I've picked this game up after a 4 year absence and it's been very challenging breaking the bad habits instilled by WoT. That said , what the hell are you supposed to do if you spawn on the south side of Kursk? I just watched my team get its poo poo pushed in and I honestly don't even know what they could have done differently.

The APHE round for the French 37mm has a 25mm fuse, the round has 13mm of penetration.

You might be able to address that with map redesigns, but aren't there huge swaths of BR where there aren't any Infantry vehicles at all?

If you convert a 3 inch naval gun to metric, it's 76.2mm. That's part of why 75/76 was such a popular caliber. Often when you saw a certain caliber get really widespread adoption it would be due to a specific gun being licensed out. I think that was the case with 37mm, a lot of people licensed an, I believe, French 37mm gun.

I tried Air RB, I'm really loving bad at planes. No matter what I do, I just kind of wallow around helplessly and then die. Which is confusing because I used to play flight sims all the time and I was never this bad. I do a bit better in RB with my A-36 than my XP-38G though, so maybe the P-38 just doesn't suit me.

The T-34 is a good tank, especially at that BR. Out of curiosity though, where do you typically try shooting them?

Madurai posted:The 76 will do it pretty reliably from under 1000m, even with the APHE. Yeah, the APCBC (M61, I think?) shell will go through the upper front plate of a Tiger pretty reliably at close range. So long as they're not too angled. (A rare problem) The trick is to resist the urge to shoot at the MG or driver's port. Shoot the flat, smooth surface between them.

Yeah, that's how SARH missiles (not just early ones) function. You have to lock the target and then maintain the lock for the missile to guide on. I would assume that's how they'll function in-game, otherwise how do they distinguish AMRAAMs when they add them?

They could fill out the rest of the Century-series. F-101, 102 and 106. Then you could get some carrier-based attack aircraft, the A-3, A-5 and A-6. Comedy option (which would actually be cool af), B-58 Hustler.

I still think the way to fix BR compression is to insert a new BR in middle of the current spread. So you'd be looking at something like this: 4.0 -> 4.3 -> 4.5 -> 4.7 -> 5.0 I think if you combine that with the idea somebody posted about tightening the BR spread for matches, you could really improve balance. Maybe instead of 0.7 though, make it 0.8. Then a 4.0 could see up to 4.7, a 4.5 up to 5.3 and a 4.7 up to 5.5.

The ASU-85 is fine. Decently mobile, the HEAT-FS round is pretty effective, has scouting ability. It's not great, but it's definitely workable.

Raenir Salazar posted:I'm debating giving in and paying whatever amount of money to have enough currency to buy the IS-3, BMP-1, T-54 (1949) etc for the 7.0+ BR; I just keep having games with my 6.3 to 6.7 vehicles where I just die without getting anyone while in 4.0 I can get 4-5 pretty easily. This is not a good idea, btw. If you're struggling at 6.3-6.7, 7.0 is going to be worse. When I started getting up in that I found I had to learn a little patience and stop trying to lone wolf as much. Born in Bexhill posted:So i want to start researching tier 2 Swedish tanks but I can’t because I need to purchase one more tank at tier 1. The problem is that there is nothing left to buy except the premium tank that costs golden eagles and spending those isn’t something I want to. So am I stuck? Do I have to give gaijan money? There's something you must have unlocked without buying, go through the research tree very carefully and double check. You shouldn't ever have to buy a premium to progress the tree like that.

I usually don't bring nearly that many, but something I do that I think might be a good idea for others, I set Smoke as my default shell. That way I start with one loaded and I can punch 2 so that my primary damage dealing round loads after I fire it, when I don't need to keep flinging smoke that is. On the Churchill Mk 1, once I got the smoke shell that's literally all I carry in the hull-mounted 76mm gun.

On the F2 you should be using the default round, the PzGr 39. If you're using that round you really shouldn't have to lineup anything "perfectly". You should be one-shotting most of the stuff you face. Any chance you're getting unlucky and optics/hatches/etc are eating the rounds?
