Shaman Tank Spec posted:I think Sergei needs a new dacha or something, because they've been selling all the Forbidden Vehicles on the EU servers recently. EVEN 90 is tech tree gold now, no getting away from it. 432 crew matches the tier X. None of the others in the light line. Gave me the excuse to not have to train a new crew when I kept the t-54 lightweight. I bet we see the 274a around June give or take a week or two.

Just regarding the patch I'm a little mixed on it. Lots of stuff I like and some stuff that needs further refining. Those new AP shells on the Type 5 150mm are pretty funny though. ... I yell about the matchmaker a lot. Pointing out at all the different dumb ways it skews the match. Shaman Tank Spec posted:And it's happening again: There's some of this like alternate set ups that are a good idea, but just needs to be a standard feature and not a grind. Then the field modifications are not only a crazy grind but will break this game even more. Just make prestiging with special camos or whatever. God drat it weegee.

Got another one. I was top player on the team. He was butt hurt I told him to shut up while I was carrying this round. The round in question: Edit: I also caught fire and almost died in order to type shut up at him. God it was worth it.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:At this point who knows, the whole system is so god drat convoluted. What happens to paid crews like the 5 person Girls ünd Panzer crew, when you have a total of four advisor slots? Does the fifth person just disappear into the warp? Does one of them become a crew and the rest advisors? Currently the crew becomes both commander and instructor. Instructor skills are prebaked.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:One thing I super don't like is that if you had a female special crew member as your commander, they just become an advisor now, and the replacement you get is just ... some dude. There's no practical way of keeping the female voice over, as far as I can see? From the crews I've converted it appears to average the gender of your crew to decide whether you get a dude or lady commander. Santa commanding all ladies gave me a female commander for example.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:I am extremely liking the Indien-Panzer. Are the Leopards like it, but better? Or do they pull an E50 again where your fun second line snipers suddenly turn into something else at T9? Same playstyle plus you can run around like a jerk and have more camo. Also they make the Indien feel like total garbage in comparison.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:As someone who initially went up the E50 line, I can't recommend them. The whole idea of a "brawling medium" is kinda dead in the 2021 meta, especially one with German style flat armour panels. So you can't do that, and instead you have to try to be an opportunist ambusher (which autoloaders can do so much better) or a sniper (which apparently the Leopards can do a lot better). Look at this bad opinion. The tier 9 is the best tier for tier in the line though.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:I'm gonna be honest: my opinion is probably just a bit soured by the E50M. I vaguely remember having a good time with the E50. The big thing with the E50M is it's not a massive upgrade to the E 50. It's still an upgrade but a lot of that gets balanced away with the even more tier X it sees. You end up needing to be more careful than you expect.

Once I had the upgraded turret I found the 9cm fine to grind out the 10,5. But I'm one of those jerks that have monster crews and use food like McGavin just mentioned... Need to crew up the PTA again sometime. And drat do I ever love the Leo 1.

Katamari Democracy posted:They had the Captured King Tiger as part of Amazon Prime. Soon after they removed it from the monthly bonus of Prime if you had it you had a small window to purchase the tank for I believe it was 23 dollars. It was a discount that increased the longer you had it from twitch prime. I think that $23 was the cheapest (or close to) that it could get. All I remember is I had max discount but not what the "full" price was.

sushibandit posted:Are the HD-textures worth the ten years it takes this piece of poo poo launcher to download a few hundred extra MB which should really only take all of 10 seconds? Or is there no real appreciable visual difference. The cranked visuals are fantastic. If there's one thing you have to hand weegee it's the the graphics overhaul. Also it's fairly low weight to where even a somewhat decent rig can set stuff pretty high and still get good framerates.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:The matchmaker has been just a nonstop fiesta of Skoda T56s, Object 703vIIs, Skorpions and Progettos for the past week anyway so it doesn't really even feel like anything anymore. gently caress it, Defenders for every 35% winrate tomato, gently caress it. It's happened before, it'll happen again. Might as well get in a good tier 9 or 10 and farm away. Alternatively play those tanks and surprise people who think you're just another idiot in the swarm who just bought one.

Whoever was voicing him was having a blast. Never had any glitches with him. He's extra hilarious in a fast firing tank too. Just constantly screaming. But yeah, CC and Duke were with a couple twitch prime bundles. Hopefully they put a way to get them back in. Duke is really boring though. No energy and most of his lines sound like a new generic american commander if you didn't know he was supposed to be a G.I. Joe character.

^The playstyle thing definitely. But also get the patriot from the bond shop if you collect enough of those. Even if it isn't really OP like it used to be the extremely low shell cost and good pen on top of the premium tank credit bonus means you will always make a bunch of creds if you are hitting anything at all.

sauer kraut posted:Yeah but a tier 8 heavy like that is no fun at all. I'm going to go out on a limb and say the patriot will be easier for most people to play. Especially if they don't have other money makers. Also that doesn't cover the part of the shells being cheap and making losses profitable. Also you aren't the size of the birj khalifa with a tier 5 hull.

sauer kraut posted:The Patriot is a piece of crap without good aim & advanced stabs/rammer for tracking shots; and iron discipline in the hulldown game. I'm just talking about making a profit and warning about the balancing features on the TD. With the shell cost in the heavy you only have to pen half the time give or take to still make credits. You'll note the 'even on a loss' and 'low shell cost' bits being the point. It's by no means meta anymore but you'll have some field mods to fix the derp a bit in no time. If someone's familiar with any american heavies or mediums it's going to be about the same experience mid to close range. And no I'm not going to tell them to spend actual cash on it these days. Diabolical? They're going to need to be good to not blow up in the with the 103 just the same time as the patriot in its own ways with the giant size, no camo, and the fling HE on me roof. The turret front is solid and great gun if they know how to work around that stuff though! Hell, I'm grabbing one as soon as I grind some more bonds probably. Like was said before it's look at the different vehicles and go with what fits one's playstyle in the end, but some tanks will just math out to more credits on average.

A lot of people don't like lights and just bum rush the enemy so they get xp for the initial spotting of the enemy and can quickly go play something else. Also some missions are cleared by initial spotting though the campaign ones usually want you to live/do something else useful.
