And long distant shots are hard to pull off because the shell travels slower.
I would rather have a slow reload time than sit there bouncing every shot I fire.Ulvenes wrote:That was my problem with the Jumbo. Everything I fought could penetrate me while I didn't have the HP to duke it out or the speed to maneuver very well.
That's because you have to angle.

When I first got my T29 Heavy Tank, the stock gun couldn't pierce the front of a Jumbo or even the machinegun port, while the same gun on the Jumbo could penetrate the front of a T29 like it was butter.

Yes, and frankly I have never had a problem. Some of my favorite games have been in that, because its just that awesome.

Like the early 122's on the Russian line. When I was using them I only did 97 damage on average, sometimes around 110. But no higher.

Russians don't have OP armor, nothing does, at least on the PC version. I also don't NEED premium ammo and I only take a small amount of it. I use premium ammo for those instances when it helps me. For instance when an AT7 turned head on towards me. Rather than hitting that 100+ front armor with my standard HE ammo and only doing 50 or so damage I loaded premium HEAT. I then aimed at a weak spot and fired away. Bam 350 damage and one dead AT7.
Honestly if you NEED premium ammo to be competitive, than you are doing something wrong. Of course the Xbox version sounds very, very different than the PC one.

There's also no end to the fun when someone tries attacking you from on top of a hill, in your direct line of vision.

I learned something today.
If you have to pay to win, you're bad. It's plain and simple.

Quite frankly, cause it couldn't possibly be worse.

The PC version is amazing. People complain about balance issues, but there really aren't any. At the moment they are actually working on redoing a lot of the maps, getting rid of concealment and adding more varied terrain. It's all to stop people from camping. They also recently nerfed the TDs camo bonus.

What the hell? That's what TD's are supposed to do cause of their lack of a turret and lower HP I mean seriously, they're designated snipers. Snipers need to remain hidden.
