underhook 110 Report post Posted May 21, 2014 Just played my 1st game of simulator tank battle. 22 hits for 1 kill assist. Makes me think I might have been shooting my team mates :) How do we know if the tank in front of us is our team mate or the enemy?

If it shoots at you it's prolly the enemy :) in SB, teamates have their name above the tank, enemies have not and learn the silhouettes of what you're facing, that helps when in doubt.

Cujo666 134 Report post Posted May 21, 2014 If it's a grey or a German tank type..it's German. If it's Greenish, or a Russian tank type, it's Russian. The types are easy to recognize after a few games. :) Also, Germans tend to be heading 1 direction, while Russians are heading the opposite way, but best bet is play a couple of games and you'll have no trouble recognizing 1 from the other.

underhook 110 Report post Posted May 21, 2014 Ahhhh! So the tank types arnt mixed like the planes are? So its Germans on one side and Russians on the other? Also, I noticed some AI tanks. Do friendly AI tanks also have names above the tank? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do friendly AI tanks also have names above the tank? Yeah, it's Germans vs USSR. Only time you'll have players from the same nation on both teams is in Arcade. This goes for both planes and tanks. AI tanks don't get names, but a small blue icon will appear above them as you get close enough (same distance as you can see allied players names).
