Large caliber SPGs

Anyone else noticing the amount of Chinese players that just play large caliber SPGs like M44, M55, Sturer Emil/Dicker Max, SU/ISU152, etc, and simply hide behind a hill, wait until targets aren’t looking, fire, and hide again (in mid BRs at least)? Seems to be a preference for SPGs with high likelihood to one shot kill.

They generally won’t even risk a peak if they know someone’s looking and often play ULTRA safe. That’s all they do all game.

Yeah, I get that’s a good way not to get killed, but is it out of trying to build a higher than average K/D ratio or something else?

for fun mostly. the rest vehicles are not so fun compared to these, for some players, team spirit is not so important, so they just play to enjoy themselves.

Its pretty fun to use the derp guns.

If they wanted to stat pad, there are much easier/faster ways to go about it.

That’s how you’re supposed to play them anyway, driving around in these things is suicidal

SPG should be played in that way, add Impact point on map to them, or something like ballistic computer in ARMA3 is fun

Yes I get that that’s how those vehicles are supposed to be played, but my question was more a case of why so many Chinese players gravitate to those particular vehicles? I don’t see so many of them playing medium or light tanks at these BRs. Maybe heavies at times.

I guess it was more a question of “is that the way many Chinese players prefer to play?”. Low risk.

because that’s habit, We can have a cup of tea and touch LMB to take a gambling, many Chinese players like playing SPG in WOT, it dont need a lot brain thinking, play to relax.

another same thing is, We rather like going to Air RB because We can browse tiktok or some other apps while climbing in beginning

play warthunder, especially toptier, fast pace make people very tired you know

What a lovely group of players…

they just KD warriors

I haven’t really noticed that, probably just personal preference and the fact that u get better rewards for playing well. I’m sticking with the XM800T spam tho, no matter how much I get obliterated

to be fair, this kind is very normal
I’m sure most people often see players with just light tank and CAS planes, if can’t get in CAS, they quit after 1 death

When will people stop with those anti chinese (or any other group) prejudgments?
