Tier 6 also dies in two or three shots, even one if was a lucky shot (broadside on an American heavy anyone?)[/QUOTE]
T1 and M6 are the only tanks I avoid in the KV because those fuckers will just eat your shots with their bullshit hitboxes(tracked one by shooting it in the turret with AP) and then they hunt you down while you are reloading.
The key to playing trollV is really to always have support at hand and to always at least try to retreat to cover/friends after every shot. At least, that's why I think I'm so successful.

ftfy
Zipping around in a T-50 last night, just went to slip past a friendly KV5 uphill when I got insta killed.
Realised there was a T28 tank destroyer at the top of the hill. Feel like I just jumped infront of a bullet for the KV5, or at least saved him a bit of a repair bill.
[QUOTE=MendozaMan;34476477]IS-1's are rediculously easy to kill with a sideshot from one of those, it takes off 70% of their health!
All tier 1-4 tanks die in one shot. Tier 5 usually two or one. Tier 6 also dies in two or three shots, even one if was a lucky shot (broadside on an American heavy anyone?), tier 7 takes a LOT of damage in most cases, tier 8 and up get hurt moderate amounts.
ALL french tanks take rediculous damage from 152's, they usually die in one shot.
The only tanks in the game that takes next to no damage from a 152 is the T-59, and the real russian mediums like the T-44 and T-54. Never engage them on your own as you will lose.[/QUOTE]
I have done about 1000 dmg to a T59 in my KV152 and so with some T-44's.
You just have to watch out and not hit the tracks.
TrollKVs and SU-152-ML/10s are scary in my Lorraine :<
I've gotten 900-1000 damage hit several times by those frontally
My panther II just got set on fire by a frontal shot from an AMX12t :|
The shot went right through the very edge that joins my frontal to my under armour. How in the flip.
Also nub team with an IS3 that was cowering around a corner from medium tanks :(
So what tanks are best with HE shells besides arty?
The only ones I know of are the following: KV, Hetzer, SU-152, (ISU-152?) and the Jumbo Sherman. Are there any more than that?

I can figure that out, I just wanted to know which specific tanks are best with HE.

I'm not arsed how i caught fire, I'm more bothered by the fact I got penned by a shitty gun on what is basically a knife edge corner.

Not a shitty gun at all, I've taken out tanks several tiers above my 12t.
Panther II has imaginary armor. AMX 12t has an incredible gun. Go figure.

NO
having some issues. I've figured out Fmod and shit like that, problem is, it won't compile the original files back into a new .fsb (it errors out, something about the source files not being correct file types. they are ADPCM, which means they won't play through a common media player, even though i have the fucking codecs), so I can't do a simple file swap.
I converted all the default files to a playable wav type, it compiles correctly, but ingame vehicles have no sound.
Problem two; I did the more complicated way, creating a new .FEV file with Fmod. Trouble is, I don't know what sounds are tied to what events for default wot. So I could be assigning sounds to completely the wrong events.
Haven't given up, but I need to talk with the people who made those weapon/hit sounds
[QUOTE=NoDachi;34477615]Several?[/QUOTE]
More than two but not many.

From the sides and rear perhaps but I've never pen an angle like that with the amx12t gun. Wouldn't be so easy to pen that kind of angle with a higher tier gun..
why doesn't WG change the frontal gearbox of german tanks to an engine component that can be damaged/destroyed but not cause fires??

It's "planned" to be done in the future
[editline]31st January 2012[/editline]
As in separating transmission and engine

Because Wargayming
Can somebody explain to me how comes that I always get set on fire with NO module damaged?
It happens particularly often in my AMX13 75.
Players with the biggest mouths in this game are always the worst players.

What about 7.2 they promised us to be out in the end of february?
God dammit. Just unlocked the AMX-13-90, tried to send crew back to barracks to buy the 1390 and retrain them, accidentally dismissed them all.

Did you forget about Wargaming Time
[editline]31st January 2012[/editline]
No but seriously 7.2 doesn't count as an event or special, it's separate from those
It's supposed to get on supertest this week and public test 1-2 weeks from now, with release at end of feb
