wait till you shoot down a CL13 jet, then you can say you mastered the game. The Ho.229 is worse to fly then your F-82E.

So apparently the I-301 is a rank 1 Soviet premium that has a battle rating of 2.3..

it has 2 7.62mm machineguns..
and 2 12.7mm machineguns..
AND a 23mm cannon..

Not OP at all..
I'd rather play Kimble with my ass!

Pissed with Gaijin because they don't fix the goddamn downloader. It keeps disrupting my connection and it's a pain in the ass to restore it. Not playing this game until they do something about that.

Unlocked the M41 some days ago and I've been playing some simulator in it, it's pretty good and fun. Good at flanking and the gun has a very high velocity so aiming at large distances is easy.

However, it suffers from the obvious drawbacks for a light tank; shells don't do much damage unless you hit ammo racks or the engine, and you won't survive much if any return fire. Then there's the same problem light tanks have in World of Tanks: they're only good in certain maps. In Ash River for example, it kinda sucks because it can't flank anyone.

And of course there's still the retarded minimap spotting which makes flanking kind of impossible against anyone who isn't a complete retard. I've lost count of how many times I spent 5 minutes driving around the map to flank a camping Jagdpanther only to eventually run up to it with it's gun pointing at me...

Still won 9/9 so far, although that might be due to the stack teams of M26 Pershings I've been getting who seem to eat the Germans for breakfast rather than my M41 being insanely good.

It's fun, it's good, but because of some game mechanics and maps it's not nearly as good and fun as it could've been.

It was arcade and I did it in a P-47 iirc. He tried to head on for some reason and I just tossed rockets at him. Fucked me up a bit but I managed to survive

Got back to WT since... 2013 or so. Before tanks came along anyway.

Damn I had fun last night, 6 hours straight popping tanks! Loving it so far!  ;D

Got the M26 Pershing now, fun tank. Jack-of-all-trades that is best used shooting at the sides of the Germans (ideally using gun depression in hull down positions) but it can penetrate the front armor of Tiger IIs with the special shells if need be. It usually faces Tigers and Panther Ds though which are no match for the Pershing.

Its engine sucks though, while mobility is still kind of good there is one major drawback... It can't go up most hills. Halfway through the engine stalls and you roll back down again. I couldn't even drive up the road leading up to the hill of the northwestern spawn on Karelia.

M46 Patton should fix this problem but I also fear its matchmaking will be higher. Not sure if it will be good enough to justify facing better opponents.

Being an US tank at 5.0, i am really shunned at how my enemy tanks look like. I am fighting half a team of panthers and tigers wich are a bloody tough nut to crack. I dont fear the IS-1 or T34-85. But seriously, i know why i was doing so well in german tanks now..They frikking own anything their tier. Seeing US players with pershings saying "it wont get much better"

Goddddammit...

Pershing owns Tiger II....
And Whats the problem with that? thats a very poorly constructed post you made there.

Both have simular BR ratings. The KT can penetrate any part, the Pershing has to aim at the turret with the HVAP shell
