[MMO] World of Tanks

[chimaxi83]

They could seriously be AFK. Like taking a crap, taking a phone call, etc.

Sometimes I want to play but I have to take a phone call or something.

What kind of dumbass joins a match and then leaves to take a crap? Is that the secret to becoming a terrible red?

I report them as AFK, esp. if they led to a (close) loss. It's not nice to have such teammates literally cr*pping on other's stats.

ugh why did they start the event on thursday instead of friday? i totally missed out on a days worth of 5x now damnit

Question I have enjoyed the T-18 but want to try to go to tier three what would be another good tank that has good mobility can take a hit and can do good damage.

I have considered buying some gold and getting the T-26E i believe it is called but saw on youtube it got nerfed kinda bad so not sure it is worth it.

There are not OP tanks in every tier of every nation...

I understand that I wasn't looking for something that was way over powered.
The T-18 is a tough little tank. it has it's draw back too like if i have a light assault on my tail and i cant kill him before he gets to me he can circle around me and kill me easy because no turret and slow turn speed.

I just was looking for something that was fast could take a few hits, has a turret and could do some good damage.
this was for tier 3, 4 or 5. I will work my way there just want a route to head to.

The Cromwell Medium Tier VI is pretty fun to play. Decent damage and armor and very fast. Good for scouting when you play higher Tiers.

....??

we talking about the same cromwell that can get penned by a tier 3 gun?

 

[grimed]

yea i pretty much used it as a scout killer exclusively, that's how i got thru the grind.
i suggest never moving onto the comet tho as it has the same shitty gun and same top engine lmao

I actually like the comet. For some reason it feels more manuverable, whereas the cromwell drives like a truck of sorts. Maybe because of the tracks.

Also the gun is a TINY bit better and has better accuracy and soft stats. its a great brawler and the turret is surprisingly bouncy at times.

 

[stag3]

felt a lot slower to me compared to the cromwell, the cromwell was actually fun
the comet was worse in every way to me since everyone else you're facing is gonna have an even larger gun (tier 9)

 

[PowerYoga]

slower for sure (top speed is 50), but it felt more agile for brawling.

But yeah, I do use a lot of APCRs in that thing...

 

[stag3]

haha that must get spendy since it's such a low damage but high dpm gun

the t54 firing heat costs me a good 5-60k per game

the rounds are a bit cheaper since it's a low tier gun, but I only shoot APCRs when I can't get flanking shots in and absolutely need to pen the front of something hard.... Tier 9s just shrug that stuff off though even from the side, so I don't bother engaging t9s unless they're wrestling with someone else.

Just a quick question, is anyone playing the W0T beta on the 360?

I will never own a console, so that would be a no.

 

[QuikWgn]

I hear you. I played on the PC but due to some issues I can't effectively operate a keyboard and mouse efficiently enough to play WoT on the PC anymore. I'm on 5000+ games on the 360 since the last account wipe in August. Not a lot of games by PC standards I know, but not bad for 4 months.

How is it? I have the beta installed too, but the only one who has played it is my son, and only a few games at that.

The tech trees have been changed to packaged upgrades instead, crews are on with limited functionality (no accelerated training on elite tanks and no perks yet), and they are missing some US and German armor (like most of the turreted TD's and upper tier lights) and there are currently British heavy tanks and TD's only with more to come prior to launch. Current maps are sand river, malinovka, mines, cliff, westfield, mountain pass, and province (which is tier III and below only). Controller support is good and 3 man platoons are implemented, and friendly fire is currently limited to HE splash damage.

I currently have the tier X Germans (JP E-100, E-50M, and E-100) plus I kept my Tier IX JadgTiger. I have my tier X Americans (T110E3, T110E5, and M48 Patton), plus I kept my tier IX M46 Patton, M103, and my M41 arty. And lastly the Tier VII Black Prince and the tier VIII AT-15 on the British side. There are a couple relatively big clans (mine is around 150 members and I command a 25 man company).

Really the biggest drawback is that the number of people on the 360 using mics is a lot lower than on the PC, so platooning and good communication is a must. We are currently somewhere between the 8.6 and 8.7 patch versions.

Right now the *hot* gold tank to play is the E-25. The damn thing is just a blast to play. Finally, a fixed gun TD that I like. Its small. Hides well. Good speed. And the gun fires quick at just 2.59 seconds for reload time. And if you really want to piss people off load gold into it and go to town on them. Can't wait to see what it does with crew trained in BIA.

Tanks had me frustrated because I was teamkilled -_-

Sometimes you can't hold it in.

 

[QuikWgn]

Aren't there Depends available in the consumables or a porta-potty in the equipment list? *ROFL*

 

[Skott]

If all they were doing is going to the bathroom I could forgive them. I'm of the opinion most AFKers are not there for other reasons than going to the bathroom.
