And the Person that told him this probably switched to Dial-up...........Not that the Armor is harder its that you just die a lot later because of Lag..... :O

Hi. How can I make my tank harder to kill? I watch all the good tankers and they have this. I have asked around and people have said that if I make my connection slower it will do the trick, is this true?

best thing to do, is to learn where the weak spots on your chosen tank are, and do not expose them to the enemy.

Spyder - when you go into zoom mode for your gun view, use the up arrow key to zoom in some, then use the bracket  [   ]  keys to zoom in MUCH further.

I went from 1 kill if I was lucky before I found that out and was looking through straws it seemed, to some really really nice sortes. :)

Just a little , probably not so, hidden secret that is crucial to tanking.

Gv'ing is like everything else in this game, you are not going to learn it over night. It's not like some of these guys that are good (no name's , to many to mention) at it became good in a week or two. It takes time and a lot of getting killed to get good at it, it's not going to just come to you , your going to have to work at it. There are no secrets or game to it, spend the time doing it and take your butt kicking's as the come and learn from every engagement, take something out of every fight good or bad.

Drop bombs on the other tanks, all tankers deeply respect someone who can bomb them accurately, especially if you do it from Lancasters.

One thing you'll learn Spyder is this game is full of story tellers. Most of the time the actual even gets distorted the way the story teller wants it  :D

Oh. The reason I ask is because of those stories that I always hear. For example the one I heard today "400 yards away from a sherman in my panzer, I shoot him in the side, and he turns his turret and hits my front and I die".

Much of this is due to the less-than-perfect GV modeling and game-engine.  Sometimes, at very close range, your round appears to go through the tank, not hit it and either get a kill or ricochet like you'd expect.  It's a software problem and happens to everyone.  It's been talked about by tankers since AHII arrived, and probably before.   :D
