[Poll] "Keen Vision" perk is game breaking

You think this now, but how many times are you assuming now, that everything you died to was related to this without knowing how long it’s genuinely been like this?

I feel as though there is a bug in amongst this because the demonstration that led to this, shows really odd outcomes, and will no doubt be looked at if reported in the correct manner.

It depends on what mode you have selected as to what it says it affects. The people who said it didn’t have effect in anything other than Arcade were the ones who were wrong all along.

I literally had no clue what you tried to say.

Then maybe you need to read more…

Sadly I didn’t.
Many bugs are plaguing the game for years now so it’s easily mistaken as a bug, as it’s pretty braindead on it’s own.

My takeaway is that some people just don’t use binoculars in GRB? I don’t even think when I use them, it’s a subconscious action I take before I push out into the open from a concealed position.

Yea, I absolutely always use them, as I scout a lot, but also it’s more that I look for people to artillery lurking out wide.

The best usage of that squad target marker if you aren’t in a squad. Plot a point, drop artillery in there.

98% of the time not really

I have a 150 crew and this keeps happening. This has to be bugged.
In the first clip the tank is directly in the scope and just goes invincible.
I had this happen once with a Maus within 100 Meter laughed my ass of how bad it is.

Big up gladiators squadron (my one) for talking about this for ages

I have in the past observed several time tank tracks in the snow, moving towards me. But no tank on them. As I have maxed crews and the tracks were very near, this seems to be a rendering error in some way.

Do you have a video as that sounds hilarious ?

I am genuinely confused by this

I watched the video, Ive been playing this game for years and I have NEVER experienced this. Like, ever.

Almost none of my crews have more than 1-2 points in keen vision, its literally the last skill I ever level up because its the most useless, yet I can hear tanks idling behind rocks and buildings, I can hear them fire, even when I am the only friendly tank around. I have legitimately NEVER seen an enemy tank just appear in an open field like that, especially not at that close range.

The last time I remember anything like this happening was over a year ago and even then it was an enemy tank that I was looking at disappeared for about 2 seconds and then re appeared down the other end of a steet on Breslau, and he was too far away to hear his engine noise.

Im not sure how to react to something I genuinely have never experienced with my own eyes or ears before.

And even if this bug does exist, removing keen vision isnt going to fix it, its just going to make it equally bad for everyone. They need to fix the bug itself. I also highly disagree that its Pay2win. Even with this bug Its still far less useful than Weapon reloading for example…

afaik it also affects ground arcade, but to a lesser degree.

Ground is not so calculation heavy as naval (with all the shells flying there at the same time).
My guess is targets could render all the time without much impact on performance.
This should make it wee bit easier to deal with cheaters shooting from across entire map…

This can only be achieved by improving the servers which are struggling even with this rendering

Googled warthunder invisible tanks weeks ago results = research keen vision have been researching keen vision ever since.

This is one of the pitfalls of not having experienced crews when you buy those premium top tiers and not having ground through the trees you are basically blind until that skill is improved, you only need a few ticks in the skill and then its fine.

Pro tip = field repair decreases your field repair time too
