💥 Crash Course: Bombers / War Thunder

Just as with strike aircraft, there are many different kinds of bombers in War Thunder. But this time the differences are even more... striking (sorry!). The machines of this type are divided into two big groups: tactical, or frontline, bombers... and strategic bombers, and these are vastly different.

"Let Allie fighters climb to meet you" yea that would require team play

[stewie]

Me: Can I have a fighter escort
Team: piss off
Team: what does J do?
Team: Alt-F4 for fighter escort
Team: tips for p40?
Team: when does capture win time bombers?
Team: きせりく

You cant use bombers pass tier 3, the fighters climb better and faster than you. Bombers need a more high spawn point or they become useless

[cloroxbleach]

Mistake #6: Thinking you can survive grinding past Tier II bombers

[cerephus]

"Ask your random teammates for help."
Been there, done that. It doesn't work, considering the majority of players play for their own agenda.

[thenoobinator]

You have
1. Useless bombers
2. Boring bombers
3. Meme bombers

[DaSpineLessFish]

You know the funny thing is so many problems in RB air would be fixed by introducing a fixed version of Enduring Confrontation

[lLauffeueR]

Gaijin, the repair costs are absurdly expensive!!! Please, put down these costs!!!

Crash Course: Bombers, Short Edition.

Don't play bombers after cannon buff.

See you next time.

“You have 4 ways of defending yourself”

However, in war thunder we don’t count the last 2. They are out of the question here.

Biggest mistake that people make when playing bombers
mistake number 1: you play a bomber
mistake number 2: you play a bomber
mistake number 3: you play a bomber
mistake number 4: you play a bomber
mistake number 5: you play a bomber

oh whats this? you played a couple games with the B-29 and your out of money?

[keithhall]

Ask your random teammates for help?!
Are you having a laugh??? Literally no one talks and if they do, they’re in no way interested in helping anyone but themselves!

[frenchhonhon]

6:13 given that most players only want to make money and research points, most of them (if not all) will leave the bombers on their own.

Adding an achievement/reward for escorting the bombers would make other players escort the bomber willingly.

[happyguy]

You know what Gaijin, instead of asking for teammates for escort, spawn 2 slightly lower BR AI fighters to escort bombers.
That helps with the "bomber spreading on different targets" situation, helps the game move quicker

[luiscruzbento]

To bad you nerfed rp gains for destroying ground targets with bombers or attackers. Since patch 1.77 gaijin is showing the middle finger to all players that use bombers or attackers, by reducing bomb and rocket damage, lowering rp gains, cannon buff ( this one was actualy a needed change), and now you do a video on how to improve your bomber skills? Your developers have a twisted sense of humor.

“Climb Higher”. If I spawn in at 15, 000 which should be moved to 20, 000, I still have to climb to 23, 000 for some chance of survival and by then the Bf-109 are already above me even though they took off from the Airfield

[AirBajan]

Escorting bombers in war thunder doesn’t

[mentalmans_]

Me: *Loses 0, 01 cm of my wing*
Game: *You have Been killed by:*
*XXX_Insertnam*
*You Will leave your plane in 7 seconds*

[HighCaliberTree]

Looking for "Don't play them" comments is like looking for a haystack on a needle.

[samuelschick]

Gaijin says when doing the bomber get up high where the fighters cannot go. My experience is no matter how high you go the fighters are already there. Pet peeve, when you respawn in a bomber you're lucky if you make it 5 seconds before being shot down since you spawn right in the middle of enemy fighters.
