How maaany T10's!?!

Not that many, my record has been 9 or 10 per side back in the beta :p

Worst part is that I was in a Panther (Tier 8 at the time). Never felt so useless in a WoT game :(

Also, that game is clearly nuttah's fault.
 
So I bought a Bison tier 2 arty the other week as I wanted to try it and after a couple of games I hated it because I couldn't hit anything while aiming so I gave up.

Well Yesterday I decided to give it another go as I thought I must have been missing something. I was!! I did realise there was a map aiming view using left shift :rolleyes::D (Yes i'm a pillock!!). So much more fun now.

Also levelling through the german line of tanks, currently on Tier IV grinding my way to tier V.
 
I think some people get to much higher tier without realising there is arty mode.

Other tips; hold right mouse button to lock your turret when looking around. You can use it while turning too; not sure if it saves some shrinkage.
X is handbreak.

Wow thanks for the tips, didn't know about those either :p

I was levelling german TD, currently on the Hetzer and about half way to T5 but I was getting a bit bored with it so have decided to switch to my PzKpfw 38 nA. Going to level this up along with Arty I think.

I think it does but not a great deal because the tanks turn so quickly. You won't really notice any benefit until you're using the GW Tiger or Type E. They turn so much lower that you can lock the gun and turn the tank and sometimes lose hardly any accuracy at all.
 
Urgh, I don't know why I decided to fire up WoT as a quick break from this presentation.

Several teams of complete retards leaving me to defend alone, leaving a side open or dying en mass and **** matchmaking leaving me as cannon fodder. Not a single win in 6 matches. Now I'm just ****ed off.

are you in one of the tier 4 lights that are classed as scouts ?

Isn't that any T4 light tank, regardless of how **** it is? It was so depressing playing the A-20 or Pz38nA after the T-50 or Leopard. The actual scout tanks are better in every conceivable way. The rest of them can't even scout properly.

Funnily enough I'm currently in the Pz38na trying to get the xp for the next tier which is a medium. I had 5 games full of t6-9 tanks and it's hard to scout as its not that quick or manoeuvrable. Then I take 1 hit and I'm out. Just have to put up with it and grind to the t5.

find a bush near where you think the front line will be and hide just behind it, don't move or fire after you get there, the enemy shouldn't see you until they are around 50m away from you.

hopefully your team will shoot anything you spot before it gets close enough to spot you and you will get xp to the equivalent of half of what the damage your team mates are doing.

Been there done that, it's an awful tank, the PZIV is better then you get the good VK3601 which is a keeper.

Great in theory but doesn't work most of the time. Most of these wannabe scout tanks don't have the speed or manoeuvrability to get to useful spotting locations. Even if you manage it, half the time the enemy cannon fodder scout tanks (or even the REAL enemy scout tanks) have an annoying habit of finding you.
 
I agree with Evil, even with 100% camo crew, no moving (not even the turret) on the t-50-2 I quite often get spotted from more than 50m away. Kinda pointless really...yet when I'm getting hit by a Maus I can't see its ******* ridiculous.The whole spotting system is another reason why I'm liking this game less and less.
