Hellsau posted:Hey dudes the capping missions can now also be completed by getting a corresponding amount of defense points, so they are trivially easy. Also you can shoot tanks for LT-15 but they increased the requirement by 1000 so that is kinda rough. Also for the spg missions that stupid loving tracking mission is gone, and the splash multiple tanks mission becomes destroy an enemy in one shot / splash two / splash one kill one / kill two. Meds still have mission to set fire to a higher tier tank, which has troubled me more than the platooning.

Hellsau posted:Why would you voluntarily play a tier ten tank while handicapping yourself? If you're firing AP from the 150mm, just use the 128mm instead. For some reason, I find myself unable to use gold as default, so unless I am driving an autoloader against higher tiers, my ammo is going to be AP until I actually fail to penetrate a few times.

There is also the danger on some maps that if you spot the enemy almost right after the battle starts, the entire team will stop moving and fire widely in the direction of the enemy, stalling your team while the enemy team gets into the best positions.

Fellow autists, as someone who really wants to cut down on WoT but at the same time always seems buy premium time when it runs out, right after a hard grind session before the previous ran out, would buying 6 months premium time make me care less about playing, since the amount of time left would make me not bother about getting value for my money. tldr; do you feel that longer premium time makes you care less about playing?

Unicums and tomatoes seems to be the biggest whiners when you kill them. I once blind shot a unicum on Highway, and he would not stop bitching about how I was a loving camper, even if he was spotted going into a camping spot, was firing gold and had thousands of battles in the Hellcat. It was loving hilarious.

Hellsau posted:lol this campaign is loving hilarious. Yesterday, I got 4700 fame points, and ended up at 2205th place. For some reason, after taking our designated province, my clan still failed it's mission and it looks like WG won't compensate us for a bug that they acknowledge.  If they are going to make us fight for clan fame instead of player fame, they should at least have their poo poo in order.

Haha, my clan have been running just one team throughout the CW but after one hectic evening we managed to secure 30 licences today, which is more than the players who were active, and not only did we managed to not only getting enough fame to stay within top 79 but moved up fifteen places. Even more amused over the fact that if we hadn't gotten the extra 50k fame tonight, we would have ended on position 79.

Hellsau posted:Holy poo poo they vastly overestimated how many people wanted to play the minicampaign on the RU and EU servers. My clan don't really do clan wars, we are just a social bunch of wannabe unicums who enjoys running platoons. We ran 2 teams during the last CW before Christmas, but this time we we could only field one team, we did however manage to get a tank for everyone who was active, but most could not be bothered to make an effort for a tier 8 premium tank. We were not really short on fights with just one team, but our team were hurting over the lack of players since it meant we didn't have a 2nd team for fame farming. Lower fame requirement might be related to that we have more players and thus we have more clans, and they tended to block landings after moving inlands, as a mean to farm fame and keeping the proles from getting uppity, it could be one reason few succeed in getting higher fame. At the same, we are giving our callers brain aneurysms since we are good players who think we know best, so they spent the first week browbeating us into following orders, so it took some time before we got our poo poo together when fighting the more experienced clans. Herding cats would been less stress elevating and it's tradition that the officer in charge of an CW leaves the clan afterwards.

During one match, before the battle started, the enemy said that they wanted to lose so they would rush up the middle and they wanted us to kill them, because they wanted off the map. So they rushed up the middle with their guns pointed behind them, we held mostly held our fire because we was not sure if we would get blamed for this, so they killed our arty and went afk.

Brazil losing the final in the 1950 World Cup traumatized them so badly, that one person killed himself and 3 others died from heart attack at the stadium after the loss, and they compared the trauma to Hiroshima. The coach got away from the stadium dressed as a woman and the poor goal keeper became person non grata and for perpetuity banned from meeting any member of Brazilian national football teams. The Brazilians are nuts.

Mans posted:a lot of people get this idea that they just need to sell their tanks when they unlock the next one and immediatly buy it, like there's this compulsive order that you need to always be grinding. That's compulsion is even more fun when you don't sell tanks but end up keeping most of them because they are not completely unredeemable.

WG EU no longer gives a gently caress, to commemorate the end of WW2 their week long special have no discounts but it does have triple FREE exp and a daily mission to win 40 battles whilst being in top 10 in exchange for coated optics and gearbox. And just to add a topping to the cake of gently caress yous, they announce the event after it had already started.

So WG EU decided to show how little they care, so they repeated the month long WZ-111 mission, but with even less rewards and credits instead of gold for people who had the tank. I was hopeful when they said would streamline the missions in Europe and USA, but at this point it would probably just mean that yours would suck as well.

I mean, I pity anyone who needs to kill three artillery but don't own a Batchat. Those people must be miserable. I managed to find 3 arties in my Type 61 and promptly hit the windows button when I wanted to check that I was on the right mission, leading to me killing 2 whilst the almost finished third was knocked off by a scout who had been camping in our base up to that point.

Besides fleecing money, WGEU hardly gives a drat about anything any more. I suspect a random mission generator and automated profanity banning in chat would eliminate the need for any human oversight, without anybody noticing anything. Unless it's already happened, in which case, kudos WG.

If you try circling arty in the Challenger, every loving shot will go off into the scenery. It's incapable of doing two things at the same time, and even when it just have to do one thing, it will gently caress it up. The tank is so poisonous, that if you ever get a great round in it, you will know it's was not the tank that did it, it was horrible players and the divine intervention of RNGesus that made it possible.

Hellsau posted:Hey EU people, how is the fourth Campaign going for your server? They pushed it back until January for NA, and I'm wondering if there's any funny stuff going on. Usually Campaigns are a total clusterfuck, and CW 2.0 is already a giant nightmare, so I figured maybe it'll be even more of a disaster than the last three Campaigns. My clan did not manage to get enough people interested in running the new CW, so the dozen social and fun players finally got fed up with that the officers focus on recruiting people with skills but no willingness to play with clan mates, and promptly left for clans with teamwork. That means that the clan channel is now a vacant with 4 or 5 players and I have pretty much stopped playing. So personally I would say it's a success, though I have no idea how the actual CW is going. Rincewinds fucked around with this message at 13:39 on Nov 28, 2015 |
