Well, as it's a static gun TD that is relatively slow, play it like the (I)SU-152 I assume.

Play it while drunk, obviously. Mind you, with the (relatively) short reload, I'd play it more aggressively than the (I)SU-152... But then again, I play everything *too* aggressively, including most of my SPGs. :izmena:

Yeah. Two eggs over easy, three pieces of toast heavily buttered, some sausages.... Wait, you mean for the tank. Okay.

 

Snipe until you know where people are and if you can out trade them or not based on their remaining HP. For DPM to work you need to catch someone out of cover. Never trade on corners unless you know they can't shoot back or if that you need to take the other guy out.

 

Fun fact of the day: WG revenue increased by about 20% during the first half of 2020 compared to 2019.

I still have my 10-battle rental here. As I got it for free on NA, and it's the worst prem I've played tbh. You do badly regardless what you do, so I have no plans to take advantage of those 10 battles.

The amount of spare cash you have as Student is truly frightening ....... or are us, the great British taxpayer, paying for your Pixel pleasure and getting you pissed on cheap Vodka?

I can completely empathize with this happening. Although there was no World of Tanks when I was a student, I can remember going out on a night of drinking with friends and sobering up to find myself in bed with a small blonde girl with a welsh accent. My first thought was I have never previously found the Welsh accent attractive. At that point the tips I needed to play were (a) what the hell was her name, and (b) how was I going to find out politely.

Same recipe as above but sprinkle as much gunpowder as would lie on a sixpence on your toast and eggs.

Honestly? Drunk or not, people just buy everything. :D (no offense)

As for getting that "Thing", I think you should play it just like any glass canon tank. Because there's no armor whatsoever. 

I've played in the Su-122 and it's carrying the same gun, but the only difference between them is the mobility, and the extra gun dep of the 122S (-6 instead of -5).

No alcohol for you!

To be constructive, I don't have that tank, so cant help in any specific way other than: dont get shot

Did you get drunk because someone else made your thread?

You could have done worst things than that, whilst in an inebriated state.

Students these days don't know they're born.

In my day we had to make our own amusement when we got back late and drunk

She was probably impressed that you had not abandoned her at closing time for an attractive sheep

Someone blew a fuse :teethhappy:

Probably upset with USA voting. 

 

@Saxan, best way (at least most entertaining) is to go with heavies and shoot enemies. Camping sucks. When bottom tier try not to be a frontline tank, thats where I go wrong in my SU-122-44.
