Everyone on the team clustering up in one corner of the map seems to be a popular 'strategy' in 90% of Random Battles on the EU cluster lately, regardless of vehicle type. And I mean everyone. Nashorn rolling in to headbutt a T-150, that sort of thing.

Unable to play for the foreseeable future but I need to know how "balanced" the Swedish line is. Is it actually workable or have WG worked their Powercreep magic again and turned the high tiers into absolute loving utter team-melting monsters en masse?

Acing the Toldi was fun, not least because it required very little base xp. Still not played the L-60 though, just looking at the gun stats makes me want to pretend I don't even have it.

What is it about the valley on Lakeville being such a massive retard-magnet? Why does my team keep rushing into the most worthless, slowest place on the map like a pack of spastics during Encounter battles while the enemy goes for the town and gets an easy win? Hair-tearingly frustrating stuff.

And then I somehow get a Mark of Excellence on the AMX M4 45. This is a tank which does everything possible to frustrate and disappoint me at every turn while delivering a laughable 44% WR in it, yet here I am with a loving white band around the barrel. The average damage on this thing must be absolutely pathetic.

L-Boned posted:50K isn't that bad. Just buy the Skorp G and rape pubbies. I freaking love that tank. I throw on +50% creds and 100K is guaranteed every match. Not available on EU server because *reasons*. I have more than enough vehicles which are theoretically capable of making the mission as easy as breathing, but RNG and lovely MM just seems to have a field day in delaying the process and making it as miserable as possible.

gently caress it, just drilled away for the 50k damage with the IS-2 and Löwe. Took longer than it should have but at least it's done, and I got an absolute shitload of credits with it.

As for this marathon, it's making the general playerbase even worse at co-ordination and teamplay, something which shouldn't even be possible when it comes to pubbies.

Common Test is live, and it's largely about as fun as pulling your loving toenails out with your teeth (as usual). The changes to Artillery are nice though, far more consistent (and dare I say rewarding) to play.

I know it's a terrible idea and generally only ever works against me, but I'm one of those idiots that goes right on ahead and plays new vehicles without immediately spending free xp on the top modules, because in most cases you can at least mount previously unlocked modules which aren't utter poo poo for the tier and grind the rest out without going completely insane in the process. Then I got to the ARL V39. gently caress.

Barry posted:I'm genuinely curious what it takes to pitch a 39% WR. We've had the discussion before and general consensus is that if you're at ~43%, you're a detriment to your team and would just generally be better off sitting in spawn doing nothing. What does it take to get 3% below even that?

My Tiger I is cursed; close to 300 games and I can still only achieve 1st Class Edit: And with the recent mini-buff I'm feeling a lot less hostile toward the VK45.02 A. Now that it has half-decent gun depression matching the Tiger II and doesn't have a UFP effectively made of butter for a Tier VIII HT, I can comfortably bait and juke all those dumbass IS-3 players into firing worthless shots which bounce away harmlessly in this frequent game of corridors.
