Can't seem to get OMC to work. I go for the whole re-configure option but keeps coming up with "These WoT versions is not supported by the OMC Modpack". I'm assuming everyone is having success installing the individual mods rather than being lazy like me and running the installer.

Bought the CDC and played one round before I remembered that I hadn't updated any mods for 9.7. Holy gently caress, I'd forgotten how bad this game is unmodded. Down to the random camera shake just to throw off your aim (with mods I remove the camera shake but leave on dynamic camera for the stabilization) and the complete lack of the ability to disable scrolling between first and third person - is one loving checkbox really that hard WG? The game actively works against the player until you muzzle it with mods.

 Here's a link to a preliminary version of my modpack.It mostly works, but some known issues are J1mb0's crosshair is currently bugged and won't track the number of shells autoloaders have in their clips, and Locastan hasn't updated his session stats for 9.7 yet. If those issues get fixed I'll put out a new version. You need to install these fonts too. McGavin fucked around with this message at 07:19 on Apr 24, 2015 |

RanKizama posted:Everytime I come across [CIA] in their T-127's I see like one good player (Blue/Purple) and two bad players (Orange/Red) so I've never had a problem with them. Then again, I always pack like 12 APCR rounds in my Pz38(t) with three crew skills so....yeah... Check their tank stats though; all of their "good" stats come from the T-127 and they're poo poo in every other tank. Wrecking those retards is especially satisfying.  Blindeye posted:Thanks! I didn't realize until I saw my stats how much better I have done in the t-46 's the American mediums (60% wins vs 45%). I think for that reason I'll keep the t-46 and t-28 because they are pretty fun, but I am getting rid of my T2/M2 the second I can because they're rubbish tanks, though the M2 "shines" in maps with lots of cover against lighter armor as I now realize. The T-46 and M2 MT are worth keeping (I have both) but the other tanks you mentioned are mediocre. There are keeper tanks at every tier; when we eventually meet up in-game or on TS I'll go over them in more detail. RanKizama posted:I have a legitimate issue with the new Tier 1-3 anti-clubbing feature. I'm all for cutting down on seal-clubbing, but the last German tank in the game that I have to kill is the Tier II Pz.I. That tank is already goddamn impossible to come across and no experienced player is ever going to drive it. What the hell am I gonna do now to get my Kill-All-Krauts medal? I have one, it's not terrible when you realize it gets super-pref MM (only sees tier 2 max.) There are a few other super-pref 2s, but the simple thing would be to just count-in with someone in that tank until you get the on the other team. BadLlama posted:Really the only mod I hate to play without is my view range circle mod and my sixth sense Fry face. Sixth Sense Boobs are better.  Babe Magnet posted:uh actually, he's super good at this game and it's all his team's fault that he keeps getting owned, why else would he be yelling at the top of his lungs at 11 pm in the evening at his teammates and constantly pointing out everything they do wrong??? Out of curiosity, could you share his IGN with us?

So the AMX 45 using the 105 firing nothing but premium ammo and abusing the 10 degrees of gun depression is actually quite good. Getting high roll damages of 400+ seems to surprise almost everyone.

I wish they would have other tiers besides 6,8 and 10. A lot of my favorite vehicles are tier 7 & 9.

Is it just me or are the lower tier games hard to come by in the new system. My T-46 has been bottom-rung in tier 5 games all day long today, and my T-28 learning curve is a bit...tougher when it's all tier 6 games.... On the plus side I'm starting to get the hang of using the M2 derp gun  . At the very least I can cripple big tanks to slip away or make an easy shot for another tank.

Tier 3 and 4 get shafted worse than anyone else by MM (also, I think the matchmaker has been a bit hosed since 9.7 came out).

I didn't get that error from OMC when I reinstalled after 9.7 (and I re-downloaded OMC from their website) but I did crash repeatedly in every battle until I deleted my 0.9.7 mods folder, so I'd say it's definitely borked.

Must have been a dozen times a game where I looked down at the minimap only to curse WG because I couldn't tell who was where and how far they were vs me and how close to draw distance they were.

The amount of people I see whining when they have 100 damage and 0 kills that the team isn't carrying them is staggering today  And also people who have retarded winrate% mods enabled and drown themselves/suicide at the start of the round because "well we were going to lose anyway". Ugh

I'm really appreciating the SU-152 now that I'm using the 122mm. Just churning out damage which is frankly unfair in tier 7 matches. I just had a match with three top tier 7s. I didn't even need my team-mates as anything other than meatshields.

I'm simply not grognardy enough to know intrinsically the view range of each tank and how that would visually appear on my mini map without extensive mods. Further, playing this game without a gunsight zoom is frankly horrendous. Ah well, a forced week off tanks can't be a bad thing.

So after months off, I hopped into a game, clicked a bunch of tanks before I died to a mistake I acknowledge was my fault and am not angry about and watched as our tag team of tanks managed the endgame perfectly to take us to a nice win. I'm not going to press my luck.

The SU85 is awful. I honestly think it might be one of the worst tier 5s. Its view range and HP combo makes it nearly impossible to do anything on your own.

So I was thinking of buying the T-54 proto just to train my crew. Looking at it in Tank Inspector, it seems to be a much slower, slightly better armored T-44. In other words, a useless piece of poo poo. Can anyone confirm/deny?

Azhais posted:The Pz Sfl IVc would like a word 60 meters more view range with two 88s that both have much better alpha, aim time, and pen with similar if not better DPM. Depending on traverse the short 88 at tier 5 seems fairly crazy. Edit: Active binocs on the 85 hits 350 view range. Which is barely enough to make up the difference...never mind Binos on the toaster.

I wouldn't compare it to the T-44 since that's practically a light tank while the T-54P thinks it's a heavy (it's not; you can tell from how it has a gun that's two tiers old). The easiest way to handle Russian crew training is to just run a new set through the Churchill until they've got sixth sense.
