The KV-2 troll cannon on a the SU-152 is a pretty good time. And the addition of HEAT rounds made of the finest schadenfreude make up for it being so drat slow. ...with the engine upgraded. Nothing makes up for that stock engine. I might actually be on playing badly sometime soon. Needed a breather from the misery simulator.

Don't play the SU-152 with the derp gun. Use the 122mm and just feast on your opponents. Best thing about it is that people expect you to be using the derp gun so they often don't bother popping back into cover if you've missed your first shot. And you've got a 3300dpm gun. Well...

So whats with that old idea of making sixth sense an automatic perk for the radio operator so that you dont need to level it up on your commander? Did they end up implementing that, or did they push it off to the far future/forget about it?

Its DPM is off the charts though.  I post this every time the berlin quartet goes on sale but if you don't have a rudy you're missing out on what is probably the best medium tank for its tier in this entire loving game. peep that loving winrate after ~250 battles (my overall winrate: 58%) Prav posted:that's a long gun. kinda ugly turret though No idea why the turret models are so boxy and blocky.

The SU-152 running either the 122 or the 152 was some of the most fun I had in a tank, but its one of the few tanks I played where I could never drag that winrate above 50%. Best game I had in it was on mines in a tier 7 match. I'm on the north side camping the little rise near spawn with the 122mm. We are losing, but then the enemy team decides to drive at our spawn one at at time. I was worried when a near full health Tiger showed up, but I hit him in the front LFP and set him on fire.

Blitz also has +1/-1 matchmaking at low tiers and they said they won't be doing it on desktop. From what I heard Blitz also merged the mobile & Win10 queues so now everyone plays together. So if you'd like to play WoT with a mouse & keyboard but without arty, there you go!

Played my first tanks in over 2 years tonight, lost first 3, then won my 4th, but not because of anything I did. Man, I suck, and I don't have a clue where to be on maps anymore. Did they nerf the crap out of the T8 Borsig? I don't remember it being barely able to pull itself up a slope. After losing my first game in it doing only a single hit, albeit a kill, I played with that new T1 tank in my garage, looks like a large sideways shoe-box with a tiny turret on top. The only thing to even research on it is a new gun, and of course the instant you win a game with x3 xp you can research the T2 tank so you don't even need to do that. I may need to try to platoon up with somebody and have them hold my hand for a while if I keep playing this weekend.

Hellsau posted:Wait, there's automatic Sixth Sense in World of Warplanes now?! I bought the 4 tank bundle on sale right now because I'm a giant whale. I'm terrible with the Cromwell B, haven't played the Rudy much (but it feels good), the only game I used the ISU-122S it went very well so I think I'll like that tank. But my favorite so far is the IS-2. It seems to be making money even if I shoot some liberal APCR, so long as I win. What upgrades are optimal for the IS-2? I've got Rammer and Optics, since it felt a bit blind, but unsure as to the last upgrade. I'm feeling GLD, but I'm not sure how often I want to be aiming down at targets with RASHA accuracy, I think vents would do me better in general.

Hazdoc posted:Does warplanes even have a spotting mechanic? Would Sixth Sense even be USEFUL if there is? I dont imagine there's sniper planes. Warplanes does have a spotting mechanic but it almost never matters unless you're really far up in the sky, or really far near the ground, and when I stopped playing Warplanes you would randomly nose dive into the ground every now and again for no apparent reason if you were too far down. I'm almost certain Sixth Sense was an available skill for your crew members, but since you would only get two crew members at most (Pilot and Tail Gunner) and since there were some utterly broken skills and since grinding skills takes for loving ever, I don't think Sixth Sense was all that common. The Berlin Quartet bundle is the best value Wargaming's ever sold. 3 great tanks, a solid tank (the ISU-122s) and 4 fancy crews? This is how you get people to give you money.

I don't really get the crews though. The big draw of premiums for me was the crew training without penalty from non-premium vehicles, and having crews specifically trained for the premiums sort of defeats that and forces you to retrain them into the non-premium vehicle you want to stick them into, doesn't it? Or am I missing something?
