soulfucker is confirmed being a huge baby. muting people on ts is babbiest of babby moves. also, its really weird that 2pac had a huge influx of new goons the moment i took a break from tanks. its a really weird coincidence imho

If you havent already, check out this site: http://tanks.gg/en/wot/e-100#tab:model.s:1 Click on the live tab at the bottom of the picture to see how angels change armor thickness, ignore the color scheme as I think it assumes you are shooting with the same gun as the tank you have selected. Cool thing we can glean from this:  IS7 armor layout allows you to hit the rear drive wheel from a slightly angled front IS7 (only 120 mm of actual protection). Also, a cool thing: http://wotreplays.com/site/1829906#himmelsdorf-johngaltcobracommander-type_64 WG, in all of its glory, has bugged the e100 armor layout so that the turret ring has a hard 0 actual armor on the very top of it (I think). It isnt practical to try to shoot for in an actual game but it is kinda funny (the following game I was able to pen it with a T1 cunningham). Finishing with a replay of a fat girl who really likes my fine french rear end: http://wotreplays.com/site/1829909#westfield-johngaltcobracommander-bat_-ch_tillon_25_t

I. Love. My. Patton. Reason Why-> http://wotreplays.com/site/1699688 Arty managed to reset the base from a full 100, giving me just enough time to duel against an E-100 and VK72.01K in the cap and secure the base. Had a little moment of indecision while the Jg.Pz.100 was roaming around afterwards, but it worked out in the end.   That E-100 was something special. I felt kind of bad for the VK72.01K and Jg.Pz.100 players. Been having pretty solid results with the tank I've gotten it. Looking to work towards the E-50M now and see how that pans out for me.

So I got my USA Expert medal the other day and now I'm curious, is there anyway that you can see which tank's you're missing from each of the experts? I know the WOT Assistant can tell you which tanks you've killed in whatever tank so the information is there but I was wondering if there was a site that could extract it.

R. Mute posted:I honestly can't remember what playing the SU-85 was like, but going off of my stats, it seems like it's a perfectly fine tank. It's basically a good preview of the SU-100 and the 122 mm SU-152. If you're in a Soviet anything, but especially TDs, you're going to have to accept their limitations - no turrets and terrible viewranges. The only thing I remember the SU line bugging me with, was that a lot of them had really lovely gun depression IIRC, which led to me having to nose down a hill to shoot enemies, and then I'd get hit in the top of my open cab and pop, dead.. So I learned to stay farther back. It's pretty good for running and gunning as well, very like a Stug in that regard.

http://worldoftanks.com/en/news/pc-browser/22/on-track-to-268-2015/ New on track event came at a good time. I've just unlocked the ISU-152 and have been in the process of grinding credits. With the discount I should be able to pick it up pretty soon. Is it worth free-XPing to the BL-10 immediately (I should have just enough to cover it) or will the 122mm gun from the SU-152 work well enough to not be so painful to grind? edit: Will the BL-10 mount without upgraded suspension?

Man, gently caress the last On Track mission. There are now packs of Bishops and FV304s prowling around mid-tier battles, raining down shells rapid-fire on anything that has the tiniest amount of of its track, or gun, or rear end exposed. Also gently caress American arty in general, when did it become cool to play that poo poo again?

I have a hard time hitting things with my M41, dunno why. Also I'm sad I moved to the FV304, should have stuck to the bishop. The 304's gun is just too underpowered for the higher tier matches and its frustrating pelting some T8 for 100 damage a shot.

BadLlama posted:Wasn't/Isn't the tier 9 American arty actually better than its tier 10 or something? Let me answer your artillery queries. I've played all the tier X arties outside of the the Bat Chat (Juffo Wup loves that one.) The GWE100 is a strong tier X, Good arc, bad traverse, nice damage, nice splash. Hope you never get spotted, as you can't move. The T92 is also strongk, sorta good arc, sorta good traverse. Huge damage, and splash. Also slow. The CGC is nice, good arc (not like the 304, though) big damage, splash, but lovely accuracy. This is an add-on arty, not one to push for, imo. Slow as molasses in January. The 261 has mediocre dmg for a X arty, with a tiny traverse, but is unforgivingly accurate, with a 30s reload. You can get away with AP in this, though after many long battles, I don't prefer it. Speedy enough, with a proper crew you can out-fox many teams. The Lorraine 155-51 shares the same gun as the Tier X French. If you like low-alpha strikes. with fast reloads (well after your clip loads for the 58,) at tier X, this is your arty. Fast as poo poo. You're on the other side of the map before the red team can spell "GG." Saves you from repair costs in that manner. But let me make this clear. The M55 has arc, traverse, speed, big damage, big splash and is the best arty in the game. Also, you might see tier IX games in it. [e]: I really feel for people grinding arty these days. It's a horrible grind. The M55 should be your first, I think (but I'm no expert,) then branch out. The Southern Dandy fucked around with this message at 19:54 on Apr 27, 2015 |

I just want a higher tier arty for Missions. With spotting mechanics the way they are and the lack of good scout maps, the Light Tank missions are a royal pain in the rear end so I'm trying to avoid them.

I've been playing the British artillery lately, I'm up to the Bishop. The only thing that has made the experience seem even vaguely fun is simultaneously going through the grind towards the ELC and the Cromwell, and having to drive the loving M7. gently caress the M7. How anyone new persists with this game long enough to get out of the first four tiers is beyond me.
