After tonight I'm convinced Tiger I drivers are morons. 6 battles with 6 different tigers and each one they either panic and roll it, miss near every shot, or just sit in the field and welcome the arty rain. Not one managed to score above 200 damage.

Nationalism is a disease that rots the mind and enshackles the brain. What do you think happens to someone whose brand of nationalism worships the Nazis and their comically inept tank designers?

Which is hilarious considering what a beast the Tiger I really is.
A good player in a Tiger I is pretty dangerous, but you have to be a good player to make the most of the Tiger1 strengths.

The HT no 6 needs to be increased 1 tier, and given the actual Tiger 1's stats. I hate how inferior it is to the O-I.

Listened to quickybaby's 252U apologism :airquote:review:airquote: video and it's amazing in how evasive he is over how overpowered it is. Quickybaby is such a massive shill for wargaming, he'll play up the worst garbage saying it "might work for you" but defend this overpowered garbage by complaining that it's front armor is not as good against t10s as the M4 49.

Nevermind that it's got better front armour, even against t10s, than any other t8 heavy.

The only thing Quickybaby is good for is finding out if a tank is worthless. If he says it is not worth the money, you can bet it is utter trash (see Krupp-Steyr Waffentrager). Looking at the 252U's statistics says it is overall better than the T-34 or Lowe. I would dare say it is probably better than the Patriot or Liberte except in damage. I look forward to driving it like my IS-7 and laughing as I rack up Steel Walls.

I think the IIJ was before they were doing it deliberately, they just didn't understand their game enough (not that they do now, but they've got no excuses now). Plus without tons of premium ammo, which would have cost gold when it was new, the IIJ really isn't that great and can't pen a lot of tier 3s.

Of course it's absurd that they sold the thing in the shop because it is broken as all hell and the only thing keeping t2-4 playable was that there weren't very many of them.


I see patriots constantly. The tank is idiot proof, if anything even more than the IS-6 was in t8 battles. It also hard counters the IS-6 by being able to pen the IS-6 reliably but being immune to the IS-6's premium rounds with slight angling or distance, except in the cupola.

It's also got the T34 and Lowe beat for both alpha and DPM.

If a mildly competent player like me can manage a 62% WR in the Patriot almost exclusively solo pubbing, it's idiot proof.

I had a top tier match in Westfield last night where I absolutely poo poo all over the other team - 3200 damage and 8 kills. Not even a mastery badge. Definitely not OP.

Anyone know how many viewers this guy usually got? Right now the highest viewer count for WoT on Twitch is 450ish, which is pathetically low. Even people playing Magic the Gathering Online have WoT beat, and MTGO looks like a game from the early 2000s.

I don't think the changes can go into the game as shown. The changes effectively kill light tanks wholesale. It's the same thing with the arti changes on the Sandbox - why not just loving remove the class if you're going to nerf them into uselessness? From what we've seen, most of the light tanks have stats that would make them garbage premiums if they got pref matchmaking. Who the gently caress wants to play a blind tank with no HP and no armor and horrible guns?

They're most likely putting them all in on the supertest, seeing what works, and then buffing the worst tanks. That fits with their previous tests. They either put the tanks in overpowered and nerf them, put the tanks in overpowered and keep them in overpowered, or put them in weak and then substantially buff them without bothering to retest.

A medication I was on had the oddly specific side-effect of utterly killing my interest in WoT. Like, anytime I felt the urge to play, I'd realize I'd missed a dose.

Once the habit was broken, I was free, free at last.
