are replays finicky as hell for anyone else?

tracks stay static on my own tank half the time, and it gets stuck at seemingly random points and just says "loading" in the bottom left indefinitely :(

[QUOTE=Azaz3l;44921459]Duh depends what you call lower front plate. Both "upper" and "middle" front plates have this addtional armor then.[/QUOTE]
idk about how they're technically defined, but personally i'd consider both those to be part of the "upper" glacis, since they're both above the point where armour stops facing downwards and starts facing upwards :v:

Try not using time speedups/timeskipping, these tend to break tank replays.
Aside of that they just sometimes break on their own and you can't do much. It just happens.
Anyone else getting huge random lag spikes recently? I've crashed my plane a few times because of it
How much does crew experience affect the overall performance of your vehicle?
I noticed the turret traverse on my Pz3 Ausf. L was 12 degrees/sec then after a few matches it was 14 degrees/sec.
well era 4 sim is dominated by is2s
great
[QUOTE=Crumpet;44922506]well era 4 sim is dominated by is2s

I saw nothing but popping IS-2s everywhere.
I thought Era4 sim is dominated by JagdPanthers and SU-100s.

The IS-2 isn't that amazing, don't let them shoot the weaker parts of your tank and they will bounce then you'll be able to shoot 2 - 3 times in the time it takes them to reload.

that's the thing, first time i loaded the replay i thought it was 'cause i instinctively started trying to use arrow keys to adjust the speed, like with WoT replays, but it kept happened the subsequent 20 or so tries after that too where i just literally double-clicked the replay in-game and let it roll without touching anything afterwards.
it sucks, 'cause i really wanted to record that replay - it's the first natch i ever really carried in and i'm proud of it :c

Not to mention the turret armor is completely dysfunctional and I still don't get if the game heavily underepresents the turret armor or if Soviet engineers really were retarded enough to build a tank with significantly less effective turret armor than hull armor, which goes against any sensible design ever... then again, early production King Tiger... ehh.

atleast you still have fun in most battles even if it's a defeat, unlike wot where you just die horribly

tbh I almost always aim for the turret in this game. Something I unlearned from WoT very quickly.
If you can pen the turret, which it seems you can pretty easily on most tanks you seriously fuck them up.
Turret armor in this game acts sensible rather than being a magic force-field.
It also helps guns are laser accurate if you aim them correctly, which means your chances of hitting a flat plate and face-fucking the gunner are better than it randomly deflecting sideways and hitting the gun mantlet. About the only tank I don't shoot at the turret frequently, thus far, is the KV-1 because the mantlet is fucking huge and rather durable.

In WT at least you don't have to wait for the tank to "return from battle", which helps IMMENSLY.
I got shot in nothing but barrel in SU-100, I shot and my gun went full out banana. I rolled back a bit to repair. Repair time 5 minutes.
What's the fucking point? It's 5v5 simulation match. If this was supposed to knock me out then it might as well just kill me.
They should just make track repair take max of a minute non-track repair take max of 1:30, regardless of the damage accumulated and crew injured, with possibility to have the times with repair skill on crew.

Stuff patched this way should have 50% the normal health (break again easier) and operate at 50% efficiency. Returning into should give you mint condition tank after 30 seconds.

The repair is a bit bonkers. It's way to easy just to slap someone's gunner and cannon/breach in one shot - gg no re they're out of the game basically for the next 3-10+ minutes.
If the maps weren't tiny, and there were logical places to get repaired (base), it'd be nice.
A funny solution would be engineer vehicles that can help other players with repair, but I have a feeling people would dislike them on a team when it gives a shitty 5 v 5 match.

We bitch more generally here, and less about specific matches and teams. One thing to talk about a streak or shit mechanic, it's another to complain about a one-off bad match.

I'm sorry for responding to this post, and even more sorry for things that are about to be written, but I can't just remain silent on this one - I wanted to warn nice fellas in this thread about all these borderline shitposts of yours which are going to flood this thread, constant low blows, the hilarious running thing of yours where you mention polacks, polish anthems, polish flags every time you complain about someone or something (and that's a really, really common occurrence in the wot thread). Don't suppose pointing this stuff out (again) is going to change anything tho, but I guess it was worth a try

Just pointing out that my last mention of "siema" was 4 weeks ago.
6 posts about siema teams within this year. That's about once per month.
So we still come to the point of "why me". I understand you taking offense to the use of the word but I'd expect you to understand that it's been [url=http://horobox.co.uk/u/orkel_1401224777.png]a synonym[/url] in the tonks community for ages.

There's really no citation needed. I check back to the thread every now and then, and a lot of it is bitching about singular matches and teams, with a side of statistical-autism. Not anywhere near all of it is you, but it feels like the bulk of the thread.
I enjoy War Thunder more because a lot of that muh-%s and constantly pointing out, why yes, sometimes teams suck - just isn't as strong here. Yet.

Orkel, you were saying the same things when we played together, and that was like a year ago. Everyone knows that you say these things, and we all know you will keep saying it. It's sort of become your own stereotype and the fact that you started it in the WT thread pretty much implies that it's going to stay [I]forever[/I].
Also you are great at tanks and we all get shitty teams

At least you didn't get hit in the cannon and breach which was a [I]72 minute[/I] repair time. Did they need to ship new parts in straight from Germany or something?

considering you appear to use it as a derogatory term, it creates and perpetuates a negative stereotype [I]of an entire nationality[/I], which i dunno about most people but i'd consider that kinda racist, so that's 6 too many
Anyone played some RB/SB in the Panther 2? How is it.
first panther is pretty painful to play
sorry there fellas, I shouldn't have posted in the first place, thought it'd change something but it actually made the situation even worse - I'm really genuinely feeling awful now that I know that orkel's ready to go actual lengths to validate his thing
and ironically but unsurprisingly resulted in me shitting up the thread, guess i'll post a tank e

These asymetric maps, man.
It's odd, I ran into far less blatantly polish tankers than I would expect.
Good thing, too.

"Siema" is also extremely rare in chat, but to be honest the chat is generally far often silent than in WoT.
The game gets really rewarding when you're doing good though. Flanked the enemy's flanking route in a BT-7, ended up with four kills from the rear, a reward for a missile kill and a reward for a bomb kill.
