I feel it’s better over here than even WT for this.
not all since i main the sherman and had games where i never died and can easily wipe squads, same in bt7, puma, and t-60. so third person mode isn’t really needed, hell you don’t even need to use the commander to do that, also the only way for infantry to kill a tank is to sneak up on it which is what 3rd person prevents
I never said that u cant be good in tank my point only was i wont enjoy it no matter how many kills i have since i cant see the tanks when i like them. If ppl let u play and wipe them again and again and nobody takes plane to kill you its not problem that game no need 3rd person wiev its matter that team u play against is totaly dumb sorry but its true. I could kill u in your tank and no 3rd person wiev would ever saved you trust me… if i wanted…
Another thing that is nice with this is enslisted is it brings in the balancing aspects of Vehicle visibility; which, is missing from WT that has the 3rd person view.
When playing my tanks, I find myself constantly watching where my forces are to help with this visibility issue. It’s a nice balancing mechanism…
Yea i get that u like it but honestly i would never touched WT if i could not see my tank…
you’re right since that’s what staying on the move is for but seriously if you want to look at your tank just hope out and have someone else take it for a spin since other players can use your vehicles that is also how get more crewmembers when you’re down to your last man

Yea but i want to play it and look at it. Besides i dont think it works this way i think u can take ,passegner’’ but i also think when all your crew leave the tank and somebody kills your it destroys the tank or something like that it wont let you anybody use your tank without you, but i dont care about that…
