Great video! it will help those looking for it. I’d like to say this too as a 7 yr player of the game; If you are newer to this game just know it’s like every other multiplayer game where some days you do great and some days you’ll struggle. The game is great but the grind will be real. Still my favorite game to play though 👍
Any time you have questions there are always people here that will be happy to answer them. You'll find some good players here that know the game pretty well... they've certainly helped me a few times
Grinding is mire difficult and less rewarding now since Downgrade 6.0. Good advice for new players but if they have zero silver consumables are to expensive. Cheaper to die quickly and move onto the next game, they will make more silver and hopefully learn from their in game errors.without a good training system with some basic silver and XP rewards new players will struggle.
when i started playing i chose my lines i wanted by seeing the tank and how it performs on the enemy team. first time i saw a kv4 was quite painful but it made me want to try it myself
Great video and very helpful after I repeated a few sections several time . Most all my complaints here are either my own fault due to poor knowledge or terrible hearing , and thats where I wanted to offer a suggestion . When your on sections like perks move through the perks from left to right and then down to the next row . Now at this point I should know my perks better , but if I was brand knew to the game like I was a short time ago it was a little hard to follow the perk section of the video because of the bouncing around with the perk menu . This might be stuff to add to the notes . You explained the why well , but if a person isn’t familiar with them then it can shoot over . I even had closed captions on due to poor hearing . Well as everyone knows Captions is kinda like voice text , you don’t always get what you said typed out . Again I want to say the video is great and helps fill in a lot of the blanks , but slowing down on the controller and being a bit more uniform in the movements would probably help the older. Crowd and hearing impaired follow along . I mean the better we teach the new players the less complaining we’ll probably have about bad teams .
Currently sitting at a 56% win rate. I think my main issue is that I don't do that great in clutch scenarios unless the people left aren't very good. I lose my smart plays and start playing bad and missing shots and so on. It's not a huge deal but can sometimes leave me feeling like I could have done so much more. Maybe it also doesn't help I like derp tanks a lot lol
I am a firm believer it’s a good tank when it’s maxed out. It’s strong but slow it’s a good tank to trade shots with but not one that should try to out dpm someone
Very good information for beginners! Can you please make a video on tactics & strategies for cold war mode? I am doing good in WW2 but getting steamrolled in CW mode!
i think perks are crucial. You got those first 3, then better acuracy, then better view. After that i go to mobility off road and rotation of the tank.
As far as most new player friendly lines go - you can't go wrong with American tanks, regardless of the class, they're all super user friendly and offer high skill ceilings so you can develop yourself as a player in them ALOT... Russians will also do nicely for learning how armor and sidescraping works but the switch to pike nosed tanks in tier 8 can be a tricky obstacle for some who don't have a good grasp on how geometry works. I'd largely avoid light and medium tanks in tiers 5 and higher until you learn the maps and positions, especially french, german, chinese etc. - they require very VERY good game knowledge overall to be used correctly. Tank destroyers vary, some are easier to play some harder but again I'd recommend you go with the Americans first as they offer the most versatile tanks throughout their TD lines. Stealthy, armored, quick, slow, turreted, non turreted, it's all there. And finally, one of the biggest tips I can give you is BE PREPARED to play with usually about 14 incomprehensibly bad players on your team and usually about at least half on the enemy team as well, which is why I personally wouldn't recommend playing ANY tank in the game tier 5 and above without equipment and good consumables. You will more often than not have to make up for several braindead players on your team and you'll need every tool in the box to do so. Finally, until you can maintain a solid 58-60% WR over a month (all time results will always be skewed thanks to your early learning experiences unless you re roll so the last month is usually a more accurate reading) AVOID Czechoslovakian, French, Chinese and Swedish tanks... especially the French... they usually carry 1 or 2 strong traits while having to compensate for at least 4 bad ones out of which 1 or 2 are usually horrible (usually aim time and reload). Also, map knowledge + positioning beats armor 9 times out of 10, for a good player even 10/10. Avoid autoloading tanks in general until you get a good grasp of maps and positioning. When you do start the mediums and lights, I'd again recommend Americans first because they don't have glaring weaknesses and they're largely all jacks of all trades which is a good place to start. Russian lights are extremely strong as well as mediums but require a very VERY good knowledge of what you can and can't do. Good luck.
