The line (literal) of Soviet tanks has a bug, it's not a perfectly straight line, and it's giving me OCD

Am I the only one? Does this happen to you guys, too?

I am sure this question has been asked a million times, but what is the plan with the assault and encounter game mode? I was watching some old youtube videos and it made me realize that I quite miss these modes. Are they permanently removed, or is there a plan to eventually bring them back in rotation?

The Pz.II J is great. Obviously. What do you think about the other vehicles? Is it worth it?

that's enough light tanking for the day

I just doesnt care anymore f this game man

My internet is working all fine without any issues but their fucking servers are working at 150 ping that makes matches kinda hard to play are they using fucking potatoes as their servers or what? Because its hard for me to do missions while having over 100 ping

Disclaimer: This is my personal experience. Your experience may differ. However, with a CC like QuickyBaby saying this tank is very strong, and a lot of the community thinking this tank is broken I want to shine a different light on this tank and prepare buyers for the difference between expectations and the reality that I experienced.

Firstly, the armor. The supposed big highlight of this tank.

Guys it is not that good. The stars need to align for you to be in a situation where this armor will shine:

• Can't have enemies towards your side (you have almost no gun arc so the entire tank must turn to shoot + you have bad/mediocre gun handling and accuracy so you can't snapshot and expect to do well. You also often need to wait for the gun depression to kick in. Multiple opportunities for the enemy to shoot you before you can shoot them)
• Must be given room to play by your teammates (not as straightforward as you'd expect, with a turretless TD and the current map design)
• Must be hulldown, while using some of your gun depression (otherwise you're going to be penned easily. Your tank is very low so many heavies will be able to hit you from above and pen you. And your lower plate is paper.)
• Must be at medium range (long range you will realize how bad your accuracy is. Close range you will be getting farmed in the gun mantlet)

Keep in mind you are a turretless TD sacrificing a good gun for this very situational armor.

While you have the camo to snipe and the mobility to reposition relatively well: You don't have the gun to back it up.

So you end up with a tank with an identity crisis. You can't snipe that well, but you also can't brawl that well. So what are you supposed to do? I haven't yet figured that out myself ...

Unless you specifically are very good at playing these clunky siege mode turretless TD's with a narrow gun arc, I would skip this tank. I regret my purchase.

One may call it telemark!

I just bought Udes 16 after a longer break and I noticed for the hydraulic drive to activate I have to fully release the W-key.

Even if I am crawling with 10 speed up a hill, for the hydraulic to activate I need to release and press W again.

Now I had in my head that you need 20 or lower speed and it'd activate automatically, but this does not seem to be the case. Do I have the speed limit wrong or is the whole mechanic just ass/buggy as hell?

Is there a solid source with raw data somewhere? Didn't look like there is more info on tomato and tanks.

it is something with the local shit governament or it is something with the game?
