What are your skills/equipment?

BIA/vents combo really helped my performance in the IS7, the gun is noticeably better. Running vents/stab/rammer and I think snapshot and smooth ride*, and of course BIA. I've heard that optics are good on the IS7 but I'm not good enough at vision to leverage them so I just threw vents on since I'm usually brawling with it anyway.

The gun feels lacking sometimes but with APCR and good equipment/skills you can minimize the derpy gun.

*IIRC smooth ride is only effective when you're moving in a straight line (not pressing A/D)

I have BIA, have vents.  I have a 4 skill crew, I have smooth ride, off road driving, I am working on snapshot.  I might switch to all APCR now on it and be a scrublord now that my prem acct is back, i was firing mostly AP w/out prem because credits :/ the gun just takes forever to aim and even if you do, the shell still goes to the outer part of the reticle... shit's frustrating when it consistently happens.

I 3MoE it with 4 skill + BIA,Vents,stab and rammer. The IS7 is a fuck your face, imma gunna hull down, face hug you into submission. The trick is to learn to position so you can use your Stalinium turret to properly aim. Optics are shit on it, do not recommend. Full APCR also. 

Heres a 17 game 6k wn8/5k dmg 3MoE session.

sounds like the arguments people cite in favor of XVM but whatever floats your boat m8

Could be, but I don't run XVM because it tilts me really easy, call me crazy.  If I see the enemy team stacked or some shit like that, I automatically will be pessimistic and not try as hard I find, like I'm just accepting my fate of losing.  I COULD run it and base my predictions on one's reliability as a player off their XVM rating, but I rather take the approach of "everyone is helpful until proven harmful." Once they prove themselves as harmful, I block them, and from that moment on, I recognize that player as harmful.

I don't run XVM either, that's the thing

2 line, faceroll on their faces.

Middle if you want to be a bully to enemy meds/LTs, but then you can't snipe for shit because RU tank.

that's what i figured

Complaints about mission's effect on the game are overblown. You might get annoyed at some of the more RNG-based ones if you try to do it, but if you decide to not do them, you'll rarely notice.

same shit, different number

wow I actually like my A 43. So much speed.

you have sanic speed, just don't get hit.

the a-43 is essentially a light tank with more hp

A44 is even worse. And the engine dies with it as well

burnedfungus lol. I love his sig image (some random pubbie saying that mawderator wears cardigans)

It also took me a while to realize that the bulba twitch isn't Bulba Represent. For a while I thought it was Bulba are present

You aren't the first one to think that haha

stay protected then, dont get overextended.

yup, I had to learn that after about 10 games... when you can get penned in the gun mantlet by M3 Lees, it quickly makes you adjust your playstyle

It's not a bad tank, but basically a shitty Cromwell. Almost identical playstyle.

Doesn't that have ~9000+ DPM though?

yeah, with 1000 pen to go along with that...

Unanimous conclusion, thanks

T-44 is a better tank, but 416 unlocks the top gun of T-54.
