Played a match on Fjords from the north in my IS-2. Pushed around the corner and wiped out what was left of the south team's heavies, and was heading through the town by the water to mop up when I was shot by a Dicker Max from arty island. I laughed in chat at the camping shitlord who didn't fire a shot until the game was decided, and apparently I touched a nerve, since I got the following tear-stained missive via the official forums- quote:WayAbvPar,MajorMalfuncshn has sent you a new personal conversation entitled "Taunting".

Best option is removing tanks and playing something that doesn't slowly kill your will to live.

I did it, guys. I peeked behind the pubbie curtain and I am not sure I will ever be the same. Tier 8 game in my IS-2. My team full of retards sends 1 tank to the west side of Erlenberg, so I hold back and try to cover him as best I can. I get a few shots off and get run over by 4 or 5 tier 8s. Meanwhile our 43% Super Pershing is running his dickhole about how bad I am for dying early. He goes from the mid map and backs literally to the K line and dies last. And of course, he did zero damage. So I had to compliment him on his skills. Below is our full chat. I am still in awe. Full transcript here- http://www.pastebin.ca/2898837

A GIANT PARSNIP posted:The thing that always pissed me off was shitter platoons. Glancing at the wn8's and individual win rates and realizing that your top 3 heavies are all 41% and in a platoon together was the absolute worst way to start a match. Then of course you'd notice them dying right away, and that flank melting down, and oh god damnit I loving hate this stupid game. But if you have XVM on you will know which flank will fold ahead of time, and might be able to do something about it. Even better, you know WHO TO BLAME. Encouraging these idiots to kill themselves, uninstall, remove their genitalia before they pass their substandard genes on, etc is a cheap and entertaining way to pass the time while between arty reloads, for example.

I think Tina Turner wore this thing in Thunderdome. My take on BA- it is really useful for tight shots. I have found several shots on maps like Himmelsdorf that I just couldn't see/visualize in overhead view. It really gives me tunnel vision though, so I only use it when I need it. Overhead view is fine most of the time, and is actually better (at least for me) when trying to hit a moving tank. BA feels like the field of view is distorted and I can't just speed/distance nearly as well. And what is better than one shotting pubbies on a dead run? The tears, oh the glorious, salty tears.

Wait for Prokhorovka/Fiery Salient. If you are a super fast light, you can get to the bushes in the 1 line midway up the edge of the map and sit quietly. Unless another light drives really close, you are invisible. Sit there until the rest of the enemy lights buzzing around in the middle get blowed up and then you can creep down the 1 line from bush to bush until you find a camping TD or heavy. Let your team destroy him. Repeat. When I was doing the KV-220 mission I got something like 8900 spotting damage in a tier 10 game (can't remember which light I was in, but it was before the new ones came out). I get over 4k on that map almost every time unless I decide to shoot at anything (or my retard pubbies won't shoot anything). Malinovka is another good one for passive scouting. Even Steppes in some circumstances (although that is more likely to have you actively scouting and dodging rather than passively scouting). Admittedly it is a lot harder now that there are so many lights in every game, but if you resist the urge to shoot them you can rack it up relatively easily. Of course whenever you get into a light you will see a steady diet of Himmelsdorf, Ensk, and Kharkov, so it might take awhile.

Tahirovic posted:I loving hate you, I've wasted over 4 hours trying to do SPG-15 so far. I often enough manage to be top 3 or even #1 in damage done, but due to retarded spotting mechanics I end up 7th or something stupid on xp earned. So far I've tried it with the T92, M43, T9 brit arty and the LeFH, my other options would be Bishop, GWE100, O261, T10 BC. In one of my T92 games I came within 32xp of making top3 xp, the best LeFH game was 110 damage short of the 2k damage requirement. I addition to Magres' excellent advice, you can game XP a bit by waiting for stationary targets to disappear before shooting them. Then you get full XP for the hit. Or so I have been told, and my cursory checks seem to indicate this is true.

