Wow, hadn't noticed that. Makes sense of there being a lot more arty hits. It's not quite as good as the PC one, but I was against it being added the moment I heard about it over a year ago. It makes arty even easier to use, which is a bad thing. I'm not an arty hater, but I support making it more challenging/fun I'm still not sold on the feature. It's probably confirmation bias, but it seems to work better when I play my FV305, but sucks when I'm running my skill cannon or 155 58.
I damn near got vertigo the first time I used it

I only played 3 matches, 2 of which were city maps. The non city map was my only decent match( hey it's been awhile lol). I think once arty players get some real experience with it there will be more issues.

Ran a couple more battles and it’s probably me, but it seems like the shells fly high when I’m in the new view mode. Definitely an adjustment.

Its an interesting way to try and pinpoint a shot on a stationary tank. You get a better idea of the angle your shell is going to come in at, especially when firing at enemies behind cover. You can see a shells point of view on how big a target you have.

Seems they nerfed BERT again...
The new arty view is alright but its more difficult to lead shots with it. Its great for really really slow tanks or immobile ones. It also moves pretty dang slow which allows the bloom to stay tighter. For me its alright, helps with hill shits for sure but overall its kind of a bother to use. Since you cant aim at the gound directly ehind the tank it becomes difficult to drop a shot if the enemy is rocking back and forth. Often times my shots fly too far past the tank. Also the transition is awkward and needs to be instantt instead of a flying camera pan. I tried using it for counter battery once. The extra field of vision is kind of nice but originating the tracer can be problematic. I wouldnt recommend using this view to shoot unspotted tracers but maybe use it to search for them. Maybe just need some more experience is all.
Not a big fan of the platoon changes but i suppose it was necessary. Going to miss tooning my S51 with 9s and BERT with 7s and all. Glad they didnt nerf the S51 at least. However not being able to toon 9s with 10 or preferred MM tanks with the lower tier equivalent is silly, maybe theyll fix it... Or maybe theyll just keep fuckin stuff up who knows.
Anyone notice any new invisible barriers or lack of? Damn K1 hill on el halluf still got noobs camping on it
No ELC buff though. Dont these new numbers tell them it needs it after i stopped playing it so much lol

It makes aiming harder in many situations, leading the target and shooting at a specific height on a moving tank. It doesn't benefit or reduce arty effectiveness at all. It's just different. If you dont ever use it, you aren't at any disadvantage.

It sucks. Completely. It wouldn't be so bad if we could count on them to correct the mistakes in the next update. But they won't. They might correct some of it in about 2 years. But the biggest problem is that they don't play their own game and therefore might not ever recognize the problems they created.
