This is an older video, but this problem still exist (hence why me making this thread, im too lazy to edit another clip)
I noticed this also happening in ARB when the marker doesn’t show up
I’m also assuming this issue exists from the perspective of tanks as well, since when i play SPAA, often i don’t see a plane diving on me until he shoots
This happens indifferent of graphic settings (either low, high, 4k whatever) and i believe this issue has been going on for at least 5 years
Oh, it’s a real bug… Good to know all this time I wasn’t going crazy
all thanks to the “keen vision” useless skill…
Theres a plane 100m past your detection skill? Better luck next time…
There’s a tank on the otherside of that small house revving it’s engine? You didnt heard it because of keen vision bullshit? Better upgrade it ASAP even if you have tons of skills on 5 crew members to upgrade before bother with it!
There’s a plane 10km from you and it’s detected by a friendly? You see it fairly clearly until he’s not spotted anymore by said friendly and it fucking dissapear from your screen!
I HATE THIS!
If I can see something with my bare eyes 20km away, let me see it!
If I can hear friendly tanks 400m behind me but you prevent me to hear an enemy one 30m away from me because of an artificial spotting mechanic you’re disgusting.
How many times did I die to some dudes either invisibles and/or completely silent in a corner I already checked before moving just to get killed right when I move…
Infuriating…
I’m aware of the Keen Vision “mechanic”, but i believe this is different.
The Griffon in the video had a max level pilot and the first clip, the Me262 is within 1km distance and his engine can be heard, you can see his vapors and he renders when zooming in.
The second clip, the enemy planes are well over 5km distance and they only de-render at a certain camera angle
Yes I know, but I’m 95% sure it’s related to keen vision being bugged.
This whole skill should be deleted from the game and every player/vehicle should be rendered in at all times no matter how far it is, you got eyes to see it? Good…
Not that shitty pay to get more render distance shit mechanic.
I’d say report it, but Gaijin is to busy retexturing a copy and paste vehicle for the next big bug filled update!
This is icing on the cake.
Oh hey, more footage:
Make a bug report, im sure they will fix it in 3 years time
One comment says this has being going for the past 2 updates which is funny to me, since the video i posted if from 2023
Implementing well known fighters with premiums to grind them brings money, fixing bugs doesn’t
Would really like to hear others opinion on this.
Three times today I have been killed by a jet that is 6km-8km away yet they are 100% invisible they often don’t appear until 3km-4km, but somehow I can spot a tiny dot 20km+ away.
I will also be tracking a jet and have watched it start to fade and then go 100% invisible and vanish from my screen with my radar tracking a invisible spot in the sky.
Been a off and on issue for a while now but it seems to have increased in how much is occurs, a lvl 75 expert crew doesn’t seem to be any different than a lvl 1 basic crew in terms of distances or how often this happens.
I don’t think it has anything to do with the crew level or spotting mechanic. I think it’s just a render issue.
I remember a thread from years ago where a guy was playing an SPAA and was strafed by an invisible plane, that only rendered around 500m when he was already pulling up
