maybe from 10ft away and at a sideon angle but practically, in a real game scenario there is ZERO chance you are preventing a 2S38 or BMP-2M from killing you by 50 cal’ing it

:c the only thing fun in the british top tier lineup and now it’s functionally useless

Fun to use, infuriating to fight against. Starstreaks should get a penetration buff to compensate.

Fairly certain they were ahistorically nerfed to limit their AT abilties already :D

Though more so the Stormer couldnt be used as an ATGM launcher

This also aligns with my memory of starstreaks.

Gentlemen it seems that the common issue that keeps arising can be easily solved:
Step 1: clean your ears
Step 2: clean your headset
Step 3: go to your local optician
Step 4: use prescribed glasses
Result = situational awareness greater than that of colourblind hedgehogs in a bag

This simple 4 step program can let you hear a fox coming around a corner, see the fox down the street or better yet, both at once!

The fox is less noticable than nearly every other light tank. It isn’t super quiet, it just blends in a ton.

Can’t see something that is behind me 30 seconds after I spawn.

It’s not like I can use armour against it in the tanks I play, I just need to hope I can get the first shot off, and have it not tank whatever I shoot at it.

That’s why the glasses help

I do believe your camera has 360° turning ability

I was talking about the sound, sorry if I wasn’t clear.

yeah lemme look behind me all the time, im sure that would work out perfectly

I don’t find it OP, it is just infuriating to die to. I don’t play any tanks that have armour, so if I don’t see it, I’m dead.

Dare I say this… Is this not true for all tanks?

You are correct, but atleast with those I either die right away, or survive the shot (and maybe have a chance to fire back.

With the fox, I don’t die right away, but I also can’t shoot back in time.

It’s just very annoying.

I’ve always found the Wiesel 1A2, especially covered in bushes far far more annoying. (fairly certain there is something similar at a lower BR as well, but cant recall what it is)

Are you deaf too? If its a flanking action you should hear the engine noise, if you keep getting ambushed learn where the hiding spots are and check them. If you’re actually deaf then I’m sorry to hear that. (pun intended)

Lol you are a goddamn troll brother I think you are not even trying to hide it anymore, you obviously never played any of these vehicles to even think they are good and need to uptier that much, even the 6.7 T34 in many situations is better than the IS-3 and I can use it to kill you in 8 different ways and past 700m there isn’t a damn thing you can do about it, and what even ironic is that you mentioned skill issues when you have problems killing one of the worst vehicles in their respective br lmao

Can’t hear something more than 400m away. And I often don’t have time to react when I do faintly hear one.

I’m not a bad player, I just find dying to autocannon tanks incredibly annoying.

You’re expecting too much, most players watching in ground like this:

Wdym 400? there was a fox 600m away from me, and i heard it like it was next to me (and i heard it over the music i had playing). They are extreamly loud for no reason at all.
