[QUOTE=Riller;52775723]
Why would it being lower not make it enjoyable? You can just uptier it yourself by bringing it in alongside another tank of higher rank.[/QUOTE]
I realise now that my sentence didn't make sense at all. What I meant was the 251 should be uptiered because it's such a bitch to face when you drive most WW2 era vehicles, since it's essentially a baby leo 1
Wait so if the 4-5 is moving to the TD line, new german tonks soon?
A random player and I stood up against an IS6 in AA guns without dying - we blew off an IS6's tracks until someone else arrived to kill it

We're never seeing a karl gerat are we
The new BTR is claimed to have a top speed of 50mph on roads but we'll never see that because it accelerates at like 0.5 mph per second.

and it can't make up some hills (even while driving on road) because it's maximum inclination is like 10 degrees so it just loses speed and starts slipping back.

Had that happen today. Was struggling to climb even a fairly small hill.
Also: Saw a tip on an old forum post that made SPAAG play so much better - "Just when you think you've got the lead right, aim just a liiiiitle bit further". 'Been knocking planes down left and right after trying that.

Figured this out recently on my own actually, I find that if I aim just like an inch (on my screen) ahead of where I think I need to aim, I usually hit within a few rounds. It's kinda scary how well its been working out.
Was just looking into the BTR's engine / performance upgrades and they all give +0% max incline as well as absolutely pitiful HP upgrades (With all engine upgrades you get a whopping additional 12.2HP, +0 incline). The only vaguely saving grace is the acceleration time decreases.

could be worth making a bug report about the max inclination and see what they say about it, 'cause that screams bug to me :v

This by far is the BTRs greatest feature.

The Puma is the same way with engine upgrades giving no inclination boost to the already pitiful stat that makes climbing hills from a stop a very painful endeavor.

Whoops, nevermind. I remember them not, for some reason.
So yesterday, you guys posting your silly planes taking a nap, i just quickly opened my game to see if anything was whack on my end, but nothing was. Aw.
Last night, i was at a lan. We only had partial internet. Ordinary browsing worked just fine, but no games really worked online. And my BV was aware of that.

BMP-1 is some good shit that took awhile to grow on me, but I like it now. It's basically playing an alternate, hard-mode 906. If anything throws me off about it, it's how disgustingly devious I feel blowing up Tiger II Hs with an infantry carrier shooting doubly-rocket-boosted RPGs from the 60s.
Closing in on the KPZ-70 which is oddly enough, the first tank ill ever get capable of using ATGM's
Im going to find it hard not to use them constantly, but the AP shells are just so damn good.
I still cannot get over how much fun the Taran is, like it has no business being this good, especially after the changes to hull break.

I was surprised hos much more mobile it was than the 906. The only thing i miss is the awesome stabilized gun, but it's still really fun so far. Also it has no ammo upgrades, so you'll have the best ammo available right from the start.
Unlocked both of the ducks, really good fun.
Definitely a high risk vehicle. Good play is rewarded generously, but basic mistakes with energy or distance control are punished brutally.
The B-2 is much more forgiving at least. The 30mm mini quacker can still handily penetrate medium tanks and gives you a chance to correct your shot. The 75mm super quacker on the B-3 is all-or-nothing. Each strafe has one chance to shoot, and and without the HVAP-T you have to account for bullet drop to a much greater degree. It's also a struggle to remember to aim using the crosshair rather than the mouse marker. After that, it's a long bloody time to turn around. Trying to rush the turn will lead to massive energy loss, not that it has any in the first place, and there won't be enough distance to properly aim. I am still undisciplined.

TBH I feel like the BMP-1 is shit, but I also like the vehicle. I just wish they'd give us BMP-2 with the 30mm autocannon and stuff, because BMP-1 is kinda really gimped compared to 906, since it's reload speed is even solid 6 seconds, can't even be improved with aced crew :/
[QUOTE=Ilwrath;52784240]TBH I feel like the BMP-1 is shit[/QUOTE]
It would be outright better than the 906 if it kept the stabilizer for anything except massively open maps where you need shell velocity.
It's the only tank in the game you can shoot an ATGM and keep shooting the main cannon at the same time. :v:

It still retains the title of "Stalin's airborne fridge launcher".
If only tanks took anywhere near as much skill as aviation does to do well in
