not even randomly spawned bomb targets. Only thing you could do with bomber was to fly to enemy airfield and drop bombs on it.

I don't remember if it was Grouchy or Vegeta that club in the MC202, but they have plenty fun in doing so. I myself too can have great games in it and outscore any 109 thats on my team. Especially if you set the Breda's convergence other than 500. Set it to 300 and 250 and gun's potency greatly increases. You just gotta close, and that's pretty easy with the 202. Don't bother with bombers though.

Just club bad P-40 and Hurricane pilots and hope that maybe one day they'll add the MC205 Veltro. That's at least they should add for Italy.

The thing about SPGs like that is that the entire ammo reserve is effectively kept in a ready rack, while the Panther II keeps literally ALL of its ammunition in the hull racks.

Skip and go for the StuG G. With addon armor it has closer to 100mm frontal armor and a hull traverse that you can use to instantly angle yourself for maximum memes.

The game should reward you with points for assisting in a point capture

Aim for the engine and sides.

I'm playing the Jap M24 and that's how i get my kills.

>>166133913
The game should just get rid of assists and give the full kill to both players, it fucking sucks when you kill most of the crew on a tank and set them on fire only for a random dude who was hanging in the back to rush in, block your last shot and kill them, giving you 300 points while they sit at 600.

You too, huh. Don't worry anon, I'm sure the next update will have more "client stability improvements" ))))

Man the game is literally broken right now, no im not talking about balance, no im not talking about vehicles and bias.

The game itself is broken, had a game in Kursk just now, the capture point said it was on G3, the team was sitting there getting destroyed waiting for the cap to happen, but it turns out that the actual cap circle was at G4, leaving the cap completely untouched until i happened to pass over it.

The bug with shells hitting but appearing to hit the ground in front of you is happening way too often to.

>>166134869
I'm talking about a bug with flat ground about 4-5 meters in front of the tank seems to get hit but the actual shell hitting you, just a client side desync but still annoying.

Friendly reminder that all American 6.7s except for the T29 perform better at 8.0

>>166135228
so by that logic something like say the IS-2 should have an even faster reload than the ISU-122S because there's much less room, no?

>>166135228
Maybe for the first 5-6 shots
Once the ready rack runs dry it becomes much harder to move shells up from the hull racks in a cramped turret

>>166135632
The IS-2M got an autoloader so it could fire 4-6 shells a minute instead of 2-3, but if it was implemented in the game everyone would go batshit. Atleast the IS-3 and IS-4M could get it..

Why indeed.
I'd just pussy out back to T1, but reassigning crews is so expensive it's not even funny.

>>166136871
Once a spot has a vehicle unlocked for it it can use that one anytime without paying for it again unless your playing WOT.

>>166135914

>>166137378

>>166136871
once crew is trained for vehicle it can use it anytime. Notice that when you unfold change vehicle menu, there's no price for vehicle it already used before. Expert qualification and progress to Ace also stay.

>>166137886
Huh, thanks.
Do you even get more RP in higher tiers? Or is low-tier grinding the most efficient?

>>166138173
If you are 2 tiers away from the tank you are grinding it penalizes you. So 1 can grind 1 and 2 but 3 will net you less rp.

>>166137378
he probably meant loader's assist, which is nothing like autoloader, it just makes heavy shell easier to move around as you don't need to lift it all the way from rack to breech. Not use if it was used in production vehicles.

Little note is that IS-2M, IS-3M and T-34-85M never really served. It was upgrade, mostly of engines, vehicles recieved before being shoved into reserve storages.

>>166138173
at bottom of vehicles stats is how much % of RP and SL vehicle produces. Generally higher BR vehicles produce more. Also reward depends on mode, RB gives more than Arcade, Sim gives more than BR.
Each vehicle has marked tiers where research with it is fully effecient. It's always tier bellow and tier above it.
Also there's bonus for researching vehicle with vehicle from same branch of tech tree.

If he kills higher ranked kills, yes. I used to get 4K RP in the Flight of Swallows event (shame they removed it for now) with a single 262 kill in my P-51.

>"The shell was heavy, the loaders complained that loading takes too long. I climbed into a tank, tried to lift a shell, and confirmed that it was very heavy. I needed to do something. The [Kirov] factory quickly developed a special mechanism for loading shells into the breech." Kotin's device seems to have been effective. In a letter to the Commissar of Armament Ustinov, concerning re-armament of the IS tank with a 100 mm gun, the engineers wrote "We consider it imperative that the D-25T remain in the IS-2. Latest trials at the ANIOP resulted in a rate of fire of 4-6 rounds per minute"."

Wait, if its a worse Comet why is it placed after the Comet? Especially when the Comet was designed and produced after the Challenger.

>>166142439
It's a Comet with a higher profile, weaker armor (not that it really matters since everything is going to be punching right through you anyway) and an uptier. The only advantage it has is its full-size 17-pounder which doesn't even make a huge difference anyway. Better to grab the Charioteer for the 20-pounder.

Finland has weird influence on Buffalos
>The top-scoring B-239 pilot was Hans Wind, with 39 kills. Lt Hans Wind, with six other Buffalos of LeLv 24, intercepted some 60 Soviet aircraft near Kronstad. Two Russian Pe-2 bombers, one Soviet Hawker Hurricane fighter, and 12 I-16s were claimed for the loss of just one B-239 (BW-378).
>After evaluation of claims against actual Soviet losses, aircraft BW-364 was found to have been used to achieve 42½ kills in total by all pilots operating it, possibly making it the highest-scoring fighter airframe in the history of air warfare.
>The top scoring Finnish ace, Ilmari Juutilainen, scored 34 of his 94½ kills in B-239s, including 28 in BW-364.
>In service from 1941 to 1945, Buffalos of Lentolaivue 24 (Fighter Squadron 24) claimed 477 Soviet Air Force warplanes destroyed, with the combat loss of just 19 Buffalos, an outstanding victory ratio of 26:1

There is just so much satisfaction to killing a player that tries to kill you after you revenge bomb him that just makes you feel so amazing. That is what makes me keep playing Tier 5. Just to induce that salt on a player's wound.

i seriously wish they fixed SPAA spawn prices already, either lower the japs so that SPAA doesn't cost as much as medium tanks, or raise all of them above what you get at the beginning to stop people from spawning in SPAA at the beginning and leaving you without any AA when enemy planes are actually there.

>>166150990

I propose a fix. Make it so that you can't spawn on an SPAA if its your first spawn. You can only spawn in an SPAA after you die and the cost of said SPAA should be flexible around all of them depending on their effectiveness. So lets say a Ta-Se which on a downtier can wreck shit. It should be the same as a Medium Tank(I think that's how its working now) and on an uptier it should be 150.

Gaijin also needs to decide if they want AA with historical belts or with belts that balance AA. I think they need to forget about historical belts for AA and just remove full AP belts from every AA and just leave them at a 1 every 4 rounds.
