I'm not sure how I feel about the Sherman Firefly, has anyone found it worth keeping? Edit: I'm probably asking this question prematurely, I don't have the top gun on it installed yet, still need the turret. RandomPauI fucked around with this message at 23:01 on May 3, 2015 |

Does anyone have any idea how the May the 4th missions work?

# ¿ May 5, 2015 00:06 |
I finished the first mission in an arty where I got a medal. I forgot to write down the details before transferring over to USA East. The second secret mission is rumored to involve a light tank, the third secret mission is rumored to involve a heavy, and there's supposed to be a fourth mission involving a td. v0v.

These are supposed to be the conditions for the 4th mission. Mission: That's No Moon Restrictions: Tier IV or Higher Once Per Account Conditions: Destroy an SPG Mission: Those are the droids I was looking for Restrictions: Tier IV or Higher Once Per Account Conditions: Spot 2 or more vehicles in a single battle Mission: The Hutt Restrictions: Tier IV or Higher Once Per Account Must be in a Heavy Tank Conditions: Win

Agrajag posted:I don't even know how someone finds the time to play over 40k games. I've been playing since 2011, I think, and I've only racked up 10k played. Just 30k games here but I can add my own story. I can safely say a lot of mine were played a few years ago between 11 pm and 6 am when my insomnia was at its worst. At least half my light tank battles during that time were also death races where the goal was to see how far I could get around the map before dying. The thing that has me confused is how anyone have have stats below 47% without being a bot.

Okay, for the Cent 1 I know its got a good gun, the front of the turret is the bounciest part, it's got decent mobility. But I'm not sure if I should generally, say, stay back and support the heavies, stay towards the front, etc. How should I be playing this tank?

CitizenKain posted:Do not get near things at all with your Cent. You have a frontal ammo rack, and lots of other bad module placement at the front. Stay around mid range, the Cent's gun takes some time to aim in and likes to throw shots if not aimed in. Ideally, find a nice hill somewhere and camp your rear end behind it. Thanks, I'll give that a go.

You can buy the jagtiger code from http://www.kinguin.net/product/116876/world-of-tanks-1250-gold-8-8-cm-pak-43-jagdtiger-tank-7-days-premium-bonus-code/ which should give you enough gold to buy a mid-tier medium in addition to the tank and the premium. I'm personally hoping they don't run out of codes before the fifth.

I'm making another try hard effort at tanks. For starters I've been paying more attention to my surroundings, asking for advice, and watching the tank guide youtubes by Quickbaby and Mighty Jingles. Recently I decided to platoon more. Even though I'm doing more damage, surviving more, and getting more kills, my winrate for the month is plunging. I'd hate to stop grinding tiers 8 and 9 but those are where I see the most losses. Would it be better to just try to push forward with the high tier tanks and just accept there'll be a harsh learning curve or would it be better to focus on lower tiered tanks and get good at them before moving on? What are some other things I can do to get better?

Currently my antenna to my wireless card is sitting on top of a police issued flash light, on an empty Card Against Humanity™ box, on a cologne box, on an art history textbook on top of my desk. It helped a little but it looks super retarded. You might want to try a wireless repeater. Also, does your router broadcast in the wireless AC format?

I finished the TD mission last night and I'm back to having under 100 tanks in the garage. To celebrate I bought an A-44. If I'm going to be perfectly honest, I bought the A-44 before clearing out the garage, but it doesn't matter. I like it so far. It's fast like a medium, has a gun like a TD, and it has a female commander.

Hellsau posted:Can I get some confirmation on that? Because getting 12k damage done/taken seems kinda easy. I wasn't able to finish HT 15 in domination mode. I only played the heavy tanks and garnered 7k in damage dealt. Maybe it'd work if the player stuck to the same tank throughout the battle?

Th A45 mission looks like another one I'll wind up skipping. That's too bad, I could have used another British heavy tank to free up space in my barracks.

I wonder if I'll grind enough keys to make it worth it to buy any remaining keys balance and then the tank. As dumb an idea as that sounds like.

This sucks. You have to play every day to get the 15kxp for the free tier 7 tank. I thought we could play extra some days to make up the difference. I probably will still try this because my life right now has big chunks of open time, but still. On a related note, I hope the tank doesn't come with a crew. I have a crew in need of a home.

I've got a similar dilemma Cardiac. I have three heavies worth of crews for Soviet tanks and once I finish the IS-8 grind it'll be four heavies worth. I can rebuy the KV-1, KV-85, T-150, IS, KV-3, or IS-3. I don't see a point to buying any of them though since I have so many premium Soviet heavies. One option is buying the KV-4. Another option is eventually buying an SU-122-44 or a T-54 mod 1 next month and retraining the crews. Speaking of retraining I could retrain them to the T-54 lightweight or to the Soviet arty. How is the T-54 Lightweight?

The top three most played tanks were the Church III followed by the Black Prince and the T30. My win rate for the past few months has increased to 48.74% but my overall win rate barely budged. Most of the stats didn't move that high actually. The one thing that'll be a constant no matter how much I improve is declining average spotting. I no longer spend hours on end doing scouting death races.

Do I really want to try to grind the brit heavy line to get the presumably free tier 8 tank? How much time is left to grind the XP? The answers are yes for now, and not enough time because I've been slacking off and avoiding playing the line.

Yeah, I was thinking of the medium line. The worst part is I went back and ninja edited it to heavy thinking that I had to have had it wrong. Also, I can't sleep, which means now is perfect to kill time with tanks. It's also the perfect time for them to do their weekly scheduled maintenance. Sigh.
