i am doing better but i am doing worse

i am doing better but i am doing worse

My WN8 has been climbing steady every month, however my win rate has been at a stand still for the past 3 months. I was able to boost it up about 2.0% in a month or so and now I have just been hovering at the same number with no real progress. Not sure what I am doing wrong, maybe platooning might break that hold free.

ah i guess i uninstalled it when i installed my drivers cuz i don't see it anywhere hahaha

It comes with the catalyst suite of stuff I think. If you use beta drivers you might not see it getting installed. I think you can also uncheck it if you do custom install but don't quote me on that.

monday will be a great grinding day, 2x xp for every battle if you get 2 penetrating shots.

I'm getting low FPS on my rig, even on low settings 1920x1200. When I first enter the map it shows 1-2 fps, during battles I've seen it go as high as 30-33. Driver issue or something else? I've got the 15.4 Betas installed for my 290X.

Jesus Christ, a difference of .6% of wn8 and a difference of .08% win rate. Overly dramatic much?

 

[gammaray]

now Jesus Christ is part of World of tanks. Maybe he can transform all my regular AP into APCR for free !

Ppl are so over-reacting when I fire HE shells in my E100 in a city map. As soon as I saw a M103 showed his turret thru a pile of rubble I fired an HE shell for 300+ damage, and the 103 asked me "do you know you are firing HE?", and a teammate called me idiot. I think HE is an effective way to deal with hull-down tier 9/10 and side-scrapers in city maps, and switch to AP or prem shells when I expect a brawl. I ended up with the most damages in my team with 3.3k while blocking 3.1k damages. The other E100 did 2.3k damage and the E4 did only 1.5k damage for firing only AP, and of course we lost.

Using it wisely is great stuff. But I actually do laugh at people who shoot my maus with HE when it is only hitting for 100 damage each shot. They will run out of ammo long before I die.

2200 dmg in KV-85 is only good for 28% 1st MoE.

2200 dmg in KV-85 is only good for 28% 1st MoE.

You have to get enough games in it first. It adds in a certain amount of "0" damage games. So it takes like the last 100 games average or something. But if you don't have 100 games yet, every game you are short is a "0 damage" game.

Not exactly how it works but gives you a rough estimate of why 2200 average damage is only 28%.

 

[Tsavo]

Ahh, ok.

It's primarily a new tank...40ish battles I think.

I was pinned down by a Tiger 1 and a T-29. I was 65% health, and they were nearly full...80ish %. I wonder if they felt stupid getting beat by a KV-85 when all they had to do was flank me. Misfortune favors cowardice, it seems.

Had a couple of really bad games, then this happened:

lol, yeah much. the graphic is pretty dramatic :awe: i just felt like whining a bit

Nice game. The T54E1 can be a beast, though it is rare to get a steel wall in it.

 

[biostud]

I had a fun kill, where I while loading rammed a 150 hp mt-25 for 100hp, then pushed him over a cliff where he got stuck, and then I rammed him three more times for the last 50 hp. Then the load was finished and I killed a kv-13 below the cliff.

 

[stag3]

so tired from yesterday, was able to grind 75k closer to the amx 30b from the 30 prototype.

the T-54 Lightweight is super fun, sold the LTTB and moved the crew over this weekend since it was 50% off crew retraining. getting close to the 3rd skill on it.
i did have to use gold on an e100 and vk4502b's rear however to pen

"Idiot!"
"Lemming!"
"Moron!"
"Tomato!"

Feel better?

:biggrin:

 

[stag3]

ah that sucks, the 2x xp on monday was killer

"This team $#%ing sucks! Your all f$@*&$ loosers!" ...usually said by the guy with the smallest contribution to the match.

I managed to walk out of this weekend with better stats than when I started. The muppet train wasn't as bad Monday night as the regular weekend days.

I did have a few WTF teams. One match, went 0:6 before I even got into position on my KV85. Less than a minute. 0:8 as I reached for the escape key to head to garage.

Also, getting kind of tired of seeing high PR people with 20k+ battles not being able to play the game.

 

[datalink7]

Had more games in the T-54 First Prototype. Finally got a few bad games in it, so my stats went down somewhat, but still feel that (after 40 games) it is a really powerful machine.

lol .. IS-2 | 1 Game | 1 Loss | 4 kills | 3521 dmg | 8996 WIN8 :ninja:

Heh, yeah. Just tried it out once and had an incredible game in it. Like 7 kills. My team was terribad though so I lost it. Even more frustrating is that I should have won and got a Pools. I hit a ST Emil on 310 hit points for 305... my average damage is 390. That's near a min roll. Because of that, he killed me. If I had killed him, there were only two tomato artillery left that I'm sure I could have killed. Oh well.

By the way everyone, 9.8 is out. Some interesting changes to the personal missions. No more platoon missions! You can complete them on your own, which is great. However, they still have platoon elements. So platoon mates can help out with those missions still, but aren't required (though, at higher levels, will probably be required due to the difficulty).

Also, some other changes. Like light tank 15 adding the damage you do yourself into the total damage needed (so not JUST spotting damage).
