[QUOTE=zzzz;34271322]Does it matter on a tank where you aim when you shoot at one? If so, what is the best place to aim[/QUOTE]
Well with most tanks it goes lower hull, turret hatch, drivers viewport, gun, sides and rear and with a couple few it's the front guard of the tracks or the turret front and sides.

after a while you learn where the the best spots to shoot any specific tank are.
PzII match and the top tanks on both teams are two arties each.
Also am I the only one that constantly runs into that one rock on hills that have a bush infront of it?

I constantly run into rocks that have the same texture as the ground they're sitting on.
First 5 battles in the amx50 100.
Worst teams I've ever played with. Its like a cascade of idiot teams. 0% win rate.

Never had problems with other rocks except that one, and it gets me every fucking time, well that and fucking downward hills that looks like they are going somewhere but they don't.

shoot the turret
i pen it every time
Normally when I'm close enough,I tend to shoot the commander cupola
But when it's far is hard to find somewhere to pen

Lower hull and commanders cupola, think there is one more spot but I can't remember.
I bought the M1 heavy today. 3rd match in, I'm shoved into a tier <5 match against 6 KVs. Good god. It wasn't a match. It was a complete slaughter. I have trouble killing KVs at the best of times, now you want to put me against 6 of them?

Macro bans make sense when it's just the macro, replying at what somebody else said, and the post itself has no value without it. He used a highly relevant picture to go with his post which itself is quite interesting even without it.

Check the rules link at the bottom there. You're not exempt from the image macro rule if you include additional text in the post and it doesn't matter if its relevant. Over-used image macros aren't allowed.

Headlights are 100mm
Turret front, to the side of the gun mantle (the mantle is like 300mm or some crazy shit) is 120mm
His usage of that macro is neither irrelevant or harmful to any discourse occurring.
It's funny, it isn't trolling or flaming and it isn't irrelevant.
Frankly that's the worst ban I've ever seen.
Also got a 13/90 but the stock gun sheeeesh

Nice automerge breaking
I wonder if it would have been a ban if the image didn't have "Critical hit" text on it? Would it still have been a image macro? Image macros are annoying because of the dumb text they usually contain, this picture was completely relevant to his post, and didnt have any provoking dumb text on it. Bad ban imo.

Yeah I kind of want to know if that would have been bannable without the text. Not just specifically in this case, but also generally across Facepunch.

Hello postal can we have a ruling on this please?
Updating after a huge break. I'll probably play a round in each of my tanks, and then yet again realise why I stopped playing. This process repeated ad infinitum sums up WoT for me.
Didn't garry say that gifs used in that manner was perfectly fine?
Like ages ago.
Because I always do it, and I've never been banned for it.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;34253653]They share the gun so their ability to deal damage is same, while KV-1S has mobility and KV-3 armor. The armor of both is insufficient in high tier battles, but the speed of both doesn't make either of them capable of reliable dodging.
Simply put - KV-3 can take punishment in low tier battles, where only few tanks can really hurt it, while KV-1S is more viable in top tier matches, because you get at least a bit of speed which you can use for tactical advantage, while armor would be useless.
I think it wholly depends on your luck and into which matches you get.

1v1 KV-3 vs KV-1S, as long as the KV3 is good and angles, the KV-1S doesn't have much of a chance, other than a desperate circling attempt.[/QUOTE]
Sorry for the ultra timewarp but yeah KV-1S vs KV-3 1v1 is really easy. You can get the jump on the slow fucker anytime you want, go back, reload, and fly out again. Same gun = same damage to each other in %. The KV-1S's turret is pretty magic too anyway, gotten a few steel walls I believe with it.
Is it just me or are french tanks some kind magnets for kids with down-syndrome, i have no idea why but i feel like i'm getting throw into teams with players that have been officially certified as retards by the ukrainian government.

I'm sure if you followed the rules to the letter, half the people in LMAO pics would be banned. It's just a forum. On the Internet.

It's generally not worth fighting the rules on Facepunch, I rarely see them consistently enforced.
