Why can't i hit anything now?

Blavod's Photo Blavod 30 Aug 2012

When I first bought my Hellcat I got it with a 75% crew, and at about 80% they could hit a gnat's knackers at 500meters. Now they are struggling to hit a tank, even a big one like an M6, anywhere, at 200meters. This has been a consistent theme for the past few weeks. Why is this? Anyone else experiencing this?

Don't hit the green part it's a 0 damage hit.

Thats the thing, sometimes I think my crew would struggle even with that as a target.

ETA Nor am I firing banjos, even though it feels like it sometimes.

funny boys trolling again. Some games you can“t hit anything even if it fills the sights some games every snap shot you take hits. Random is random.

Last battle, IS-3 100m away, I could see the whole top of his turret, it was filling the aiming circle. 3 shots, all missed. I swear this game hates me.

Are you using the 90mm?  I have been experiencing this as well.  I have noticed that there is greater dispersal of shot within the reticle that with other tanks I.e. shot not going to center of green reticle circle but firing to the edges.  While this can happen hence the reticle setting the boundaries of your shot dispersal, i notice that most other tanks the shot will still stay mostly to the center of the reticle for 80% of the time, not for m18.

Cant explain it but my advice is persist until you crew is 100%+ as its a good anti tank and still fun to play :Smile_blinky:

Yep. Also as you say, it is nowhere near as prevalent on other tanks. Crew are at 97%.

I have noticed that high ping and lags could make misses. I have those too, so dont worry. You said, that you have shoot tanks over 500 m, so they is a greater chance to misses. -Judas
