Don't have the free-XP for it, and I don't really feel like spending actual money on something like that. Bizarrely, I'm actually doing quite well in the thing, but it's the first tank where doing well just doesn't seem fun for some reason. I played the Sturer Emil for something around 20 games after unlocking the top gun, and at least I wasn't doing well AND not having fun, but this is a weird experience. I've gotten a shitton of ram-kills though, that got a bunch of chuckles out of me. But the gun handling, oh my dear god, the gun handling. You've hit a pebble on the otherwise perfectly planar surface, you may now shoot exclusively at clouds.

The worst part of the A-44 is probably the awful module layout and the low health of those modules. I've had single shots from lower tier mediums take out 3 or 4 internal modules/crew plus my tracks.

You're playing a game, which is supposed to be fun (and essentially nothing else), and you're not having fun. You've run into an optional, unfun part of the game. Skip it. It's not a ton of free XP or cash to pass something that is a waste of your time and sanity. Just do it.

JFC Wargaming, how is each of your games 25GB? The game still looks like it's from the last decade. I'm debating whether I really need these games on my SSD. At this point I consistently load in before the timer has even started. That could be 50GB saved for open world games and poo poo like that.

I assume they're just going to hold off until they do the big rebalance. And by that, I mean when they give up on their big rebalance plans and just randomly change some poo poo and hope it works. How long did the T57 exist unnerfed, two years?

primelaw posted:Nah A-44 owns, all of these guys are just baddies. I will still stand by the Sturer Emil is not that bad if you never have to play it with the 105mm gun. The A-44 is one of the worst tanks in the game, followed by the Challenger. Sure the Emil is probably right behind them, but its still better. Since it has a gun that can hit things unlike the A-44, and actually does damage, unlike the Challenger.

Oh, gently caress me, I completely forgot about the concept of turning off accelerated crew training on elited tanks to farm up free-XP in no time. Only time I've done that was when I couldn't stand the Sturer Emil anymore. Thanks to a 3x weekend, that was a quick 35k free XP...looks like I might just throw away  , unlock the Object tomorrow, and not waste time on the A-44. Cool beans.

Get Repairs and then BiA, camo kinda junk. VStab and Rammer, then Optics if you want to be a general tank or Vents if you want to brawl.

http://worldoftanks.com/en/news/pc-browser/17/rules-violations-policy-updates/quote:Updated Rules and Violations Policy well I'm hosed if I ever start playing again. e: I've been gone so long  I have literally infinite notifications. e2: lol first game back, I got MT-12 (fire mission) in my WZ-120 by setting a Grille 15 on fire twice with HE. Yes I know they made that mission easier and I don't care. Probably would have won that game if I didn't miss the first couple minutes due to my game crashing while loading the battle - that's probably a bad omen, given it was the first game on a fresh install on a new drive. e3: oh poo poo I'm really close to getting the 260, what the poo poo? MT-15 is easy, I need LT-14 (a Platoon mission) and then LT-15 (done it multiple times before!), the HT base cap mission is trivial now (still need 3x my HP bounced), the TD missions just require me to play a bunch of tier 10 TDs, and oh god drat it I still need a Bombardier. Yo goons, since they're forgiving us for game violations on the 8th, anyone want to blatantly and openly rig the personal missions? e4: gently caress it how many edits is too many? 1v1 tournaments for Thursday (Tier 9) and Saturday (Tier 3). One of these awards a Type 59 if you are lucky enough to get into the right group and beat MeatheadMilitia. There is literally no downside to signing up even if you can't show up or don't have the right tanks - there's no penalty for no-showing and no cost to enter. Make a team and confirm your team and get lucky. If you get into Meathead's group and can't show up, give me a shout-out and I'll win yet another goon a Type 59.

Are they ever going to go back and make the air component if this franchise not poo poo? I've been playing Warthunder recently a fair bit, but am again already a bit tired of some of the questionable decisions Gaijin made about its game. I prefer WT Tanks to WoT for sure, but not enough not to ditch the game entirely should WoWP ever be fixed.

Excelsior is an actual good tank, the T14 is adequate, and the Matilda has 102 gold pen and is therefore pretty bad, though any pref 5 can only be so bad.

Excelsior has pretty good front and rear armor but poo poo sides. T14 has all around good trollish armor but the gun is a bit lacking. I'd go with the Excelsior personally.

Good god, some players in this game make me look competent. Top tank in my derpy kv-2 and I quickly notice I'm going to be alone on the flank I headed towards but I decided to just go with it. Only three or four enemy tanks went towards the same flank and a combination of their atrociously poor play and an otherwise worthless pubbie sniping from our base I held and pushed the flank while the rest of my team crushed and swept the other side of the map. You'd think anyone would at least attempt to move out of the way if they saw a big heavy mass of steel like a kv-2 slowly come barrelling down a slope straight at them instead of just calmly sitting there and taking ramming damage to the face. Good job driving that medium tank. Most of the enemy TDs were hiding in a corner usually reserved for arty. There was no arty.

Poil posted:There was no arty. God bless you. I played a game in my WZ-120 on Cliff. Our team had an IS-7 and J100 for tier 10s, their team had an Obj 907. Our J100 started the match saying, "8k damage and 5 kills, any takers?" Both tier 10s went east, while their 907 went E3/E4. Our J100 was the second to last tank to die. 3 shots, 1 hit, 0 pens, 0 damage. They lost to a T30, Conq, and T34 in the east. Their artillery did no damage to the tier 10s.

I noticed when I picked my reward that I also got the other tiers I'd reached; it wasn't a matter of "spend 20 tickets and get this one reward," it was more like "spend 20 tickets and get these four rewards." So heads-up on that.
