Thanks for the replies. I had a lightswitch moment when some goons got onto mumble and started climbing, I was like wtf how because I was losing speed from 350kmh but I kept at it and stabilized at 270ish. I didn't realise that would happen, I thought speed down meant I'd eventually stall at that angle.

That's pretty much exactly it. Higher BR just means they play with bigger threats while having bigger guns and/or armor. The Soviets found near perfection for that era of warfare in the T-34 and quickly realized it, so they just churned out more with what improvements they could make.

Yeah, the AAA can be really bullshit at times, ranging from being completely ineffective to somehow sniping your pilot from 3-5km away with the first hit.

Among the 76 mm tanks:
The most important differences are reinforcement of the MG and driver armor, faster reload on the 1942, and reduction of a weakspot on early models where the upper and lower front plates meet. The 1940 version is also stuck with the crappier BR-350A ammo.

It's almost reliably so. In AB I've regularly seen dudes getting to the airfield unopposed get wrecked by AAA. It's happened to me even. Still sometimes they pull that bullshit and sometimes 20+ of them watch one plane execute them serially.

I've killed so many dumb fuckers who think I fly like a BF110 or that don't think I can reach them out to 1.2km and fly straight to get away from me. It's flight model is also wonky right now with a redline higher than a P-51D, compresses at 650kph IAS though.

I think the people who cry "the A13 is a bad tank" are the bad ones. It is vulnerable and needs spalling crewshots to get things done, the side armour is only visual but only bad luck and bad decisions keep you from doing well. Slotted it with the Britcat and faced T34s with great success, topping the scores against all but two T34 squadders on the other team. Brit tanks will be alright if you are alright.

Then I head out for BTD grinding towards the P38L and who taps me for killstealking his ground targets if not a lawnmoving XP38G :smith:

So what happened to the enviromental destruction that was to be implemented into the Berlin Ground Forces map in this patch. Did it actually make it and does it do the previews justice? I haven't ended up on the Reichstag map since the patch hit, and also am not playing that much ground forces anymore since said patch anyway... but I'd still love to get some info on how that feature turned out.

I blew up an empty ruined building by dropping an artillery strike near it! It didn't change game much. That's my environmental destruction story.

It really does drive like a fat stiff BT-7, real kind about hitting top speeds in mere seconds no matter the ground conditions, turns and corners like a pain in the rear end (BT-7) but will speedcap once you learn it, hits hard enough to murder T34 and above when you learn how to aim and position yourself. I have no problem taking it up into 3.7 and beyond matches scoring kills to take me into a plane.

e: if the Android app is correct it'll go for 400GE when the regular tree is out, that and 15 days of premium makes an acceptable deal, I wanted premium and to prepare with a brit-tree grinder.

I haven't bought one to play in actual gameplay, but I messed with it in the test course. The A13 has an incredible gun on it and takes off like a rocket, it just doesn't turn very well and has 1.7 BR armor. In short it's not a sports car like the BT-7, it's a drag racer.

It also hits like a freight train. It's AP slug will tear through Panther side armor with ease. I'm not terribly knowledgeable about British armor at the time but from the sample we got it seems that British tanks are gonna be a nightmare for Gaijin to balance since they seem to have crazy-powerful guns on them as a standard feature.

I'm tired of following my dreams, I'm just gonna ask where they're goin' and meet up with 'em there.

I really hate the IS-2, it's awful for my playstyle of rushing the flanks and no matter how you point it your opponents have really obvious flat armor to shoot at. Would I be better off just skipping it now that I've got the T-44 and the T-34-100 unlocked? Leary about having to fight post-war tanks.

I think I'm done with this game for a while.

I've played about 20 matches since the 1.53 patch and the breakdown is as follows.

~2 I've played to the end successfully with no issues.
~4 I've had no connection issues, but FPS will go from 40-50's to single digits on and off for the rest of the match.
All of the rest have been 999 ping after ~30 seconds and I get booted 4-5 minutes into the match.

I so wanted to blow up rocket tanks.
