I only run food on my Church3, and that's because I find 1.85 seconds reload time fun.

Maybe it didn't happen in any of my games, maybe it did and I've just blocked it out mentally due to the trauma.  E Equals MC Hammer posted:The FV4005 is such a silly tank. HAY GUISE I LIEK TEH FV4005! DO YUO LIEK IT TO???!?  I'm headed up that line too.  HFX posted:I don't remember the T-34-85 being that drat good. Did it get buffed? The T-34-85 has always been so good that it was one of my favorite tanks years ago when I grinded it and I was...more mediocre than I am now? I think I managed a 60% WR in it when my overall was closer to 50%. No real reason to keep both it and the Rudy though if you have the latter (barring some weird Tourney rules if anyone actually still does those.) Cardiac posted:The T-34-85 have always been good (didn't play it with the old 100 mm), but it is a perfect mix of speed, alpha, penetration and decent armour (well, turret armour) for a tier6. This was always my criticism of the T-43; the same tank a tier higher is quite "meh" regardless of how good the tier 6 was. HFX posted:Duzzy just pointed out to me that I am probably confusing the T-34-85 with the T-43. The T-43 has such great features as having both the ammo-rack and fuel tank on the front right of the tank. 2 for one chance to explode! I do feel the A-43 to A-44 is analogous to the T-34-85 to T-43 jump. This, except the A-44 is significantly more painful than the T-43.  Meta-Mollusk posted:T-34-85 and Type 58 were such enjoyable tanks to play that I'm considering doing something dumb like buying the Rudy or T-34-85M if they pop up at a reasonable price at some point. Apparently the M kinda sucks, but perhaps the upcoming buffs will make it worthwhile. The 85M, post-gun-buff will be in a weird place where it trades mobility for armor, except I'm not sure how much the extra armor is going to matter. That's not to say it doesn't need the buff, but we'll see how it does once people actually start driving them! ROFLburger posted:What's the deal with the T49? It has a comical amount of alpha but garbage pen. Is it designed to slam dunk arty and on more armored vehicles, just damage modules/crew members? Something something land-arty.... Azhais posted:I never waste a slot on an extinguisher. I get set on fire at worst 5% of my games. I'd rather carry food or a second repair kit Two kits are one thing but the food will probably negate any profitability. I don't run my tanks with food, but I'd have trouble seeing the benefit of doing so over the drawback of making no progress in terms of credit generation. Not saying you can't do it, it's just not for everybody. Cartoon posted:Talk me out of the SU-122-44. The 122-44 is the best/worst tank in the game, just like the Comet. Also, LOL @ the "total battles=skill" pubbie.  Apparently ALL CAPS and a few tens of thousands of battles makes this guy 1337 AF.... You should introduce him to Definder, maybe this dude's head will explode.

Atomizer posted:As a Type 59-haver let me tell you: it's not that great (particularly anymore.) The FCM50 is a better pref 8, at least for my playstyle. The Type-59 is still the best tier 8 medium and a very strong tank overall. Desuwa posted:Even by WG standards the 252U is absurd. WG did away with pref-MM tanks so they had to make new Tier 8 premiums stronger and have been buffing the poo poo out of the older tier 8 non-prefs to make them more competitive in higher tier matches. This development has actually been one of the better things WG has done over the last few years.

Now if they'd only buff the non-premium tier 8s so they aren't laughably terrible compared to the new premiums. Who the hell would play the KV-4 when they could play the AMX M4 49? The T26E5 goes faster than many tier 8 mediums and has actual armor and a great gun. If they'd buff all the tier 8s up to the level of the new premiums, then they might actually be slightly competitive in tier 10 battles.

Maybe that's why they're buffing the VK3002D even when it really does not need any further buffs - they'll buff the best tier 7s and then buff the rest up to their level after testing to see if they can compete with the new tier 8s.

McGavin posted:The Revalorisé is pretty ridiculous after the buff. It's like a T34 with better mobility and DPM. More like a T34 with worse pen and turret armour, but better mobility and accuracy. But yeah. The shell speed on the Reval is just great and the tank is just amazing with the shell speed in combination with your Auto-aim mod (still not banned). Just right click, left-click and the enemy tank wonders what happened. I have lost track of the number of times when I have hit a LT on the move simply using auto-aim. Negatives are the long reload and non-existent armour which makes it an easy target when alone.

Hey Desuwa, remember that last battle we were just in? It was down to me in my full-HP Leo Proto vs a 1-shot T110E5 and a ~1/2 HP Jagzilla. I circled around the map to throw them off, dove in, took out the E5 while taking his shot to my rack. With ~1400 HP left I took the Jagzilla's shot to the rack on the other side and blew up!  How's that for luck? Go untouched for ~13 minutes and the only two hits are ammo racking shots. gently caress this gay game. SocketWrench posted:I've seen 3 on 3 T26E4s. It would have been glorious if any of the idiots on my team knew where to pen the very tank they drive. We're not talking about that. MM used to intentionally pull the same vehicle and stuff them all on one team (think 10 Type 59s on the enemy team.) Some of the guys are saying they've been in battles with 10+ SPGs per team.

The only way to get it atm is to buy a T-34-85 Italeri 1:35 model kit from Wargaming, which comes with the code plus some other WoT crap. 50 Euros, EU only.

Cartoon posted:Buy the package That's actually not a bad idea, although a bit too much effort for a virtual tank in a dumb garbage game that I hate most of the time. Italeri sells the same kit for 35€, although it has no mention of the Rudy, which would explain the steeper price at Wargaming. Except, the Italeri website also has this:  Gee, I sure hope they mean the Rudy, and not the literally-always-available-and-not-rare-at-all Churchill III by this "rare tank not usually available in the in-game store". So nice of Wargaming to be absolutely clear about this stuff. Edit: Got an answer from Italeri. Theirs only has the Churchill and Wargaming sells the same thing, except they throw in the Rudy as a bonus so they can ask 50€ for it.

Barry posted:Not sure how a 99th percentile game is somehow an average battle. I only got 4 kills and didn't even get High Caliber, it's only 99th percentile because I'm shooting tier nines instead of tier sixes. It's easy to get 3k+ damage as long as you remember that you're a second line tank and don't ever want to be getting shot. The gun depression, aim time, turret traverse, and general mobility combine to make it very comfortable to drive too. The T34 feels like it does everything glacially slow in comparison.
