Stopping + Using Shift/Scroll wheel increase accuracy.

So far it's very fun to play!

Ok I am officially addicted to this game!!!
I just love this. I mean when I used to play RO I would only play on Armour Servers because I loved tanking so much. Granted RO's tanks had a little nicer reality/physics to them but MAN this game is just awesome!!

Lucky guy. I'm a long way off on getting a heavy. I just got a T-46 and am working on building it up for now. Which is not too bad for only playing for 24hrs(almost straight... I am seriously loving this)

My only beef with it so far is poor latency I am on a 15/15 Mbit fibre to building connection and I can't get a ping better then 140 most of the time and see alot of tanks warping. It makes it very difficult to track and shoot. I even tried bypassing my router altogether to see if it was a port issue but no joy.

yeah 160 is the best you'll get. They just moved tje server to the usa wither recent patch.

Heavies are good. Soviet is beter but their low tier heaviest suck. KV series. Is-1 plus are great

Well I know the IS very well from RO and it is a mean tank.

I'm also trying to work my way up to a Leopard on the German side too I have a Luch now. I haven't messed too much with the SPG's but I have myself a Bison and just need to use it a little more. I only figured out this morning how to sell my tanks to make space for new ones so I have been "upping my arsenal"

All in all I am just loving this game and when it gets out Beta I am definitely all over it.

It's a shame they moved the servers to the US. They shoulda kept some regional ones on this side. Tho it explains when I was asking last night about pings the responses I got were "I got 50-60 ping" I just figured because I was up so late I was connecting to NA servers but it seems that IS the only connection.

I downloaded the "full version" through uTorrent. Now when I go to the beta setup that I downloaded, I can't do anything with it. Explorer just locks up when I try to launch, it won't let me delete (says that it's being accessed by another program, even though it is removed from uTorrent and the app is closed) and even a MSE scan on the file freezes up. Wat do?

Edit: Nevermind, I managed to get it deleted. I figure it was corrupt or something. I'll try downloading another version.

Yeah I am totally loving it(as I sit here at 3am and have been playing it all night)
I platooned up with a fellow TPU'er who has a nice heavy so I was totally outclassed in my little light T-46 but I still had a blast and got a fair amount of decent shots in.
I will totally buy into this when it is released but for now I am just loving this game ALOT!

Just wish they hadn't moved all the servers over to NA as my only beef is poor latency which is not a good thing in this game. I read they are gonna put back up some Euro servers soon cuz I am tired of seeing warping tanks...
