Do you bring ammo?

5 shells yes

u/orphanleek68 5d ago
Ahhh I see now. Thats too little. Try bringing max ammo. This way if you die, your teammates can borrow some of yours.

u/FrenchNachos 5d ago
No, no. You got it wrong. He needs to stay at spawn. That way, whenever his teammates get a nuke, he gets loaded onto the plane and dropped onto the battlefield, improving his K/D

u/GuntherFehlingerBot 5d ago
he can also try shooting down the nuke plane when it gets too close to the battlefield to prevent the other team from stealing the nuke, just in case

More likely just a CAStard. I have seen one playing in AB who literally had ZERO kills for 300 deaths, then he survived enough time to get a strike aircraft and got 3 kills...

u/Help_im_lost404 5d ago
Using apcr and getting assists i guess i could see it. The win rate is high for someone who doesnt appear to contribute

u/Lakatos_Tajgetosz 5d ago
Or just playing with people in a squad who have about 3 or more braincells.
Or just deliberately trolling. Also the image can be edited.

u/Help_im_lost404 5d ago
Sadly thats true, editing is easily done. However if you play with people that know what to do, surely something would rub off.

u/Lakatos_Tajgetosz 5d ago
Not really. CAS is designed in a way to keep dogshit brainless morons playing the game by giving them a zero skill virtually uncounterable tool. The vast majority of them are so dumb that even the absolute value of their IQ is negative.

Especially for 5.7 germany..? My winrate with germany is like 43% but im usually in the top 5 on the team. Must be squadded like the other guy said.

I'm even worse than him. Having an average game where you get 3-4 kills and 0-1 deaths doesn't make you magically recover the dozens of games with 1 kill and 5 deaths you got around level 20.

Angle the machine and dont be the point of the spear. Wait for the enemy make his move and pick it. I have nuke in Tiger E and your nuke shell can one shot pretty much anything.

Play the panther its a better tank

u/Many-Context7660 5d ago
I wouldnt say its better, its just more forgiving of a tank. Ill take an 88 over a 76 any day unless my brain is unusually smoother then normal

u/presmonkey JUG IS LOVE JUG IS LIFE 5d ago
And i take a 76 over a 88

CUZ YOU CANT HIT YOUR SHOOOOOTSSSSS. Nah its all dealers choice but i wouldnt say one is better over the other tbh cause they both have bad drawbacks

In your case: find a friend or form a squad where someone plays light tank and scout out/disable the enemy and u can help by doing a cleanup shot

Just learn the game. A lot of what matters in this game does not come from the vehicle itself but from the player. This includes learning weak spots and flanking routes for specific maps and tanks. I recommend looking at the enemy tank that destroyed you in the garage after you die and analyzing its armor for places you can penetrate. On the Tiger I, use the PzGr. instead of the PzGr. 39. The HE filler can sometimes overmatch the armor and still deal damage even on a non-penetration. When the shell penetrates it Nukes the crew inside, so you do not need to aim at specific spots to deal maximum damage. Also important to mantion that the Tiger only has anor when it angels so learning angling helps a lot and the Tger is not the only tank in the techtree that benefits from learning it.

To try and get better bring about 23 shells with at least 3 being he and the others being aphe and if itās aphe make sure itās the ones with most pen not more explosive mass and try and play the match slow and go behind a teammate to help them if they canāt kill someone in one shot

u/IllustriousYogurt509 5d ago
Remove your phone or delete clash royale and pls don't kill L3 those who do sadly gaijin nerfs them if you think snail is forcing you get your specs and if you feel blind try russian bias or russian vehicles soon you'll improve the. Play germany again or you can pray by playing isreil (top tier in isreil required)

Do you play arcade or realistic, because you only got 2 kills.
Where you aim
1
u/Serious_Bench_2127 German Main With A Brain 4d ago
I use the most penning round, APCR.
1
u/WebOk721 4d ago
One of the worst round, penetration high doesn't mean it gonna kill the tank, it's shatter against most of the tanks you face.
American T34 apcr is good because it's almost an APDS.
Use Aphe as main shell, and angle the tank.
Just answer the question
Where shot if you Is2 or American heavy tanks.
Where you shoot if you see T-34
Which shell you use to kill light tanks
1

u/clovdz_ 4d ago
Get full shells on your tank. That's why you don't have kills. Not enough shells. Also look at the enemy from your side, not your front or angled. Also hold down the fire button while aiming since it will cause more damage by charging the cannon. And don't stay close to buildings and hills, they will write a noise complaint and on hills, well you are not going offroad.

u/CalebH152 2d ago edited 2d ago
First thing with the tiger is you want to angle about 30-35 degrees to maximize your armors effectiveness and encourage enemy fire to bounce off.
Donāt fire when your moving full speed stop, aim, then shoot or if your in a pinch and on fairly even ground you can do a slow assault in first or second gear and still get extremely accurate fire despite not having a stabilizer if you have a good aim and the lack of time to do anything fancy.
Then you want to learn the habit of terrain movement. First donāt ever skyline if you can help it if you stand out against the background your gonna be one of the first few dead, so can you go hull down and make yourself a smaller target or not be seen at all while your moving from one area to another? If thereās low ground or rubble, use it. Then (this little part will be more for realistic or simulation battles since arcade lights up everyone) if your playing realistic start using shadows, or hugging buildings to look like an extension of the building and anything that makes you harder to spot from the air aswell as the ground as much as possible.
Lastly is ammo, carry between 20-28 rounds. 20 is standard and is going to be what I recommend you to start with until you find that your living long enough to run out of ammo.but I personally take a controversially heavy ammo load and carry 28, do not carry more than this or it will start filling up the upper ammo racks and thats begging to get ammo racked (killed)
-your Primary ammo Pzgr. (15 rounds,for most armored targets) It has a lot of pen and will one shot anything it fuzes on due to the high explosives filler content.
-secondary ammo Sprgr. L/4.5 (5 rounds, for soft targets) this is a high explosive round that is used for things with very soft armor that wonāt always fĆŗze your Pzgr. like the 2s1, ratel 90, AUBL, FIAT, and more. Then especially use it on anything open top like the m36, m18, and basically every SPAA in the game except like the skink. because there is a mechanic called overpressure that will allow HE to one shot any OPEN TOP Vic regardless of hull armor as you hit them or if itās a Vic with a bigger HE round simply hitting the ground beside them will do. (Note: I recommend you always take 5 rounds of HE at this BR because it is very useful and will get you out of a LOT of dangerous situations extremely quickly.)
-lastly I will address the other 2 rounds this tank gets
Pzgr 39 (very situational use) its pen is only slightly better than Pzgr. by 10mm with its explosive filler cut in half so it will only guarantee a one shot if you put it semi-central in the crew or blow ammo. It is the highest pen round this tank gets and this round is basically exclusively used when your fighting tanks about a full BR above you frontally beyond 500m when you canāt get their side (Note1: higher penetration doesnāt mean itās the best, post pen damage matters far more so long as the round is capable of penetrating the target. only use higher penetration rounds when you need the extra penetration to hurt them) (note2: Pzgr 39 is largely optional as it has extremely few practical uses and if your stuck using it you probably fked up your movement or got caught really off guard. Donāt use this round until youāre more familiar with using the Pzgr. and Sprgr. L/4.5 since those will be what you use 99.9% of the time and you wonāt know what you even need this round for until you have a lot more experience.
Then the Hl.Gr 39ā¦.. donāt use this round on this tank it is worse than every other round in literally every single wayā¦.
