“historical battles themsleves took roughly a month of work, including the tests”

And it shows.

Another rush job to be pulled at the next patch, if not before.

The Sharpo Jumpman with his 105 howitzer also performs very good.

The ‘other two’ game modes in War Thunder are the only ones worth playing…

“[...]people actually trying to push and secure key areas have a lot to worry about things coming from the sky which they have no control of.” <– They have control over the arty. MOVE YOUR ASSES! Seriously. The arty has worse accuracy and aimtime then any other tank type in this game!
"Everytime I tried to push and use my armor for my team, arty ruined the day." <– You mean you lost 1100 (Obj261 HE shell) / 1550 (GW E100 HE) / 1800 (T92 HE) / 2200 (CGC HE) [all must have hit the sweetspots to deal this dmg and you get that after every MINUTE they shot!!!] out of 3000 HP with one shot and that was bad? Then never play with a T4-T8 scout. (hint: most tanks will oneshot all your hp)

I can stand noobs, i can stand people close to the edge of retardation. But being a coward in a game is too much for me. People who peek out, get shot and hide without returning fire, even thou there is only one player shooting at them. They get shot, they get scarried. It’s not even about being a coward or being a brave man. It’s all about thinking under “stress”

“- developers are wondering how to increase HE rounds usefulness, but haven’t thought of anything yet”

Well the reason I don’t like using HE (or HEAT) is because they get almost completely absorbed by spaced armour or tracks. Some might say “go around the tank and shoot an HE there, no spaced armor there” but hey if I’m behind it I might as well shoot an AP. HEs aren’t for flanked tanks (unless it’s a Foch) it’s for when you can’t pen it’s front. So imo they can roughly leave HE shells as they are now and instead look at spaced armour.

Although I prefer fighting to the last moment (since one well placed shot in GW Tiger P can do dmg of around 800-2000HP, I find hard to be mad at those who chose drowning. You see, arty is problably the most dependant vehicle of all in the game. It can not hold flank, it can not cover all of map, it can hardly track fast moving targets, especially with long flying shells over large distance. You know what is the arty best for? For smoking out those cowards that hide all the battle behind some rock. Or to scare off pushing heavies. Probably nothing frightens players than seeing T44 or Panther II oneshot or seeing KV4 or IS3 lose around 800-900HP in one shot :) Then they retreat and the day is saved… for one minute perhaps. And playing arty while minimilized window… no (at least average) arty player would do that. You have to constantly track targets, as for example when I am in said GW Tiger, reload takes around 45 seconds (IIRC?) and when hitting 20seconds of reload, I have to be already locked on another target, else I would be aiming even after having reloaded. Turning of GW Tiger P to target takes around 10 seconds, so you really have around 10-15 seconds to find target you know will be there when you are reloaded, a target, which if you hit will help your team. If arty goes for the easiest targets and hits some low tiers at the corner of map doing nothing, then that artys team is more likely to lose and therefor that arty player will have worse stats and worse winratio.

And now imagine when you are in arty and all of your team go nuts, half drowns or crashes, one teamkills and the rest dies in 2 minutes. There you are, in your S51 or what not, barely shot one round and you are loosing 12:0. If you are in heavy or even in medium, you can at least go to the flank where noone went and try to hold them or delay them. When you are in arty, you only hope that someone will go to the other flank
