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

I find when traversing both my turret and hull the server and client crosshair desync to fuckville

[Dirk Magnum]

Somehow managed to pull less than 600 XP on a double in my IS. Zero damage penetrating hits

another vidya
here you can see me dieing like a bad to an E-75 due to my terrible driving skills

nice vid, but how the fucking fuck do you play without server crosshair??

Never used it and my 88% approve of this.

Odd, for me with hull traverse the server is faster than the client crosshair, and the opposite with turret traverse.

FUcking 12t so shit, 13-75 better be worth it.

Are you bad or something?

No? I don't think I'm that bad. I have all the upgrades and the poor tank just gets shit on. I mean, I know I'm paper thin and not supposed to "scout" but no matter how i try to roll it, It dies horible while inflicting 200dmg. Maybe I just had really shit teams yesterday.

Here's a step by step for a generic map, it's best to pick a side that has lots of alternate routes to get around behind people (e.g. cities). You're kind of SOL in large open maps like campnovika, although I've had good luck using the 12t and 13 75 to intercept fast scouts in situations like that.

1) stay behind your team. While learning I suggest you literally make a full circuit around your cap circle 3 times before doing anything else, watch your minimap the entire time to see how the battle lines draw out.

2) Once you've done that, both teams should be pretty well engaged with each other (if they aren't, drive a few more circles). Look on your minimap (make it a few notches bigger with the + button) for a cluster of enemy tanks playing peek-a-boo with your tanks in a spot where you can circle around to the side/behind it. Don't be afraid to ask your team to pull back a little if it makes sense.

3) Once you've circled around behind the enemy tanks, dump shells into one (I highly recommend running a weakpoint skin for a few games to learn where peoples modules are from the back). gtfo as soon as someone starts swiveling a turret at you. Press c to reload as you're retreating.

Note that while I'm basically saying "just flank the other team", and you're probably thinking "well duh, any tank does well if it gets behind another tank", it's slightly different with the drum magazine tanks. If you're in a normal tank and flank someone, you basically get one to two shots max, and then all your travel time is wasted as they swivel their front around and start aiming at you. With one of the drum magazine tanks you can generally unload at least 4-5 shots before someone points at you. By the time they face you you probably need to reload anyway, but since your reload time is 14+ seconds you might as well spend that time running away. with a normal tank there's a lot more "wasted" time as you would have been running away with a shell loaded and ready to fire with nothing to fire at.

Whats the correct gun to use on the A-20?
Still the 76 w/he ?

[Daco]

I used that in beta after a HE nerf and it wasn't too bad, tbh the A-20 is a bit of a slog though so I don't think it matters too much :\

[VARRAKK]

M103, don't know why ppl dislike it so much.
It's a great tank


+ I drive it like a baws!

[Lusulpher]

People dislike a tank with T32 hull angles, E75 mantlet/cupola bounce, Hetzer rotation, Pershing gun depression[SECOND TURRET]and acceleration, the accuracy of a KT and the wallop of a mule kick to the fucking chin.[ammoracked several IS4s when they angled their tread forward ]
It also PRINTS MONEY.

Baddies.

8 kill game, 3 of those kills are unicum solos.

Defeat
Battle: Erlenberg Sunday, April 08, 2012 12:56:59 AM

I THINK THAT WAS MY FIRST EVER 8KILL GAME
[PraetorNZ] left the channel
Lusulpher*(4/8/2012 1:12:59 AM)*and I had to kill 3 57% players who were purple on stat mod :3

Toolbox, Rammer, vents
Crew only has Repair trained partially.

It's only weakspots are it's sides[hull and turret], and engine[all American engines burn from 2 hits]...HE splash from arty damages rack on left side.

