Post by: The Fugitive on March 31, 2021, 08:59:42 PM: Id like to see a "Tanking 101" setup where some of you GV pros can lead some of <cough><cough> less skilled players in the art of GVing. Basic stuff on how and when you use the commanders seat, how you adjust sounds and how you pinpoint where other tanks are, how to aim/range and so on.

I'm bad in GVs so I'm always game for practice

I still have no idea, i just scroll around and I go hmm, that looks good, and shoot. Usually takes me 3 shots to range, when I die from one from bad guy (aka he doesn't range, just one shot, one kill) :)

I’ve been offering that for at least a year now. All anyone needs to do is ask.

Sounds like you're asking which tanks have gun positions with Zoom and/or Range dials? :D
That's something the non tanker won't know unless he has knowledgeable tanker squadmates or shows up for Tank Night.
Some people are absolutely deadly from the commanders position, but for most of us, nah.
The best thing about Tank Night, like Monday Night Madness, is that it concentrates the fight into a small intense area. You are seconds away from rejoining the battle, not minutes.

Turn off your engine sound and hide in the bushes.

Post by: captain1ma on April 03, 2021, 02:41:43 PM: i have a new kassrine terrain up. check it out. we have 2 bases with 1 in the middle. we can have a capture the flag set up for 2 sides. it also has a valley to fight at. i can make something with a ton of spawns and we can just duke it out around a city or something like that.
