RanKizama posted:Battle took place on only 1/4 of the whole map. There was one corner and that was about it unless you went into the south road which was kind of a coin flip. The hills were pretty much untraversable and as such a lot of the map was wasted. I'd like to see it (and Port) come back, but it'd need some serious work to make better use of the map as a whole. So much wrong in this post. Dragon Ridge was easily one of the most dynamic maps out and there were so many routes to flank everywhere. Only bads stuck to clumping together in the same spots over and over.

primelaw posted:We do a lot of strongholds but I'm not letting you in because you'll kill it In my defense it's actually inactive leadership and allowing poor play to be rewarded that kills clans, since as one player in a clan you cannot exactly kill it without having a very high amount of authority. EvilVader killed PURPL by doing something very stupid. MacDiesel killed CRABS by being hilariously dumb. VOLT ate itself due to terrible players being terrible. PINGU seriously has had zero officers on in a week and was bleeding players due to awful players sabotaging us during campaign matches and still being put into future battles, which kind of killed any possible morale. Oh also I don't actually want to do clan wars because it's boring and stressful for nearly zero rewards since if I need gold I can just do a tournament.

IS and IS2 > Tiger. Your sorry fascist box tank cannot meet the glorious fist of Stalin and the energetic pace his engines provide. Poorly designed box tanks sit in the rubbish bin of history. Comet is overrated.

Tiger is a better tank overall in WoT but the IS is more fun. They used to be more or less balanced (perhaps slightly biased towards the Tiger) but the  buffs gave the Tiger a clear margin.This does not necessarily hold true for the Chinese IS (which I have not played) or the Berlin IS-2 (which doesn't count, because like the Bromwell and Rudy it is way better than it has any business being).

The Tiger is a really good tank, I would almost say it even gives the T29 a run for it's money. It's more a finesse tank though so you kinda have to know what your doing, also the current meta in this game doesn't favor dpm snipers like it used to.

Join JIMBO, we're already well on our way to create another LIMBO/AWFUL schism in the Mafia and alienate ourselves. It would be a nice easy kill that would get you back on an aggressive pace at clan destruction.

I came back just in time to buy the 4-tank Berlin bundle, and it was totally worth it. I wasn't doing too hot in the IS-2 until last weekend when I had a really nice game on Winterberg (and lost). I was top tier, got 4 kills and around 4k damage, and ultimately ended up dying to a T29 that I couldn't get around. He was actually smart enough to keep his hull hidden pretty much all game, and by the time we faced off, there were no pubbies left on my team to distract him. On a related note, I can't wait to get into the M6 and then the T29 and just bully the hell out of people.

RanKizama posted:I can play both the Comet and Dragon's Ridge (well, not DR anymore) but that doesn't make them good. I just want the drat Centurion already. They make themselves good, it's you who makes them bad. Please stop wearing your incompetence like a badge of honor. DR was removed from the game because pubbies only knew how to go straight up and down the 9 and 0 lines. Since WG balances around the average instead of the competent there wasn't much that could be done even when it was a blast to use the other 4/5 of the map and, if nothing else, get a ton of free side shots. Lol though, if you think the comet is slow or unarmoured, the Cent is a great tank but it's slower and has a turret that is barely more reliable.

The comet is one of the high points of the line. The only low points in the line is the covenanter, which cannot handle tier 6 tanks, and the 4202 which is the lowest pen t10, by a significant margin, due to the lack of a heat round and can't pen things other t10s can. Like I get that you're not good at it, but if you can't adapt to the slightly slower speed of compared to the Cromwell when you're also getting amazing gun handling, a good mantlet, and great depression out of the deal, you're going to have a hard time with tanks that magnify the same deficiencies, compared to the Cromwell. If you can't adapt to the slightest differences between tanks the problem isn't the tank. Trying to compare the comet to the GC is a bizarre non-sequitur. One is a tank with a below average (though at median) gun for its tier with everything else matching to significantly better than its peers, and one is a TD with a marginally better gun than its peers with no other upsides. I keep the Cromwell, comet, centurion 7, 4202, and even the cruiser IV (which is just unfair) and do well in all of them despite their differences. When good players post about the comet being good, it's not some kind of inside joke and you don't know something they don't.

I really don't understand the amerigoon hardon for the Comet. It's a thoroughly mediocre tank that in many ways is worse than the Cromwell. It has a lower top speed, lower HP/ton ratio and higher ground resistance so it's a lot more sluggish. What you gain in exchange is seventy-five (75) more DPM, a turret that very occasionally may bounce a thing, a few degrees of gun depression and gun handling that isn't the garbage the Cromwell has (still not super impressive, though). It plays sort of like the Easy Eight except one tier higher, which kinda sounds cool but it really isn't. All of the T7 mediums I've played so far have been pretty unimpressive (except the T20, which was pretty cool albeit hampered by its abysmal DPM) and the Comet really doesn't stand out in any way at all. I elited it, sold it and didn't buy the Centurion. Meanwhile I have a >70% win rate in the Cromwell B. TheFluff fucked around with this message at 16:15 on Jul 7, 2015 |

I love the covenanter, although you're right it's bad vs. higher tiers. If you can fight equal or lower tiers the thing shits out damage with its weird double-shot gun. I really hated the tank after it in the line (crusader?) and sold it out of frustration, but I was a lot worse at the game then so maybe I'd do better in it now.

RanKizama posted:That's a pretty good comparison I think. Granted, I thoroughly enjoyed my E8 and only sold it once I got the Fury to replace it. Yes, well, stats-wise it's very very close to the Easy Eight - it's only got marginally more DPM, the big difference is that it has a lot more pen. At one tier higher, though, it really isn't a favorable trade. I too enjoy the Fury a lot. Also, since we have cometchat now, what's next on the list of circulating topics? I want to be prepared.
