It looks like fun, but is it really that much different in play style than the tech tree AMX? A little more burst damage, but I'll take that trade off for functioning camo.
I am not sure I can answer clearly.
briefly, I’m a lot more agressive in the 57 than in the 75, which has better camo and smaller clip, or the 90, which has similar clip total alpha but lot more difficult environment. But I haven’t played those in a while so maybe I would be more aggressive nowadays ?
I used to play the tech tree amx13-90 already more like a batchat, a lot more cautious and distant, as an opportunist.
Meanwhile amx13-57 is more like old ELC and AMX 12, a lot more brash and yolo. AMX12 because basically you can’t start if you ever break ur speed, which forces a drive by shooting approach. AMX13 57 because without camo, you might as well not stop and shoot from close. ELC because it was hilarious.
In fact, like what Spartacus Diablo described : aerian raid. Rush in when they aren’t looking, unload everything u got and fly away before they got time to turn to you. And that’s a style that was more akin to the amx12 IMO. Also like the ELC : try to have them chase you and spread the enemy thin, isolate them and give your 6 noobs the chance to overcome inferior enemy.
in comparison with all these tanks, I have never liked the -75 much because it was in between, and the clip wasn’t worth it IMO. But some people liked it more than the -90, I’m just not one of them.
in a word, I had a lot of fun with the tech tree and just a lot more with the 57. but with 3K games, maybe I’m biased...
