It is a little bit faster than the Pz4s, nothing too special. It's small though so it can get to certain areas that other tanks can't get to, which makes it kind of a meme ambush flanker


If you are going to queue 5.7 then you pretty much will have to use it's APCR unless you get up close and hit the sides

>>153233186
Can you offer even a shred of evidence supporting your claim as to the number of overwatch active players?
Nobody but gaijin knows how many people play log in to wt every day, the best we can do is make wild guesses based on the steam data which is either highly accurate and representative or completely irrelevant depending on the narrative you want to support. On the other hand, nobody but blizzard knows how many play overwatch every day and apparently they don't want to tell. On the other other hand, we know exactly how many people play log in to CSGO every day.

You seem REALLY defensive that your favourite game has been overshadowed anon, but the question is why the fuck are you arguing it here? I don't play overwatch or CSGO, but I can sure as shit tell you what I've seen to be far more popular these past few months. I'm not invested in this but you clearly are, so go back to your CS general or go start an argument on the OW general, just get out of this shitty general about a shitty free to play russian plane and tank game.

Thanks in advance.

Turret which is huge in comparison with the Japanese tanks far (turret ring diameter is is approximately 2,000 mm) it is difficult to manipulate the turning of the conventional manual, turning was carried out by an electric motor. Also manually turning for fine adjustment of the sighting and Misao gun was also used in combination. Order to carry out the work in the turret smoothly, for the first time turret basket it has been equipped as a domestic tank. Tank length is in the turret basket, gunner, loading hand we are disposed to pivot along with the inside of the device according to the rotation of the turret. There is no need to move in accordance with the turning as in the conventional domestic tanks, decreased the burden required for the operation.

>>153238654
Ki-43 otsu is probably the most fun OP plane in the game today.
The ki-61s are comparatively underwhelming, though not bad.
The first ki-84 is very undertiered, I never played the second one, and the third one is very good but not much fun because because it often gets jet games. Against other props it's a clubber.

but playing japs alone is an act of masochism desu, they are ridiculously high BR for what they are and have HUGE gaps in their tree, specially the one under B7A2
playing SB japs with friends over Mumble can be pretty fun tho

I don't even know what you're trying to imply, a plane at the correct battle rating won't win every engagement. If the zero has already wasted his energy killing two or three other fighters, is it really all that unfair that he should die to a plane that had to sideclimb for the whole match just to snag one kill?

>>153234398
don't buy overwatch. Blizzard is just as greedy and money grubbing as Gaijin, and their game is unbalanced shite. You know how DotA has a near 100% hero pick rate? That is, nearly every hero in dota 2 is useful in some niche and is therefore picked. In overwatch, if you don't pick a zenyatta, lucio, and some tanks that depend on the game mode, you lose. There are 12 heroes that are completely useless and are literally never picked in high level play.

Said another way: blizzard's system of balance involves overnerfing and overbuffing heroes until they either become useless garbage or required flavor of the month picks. Sound familiar?

>>153254031
>http://www.dotabuff.com/heroes/winning
Wow, those pick rates sure look even!

>>153254294
I'm talking about high level play. In the international something like 95% of heroes were picked. If you include the qualifiers it becomes 100%.

Low skill pub overwatch is probably pretty similar to dota in pickrate but here's the difference: half the characters in overwatch are straight up not viable because they're just completely outclassed by a better one. There's no reason to play soldier76 when mccree is better, there's no reason to play mercy when lucio exists. There's no reason to play a single one of the defense heroes.

Again, does this sound familiar? Flavor of the month shit that everyone plays because it's easymode, with tons of shit that you can't play because it's not meta at the moment? If you switch from war thunder to overwatch you're simply trading one shit game for another.

So true. I ground through into high tier-4 for Thunder League unlocks.... it was terrible. All my tanks were like paper and the stock ammo bounced, even at point-blank. Then I tried RB, and suddenly shots actually bounced if I was angled correctly.

Currently practicing at low-tier in RB.... mainly because I wanted an excuse to fly out that German S.U.M.M.E.R aircraft... but I just realised that I can strap a heavier bombload to a Bi-plane that's .4 BR lower. Go figure :P

>>153240460
Nah, shit like that is long gone. Even custom missions are a rarity. Wtg's "community" is absolute shit now, autists are even so afraid of talking to people they remove vg chat and TS from the OP.

Vehicles have SL/RP gains multipliers higher, further in tech tree it's placed.
Missions and targets have also their own speciffic SL/RP rewards, like knocking out medium AI tank in BR 3.0+ Ground Strike gives 1500 SL when flying A-20.

It does more damage than the 100mm for almost twice the reload speed. You're fast, have good armor and low silhouette. Flanking Tiger IIs is easy as all hell and you can frontally rape anything else with the default nuke shell.

What is the better game mode for tank grinding? Realistic seems to bag more RP, but takes longer and is literally a matter of out flanking the flankers, which is a huge pain in the ass on MOBA maps. Arcade is easier and gets more kills, but it's less RP. What should I play?

you could kill 4 enemies and get a few assists, but if you lose the match, the RP is shit anyways, and since both brits and claps have shit winrate compared to germans and slavs, it's not really profitable until maybe 6.7
