What gearbox bug? I've had it spaded for ages
[QUOTE=kirderf;51694859]What gearbox bug? I've had it spaded for ages[/QUOTE]
It gets stuck in second gear, the breaks are not what they should be.
It's like the instructor holds the breaks down for an extra %25 percent of the time than actually improving them.
M163 VADs is fun for all of about 10 seconds in practice.
Era V isn't worth it outside a few vehicles that are outright broken. (IT-1, ZSU-57-2.)
Game gets it's best around Era I/II. By the time it gets into King Tiger II H spam and other stuff, you might as well stop.

i got curious and tried the m22 out in test drive - is this what you mean by getting stuck in 2nd gear?

Yup, it often NEVER gets out of second gear too. Its frustrating to drive even in arcade, it just can't move to get out of the line of fire like it should.
I feel like the Tetrarch does the same thing. I thought I was crazy, but it also seems to get stuck in a low gear often and only wiggling a bit seems to "unstick" the gears.

good game
I also fell down a hole I couldn't get out, but I was better off in there anyway

I'm noticing my rounds just vanishing.
Hell just now I was in my t-54-1947, facing toward a KT 2. I shot into right side where his gunner and things are, the round just.. Vanished. Voop, gone. Na'da. Didn't even result in the screen pop up.
He shoots me, and it's a fucking trap shot. Bounced off my gun down into my meaty innards.
Then another, facing an ST-A1, shot into its meaty core and the round just went NAAAAAAAAAAAH I'M OUTTA HERE and vanished. I killed it anyway because I got lucky and he bounced off of me.
The fuck, man.
i've been noticing ghost rounds for a long ass time
seems like the ghosts of WoT are coming to plague WT
Never really played Japanese fighters too much, so once I started climbing up the tree I picked up the pace.
The army fighters are amazing, two 250 kg bombs are pretty deadly when it comes to eliminating tanks. Ki-100 just evaporates planes.

You can imagine how it ended, add to that a Chafee strafed to death with 20mms, and 4 planes shot down in one life :v:

Now I remember why I don't play high tier.
[img]http://i.imgur.com/GKtlTSY.jpg[/img]
Don't bother playing anything other than sim battles at tier 5.
I know but come on, Tier 5, RB.. Almost 10 targets destroyed and ONLY 2500RP?
That just. It's so .. Bewildering to see.
I can make that amount if I kill ONE plane...
Iunno how people do it - Grind to the very last tier, or have every tank.
I just can't do it. The results are so.. Depressing.
I was just about to say that lol.
[B]BUY PREMIUM! BUY TALISMANS! GIVE US YOUR MONEY TOVARISH![/B]
:conspiratard:
Yeah but to even get past the grind, premium/talisman doesn't really do much.
The more tanks they put in, the more they increase the grind. Only so many people are willing to do that, and it gets very stale, quick.
At least for me it does.

If you like the 250kg bombs, consider looking into the AR-2 for the soviets. VERY maneuverable, ridiculously high landing speed, and it has both dive-bombing and level-bombing accuracy.

This happens all the time to me. I play a round, get ~5 kills and couple caps, receive like 1.2k RP (when the like 4th sherman in a row takes 60k+ rp to unlock), and quit the game.
Tank RP gain is gimped. There's absurd diminishing returns on kills too - everything hinges on winning or not.
Even combining talismans and premium, the utmost peak I usually pull on things like 8-12+ kill matches and multiple caps without additional boosters on-top of all that shit is 8000-10000. That's what I use to get in Air RB on a so-so match with premium alone. :v:

This is the amount of RP I get at every Air AB, although it varies at 900-2000 RP per battle. I just need ~240k RP to move to tier V and more ~120k RP to research my first jet.
goddamn the M4A1 is a fire-filled deathtrap
[editline]22nd January 2017[/editline]
Is the B-25 better in RB? It can be fun in AB, but once you're spotted and people start going for you get swarmed and die a death of a million little annoying pinpricks (emphasis pricks)
I have sent in my application to join IFLAP.

When you go into battle, carry only as much ammo as you need (10-15) ammo racks are simulated based on how much ammo you have. So less ammo = less ammo in the racks to get hit. Most shermans are pretty 'meh' though, you might be better off grinding in a Hellcat.
Chi-To is a surprisingly good tank for its tier
Chi-Ri II on the other hand, feels mediocre; the 3 round burst is nice but it's about as large as a Tiger II, more sluggish than a Tiger I, and weighs about as much as an IS-2
the only real thing that screams medium tank to me is the armor V:v:V

Chi-Ri II is excellent when it works, and a massively oversized & massively frustrating Chi-To when it doesn't.
I also [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pON4Gc3SV5A"]caught someone cheating today[/URL] who is so shit at the game (37% RB W/R past month) that it was actually hard to tell if he was cheating in some other replays.

There will always be people who are OK with mindlessly huge grinds. I'm just not one of them.
Also, air RB gives WAY more RP than that.

yeah, one of the nice parts about the Chi-Ri's BR is most of the tanks you fight are M18s, Comets, and T-34-85s, which you can critically damage in a single shot
the bad part is your agility and maneuverability is absolutely ass against opposing mediums so I have to check corners of urban areas like that one robocop gif
[editline]22nd January 2017[/editline]
also it gets uptiered most of the time

The upside is you have three shots. Two of which can undo any "woops tovarisch, that one bouns )))." That's something only one other tank in the game gets to enjoy - the Type 60 SS. There's also a cute 37mm to deal with Hellcats and SPAAGs.
The downside is the size. The reload. The BR. The armor given it's size. It's from-still mobility. The bug where entire clip gets reloaded if you lose the loader between cycling rounds. The lack of other 5.0s to bring along with it. So on and so forth.
It's not really [I]worth it[/I], but it is worth trying. Japan has some fun stuff to play with, but it's competitive at exactly two BRs. 3.3 and 8.3. Type 74/ST-B combo, or the 3.3 combo. Che-To is excellent, but it's the only 4.3 so you're a one trick pony if you sling it.

I have to learn how not to dive 90° to catch an enemy, and to maximize my climb speeds as well.

how the fuck can someone be so horrible while knowing where everyone is on the map??
