Well I mean the only real way to win abbey is to end the round as fast as possible so that looks solid to me.

rossmum posted:Accuracy nerf chat: haven't noticed it. Actually, my snapshots seem to be landing more now Well, did you see that image showing spread before and after patch? According to that, yes there will be less shots hitting the very center of the reticle, but there will also be a lot more shots hitting just outside the very middle, and fewer towards the edges. So...yeah.

The accuracy nerf never felt like much of a nerf, the amount of poo poo that seems to land on snap shots feels really high. I've had a lot of hits from things that in the past wouldn't have gotten near me.

Anyone on the fence about getting the SU-122-44, here's a replay when I was top tier and had the just right amount of bads on my team as well as the red team. http://wotreplays.com/site/1707497#windstorm-fooferton-su-122-44 I had a question about the CDC, is it like a more accurate FCM? I'm starting to get the hang of the latter and I think one of those with better gun handling would be great.

It's got worse turret bloom (0,16 instead of 0,12) which probably outweighs the marginally improved base acc and aim time

The upside is vastly improved ufp and turret armor and passability meaning you are faster than an is-6 over most terrain. If you ever get a chance to facehug an is-6 in a 112 you won't take a point of damage.

If you're just dueling an IS-6 sure, but you can't do enough damage in a game to matter. Facehugging just means you'll get shot in the side. The IS-6 is a great bully because it bouncy armour all-around. The 112 can't bully hard. Also I would just shoot the little cupola, and I'm pretty sure I have before.

You won because you controlled the map, and your players wanted to have fun. Abbey rush seems like fun, and people who actually have fun with the game rather than hide in a corner are generally better and win more.

Old game, but sand river assault with no arty can be a fun 10 minutes of plinking shells off tanks. Also just had this game. M6 still my favourite tier 6 heavy, it can hold its own in t8 games as long as people leave you alone. kemikalkadet fucked around with this message at 00:35 on Mar 15, 2015 |

There's no reason to allow someone with 12 thousand battles and a 48% winrate to continue playing. Oh also he threw a match intentionally which also should be bannable.

Axetrain posted:Thats what makes them the easiest targets to troll. Some vet was going on about his "service" and told him the standard spiel about being a welfare queen/bullet sponge/school dropout and he asked me if I have ever served and I told him I served his mother last night. He absolutely wentoff in chat for the rest of the game about how horrible this disrespect is and I should walk into a recruiters office to "man" up. I was in the military and I know from experience how very thin skinned alot of them are. The most supremely moto guy I ever met was a quartermaster, because he tried for infantry and couldn't get in due to colourblindness. You'd think he was SF from the way he talked and acted. People who prance around thinking their poo poo doesn't stink just because they were in the military are loving insufferable and I have to wonder what exactly it was they did, or how long they were in, for them to be so desperate for approval.

I got all of two seconds on test before torrentgeddon, but some immediate impressions: the AMX has wonderful mobility, the new HD models are pretty nice but some of them don't play nice with camo, and the new chat font/size is awful. More pressing, what the gently caress did they nerf medium guns for? I get that power creep is an issue, and mediums have some pretty great guns at tier 10, but by nerfing silver pen all they are doing is encouraging gold-slinging from most of them and utterly loving over the British mediums. This after they already hosed the Cent once by nerfing its turret, too. Unbelievable. Heavy drivers are by far the worst scum in the game. Of all the idiots that play WoT, heavy drivers stand out in the stupidity stakes by an order of magnitude. Battleship players are exactly the same in boats. They're both the easiest classes to play and require little other than a pulse and a functional mouse. Obviously they do require some skill to be good in, but the bar is much much lower and it shows. All the loving shitters piss and moan about how everything except their precious heavy tank is unfair/OP until everything else gets nerfed, same with BB drivers and the endless torp whining. gently caress heavy drivers. I hope WG nerf the poo poo out of them next patch just to spite them (but of course they won't, because the very biggest whales are 44% E 100 drivers).

~190k for the AMX 30P. Bring another 35k free exp if you don't have the SA47 unlocked because the stock gun is the F3.rossmum posted:More pressing, what the gently caress did they nerf medium guns for?

Outside of gold slinging my guess is its to get medium drivers to flank cause IMO they didn't have much trouble aiming weakspots when playing the terrain or peek-a-boo game (e.g STB on Prok middle or hill). Though I haven't touched the game since around October last year.

If they wanted medium tanks to flank then they wouldn't make all maps 3 lane dota maps.

Can't flank when the maps are all corridors.

Hellsau, I want to say thank you for recommending the comedy 37mm autocannon on the MT-25. When it works, its so incredibly satisfying to just grind some poor idiot to dust. Really burns through the money though firing APCR out of it though.
