Captain_Blaargh and myself played a round tonight and I dared myself to hit the record button and see if this game was going to be worth uploading to share with you guys. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EV387qOl5Y I will put the mic closer to my face next time. But I had a really fun time that round due to pure absolute luck. My brother Zwartzentruber gave me full permission to record his amazing game in the EBR where he did over 7k spotting.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cy41hrFS1mY I did the most dmg that round!

I can't find anything about what teams people are picking. I thought Circon was in this? That leaves Skill4ltu as the obvious choice by popularity. Dez has the coolest camo though. On NA, Team Dragon camo looks better to me.

They also have voice lines in the game apparently, so Skill will be the most unique, he has a crazy thick accent. Also Quickybaby released a video saying why he refused to be part of it because apparently he thinks people care about why he is not part of it(???)

Circon is not in it due to some terrible miscommunication between both parties. That was a heart breaking stream to watch. One of those weird "I was there" things.

No no, you see, he is sitting out for us to protest the insane grind required to get your favorite CC as a commander. Unlike those other sellouts who don't fight for us, the people.

I mean, I get that the hate for QB in here is universal, and I don't like his love of the wargaming-teat, but a look at the game mode players will have to endure to grab your favorite content creator as a fake internet pixel tank commander looks so incredibly bad that it's giving me vibes of other lovely game modes. Like, really bad vibes. And I was part of a group of idiots that definitely didn't engage in an orchestrated effort to abuse a comically lovely game mode in order to earn a fake internet pixel tank award.

Like, if I'm not reading this correctly, I'll be happy to admit I'm wrong, but it looks like to get this thing you can't just casually play tier tens (the shittiest of tiers) for hours on end every single day until the end of the event, but ONLY games played in the special 7vs7 game mode will count?

QB claiming that he's standing up for the "below average players" because the special event, in world of tanks, is too much of a grind feels like some hot bullshit. just be a man and say you think the cut is unfair

So how could he have known he was standing up for the poor pubbies? Lmao the dude is so full of himself. Edvin made a good response video for AEG: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=As6wYZE7vDE

Wooo... had enough free exp to upgrade to 100mm guns on the IS-II. Then went on to lose my first 4 games in a row. One of those games we were up 9 tanks to 4 and our team used the bad ninja movie tactic of sauntering up one at a time to camping TDs. Quit out so I could play some Elite Dangerous, so I can SCREAM ABOUT TANK WARFARE IN THE VACUUM OF SPACE

First thoughts on the IS22: -The driver gets knocked out a LOT. -It's sluggish and kind of bad at everything stock, which isn't unique, but I'd say there's no right order to unlock the modules as with some other tanks; the stock guns at least have pen and DPM, but are peashooters, while mobility all around needs improvement. I went with the guns first, then the turret, but only because the turret rotation is so slow to begin with, not that it seems to get penned in the stock turret much. However, I'm also desperately in search of better acceleration and hull traverse; I could use free XP, but it's not absolutely necessary so I'm trying to stick it out. You could argue that it's playable with the stock guns and needs mobility first though. -I've had a couple good games in it, but still haven't figured out its role; it's not really heavily armored enough to be an actual heavy, so I'm kind of treating it like a 2nd line sniper/MT.

Oh absolutely, it's going to be an awful grind and I personally will not even try for it because it would probably just make me quit the game. I don't understand WGs love of masochism, they do this all the time.

Atomizer posted:First thoughts on the IS22: Best game I had was covering Lakeville middle road from K 7/K 8 and then moving up through the 7 line to push our advantage when we won in the city. Got 3 double shot pens into a fv 4202, a chinese TD and a light on the middle road. Wasn't fast enough to get any other shots in while moving up on the enemy base. So yeah, MOBILITY. e; Oh and I got yelled at all match for camping and thinking I was a TD. Even tho I was the only one taking shots down the middle for the scout and covering their dumb asses in town from getting shot from the center road. Pubbies are ungrateful as poo poo. Playing it like a broke engine Progetto 46 seems to be what I'm leaning into. Punish people who over expose to get at allies flanks and get to an enemy flank to hit people unawares. Definitely not reliable as a corner hugging brawler. MariusLecter fucked around with this message at 13:33 on Jan 30, 2020 |

Anyone got a dummy's guide to the t-150? I've tried popping out like I would with the KV-1/KV-1S and it simply doesn't have the armor. Is it a bulky TD?

Cannon_Fodder posted:Anyone got a dummy's guide to the t-150? Yes. Because you have armor doesn't mean you can let people shoot you. You only pull out when they aren't looking take an aimed shot than cover up. You can bait shots by side scraping and wiggling with the a and d keys. If they take the bait you get to shoot back. Don't rush your shot you have time to wait for him to poke out again if you have to. Just play slow and stay with other tanks so you don't get over run. Don't rush you'll get more use if you are patient.

So, the more I play the IS-2-II the more I both like it and want to get out of it. It's not bad at all, but I feel like it doesn't do anything special compared to the premium. Its turret armor is great and it has decent depression, but the T9 is just flat out better in every single category. I really do like the tank, but I don't think it is a keeper as of right now. Also, I have the premium T8, which better fits my play style. Cannon_Fodder posted:Anyone got a dummy's guide to the t-150? With the amount of gold being slung around at all tiers, do not rely on your armor to bounce anything. Try to bait people into shooting your tracks and don't over extend (it is slow enough to prevent you from doing that immediately but, not slow enough to prevent it totally). Patience and map awareness wins map, being a martyr only works if you can truly waste enough of the opposing teams time. Which does not happen too often now-a-days, but this morning I wasted about 4 minutes of 5 enemy tanks time by myself by being a pest, this allowed our team to push another flank. The only reason I was in that position was because I am a creature of habit and went to a spot I normally always go to without looking at the map. I got lucky and died with lovely stats, but a win is a win. Then I got two back to back 3k damage games in my 261. I felt like a scumbag, but I needed the crits for the mission  .
