Oh hey, so the tier 8. I don't know jack shit about planes, good time to learn.
jets out turning bi-planes calling it now
I liked in IL-2 how the Me-262's engines flamed out and died whenever you pushed on the throttle too fast
shame there's no P-38 in that tree either, those could take hits like a BOSS
I am really hoping they put the Ho 229 in a later branch. I just want to fly that thing so badly.
Only 7k away from the T32.

Depends what tank you're using.
[QUOTE=Bowser_nl;34342856]WarGaming will probably make the premium T34 terrible, either with shit moneymaking or shit combat abilities. A good free tier8 premium won't happen.[/QUOTE]
Knowing WG they will make it shit just to keep up their great record of fucking over the US heavy line. On the other hand, maybe it will be amazing as compensation for dealing a tier 7 tank at tier 9 for so damn long.
[QUOTE=Ogopogo;34345764]Only 7k away from the T32.[/QUOTE]
You can get two free tank slots, a free tier 8 premium, and a free tier 9 TD if you can make it to the T30 before the next patch (unless, delays).
The moment when you are 2k exp away from M26 Pershing, relieved your continuous grinding has paid off... and realize that you are only on 520k Credits...
Was looking to buy the tiger, but now will wait to see if that comes to EU.
Cheap tiger would be spot on right now.

Realize the M26 Pershing is one of the most soul-crippling bad stock tanks.

If I didn't keep selling my tanks, I would also have a Wolverine, Leapord, SturmpanzerII, T57 and a Panzer 38 (t) :v:

What the FUCK is up with the IS-3s side upper side armor (Area between tracks and turret)? Shots look and sound like they penetrate, but not a SINGLE FUCKING ONE of them deal damage.
I swiss cheesed a guys side armor with a full 90mm autoloader clip and dealt exactly zero damage.

You have felt the wrath of the mighty SPACED ARMOR. Also known as OMG WTF IS SERIES IS BROKEN!!!!11!!!
You'll have to shoot in between the tracks and hope you don't catch the tracks if you want to penetrate now... IS series got a HUGE boost out of the shell normalization change.

It's a 30mm thick piece of spaced armor that makes it look like a flat area that is nice to shoot at. But behind it is a sloped piece of thick armor that can ding pretty much anything, it's hidden by the flat piece. Similar to the IS-4/7. The shots penetrate the spaced armor, but ding off the sloped "real" armor behind it resulting in a no damage hit.

And yeah as said above, the armor behind the tracks is thin on both IS-3 and IS-7 so always aim there. (IS-4 is an exception, its thick as hell)

How thick is the armor behind the 30mm spaced bit?

Then the tracks absorb [B]every goddamn shell for 2 minutes anyway[/B]
[QUOTE=scout1;34349722]Then the tracks absorb [B]every goddamn shell for 2 minutes anyway[/B][/QUOTE]
Only if you hit a spot without hull behind em.
I'd love to do a little test where I fire at the tracks [I]with hull behind them[/I] and see how many are absorbed. Because very few if any will.

I just rushed an enemy IS-3 to test it out and even though my shell hit right between the tracks, where there's no road wheels or any other suspension component, it tracked him. A second shell did penetrate there though.
Good to know about that spaced armor, maybe that shitty short 88 will ding less now.

What gun? The tracks have an armor value aswell, so it can act as an "armor plate" above the hull armor if your gun doesn't have enough pen, resulting in a detrack+no dmg.
[editline]23rd January 2012[/editline]
oh did you use the short 88, that would explain it

Aww yeah, now to get the Ferdinand.
