Gaijin have fixed the crashes pretty much. Can't buy a win at the moment in American tier 1 tanks. Some right fools playing which have resulted in a lot of slanging matches between teammates. Unfortunately no one has started an argument with me yet. I have however egged people on...
Also the Tier 4 German tanks onward start to get more balanced with their Soviet counterparts. At tier 3 The IS-1 owned the Tiger, despite it's pretty thin flank armor.
