The bad thing is that your shell can hit like the tiniest overhang of some outside pixel and detonate the shell when reality is the shell would have just knocked that piece off with minimal penetrative impact. Before volumetric was introduced, shells didn't actually have a size, the shell would be calculated to be a pixel wide so massive shells could slip into tiny space.

@punic4045

honestly the only way to properly use the KV-1's armor is to A N G L E. In fact basically every Soviet tank hinges on angling your armor to survive any enemy shells. Flanking is the best strategy for any T-34, and the KV-1 is good at dueling other tanks, but using cover makes it even more powerful. I've been playing almost exclusively Soviet, and I think the only way to even be good at them is to know how to use your tank's strong points in every way possible. They don't benefit from pointing and clicking (most of them, anyway) to kill things unless it's from the side, and it's actually quite easy to penetrate their armor, especially the turret, and especially if they don't angle. So flanking, angling, and essentially being the first to shoot is how you survive most encounters. (I don't have premium and after reaching 5.7 I stuck to playing 4.3 because that was the most fun for me. I haven't played top tier or much Cold War era so I don't know anything about that.)

It sounds like it is more applying to medium, more standard vehicles like Panzer IV. However Germans lost many crewmen it is possible that they even could not replace elite crews for Tigers and gave those to halfly / under trained crews as the great war continued.

So i got a tiger finally and the advice in here was helpful. I did notice some of the same problems. One issue i have though is the issue of identifying a jumbo, their move speed in relation to the tiger, and the resistance to penitration both angled and un-angled; when it comes to saying the tiger is better than the jumbo. The commanders hatch is a hole different issue when it comes to tanks and the shell simulation, and we can't undo those who put bushes on the front of every tank or just the jumbo to hid the weakness. Another issue is that if you can't identify a jumbo from a regular Sherman it doesn't matter if you get the first shot off. I'd be interested to see a video from you where you covered how you would rework battle ratings (I've enjoyed the few occasions it has come up) and maybe a guide on how to identify specific tanks or tank types when it is hard to tell them apart. Love your videos.

when you shoot the mg port of the jumbo your fired round:i do not exist proceeds to dissapear

hello everybody, this is me. I am THE german player that he is talking about, and I want to touch on a few things. First, and this may not apply to every player, but I didn't choose germany as my first because I heard about it in documentaries. I did becaue I love modern german vehicles, and respect the WW2 - Cold War vehicles based on pre-gained knowledge. Second, yeah. Playing germany sucks, and I always feel like complaining. Currently have a sporadic 5.7 lineup at my best, and I am always getting penned in the Tiger. At this br, i find that the sherman is actually better than the tiger. The sherman is able to frontal the tiger thru the flat section always, even angled. But im also able to frontal every sherman except for jumbo, so its almost like we are equal? but shermans have far better maneuverability. third, and not quite mentioned in the video, but considering its basically a rant at this point, I might as well continue. I hate american players so much. I always feel like they consider themselves the underdogs, because we are germany. We house some of the most famous pieces of war in history, right? But we cant do anything when they just shoot our barrels or APHE our cupolas (fixed in the tiger E). Yes we can destroy shermans almost everywhere, but so can they! I have a really hard time getting through angled shermans, and the fronts of the turrets. I just feel like there are far too high expectations for german players. thanks to the like 1 person that sees this lmao

I have played both extensively, Have around 1400 hours. The tiger is amazing I prefer it to the panther. I suggest trying shermans if you think its that easy.

You should make a "the jumbo problem" video now, the people who play jumbo litearly go out into the open vs like 5 enemy people and expect to not die no cap.

ik this is an old video, but the mg port on the jumbo is objectively harder to hit than the cupola on the H1... and the bush that every jumbo has makes it even harder. and also, a jumbo just has to wiggle to make it all but impossible to hit the mg port, but the tiger cannot really do that becaues of the size and location of the coupula...

Most of the time i play with the Tiger i get 5 or 7 kills, i really don't fear Shermans. T-34-85s are more dangerous in my opinion but if they miss their shot they are dead.

At least the jumbo is somewhat survivable. With the 76 shermans you have to aim for small weakspots while german llayers can just hover their mouse on you and click

a part two on this that looks at trees like Italy and Britain, which haven't greatly improved even after the balance changes, would be greatly appreciated

Tiger Player: Oh boy a Sherman! *Doesn't realizes its a Jumbo* Me: Do they understand that my Jumbo has 7 inches of armor for the Turret front? I'm getting tired of bouncing their shots.

I had this one time where the game glitched and a Tiger I with APHE penned the heaviest armored part of the Jumbo's turret going through pretty much 200mm of armor. It was either a glitch or a few pixels where there was no armor lol. I reported that to gaijin and they fixed it, at least that is what they said.

I think I know why the Jumbo was removed from the Techtree in World of Tanks Blitz,it didnt fit the stereotype of the Sherman and was a bit good,so instead of balancing it they removed access to it.....just like my Favorite Tier 3 TD,the T-82,too good so they made it impossible to get and even then it was still good so they simply made everyone that had it be stuck with its mediocre Howitzer(Mediocre compared to its best Howitzer.....RIP T-82)

This is historically accurate, they are using child soldiers now, its 1945 now

as a germany player I have to admit, the jumbo really made me angry when I first encountered it... but it didn't really take much to find out the MG Port is their weakpoint, my only problem is to identify the tank from far away in RB as a Jumbo and not a normal M4 since Shermans look all the same to me and there are like infinte versions of the M4A3 so which one is the Jumbo.... all these things are what really safes those Jumbo Players from gettin oneshot by me. If I get a second shot, that's it for the Jumbo, and by angling the armor and keeping distance the Tiger really overpowers the Jumbo(IF YOU TURN ON YOUR BRAIN XD)

This is one factor, the other is that any encounter from more than 200 meters you can't reliable aim for the mg. I lost count of how many times I overshoted a little and my shell hit the stronger plate instead of that sweet mg. Well, sometimes they are brain dead themselves and try to aim at your hull, so you get a second chance. But most of them realize sooner or later(usually sooner) that they need to shot at your turret.
