Yeah the premium T-28/85mm has like 3.2 second aim time and significantly worse track bloom than the tech tree T-28, it just seems clunky as hell. The T-28's weird speed and mobility was one of the things that made the enormous size and lack of armor bearable, and that's lessened in the premium as well. Edit: Is the Skoda T-40 premium any good, or at least adequate? I own a Schmalturm which I do not particularly enjoy due to the horrible mobility. I think I actually own every tier6 premium except the T-40 and the Japanese Tiger  I enjoy tier6 a lot, in general. Psykmoe fucked around with this message at 16:21 on Dec 1, 2015 |

Bought Now I'll play it in January when I'm done with Tomb Raider and Fallout. Unless PANSY finally decides to log on to WOT for a change. Honestly I love buying all of these premiums. It just makes me sad that there are certain tanks that I have no chance of ever obtaining - not even the ones like the M60 or IS5, I mean the weird-rear end tanks like the Clownshie or the Hydro or the V/VI - OR MY loving SHERMAN BETA YOU WORTHLESS PIECES OF poo poo IN MINSK "no record of that account" indeed. For whatever reason I didn't log in during the time they were giving away the Te-Ke, and that kind of chafes. KaiserSchnitzel fucked around with this message at 16:26 on Dec 1, 2015 |

I got the Pz IV Hydro, whenever I play it, someone always asks about the weird hatchback. Its mobility ain't great, it has worse hull armor than the Ausf. H so every poo poo gun pens you frontally, but on the upside, it has a rear transmission so at least all those frontal pens don't blow out your engine  Also takes longer to reload than the current Ausf. H.But it has pref MM so I can always show it off in a Churchill III platoon or whatever

Terrorist Fistbump posted:Correct. But their BIA is compatible with regular BiA which isn't true of Sisterhood of Steel afaik. Sisterhood of steel doesn't work with normal bia. I haven't done it but the most efficient use of them would be splitting them up and using them as commanders, drivers, and maybe gunners and using regular pleb crew members in the remaining roles. In the long term this does make these Berlin crews arguably better than the girl crews but most crews don't get that much training.

It's called TerraForMars and its about people being shot into space to go back to mars after it got terraformed by ugly cockroachman (I think they might have mutated or something its all very unclear) but its like theyre very offensivly "urban" looking but thats Ok...because Japan. My point is we have to overcome the bugmen from mars as united goonhood lets not fight eachother but try to fuse our genes with super cool spiderbugmagic power genes...then we can launch into space and fight the evil "urban" cockroachfolk from mars and claim it for SA. I also really like the churchill III because it goes relatively not fast but counters this by shooting rather quite not slow. I miss a tank like this in armored warfare...in armored warfare you end up either going fast but shooting slow or going slow and shooting slow. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother with another Tank game but then I realise if you want to fight spaceurbancockroachoffensivestereotypemenfrommarsinspace you have to know misery you have to dehumanize yourself and face the bloodshed..you have to become the bearer of pain and suffering only then can you truely achieve the ultimate tank form..you can become the tank.

Important gameplay question: I'm at work and wondering whether or not the x3 event is still going on. In many ways x3 sucks, because I feel the need to play every tank I'm grinding, regardless of whether or not it's fun.

I've gotten my way up to the Tier V SPG on the Soviet tier (SU-122A), with the upgraded howitzer. It does a shitton of damage, but the long reload time makes it a little bit unforgiving--I've gone a couple rounds now where I'm not really able to hit anything at all. A lot of the time I end up in a position where my team has enemies spotted within my range, but some intermediate obstacle is keeping me from getting a clear shot. Is this a matter of knowing the map better and setting up so that I can point my reticule at choke points? Other times I'll have a clear shot at someone, but they'll move away/into cover by the time I finish aiming and the shot completes its travel time. I like being able to severely screw up TOGs and other huge heavies, but those seem to be the only things that I can hit reliably. How can I SPG better with this thing?

By going through the KV-2. The SEA shop is rebelling and selling the t-34-85 M for its first advent day instead of the T-28 premium. The Rudy is still on sale from last month for another few days. Why even bother putting the t-34-85M in the store.

Bleremiah posted:I didn't realise the T-28 had ever lost a gun, check out the little peashooters it's left with. Glad I went up the line before it was removed. The 57mm Zis-4 is a perfectly fine gun even on the higher tier T-34, the T-28 is just a pretty horrendous platform for it because it's neither very good at soaking damage while machinegunning, nor particularly stealthy, its camo is bad and it has mediocre gun depression. The Churchill III or KV-1/57 option can really take a beating and the T-34 at least has some modicum of camo, isn't the size of a train car and has some gun depression. It also doesn't get oneshot by 105mm derps every time. They're decent platforms for a decent gun Also, the premium T-28E/85mm is a slow turd compared to the unrealistically zippy tech tree version. It probably takes longer to aim in that 85mm than it takes the other guy to aim in a 105mm HE shell with the awful aimtime and soft stats too

Welp, I caved in and updated the game. I hope I can trick Emy into playing again too, we were a great tier6 team. I don't suppose srb is still around somewhere? So what's with these Proving Ground and Rampage mode things anyway? Edit: Nevermind, I don't have tier10s to do Rampage anyway Psykmoe fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Dec 2, 2015 |

I can't see the T-28E/85mm as being particularly pleasant to play. In any case, it will be significantly worse than the old tech tree T-28/85mm was. It's slow (35kph compared to 45kph on tech tree), it weights TWICE as much as the tech tree version on the same engine, it has greater track bloom and its aim time is also awful. You get 160 alpha with solid pen out of the deal, which is going to two-shot most tier4s on good damage rolls and isn't incompetent when tiered up. But the T-28 is a huge target that gets full penned by HE so being slower and clunkier than the tech tree version is worse than you think. At least the alpha lets you limit exposure. The T-28 hull also generally has crap camo for a medium. You'll be fighting your own tank a lot to make use of the good gun. On the upside you get 10m extra view range and a little more armor, enough so that when you're top tank, 75mm derps probably won't wreck you  If you're literally just after the 85mm, the SU-85B reloads it 4 rpm faster

The T-28 premium is great. It only goes 35kmph, but it gets up to speed quickly, and the gun is really nice in #snapshotmeta. Don't try to aim fully because you're going to miss and it takes 5 seconds.Terrorist Fistbump posted:When the gently caress did the JT88 lose preferential matchmaking?? This is ludicrous!
