Update "Scorching Rays"

Sounds like an issue of reload times, not BR.

Having a turret is huge, if you don’t agree… well I don’t know what to tell you. A open top, unarmoured vehicle with no turret and no MG that has to expose its entire self to fire, no cover to hide behind when shooting, no wall to look over, you’re an easily accessible target that dies instantly if anything sneezes in your direction.

And in return you get… a faster reload. Not a “fast reload”, just faster than something else that happens to do something similarly.

Yeah, no not equal, should just have gotten a reload speed nerf.

Excuse me, but I wonder, those who did the update will have testers, but don’t you see that it is unplayable in DirectX 12? What are you doing implementing ray tracing for aesthetics? Then this issue with the server kicking me out is intolerable with all the euros I’ve spent but no one else notices anything, is it just me?!?!?!

That giant barn of a turret is actually pretty good at making sure your crew isn’t sniped by a rifle or random shrapnel

Kv 2 should have gotten heat and faster reload + working hatch for tt variant so it can stay in br 4

Agree to disagree, id trade a Fking barn of a turret thats spottable from space for TRIPLE THE FIREPOWER anytime.

It didnt have Heat IRL, And this slippery slope of inventing new technologies for WW2 im not a fan of.
Its finally usable in BR3, (since BR4 doesnt exist as a tier). ROF buff to 24 secs would give it 2.3x the SIG firepower vs 3+x currently; that part is hard to analyze.

Personally I didnt mind the SIG at BR2, but with the caveat it prob should not be abusing new players at BR1.

Is BR1 a separate tier thing yet?

It’s an event vehicle, I’ve have only fought against it a few times, and it honestly wasn’t a problem.

Sturmpanzer can’t survive direct hits against it’s exposed ammo rack. While KV-2 can eat multiple HEAT/HE shells from it’s cannon. Sturmpanzer ii cannon is pathetic and only works well once per match when you wipe out entire enemy team while in any other situation it struggles and explode against anything. It’s a BR2 vehicle.

It saddens me that Chi-nU II is still in BR IV; they’re going to eat it.

But I understand they gave some gold bonuses when I downloaded the update. I got the notification but they didn’t give me anything. Did this happen to anyone else?

Or you can whale and buy Dickermax and hit and kill in 90% of your shots against enemy tanks. Germany is staying as a whaling nation while all free stuff gets taken away or uptiered and killed.

This.

Devs keep breaking up battle rating… when the solution was always to let (most) things as they were…

But make br matchmaker +/-0.

Trade all your armor to get that fast reload speed and get 1hk from any enemy no matter the BR. Trade all that reload speed for underperforming HEAT/HE rounds against enemy tanks where you need to guess if your shell going to pen their tank or not. Trade all your ammo capacity for what? For nothing you also don’t have hull MG (like premium KV-2).

I would rather stick to my Dicker max at least it’s APCBC round is extremely reliable and going to 1hk both KV-1 and T-34/Sherman instead of tickling them and making them slowly barbeque while they aim at my hull and nuke me in single hit, then eject, extinguish it and go back to slaying my team.

There are no abuse from sig as it can get destroyed by BR1 tanks and at rifles, at guns, planes + just rushing at it with melee weapon will do the trick. Hell a single molly should make it instantly go in flames and explode. Putting it at BR3 will make it unplayable. And Soviets are seal clubbing newbies like crazy with T-28 double combo

It’s weaker against infantry than any short 75mm that also has access to hull and top MG.

Of course. All of them are owned by Gaijin and are Gaijin employees they just pretend that they are something else to remove bad PR from Gaijin as they are totally Matter Team or Dark Flow.

“poor Gaijin it’s not your fault! it was fault of those indie devs they support! now preorder new ovepriced WT pack”

Stuff that didn’t exist wasn’t introduced?

Wow that’s surprising, isn’t it?

T-34-152 and AK-45 with 100 round mag also were not added.

tbf a (prototype) japanese AR would feel way more authentic than a sawed off M2C. which did exist, just as a prototype

Another update with NO new content for Germany and I also don’t see the Rof and ammo increases on German MGs.

It’s incredible that Germany doesn’t have its AT BR V gun yet…

USSR and Japan have had PLACEHOLDER British and German AT guns for about a YEAR now

But hey we got the much requested Ray Tracing at 30 FPS and the authentic Japanese Tiger though :clown_face:

They are as temporal as the tax increase in my country from 8% to 21% and then to 23% “temporal for 3 years” and then it stayed that way for past 14 years. See ya in 2040 when we will finally get new AT guns.
