skaianDestiny posted:GDN was apparently a Nazi infested place, and when discovered they nuked GDN. I didn't see gdn specifically, but thadeus melting down I did watch. And that was an amazing experience. It is the reason there are 3 threads for new world btw. First was the pre-release stuff. Second shortly after launch and then the ensuing meltdown. And then the 3rd is everyone getting back to playing the game. There are still some bits coming back, but it is all just fun and jest at the whole thing.

Pansy is still a thing in tanks as well as other goon clans that refuse to leave their clans for lore reasons., Which is ok because the Pansy Discord is still populated by pretty much every goon who still plays tanks. We have kinda opened up to friends / non goons into joining us but we are nowhere close to doing clan stuff. We still invite people from Discord to platoon even though its usually the same few folks who participate in voice chat.

PANSY is the cool place to hang out. You can find most of the cool people here. In PANSY you can just chill and do whatever and totally relax. "Take it easy" is the PANSY motto, for example, that's how laid back it is here. Show up if you want to have a good time. Another good reason to show up is if you want to hang out with friends.

Another of those nights where I seriously wonder why I even play this game. There's been one game where I could have theoretically affected the outcome, and six complete loving steamroller losses where Jesus himself couldn't have helped anything. E: seven steamrollers. By the time I'd reached the NW corner on El Hallouf in my TNH 105 it was 0-4. Shaman Tank Spec fucked around with this message at 16:59 on Oct 7, 2021 |

The 11-hit minimum for Steel Wall is a bit silly. You should get one by default when you bounce a shot from a JPzE100 and two shots from a T30 in your tier 8 tank...

T-44-100, was that supposed to be good? They're selling it on the EU servers now along with the Offspring tank. E: lol 40€ for the cheapest T-44 package. gently caress off, Wargaming.

T-44-100 is a very good medium for a lot of reasons. Im phone posting but the general idea of that tank is that it has incredible versitality and can be anywhere it wants so long as you play support. The gun is average and to me its turret isnt that great. It has good side skirts so you can maybe side scrape. But your speed and dpm is what makes you shine. It is however blind. So bring a crew with view range to kinda offset it. Edit. If you play against tier 9s and X. Good luck. Its not great against them.

It isn't blind. 380 m is standard for tier 8.

Hey old timer vets. How long has wargaming been dragging people by the nose about the sturmtiger? I recall there was a shed with the model hidden in it as an easter egg at one point. But yet, it never arrived. Instead the console team are doing it. https://console.worldoftanks.com/en/sturmtiger-line/

But yet, it never arrived. I had to look it up (on the official wiki) because I couldn't remember the name; it was Severogorsk. Anyways, the Sturmtiger line looks ridiculous but possibly fun as gently caress, but would be awkward in PC WoT, both due to the recent HE nerf, but also because fuckoff-alpha HE shells are what they're trying to transition away from (e.g. the 183.) But they might be fun to play in a special event or something like that! Also, looking at the removed maps on the wiki made me a little nostalgic for some of them. I could go for some Dragon Ridge, Port, Sacred Valley, or South Coast. Obviously they were more or less removed for being unbalanced in some way, but other than that it would be nice to take them for a spin again for old time's sake.

I am extremely liking the Indien-Panzer. Are the Leopards like it, but better? Or do they pull an E50 again where your fun second line snipers suddenly turn into something else at T9?

I think this is one of my highest damage games I have ever done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaWdGuxbWJw When this line first came out, I used to laugh because they are supposed to be papery, but their gun handling at t9 and t10 is just amazing. They snipe better than e-50 line do it honestly.

I think I liked the Indien-Panzer as well (after I got everything maxed out), but played very few games in it due to 5x. The Leopards are great if you like playing the early game support sniper role with a really accurate gun with good pen, then late game bully with your full HP.

skaianDestiny posted:Im a bit torn whether to go down the E50 line or the Leopards. The Leopards are more applicable to the current meta. The arty/HE nerfs were a huge buff to lightly-armored tanks. The only thing the E50s excel at are if you really, really, REALLY like to ram poo poo at high speeds.

The whole idea of a "brawling medium" is kinda dead in the 2021 meta, especially one with German style flat armour panels. So you can't do that, and instead you have to try to be an opportunist ambusher (which autoloaders can do so much better) or a sniper (which apparently the Leopards can do a lot better). If you do go up the E50 tree, I'd recommend stopping at T9. The E50M is essentially the same tank, but a tier higher. I'm probably gonna sell my E50M tbh since it's not any fun at all to play.

About 70k out of 178k done towards the Leopard PT A. Temptation to use fragments... rising. The Indien-Panzer isn't a bad tank by any means but the T8 situation is kinda rough, because I'm facing T9s and T10s very often, and the Indien-Panzer struggles in those games. E: I don't have enough universal fragments (Impossible! WG told us we're drowning in them and CRYING out for less of them!) to skip the whole thing, just to slice 40% off the top.

Did they change the transmission box on the e-50? That was literally the only difference from the e-50 to the e-50m. E-50 had a front transmission hit box that counted towards the engine while the m model dropped it.

The E50 is a good and fun tank in my experience, but I have actually never bothered to get the T10. Basically all it got was better ammo but I think after the balance pass they gave it even better armor than the T9? Did they touch its DPM at all though?

The big thing with the E50M is it's not a massive upgrade to the E 50. It's still an upgrade but a lot of that gets balanced away with the even more tier X it sees. You end up needing to be more careful than you expect.
