my 35(t) was awesome in recruit matches. But this 38(t) is tier 3 and it really is just good for recruit matches. But it can't enter those. Kinda sucks. It's slow, weak and only has a little better armor than tank destroyers. I don't recommend it. But it does allow the hetzer unlock later on. Which is kinda nice. [editline]06:11PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Kyle902;23252629]Except these Arty shells are hitting the front armor of my tank and killing me.[/QUOTE] arty shells are like 150mm. Get over it. Just keep on moving and shoot him from close.
Anyone notice how massively expensive premium rounds are? I mean, 2000 credits for a single shell?
Yay I'm the person who loads the game very slowly!
[QUOTE=Orkel;23248756] There is. It's called recruit battles. Only tier 1 and 2 tanks allowed.[/QUOTE] What!? I was planning on getting a Mauser and rampaging through recruit battles screaming spacemarine lines :frown:
Haha no the maus would probably be able to solo an entire recruit team in beginner tanks at once
Hey, does anyone know why my text doesn't display properly?
It's not the arty damage that's fucked up, it's the accuracy and speed of the shells that are retarded. Getting annoyed with this shitty Marder II. Damage is poor and it's slow as fuck. I hope the 76mm is going to help cause right now it sucks.
[QUOTE=Fippe;23252588]Tanks aren't armoured from top, you can blow up a modern T-90 with a mortar shell if it hits the tank.[/QUOTE] Of course they're armored from the top, otherwise they'd have a 100% casualty rate in urban combat. The armor is lighter there, sure, since it's not meant to defend against other tanks or direct fire weapons.

It has awesome armor.

[QUOTE=BuDSpOoNce;23252526]I need someone to convince me to download this, so is it good?[/QUOTE] yes that enough convincing for ya [editline]04:40PM[/editline] [QUOTE=the_killer24;23253135]Anyone notice how massively expensive premium rounds are?

Sold my PzIII to get a sturmpanzer, only to realise i hadn't unlocked it. Finaly got 70k credits again and now i don't know what to buy. Someone suggest me something thats under 100k cost, and doesn't completely fail at doing damage against anything. Wasn't doing too well with a PzIII.
I don't get why they didn't make it so it's German tanks vs Soviet tanks instead of random mix of tanks of each team.
[QUOTE=NotMeh;23253853]I don't get why they didn't make it so it's German tanks vs Soviet tanks instead of random mix of tanks of each team.[/QUOTE] So people can choose whatever tank they want without any real restrictions.
Got myself a key, installing. Would anyone mind teaching me this game?
[QUOTE=Monkey pie;23253910]Got myself a key, installing. Would anyone mind teaching me this game?[/QUOTE] WSAD to move, left mouse to shoot. Right mouse over an enemy to auto-lock. Thats it really.
[QUOTE=nightlord;23253887]So people can choose whatever tank they want without any real restrictions.[/QUOTE] You misunderstood me. You could still pick between German and Soviet tanks but you'll also land on the respective team.
So whats the best first tank to buy then?

I'd go for a medium tank if i had to start over. I just fired 6 rounds into the side of a Medium tank with my Marder II and they all bounced. And they call it a tank destroyer lol.

When you have, it's a really good tank. I often got 2-3 kills a round with that tank!
[QUOTE=kirderf;23254017]That's because you haven't upgraded the gun. When you have, it's a really good tank.

My stats for the PanzerJager where 35 battles and 74 kills, with the Marder I have 27 battles and 9 kills. :gonk:
[QUOTE=Fippe;23252588]Tanks aren't armoured from top, you can blow up a modern T-90 with a mortar shell if it hits the tank.[/QUOTE] Not true. Modern MBTs are armored lightly on the top. A mortar round couldn't scratch a T-90 with its top ERA unless you managed to put in a tandem shaped charge into the thing. Now WWII tanks are a different story.
[QUOTE=Panimala;23252107]Well it wouldnt make any sense to let the British have their own tech tree but like 2 tanks in it. ;)[/QUOTE] British tanks and SPG's, including experimental ones: Vickers 6-Ton Mk.

Unless it's a light tank, a mortar shells won't do much, be it WW2 or 2010. 150mm on the other hand can blow up a heavy tank in one hit if it hits the top.
Whats the distinction between a tank and a tank destroyer?
Got a hetzer :v:
Tank destroyer is indicated as a triangle, light tanks as diamond, Arty tank is a square and medium tanks are diamonds with a diagonal stripe.
[QUOTE=Fergeh;23254244]Whats the distinction between a tank and a tank destroyer?[/QUOTE] Tanks have turrets and are mainly meant to fight openly. Tank destroyers are guns on tracks, meant to kill the above, hence the name Tank [b]Destroyer[/b].
I want to have medium tank but I hate the autocannons on light tanks so I will probably end up choosing marder...
[QUOTE=zenith777;23254413]I want to have medium tank but I hate the autocannons on light tanks so I will probably end up choosing marder...[/QUOTE] You're gonna have a hard time whatever tank you choose in the third tier. You'll be facing tanks from the fourth, fifth and sixth tier (maybe even higher, haven't seen em yet though)
