Yes, "big guy" relative to my MS-1, it being the smallest tank in those battles. Jesus do you want me to draw you a fuckin picture?
I got behind either a TD or SPG, can't recall which, got him to 7% and I think it was an SPG that 1-shot'd me, I was probably 1/4 second away from firing. At the time it would have been my first kill.

Anyone know of a place still giving away keys, I got one but a buddy of mine was wanting to try it out as well.
It's entertaining, but makes me crave a good tank simulation.

Yup. It's a massive difference when you get the StuG, which does s constant 40km/h on flat ground.

No kidding, the Hetzer is crap. i barely played it and used my gold to transfer xp form my PzJ 1 so i could unlock the StuG asap. Much much better.

Playing this game all day and enjoying the hell out of it. I just want more nationalities to use / fight against. Can't wait for the U.S. tanks (think they're coming next) and whatever comes after that.
I just can't figure out what I like playing the most.
Scouting in a super fast tank is fun, especially blowing off some huge tanks treads with a ninja HE round as I zip by at 70 KM/H.
I enjoyed and hated (depending on the map) playing a TD. Super accurate shots and sneaking around the bushes is fun. Having a super fast light tank suddenly zip past and spot you can be a nightmare, though, since the SPG fire is gonna come any second after that.
I dig medium tanks, too. Pretty sure I want at least one of my "main" tanks on release to be a Panther or a T-44. Have to drive one yet, though.
SPGs ... I want to play them, too, but they get such a bad rap for being OP that I just stay away. I've noticed that they easily dominate rookie battles with one-shot kills, but so far in the Standard battles they end up doing very few kills. Instead, they act like awesome support -- often knocking a heavy tank's turret out for a few seconds, or blasting the treads off of a medium or something. Not many one-shot kills, in fact, not many SPGs at all after rookie. More than half of my battles are SPG-free. Why?
Anyway, yeah, fuck you guys for showing this to me. Going to playing this all week now.

SPGs are definately not the superweapons they are in recruit when you play standard. As you say they're more support weapons. I think the main reason not as many play them in standard is because they depend on others to protect them from close enemies.

Also SPGs end up being really expensive and the fact is that they rarely get any better when going up the tiers. Got myself a SU-8 and i'm far from impressed with it.

I am not sure what Tank Destoryers can do that Medium tanks can not, they seem to be just as good at destroying tanks, more mobile and better armored. And they are cheaper to maintain. Most of the battles are mid-close range anyway. Specially the german VK300's seem to be very powerful for a medium tank.

its one thing to compare t5-t6 medium vs t3-t4 td, and say well this td is shit..
whole another is to take same t5-t6 and compare to t5-t6 tds..
at same tiers, td will outshoot you in long range, will most likely out tank you too, since of their superb front armor and sloped armor, on close range they will turn as fast as your " already "slow medium can go
sure i eat t3-t4 tds with my t6, second i see jagpanzer or jagpanther i'm fleeing..

I have no problem sniping even heavy tanks in my StuG. It's all about the long-range with the TDs. Preferrably range where they can't even be seen while shooting.

So i tried that game seeing how it get praise here.
And i think it sucks badly.. This game is all about camping with the big bad SPGS.
I cant even drive my pathetic slowass starting bucked of bolts a mile before its blown by something a mile off.. So i dont thing its pretty enjoyable when that happens every game.

If it happens every game, maybe you should, you know, try a different way of playing?

PzJgIV is a great tank, i would get it. Basically a much better armored StuG and with the 88mm cannon, it can actually hurt heavy tanks.

The JagdPanzer IV is much, much better than the StuG. A little bit slower, but it can actually survive a couple of hits, and it quite regularly bounces 75mm shells.
I believe it also has a higher firerate with the high-velocity 75.
Oh, and don't use the first 88mm. It's pretty bad, and just a massive money waster. It's less accurate, fires slower, only does about 70 or so more damage, and it has less penetration.

Well, you already got a huge amount of gold. I would go for it if I were you. Btw, the cap for maximum gold is 3000.
