I'm grinding the black prince right now and gently caress it so much. Have fun having to do 3 shots to every 1 from a t29 to kill it

Rorac posted:Watching it go through those ridges on the hill was pretty interesting as well. I get the impression that it's going to open up some parts of maps that were either inaccessible or at least a pain in the rear end to get through. Shooting the ears dealt damage for like a year after launch.

God we sucked at the tier 6 stage. Nobody has any armor or hp and we never were able to really adjust to it.

Neither of them *matter* obv but win rate is a really, really lovely metric outside the obvious '47% = bad player ' It's been argued to death but the two months I ran that parser that tracks solo vs platooned w/r I was at something like 61% vs 77%. If I enough to platoon every single game my win rate would be way higher but I wouldn't magically be a better player. Of course it isn't like there's any reasonable demarcations of skill in this lovely game anyway beyond ' isn't complete fuckup'

Jack_tripper posted:moving new players up through the tiers faster is a ridiculously bad idea; I already see plenty of accounts with <3k games making GBS threads up tier 9 games and the constant giveaways are only accelerating it That isn't exactly a bad thing. As it is, the game is far more forgiving at t6-8 than it is at t1-4, which is insane.

xthetenth posted:Well maybe if people trying to get babby's first ten weren't spending literally half their time in a nine tier nine wouldn't be so full of new players. Just go ghetto off tens so they can suck in peace, I'm done spending weeks getting new tens for actual fun game modes. The hosed up thing is that with all of the on track events + bonus XP missions and events the grind is probably a lot better than at launch.

WayAbvPar posted:I am still trying to get through the 'bounce 2x your HP and do 1500 damage' one. Every battle I do one but not the other. Been trying mostly in my KV-220 and Excelsior. It is hard to get the right mix of teammates who will keep me from getting swarmed by 6 tanks while still leaving enough HP for me to collect my damage. If you have a 112 that mission is insanely easy through the first 2 or 3 tiers.

Hellsau posted:160 pen AP is more than enough for the IS-3's front hull, and almost any gun from any tank that's as tall or taller than the IS-3 will autopen the roof. gently caress, the reason I don't play the IS-3 anymore is because an IS-6 snapshot penned the turret face next to the gun twice in a row with AP. The IS-3 is basically armorless frontally - it gets good mobility and good pen in exchange, and has basically infinite side armor against bad players. The tier 8 chinese heavies are all waiting...

Slim Jim Pickens posted:It doesn't have the trolly spaced-armour track siding, it shoots the same gun slower, bad lower plate, bad bloom, worse engine, bad premium round, and no upside. The upside is vastly improved ufp and turret armor and passability meaning you are faster than an is-6 over most terrain. If you ever get a chance to facehug an is-6 in a 112 you won't take a point of damage.

Hellsau posted:Don't play again. The playerbase is worse and they added a clone of the 183 at the top of a mostly poo poo line so even if you want to get all the tier tens, you either need to play a bunch of poor tanks or free XP to a tier ten that is just unplayably awful. the tier 6, 7, 8, and 9 are all really good in that line what the neck?

AlmightyPants posted:Having recently finished the Challenger I can confirm that it is bad. It's not AMX 40 bad, but it's bad enough that it caused me to remember the AMX 40 exists. The Challenger is fast, has no armor, mediocre penetration, a high rate of fire and a turret that turns so slowly that you won't believe it. It's pretty much a Cromwell with a tier higher matchmaking and one of the worst turrets in the game. The challenger is a super-e25 without pref mm. Meaning that at least 2/3 of your matches you are op as poo poo.

saintonan posted:It's never just one thing. G kicked a bunch of people for inactivity, then started recruiting people to fill those slots. Since this is a dying game and G's reputation has been taken down a notch recently with other rival clans getting better, G was faced with either not recruiting or setting the bar for admission lower. They chose the latter, and that reinforced the idea that the G tag might not be the Internet tank nerd status symbol it used to be. That led a couple of high profile streamers to reassess their reason to be in the clan, and decide to leave. G has always had a significant number of antisocial spergs like you find in elite guilds of any online computer game, and for some the current unrest is a decent reason to cut ties with people they don't really like. wat

Atomizer posted:
Both questions can really be answered by the burnout after the campaign/fucktarded 111 grind event. All of the old callers that have been running things in g wanted breaks and nobody good stepped up. The mini campaign thing came along and we essentially had people who hadn't ever called before running every single fight. The inactive were kicked because we were going to just get off the map and do skirmishes or w/e but then a bunch of stuff came up that has prevented me from playing in the last few weeks so I have no idea how that went.
