how to play well.
1. understand the roll of your tank and its strongpoints and weaknesses.
a t-34 should not be up on a hill sniping , and a toaster should not be up at the front of a charge.
don't ******* if your a scout.
2. learn the maps and USE THE MINI-MAP.
study where the chokepoints are and the firing lanes.
amazing how many do not use the mini-map and clueless about flow of the battle.
3. learn the basic game mechanics - camo / spotting. ammo , armor, weakpoints.
theres no such thing as invisible tanks.
any tank can damage another tank if you shoot it in the right place.
all tanks can bounce a shot depending on angle / ammo / distance , regardless of tier. - just because you have a 203mm cannon doesn't mean the little elc is a sure ****.
4. STAY ALIVE !. and try to do more damage then your tanks hp pool.
know when to advance and when to withdrawl. - don't try to face a is-3 in your m3-lee.
5. have a plan but be flexible to adapt when that plan isn't working. try to follow the flow of battle and the teams general plan.
sometimes going rogue and "balls-to-the-walls" works and catches people by supprise and scares them . but most times it just gets you dead with no support.
