Why should the ability to see something in a game mode where player skill to spot things is being tested be gated behind a non-player skill related factor?
Tying render distance to crew skill is like tying gun dispersion to a crew skill to simulate the “gunner’s aim” or even more fittingly egregious - smoothness of aircraft control input to crew skill (especially in Full-real control mode).
That is one of the issues with the mechanic it should always render enemy tanks (including sound), but it should be a skill that limits the distance it can be called out (by crew ie: Tiger 200m) and scouted that’s the kind of fix I was referring to.
Yeah before that change you could spot planes taking off from Airfield in air battles. It was kind of silly tbh as people knew straight away where entire enemy team is (including bombers) so there was no hidding at all.
It has nothing to do with settings and has been documented by YouTubers on what is happening
See from 5 minutes onwards in particular…
It’s even worst
Its funny when you play air sim, and by using targeting pod you are able to see engines smokes, but not planes…
This is another mechanic that will force f2p players to abandon the game or pay. Many of my friends without a premium account can barely earn enough for new machines, and can only dream of having an expert crew.
People need to realize that this an issue of the anti-cheat being overly aggressive
If they render every tank then wallhacks will work even better
Just bring back CN servers so you can safely loosen up the anti cheat and everything will be fine again
Or find a way to play engine and gun sounds correctly without telling the client where the vehicle is

Add to this that: Sound is only audible when enemy is detected. explained here: https://youtu.be/bE2Dg3F9SwU?si=oEhWCDhVOHoW7fHD
Yeah, because 50 ton tank will stop immediately after having engine blown up. You know there is also transmission that’s allowing tank to roll? Or you haven’t thought about that?
Rest of the mechanics you are talking about are things community asked for and don’t impact realism othat much. Hell, more modules even improves realism. On the other hand you have stupid mechanic that makes tank silent and invisible. And it’s not rare since a lot of people noticed it.
Finally, I’ll tell you that you can stop being crybaby and delete your comment, since you bring nothing of value.
Really? i just got premium for the first time but even before then never had problem with silver lions. And I even always forget to use boosters and they expire… But I also never rushed to next BR bracket, reaserched full line up first so im not the one ***** that single spawns. which meant i got enough crew xp and SL for crew training and then some.
The Spotting bug after the patch was the best thing to happen to this game for some days lol
What patch
Hit top tier and we will talk.
esport yea right!
got hit multiple times from 2150 meters away, I kept looking at the direction shots were coming from, but enemy tank was not visible, open country with no cover but still could not see enemy tank… confirmed this in replay. This has to be fixed.
This problem also exists in naval battles, where you will find torpedo boats and frigates disappearing into thin air at a distance of perhaps 5KM. They will suddenly appear when you aim at them, disappear a few seconds after you move the camera away, and you will lose the lock.
That garbage called EAC and BE needs to be ditched as it stops nothing but destroys the gameplay for normal people. Gaijin needs to create their own anticheat like Ricochet or VAC. Even the system like overwatch in CS would be a good starting point.
Doubt they have any interest in actually stamping out cheating, they only want the appearance of it.
Cheaters are likely their most profitable user groups. Most of the ones I’ve caught had multiple premium vehicles, probably rushing to get to top tier. Tons of them wallhacking right now, especially when most of the US is asleep.
