Tanks, but no tanks...

Tried it a few years back, got to about tier 3, decided I didn’t care for the transmission busting back and forth tactics. Too twitchy for my old hands (and brain).

I was... Then I deactivated my page and I can't get in now. Same with Pub-G. Really bummed about that, but I found a new game! It's not as fast as these other two, not as flashy, kinda boring, but it can take up a 15-20 minute gap in your schedule. It's call Solitaire. Check it out! Sssssss/

I used to play a number of years ago as well....maybe 5 or 6. Might be time to pick it back up. My handle was BattleBull.

I used to play about a year and a half ago but quit due to the toxic community. Most of that stemmed from the mod that allowed seeing win%. They implemented the ability to turn off chat (which says a lot for a “team” game), but what’s the point? How is the community now?

you need a new firing solution

That’s what I am talking about. Pointing at the sky and hoping for the best does not seem to work. LOL

Thanks I will give it a try.

War Thunder is way better.

My plan is to move to that after I get my chops back up on WOTs. I have not gammed in 6 years as my computer and internet connection were laughably out of date.

Now I have rearmed with a new wicked fast gamming computer. As far as I am concerned every enemy tank I see has a dem or a GOPe driving it and I am coming for them, and hell is coming with me. It would just be helpful if I could aim.

I played using Aslain’s modpack so it may be different for you.

Try TANKI....free and far better than W O T

Thanks I will check it out. In all the time I played WOTs (over 1000 missions)I never gave them a dime.

Stopped playing because teammates keep killing me

I feel the same way about the GOP.

If you want to get your twitch reflexes back play 2016 Doom. It forces you to play that way but guides you into it.

I have quite a bit. Favorites are the light sniper destroyers like the Hellcat and the Charioteer. I havent been able to play for about 6 months because I keep getting kicked off the server.

Thanks but those are regular tanks, I got that down. Artillery works differently and give you a areal view of the target from above.

I do. But I have to ask real world tankers... do real world shells bounce off armor that much? I can be landing shot after shot - even flanking shots and they just bounce right off and meanwhile it seems like I’m driving a cardboard tank most of the time - two or three shots and I’m knocked out. Can be really frustrating. I grinded my butt off to get the feared King Tiger and it was the same thing! Put me off of the game for a while.

I do love my M4 Sherman, though. =)

I have the same problem that's why I love artillery. You just find a quite spot and snipe.

Let the young guns run around with their hare on fire.

I was amazed to find my old user name and passwords still worked and I still had all my stuff. They even gave me a bunch of gold and credits since I had been there for over 10 years.

Its been a long winter and I need to do something other that watching the news. Killing dem tank drivers releases my stress.
