Due to the diminishing player base, OP tanks and ease of getting out of lower tiers the MM tends to "do its best" when making matches. listen, sometimes i'm in a bad mood, and I fire up the ol BT-7 art because no matter how the game goes I'm goign to have a good time.

I will never forget the day I got messaged after a game in the at-7 with someone calling me a hacker. Because literally noone experiences a stock gun at-7. I was such a person because nothing carried over from the churchgc back then.

Yeah, Skill played it after the buff and said that the gun is now great, but the platform is poo poo. Well, he didn't say poo poo, he said "kako", but same thing. I've also been playing my KV-2(R) a lot recently, because for some reason I keep getting that "kill 4 enemies in a match" daily a lot, and if you get a T6 match in the KV-2 that's a four shot mission. Holy poo poo this thing is a stupid amount of fun. Like Skill also said, that thing on paper has AWFUL accuracy, but it must have some kind of hidden modifier or special case because even with the most ridiculous snapshots you'll hit a lot more often than with for instance the Grille 15.

Well that's pretty much a perfect coda to my AMX M4 45 career. Not the most damage I did in the thing, but a pretty nice spread of medals and within 1 hp of getting the sixth kill.

My plan to skip the AMX 65t fell apart halfway through: I only had enough neutral blueprint parts for 50% off (impossible, WG's CMs assured us that everyone has TOO MANY universal blueprints and banned everyone who disagreed from their chat). That still leaves like 80k XP plus 15k for the turret that's in the way. I've got 47k free XP right now and I'm seriously considering just paying for the rest because jesus loving christ this thing is MISERABLE as stock, and I kinda don't have the interest to grind 57k XP (tracks + turret + engine) to find out if it becomes tolerable later.

I free XP'd past the AMX 65t. I came to the conclusion that I value my free time and sanity more than the 10€ it cost me to bypass this awful thing. The AMX M4 51 immediately feels a LOT better.

Good lord this game's community is just a loving sewer. Serene coast, T8-T9 game. I was driving towards the right side of the map in my AMX M4 51 when a Type 4 Heavy was spotted in the open. I paused to take some shots at it and I guess that didn't fit the plans of some guy, because he just went off on me. He started with racial slurs, moved on to telling me to kill myself (repeatedly and in several ways) and then kept it up in private messages after the match. It's kinda nuts that some people are like this over very minor poo poo in a loving video game.

If you have the time, you can take screenshots and file a support ticket and they'll eat a chatban. You can do this for anyone who swears at all and the chatban gets longer each time.

My initial feelings on the Vipera were that I hated the tank, but now that I've played it more it's turned into a love/hate. I have really excellent games in it where the gun and armor work and I deal 3k damage and defend and entire flank while vastly out gunned. Then the next game everybody pens me and I die in the first 2 mins. It's really hard to get a consistent game out of it.

It's not bullshit and OP to play against, but it is a lot of fun and straightforward. Unless something drastic happens this is definitely going to be a keeper even after the grind, just like the E-75. I also went and rebought the Caernarvon. Maybe I'll go for the Super Conqueror again? Now how do I play this thing? I know it's a hull down monster, but I still seem to eat a ton of pens through my turret from tanks you wouldn't expect to be able to snipe my weak spots, at least not reliably.

The turret is sturdy and can take hits, but the chassis cannot. It shits out damaged at a shocking rate, so I generally play it hyper aggressively.

It can either be incredibly fun, or incredibly frustrating. You can get stuck with 14 drooling morons for teammates and nothing you can do will pull off a win. Or you can be stuck as the last person alive and kill 5 enemies to pull off the win. It's like putting your hand into a bag full of hard lumps and you don't know if you're going to pull out a gold nugget or some horseshit.

I know I say I have a "hyper-aggressive" play style, and I realized that is kind of a broad and vague term. I just had a pretty OK game that demonstrates what I mean:    Replay: http://wotreplays.eu/site/6382117 YouTube: https://youtu.be/zWyzY1Dl8Ps Edit: Katamari Democracy posted:Is the T10 Yoh worth it?

Anyone know a good 5 crew tank line to go down? I want to put my Halloween witches and cat somewhere. Also everyone singing the praises of the AMX M4 line make me think I should reconsider going down the French autoloader heavy line. Also also if anyone has tips for stock Standard B that would be appreciated, barely won a single game in that thing.

"Plonk yourself in a hulldown position and melt fools with a 120mm gun" is the general idea. Just keep the hull away from anything harsher than direct sunlight.
