World of Tanks - M41 HMC Review & Gameplay
M41 HMC - Tier 5 American SPG / Artillery: This is the start of a beautiful friendship... A great gun with a decent bite - what more do you want? Gameplay: 4:20 ...
hey Justforthe lolzFYI and everyone else, when it comes to artillery
gameplay, there are several things that people seem to forget, i see it in
basically every single artillery replay that i come across in world of
tanks, this is intended as some friendly teachings, you can choose to
listen or not, but here goes : 1 every single time you aim with a large
SPG, you press x to lock down the artillery prior to firing, this increases
the accuracy if your shots within the view range you currently have, the
yellow exclamation mark on the vehicle overview in the bottom right side of
the map shows when its locked down, it becomes unlocked if you move the
aiming box/reticle outside of the view cone, so you have to reingage the
lockdown mode when you chance targets, make it a habit. 2 advice when you
move to a new target , you can hold down the Ctrl on your keyboard and
right click on the new target on the minimap, it causes you to instantly
pop to the new target, you then turn the vehicle so the cone is in the
direction of the target, and reactivate lockdown mode again by pressing x
on your keyboard as the default key, these things makes life a bit easier
as an arty, if you want the specific details i suggest you view the
official video guides for artillery on //worldoftanks.com
+Tarren604 Yeah...arty is being demonized all over the place. Not to say it could not be improved (there will probably be a video about this at some point), but the current reaction is a little ridiculous. While it is not rocket science to play it reasonably well, that's true for most classes in the game. And if its so super easy, why are there so many bad arty players still? And the most important point...it's so incredibly easy to screw with arty players. Just make sure you don't stop or move in a straight line in easy to hit places. (Oops...giving away our secrets here...)
np :), it just seems to be a common theme, so thats why i wanted to point out these things. Sadly it seems that most of the world of tanks community have gotten angry at the SPG players out there, thinking that its an auto aim , point click never miss type thing, that is definately not the case, you try to play the american lower tier arties and you will discover quickly that it misses a lot, it does take practice to learn to play properly, a lot of things to take in to account, where to move so you dont get caught when they come rushing, yet being able to be in a place where cliffs and other things doesnt cover your view, you cant just shoot everything on the map, the range of the SPG´s are simply not long enough for that, so you are forced to move. the mod that is named battle assistant helps people to be able to hit , but actually its sometimes makes you less likely to hit, because what it is displaying are not always the way the shot will move, so yes, it does help , but its not infalable. so cut the SPG players some slack , and try it out properly before you judge.
+Tarren604 thanks Tarren done arty for awhile and never remember to do this ...do remember being taught this along time ago just forgot to make it a habit!
+Tarren604 Hey Tarren604 thanks for the comments, they are always taken in good faith so probs there! :) Regarding point 1, I partially agree but to my knowledge (and what I found in forums) locking the hull does not give you an accuracy bonus, it just helps avoiding an accidental aiming-circle reset due to moving your hull. If that's what you did mean than sorry, I might have misread it. I tend not to use it with very narrow gun arcs where I have to re-aim anyway constantly with moving targets, but otherwise I use it a lot unless I forget :) Point 2 is awesome btw, I did not know you can do this in WOT as well...will give it a shot for sure. Cheers!
nice review. i think the effectiveness of the m41 really depends on the
team your on, we know that the 155mm gun is as accurate as a weather
report. if your team track targets and spot for you and allow you to zero
in then its great but most of the time they leave you to strugle and this
is the problem with all arty.
