Bro, you should have not said that…
It’s against the ToS to have multiple accounts…
It says “The User shall not create multiple Accounts.”
Herre is the ToS, that statement is under 3.4

The implementation of SPG’s into the game didn’t help either. Cold War vehicles sit at late WW2 BR’s and just evaporate anything they see.

Honestly I wish all the indirect fire SPG’s were removed (assault guns are fine), but I know it’s too late now.

Everything gets hammered in uptiers - why should late war heavy tanks be different?

The problem is solely due to using the BR system - it puts all vehicles at a level where they are more-or-less (arguably) fighting against near peers, not historical opponents.

That’s the end of it - nothing will change unless that changes.

Real, that’s so true!

I mean, HEAT was designed and fielded by Germany, in early WWII…

I assume your talking Pt-76B, maybe M-109A1/G3’s?

the TOS only works on the same device not multiple. Cause it does not state that I can not have two diffrent devices with two different accounts. It sole and vaguely states the user shall not have multiple accounts but says nothing about accounts on different devices.

It was fielded by literally all sides… and was “originally” discovered in the 1790’s, and used quite a lit for mining charges in the mid-late 1800’s

The role of the metal liner was really only appreciated in the 1930’s, but even then was being demonstrated to numerous military by 1935 - the British had the No 68 AT rifle grenade with a shaped charge in production from 1940.

It is HEAT-FS that is the “problem”, since it is massively better than the earlier ammunition that was spun by rifled barrels and often had no stand-off distance.

Umm I don’t think that’s how that works😂

You are the user and you have 2 accounts. Even if they are on 2 different devices. It’s still you (the user) having 2 accounts

But I’m not doing anything wrong.

Except for taking any notice of the good advice being given to you that you ARE doing something wrong.

I can’t use the forums on the XBOX that’s why I have this one I also play on it from time to time.

For emphasis, this here is my Xbox (and only) account.

Being linked is also what allows us console players to get CC decals in the web store (though we can only buy GE there).

Please, don’t take it the wrong way, take it in the constructive spirit it is intended as.

The fact that you think these two guns are the same is very telling of the fact that you need to rethink your position on this discussion.

The KwK43 is one of the most exceptional guns you’ll find in this game, at any BR. If you’re not penning anything with it, it simply means you don’t know where to shoot your opponents. 6.7 is not the sort of BR where there’s a lot of margin for error, you simply have to know where to shoot what. Firing centre mass is not something you can rely on.

I honestly really can’t fathom why people think the Tiger II suffers. Last year’s round of decompression has done wonders for 6.7 heavies for all nations.

What you have with the Tiger II is an incredibly powerful gun with a 7.4s reload (which is an outstanding level of firepower for a heavy) and fast turret rotation. It means you can move aggressively along a flank to play anti-flanker, or get to a meta position and defend it tooth and nail, because your reload and turret rotation make you incredibly reactive. You’re lethal at basically every conceivable combat range. You can snipe and you can brawl. You have a working reverse gear. You can sidescrape. You can take out someone’s barrel, and follow up…

It’s a nuke machine. One of my nukes with it has come at 7.7 on Normandy… most heavies in the game are traditionally useless in a full uptier, but not this one, because the gun still works. You just become a very slow medium tank.

Seriously. I used to think poorly of the Tiger II too, but a combination of learning to play it, and the BR decompression around it, has opened my eyes to just how damn good it is. Maybe even 7.0 good.

The two tanks Gaijin brings up as being marginal and probably worth it of a 0.3 BR increase are the Tiger II and the T29, there’s a reason for that.

Now, if you want an example of heavy tanks that actually suffer from their placement, the Jumbo 76, the Tiger II P, the Ferdinand, the very late Soviet heavies are better examples imho. But not the Tiger II, since its gun allows it to effectively multirole in a way that most heavies simply can’t do.

Dude when I look at them I see 88mm but I know the Tiger 1 uses the Kwk36 and the Tiger two the Kwk43.
