Anyone else getting duplicates for the 'Spot the Ball' event? Got 2 for Iran...
"YOU GOT A HOLE IN YOUR LEFT WING!" "YOU GOT A HOLE IN YOUR LEFT WING!" "YOU GOT A HOLE IN YOUR LEFT WING!" "YOU GOT A HOLE IN YOUR LEFT WING!" I fucking get it now shut the fuck up already.
My experience of the Vickers MBT so far Game 1: Gun break, forces me to move to cap zone, get killed Game 2: Set on fire from the first shot within the first minute while hull down Game 3: One hit killed by a panther 2 from a shot that should've glanced across my front plate, but somehow just cut right through it. Game 4: One hit killed by a Tiger 2 P which should be an easy kill but my HESH failed on the turret, after spawning my second tank, the same guy killed me again. Game 5: One hit killed as team is over run from that shitty Poland map Not having a great time so far/tonight in general. I survived so much easier, even while stock with the Caernarvon
I kinda need that patch....
Can people who force head ons just fuck off

I have to say the Yak-15P is actually quite enjoyable. So satisfying being able to surprise enemies with your manoeuvrability and then shooting them down with the single 23mm spark cannon.
Woo, summer sale is up! Oh wait, it's just Americans. Fuck that shit
At least the Pz. II H is back on the store
I just bought the Corsair Yesterday Dammit.
Still having a really shit time with the Vickers MBT. Any tips? I feel like if anyone looks at me, I'm dead. I just explode to everything. 6 kills in 16 games, I feel like I'm losing my mind or I'm just being a massive retard. I don't really play it any different to the cent mk10 but just some cunt always manages to catch me off guard or some other cunt suicide rocket spams/bomb spams me and usually me in particular.
You gotta play an ambush play style, you cannot brawl. The first shot you fire MUST kill the gunner OR the cannon breach. Choose a target that is alone if possible. If you are unable to do that, its already game over; knowledge of the enemy you face is going to be your saving grace. I used the MBT like some others here on FP to grind more or less all of my top end British tanks, I even put a talisman on it and its one of my best played tanks in the game.
Is this for arcade or a different gamemode? I find it REALLY hard to ambush anything in arcade.
Sorry i was talking in the context of RB, where you do not have markers. If you are in arcade its anything goes pew pew. The tank is just not useful in AB.
Eh, I really want to like RB but the lack of spawn lives annoys the shit out of me. I'd much prefer it if you had the same 3 lives, like you did in AB. Playing RB solo feels more of a chore than getting through Arcade sometimes, especially when either, you've driven around for 3-4 minutes only to die and be sent straight back to garage without another chance or you spend 5 or more minutes driving around, while the enemy team just folds and if you're lucky you might get 1 or 2 shots off toward someone. Some maps just feel empty in RB
I sure fucked up that ATGM, but he sure fucked up his situational awareness. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/211347/b213a922-1c5f-4833-9991-8bf51b14dbf6/ws9wn_2.mp4
Alright, I had a couple of decent RB games, XP wise. Although typically those were the ones where I could only spawn in one tank due to being locked out of my other vehicles. PERHAPS THIS WILL SUFFICE
Once you get used to RB it's going to be hard time going back to AB because of how awful AB actually is. Just ease into RB, helps if you've got a squad up with proper comms so you can call out targets and cooperate on ambushes or pincer attacks.
I've had great games in RB before with a buddy, I just really struggle by myself. Guess I just need to bash my head at it until I git gud.
Could always ask people on FP if they want to play
Potentially, never see any online though. They may have blocked me by now due to my whiney bullshit. At least people in the IFLAP that is.
Always get to a cap point ASAP, after that you can land a few hits or take a few hits and be able to respawn a AAA and go cap another point. Capping points is a good way of getting RP.
Yeah, I've heard about capping. Last game the guys who got there first were nice enough to wait for my stock ass to catch up and get in the cap zone. I try but not always in the fastest tanks
I play RB pretty much exclusively when using tanks, Arcade is too wonky, so that's where this tank advice is meant for. I'm sure you don't wanna hear it, but I use the Centurion Mk.10 pretty much exclusively for my main, first pick, at that 7.0 BR even if I get uptiered. Sometimes stupid shit will happen and bounce off the turret or hull. Its probably worth it to just bench the Vickers as a 2nd or 3rd respawn. So anyways, Vickers MBT; try not to rush the predictable clusterfuck areas until you've got a grasp of taking it super cautiously around corners and just waiting for a few moments for noise or activity. I use the Vickers as a backup to the Centurion and it generally sucks in comparison, but your saving grace is the super fast reload speed when you max out your crew skills. Be willing to go out in the middle of nowhere or around the flanks of hot-spots as opposed to just driving straight in. You've got a good gun and "good enough" depression. Internalize that "if someone shoots me, I die horribly" train of thought even harder than you would in the Centurion. You have fairly similar mobility (once upgraded, something to work towards), so don't think you can't go to the same map positions if you want or need to. You're just not as fast as the Leopards, Soviet Mediums and stupid light tanks. Move from cover to cover and keep an eye out for places where Bushjews might be hiding. Situational awareness is super duper important and its probably worth it to take a second or two to sit and watch and listen, while in cover or before attacking someone, so that you'll be the one jumping motherfuckers, not vice versa. Remember, your armour won't save you from fucking anything. Wirbelwinds, Ostwinds, Coelians and Kugelblitzes are your worst enemies. Suffer not the German to live. No mercy. With regards to being bombed... well shit, that's just bad luck. Stick near large objects that would cover you from the sky (if you're worried, that is) and remember where the enemy air spawn is so that you can break line of sight from new arrivals.