Japanese heavy line and any of the Soviet heavy lines are very noob friendly. I have a friend who just started and he absolutely loves the Japanese heavies because it allows him to play the game like a noob (which he is) I recommend them for noobs who want to have fun and frustrate experienced players
I'm grinding down them rn tbh I would say they're more of a noob trap than noob friendly, I only play it because I understand angling very well and understand situations that I will inevitably lose in because of the pathetic speed of the super heavies
@@FriendlyneighbourhoodA the only “noob trap” part of the Japanese heavy line would be the O-I in a Tier 8 game, but that’s identical to all other Tier 6 tanks. The O-Ni, O-Ho, and the Type 4+5 are great. Also, once you get to the Type 4 and 5, you’re most likely used to angling and other unique skills for the Japanese line. So I would say that the Japanese heavy line is indeed very noob friendly, just not in an uptier game, which is the same for all low tier tanks.
In the early stages it's better to concentrate on building your silver than keeping tanks you'll probably rarely ever play. Dig one hole & dig it deep, as they say. Oh & if you have the credits, cold war mode is a great place to earn silver. If you don't have the credits, complete this season & you'll earn a juicy era 2 premium that should earn you heaps of silver
After playing awhile if you don’t like the tank line even up to 8 perhaps you should try a different line out you can grind silver much quicker then xp
Giving the soviet heavy line to a new player would suck, the first thing they would learn is that armour is worthless and there’s no point playing something with no gun depression. That was my experience anyway. Those KVs are made of tin foil but ultimately you can never trust armour on anything aside from rare cases like the Maus.
IS4, 60TP, E100, Super Conc, and T110E5 are the easiest tanks to not suck in and learn the game. They are hard to pen even for good players and have good enough guns.
@@cloraformsgood5340 They are good lines and the easiest T10s to play once they get there. Biggest mistake new players make is going for specialized vehicles that require high knowledge of terrain, armor values, and strategy.
@@brasshound4442 yeah they are all good lines but these tanks need to be played by players with a solid knowledge of armour models aswell as game mechanics. From personal experience getting these tanks before being experienced leads to horrible losses and poor wrs. I personally think getting a good med as a first tier10 would be better and practice staying alive and farming from range. Front line heavies need to be reliable,played in position and a new player in those tanks is definitely not reliable and rarely knows where or how these tanks should be played which is probably why we see so many of these tanks camping .
@@jewishmonarch6657 not all tanks that are enjoyable have to be at a comp level. I meant competitive like against other t10s in normal battles. I think it will be just much more fun and enjoyable to play
@@ghostriders1806 I can't decide what others may or may not find enjoyable, whether it is or isn't is entirely down to them mate. The point I'm making is versus similar tanks, this tank still drags it feet. You can still reload a T57 twice in the time it takes to load all 3 shells of the Rhino, personally I think they should make the Rhino a 4 shot clip as that would give people more options in terms of play style as right now if you want to do well in the Rhino there is only a few ways of playing it to get the most out of it. It is has been more enjoyable to play for me albeit ever so slightly, you're still railroaded to play this tank a certain way even with the buffs.
Eclipse I have just started only 500 games I. And I still feel like I’m just don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I really like your videos but I still don’t feel like I have a great grasp on the game yet.
I play both modes and see the same things on either mode. Clueless teams and vets avoiding combat till the last quarter of battle. In both modes I see the veteran players moving away from where the main point of contact is .
You can work up to a tank line to get that tier 10 tank and wargaming nerf it to the point it's not worth playing anymore. If you become a victim of Wargamings player leveling system you can go on a 20 game straight loss, this will affect your win to loss stats and no matter what you do if they nerf you that win ratio will drop.
I don't recommend it, it's a biased game. When it favors you you kill everything you shoot at, dont worry about weak spots, and when not everything they shoot at you enters and they detect you from far, there is almost no fun.
These videos do not explain my games at all. I can be in a T57 aiming at the side or rear of a tier 9 medium 100km away and bounce 3 of 4 rounds. Completely ridiculous
Do not play WOT! No matter how good you are , how much you grind , the game will always make you play with more advanced players , so you will pay more and play more , it’s same old joke of a game

