What a fucking shit excuse. They made the fucking research slower when tanks were released so retards weren't getting into Tier IV in under two days of grinding, and haven't touched it since.

They showed too much love to bongs for a couple of months now. Next patch with their new shitty Chieftain Mk.10 and the nerf to Rockets they'll have dick to compete with in Tiers 4 and 5. HESH might be getting a few stealth nerfs in the future since in the Q&A they talked about reworking it.

Chieftain Mk 5 needs APDSDU, and the Mk 10 needs it's correct horsepower and engine power, APFSDS-T penetration values, stillbrew armor layout, and to remove the ability of APFSDS detonating like they have explosive filler.

>>188066482

>and every other line is utter garbage

For Air RB, somewhat yes. They have decent Aircraft here and there. For Ground RB, they're great because most of the lines have Planes that can carry RP-3s.

>HESH isn't even in tier 4

Conway, Conqueror, Centurion Mk.10, Vickers might be Tier V but they're all 7.0 to 7.3, so they'll get downtiered to 6.0-6.7 matches quick a bit so they'll be shitting on Tier 4s. Also, if you want to get technical the 183mm TD has HESH.

>it's also entirely dependent on RNG

That I know but it completely shits on the IS-6 on frontal engagements and with stabilizers means you can fuck Russian and German heavies that have a hard time getting their guns on target after stopping to shoot. HESH is on equal terms with HEAT-FS, it can kill easily but sometimes you'll get those streaks where you get non-pens or your shit just gets eaten by an optic, track, machine gun, or a crew member.

Yeah, you just kinda missed the boat on that one. I put a Talisman on it 2 years ago and basically researched the rest of the tree at that time. As more top tier tanks started coming out it became harder and harder. Nowadays I can't even be bothered to unlock the other Leo and the second ATGM.

Its whats happening with me right now. Should have grinded the fuck out of Russia after Germany but decided to stray away and do planes more, and then got more in to the US and the British. I'm with my talisman T-54-47, and Talisman T-44-100 that I got from the Winter Chronicles and its been somewhat enjoyable although with the rise in HESH and CAS, I've been slugging through to unlock the T-10M.

I've got the Maus and it's my only tier 5, but I'm thinking about grinding out the kpz70. It'd be the first time I had an absolute top tier anything, and it looks like it's gonna shrek. Also it would bide time until the lower the RP for tiers 4 and 5.

Bombs work on a LoS beam from explosion only. A 5000kg will be stopped by a destructible fence to which an ASU-57 on the other side can survive from.

I fucking hate having to carry an entire fucking team, losing because the other team basically deleted half the team halfway through the goddamn match because 3-4 guys hopped on their fair and balanced Spitfire Mk.24s.

I activated a 500% RP booster, and a 250% SL Booster and thankfully I got an alright amount of RP. I can only imagine the measly shit I would have gotten if I hadn't activated those boosters and the amazing gains I would have if our team had won.

I think I'm going to low tiers for a while after the patch comes out. Its so stressful having to carry team after team, suffering because of other people's actions. I don't think I've had a game in a while that we won and I wasn't top three. They should really increase rewards like some Anon said, for the ones in the top three for the losing team.

>M22

M8 I'm at the M24 Chaffee now, and its shit, I want that 76mm gun though, but the M41A1 is 6.3 (not 6.7 I just checked and not arcade I only play tank RB)

>>188104807
Yeah seems that if you dont get one-shotted and get in a good position you can wreck shit up but as it tends to happen I lose my main tank early in the match and the only thing left to spawn is M24 or AA and the M24 with its 75mm just doesn't cut it and is a waste.

So I want the M41A1 for the 76mm but like I said its 6.3 BR, I'm at max 5.3 BR with the M18 and I dont want to get even more uptiered just to get a better light tank, but that means that once I lose my Sherman or M18 the only option left is the M24 with its weak 75mm up against fucking Tigers, Tiger II's, T34-85, IS-1, etc.

This is actually a really fucking huge problem with the US tanks at Tier III right now, the only really other option once you die once without sufficient SPis M24 or AA vehicles, and meanwhile the M41A1 is at 6.3 BR so it means your 5.0-5.3 lineup of M4A2's and M18 faces even more shit its outiered against.

