Cool, going to start using my IT-1 in RB and I'm going to slap a talisman on it. :v:

I love their cute little crew timeout
Like yeah, I'm totally going to play my panthers after the Tiger 2 to avoid the lockout. Or I can just exit and move on to the next cancerous tank (or keep playing the damn tiger 2 forever)

Crew Timeout is a good idea, but bad implementation. It does nothing. When I want to grind something fast in AB, I just throw it out alone and bail rather than wasting an additional 12+ minutes on trying to pry out a victory. Or even if it does mildly upset me, I go to one of the other 4 nations and play a round while waiting.
So I'll admit I don't really know shit about tanks, why does a T-54's "Effective thickness" of ~190mm consistently stop 230mm of pen?
Is there some trick I'm just not getting?
[editline]9th January 2017[/editline]
Because I'd love to just blame commie bias but I don't really know
effective thickness is only processed when shot directly straight on. the more a tank is angled, the greater that effective thickness becomes
because cosine

190mm is line of sight, angled armour "denormalises" a shell and sorta steers it away from penetrating
Type 62 get, 50mm front turret armor and 25mm hull armor 10/10 basically a t-34-85 but slightly worse in some aspects
The gun is noice tho, because its the same gun.

The grind begins. Fuck. :(
The Type 62 is... interesting. 5.7 BR and no HEAT-FS thankfully.

Well that sure was anticlimactic as fuck.
The god damn tank is piss.

Not necessarily, you're basically getting a slav walker bulldog at 5.7 instead of 6.3, It IS a Light Tank after all.

I'm excited as fuck because of this fix, it was annoying as hell.
EDIT: has anyone else received 500 Golden Eagles? I just logged in and they are there...
Can someone explain this?

how the heck did you get all those thick bushes
I went to buy some last time I played and I could only get like, one big bush and one small one
[QUOTE=Covalent;51650218]how the heck did you get all those thick bushes

You get to use 6 copies of whatever prop you buy, that's just the big bush slapped onto his half track 6 times.
I started trying to catalogue every tank and it's variants a day or two ago. And I can safely say that this was not a clever task.
The upside is that you learn about all kinds of interesting and weird shit. Locusts with howtizers and powered traverses, that the M7 Medium could hotswap it's tranny and engine in 20 minutes your money back, that there was an electric-transmission M2A3 Stuart that theoretically could go 72kph in reverse, quad-recoiless rifle projects in 1945, that an anti-air autoloader 75mm on a Chaffee was known for violently vibrating itself to death in full auto fire. Tank development history is fun.

I got in on that bushy action early before they raised the prices (I think?) and made it so you had to buy all 6 individually.
Can just about hide a Maus with them too, it's pretty funny

They originally launched at like, 500 or 1000GE for all 6 bushes. Then they price gouged to 2000-3000 I think, before swapping it over to "buy one at a time tovarisch ))" back to 500-1000GE.
It's disgusting P2W, but since I got in on time, I still abuse it. v:v:v

So after reading the forums ive come to the conclusion that the type 62 [b]was[/b] good but the development team (of which alot are currently on holidays) decided that instead of putting it at higher tier where it belongs being from 1960, they would remove its only redeeming feature (HEATFS which it has on the chinese server) and put it at a lower tier because "internal reasons". At least its APCR is -slightly- better than the t-34's
:what:

Pretty much.
It's still a fun vehicle to drive, at least for me.
The stock round has decent penetration and massive filler, so it one-shots, and detonates ammo a lot.
The biggest drawback of the tank is the turret rotation speed.
Aye cause the stock round and its better AP round are straight up the same one from the t-34-85

I'm jealous, cause all you can do now is buy 1 of them.
You can use it once then that's it. You can't buy the big bush again. It's pretty lame, I guess they're too lazy to fix that.
Also I'm jealous of the Maus, I know it gets shit, but the sheer brutality of a maus looks so nice.
[QUOTE=Covalent;51651319]Also I'm jealous of the Maus, I know it gets shit, but the sheer brutality of a maus looks so nice.[/QUOTE]
Maus is good if you want a giggle in AB as it actually kind of works there and most players are still too retarded to know where to shoot it, but in RB it's workable on exactly one map. And even then, you're better off in something else.
Who would've figured a barely mobile 188 ton wet dream for Hitler doesn't fight very well against Cold War tanks and ATGMs. v:v:v
Maus could be worth playing again if Gaijin would hurry up and decompress era 5 already
A man can dream ;~;

Type type 62 has awful mobility just like the object 906