I sold my E75 to pimp this cashbox/solo dominator out.

lol how do I drive the patton

Also.
Am I
A) Bad with the 105
or
B) Can you just not hit things with it at ~300m

[Lusulpher]

Patton is best played like a French tank tbh. An exposed Patton is a dead one.[E50 and T54 had armour, you don't, dealwitit]

The rest snipe vanguards, then leave, they snipe their own cap and then leave, the rest passive spot blobs for arty.[decent camo IF NO SHOOTEYSHOOT]
That gun is pretty OP[400dmg every 7 secs! OUCH MOFO OUCH], but your hull is SHIT[they buffed your turret bounce btw]

If you have S.reticule on, you should be aiming at least a quarter length ahead of all moving targets.
American muzzle velocity ingame is BALLS.

Other than that be alive harrassing the enemy team from behind, and you will win like Farva1 and Agentice, who both use theirs to pad their WRs back to 60%.

[Lusulpher]

types are faggot wagons

Part of the reason i bought one. Endless credits ( i can make 1mil in 3 hours easy), and the amount of rage it induces since im actually a good tanker is hilarious. It seems that Types are mainly used by fuckin roo's m8, so when a good tanker usea one to trololol, rage factor increases 10 fold.

One of my Jedi[no longer padawan ] gifted me a TYfi5hter on his way to the [ANVIL] side...


Pros:
Armour of a T9.
Accuracy of T8 HVY.[no-scope tanks at 300m, pen E50 while he zerocrits my tread looooool]
Speed of a T9 med.[55kmph top speed! Acceleration BETTER THAN PERSHING]
Top 5 tank-tiering usually! Can kill KV-1/2s for Kills, or single T9s for XP/cash. Only 10% of my games were risky at all.
Makes 50% more cash than my wins, when I lose...
GREAT CAMO
GREAT PROFILE[fence-high tank = awesome raid/evades]

Cons:
Bad acceleration.[Pershing-class accel is still shit, I guess]
Ammorack frail ON ONE SIDE OF HULL.[the right side]
Dmg of a Pershing, yuck.[tickle me elmo]


Conclusion:
FUCKING OP TANK. Liars. Lying, filthy, scummy liars. If you have low stats in the Ty59, I feel sorry for you. You couldn't drive your own fist into your opposing hand.

-Upload of me bouncing the top 2 enemy tanks, an AMX 50100 and an IS3 with little effort-

Also got an IS7 same week...Soviet Victor.
I had 100% WR after 5 games, and 97% accuracy while sniping T-50-2s @ 200m and on top of Mines...and drove ahead into several games undamaged for 5 mins before arty realized they'd lost a t11 and T9s to me...
Nope, no bias here.

I've put everything on the view range on the move, dance on the edge and make them suffer. 6th sense is very handy for this kind of work. If you are spotted, pull back and try again/switch sides.

Once they are thinned out you start with supporting/flanking. It is not fastest tank around but it is adequate.

Gun kicks like a mule, I keep getting amazed at damage I get out of it.

I don't see where your hitting at range problems come from.

I think my hitting at range issues come from me forgetting its not the 90mm on the pershing which I was able to long range snipe blokes all day with.

I need to play it more.
And get used to it more.

[filingo]

i've never had any problems with my patton accuracy

i do have vents, stab, smooth ride and the accuracy while turning the turret skill tho

[PraetorNZ]

patton is still by far my fav tank. i go back and play it when i get mad with my other tanks and just roll round raping things with its far too good gun and gun depression

[Qui Shon]

For me, in half the games Patton hits everything on the move at reasonable distances. In the other half, it can't hit a fucking thing even when fully aimed, at anything past 100m, and I can right up forget about 300m shots.

Out of interest, how much time you have with Russian guns? Once you figure out how to hit long range in those, you are golden (152mm KV sniper best sniper)

Patton is fucking boss m8. Once you get 100% crew, I've never had a problem hitting anything. You have to let it zero in though, some times snap-shots go awry. Play it kinda like a mobile T29 and it just rapes. Actually, play it like anything and it rapes. No one focuses on it either, and you can pump out tons of damage. I only have vents/rammer/stab on it, and I usually steam roll. When i don't it's due to [Lol MM bad team] or [Fuck i did something dumb].
