BadLlama posted:nope Didn't think so. I can barely drag myself into platooning this loving game at weekends anymore, never mind attempting any solo poo poo. We have about four games, they're all 4-5-6 blowouts where we're the poo poo-tier vehicles that can't do anything, and the next half-hour is a miserable thirty minutes of asking ourselves just what the gently caress we were thinking when we booted the game.

I've been soloing tier 6 premiums to get the battle pass points and it's super chill and easy to get purple stats (>3k wn8 at 60% win rate).

EU server just isn't rewarding, or fun, or relaxing, or anything positive some 90% of the time. At all. It's an absolute hellhole of whales and idiots who invariably populate the +2 tiers over ten game streaks for some loving inexplicable reason. You either watch your side crush the enemy within two minutes as you stare blindly into the distance having somehow selected the empty flank from the beginning yet again, or your team gets loving destroyed within two minutes, leaving you to throw grains of rice at some impenetrable top-tier bullshit napkin premium/reward as your crew hurriedly passes around the emergency bleach ration to try and avoid being part of the inevitable OHK.

That sucks. I rarely see tier 8 when I'm playing tier 6 on NA. I see tier 7 more often, but tier 7 tanks are pretty much all trash.

Tier VII is one of my favourite tiers to gently caress around in when the matchmaker fails and instead does a good thing to create a single-tier battle. Tiger I, IS-2, T29, KV-13, Comet, Panther... all that good stuff. Tier VII is genuinely good (and dare I say balanced?) within itself for the most part, but then it's immediately rendered loving useless the moment Tier VIII shows up, because Tier VIII is loving broken and loaded with imba premiums and all that other stupid loving horseshit. Tier IX? Back to garage.

That is why tier 9 is the best tier. Also, I was just reminded of this gem while watching a video from a youtuber named Josh Strife Hayes. I was linked to him in the new world threads where he has moved from a "interesting game" at beta to "holy crap, how are the devs this bad" as of late. He does mmos in general and released a video yesterday about pay to win. I just happened to switch to the screen to see him scrolling a gamasutra headline from gdc in 2013. Wargaming proclaiming they were kicking pay to win to the curb in all their existing and future products. See the article here: https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/wargaming-kicks-pay-to-win-monetization-to-the-curb 8 years has changed the company a lot since then.....

I finally get a Daily Deal that I don't have already and it's the loving Awful Panther. Did they leak a dump of what offers are possible so I can skip this poo poo the next time around? I suppose I can't complain TOO much, my free Black Friday WoWS (a game I no longer play but keep installed just to collect the free poo poo WG still gives away for it) container had the T8 Black Nazi Aircraft Carrier in it.

So far I've got ones for the SU-85I, Awful Panther, and the tier 6 Swedish autoloader.

is the CS 53 LIS good? It's been a while since I played, but I have a bit of gold left on my account and one of my daily deals is it and some fluff for 11k gold.

Yeah, it's pretty decent for a non-autoloader tier 8 medium.

My daily deals have loving sucked. Today I got a deal for the Kranvagn 3D skin which would've been nice but it was force bundled with an UDES 14 Alt 5 3D skin, a tier 3 soviet premium (for reasons) and a bunch of other poo poo for a total of 7500 gold. No thanks.

Yeah the Lis is very good. No real weak points or faults, just a real solid and fun tank. Plus it's got a very cute little fox on the side of the turret which is fun to look at.

Yeah the LIS plays exactly like the T-44-100. The only difference is that it has i think a little less armour but the gun shoots lazers at people. Its a hidden gem like the 274A Soviet medium i keep harping about.

This well-deserved reward is a bit of a piss-take, isn't it?

For the life of me I can't see the logic (as a beta tester) in not getting 1000 bonds, one piece of improved equipment, and four Universal Manuals. The Universal Manuals are probably the most valuable to me because they accomplish a miracle - giving you 250,000xp of crew experience you didn't have to suffer grinding out. I mean, hell, even if you average 500-800xp/game, that's nearly *400* games you don't have to play. I also love that they're such skinflints (almost wrote skin*heads*) that you don't get extra Beta test emblems if you've gotten them before.

I was talking more about the VK28 mit 10,5 being a useless POS, rather than the other stuff, but that's a fair point. I'll probably throw my tokens at Premium Time and reserves, then not sign in for two weeks.
