You mean playing flat doesn’t happen ? I played in VR.
There is a bug report:
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/suJcWwuKVSjb
No, just wondering how VR mode works in WT, and your screenshot like on a sphere so i think it might be VR
War thunder in VR works like in almost every SIM, it’s wonderfull, you are in the cockpit, headtracking is 1:1, and you control the plane the same thing than in flat, with HOTAS or keyboard/mouse, except for the planes that have HMS, you control that with your head.
The UI is the same than in flat, that’s sad, we could have things like the map in a kneeboard, and other thins more diegetic.

Honestly, I don’t see this as a problem. There is nothing they can do to enforce their imaginary rules.
Dealing with them is very simple. The air defense systems in the game can’t attack targets above 5000 meters, so they can simply launch attacks from outside the air defense system’s range. Now that we’ve got the I-HAWK, why not plug the gap?
Regarding the issue of “PvE” and “zomber”, what I can’t forgive the most is that they flock to SB in huge numbers every time there is an event.
And they justify their selfish opinion that “it doesn’t matter if SB, which I’m not usually interested in, collapses, if it’s for their own purposes” with the power of numbers.
It’s true that the number of SB players is extremely small compared to other places, and I think that we are definitely a minority when viewed from the perspective of the entire player base. But we definitely exist.
There are many friends who think that SB is their place and are working passionately on it.
But to them, we are not even recognized, or even if we do, we are insignificant beings that can be crushed.
The history of this problem is long, and SB has been a target of abuse throughout the ages, starting with Be6, even before the appearance of modern jet planes.
SB is no longer the stage for serious competition that we want, but is treated with contempt as a convenient “tool” for outsiders.
I have been staring at this situation for many years and have always wondered, “What on earth is our existence?”
I am not fluent in English, so I apologize if the translation is poor.
Bombing and PvE (not asking others to pve) is not abuse. Simulator mode isn’t PvP only and PvE isn’t against the rule.
When there is event, people will choose the fastest way to complete it. So if you want no bombers in sim, you should ask gaijin to increase the score and reward of RB and AB.

Brother, the game master up above literally said it is. If you want a PvE only lobby and get abusing against players who are PvEing then you are breaking ToS.
Not quite.
What @_ - said is basically correct: It’s not forbidden to bomb and PVE per se.
If I for example fly a Buccaneer S.1, I can’t even do anything else: I bomb targets, while trying not to get caught by the enemy fighters. But also If I fly something that can defend itself, it’s nothing wrong with bombing a target, return to base, reload, take off and bomb another target, all the time evading confrontation with the enemy (smart move actually for a bomber/attacker).
But: As soon as you start advertising it as a PVE match, and in any way harass players not “playing from your score sheet”, then we have a problem . And then we take actions.
What’s already problematic is:
- Call a match a PVE match
- Communicate to the other team about players doing PVP (who they are, where they are, how they’re equipped,…)
- Attack PVP players verbally or in any other way abuse them, slander them
- TK’ing PVP players
- …
And of course any automation (botting) is a clear no go and will be punished severely.

Oh my misunderstanding then, I misread it as you cant in trouble for making it PvE and complain when people PvP. My bad.
For best results: Have the in-browser map open on another screen or device, with a browser addon/extension that automatically translates text. =D

What about players who only attack airfields, die to the AAA and repeat. And sometimes, if you are about to intercept them they “J” out so you don’t get the kill and then laugh about it in chat.
How should you deal with these players? And it’s more common that thing like this happen when there is an ‘grind’ event going.
How do we report behaviour like this with the ingame reporting/complaining system and what actions are taken afterwards to prevent this?

-Find the airfield that they keep bombing.
-Shoot them down and see if they still go to the same airfield.
-Locate the airfield they take off from.
-Camp and swap to other airfields when needed.
I did this in the Su25SM3. Some guy in a Mirace F1C kept spamming our airfield.
I waited for him to finish his run, and then i kept sending KH38MTs straight at the runway he was spawning at.
Killed him 6 times, 4 times with KH38s , and two times with R73s.

oooh… Never thought to use AGMs to spawn camp them… Hmmm… You ahve given me evil ideas, not that Britain really has anything like the Su-25SM3… hmm…
AJ168 Martel or whatever its named? Cant that thing lock planes?
Speaking of AGMs, SU25T with VIKHRs and KH25 is one of my favourites. 18 ATGMs which have very decent A-A capability .
I forgot about the Martels. Maybe? Im not sure , it’s reliant only on the TV sight of the missile.
Well most AGMs that use TV/IR can lock onto planes, maybe the Martel is the same?
I’ll have to try it at some point, but the Buc has very limited Hardpoint capacity. Its 3x Martels and nothing else and then I can trade 1x Martel for 1x Aim-9L up to a max of 2x Aim-9Ls. So not the strongest for spawn killing. Maybe I need to try the Tornado gr1 with PGMs for that tactic. But unlike the KH-38s. They are both very slow missiles
