Before the changes it was a tiny, fast artillery with a short ranged smaller caliber gun that was balanced by the fact that the shells basically came down vertically and were extremely accurate, so you could dump 450 damage shells onto engine decks every 12 seconds, and be small and quick enough to gtfo when the enemy started getting too close. I loved the gun so much that i continued to use it on the Crusader SP, and had +60% wins. It was amazing. After the changes, it's almost identical, except for two crucial changes: it's the size of a barn now, and has half the pen, so you basically can't pen roofs and engine decks anymore, which means your damage is total dogshit.

HELLSAU bought the type 61 too (much better than sta1) finally done grinding the pos STA-1 , worst tier 8 iv ever played i think if not, second worst Turmoilx fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Oct 24, 2017 |

The STA-1 was just a better Pershing that trading away the unreliable armor of the Pershing for an extremely useful speed boost. They're both total dogshit compared to premium tier 8s.ZogrimAteMyHamster posted:I won't be rebuying the FV304. It's complete loving poo poo.

Turmoilx posted:the coolest guy on NA server I had to do the math on this. So 8k damage would be 32 full-pens, which is doable from the 56-shell ammo load but of course all your shots generally don't hit & pen, so he probably fired almost all his ammo, and maybe benefitted from a fire or two. Also, it would've taken over 4 minutes of straight firing just to do that damage, so he potentially spent most of the battle holding LMB if he fired most his ammo and it wasn't a 15-minute match. BadLlama posted:Is the FV304 poo poo now or was that just a bad opinion? I don't know how it faired with arty changes. I hadn't played it in a long time until a week or two ago. It's pretty bad now. The damage output is low, the reload time is like 11-12 seconds with no stun, and the bloom is outrageous. In its prime it was a terror, but they seriously loving managed to nerf all the fun out of it. Meanwhile, the LeFH is still in the game in its original form....  Duzzy Funlop posted:I don't know how i loving suck this bad in glass cannon TDs and can't pull out good winrates, but this loving dumb thing has the most hilarious moments I guess your track ate that shot at a very shallow angle from the Proto, because even with the 105 it would overmatch anywhere on the Skorp.  Poil posted:Won't you get seriously banned if you tried that? I thought the rentals, at least after a certain point had an (R) next to their names to distinguish them from permanent vehicles.  Anyways, even if you exploited rentals somehow I think they'd just reverse the transaction once it was discovered. When people dick around with the premium shop and CC chargebacks they just lock your account if you're the "victim" until you can afford to reimburse them for the gold or whatever that was removed due to the chargeback.

After playing some more games in the AC4 and FV201 I have to say I really like them. They could both use some small buffs like the AC4 should have a better engine and the FV201 better turret armor. But I think this is more or less the power level a premium tank should have. But I guess that wouldn't make enough money and you couldn't have a nice power creep going.

I've been stupidly grinding up to the eight million credits I need for the E-100 with equipment and crew retraining, and I just noticed I hadn't even started the T-28Concept missions on EU, so that should conclude the grind in no time. What's mind-boggling is that I've completed light, medium, and TD missions for that branch with honors, but I can't find the female crew member I must have claimed for one of those three. I'm dreading the possibility that I may have dumped her into some free tier 1-2 premium that I was never going to play because I didn't understand the benefits of sisters of steel.

I've played some more into the WZ-131-2G FT, or whatever it's called, the tier 7 Chinese TD. It's basically a worse version of the tier 6. The stock gun is the same 100 that's the top one for the tier 6, but it's quite usable so you don't absolutely need free XP, and there's a better 100 mm that's one of the two viable top gun choices; the other is a 122 which I just recently unlocked, and it's got worse handling but I think I prefer it. Pen is similar, accuracy & aimtime are worse, and of course alpha is higher but so is DPM. The worst thing about it though is that it loses all the mobility that made the tier 6 pleasant to play. It ends up being more or less a SU-152 with the 122 (or the SU-122, or the SU-100 with the 122, etc.) although the Chinese one is kind of better in most stats (especially pen) besides DPM. Beyond that, highlights from tonight featured an E-100 running from my Type 4 (which ended in a draw) and my Type 4 getting snapshot by arty to win the game for his team, because of course #snapshotmeta in arty of all things should be possible. ~DYNAMIC GAMEPLAY~ Also had a monster scouting game on Fisherman's in the WZ-132, and finished the VK100.  Oh yeah, bought the 183, so I'm ready for my next free tier 10!

Atomizer i meant that guy had to get really lucky in a tank destroyer to manage TD-15 for 260 which requires 8k damage 6 kills now instead of 5 and win he probably did it before they made it harder which required only the 8k damage and 5 kills you didnt have to win still very hard when you actually try to get it done plus all the other crazy mission secondaries to manage to obtain that pretty icon hes the only one iv seen with it so far

Hold the gently caress on, I now need to finish EVERY one of the five mission types in the campaign to receive the reward-tank? Whatever happened to just completing four final missions with honors and trading in the lil whateverthefucks for the reward-tank? I also accidentally misclicked and completed a mission with an..."order"? I'm not entirely sure how hosed I am. Goddamnit, I just want to unlock the T28 Concept campaign for extra cash.
