Yeah, but I'm terrified that might only include the buffs to the skirts (or something?), instead of the really important shoulder buff. Back in October (  ), only the Type 5 was supposed to get the shoulder buff AND the skirt buff, and they went back and forth on whether the Type 4 also got it or not. Fingers crossed. Staring at the login screen without connecting still.

Those HP blocked missions are loving dumb because HE damage doesn't count even if it does 0 damage and 0 damage crits don't count.

Oh my lord, the Type 4's new howitzer.  Specifically, it's gold HE round.  I AM BECOME DEATH /edit: There is no way they're leaving this gun in as is. No way. I mean, it'll probably get implemented since almost no-one on the test server seems to give a poo poo about the new Types, instead opting to masturbate over the new German heavies. But once this gun goes live...RIP tier 9 and below. Casually booped a Kranvagn for 650 damage on the upper edge of his turret. Murdered his gunner, gun, and observation device. Side of a Maus turret, 550 damage. E-100 turret face? Still ~500 damage. Splashed two tanks for 400 damage each because they were close to each other. Hit the weird fence-thing of a 103B, he takes no damage, dude next to him gets splashed for 250  (I thought spaced armor is supposed to completely negate shells?)

Yeah, I've also had some mixed results after a few games. 60 damage on a Kranvagn's, uh...mantlet? First completely negated shell eaten by a T95 somewhere on the front. Weirdly enough, I still managed to knock 500 damage into an E4's front just a minute ago. Really inconsistent results. But this is all exclusively at Tier 10. Can you loving imagine what this gun does to Tier 9/Tier 8? And you still break even firing all gold as long as you rack up something around 3k damage as far as I've seen. /edit: The same gun has a 14.3 second reload on the Type 5 with vents, rammer, and BIA. Jesus. /edit2: Uhh...that's basically 2000+ applied HE dpm, just at tier 10. Duzzy Funlop fucked around with this message at 01:50 on Feb 3, 2017 |

I find it funny how enemies panic when I send my O-Ni and AT 15a side by side at them. I also find it remarkable that of the three times I have done that so far, a few of my teammates have been bold enough to follow me each time.

Some weird bundles up for the weekend for NA. Gold/premium time/ and a mission? Basically the missions are combined xp/credit personal reserves that only apply on a win. 30%/30% first ten wins, 50%/50% first 10 wins.

So they are finally buffing the speed on the T95 (and T28/T28 prot.). Perhaps now I can actually have some proper fun with it, and not always arrive on the scene after my team is dead. At the moment the T95 makes the Type 5 feel like a goddamn race car.

Thats... a lot of premiums. I would like to hear your thoughts on the T26E5 versus the AMX M4 mle 49. I'd like to buy one of them to grind credits, and would like something with decent armor for a change and less stress (I already have plenty of unarmored premiums like the Skorpion G and FCM 50t). Specifically I'm wondering how easy is it in practice to hide your hull in the T26E5, since its not so well armored versus how much the AMX M4 mle 49 suffers from the weak commander's cupola? Also, there is the question of ammunition: On the one hand the American's ammo is 3 times better in terms of credit/damage value, but its an APCR shell so it gets less normalization and may bounce more often than the French shell which is less cost effective but should penetrate more often thanks to being an AP shell at the same nominal penetration value. Which do you prefer overall and why?

the Pz7 feels pretty OK. hits hard, gun handling is OK, armor is OK, speed is OK but it's like one branch over from the E-100, which is more than OK.

Atomizer posted:Yeah, you can't win every battle, and you can't control your pubbies, but you can use them to your advantage. I've thought about it. But then I'd have to face up to my moments of stupidity instead of staying anon and just troll the chat when people start whining about who sucks and who doesn't. Lately i'm getting a bit gun shy about running too deep. Seems any time I've got a good amount of support and we're at the pivotal moment of destroying the flank, a bunch decide "Nah, should'a gone the other way" and bolt or do something stupid because they need to up their kill count so those of us left either get overwhelmed or flanked. I also got involved in my first battle against tier 10 tanks. Managed to punch a Waffentrager in the rear end a few times and kill him while watching a T110E5 and a T62A flip themselves upside down in separate places.....kinda ruins any expectations for the game if even the tier 10 guys act like morons

I'm waffling similarly and leaning towards the E5. The E5 seems to be a significantly better credit earner than the M4, if that matters to you. I also really would like a crew trainer for American heavies and I don't have any French heavies yet so there's that.

I keep looking at the T-44-100, but it just seems overpriced. At $54.99 it is only a $1.00 cheaper than the Patriot. It is $15.00 Mutz. It is almost $15.00 over the T-54 First Proto. I have a hard time believing it is just that much better than other mediums to justify the cost of a Patriot. Is it somehow just a lot better than what I'm seeing (and it does have several attractive features, just not sure about that price). Finally, I thought Wargaming was going to start doing reduced prices if you had one version of a tank and wanted to get the re skinned version. It seems like the Patriot and Liberte are left out there.
