Speaking of the 2801- spotted Tazilon recently. Up to 42k games in that thing. I wonder how many human heads he has in his freezer? In other news, finally finished TD-15 for the 28-  Yes, that is a steel wall. In a WTF-100. Had a full health ST-1 chasing me while I was reloading and he bounced several shots off of me (as did a 71 earlier). Finished loading and executed him to get over 5k damage. Pubbies are the worst. e- forgot to add that I was accused of cheating all game long after I murdered a T-54. I tracked him right before he became unspotted and apparently I am a cheater because I shot him twice after that.

Autoloaders force me to not play like an idiot. I've noticed that I consistently do good damage with them, because I have to spend time at the beginning NOT sprinting to the frontlines, and then spend time between clip loads re-assessing the fight, instead of getting tunnel vision. ...that said, I get tunnel vision like a MOTHERFUCKER while I have that clip loaded.

I've no idea what I've done to displease the WoT god apart from not being Premium but I just can't win a loving game over the past 3 days. I was doing ok at 52% fora bit now I'm struggling to get 30%. I just had a run of 6 losses all as bottom tier in a row. Edit: make that 7, whole team went valley on Mountain pass leaving me to defend the other side solo, got cap fasted whilst they had plenty of time to get back to base.

Didn't help that the matchmaker kept shafting us for heavy tanks as well. In the end we resorted to playing Tank Pokemon in our Mk. VI Cs. That thing is hilarious with binos, vents and a GLD. I'm looking forward to getting Smooth Ride and Snap Shots on it. Lovely Joe Stalin fucked around with this message at 23:51 on Mar 23, 2015 |

Been trying to mop up the last of the T28 missions so I can fully crew my new E100 with tank ladies. Got a tier 5 match on Abbey in my M4, perfect for hunting TDs (I need to kill three). There are 4 on the other team, and one dies right away. I kill a couple of mediums, find another TD, kill that. Pump a couple of shots into the Churchill, sneak around the side of their base, and kill their best player in his SA 35. 1 Hetzer to go, and everyone is converging on base to do unspeakable things to my rectum. Hetzer crests and pops me once, leaving me with under 100 HP. I blap him for my 3rd TD kill. We are up 12-6 at this point, and my shitlord teammates are shambling forward like idiot zombies to finish them off. A 44% Matilda has been chasing me around for most of 5 minutes, and now has me cornered behind a rock. He finally kills me, but I got the mission! Or not. Go back to garage, and don't see the reward flashing. Go in to the mission and cancel it, only to discover that I had already done this once, and was just trying to improve my results by surviving and winning. gently caress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

M10/Panther, FCM 36 Pak 40 and TOG II* (perhaps S35 739 (F) too) to be removed from the store real soon, so snap up the ones you want! (FCM is the only actual "good" one, in case you were wondering).

FCM is as good one to play with your noob friends who are just starting. They will be amazed at your steady diet of top guns. That thing is absolutely unfair at top tier.

Got a FCM, it's not that OP seeing how slow and immobile it is, which balances it out a bit except on Province. Why would they get rid of the TOG? Not that it's a good tank or anything.

Not that it's a good tank or anything. I assume they're doing away with the pref matchmaking oddities like the Warcrime and the TOG which basically don't platoon with anything else besides tanks that aren't available even in the premium shop. The FCM has to go - they nerfed TD view ranges but for whatever reason they refuse to nerf premium tanks, so they probably cannot just sell a 400 meter view range tier 3 TD. And the FCM is brutally overpowered specifically on the maps that tier 3s see. On Malinovka, Province, or Prok, the insane view range advantage just causes games to go bananas, especially now that the other TDs cannot outspot you even with binocs. Sure if you get a tier 5 match on like Westfield or Redshire, you do nothing, but that's the price you pay to crush tier 3 matches. If the FCM got pref matchmaking, it would be the most overpowered vehicle. A platoon of them would probably break 80% winrate.

I got a new invite card/code thing with some merch a few months ago, and it turns out it's apparently only for EU and not NA like it clearly says. Nice job, Wargaming!  And Wargaming support is being their typically useless selves regarding the issue, although I am awaiting their next response.Consequently, I may end up posting the code in the EU thread when this is all sorted out.  Prav posted:I'm retarded so I put WOT to autostart so I don't forget. I'm sure this won't drive me crazy over the next month and a half. What do you mean, you have it load when you boot Windows? I set a daily reminder in my calendar.  CitizenKain posted:I'm starting to kinda have fun in the Awful Panther, what is going on. As a scout tank its objectively pretty terrible, its huge, has large flat sides and limited camo. As a harassing light tank though, its pretty good. I just wish I had 6th sense on it, but its a been a good opportunity to be more cautious. I actually had a great game in the SomethingawfulPanther the last time I played it. It was on Himmelsdorf of all maps, tier 10 match, and I think I got top XP and survived. It may have been an Ace game as well; I'll dig up the replay and share it. Nordick posted:I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that there's currently a bug with HE ammo, where if they hit tracks or spaced armor they can glitch out and kill the whole crew. Wow, really? BRB, loading all my tanks with 100% HE. Nordick posted:A caveat for new people though: The Pz I C is a very polarized tank, in that it will absolutely shred the poo poo out of things on its own tier, but will be completely impotent against many things above that because of it's low pen. But get one anyway, because at its best it's ridiculous fun. This is why when we do a Pz1C platoon I bring something with good pen, like the Chi-Ha. Consequently, this is why I have an 85% winrate in my Chi-Ha. BadLlama posted:I can't achieve climax unless I dump the whole clip all at once and that is what is important.

Define "better." I'm reading a book right now about the Soviet Gulag system, and people would occasionally nail their testicles to a bench to get out of working - it was rarely successful as a ploy. Well, the game is "better" than that.

Full list of discontinued tanks is: Panther/M10, German Tier VII Medium Tank; TOG II*, British Tier VI Heavy Tank; T14, American Tier V Heavy Tank; FCM 36 Pak 40, French Tier III Tank Destroyer. All available as a bundle with slots and a month of premium for only £32.99 until 20/4. Hellsau posted:for whatever reason they refuse to nerf premium tanks, so they probably cannot just sell a 400 meter view range tier 3 TD. EU consumer protection law.
