Looks like I'll be taking another break from WoT. I am about to disconnect my AT&T internet and complete my move into town. Mediacom says that the earliest they can have a tech come by for my internet service is 3 WEEKS. Unless they find something else, I guess I'll see you guys in a few weeks. I wish I had a business that could charge what the cable and sat guys do, and then tell you... oh now we cant have a guy come by your house and reconnect the COAX thats up the pole or in the box for Several weeks and people would accept it. |

LARRY Ok i see what your talking about Nice that rally so far liking it 3 wins 1 loss i should be able to pull off most of the wins in the next 2 days. 1/3rd of the way to BIA for the crew already. and Dat tank can drift like a mofo lol  Yea the BIA may be the way to go but I went with the instant gratification... Mentor on the Commander.... he doesnt NEED any of the skills and at least this way I may be able to train the crew faster Driver skills .... Smooth ride Gunner skills ...... Snap shot Radio doesnt matter so I went view range just for the tank I will put it in next Loader I went with camo ditto above 30 wins 80% on my crew doh Running vents, rammer, Vstab you can run preme stuff but it doesnt change much.... I ran Fuel and still didnt see a huge improvement . its FUN though. |

Also on the rally stuff you need to run in a platoon.
If you run in a platoon it really increases your winnings considerably when you do 750 damage which isnt that difficult . OH and dont forget to check the crew training button |

I'll be the first one to admit I suck at WOT, but this was a fun fluke with the Otsu. Ironically, it's the highest number of kills I've ever gotten - 8. Anyway, if you care to watch.http://wotreplays.com/site/1204916#report

So I took the plunge and got the Chinese 113... so far not impressed. I can see why you don't see many of them. It is a very difficult tank to play.

I see that there's a M24 Chaffee sport in the garage. Since the crew is fully trained, could I drop the less than 100% (commander is at 87% and the rest of the crew is at 96%) existing crew on the Chaffee I have now and put them in there without having to pay for retraining? I can free XP to the T37, can I, or should I retrain that crew for that?

Pulled down 33,000 experience I can later use for some of the higher tier guns and things I need to research. It takes a bit of practice to get the auto-aim to "lock on" on the first stretch before the turn, there are a lot of obstacles in the way. Once your locked on just keep the trigger pressed the whole time and hope for the best . We found that getting to the cap first usually resulted in a win for your team. Jumping over to the opponents side of the track if they are a head of you and auto-aiming their ass as you run behind them worked as well. Lastly if you wreck, get stuck or otherwise screw something up and get left behind you can stop at the top of the bridge and get shots on the cap. You can't hit the whole cap but you can at least try to get a few rounds in to reset rather than be driving further down the course trying to reach the cap and out of the fight. The cap clock goes really fast.

Last night was frustrating. I went 13/16 (great, right?) but in the majority of my matches I was low tier in a heavy and either trying to chase my teammates to club the baby seals, or trying to keep myself from being vaporized by a Tier X heavy/TD/Artillery.

switch to gold when you get in cap, and autoaim Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
you can run preme stuff but it doesnt change much.... Believe it or not I finished this thing last night and never ran a single round of gold. I probably should have carried like 10 but I wanted to make the credits ended up making over 300K plus the bonus at the end of 500K Crew is 43 or 46% on the second skill if you dont want the XP applied to the crew uncheck acc crew training before you finsh (I would rather have the crew trained) as a Pubbie I tried to run either 1st or last. Autoaim zoom out, concentrate on driving FIRST then when the reticle shows youll hit (certain parts of the map) SHOOT and SHOOT A LOT sometimes I would jump to their side and shoot them all the way to cap sometimes I wouldnt In toons it all changes depending on the makeup of the opposite toon and what your guys wanna do. for us most of the time it was RUN LIKE HELL to their cap and shoot as you could as a general rule I would have between 350 and 600 if I stayed on my side and around a K if I jumped sides before we got to cap then at cap all hell breaks loose and I did as much ramming as shooting. had two matches where we killed everyone on the way to cap (they all jumped on our side and thought they would just kill us on the way to cap..... Big mistake for them) By the end it was more common for everyone to end up at cap in a brawl had several against people that simply couldnt keep up driving wise where we just ran to cap and it was over. Its not considered a premi tank so you cant switch crews from what I saw |

Enemy was hitting me like they were shooting lasers, and I was hitting 1 in 7, maybe, right clicking like mad with red outlines, but no auto aim lock at all. I'll try again today. What do you guys suppose is going to happen to these crews when the event is over? The last couple were single crewed tanks, and when the event ended, their specialties switched to whichever tier 1 tank the appropriate country ran. But the Cunningham has a crew of 2, so what happens to the rest of the guys? |
