[MMO] World of Tanks

FTR is no longer by the way.

If you already have a premium tank and you get it again as a reward, regardless of the type of event; you get the gold equivalent right?

What I'm thinking, I'm doing T57 On Track mission, the 250k xp reward is T14 heavy tank.

This weekend is they're doing PAX Party - Choose your reward.
http://worldoftanks.com/en/news/pc-browser/22/pax-party-choose-your-own-reward/

It's 125k XP but if I do the T14 reward... gold? Except, has to be in a heavy tank of 125k XP. So doing combo of T54E1 on down with this won't work.

Sadly, I had T14 at one time, missing out on 3k gold now :/

LOL, he's going to work for someone who's connected to AW. Sad, FTR was a good info site on WoT. Oh well, AW looks nice but i don't see me playing a modern tank game right now. After over 39K games 23 tier 10's and 78 tanks in my garage in almost 4 years i'm getting a little worn out on WoT. Rockstar keeps killing me with pushing GTA 5 for the PC back. I'm still going to play WoT, just not as much as before.

Yes MicroAmp: i have done that two times. One was when the reward was a D-Max another was for a Churchill 3. I had both already and got their gold price in gold. Just be carefull because the time i did the D-Max one it was on sale and got the sale price in gold!

hmmm e3 or 215b now or wait and get the amx30b next patch.

i have about 375k free xp i can burn.

 

[datalink7]

Well, I love my E3. Fun tank. Don't have any experience with the 215b. I only have the 183 version.

By the way, Rita has apparently taken over FTR duties:

[JoJoman88]

Don't know why but i do like Rita, hope she's up to the task.

Thought i was insane with holding on to @260K free XP. Haven't free XP'ed anything in a long time. I was thinking of holding on to it and use it for Warships when it comes out.

 

[Harabec]

I tried Blitz on my Note 3. How on earth do people play with such crappy controls in mobile games?
I guess some younger folks simply become adept at non-intuitive control schemes?

Did they say that would work? I know gold but that's it right? Not even premium time right?

Apparently I had T14 already... Finished T57 On Track and got 1500 gold, PAX will be another 1500. Just need credits to buy T57 Heavy when I get another 30k XP to go.

 

[Tsavo]

Is the Churchill III still a decent tank?

Fun game replay in E-25 (one of two most fun tanks):

Nice. Can't believe that VK didn't finish you off at the end.

E25 is pretty OP. Here's a game I just recently had. Did a casual 3.7k damage.

[Craig234]

3.7k is great damage in the E25.

 

[datalink7]

3.7k is great damage in the E25.

It is. Most I've ever done actually (though I've had a number of 3k+ games).

What I meant by "casual" is that I was just rolling around unspotted most of the time.

I think I'm in love with autoloaders. having my best games yet on the t37. so close to bulldog...

When you killed the 1st KV-1, your total damage, 666... Just saying...
Nice flank on SU-100 too.
I so thought you were dead going against the M4 and VK28, VK missed, arty barely missed... Nice.


Datalink, I thought you were going to run out of ammo when shooting at the hill with all those targets. Nice initial spot at the start too, I'll have to file that in for future use.

Don't forget to login once a day, 50,000 credits for just logging in. Do it 60 times and get various stuff along the way. 61 days, for a bit over 3 million credits.

i never bothered with the autoloader on the t37 or bulldog. the single shot is better in all situations imo.

also once you get the bulldog i'd stay there unless you REALLY want the t49. i wish i kept the bulldog instead of wasting $ on the t49. while it can be fun, it's only maybe 2/10 or 1/10 games where you have lulz in it.

 

[Possessed Freak]

The bulldog's single shot was nerfed to hell. The autoloader is the way to go now.

I kept the t37, bulldog, and the t49. The bulldog is the more reliable. The 49 is more fun. The 37 is for tier 6 stronghold legionnaires.

 

[Ns1]

I just love the way autoloaders play; or rather, the way autoloaders make me play.

 

[microAmp]

You'll love the T57 Heavy. 24s reload, for a total 1600 average damage.

Had a game earlier, 5400 damage, 4 kills, 1153 base XP, still not good enough for Ace Tanker, 1st Class instead. Almost feels like you need a Radley's to get Ace Tanker in this.

The T54E1, 34s reload, same damage output, a bit less penetration, so don't count on 1600 damage but more like 1200 damage, miss or bounce being the culprit.

ah did not know the bulldog's single was nerfed to shit
was it all aspects? aim time, accuracy, reload?

Scroll down for Bulldog
http://ftr.wot-news.com/2015/01/18/0-9-6-supertest-lt-changes/
T91E5 gun is autoloader.
M32 late is single shot one.
Seems to be just reload time.

Anyone play T49 with 152mm and someone blames arty instead of you?

Played 1st game in T49 with 152mm derp gun, I left unimpressed. 300 or so average damage per non penetrating shot. Had 1 penetrating shot on AMX CDC, no surprise, 1000 damage.
3k damage, 4 kills, 1136 base XP... 8000 WN8 game.... 2nd class badge! LOL

They did it for WoWP, why not the ships? Guess i need to look into that. If not, i'm just going to free XP down some future line then.

The PAX event took a little longer than i thought it would but still 1500 gold and a free slot alway worth it. Like you,i already had a T14.

The login event is so worth doing for everybody. I have both vehicles already so the gold will be nice but the cash and other goodies are worth it too. I know people don't like the SU 100Y but man is that thing a beast. It's as big as a house but it is a mini Death Star to most of the tanks you will face. Front of most tier 8's are the only things that bounce the 130 mm shells.

 

[Tsavo]

Any tips on how to play the Churchill 3? I've got 23 matches in it and getting my glacis shoved up my ass 61% of the time.

Horrible tank that misses left and right. At least I can convert it to credits I guess for a KV-1 or something.

 

[JoJoman88]

I haven't played mine much in the last year but really it's up to MM if your going to be able to do much in that tank. If your in tier 5 matches you can rule the match but if your seeing tier 7's and some 6's, your toast. Don't forget the arty as slow as it is, your a mini Maus for them. Good luck!
