When looking at the map before spawning, you can see tank icons. Otherwise you may have to find an available seat somewhere.
If the map just started, then you may have the choice between which tank to get in: If you spawn away from them, look around and you should see the 3 seats icons somewhere (top left in the picture): Once a game start and you spawn at an HQ, make your way to the nearby tank. You can keep track of the remaining ammunition on the right side of the screen.ĭon’t forget that friendly fire is on so if you’re not careful you may be blowing up your teammates, in which case you will see a message saying you killed a friendly unit. There is only one shell at the time in the main gun and it takes a few seconds to reload so always be prepared and in fight, don’t waste any time reloading right after you fired. Never forget to load shells in the main gun. Since we’re talking about the turret movement, here are the controls for the Gunner: You can see that icon in the two pictures above, where the gun is aligned with the body and below were it is slightly turned to the right: There is an icon at the center and bottom of the screen to indicate if the gun is in the same axis as the body or not. You can also become an obstacle if the turret gun hits some buildings or trees.

In case only the Driver and Gunner seats are filled (Periscope being empty), with your view, you can help the driver by guiding him around obstacles. If allies are nearby you can also see their icons: Here is an example of you basic view from that seat: Unlike the Driver you get to zoom in or out (using the Mouse Wheel Up and Down) to get either a global view or a more precise view for long distance shots. The Gunner role requires some skills to move the gun (cannon) and still aim properly while the tank is moving and it requires a bit of coordination with the other roles and the info you have. The Gunner seat is the second to be filled, after the Driver one. It might be a bit counterintuitive but that’s how it works. You need to press W, not S, to get moving. As far as I know, once it’s done, the tank is always on afterwards. Starting the engine is the very first step to getting the tank moving. You can find the controls in options, but here are the default keys for the Driver seat: Gear 4 is for speed, to get to the frontline from spawn or get out of the fight quickly.
Lower gears ( 1-2) and Reverse are great for turning and maneuvering (in fights or going around buildings or narrow roads) while gear 3 can be used for high mobility in a fight on an open field with little relief. Just like in real life, you’ll need to change gear to really get the most of it. You see in which gear the transmission is set at the bottom of your screen, on the right side, between the compass and the seats logo. The gears are : 4– 3– 2– 1– Park- Reverse
#Hell let loose tanks manual#
Yup, knowing and understanding how a manual transmission work an help you a bit. The second reason is the Tank transmission is a manual one. That’s all you get to see and it’s the only seat from which you can’t zoom or slightly change the angle. While there is an interdependence between the roles to effectively maneuver the tank and engage the enemy, there are two main reasons why the Driver role requires skills (and practice). The first seat being filled in an empty tank, the Driver seat requires the most skills.
