    The IS7 is the first tier X I got (still only got just 2 tier X's) , somehow I get that kind of matchmaking a lot with IS7 but also not doing too bad with the tank.
    It is a tank that is good at brawling and can take a hit , I like the speed from it and the gun hits for nice dmg but sometimes can be very unreliable.
    When you saw grille and some lights in those games I really wished you shot HE at them it has if Im not mistaking 60 pen? I mostly load HE right away when I am seeing light armoured tanks.

  • @leereiyuu
    @leereiyuu 2 роки тому

    I want to answer your question about how I think about the IS7: I started playing in 2011 and the IS7 was my first tier 10 tank and I absolutely hated it. I had such good times with the tanks before that: The IS3 and the IS4, just the best life. And then the IS7...it was such a letdown.
    And still in 2022, after all this years I never managed to even get one mark of excellence on this one.
    I think the gun is so terrible. Not the low pen, no, but the RNG is so completely random: I miss shots where I am sure they will be hits and then again just random aimless rage-shots hit. How am I supposed to work with that?

    I would be ok with the IS-7 if the gun accuracy was a little better, the low pen with inability to land shots on the lower glac of tanks is some times frustrating. I added improved aiming and finally got my WR in it to 54%, before it was sub 50%

    @benwpianocovers628 3 роки тому

    South spawn definitely better, at least 70-30 to south spawn. Also, for some reason I cant make the IS-7s gun handling work, it acts like a KV-2 for me, so I dont really like it. In general, IS-7 is still a decent tank though.

  • @DIREWOLFx75
    @DIREWOLFx75 3 роки тому

    No, the south isn't vastly better on that map, at least not for that reason. The triple crossfire thing only happens if the south team plays REALLY WELL and the north, does NOT.
    The south does have a small advantage along the 1-2 lines because of better lines of fire for units while hidden, but the north has a slightly better sniper nest and the H9 hideout that can be really annoying to counter for south team.
    Likewise, if south plays poorly, then THEY end up in a triple crossfire from F3 and H9/G9/F9, and it can be almost as devastating.
    And if whole team defends well, either of those crossfire situations can be dealt with and turn the game on them. Just a few days ago I played south and managed to get to the C8 position with 2 others while another trio took the western crossfire position. And the north team bunkered down in the middle while everyone not there in the crossfire(or fast enough) maneuvered superbly and turned it back at us, managed to put both our flanking positions in their crossfire.
    We did quite some damage, but in the C8 position, we got fired at from the middle, from the sniper nest, from atop the hill and from the 3 meds that dashed via D8 to E9 and made defense utterly impossible once they came behind us. Didn't matter that they took 1-2 hits each while doing it, 2 of them were still alive when me and the other two with me were not, even if they didn't have much HP left, they still crushed us decisively.
    I didn't see exactly what went on west, but their team got their other meds and light to E3, including 2 autoloaders. My team's tanks there vanished in less than 15 seconds once the north team tanks in the middle turned their guns from the brand new wrecks around me and towards the west instead.

    Hi Skill! Nice video again! I like the IS-7, it is a beast! I think vents and rammer have to be on, always!
    As 3d option, could be: improved configuration, improved hardening (for more trollish armor), or improved aiming..! I don't think turbo is so beneficial, since the tank has good speed, as standard.
    And a small note for the third battle. You could be win if all three of you, were trying to cap, since the other flank was already lost and the enemies were away.. Maybe not however, and certainly with no fun..! 😉

      Sorry, my bad - it is a tier4 (out of 10 tiers)

    Last time I played IS7 probably 7 years ago...did it get buffed? The gun would always bounce for me. The armor was nice but the gun just couldn't penetrate. I think it is a pile of Caku.😃

    I ve got serius question. With full crew i can have on med about 430m of spoting. The optics theoreticly will give me view range about 500. But max view range is about 450. Does those extra 50m of view range give me anything? For example i can spot better people within those 450?

      The maximum distance at which you can spot an enemy is 445m (not 450m). But higher viewrange can counter enemys camouflage

    I still only have one Tier 8, the IS3. Would it be recommend to go for the IS7 or the Object 277. From history I have always loved the T10 (Tier 9)