Been playing about a month and this is exactly what I was trying to understand in regards to armor and learning curves

I do the same btw
I played world of thanks for 5 years and I have 47%. So i'm a veteran NOOB DUMB after 5 years🤣🤣🤣🤣‼️
There's a lot of us about buddy... consistently average with occasional outbreaks of genius lol
Great introductory video. It helps to know what tech tree lines are beginner friendly. Keep up the good work.
Some more map guides would be fantastic, I've already become better from previous ones.

Hey folks, just a quick question - is the german IX heavy tank E75 any good on console? I'm struggling to make it work.
It use to be a good tank, but not sure in today's meta.
I am a firm believer it’s a good tank when it’s maxed out. It’s strong but slow it’s a good tank to trade shots with but not one that should try to out dpm someone
@@Chub-Chub_The_Third it's all about angling it. The top gun does hit for a good whack. I actually preferred it to the E100.
When I used it it was soooo good, but I’m not sure after the reforge
@@kippamip I believe it to be a good mix of what the Tiger II was and what the E-100 is. Angling in indeed your best friend using it
Just downloaded it, have like 8 games played, coming over from wows legends. This helped a bunch thank u🙏
Very good information for beginners! Can you please make a video on tactics & strategies for cold war mode? I am doing good in WW2 but getting steamrolled in CW mode!
It’s the same really, just keep in mind that true vision is a thing so less camping
What tank line are you playing? Strategies are many & varied
i think perks are crucial. You got those first 3, then better acuracy, then better view. After that i go to mobility off road and rotation of the tank.
Pool is a good example for angles

Great video I've taken the Maus down with a T110E5 so no armor ain't what wins it
Just started.
Trying to learn the grinding process?
Bought a tank got xp for the next one. Do I sell the lvl 1 for the lvl2?
I would sell the low tier vehicles up until tier 5.

Have you seen the buffs to the rhino and t8 and t9? The rhino will most likely become competitive
It's better but not comp level; T57, Machine and Kranny are still better choices.

Any tips for obj 705 I'm struggling to do good in it
Side scrape , be aggressive but try to keep your hp
Just keep that lower plate hidden & you're pretty impervious. Smaller dead tanks can be shoved around for that purpose too
Are the italian heavys now worth a frind?
Anybody else having issues with XP being credited towards contracts since this weekend?
Eclipse I have just started only 500 games I. And I still feel like I’m just don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I really like your videos but I still don’t feel like I have a great grasp on the game yet.
Do you spend gold on silver?
You can transfer gold to silver but it is not worth it, you get barely any. For example, around 8k gold will get you 3m silver
@@VahlusYT I know
Hard to believe anyone is still playing this game, everyone I know quit after 6.0 destroyed the playability. What a shame.
Haha the maus was my first 10 tank like 6 years ago I feel personally attacked 😅
Eclipse if you want to send some of that silver my way your more than welcome 🤣🤣
I play maus a lot actually its not that good buts its way to underratetet
Great video
No matter how well I do I always lose silver bc of the consumables so don’t actually bring them they just make u lose silver
thank you.
has anyone been having loading issues for simply booting up the game and i keep getting into my games late becasue of this. so plz send help
Most of your advice is learn the game. But I came to this video to learn lol
The game is, what, twelve years old now, and getting very few new players... only those could benefit from this video.
I run about 68-70 % but 47% is actually not bad.
for me first tank was e100.
Ww2 is almost forbidden for me now, teams are collapsing faster than ice-cream in sahara desert, fck it, only cold war 🤟
Yes join the dark side💪💪

@@cloraformsgood5340 agreed... I don't see much difference between either mode except you get more Yolo and light tank swarming in Cold War mode.
