Sheeeeeit. I should have played the ARL with the 105. It even has the same aimtime as the 90mm which is...just stupid.

When playing the ARL and shooting gold do inform the gold whiners that you fire the gold not for the pen but for the increased damage. They will lose their poo poo about how gold doesn't increase damage not knowing that the french 105 is magically special for some reason.

So they're shutting the Sandbox down. Apparently they've gotten enough data, and think they're ready to bring in tier 8 and 9 tanks! Even though there are tier 10 tanks on the Sandbox that other tier 10 tanks cannot reasonably fight against, they're ready to bring in tier 8 and 9 tanks that sure as gently caress can't deal with them. Also, this Phase 2 is planned for mid-autumn. I'm pretty sure Cyprus has the same seasons as the USA, so that's what, October? Christ. What a loving mess.

All I got out of the sandbox was that the T57 Heavy is going to murder everything. I think they changed things 2-3 times since those few games, but man, that thing was unstoppable. Especially with E-100's not having the super HEAT shell. Tier 8 and 9 tanks are going to have a pretty rough time though.

Had a match in the Jagdpanther that turned out better than it had any right to.   We got rushed at the beginning of the match, so at first I went "welp, it's gonna be one of those matches" and resigned myself to being killed, but wanted to do as much damage as I could first. Then it turns out I didn't die. Not sure why they didn't keep shooting where I was, but hey. Also, I shouldn't have fired through the brushes when I could see through them, but, again, hey.

That's pretty much why I quit LoL for this years ago. Even the goon community in LoL is toxic, and you have to spend 40 minutes to an hour in each game, which even if you win only gets you 1% to most characters. I actually have DotA 2 that Bogon gifted me back in '13, but gently caress that.

Tried out both the 76mm and the 57mm on the A-43, and I think I might stick with the 57mm. The handling on the 76mm is as improved as someone said in this thread, and the difference in dpm isn't as egregious as it is on the T-34, but the 57mm has 189mm pen, something around 35mm more or so than the 76mm's premium round has. It's a lot more expensive due to the higher rate of fire, but I'd rather have 189 pen in close higher-tier matches.

You can see how the 76mm would be an adequate tier six, and using gold on the 57mm turns it into something special (if expensive) and very few tanks in this game actually get two viable loadouts like that.

With the 57 it basically ends up as a MT-25 that doesn't see 9s. Good times.

Earlier, I run into a Cromwell from some furry clan, so I drop a casual jab in chat, nothing egregious. As I drive up to him, I see the following:  Why yes, that is the 3.7 inch howitzer. After going up in flames with roundabout 3k damage, I casually inform him that he should probably go with the 75mm. As a response, he invites me to platoon. For shits 'n giggles, I accept, he readies up his Cromwell again. PresidentGingrich (6:32:13 PM) you're serious about that gun choice, aren't you? NateDuttonMC (6:32:20 PM) yis NateDuttonMC (6:32:31 PM) anti arty and scout cannon NateDuttonMC (6:32:51 PM) its so fun to delete ELC's PresidentGingrich (6:33:04 PM) ...and be useless against literally everything else?

You're a treasure PresidentGingrich (6:39:08 PM) Let's play a match, I'll bring my cromwell We play a match, run into a suicidal Leopard and PzIV which he both manages to do reasonable damage against.  Fortunately, the next match was a posterchild for my point. He whiffed shots off basically everything, and I convinced him to try the 75mm. So we play four more matches, win all but one, and he manages to climb up to about 700 damage per game. We even ran into some other furry pubbie clanmate of his and they happily O7'ed away  Suffer not the incapability of the pubbie. Turn it.

Hello friend, it seems you're using the incorrect video game gun. I'll be recording this chat for a hearty guffaw with my internet friends on my internet forums. Mayhaps a 1v1 is in order? As the lowlings of your caste oft say: pwned, ho ho

 Did you even read the entirety of my post before sperging out and deciding furiously who you dutifully have to make fun of in an internet forum over an internet tanks game? He PLATOONED with me, dude, and I gave him tips. We then played several matches and he realized he could be more effective with the 75mm. Maybe actually read posts before diving on them with some righteous  -fury /edit: And if someone claiming superiority of 4000 dpm on a Cromwell derpgun isn't funny to you, I don't know what to tell you Duzzy Funlop fucked around with this message at 04:26 on Jul 23, 2016 |

What's up mah dudes. Just a preliminary TD review from your favorite tank reviewer. I got the Charioteer and got every module except the 105. Currently rockin the b-barrel, which I love on the other brit tanks. Heard good things about it, such as the positive Quickybaby review (although he likes any british shitbox). Well I think this TD kind of blows. The mobility is great, but the bloom+aim time ruins any shoot and scoot. Also mobility and no armor is supposed to pair well with good gun depression. But the charioteer has russian medium gun depression (-5)...and it has no turret armor so good loving luck. There is no reason to play the charioteer when the centurion exists which has double the gun depression(-10) and has a sloped turret.

No, I just haven't ground the 55k necessary to get the 105 yet. Either way it'll have the same exact gun handling stats except it'll have even worse aim time. It will still have its terrible gun depression, dispersion, aim time, armor etc. It's just not my style. Also how can you hate on the b-barrel? It's the master of track-to-death and very satisfying when doing so. Really enjoyed the Caern and Cent 7/1 with the b-barrel. But on those tanks they have much better aim time and dispersion than the charioteer. Maybe I just have a different taste in tanks, but poo poo gun depression+poo poo armor+poo poo armor angles=poo poo tank for me. But my favorite medium is the Cent AX so whatever. It's not autist min/max clan wars ready, but it looks rad and is really fun to play.

To be fair, Ramsus is correct even once he gets the top gun - there's no reason to play the Charioteer when the Conqueror and FV215B exist. They get the same gun and also have much more HP and also have either incredibly good armor on the Conq, or workable armor on the 215B. Why would anyone choose to play the Charioteer, it doesn't make sense. Plus the 215b doesn't even need to grind to get its top gun!

^doesn't even need to grind hahahahaha i get it, post your last 10 consecutive charioteer games Plus loving forget snap shotting in the charioteer. Every goddamn shot WILL go to the outside of your reticle. Post replays to prove otherwise if you're a naysayer. Good luck with that horrendous stop and wait for 3 seconds to aim with no gun depression and armor when the current meta is one team is horribly unbalanced so you either have to move forward and shoot on the move to keep up with the killing or camp good with armor and gun depression.
