40 kills in a Soviet light tank?

RIP seals
Got 15 of those in a single bt-5 life.
BT-5 is basically BT-7 at 1.0 with two Arcade spawns. It's magic. Combined - it, T-60, and T-26 for 5 spawns of comedy.

Time to crank out the Neo 80s synth.

Its kind of funny how unbalanced it is that one nation gets literally twice as many spawns from the get-go.
you can field 5 tanks as a new russian tanker at remain at 1.0 BR, 6 if you get the Guards T-26.

the BT-5 should just be a 1.0 normal tank like the T-60
the half-painted F-5 Panther is the sexiest skin for any plane in the game

Tier 1 US tanks has so much potential.

I wonder when they are gonna realize that the T-26E should be at 1.3 BR
I mean its steadily dropped in BR with every update from 2.7 (rofl) to 2.3, and now to 2.0

I seem to get shot down (arcade) by BT-5 more often than any US tier 1 tanks .
Oh btw,
I had to play Russians Tier 2 GF for the achievement.
T34-1942 is so fucking strong. Holy fuck. No shit I had problems fighting against in when I played as Germans.
Whoever thought Korelia with 1 capture point and spawn point which forces 1 team to get bottlenecked into a canyon while the other team can freely roam the field is fucking dumb.
Such a horrible shit map if you're the team stuck in the canyon. Makes it worse when I've only just got the Panther A so no repair kit or anything, 2 games in a row I've been 1 hit killed and then the latest game I get instantly crippled by enemy fire but since I have no repair kit and that map is horribly balanced, there's no way I can even get to the cap zone to cap it, let alone repair.
Back to hanger, I'm not even going to bother spawning again, time for a break!

Except when Pz4 F2 can literally railgun it from 1km away without aiming for critical spots.
T-34 can be a real rape machine if you keep short-medium distance.

I didn't find any problems when facing F2.
First of all, there is HUUUUGE ammo rack in the middle of F2, just shot between the driver and machine gunner = instant kill.
F2 has no armour, you can knock out its crew in no time, thus disabling gunner is a piece of cake.
When I did play with F2, I didn't find 75mm cannon to be that good (HEAT shells are pretty...meh, default shells bounce so much and didn't penetrate properly for some reason, also default shell is just APCBC), actually I had way more success with Pz III M and its 50mm cannon.
Also that long distance attacks with HEAT shells from F2 can be pen you most of the time, but... you can just aim at him and put BR-350B (APHEBC with 90 mm pen @10m / 73mm-pen@1000m / 45mm-pen@2000m), if that doesn't 1 hit destroy F2 it will knock out most vital parts of it anyway.
I know it'll be hell frozen over before we get the BT-42 with 114mm howitzer, but maybe Gaijin will add the BT-7A with a 76.2mm howitzer, ala T-28 and T-35.

BT-7A is already on the Russian release tree.
[editline]8th January 2015[/editline]
I think its the BT-5A technically, but there is definitely a pootgun BT tank on there
[editline]9th January 2015[/editline]
Interestingly, the T-40 is also on the release tree, which is an amphibious tank with only a fiddycal DShK as armament
Oh boy, just had fun against a B25 squadron flying in formation with my Ki102 in RB
I killed 3 of them before I realized I fucked up my maneuver and crashed :dance:

Here I am, suffering these events when I realize I basically already have 110 kills on the SMK and I didn't even notice.
It's been like, a day or two, and I've already unlocked the cum-blasted I mean Winter camo. :v:

is it weird that I find myself using the 45mm more often than the L-11 on my SMK in RB?
the ballistics/reload time/penetration is really awful on the L-11 and I honestly kill more shit with the 45mm by crewing sniping with APCR and the 2 second reload time
plus people always just shoot the main turret, so by the time I get like 2 shots off with the L-11 the whole turret crew is dead and the reload time jumps to like 20 seconds

I am the money.
The pinging sound the Mk 103 makes when firing is actually a cash register exploding.
The HS129 can't dogfight because it's wings are weighed down by all the money.
The cockpit is built like a bank vault.
I could go on all day.

Did they give it a flight model yet?
I play RB tonks to be AA and shot down planes, but the planes never come ;_;
I've started playing RB tonks just to bomb actual players instead of AI tanks. Rush the first capture point in a low tier tank in a Br 5.0 match and jump in a stuka to bomb the everloving shit out of people.
Yeah, probably good idea. Speaking of rushing, the Stuart really is a zippy little tank.
Okay, Tiger H1 finally makes Germans viable in simulator battles...

Nothing more satisfying than taking out 4 tanks with one bomb in a map which only has one capture point.

If you need a vehicle the developer admits to be unfair and unbalanced to feel "viable" then sure :rolleyes:

It's a nice change of pace after whole German early game, where basically you are under gunned and lack any sort of armour. If you really think that Tiger H1 is that unbalanced, then hell...fuck it, half of Russian tree is utter bullshit when it comes to BR balancing.
Actually, after playing a bit.
I can say it's not THAT strong, also it tends to drop you in higher BR pretty often.
If you are fighting in your BR (5.0-5.9), you can expect to achieve something, but as soon as it drops you into 6.0 + you may as well just leave the game.
I'm about to download this now, is it any good, i've not seen much on it but it looks like a game i'd enjoy

Every single tank in the German TD line up until Jagdpanther has frontal armor that's between good and top notch for the rank, with guns that are by average above the rank's par, with highlight being
PzIV/70 which is absolutely fantastic and at rank 5.0, with both gun and armor comparable to that of Panther D.
The later three PzIIIs have very good front armor for their ranks, with very high velocity guns that, at low to medium ranges have absolutely no issues with the tanks they face. They are also moderately agile and fast.
Hetzer's great, Marder III has the probably best gun of era 2 (Soviet gun, btw, with ammo which Soviets don't even get).
Oh, and Germany gets the by a long shot best reserve tank.
I don't understand why does everyone who starts with German tanks feels so compelled to beeline to the PzIV/Panther line which is arguably by average weakest/requires the most finesse to handle, and then complain Germany is underpowered, when German tree is full of extremely potent tanks at all ranks.
[editline]9th January 2015[/editline]
And regarding Tiger - that's what the Devs have admitted. They cannot uprank it because it eats shit and dies against D-25T 122mm armed tanks, but it's still too unfair against the early tanks it faces.
This is one of the things the what-can-you-all-face system is meant to solve. They will increase Tiger's "bottom rank" so things that are too low won't run into it, without ramping up the max rank it will be able to face.
Say, is there any reason why I need to discharge my gun if I want to change my ammo?
On tanks, that is.

It's one of those games where you feel like complete trash when you start off, largely because all of the starter planes bar Russia's are, in fact, trash. But getting kills, especially outside of Arcade mode, is the greatest feeling.
Basically, if you want a picture of [del]the future[/del] what WT's like, imagine a [del]boot[/del] flying 2x4 stamping on a human face - forever.
