NTRabbit posted:Second last game before I decided to take a break yesterday a T49 one shot + one tick of fire my Bulldog both on the move doing a scouting run on the lovely 3 lane asian map, it's not that bad, especially against lights and mediums if you don't overextend like a Bulldog or 13 90 can. If every shot goes perfectly into somewhere it'll pen, then a lot of tanks get better. The T49 has .6 accuracy and insane bloom, so that isn't very often. The T49 is actually poo poo against mediums because they have enough armor to avoid getting HE penned, enough HP to survive some hits, and enough speed and DPM to chase you down.

http://www.twitch.tv/pukanuragan A good Russian players is streaming the Obj 260. And sure enough it's an IS-7 that goes 20 uphill, 45+ on flats effortless and the gun seems to be better too.

Overall it seems very nice but the gun is not just upside compared to the S-70 - it's a little more accurate and faster aiming, but it's got less alpha and the shells are... well, the APCR shell is straight better than the IS-7's AP, but the IS-7's APCR (303 pen, 1125 m/s) probably beats both the 260's APCR (260, 1259) and HEAT (340, 900). The track bloom is just lovely though at 0,17. Also the sound mod he's running is so good.

Medium side armour isn't all that great, and I see T49s prank climbing mediums in the side for 600+ hp by getting to places fast in the early map often enough for it to be annoying. It's annoying in a similar way to the 183mm guns, stupid as gently caress and shouldn't be there.

That's why WG refuses to allow 5 tanks super platoon.

Seriously, what would you rather have on your team, 1 or 2 2800 wn8 unicums that will farm wn8, or 5 green/teal players in one big platoon that will push a flank and never stop pushing?

The idea of starting a match and seeing 5 platooned T-54s on one side would probably make me quit right there. Or what would happen more often, 1 Maus and 4 tier 1 tank, or 5 TOGs. Although with 5 TOGs the enemy side runs a real risk of running out of ammo before killing all 5 of them.

Thing is that I don't think I'd get that. I'd get 5 "unicums" that'd be padded out the rear end who intentionally turn the game into a 10v15 that they then fail to clean up (but with lots of WN8 gained, natch), or I'd get 5 deep reds that would manage to somehow be even less coordinated than usual.

I really wish pubbies in NA behaved like Russian pubbies. At least if your team sucks you would still be guaranteed a rocking battle. Every moment I watched in that guy's stream was full of action that would make your average NA pubbie poo poo his pants, turn tail, and find the furthest building to hide behind.

Exceptions are due to hubris or retard strength on the 'bad' team like 10 man valley capfast pushes on lakeville.

I thought they changed their thought on it so that it'd be 15vs15 with 3 superplatoons on each team, no superplatoons in "normal" battles (so it'd be like wintermode). But then they decided to scrap that as well. I guess the MM would explode if they tried or something?

Atal Vataman posted:accuracy nerf was completely destructive to the flow of the game. instead of doing fast peeks and firing or shooting on the move, you now have to stop and aim if you are to have any chance of hitting your shots. unaimed shots seems to hit a completely random point within your aimcircle, no bias towards the middle at all. its terrible  Really sucks for the church III because it reloads faster that it aims so you can't just spam fire any more, going to unmount GLD on it since it's pretty worthless. I've had a couple of game losing moments from it so far: tried to reset a cap in my T29 and the closest I could get was so the aim circle just about covered the capping tank except for a few pixels either side, of course three shots in a row went to the extremes of the circle and they capped. Missed a shot from about 15 metres in the open because I wasn't fully aimed in and a few pixels of aim circle weren't covering the tank. I kind of understand their reasoning for it and when that dispersion diagram showed up it looked reasonable but it's really unfun in practice.

 Matilda 4 is alright. The pubbies at those tiers trying to do missions in the most hilarious ways is amazing. Mine was the easy one. Just click and hit 6 times. Most of the missions have been completed so far using this tank. I don't remember if I posted this, but it is pretty amusing.  That was the first shell I fired too. gently caress the pubbies, got my gold.

Ok, help me figure out crew retraining. I am about to buy a T25/2, aiming toward the T30. I'm not planning on selling the Hellcat, so I'd like to leave that crew there. I have a three skill crew in my M53/55 from when I played arty almost exclusively over a year ago that's more or less gathering dust since my interest in SPGs has waned. I'd like to retrain those guys into the fine world of turreted TDs. The crew loadout in the M53/55 is commander (C), driver (D), gunner x2 (G), and loader x2 (L). The loadout in the T25/2 and T28proto is CDGL plus a radio operator(R). The loadout in the T30 is CDGLLR (two loaders). My plan is to immediately retrain CDGL from the M53/55 to T25/2, and retrain the R from the Hellcat to the T25/2. Then replenish the crews on the M53 and Hellcat from fresh recruits. Then after however many weeks or months it takes me to grind to the T30, I retrain the second three-skill loader from the M53/55 to the T30, and replace that guy with a fresh recruit. I'd like to do all of this when they have half off crew retraining (which seems to happen fairly often). Does this seem like the best way to do this?
