[QUOTE=T553412;46901875]The BR system needs to be fucking scrapped, ASAP. There's always that ONE asshole flying a fully upgraded plane 1 tier above your own. 2 tiers above if the game feels like royally fucking you up.[/QUOTE]
Yeah I just got the T-50 in the russian faction and im facing up against Shermans thats a tier above me. Im getting one shotted by T-34 and its so frustrating.
Game works on a 1.0BR spread, max. The end.
And for those whining, it use to be influenced (rigged) by your very short-term win/loss ratio.
That said, it does suck a lot of life out of the game and they could easily tighten it to a 0.7 (2/3) to make everyone happier in the short term. Their future system of "these vehicles can only meet these other vehicles" just sounds like an [I]even more[/I] masked battle rating system, which in and of itself, is just a masked 0-20 Rank system like we use to have with a few extra ranks.

Well the spread doesn't work when you have shermans, t34 and M4 topping the scoreboard while im stuck with tier 1 tanks. Why are these guys not getting matched up with 4.7 if the spread is true?
Im in a 1.3 tank and i get one shotted by a 3.3 tank. Its fucking broken.

The T-50 is a rad tank. It can go faster than BTs and has the armor of an early t-34. Its cannon is the only thing that's lacking.

You have something in your line-up that is at least 2.3 - as simple as that. The spread doesn't go further for any reason.
By the way, T-50 is 2.7BR so if you're using it, you can see 3.7.

Yes that is true but I still using 2.3 and a 1.3. They should just have a cap that if you should be only matched up with others that have 2.7 max.

Just take the T-50 out of your lineup while you unlock another 1 or 2 tanks around that tier, or take the reserves out of your lineup so you're only using the T-50, or play a gamemode where you only use 1 tank per match.

Well I finally managed to get the 40 German TD kills after much bullshit and rage. It made me realize that the german line is just utter shit and relies on just luck (at least that is the impression I got when using the T1-T2 ranks). USSR and USA I have no issues with playing. Maybe it's just me and my luck, but I utterly hate the german tanks.

Yeah, I tend to play significantly worse as Germans compared to Soviets and USA. I just can't make them work as well as the other two nations.
Maybe it's just my tendency to get in peoples faces more often than sitting back and sniping.

The battle rating should have it so your top rated tank puts you with other people with that rank. I see exactly his problem and its shitty trying to do anything against 7 shermans when you only have a 45mm gun.

I get that you will say then you're useless after the top tank blows up, but at least everyone is on equal ground at the start. Right now its hilarious when you're facing a KV-1 with a light tank that cant even scratch the damn thing from behind.
I mean at least with planes you can do damage period unless its a beefed up bomber or ground units, in tanks you're completely fucked if you're outgunned.
You know, I play this game sometimes and I dont have a good time, and I blame some flaws in the game for it. Then I remember that if I was playing WoT everything would probably be worse.

A lot of soviet tanks have far more intuitive and forgiving gameplay than their German counterparts, as they are reasonably mobile and fast, their armor is often more or less consistent all the way around the tank which means positioning and angling isn't as crucial, and their guns, while lacking penetration, have the heftiest explosive loads, so it doesn't really matter where do you hit the enemy, when you hit the enemy.
Soviet weapon development policy was in general meant to ensure supplying weapons that should require minimal amount of experience and training to be operated at sufficient degree of effectiveness, which counts for both the crews and their commanders. This is actually tangible in how the vehicles play.

Great scott, the challenge is up, it really is Spaghetti fighters. Fuck my liiiiife.
[editline]11th January 2015[/editline]
Hahaha, Gaijin dun goofed big time.
They set up the last I-301 mission late, and set it up as GROUND KILLS in Italian fighters. Then they fucked it up completely and nothing counted, and then they swapped it to air kills.
So now there's some people who finished the deal and got I-301 in two sorties, and people who lost their kills to the changes.

I heard that the designer of BREDA SAFAT faced death penalty on Musolini's command for how shit the gun was, for added irony they sentenced him to death by salvo of his own machinegun.
On first two attempts it jammed, third time it finally went off but left him with nothing but bruises, so they beat him to death with the cleaning rod instead.
M8A1 verdict?

Stealth ammo and go for pilot snipes, it's not instant but it's semi-reliable, pulled quite a few 3-4 kill games w/ just the 2xBreda-SAFAT

Absolutely not worth the time, but maybe one will later become another TB-3 for me. :v:

No it didn't, it's in 45 minutes
what fucking genius decided your commander being wounded should cancel your reload?
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;46904946]what fucking genius decided your commander being wounded should cancel your reload?[/QUOTE]
I dunno I think I'd be slightly worried if the person sitting next to me suddenly and spontaneously converted into raspberry jam.
I think it's because the commander gives bonuses to reload time though.
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;46904946]what fucking genius decided your commander being wounded should cancel your reload?[/QUOTE]
Probably because your commander doubles as loader or gunner.
