FInally got Prokorovka in my 13 90, sat in a bush in the east side of the map, LT-15 complete. Engaging gameplay.

Got mine today too, did SPG-15 instead because my map rotation has been horrid today.

Meh.

Old evaluations were great Vork! I mean I got in somehow *coughPrimelawcough*, clearly the system was working as intended.

Man I didn't even have to platoon with anyone when I joined. Gabe basically said you have good stats and decent tier 10 stats, you're in! Note this was right after the war we had with Otter while we were in CRABS. Thankfully I'm sort of a human being and not a scumbag like some people from crabs.

Lol if you think the Indien Panzer is gonna fun. That gun has some horrid handling. I sold mine about a year and half ago since I needed credits, but I'm just gonna grind for the Leopard PTA through the RU 251 instead.

i got through the panther ii already, this gun handling's gonna be a dream

Panther 2 had good armor that allowed you aim while the indien does not. That's what killed me the most about it, since by the time you fully aim in you've already been shot two times

That was Tioga, in fact.

OTTER got what they deserved and it was entirely predictable.

e: I want to get into a clan that does a lot of strongholds because strongholds are actually fun and rewarding. Is FOXEY still incredibly irritating? I did a tournament with BULBA people and I can't take that level of anime. Anything more obnoxious than NTR is just unbearable.

We do a lot of strongholds but I'm not letting you in because you'll kill it :colbert:

Not going to confirm or deny using hedge clipper in the past for FPS boost because ESPORTS, but red dot is a pretty scummy thing to use.

To be fair, red dot to finish the kill 2 arties mission while in an arty is legit. Because gently caress arty.

Everyone knows that the Comet is the true bastion of op tanks.

Hellsau posted:

Pretty much this. Shoot enemies more than they shoot you.

Most of my tier sevens have absurdly high winrates and much of this poo poo on the SU100M1 is just caused by trying to play during events and the variance that comes with that but there have been way too many games I would have easily won with a Comet or VK3002D or literally any tier seven heavy that I just couldn't do in the SU100M1

It's been a while since I ground it, but my Su-100M1 stats were pretty great. But yeah it's super underwhelming compared to pretty much any other tier 7 TD except the horrid St. Emil.

Broke my camo to take an unlikely shot on the enemy Cromwell's butt, immediately got a fire, and then played the rest of the game attempting to get the other. Eventualyl a T29 broadsided me and finally I got the right amount of coinflips in my favor. Cromwell B with Deadeye, mate.

Also gently caress the SU100-M1, it's a bad tank. gently caress the Panther 2, it is close to bad and if it isn't just bad, it's on the low end of the mediocre scale. Not being good at anything is a crime.

I thought the Panther 2 was absolutely amazing.

I like it so far. Yeah the pen is crap, but I got used to it since I ground out the VK3601H a long time ago with the same gun. It fires pretty fast, but the aim bloom isn't very good. I did 2.4k damage in the tier 8 game I played in it earlier though. Had to fire pure APCR in that match though.

Well, mods that laser you when your being aimed at, even if you haven't detected the bro doing the aiming, or give you the other guys reload cool down sure as hell seem like they'd make the game way loving easier than the one I'm playing now.

And if you and I are equally skilled and you have those installed and I don't, I'm guessing you will 70% of the time.

Reload timers really aren't that big of a deal since I generally know the reload of each tank with rammer and stuff since I've actually played most of those tanks myself. I always assume I'm being shot at anyways thanks to the virtue of being purple anyways. The same can be said of most people at 60% winrate or more.

The only mod I really concede on being ridiculous is the broken objects mod, which is hilariously hacky and overpowered.

Everything is inferior to Hellsau's Hax Pax� anyways.

The thing is I don't have a KV-2, I have it unlocked but never really played around with it. Is the S-51 good enough as an arty that I don't claw out my eyes?

It has a monster of a gun for a tier 7 artillery, but it comes with the whole terrible reload and stuff. Has very little gun traverse, but it's not horribly inaccurate for an arty. So even if you get bottom tier, you can still hurt lots of things as long as your pubbies don't die fast.

Well I finally got x3 hp bounced in my IS-6. I literally stood still in E6 on the side of the hill and let a T32, VK3001P, and Rudy shoot me until they finally did enough to me. Rudy started shooting HE at me too.

Tank is pretty good if you're actually good though. A bit slow climbing hills and such, but it has a nice top speed on flat ground. Gun handling seems to be pretty alright as well.

Yeah, I had to check out the stats on Status Report, and they were unimpressive. How about the M41/90, then? Primelaw seems to like it, and that tells us nothing about whether or not a tank is actually good. Seems OK, though, if you like scouts.

Hey man, the T-34/100 is also a superb tank, not my fault that everyone else is bad in it. Also the A-44 owns.
