Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?

loving useless team refusing to give me my 1500 spotting damage for LT-13 again. This is roughly the fifth time I breach 1,000 damage done and then EXCLUSIVELY try to spot, I've even given up on taking opportunities to tilt the round in our favor so I can just get this loving primary objective. This time, I thought I finally had my spotting damage for sure and then went on to do as much as I could to carry. Someone stole my kill of the 263 I caught off guard and then bullied in the butt to deny me my top gun.
Useless team.

is the 30b as good as the 30 prototype? I'm worried about being disappointed. the prototype is so loving good.

Played a few games in the 30b, it is good. I found that I am terrible at carrying the retards in it, but when I can sit back and do my business it is pretty amazing.

Kept the 30 because it is a loving monster at T9.

The Gamescom2015 EU specials are up:
15% off tier 8-10 tanks
15% off tier 8 premiums
30% off tier 6-7 premiums
x5 on the first victory

Earn 200k xp total and get a Dicker Max

Its one of the rare tier 10 price reductions, so if you have those purchases lined up, its a good time. The tier 8 premium price reduction is pretty rare as well.

12th straight battle without a team to breach 1,500 assisted damage for poo poo I spot.
This one was special. Last remaining enemy tank was a Jagdtiger. I wasn't entirely sure that I was the one that spotted him as there was one of our T71s about, so I aim carefully for his tracks, shoot and chip away 250 damage while tracking him.
"Oh well", I think, "solid scouting, 250 damage shouldn't break my back on this attempt."

Is it accurate to see the AMX 30 as better in its tier compared to the AMX 30B.
I see a lot of good players in the AMX 30 (gently caress you Salean for killing me and making me lose with a 5.7k damage game in the T110E4), and very few in the AMX 30B?

It is very accurate to say that.

T10 is where things get a little broken and crazy, where as T9 and below games tend to be easier. Less HP, less armor, less loving bullshit one shot tanks. They are essentially the same tank, the 30b has better overall gun stats and a nice size tumor. Still just as nimble (barely noticeable how little less nimble it is to the 30), just as stealthy, just as nasty when it starts to fire its gun.

So really the main reason it does "worse" for T10 is that it does not have the same MM as the 30. The 30's big positive is that it can see lower tiers far more than the 30b. Because they are essentially the same tank, the 30 will usually always have better stats.

That or I am just talking out of my rear end idk anymore with this game.

The amx 30 bounces shots that you don't expect it to, but generally it doesn't have armor.

Pretty much this, I can't imagine how they could make the 30B substantially better than the 30 without making it game breaking.

Okay, can any of you help me out? I've noticed something that's getting very irritating - tanks at a distance (400m+) moving in jerks and spasms. It's getting ridiculous. I was camping north cap circle on Ruinberg (don't ask) and was attempting to snipe a Chi-Ri peeking over the hill in the middle, but it was moving around in a weird manner. It looked like how players moved in Unreal Tournament when at 200+ ping, but I was at a stable 30-40 ping and the lag light wasn't turning on. Similarly, tanks moving in straight lines waaaay in the distance change speeds wildly, even when they're clearly just holding W going up a hill.

I've noticed this happening more often recently, but I'm not sure when it started. I do not recall tanks moving like this when I first started playing, or even a year and a bit ago when I got my fancy desktop and stopped playing on a Geforce 240. Is this the NA server loving up, Wargaming's netcode going to poo poo with 9.0, or what?

I have noticed this as well but just thought it may have been my connection. I have a brand new computer and I am not even running the game on super high settings just because it sometimes lags when there are explosions and poo poo anyway, so I dont think it would be any of my graphical settings.

There will be more events than just the tournament. They frequently run these big name tournies alongside major events just to get more people playing.

Speaking of - any of your goons who are actually good at tanks (like Camador or Primelaw) have a team for the anniversary tournaments? I actually show up and shoot tanks and listen to the caller, which is a major improvement over people who don't show up. I want a Type 59 to inflate the value of my account rub in Metro's face.

I probably won't even play it since I've played it on sockpuppet accounts to grind credits and it has been power creeped to death.

Yes you're dumb, don't do it, even the totally garbage tanks like the T1E6 aren't enough credits to bother. Just play three games to make the same credits, buy like thirty garage slots on sale for 4500 gold, and keep the lovely gift tanks around for when they give them out again.
