I haven't played in awhile, but was in beta with a good number of the FW crowd.  I didn't really feel it was a grind either, just fun.

from what tyrannis is saying, he said that he was poppin off turrets from (maybe) 500m+ and that is a load of BS. what im trying to get at is that he could have killed a tiger2, maybe an is-3 but not from the "long" ranges hes saying. his form of sniping is probably using a buckshot round in a shotgun at a piece of paper up close. what he's saying is that hes punching thru a piece of sheet metal with an explosive bb from 500m+ will it do damage? yes. will it do very much? no.
What tanks do you have in this game?

in beta i had a E8 sherman, a VK 3601 and a tiger1.

right now im grinding my way down the american TD line, im at the M40 working on the M10. i sold most of my tanks so i could have some extra cred's when i  buy my M10 and when i buy my M40 in the SPG's.

for 1. have you ever even HAD the Sherman 105? How can you say it DOESN'T do something when you yourself haven't even played around with the tank?

2. Learn the weak points of every common tank you run into, and even from distance, you can do a great amount of damage. HE rounds are great for killing The little guys inside, and crippling the tank.

3.I never payed attenchian to the exact distance i was, but i'll give you an example of the sniping distance i was at:
On the desert map.  The one with hills on both sides, and a little down down in the middle, Most tanks like to sit ontop of their hill and snipe anyone who travels down into that little town.
I decided to hide in a bush on the top of the hill, and snipe at any of the campers on the other hill. As my team moved up, they started spotting the enemy tanks.
From the little bush on my side of the hill, i was sniping all the way to their other side. I took out 3 tanks. a tiger1. a T1, and a Panzer IV just sniping from one hilltop to the other. And took out a t34 who had snuck around our side of the hill and was attempting to take our flag.

Tiger 2's are fearsome, But even they have their weakness.
-I spot a tiger 2.
-Fire on his tracks.Tracking him.
-If i can get a shot on his engine, i'll start firing on that.
-If he has the back of his turret exposed to me, I'll fire for the escape hatch.
-If his tank is facing me. I'll fire for the Drivers Slit.
-The tiger II has a weak point in it's side armor but i dont remember what it is, havent played WoT in awhile.

Now, you can keep saying "Oh well you cant do that!.." skorpion, But from both this thread and the other thread its blatantly Obvious are a tard who has no idea what they are talking about. So your best to just drop the subject.

If ever i get back into WoT i'd be happy to 1v1 your tiger in a 105. Last i left off on was a Lee, so im pretty close.

yes, i have had a sherman 105. kind of how i got my E8 sherman. so i know what im talking about, the 105 sherman hardly damages a tiger2. let alone the IS-3 you said. you hit the tracks? well, thats just gonna annoy him and he looses a track. hit the engine and it dies, not much going on there. hitting the drivers slit? really? that does nothing but kill the driver and not much else.

the distances, those are over 600m from hilltop to hilltop the accuracy for a 105 sherman at 100m is .48, seriously, you only wish you could snipe with that much accuracy at 600m. unless you have a long barrel 105 then your not doing much damage to a tiger unless hes already hurting bad. the sides of each tank are obviously softer, but your saying your killing IS-3's? yeah...ok.. :rolleyes: i find your level of intelligence to be minimal having to call me a tard when your saying to look up your stats that are no longer available? obviously there are weak spots, but you getting a shot at the tiger/IS-3 each time is BS as your saying  you do, and getting a killshot each time with it. im not saying you cant kill a tiger in the 105 im saying that its EXTREMELY hard to do so, especially on the IS-3. if you dont have any proof, then dont bring it up. if you did, then id believe it until that happens (probably never will) dont even make up a lie like that. the 105 sherman is such a low velocity gun that its hard to penetrate a tigers armor at just 200m. and yes, i do know this because i did do the research unlike you. your argument is nil.

are you butthurt? or do you know your wrong? because i did research, i did test this out with a friend, and i did write down the facts. i put a 105mm howitzer on my T40 in WOT recently and i got into a match with a IS. i hit him 3 times and only did 20 damage with all 3 shots combined togethor, and i was shooting him in the sides. you want proof, go grab an IS, let me use my 105 howitzer T40 on it and show you how much the gun sucks. especially at long ranges. (HE shots)


and do you have your proof that im wrong yet? no? ok, that works.

lol. You seem to call everyone else "butthurt" when in reality, its you. Did it in the other thread, doing it in this thread.
My proof is my own personal experiance with the sherman 105mm, coupled with the knowledge of weak points of various common tanks.
And also the fact that you rarely know what YOU are talking about, which makes most of what you say "Nil"
Like i said in the p47 vs f6f thread, where you were trying to say "in your hands" a p47D11 can "Easily" outturn an f6f, Record your tests, upload to mediafire, then post them here. So we can all evaluate. Your research doesnt mean squat if all you can do is say "this&this happened.." without Some type of results to show for others to inspect.

i find your butthurt even bigger now that your bringing in other threads. your 19, arguing with me being 14, and you think that because your older, your smarter on everything? yeah...ok...sure. i did the research, and i have screenshots of the shots i made with the 105 howitzer on the IS and the damage. you want them? because i have my proof and you still dont.

wrongway

The 105 Sherman in WoT is a tad over modeled compared to its historical counter part.  Basically, in WoT you have a tank that was an armored mobile artillery vehicle with bad anti-tank capabilities being used in WoT in a role it was hardly used for because it wasn't intended to fight other tanks, regardless of the size of its main gun.

The Israeli's used both the 105mm howitzer M4 Sherman and the Sherman/Isherman M-51 with the CN 105 F1 main tank gun.

I'm not going to argue over the internet because that just exposes stupidity but I will say this:

Saying it is impossible to snipe with that gun is ridiculous. My friend and I both practice sniping with the 152mm "derp" gun on the KV and we both tend to do very well.

Is it difficult? Yes.
Is it impossible? Only for those who are too impatient.

I was one of the original beta testers (July 2010) for the NA edition so I've seen my fair share of  :headscratch: :headscratch: :headscratch: shots but it's normal there and personally - stupid stuff like this is pointless. Why even bother to argue about a video game over the internet?
