I'm looking for a light tank to do missions with. Is the M41D in the bond shop any good?Tank thread, I guess.
>>750631305I rove tanks Is world of tanks good or it just another jewthunder-like?
>>750631717It's... frustrating.
>>750631305All of the American lights are strictly inferior at scouting. Looking at the bond shop, AMX 13 57 is the best and most fun option.Although nearly all light tanks are useful if you know the basics of spotting and camo, once you get to tier 8 they all become outclassed by EVEN 90, EBR 75 FL and 432. If you want higher tier scouts your best bets are T 100, Manticore and new German and Chinese tanks if you want to damage dealing potential as well.

UP UP UP
this retarded thing is pretty fun
>>750633087Let me guess, Italian?
>>750631305T8 LTs in WoT are obsolete the moment you face off against an ELC 90 The tech tree bulldog is a better scout, than the M41D, if you want to do missions for scouting, you better get the bongoloid manticore
>>750632071>>750633193How do you counter ELC EVEN 90?
>>750631717it's made by an actual game dev instead of a ragtag of chinese trendchaser shovelware vibecoders
Is Ace Combat but tanks possible or would it not work like it does for planes?
>>750633136yes, it's the Fiat 6616 kart
>>750633304panzerfront and valkyria chronicles kind of prove that a grand story is possibleespecially if there are big titties involved as is the case of the latter
>>750633252lollmaoIf the player is semi competent and has the most basic equipment he will not be spotted until you bump into him.
>>750633304it needs to be slow because tanks should feel like 50+ ton vehicles and not go-karts but fundamentally you can do a over the top melodramatic story in a tank
>>750633252I wish I was living in your world where you think you have a chance of countering the ELC
>>750633517>>750633906There must be some way.
>>750635309It is useless in a fight but as long as it is in a bush it can only be proxy spotted.
Panzer Vor!
>>750635638yukari doesn’t even acknowledge that she coinee that phrase
>>750631305aren't all light tanks actually shit in real life battles because you can just blow them up with bigger tanks that they struggle to hurt back?
>>750636353Light tanks are for armored recon, not for engaging medium or heavy tanks. The difference to something like a HMG-equipped APC is that they're able to offer long range fire support for infantry if need be. They've mostly been superseded by IFVs in this sense, but there's still demand for the high explosive charge and long range accuracy of a high velocity tank cannon. At least, all of this was true before drone warfare really took off.
is call to arms still the best singleplayer tank game available?

>>750636353light tanks have logistical advantages that make them better in other scenarios where you obviously dont have heavier vehicles or when things are asymmetrical. If they’re light and compact enough they can be air transported and generally have less issues navigating poor terrain, and like the other anon said they still have enough armor to engage anythinf with similar or less armor like infantry and light vehicles. Against heavier vehicles they can still make for good reconnisance.
I hope one day somebody other than assblasted Russians make a tank game.
>>750638363provided you don't sabotage your team by having an ELC opponent, it's a fun tank to play if you play it like a big paper medium nobody really expects the high pen HE
>>750636353No? Most modern light tanks are equipped with the same guns found on MBTs, or they have missiles that you guide manually using a camera inside it from behind a hill to engage enemies
>>750631305this game was fun when /wotg/ peaked like 10 years ago. how much worse has it gotten?
>>750639667ELC really should have mirror MM. Borat too.
>>750631305>Below average player>Haven't played for years>Out of nowhere get an urge to play>Redownload the game>Did nothing but play Tier 5 Chaffe while extremely locked in>got from 0 marks to 3 in like 30+ gamesNever was able to replicate playing as well as I did ever again
>>750639972We have tier 9 premium tanks now, lots of them.
