The M40/43 is something of an improvement, but now you're trading slightly better traverse and aim and a tad more accuracy for an absolutely atrocious reload/ dpm. The 53/55 is to the M40/43 what the M44 is to the M41. You're looking at good accuracy, decent reload at tier, gun traverse for DAYS, and decent mobility.

Seriously, rundown on my arty.
M44 - 53.23% WR
M12 - 44.83%
M40/43 - 45.49%
M53/55 - 55.87%

I'm an OK arty player, nothing to write home about, but the M12 and 40/43 are turkeys.

That's reassuring. I knew the M12 was lousy, but I was worried that I was doing something wrong with the M40/M43 but I see that is probably more game related. My problem is getting enough damage in it for a good WN8 score. When a shot doesn't even land in the circle in the M40/M43, it's another 43 seconds to reload, so, assuming that the next one WILL hit, it ends up being 1.5 to 2 minutes between shots that do damage. Hitting a target and only doing between 100 and 200 damage isn't exactly anything to cheer about. That's so insulting that I sometimes wish that I just missed.

See my edit on the quoted post. ETA: something else to think about is that the M53/55 is unique of the American Arty in that it will take fans. That gives you 5% on the TC and 6% on everybody else due to the TC bonus. On top of that, BIA is normally a third skill candidate for most tanks. With arty, it is neck and neck with camo, and since BIA doens't do you a lick of good until it's at 100%, I usually get an arty crew high enough on camo to retrain, slap BIA on 'em, then restart arty. If you're in somebody's view range, that fucker is gonna light when you crank off a round unless his crew is blind as fuck.

Also, save the Cola Cases you get from missions, crack out the crew occaisionally. With a cracked out, vented, BIA crew, well...

No, fuck the arty mission. Arty can go die in a fire. I hate loading in with 4 on each side less than actually having to play it. I cannot make it work. Yes I have the mod everyone raves about. I still can't hit the broad side of a barn. Fully aimed negligible amount of space around the tank in aim circle. Shoots over, shoots short, shoots outside the fucking circle. Or it hits them and I do 200 damage on a 950 av DMG gun. Fuck. Arty.  
Why don't you and Zoomie consider trading accounts for a night?  You complete some heavy missions, he'll knock out some arty missions. win/win

 


That's actually one of the better ideas I've heard all day.
I'm down for that. On duty tonight so no tanks and then I get on 64 and head east till I hit the Atlantic....literally. I'll be back in a week and we can try it out.

 



Oh, don't worry. I won't sell the 304. It's too much fun.

OK, I see the gun & elevation arcs mirror those of the M44. The wide gun arc is what I miss moving up from the M44. With the M12 & M40/M43, you rotate the vehicle and your aiming circle opens wide up again and you start from scratch. With the 65 degree elevation, I assume that means the M53/M55 has more of an arc and has a better chance of hitting targets behind cover?

Exactly. Although the super high elevation only really helps in the mid-range area. Short range, you're gonna be basically TD mode. At the extreme edge of your range, you're obviously going to be at a 45° elevation. right about, oh, I'd say about 400-600m is where you're going to see the benefit of this.

Psoriatic arthritis Mimics Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Been dealing with this since i was 18. 33 now and working full time trying to get thru the day which is painful when i get off in the morning the swelling in my feet and legs is unbearable at times.

one of the reasons i am contantly cranky bitch or moody. hence the i stay a loner part.

So glad that it gets better after the M12.  I kinda like the M12 except for the HORRIBLE accuracy.  Firing arc is great compared to the SU-14-2 lol

What line is it going to be?  




It has to be a new French Med line
Very cool. Hopefully they just split it off the Lorraine. If they do, I'll definitely grind it out  
Same.

I meant to ask. Since the special game mode patch hit my client has been FUBAR. None of the boxes at the top show. I can only see the platoon button, the server I am on and the battle button. Everything else is blank. I can't see the free xp, credits or even my own name. For instance I've taken to killing retards who want to stick their gun barrel thru mine while I'm in top down mode in arty. So, I need to see if I  blue or not.

Haven't even played today. Been dealing with a personal situation today that has already put my blood pressure up to levels hither to unknown to man. The last thing I need to do is have a stroke because of this game.

25ts are notoriously trolly--all kinds of weird bounces, usually at the least opportune moments (like when i have 380hp remaining, and he has 1 shot left).

Get the big gun and let the fun begin. It is seriously OP. Its a tier 6 TD that hitsbas hard as all the other tier8 TD's from other countries. The line only gets better IMHO.



When you decide to get the su152 or the su100m1, get both. They are both good lines. The 152 line is all about DAT alpha with long reloads. The 100m1 line is about DPM and mobility. That line can shoot and scoot fairly well

Quickybaby is a better player and has more information in his videos that Jingles.  Jingles video are fun to watch but he tends to be a bit long winded IMO.

Umm, Circonflexes, SirFoch, Zeven are the guys to imitate. All very purple, all livestream/youtube. Circon is more entertainment, but his commentary can teach you alot, as he can make even the shittiest tanks in the game work. Foch has reviews, can be abrasive, but you can learn a lot. He usually streams with Circon & PointyHairedJedi. Zeven is -G- and does a late US stream, his youtube vids are basically all about teaching you the strats and map reading. That's where the breakthroughs are in this game, reading the map, knowing the enemy team, and applying damage/kills to the right place.

I started off with Nethervvoid and Jingle's reviews, watched som QB, but when I discovered Circon's livestream that's where I really started to pick up on stuff. Get Twitch app on your phone and listen to it while you work.

Try out the 122mm on the SU152. Some hate it but I actually enjoyed it. Pack some APCR with it for sure. Just at least try them. Good luck man, have fun.

With the SU-152, I did best with the top 122 gun. After I got the ISU, I just shot straight gold from the 152 until I got the BL-10.

Just proves what a sad arty the GW Tiger P is when it only took 3100 damage to get ACE.  This arty is really testing my patience.  Tiny arc ( think obj 261) and very slow to aim.

Have there been any updates with what they are planning for the Brit med line?

Something interesting is the use of females in the illustrations.  Is it just humor, or attempt to keep the user's interest?

I enjoyed all of them.  SU-100 is still in my garage, I ply it frequently.

Stop at the 704.  The Tier 10 is just outclassed by everything around it.  I haven't found anything in the tier that can't pen straight through the front of it.  I seldom play it now.

It's not worth the price, the tier costs, etc.