Gaijin needs to lower the M41A1 BR already holy fuck, sick of using the inferior M24 as the "second-chance" tank. I've never seen such a clearer need for a reduced BR than the M41A1 Bulldog because its desperately needed at 5.3 instead of fucking 6.3

>>188105414
And basically that 6.3 is whats keeping me from researching and unlocking it because once I do, I'll be uptiered with my M4A2 and M18's.

But the Chaffee is such shit at the 5.0 tier too, because its a fucking 3.7 BR, holy fuck I hate this grid-lock. Bulldog needs to be lowered to 5.3 at least.

>>188105169

M24 is pretty trash. If they gave in and gave it it's missing hull gunner it would be pretty good, though.

>>188105682
They're both slower than the obj906 and ru251 and faster than anything else, so comparing speed is irrelevant, and the rest of all that is also not an argument.

>>188106082

Non-premium ground vehicles won't be able to take advantage of the new QTE mechanics making Ru-251 the only viable light tank after 1.71

>>188105414
>>188105864
>Chaffee
>trash

wwhoooaaa there, guys. I think you mean wonderful? It's got probably the best transmission of any tank in that tier. Reverse goes full speed, and you can still use explosive filler shells.

I recommend flanking, something it's amazing at for it's size and power

>>188106342
>le qte maymay
>>>/r/eddit

>>188106457
Reverse speed is a meme. Penetrating enemies and not dying wins games. M24 can't do either.

>>188105414
>>188105614
Honestly I just don't even know how to proceed further at this point, kind of just want to stop playing US tanks even,

If the Bulldog was at 5.7 even I'd go for it but at 6.3 its just too much, the rest of my lineup can't match the tanks I'll be facing effectively. And it so much grinding to even get to the post-Sherman tanks.

Fucking hell.

>>188106457
Its shit m8, it fails to square up against T34's especially even when you flank. Too many times I lose my first tank without enough SP for another and all I have left is AA or M24 and the M24 is just too weak against everything it faces, and everything one-shots it.

>>188106570

>not dying

GUESS WHAT REVERSE SPEED DOES FAGGOT

>>188106679
>>188106570
Huh. There's a weird disconnect here, because I rarely use it and don't get at least one kill, often two before dying in it. It's exciting to use, for me.

>>188106740
It doesn't keep a single shot to the turret from killing you. An extra crewman would.

>>188095647
play wot and realize how much worse they have it.

>>188106679
You can uptier the m18 to 6.3 and still be competitive. Stick a bearcat in the line up and that's all you need.

>>188106774
I'd rather have the bulldog with the superior pen of the 76mm, it just feels more like it belongs at that tier and BR instead of the M24 but the huge fucking gap in the US light tanks from 3.7 M24 to 6.3 M41A1 is fucked

>>188106801

You don't get shot if you can reverse you dumb asperger

>>188106957
Lad, you always get shot eventually. Getting shot and not dying is what matters. That's why the IS-6 is better than the ru251

>>188106924
>not taking an M18 to 8.0

>>188105169
I play much better with the bulldog. I prefer the faster speed and mobility. The reload rate isn't much of a problem since you reload faster than most other vehicles you face anyways. The better crew protection point is moot because both are easily oneshotted to begin with.
Also the T92s HEAT is dogshit, so that doesn't have much weight either.

>>188105414
You have to realize mid-tier US is fucked at every single BR. You either hack through it using their 'best' vehicles and realize its always an uphill battle against Russians and Germans, or just play another nation. The M18 while overtiered now, is still usable at anyhigher BR by effectively using mobility to get around tanks and sideshot lower hull plates. The M41 is essentially the same playstyle, just you can pen turret faces of more vehicles better.

>>188107128
>>188107264

Gaijin is adding quick time events, these are basically scripted cutscenes where mashing certain buttons in the correct amount of time decides their outcome, so basically if you can mash buttons in the correct order fast enough you can kill any vehicle with any other (premium)vehicle regardless of their stats.

>>188107092
Much sooner in an IS-6 than Ru 251. Not getting shot at all is far better armor than steel.
Dumb sperg.

So it doesn't get any easier then?

Right now I'm still debating if I should focus on light tanks and Bulldog, or Medium tanks or Jumbo and heavy tanks or just stop playing US tanks altogether because its not just the BR thats the problem but how much fucking time and effort it takes to unlock a single tank even with premium, the RP rewards are pathetic.

