I just started the Russian tech tree, any tips?

I have 8.3 BR on America and 5.7 on Germany

You got good guns. Downside, longer reloads
You have good mobility, not really a downside there
Really trolly armor, again no real downsides there.
Only major downside to Russian ground is the gun depression

With all these you can’t really lose…

My tip is abandon it, the TT is mid. Sweden have best top tier MBTs.

Stop playing the 3 main, minor tech tree are more fun than those.

Top tier isn’t the only part of the game y’know.

I’d rate it better than Sweden until atleast rank V in GRB.

Air: Go for the Yakovlev and MiG lines mostly, LA line is good in props too though. Yak and La have the best props MiG has the best jets.

Ground: You have speedy tanks with good armour, or good armour big gun. T-34 is going to be your child between 3.3 and 5.7, you should treat it as one, take it on long walks through the maps, flanking and having fun with it by annoying the enemy (killing). Don’t take frontal engagements in the T-34 unless it’s something like a Panzer IV which you can go through the turrets (hull plate too on earlier models), if you come face to face with a Sherman try to keep your hull angled and wiggle your turret, your enemy will go for your turret cheeks 8/10 times. If it’s an M4A1/M4/M4A4 then at close range you can go through the front plate, or go through the turret cheeks (avoid the mantlet), With the M4A2/3 aim at the MG port (volumetric might be an issue) or the turret cheeks. That’s my low tier advice.

don’t play it. its giant waist of time

“the finish line isn’t the only part of the race”

There is alot more to the tree than just top tier, especially for Russia.

His comment makes no sense either, Russia is one of the best nations at top tier in GRB.

i dont want your opinion on a nation that you haven’t played

You are wrong if you believe Russia isn’t a good nation in WT.

That’s… Not true at all… It’s an amazing TT, with very good vehicles… And I’ve had a blast playing it so far…

Are all good brs for russia

WW2 use the ammo with more explosive filler and more angled pen but less flst pen.

Planes sacrifice armament and ammo for flight performance, so they are the least fun planes to fly for new/low skill pilots because they will constantly be hindered by ammo count, and their fighters are awful CAS so its kinda boring to fly them in grb without anyone to dogfight.

Russia isnt really that good imo until around 8.0 at least compared to germany and US. Historically that sort of makes sense I guess with cold war russia putting so much into devolpment of military stuff.

T series modern tanks like the t80 and 72 variants we have cause an immense amount of asshurt because these tanks punish bad players the most. Thing is against good players the advantages you have evaporate and your stuck in a tank with half the fun depression. Worse reverse, worse fcs etc… Getting a downtier in the t80ud and fighting bad players might be the only high tier heavy tank expierence that exists.

IMO just stuck with germany, you get a lot of good soviet stuff and still has the capability to. Germany is probably the best tree to “main”.

ok fast tt check


the highest br tank is the bmp2m and the second heist is the kv1 zip

1.0-5.7 they’re pretty good, 6.0-6.7 not that good, 7.0-7.7 they’re alright kinda mid, 8.0-11.7 they’re really good.

You will have tough times with gun depression and reload speed through the entire tech tree. My advice, when you get rank VI skip 9.0-10.0 BR’s, and play mainly T-55AMD and BMP-2 - they are that good compared to other tech tree vehicles.

Far from amazing, far from good, it’s mid. I’ve spent most of my time in USSR and it’s not that good as people says.

Nah, imo it’s amazing, but that just my opinion, you don’t have to agree :)

T50 and T34 all the way.

I don’t advocate spending on this game really but you could do worse than buy the KV1-E
