oh i'd prefer if gold rounds didn't exist either, you'd have to flank or hit something from the rear and use your brain. but it's here to stay like arty.
I agree. Complaining about people using gold is stupid.
Personally, I do think gold IS stupid and shouldn't be in game (or maybe limited to 5 rounds/match or something). But I fault the developers for that. Can't fault the players for using an available tool.
Just had an awesome game in my JP E100. I start off like a total Donkey as I can't get a handle on my gun depression on the hill in himmelsdorf. But I don't like the hill and I don't usually go that way, I just felt compelled this time since I spawned at the top.
Came down to me, on 111 health, vs an E100, a 183, a Waffles, and a Arty. I took them all down for the win, including finding the arty who decided to go AFK with only 30 seconds left.

I have had this game for two weeks now. Having a blast. So much so I made a micro purchase. It felt right to help support them.
That being said, with more micro purchases coming, what tier II tank shot I look at?
Lots of love for the T18. And I think the panzer II.
Always read that panzer tanks were bad ass. The T18 is an issue for me because they are crazy overpowered. I HATE them in game.
Another thing I want to ask; these weekends, do they invite a lot of AFK people?
All victories are 2x XP and there is a loser bonus. More AFK'ers than I have ever seen.
Yeah. I probably won't buy premium shells. I am buying garage space. And tanks for my stable. Maybe some camp. Some tats.
But who knows.
Ok. So what's your recommendation for level two. Or three.
I would recommend focusing on a single nation, and then choose one of each type of tank, instead of spreading out too much.
I'd kind of set my eyes on what looks like fun for Tiers V/VI so you can work towards that. Tier II doesn't last very long and the games starts getting real fun (IMO) at around Tier V.
Generally, what kind of playstyle do you think you would like.
Do you like to be out in front and tank with heavy armor?
Do you like to do a lot of damage?
Do you like speed and mobility?
Do you like to scout for others?
Do you like being able to relocate to battlefield hotspots?
Do you like sitting back and sniping people and being hidden so they can't see you?
Do you like to click your mouse button occasionally?
I'll have to agree w this. I started out by searching on google "best medium/heavy/spy/TD" etc and of course at each tier it's a dif nation who has the best tank. I'm now at tier II/III but I'm finding it almost impossible to actually have all the "best" tanks at any given tier because I only have 8 slots.
I'd recommend either sticking with one nation and going through their tank tree, or just one type of tank spread across many nations.
I'd recommend the first one so you can play many different types of tanks at once. More fun that way.
So now that I've been playing the game for about a week or so..I'm really starting to like Tank Destroyers. At first I hated them because of the way they played compared to lights or mediums, but I'm kind of digging the way they play.
Currently playing the T18 a lot...Any other recommendations? I read the T18 is a more aggressive tank where some of the others might be a sit back and snipe away kind of style.
a lot of german heavies/mediums are "snipers" as well. The panthers line and tiger series in particular are poor brawlers but are good at 300m+ engagements.
The Jagdtiger series have good armor as well (relatively speaking). Just note that most russian and american TDs are not all that accurate, but they pack a big punch.
What would you consider to be a good Brawler?
Curious. Never thought a tank to be a brawler. At my level its "Our Track is Hit" to being a pile of scrap metal...
So something that I can drive, engage and that can take and trade blows. Maybe having a chance to experience the science of WHAT to hit (Turret track etc.) as opposed to Aim, Close EYES Shoot. Pray. If REALLY lucky try ducking behind that rock.
Except that Mastery Badges are based on your performance relative to other people using the same tank. So even if you're trying to grind through a "terrible" tank, all you have to do is have one match where your XP places you in the top 95% for that particular tank to get MB level 1.I don't see an improvement, I see a "suggestion" to resolve an existing problem, a terrible suggestion at that. There are a lot of shit tanks that can't pen stuff in its own tier, much less the +2 tier tanks it gets matched up to. ESPECIALLY the low tier tanks that newbies grind through.
Or are you actually thinking that low tier tanks should be shooting gold to get mastery? Or maybe AFK through enough battles until you get lucky with the MM to land a master 1 badge to move up a tier?
yeah, great "improvement". I'm glad you don't work for WG or the entire playerbase would be gone in a week.
The Google route got me data from 2012 to 2013...... Even the official forums had data threads.
I will try Yahoo maybe later tonight.
Everything I read states that TD's are CRAZY inaccurate and short sighted. They DONT seem inaccurate with my lowly 1's and 2's....
I just hate them because they OWN me. :whiste:
I like doing damage and sniping. BUT, not a base defender... Scouting? Have yet to find effective team play. Maybe that will come later.
Yeah, I would love to hear "That Bounced" or "ricochet" when speaking to MY tank and not being said about my rounds with my "Pew Pew" guns. . So armor would be nice as well.