Can we call this one a carry? Bonus points for me mocking our 53 55 for spelling missions wrong and him complaining in all chat that I was too busy correcting grammar to help the team. Double bonus points for completing HT-12 with honors. Nice to finally have a decent game in my E-75. I am almost always in a tier 10 and/or terrible in it, which is frustrating because I know it can do this on a regular basis. I just need to play it better.

I had an eventful evening. I watched my Seahawks give away a Super Bowl, got shitfaced, came home and played tanks. Bought my WTF-100 finally, and apparently also bought $100 worth of gold so I could train the crew properly. Lost a full 2 points off of my WN8. Friends don't let friends tank nearly blackout drunk

So, this weekend's specials (which are terrible, btw) are in celebration of Sherman's birthday. Please use this information to troll the everloving poo poo out of REBEL, ROWDY, and any other shitstain clan that sports Stars and Bars or masturbates to secession proposals. e- Plan Z posted:Is there a time limit on the individual missions. I'm in the mood to get back into the game for the T28, but I don't know if I missed my chance. Any info I can find online of the IMs is mostly just nerds racing to the reports, with omitted, or plain wrong information. They have said there is no limit, but they may move on to new sets of missions a few months down the road. You have lots of time.

One of the early TD missions for the T28 HTC or whatever the gently caress it is called wants you to damage a module...HE is still the best way to do that I think. Might be why some people are shooting it out of tanks you wouldn't expect.

Burt posted:I have been going bat poo poo insane today trying to get my MT "kill 2 mediums" mission and LT "spot an SPG". Every game I take the MT out there are no more than 1 medium on the other team and when I take the LT out, you guessed it, no arty. I have completed the first part of HT-15 at least 3 times now, but I want the extra commendation. Unfortunately this means I am dependent on shitlord pubbies to somehow win a game. I think I will give up until I save up for the E-100. Have done it twice in an E-75 and once in a T57, but I think it would be relatively easy in a 100.

Reserved for the guys who camp base and complain about losing, or shitlers who spend the whole match stat whining, idiot TDs who shoot allies more than enemies, etc. I prefer to keep my options open. Last night I complained that our top tank was a 286 WN8 shitlord/bot/4 year old/Down's sufferer. Our 53 55 told me to quit whining, and didn't shut up, so I one shot him in my 1551. We were down 0-6 at the time and on the way to getting rolled, so I thought I would take out some frustrations. His indignant tears were all I could hope for. I logged off in frustration after that (I think I ended up with a win rate of around 30% for the day...all my teams were like this one), so I don't know if he tried to PM me afterwards to threaten me with bans or whatever pubbies imagine will happen when they file a support ticket* *Hint- nothing. They slavishly stick to the automated system, so if you aren't auto-banned or blue already, you are good to murder any deserving candidates. Doubly so if you are in arty, since those shells can go anywhere

*Creates multiple missions that require passive spotting* *Runs maps 90% of the time that makes this impossible* *Is WG* Seriously, gently caress this poo poo. Every loving map is close quarters and literally impossible to spot tanks before they spot me no matter what my view range. I am on the T28HC missions now and can't even imagine what the requirements will be for the last tank. "Spot 16 tanks without leaving your garage" would be my guess.

Holy loving poo poo, pubbies are just unbelievably stupid. Northwest, South spawn in my FV304. I am too busy clicking the map and accidentally run into a T67, doing 10 hp of damage to myself and none to him (because he stopped like a retard, but that is besides the point). I drive past and get set up down the hill. He bitches about my harmless ram in chat and then takes a run at me down the hill, ramming me for 40 points. Instead of calling that good, he starts backing up to do it again. So I blew him up. He spent the rest of the game just howling about it. I told him not to pick fights he can't win. But WGA is going to send me a warning, because *reasons*. Honestly...what the everloving gently caress? Yes, I rammed him accidentally, and did no damage (except to his fragile psyche). I seriously don't understand
