all of them should sent to the shadow realm. Geographically speaking, the map layout of Sweden makes no sense. How did North Team spawn get to that position lol. Air dropped tanks?? Or they abandoned the flank on the West they entered from?

I’ve made a very simple resolution regarding ground battles: As long as Gaijin doesn’t properly address the issue of players with ‘Asian-script’ usernames,I’m boycotting the European server
Consider that apparently in the killcam (and maybe also the replays, not sure though if server side and client side replays make any difference in that regard) apparently spall is only shown when it destroys or damages modules/crew. I unfortunately can’t confirm whether thats true and why it is that way, just remembered someone stating that in the forum some time ago. And it definitely feels that way so i understand why you or anyone would think that. Especially when shooting the T-series tanks from the sides i guess it can look like the dart is just flying right through the autoloader without any spall, because spall is produced when the dart pens the hull, is then absorbed by the 20 mil plate around the autoloader (realistic or not i can’t tell, thats just what happens in game) dart flies through the autoloader, through the 20 mil armor on the other side and the other side of the hull where spall is created again. Which obviously means and explains why near misses of the ammo in t series autoloaders wont set the ammo off, because inside of the autoloader theres only the dart passing right through, no spall and you would need to hit the ammo directly. Maybe can someone pls confirm?
As for the shots disappearing on the sideskirt of a leo 1: thats unfortunately the effect of the awesome volumetric shells which were introduced in an attempt to not give shells a diameter of 0 and somehow try to model armor more accurately which just ended in a different mess. It happens to basically every tank in game that has volumetric armor. Shots at armor overlaps are basically a diceroll.
Stuff like that and that its so hard to get confirmations to stuff like this (awesome new wiki with half the info of the old one certainly doesnt help) probably leads to thousands of bias claims and cheat reports, but as long as the snail can handle/ignore all of that because money is big no matter what i guess it won’t change. I’d like to have stuff like that (hitcams, xrayview) and all that info to be easily and officially confirmed and available for the players but well, this is war thunder and a not-so-small part of its playerbase will also forever wonder why their radar missile went for that friendly flying towards them though they clearly locked the enemy right next to him thats going cold.
In the end its kinda funny and not their fault because well, the snail could (should?) make all this info way easier accessible than it is now where youd have to read through hundreds of pages of forum text to find actually reliable info on some of the weirder or nieche stuff that can happen in this game. Considering this, note that the first paragraph i wrote is also only hearsay. It’s incredibly hard to confirm what happened on a killcam to be bs, a bug or “realistic” because to begin with its already hard enough to tell what is and what isnt shown on the killcam
Hey @Necrons31467, since you’re so knowledgeable about pings and servers, can you explain clearly, technically, and in detail how a server can decide that a player from Asia can have a better ping than me on the European server? What are the criteria used to give me a lower value than him?
How do you determine they have lower ping?

You gave me that explanation when I questioned the results of the simultaneous shots; now you’re dodging ?
No.
No that’s not what I said. I would suggest you watch a youtube video on this topic that goes into full detail how it works.

You’re playing with words. Explain to me how it’s possible for shot information to be faster in one direction than the other, given the geographical situation of the two players. In fact, you’ve understood the meaning of my request very well, but for a reason I can’t explain, you’re reluctant to answer it clearly.
