Exia00 posted:My job is complete. So I snapshot our M41 because they weren't even trying to scout on Prokhorovka. They then spent literally nine minutes blocking me. I didn't think to check their stats after that match, but boy they're some sort of weird combination of botter and whale:  They have all the tier 10s that these tier 9s lead to, except the AMX 30B. Good times. Also a good demonstrator that the missions take more luck than skill.

Bleremiah posted:Not so much in the way of bots, but occasionally. Thing is, there aren't multiple servers, just an NA West + added language barriers. There are just as many language barriers on NA East. South America (not Spanish speaking North America) is actually closer to the East Coast servers. So there is a huge population of Argentinians, Brazilians, and Chileans on NA East. Not to mention all the Québécois Francophones and the Eastern Europeans who like to troll the NA servers. quote:Half the time the stat padder platoons turn out to be just as worthless as the average player, and it really makes you question just how good some of the greens and blues are. I agree. I'd say 95% of the dark blues are way better than me; however, most of the green players aren't. Even with light blues I find myself often wondering "what the gently caress is that guy doing?" quote:Especially when I'm yellow. Last 1400 matches I've apparently been playing at a green level I'm yellow too with only a 47% winrate; however, I've been playing much better. I'm almost always playing at green or blue wn8, and lately have around a 52% winrate. and I make dumb loving decisions all the time. quote:I can only do so well because everyone else is consistently worse. I should platoon more Same. I almost never platoon. I really think that stats get artificially plunked in the cases of solo players. My theory is often treated with "carry more," but poo poo. There is only so much carrying a single player can do on a regular basis. It's a lot easier to carry when you are in a platoon of 3 not poo poo players quote:gently caress, I should probably start from scratch on the EU server, my KV220T and other irreplaceables be damned. Here is the thing, why do you care? I don't give a poo poo--so much so I will sometimes zero out my stats for a match by drowning myself if it looks too unfun. The only reason it really matters if you want to join a douche clan who cares what color you are; however, by your described play style it does not seem that would be your thing. Really having yellow stats is nice because you never get xvm sniped and the "good" players totally underestimate your skill, to your advantage. Plus, if you do care, you could just reroll on the same NA servers. Why take the ping hit unless your actually closer to the EU cluster.

The part that there are language barriers on NA East as there are on NA West because there a bunch of South Americans? The part where I agreed with the man that the colors coded stats don't work that well for solo players, or the part where I said it was stupid to re-roll if you don't need pretty stats for some reason? Or was it the prt where I said don't reroll on the EU server unless you're in the EU.

The guy you originally quoted, Bleremiah, is on the SEA server. He was saying that the SEA server is basically the shittiness of NA West with the added "fun" of having several different Asian and Pacific Islander languages, all wrapped up into one awful latency package. No one claimed that NA West has any more language issues than NA East. Post that .gif, Exia.

No, you don't, and I don't know why you'd say that, but I think I've found your problem:  Have you tried not alternating literally every tank in your garage as often as possible? One of the main contributors to my beginning of not being poo poo at the game and figuring out how to play tanks was the switch to exclusively playing only a few tanks at a time. If you're averaging around 70 matches per day, try to use that time more efficiently by picking out two or three tanks tops, possibly ones that handle similarly and then try to learn how to drive those three tanks as opposed to switching between FOURTY tanks over three days.

Funnily enough I had the opposite experience when I was starting to improve. Playing one tank a lot would end in me getting frustrated at incompetence (mine and others) but doing every single tank I owned (back when that was possible, I'd have to play more games a day than ZL to do that now) showed consistent improvements. On the other hand I think even at my worst I never averaged more than 70 games a day. Holy poo poo. e: Holy poo poo Zombielenin's stats. Is he getting Wargaming's personal rating thing confused with WN8? Someone ask him because I'm certain he has me blocked.

Well you definitely make stupid decisions, but if you were really playing at a "green or blue wn8" then you probably wouldn't do as blatantly stupid poo poo as driving your Lowe across the middle of the loving field on Malinovka when it's a 6v6 game that you could have won. If you had driven all the way south and crossed in, you know, the place smart players cross, you could have used all those bushes to keep from getting spotted instead of me artying you in the face because you didn't bother with camo. I made a picture for you because your PhD doesn't seem help you you with comprehending reality:

I rarely play more than 2-3 games in each tank per session. On the other hand, if I get more than 2 hours to play I am happy (or well as happy as you can be playing WoT). 70 games a day with an average time of 7 min per game equals roughly 8 hours. So what about that full-time job and wife? Also, for some reason all his stats are going down.

Yeah you would think but that never seems to matter. I have taken so many 5 month breaks from this game... only reason my battle count is so low. But if your better than someone and have less games than them you are automatically a reroll by their standards.
