For some terrible reason I want to try out arty with battle assistant. What line will be the best for t1-t5? Im not sure if I want to go beyond that yet. Ooh I just realized the KV-2 line goes to an arty how is that one?

FTR posted:according to private Storm’s comments on supertester forum, VK3002DB stats suck and it will be buffed Yes. Yes! One more tier seven medium to join my Comet in the 'nearly as good as a T29' group! The thing already has decent armor and good mobility and soft stats. There isn't much they can buff without making the whole tank ridiculous. Maybe just up the pen on the 88 or rate of fire on the 75? Now if only they'd reduce the Comet's matchmaking weight so it isn't treated as a heavy we'll be in business. I think I get an Ace in the Comet every four or five games.

I actually played the other Russian artillery at that tier, but the main difference is that the S-51 was faster and more maneuverable, while the one I played was a barn with a gun. They do great damage for that tier.

Im gunning for the Grille now. By way of the marder. Thank god they let you skip some low level arties as I feel like they probably suck to play.

If you can get the loving thing to hit its target it is a nasty bastard though. Hits like an arty 2 or 3 tiers higher than it. The tiny traverse arc and the extremely long reload time are trying.

The FV304 is the only fun arty IIRC. Or you can play the KV-2 with the illegal arty view mod, but I never used it and don't know how well it would work.

I weep for anyone that wants a 261 these days!

BadLlama posted:Haven't read FTR in months open it up and find the following "Churchill Black Prince is gaining fame amongst some of the staff that plays and players too, apparently the tank is “comfortable” to drive and reliable, despite the slow speed and rather weak caliber gun, it makes it up for the superb accuracy and reload along with good armor layout". That is the Stockholm Syndrome talking. Compared to the Churchill I and Churchill VII the Black Prince is indeed a better tank but that doesn't make it a good tank by any stretch of the imagination especially when you compare it to all of the other tier seven heavy tanks except for maybe the AMX M4 1945.

Holy crap, you can get account banned for "Unsportsmanlike Conduct" ! Maybe submitting a ticket when people suicide intentionally or intentionally sabotage their team will do something? AhAHAHAHAH just kidding 1488 is still around and I am an egregious offender. I'm surprised this was only for a day considering how much of an rear end in a top hat I am Will reply again if they tell me exactly what behavior led to me getting hit for a day.

Hellsau posted:Holy crap, you can get account banned for "Unsportsmanlike Conduct" ! Huh that's interesting. Someone must have gone to the effort of submitting a real support ticket along with a replay and/or screenshots and gotten a sympathetic support tech who processed the ticket. When I can't take pubbies anymore I've gone on drowning jags where I rotate dunking or crashing an Object 140, a Bat Chat or the FV4202 over and over and over until I get bored or I burn through a million plus credits in repair costs. I used to do it in all of my tier 10 mediums but I actually like the other ones and don't want to ruin my stats in them because I'm a vain stat-padding motherfucker. Numerous people have claimed to have reported me (presumably via the in-game report system) and nothing has ever come of it.

I really wouldn't call the invincible BP's armour layout "good", it is however "bullshit RNG defeater".

Comfortable is how I'd rate the Black Prince. Its easy to drive, it will bounce a ton it shouldn't, the gun works well enough. The thing is, it isn't very good. Sure, compared to the poo poo parade that is the Church7 before it, the BP is incredible. But compared to most any other tier 7 heavy? Noooooope.

I quit this game a year ago, and my life has been better since that decision. For some reason, I saw this thread and clicked it. Is this game still horrible and unfun while also being full of the most retarded slime on the internet? In other words, should I come back?

Wow, I am a total retard. Evidently I can access the alpha test forums in Armored Warfare, which means I was apparently invited into the Alpha focus testing at some point. Sad thing is I never got an email notifying me, and this is after I recovered my old deleted emails and junk folder just to see if I missed it. Yup, I have to agree the steamrolling in matches really has gotten worse for some absurd reason. Winning doesn't even seem as much fun when its like that.

Uranium 235 posted:Except the AMX M4 mle 45, it's the worst. Run the 105mm on the M4 45, run only APCR, play it exactly like a T-43 or VK3002D. Congratulations, you have a 1200 hp tier 7 medium with 330 alpha, great DPM and insane pen, and the gun handling and armor problems don't matter anymore since you're face to face brawling and HP trading anyway. The M4 45 is good with gold spam, which is way more than other bad tier 7s can say. Just having great pen and DPM makes it head and shoulders above other terrible tier 7s. It's basically a Chi-Ri with cheaper ammo and more pen and better DPM and more HP.