So looking at that >>188106679
If I want to try out M41A1 to see if the US light tank line is still worth it, thats maybe 2-3 days of playing maybe more, and if I find out its not worth it and the up-tier is too much then its on to either the M4A3 76(W) or Jumbo, and the 75mm is shit so I'd want the 76mm Jumbo right after it which is another 89k RP, all while enduring the fucking curb-stomp that is playing against the soviet and germans where the win-lose ratio for the US/Brits is like 5:1.

Its all looking like a lot of effort for very little pay-off, the main problem is the fucking RP, both how much it fucking costs and how slow it takes to unlock things even at this BR. I might just quit playing multiplayer all-together until that rumored BR buff instead, whenever it comes, because I'm at a similar situation with Brit tanks.

slowtime events are going to be introduced. You'll have to set up commands and come back 16h later to check on their status

>>188108650
What do I know, I've only aced both, then aced the t92 again first when crew memebers became an unlock. The fact that you're not bemoaning the slightly slower speed makes me think that you don't actually know what you're talking about.

Showtime events are being introduced. You'll join a custom , drive your tank in front of a movie screen, and watch and episode of Dexter together.

Why the fuck is every 7.0 game being uptiered to 7.3? Is everyone just planning some other tier until 1.71 drops?

Glowtime events are being introduced. A timer will appear, and when it finishes counting down, the whole map will automatically go to night and every tank will look like it's from Tron.

>>188109305
Flood of higher BR tanks because everyone rushing grinds for tier 6.

So it says the IS-3 has a smoke screen but I cant find any pictures of it?

Rowtime events are being introduced. All we can really tell you about it so far without spoiling too much is... bring a boatplane!

Moetime events are being introduced, all crew models will become cute anime girls from GuP and your tank skin changes to the school you choose to represent in Senshado!

Winner gets a Type 90.

Go through the heavy tank line. Unlike USA mediums, these ones won't actually be penetrated frontally by nearly any vehicle. While the 90mm still sucks ass, at least you can take a hit or two. Besides that, the M41, T92 and Sheridan are all great if used properly. If you're going to get frontally oneshotted in a medium tank, might as well just do it in a speedy go kart.

It could be worse. You could be the Jap tree. I'm currently grinding the STB. It's a true sort of Hell.

The M41 can still hulldown you dumb mong.
>implying that will even save the T92 when a Russian APHE hits your breach and splashes down into the crew compartment.

>>188108358
It's shit against the KTH turret face though, which is what you want to get hit before you get turned to smouldering scrap.

Funny that it took Gaijin this long to folder just a few of the complete shitboxes that are the T25 through M48.

Then they shouldn't have released half a tree. There are legimately more Italian bombers than fighters. The Italian tree was so low effort from them. Half of the tree was already in the game.

The fuck is going on here?

M41 Bulldog is fine where it is at in 6.3. If anything it should be 6.0 but that's it. T92 should go to 6.3 though. M24 Chaffee is great if you use it at the BR it was intended. Of course its fucking trash if you use it in 5.7 games.

The best way to progress through the US Tree is through using shekels to get the T29 or just slap a Talisman on the M18 Hellcat and unlock all of Tier IV. That's how I did it, just bought the Cobra King(Back when it was 5.3) and put a Talisman on the Hellcat. Did 5.3 through 6.3 matches till I got the M41 Bulldog, the M36, and the M4A3E2 76W. That's a solid 6.3 line-up, back in the day anyways.

The grind was fucking hell back then, can only imagine how much worse its gotten these days.

Either way, it must be hell for new players starting the game nowadays. Things were easier back then when there wasn't that much bullshit. I seriously wonder whats the percentage of players that quit around Tier 3 within each Nation.

Yes, some planes get a tremendous amount of boost from the final upgrades while others are fine already early on.
Especially in >AB.

Also HP is accurate, but climb rate and turn time not so much. (Depends on too much factors)

>>188119142
The other goy showed the AB stat card.

The difference between fully upgraded and non-upgraded in RB is like 200HP per engine.
In AB the difference is like 400HP per engine.
A completely different class.

He also had spawn protection on, didn't he?

Fuck, I just played tier 5 air RB, and whatever map it was - it was too small for jets to properly accelerate in time. Within a minute some Canberras ambushed our team when we're still way below optimal speed.

reggiane's fucking when

Spading Brit tanks... I've been placing first on my team... with a single kill.

The joy of kill-assists I guess... but I still wish Gaijin would sort out the damage on mid-tier British tanks. I win about 65% of the time in other countries tanks, but with Brits it's down to less than 10%.

wow this thread is garbage
