World of Uninstall I'm never playing again...... Re-instaling.

Trying to play arty in a city map is just the most miserable experience. You have razor-thin avenues of fire, or else you're trying to TD-mode, which doesn't work. Why do they even put arty in city maps? They're next to useless.

Let me introduce you to the Hummel.

It doesn't though. You'll either miss or not do enough damage to kill them, and then they have the easiest time killing you.

Well, I didn't say you could go toe to toe with heavies or shrug off shells, you have to use its speed advantage to sneak around behind while the enemy attention is elsewhere. I recall fucking an Obj 704 up the ass with the Hummel on Fisherman's Bay, and that map you don't even need to go TD mode on. I just did it for the fuck of it because the Hummel is a better TD than it is an arty most games due to RNG.

Generally my strategy on city maps is:

1. Find a key alley and set up behind our heavies
2. Wait for enemy tanks to roll up
3. Shoot one of our heavies in the ass
4. Rage

Bought the Type 59... 7 hours later, no Type 59... sigh :wargaming:

Same. Most displeased.

Eh? 24th August is the start date for availability

Availability on the 'merican server is now.

Went to sleep, woke up, Type 59 in garage. Yay.

Still tempted to pick up a Type 62, even if just for trollolol factor.

Confirming that my KV-2 got butt-raped by a pack of rapid Type 62, but I also managed to drop a derp on one.

Mk.1 or bust. Mk.2 for mechwarrior online.


About Type 62:

Matchmaking has either been very favorable to me or it is set to put it lower than the other high tier light tanks. Almost all of my battles have been tier 7, even some tier 6 with me at the top. I have had tier 8,9, and 10 battles in it, but usually 1 out of every 5 battles will be that. Could just be unusual luck but I don't get that kind of luck in my vk2801 so I'm thinking it's not.

As for performance, it really is type 59 at tier 6. It uses ammo rack for armor but it's covered in bouncitanium. I've bounced the long 88 from tigers about 100m from me, and it has enough HP to take a few hits. It's a bit slow but it accelerates and maneuvers well. Gun pens well and has high alpha for a light tank, reloads quickly too. I'm thoroughly enjoying it. It makes credits and is fun.

Type 62 MM balancing looks this:

Someone should skin the T62 to be a rickshaw

i have a T-28 but i do not rate it's armor plate to protect me from hate and the gun gives a spate of "did not penetrate". how do i conflate my K to D rate and make my foes appreciate the way my shells detonate?

  Spoiler:

I have a Russian T-28 medium and don't know how to play it, most matches result in me driving around, perhaps getting a couple of non-penetrating hits before exploding to one or two hits. Any tips?

i have a t-28 and now by the time that they shoot it's too late i've already displaced and unloaded my hate into their rear grate, making their engines conflagrate.

  Spoiler:

I've been trying to avoid direct battle with my T-28, focussing on being a highly mobile sniper pinging away but moving as soon as they start swinging around to rape me. Oh and I've had a lot of success just hanging behind the heavys and blapping the flanking light tanks. But seriously, fuck ELC AMX's

7 kills on this one, ran out of shells and ended up with a tiger P at half hp that i had to bounce until a tiger could make it half-way around the map to finish him off (the other survivor from my team)

I _love_ this thing
