Mesadoram posted:Sounds about as much fun as a rectal prolapse. I cant wait to "carry" pubbies in a tank that moves slower than a dead snail rolling down a molasses mountain. I still ended up with a win rate of 60% in my T95 and I am a worse player than you with worse clan mates. My tactic in the T95 was simple, follow the heavy advance and either hold a collapsing flank or push through a dead-lock. It is basically only Tier10 TDs that can threaten the T95 from the front, so that worked surprisingly well. I liked the T95 more than I like my E3 mostly due to a better armour layout. My favourite thing in the T95 was to bully tier10 heavies with the great gun and the armour. But yeah, if you can't deal with slow, stay the gently caress away from the T95.

Uranium 235 posted:Is the FCM 50t not good at making credits? It seems like it's the best t8 prem for players who are good. Pref mm, very mobile, very good gun with high DPM, supposedly cheap ammo, good gun depression. It's huge and has no armor, but that's where the being good comes in. If there's one thing I'm sure of in WoT, it's that the FCM 50t is the best tank in the game. Pref MM means that you never ever see tier 10s, and you get to poo poo on tier 6/7s all day. It's got the firepower, HP, and armor of a heavy, but with the speed and agility of a medium. It is the most profitable tank in all of WoT. It's got the accuracy to snipe, the stability to fire effectively on the move, the penetration to take on heavier targets, the RoF to win knife fights, the maneuverability to flank and reposition, and even the view range to effectively scout, all with a good armor layout. Sometimes I get sad that I missed out on getting a Type 59, but then I remember that I own an FCM 50t and I get happy again.

One round I took my T95 valley on Lakeville, but only after telling the rest of my team to get their asses to the city and then making sure they actually listened. I killed 5 of 7 enemy tanks in the valley and then got flanked because 14 of my teammates couldn't kill 8 of theirs. I guess the moral of this story is this: gently caress pubs forever.

Yeah, that is why you wiggle your T95 while not shooting. Worked reasonably well. That is my preferred killspot on the T95 as well, and it is double fun doing it on another T95.

You can't do the same stupid charges (more slowly rumble forwards in the T95 case) in the E3 since the LFP is more exposed. Mind you, I suck in the E3 so far. As for better armour layout, I meant all around armour. The T95 have better side armour with spaced armour. Regardless, I enjoyed my time in the T95 once I took it for what it was.

I really liked the T95 and I think I have my highest winrate out of any high tier tanks in it. With clutch braking it can turn surprisingly quickly, which most people don't expect. Otherwise, get to arty cover, preferably in a bottleneck, and deliver american freedom into the hulls of the unwashed foreigners while they bounce just about everything off you. It might be slow as poo poo, but it's one of the few tanks in the game that actually has armor worth a drat. On a side note, I tried out the FV215b 183 tonight. It's slow as poo poo, handles like poo poo, takes forever to traverse and aim in and seems generally unpleasant. But then I one-shotted a full health T32 and couldn't stop giggling. So it's a dumb bad tank with a hilarious gimmick.

Worst and most hilarious case of tunnel vision in a while, or how do you not see a SU-14-2 creeping up behind you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=To08VNgktZE Standard KV-5 game on North America with a brutal brawl in the middle where the KV-5 show why it is great. We almost loses it in the end though with 4 tanks vs 2 one-shottable tanks. The really horrible thing starts from 8:30 and watch our KV-13 especially. If I could punch someone through the monitor I would have done so with that player. 14k battles and still don't know how to handle a TD. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEvSarSb7m0

Rincewinds posted:If you spawn in the north, the circle in the middle is a bush with two trees in it, next to a building, if you park yourself in there with binos, you can spot the tanks going east in the south and tanks on the ridge in the west. Similarly, if you spawn in the south, you can take a chance and go to the bush before the tanks in the north have time to go south in the zero line, it is risky but if you succeed, you will spot tanks on the ridge in the north, heavies moving in the east and perhaps even arties. Wanted to thank you for posting this, got north spawn in my Type 62 (yes I bought one and it is worth the 20$) and went to that bush. The game ended with 1.5k xp, 1.7k done and over 4k damage spotted, I was 600 xp ahead of the 2nd on my team easily getting the "be top xp" mission.

rossmum posted:My first battle in Yamato was historically accurate: I shot at someone and then got torped by planes and capsized. My second was better, I dunked some lower tier BBs. My third? That must have been one lucky shot. Nagato has enough HP that it shouldn't be sunk in one shot unless you hit something critical. Also... at that distance it had to be plunging fire... How much armor does the Nagato have again on its decks? Still.. Bet you can't do that twice. Also, no longer playing Tanks is one of the best thing anyone can do in their lives. So much less frustration. In your case tho, at least you were good at it.
