BRITISH tank worst of the worst tank Line

[Arif Kurniawan47]

Hmm...well, just try the Avenger and Firefly, Challenger...and iam just said "Oh God" why the hell british tank suck so much....
Pros: Good Gun depression

CONS:
-Slow REverse (3km/H?? Really? my grandpa move faster than this tank)
-Bad Armor especially Avenger, Comet, Challenger
-AP Shell always bounce
-To kill one tank need 5 shot to kill it,
-Stupid Armor design (again)
-Worst AA on the game

anyone like me still tortured with british line?

You should know those are cruiser tanks, sacrificing armor for speed.
I would want to know which AP shell are you referring to. Gun and shell type?
Also, having the first actual fully enclosed AA gun the AC and Crusader is quite good. Won't comment on the guns since I have never used them though. But there's definitely worse than those.
Oh, and if you wanted to one shot people in a British tank, too bad. Go play the Russians who have 76s with a huge HE filler that one shots everything. If you hate it, don't play it. I'm going to actually try torturing myself by trying to reach Tier IV.

Already at TIER IV, just try it, it is worst than Japan, and its hell that pit Avenger, Firefly, Comet, Challenger against IS-2, IS-1, Tiger Spam...and the question is? how the hell british can kick Nazi butt on WW2 with worst tank like that..

Two words sum up why the brittish prevailed:

Numbers
Logistics

Perhaps one name could be added:

Churchilll (And no, that's not the tank)

You need to be highly skilled in aiming and compensating elevation shell drop, otherwise your shots ain't gonna do jack. I had a hard time with these tanks but my aim got better, oh and stay back since you don't have the reverse speed or armour.

Because in real life when you took an ap shell and the guy next to you got turned into mush, you got the hell outta the tank.

This is not the case in the game, so you have to kill every crew member, putting tanks with solid shot at a disadvantage.

once you get the centurian mark 3 everything is much better

[Razgriz]

I actually really liked playing the british, low tier brits were fun since most tanks are too small and cramped to make solid ♥♥♥♥ really problematic, and the Cents are really fun with their APDS rounds, and the Cheiftain is one of my favorite Tier Vs to play, though its a shame it doesn't really have any fun backups. Fingers crossed Gaijin adds the Chieftain Mk.5 to help fill out UK tier V to make it worth grinding to.

Adoption of certain vehicles like the firefly and eventually working as a team which took them a while.

No not at all, UK is pretty fun, it does suffer from a major lack of vehicles much like the US
However as far as shots go, you need to know where to hit.
And as far as the tanks like comets, they're meant to be fast and agile. Armour was never their priority as others have said.

So? i must play shoot and hide? but in theory it is Easy, the reality while im mostly play in AB, the Avenger, Comet, Challenger slow reverse speed make the shoot and hide is frustrated...if i want to shoot and hide, probably US tank like Sherman with flat armor on front for angling and much better reverse speed, or M18 with excellent reverse speed is best to use this role...hmm..try to flank with British tonk is also fail cause lack of speed than Pz series and T-34 series, also the speed of reverse is become handicap to retreat to safer position after flanking...

I never said any of that and stalker kurn seems to have said what I said, word for word
wat lol

[Dr.Pepsi Man]

To answer your question, no. It requires a different playstyle. Many vehicles have a slow reverse speed that is nothing like the m18's or the IS2s speed, and quite often it'd better to go foward toward the enemy for more cover while angling than it is to reverse.

TL;DR put yourself in situations where you don't need to reverse, none of that peek a boom nub stuff. Also as far as flanking goes, as long as you're using a medium, they're decent at flanking. What do the speeds of others have to do with your abillity to flank is beyond me. The whole point of flanking is to push while being undetected which can easily be done in ab. With UK's comet's and avenger's speeds this can easily be done.
Otherwise, push, flank and and keep it always hull down and angle.

You know what's sad?

IRL AP had the same damage potential as APHE, so in-game british tanks should have the same kill power with AP with other tanks that use APHE.

But AP shell characerists appear a bit problematic.

It's the other way around, APHE is massively overperforming.

Once you get the 7.0 you're gonna love it, British have the best 7.0 line up in the game.
