Tanks of choice Am using mainly Type 1 (great for racking up the Dominance points, distracting enemy tanks so your team mates can get their shots in (if they know what they're doing) and nothing nicer that popping up in someone's six and getting a few shots in on the rear armour. Next favourites are KV1 for my Heavy (quicker than Tiger2) and Sherman for my Medium; though I'm seeing a lot of T34s being used - why? When upgrading the last slot on things like armour and speed don't appear to always give any increase in relevant attribute. Any ideas what you're getting on that last upgrade? Cheers
Maybe it's the simple math or maybe there is a random advantage... Who knows unless someone really tries to count the difference manually. Kv1 is not quicker than tiger2.
Gameplay advice So, I'm having a really hard time earning enough upgrade points in this game - single player, Type 1 - seems like I get maximum a few hundred after replaying missions. And the upgrades require far more than that. Multiplayer, I'm hopelessly slow compared with the other players and seem to get finished off with just one hit. I've taken out a few enemy tanks here and there, and strategised to flank or circle round to take out enemies while the team engages in frontal assault - but usually I just get killed several times over. Can anyone either a) sympathise or b) - better - give some advice? As someone already posted - maybe I'm just really bad at driving tanks.
you definitely need to play MP if you like to earn more points.You get much more than in SP. And i would say focus on just one tank until it's fully upgraded. I had a look at my stats now:29 hours just with just the Sherman,lol.Nothing bad about this tank. I won most of my matches.I would love to see more stats (K/D ratio etc.) i spent roundabout 2 hours in all other tanks together... I want the Tiger I.And i would love to play more king of the hill etc. suggestion:it should be more clear in the summary who was in wich team etc.It looks all the same like it is now.
Just keep putting in the time and you will get the points. I found in single player playing King of the Hill seems to get me the most points. Of course multiplayer will get you a ton more. Good luck.
Sad to point it out. But yes you are playing poorly. When I first started I was in the same boat and new to the genre also realizing multiplayer is the way to earn points. As for strategy: if you are using a camping technique then camp properly and close in with your team until you feel confident to go solo. As for aggressive approach with type1... You will have to have Asian blood . Or else it will take time as a learning experience. Type1 is the way to go to be godly.
I wish they would remove our names and any indication on radar until discovered. It's pointless trying to use a stealth technique by avoiding knocking down trees or even firing unnecessarily since they can already see you a mile away. There's really no strategy other than hit and run or camp and hide.
I've been using and upgrading the t34 mostly. Which is best out of the tiger vs kv1? Should I wait to unlock the kv1 or begin using and fully upgrading the tiger?
In my opinion tiger is by far better. People do disagree with me. But look at my stats. I am always best player in game.
Re:advice Thanks to everyone for the advice so far. Very much appreciated - will keep on playing and hopefully get better!
I am pretty sure I found a bug: The automatic aim continues to turn itself on whenever I enter a game, even though it is still labeled as off in the menu. To fix it, I have to turn it on and off again. It's pretty annoying having my turret centered all the time.
let us choose game mode in game center MP match plz we want some free for all within a 4 person close circle gaming time
I'm driving M18. Is it the worest tank? I have to shoot countless times to get a kill, but be killed by only 2 shots in MP. And the worest thing is some tank they can simple come and crush my tank without firing a single shoot.
I think Ive found something similar or we are both speaking of the same flaw. When using the zoomed in aiming tool it tends to get stuck and doesn't allow me to look around in zoomed I'm aiming mode. And to fix the bug I must pause the game and then unpause and it starts to work again. Please fix it since it gets annoying in head to head fights.
They are comparable heavy tanks. Tiger has better armor but lower health than kv1, and kv1 is a bit more nimble and also reloads a bit faster. Overall I like kv1 better. Btw got my General of the Army rank, but it's a loooonnnggg way to reach the top rank, supreme commander (or like I call it, Kim Jong Un rank). Wonder how many players have reached it legitimately at this point.
I tried the tiger but it reloads way to slow for my style of play. The t34 seems to be a good all round tank when upgraded. Can someone explain what each stat icon means? I know some are obvious but some I don't get. Thanks
i'm an allround fan so l still love the sherman and saving my upgrade points now (currently 90k)for the IAP's.So hopefully they release something that interests me so i can spend all my points to upgrade the new ones^^ But i can't say how a fully upgraded Panzer III or T34 plays.They seem definitely weaker than the sherman when i'm in a 1:1 fight.But i can't say if they are always fully upgraded or not.The T34 seems to have an advantage in speed over the sherman.True?But what about the PIII? I don't understand the descision for the panzer III instead of Panzer IV.Because historically that was the counterpart to the T34 or Sherman.The PIII's cannon was too weeak with just 5cm. Of course,i'm pretty sure we will see this one as IAP.And i'll buy it in a heartbeat ;-) I tried the Tiger 2 after a few upgrades but it's just too slow for my taste (reloading too).And i'm not sure if it's psychological but i have always a harder time to fight against a(n upgraded)KV1.It also has a much less remarkable and lower silhouette than a T2 and makes it harder to realize on higher distances.Though i'm more often suprised from a KV1 than a T2 And yes,i have to admit that the Type 1 can be a pest if driven by a skilled player,lol. It seems the MP game got a bit tougher during the last week or so.I guess even many of the part time player have all or most of the upgrades for a tank now
I don't have trouble aiming while in sniper view, it just likes to reset my turret forward in third person. As an extra note, I've enjoyed abusing the model-based cover in the port city map. Find a piece of rubble with a gap in it that faces down one of the streets, and you are golden. Also, I wonder if the Africa update will include the tank on the icon (an IS-2, if I'm correct). If it does, that 122mm cannon will be amazing!
