How lovely are the new premium tanks for 9.6?

The biggest improvement I got from a mod was the one that displayed your view distance circle, the render distance square thing and then the max spotting range distance or whatever. Without the mod you can get a good generally feeling about how far you can spot but that mod removes tons of guess work.

Haven't read FTR in months open it up and find the following "Churchill Black Prince is gaining fame amongst some of the staff that plays and players too, apparently the tank is “comfortable” to drive and reliable, despite the slow speed and rather weak caliber gun, it makes it up for the superb accuracy and reload along with good armor layout".

Glad to see people are starting to figure out that the BP is the bestest tank.

3. turn off chat
4. play those two tanks exclusively until you can free xp and buy an e100
5. play e100 forever

I want a Batchat but stuck on the tier 6 tank atm. I absolutely hate playing light tanks even if they are all bullshit right now.

If you don't like the 12t you don't even deserve the Batchat.

I really don't see how one has anything to do with the other. The 12t is a slow, no hp having not too great burst(if you can get all rounds into one target at once then alright its pretty decent) light tank and the batchat is a more zippy, normal hp having awesome burst medium tank.

Please don't troll me like this it is very upsetting.

The t in 12t stands for trash :colbert:

But anyway, I read that there are going to be new french tanks in 9.7? Is this a true thing or just some people guessing?

gently caress it, give all tier 10 tanks 6-8 round auto-loaders, decrease match timer from 15 minutes to 5 minutes. Rename game Counter-Strike: Tanks.

Or just make MM +/-1 instead of +/-2 universally (i.e. give all tanks premium mm).

I don't understand their argument against this. They don't want players to wait too long for a match? Even playing at poo poo hours for the East Coast server I'll get a game in 10-20 seconds right now, saying this change doubles queue times is 20-40 seconds for a game really too long?

Hell I'm playing another game right now where you have to wait 40 seconds before the game returns everyone to the lobby and then re-queues you and not one really cares.

I'm just new back to the game, but what's the story with the new line up to the T57? Is it objectively better than going up through the T69? I hear a lot of people singing the praises of the Bulldog.

T54 is through the T69. I hear american scouts are great but I got into the T69 before the scouts were even a thing.

The first scout is the T37 I think then like T49.

Do you autoloader users still run optics or do you try to maximize your reload time/aim time with vents?

Needed to add a few more because drat that really is their best model so far.

Is free xping all the way past the 13 75 a reasonable thing to do? If I had to free xp one which would you do the 13 75 or the lorraine?
