If you took a look at armour model then you would see that 220mm on side and rear are tiny(if you don’t aim for turret ring, you generally will not hit 220mm).

If only drum and magazine guns had the same drawbacks in this game as they did historically, there would not be many autoloaders running around in this game!

I really do get annoyed when I catch a tank out and am about to start taking it apart with my 390 alpha 7 second reload gun only to have some autololz ninja come in and kill it before I am reloaded.

It’s bad enough with all these massive alpha guns blatting a half HP tank dead just as I shoot it and my shell slams into a wreck.

Really do feel like a bug driving around in a normal tank sometimes… but fear not, for I have only 20k exp to go for the FV 183 doom cannon!! and then I shall be the troll…

Game mechanics:

1. Find enemy tank
2. Point at it
3. Shoot until it (or you) explodes.
4. ???
5:
A) Victory.
B) If it wasn’t victory, rage about noob teams, OP tanks, campers, being outnumbered, autoloaders, arties, TDs, Polish players, gold ammo, invisible tanks, how daddy touched you at night.

If you don’t see how autoloaders fit in this, find another game.

autoloaders are gamebreakers..they never should be in the game at all….they simply don’t fit the game mechanics properly…..

WG’s way of balancing tanks….send some drunk retards with gauge and let them measure the tanks….at least it looks like they are doing it like that when you look at the tanks in game

Why yes, the Kirovets-1 turret is indeed 150/90/80. The IS-3 turret, on the other hand…

In the form of dead tank wrecks of the enemy, yea.

The rates of fire on the Auto-loaders for the 128 and 150 @ 2s and 3s between shots is close enough to being correct. The auto-loader device is correct but the whole WT E100 “package” is not which is sad.
