My first impression of Railgun is that the accuracy improvements are really nice. Being able to hit things without aiming, for what feels like an eternity, is fun. Stats not counting against us is good too. However, that 445 proxy range takes some getting used to and don't think I like it.

Railgun is pretty fun. Lurking between 445m and 502m in the FV215b 183 is my jam. 5 straight wins.

According to skill, it is the best way to farm credits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzLEiIAFPKc For the main reason being that there are no stats being recording to your account. So just whatever it. Die within a 1 minute? Oh well, grab another tank and go. Lights and thin skinned tds are probably not a good idea. I may have to try arty as accuracy to arty sounds like another comedy mine similar to running around with the shitbarn and deathstar.

I'm not interested in any of the BP tanks; got the Char last time and it's collecting dust because I vastly prefer playing the AMX 30. Someone please talk me off the ledge of buying a Liberté with all the bonds I get from converting the coin things and points. It's either that or a 9000 bond set of rammer+stabs  e; the only heaves I enjoy are the E75 style so it looks like a good fit, but the poor gun handling in videos is troubling. sauer kraut fucked around with this message at 18:39 on Jul 17, 2022 |

I don't understand why people keep going beach on overlord. If my team sends more than 3 tanks to the beach on overlord I just have to hope the enemy team is equally dumb. The only way they win from beach is if they are able to basically push all the way to the end while keeping all their hit points and begin flanking. But by then usually the rest of the team is dead and the enemy team just snipes them from the cliffs. The valley on Lakeville is kind of the same thing, but it at least kind of makes sense for hull down tanks to go. The beach on overlord is just a shooting gallery for the team that wins the top.

It's because both the beach and valley are presented as viable routes when they are actually not. WG is obsessed with making DotA maps but they can't figure out to make all 3 lanes viable on every map. And pubbies are too dumb to understand that even though a lane is open/traversable, it's a bad choice. So they go Lakeville valley and don't understand why their tanks are so slow (it's swampy terrain) or why their team isn't "helping them" (they're isolated by goddamn mountains) but they're too dumb to learn from their mistakes.

Lakeville is poo poo-tier garbage map design and I loving hate it enough to often just go for a swim ASAP whenever I get shoved onto that shitheap, especially if the MM shits the bed and delivers another thrilling +2MM 4/5/6 setup where I might as well be armed with a tennis ball launcher. loving trash.

Lakeville is fine if you go town. You can pretty much ignore anybody who went valley until your side loses and you have to go clean up the people that push out from it to your base. That's kind of the funny thing about the beach on overlord and the valley on lakeville... Every now and again the people that go that route actually win their lane soon enough to help win the game and think that's the correct way to play the map. You really just need some defenders to go those sides to make sure the enemy isn't zerging the valley/beach and that's about it.

After the awesome experience I had with the IS-M I thought the 705 would be just as great. Nope. Actually having a rather terrible time with the tank. It is just too slow for the current meta, and the gun is awful.

It's been a couple years since I played that line, but I found the experience to be the reverse, at least back then. The ISM is kinda mediocre, considering it doesn't have that effective armor and the gun is worse than the one on the IS3. The 705, meanwhile, has usable armor and a choice of the IS7 gun or a slightly worse IS4 gun. It's not particularly fast, though, I'll agree with that.

Vastly preferred the Obj. 705 over the IS-M here too. The 705 didn't feel particularly amazing (IMO vehicles with rear-mounted turrets never do feel all that great, with the exception of the VK45.02 B) and moved with all the urgency of a salted slug but it did at least have potential to scare guys away with its gun while offering some level of resistance when hulldown or sidescraping. The IS-M on the other hand just felt miserable in most situations. Turning the hull to meet threats was objectively a total loving nightmare and the so-called armour would regularly have all the protective properties of melted cheese. Granted that the 705 had the advantage when it came to the MM so it was never shat on by +2 scenarios but god almighty even againt Tier VIII tanks the gun on the IS-M seemed to do everything possible to misbehave, with low-rolls and no-pens galore, and that was if the fucker was even on-target! Easily one of my most-cursed vehicles. A truly hateful experience.

Having an enemy Type 64 go full ham on a suprise scouting run around Himmelsdorf only to miss his turn and crash into my KV-3 -- losing all of his hp in that one moment -- is still one of the most  moments I have had in this game.

It's that kinda Sunday again Getting dangerously close to 20% winrate   Finding myself unable to play anything but the turbo & hardening T95, and premiums like Even and Borat during clan booster times. Next BP imma unlock the Tortoise with blueprints and that'll be it. T'n'T all evening long, not giving a single gently caress. sauer kraut fucked around with this message at 19:36 on Jul 24, 2022 |
