[MMO] World of Tanks

[VenomXTF]

I have 5 missions left for the 260. They changed all the missions I've already finished/are easy. I really wish they would remove the stupid MT fire mission.

Yeah that's the first one I looked at, and was disappointed to see it was the same :/

I'm about 1/3 through the T55a, but I haven't concentrated on them at all since starting them about 3 weeks ago. I just need to devote a few days to knocking out huge chunks to get through them.

Just about all my mission lists are stuck at the ones that require platoons. Pisses me off to no end that you have to platoon to do missions. Its complete BS. Many players (Such as myself) do not platoon ever, and them forcing us to sucks.

No longer require platoons with 9.8. Platoons can just help complete them.

Woohoo! My client is patching now.

 

[Stuka87]

Ok, so 9.8 has some cool stuff. But the new Battle Results window is worthless. They removed all the data for combined dmg, experience, etc. WTF? Yes you can dig through it on another tab, but it was very nice to have it all right there to see. Also the with premium and without numbers are gone.

"Also the with premium and without numbers are gone."

I like that, it was just advertising premium.

Yeah that bit is ok being gone, but really annoyed at the rest of it being gone.

so the next campaign reward tank is only for the top 1k players.
the next 1.5k players can purchase it for gold.

AND they're still using fame points wtf, fame points are stupid and cause fighting within clans trying to get in battles....ugh

They will never learn. NEVER.

Everything in clanwars in manipulative. When I see 49%ers running around in m60s and the like I have no respect for the contest.

 

[datalink7]

I've never done clan wars, and I've been kinda itching to do it at some point as I'd like some of the special tanks, but when I hear the frustrations sometimes I'm glad I've never been involved

 

[stag3]

it's fun, the largest server war since ever just ended
that was some good fights, sometimes having 5+ a night haha

 

[Craig234]

Over the weekend, they posted 3x training bonus, but only did 2x, when it was pointed out, they changed the ad to 2x instead of changing the bonus to 3x.

 

[stag3]

wow no wonder, i could have swore it said 3x when i checked friday morning, but over the weekend it said 2 so i just figured i read it wrong friday....

Finally got my IS-7,its my first tier 10 and really the only line i have pushed pass tier 8.Casually playing it took quite a while.After the mess the IS-8 was,hoping i could quickly get back into the swing of IS-3 sort of armored gameplay again.IS-8 was quickly sold to fund ammo,rammer and ventilation for the IS-7.

Oddly enough the tanks people say are meh like the IS-8 and Tiger 1 i do incredibly well in cause the top guns are just so good but damn that armor.:twisted:

Giving a bit of thought to the st-i line,mostly cause the gun i enjoyed on the IS-8 is suddenly more fun on a tank that bounces wet toilet paper and about everything else.I have seen my cousin play his and its just wow in comparison to IS-8.

With me working my Tiger 2 and going E75 and quitting the line there,is the IS-4 grind or even the ST-I really even worth considering?I am a big peek a boo aggressive pushing player,it's why grinding pass E75 won-t work for me and its sorta why the IS-8 didn't work lol.

 

[stag3]

so what do you think about the is7?

i've been sitting out this campaign and enjoying playing witcher 3

the st-i is awesome, i kept it, i would play it until you unlock the is-4 but wait until the is-4 gets a buff because it's utter shit right now.
the pen nerf incoming may make the is-4 a little more bouncy

One of the first games i found a spot that covered my front hull but allowed just my turret to show and i held a spot which was being pushed by a pair of E100 and i got 3,330 damage bounced. Suddenly one of them i think switched to HE and went for it lol.I did plenty damage but they got held quite a bit .

Overall i am getting my butt kicked in it,but it seems almost map dependent how well i could do it in,considering everyone knows where to pen it and still learning that angling actually hurts unlike in the is-3.Overall a good tank but still a ways off from being even good in it.

Maybe i will work my E75 grind,then try out the St-i.

Had an amazing game in my IS yesterday...

Awesome game.:thumbsup: Working on buying back my IS-3 and my IS.After i got my IS-7 i got a bit nostalgic wanting the IS-3 back.IS i had sold cause i was certain i would like the T29 more but i thought it was pretty meh.IS-3 was sold to help fund the IS-8. T-34-3 and Tiger 2 are meh tier 8.

 

[skipsneeky2]

Is it wrong that i have found a habit of brawling in a Tiger 1 lately?I have had some of my best games in this thing brawler wise usually as long as the match is tier 7 only.Some tier 9 matches left a surprise or two.It's the 8.8 L/71 with 201 Pen.Loads faster then a 100 mm KV-85 with more pen and accuracy.

Yesterdays best plays included a cocky T29 who was hull down when i popped just a single shot and simply didn't miss his commanders hatch.Another team mate finished him off.Another match by chance i penned the lower plate of a E75 but its something i never did in the IS/T34-3.

 

[MongGrel]

I haven't even bothered in a long time.

It just seems like another Eve type of game these days, after even beta testing EQ when it came out I've given up.

Have done many over the years, last time I had large time I even went berzerk in Rift when it came out, and another.

Investing large amounts of time to play a game is just old these days to me i guess, I used to be one of the biggest chasers of the perfect MMO.

I could probably name two dozen at least I was pretty highly regarded in with different guys, but I couldn't even remember some of the names in some.

 

[MongGrel]

I should get my E-75 out of mothballs these days, but it's rusty enough to be ancient these days I imagine.

Still never got my old IL-10 working again from Warplanes beta and never even have tried getting in warships.

The big IL's at the end of warplanes beta I enjoyed a lot I'll admit, miss my sky whales.

Those big jets were pretty rocking if you had a good tail gunner and attacked shit right with mega guns in the front.

 

[Possessed Freak]

World of Warplanes is god awful compared to warthunder. I have no idea why you would ever play WoWP.

 

[skipsneeky2]

Is this game pretty friendly towards AMD or is it bias towards either Nvidia or AMD?My cousin is looking to upgrade from a gtx650 and its either a cheap 750 ti or a new psu and something like a 370 maybe.

He is using a i3 3220.

 

[Harabec]

It runs well on most anything. Any decent card will do.
