I hid most of the time, but managed to shoot a Hetzer that was distracted by a team mate.  I shot him about 8 times with Gold, did not pen him at all.

Near the end of the game, I went into their backfield and spotted their arty.  I shot him twice, neither penned him.  Then I was one-shotted.

Why does WOT put you in games where you cannot possibly do any damage to other tanks?  What a waste of time.

If it makes you feel any better I bounced a GW Tiger from a straight shot from my bat chat twice in a row.  Not some goofy angle but straight on...tell me how that works?

Guys...I'm telling you...you need to have a T-46 in the garage for general seal clubbing.  Picked up my 4th Ace badge in it today.  the 45mm gun has great pen and decent damage.

Same here but I only played one game with it.  

JB convinced me to pick it up and it's pretty fun.  The 45mm VT-42 is a sweet gun.

I wouldn't sweat it.  You have to get multiple reports and they have a life span I believe. I got reported for being a bot because I found a good place to shoot near the spawn and was too busy killing to chat.

I just bought KV2 also.  I don't know why waited so long.  At tier 6, it is very over powering.  Watching out for the mediums closing on you and doing circle of death.  Have a friend near by to support you.
In tier 8, be the support for distance while other tier 8  heavies engage.

So far, I just can't believe how accurate that 152mm gun is.

See, what people don't know is that manic Moran helped write the code for MM. So, naturally, WG got both.

Good work!  I like the mod you have that shows tank WR in the carousel.  What is it?  I might have to look at the OMC installer to see if it is in there.

WOW...I'm surprised to hear it actually did something.  On a given night I usually spend all 10 of my "complaints" reporting people for BOT / AFK.  I didn't figure it actually did anything other that make me feel better.

Hush now About how accurate the 152 MM is please i do not want it known why i am making Accurate and very deadly 400 plus meter kill shots Best 1 so far was 499 meters,

With out the GLD or Vents just rammer.

I am finding out Tier 8's do not like losing 400 plus damage from a KV2 152 mm gun.

Splash damage is nice.

Grabbed the KV2 today while it was on sale for 640 K a bargain at that price.

Made 10K exp on the KV2 today i might just be just going for that S51 arty yet.

Easiest grind in the game for the s51. Simply because the kv2 is so much fun. Glad you got it and like it, cat. Beware though, soon you will run out of dissidents to sacrifice and Stalin will no longer reach up from the depths hell and guide your rounds to target.

they changed it to all mediums all the time.

 




took out a lot of bushes.





reduced camo on TDs.





Hellcat is insanely under-everythinged.





There is a new US light tank line of T37/M41 bulldog that is insanely fun.




I don't remember if you played much arty, but there is a new 1st person arty view that is insane.

They still have a macro that when you are on a shit hot streak, promptly puts you in your place and makes sure you won't win.

Combined 2 for fucking 14 in my KV1 and KV220 tonight.  Better than 1/2 of those games we were up at some point only to have the team piss it completely away.  Amazing how it is pre-determined which tanks are winners and losers for a given session.  Even had a draw in the KV220 when we were up 10-5.  Some dill rod 200 WN8 in a M2 light tank snuck back to our cap and was able to cap within the time to get the draw.  Nobody could figure out how to go back and kill him.

Didn't matter what I did...was not going to win in either tank.  And because I'm a stubborn SOB I pushed it and wrecked my win rate for both.  Oh well...I finally won in my 8th game on each of them.... PERSISTANCE PAYS OFF!!!!  

This battle it was down to me vs. 7 tanks.  Killed 5 of them but alas they were able to cap it out before I could get back.

Holy mother of God, what the hell is going on out there? In the last two weeks my w/r has gone from 51 to 49%, and my WN8  has nosedived. I won't profess to be anything more than a slightly above average player, but its been one tomato team after another, day after day....Team after team where XVM win chance is 21%, 22%, 33%, etc...etc.... Teams where the outcome wasn't even close. SO bad that I get maybe two or three rounds off only to look up and see that half my team is dead in that same timeframe.



I'm at the point where rage quitting seems a viable option. The matchmaking has made this game nothing more than a joke...Its no longer enjoyable when you play on team after team where you're the only one with a win % at 50 or above.....



Is this a phase or the way its going to be from now on?

I don't remember if you played much arty, but there is a new 1st person arty view that is insane.
Search for World of Tanks mod Battle Assistant.  (watch a youtube video to see it in action)
this is my view of a tank I shot with it....

This battle assistant is interesting...  

Gah.  If they reduced camo on TDs then I may just give up on the 2nd German TD line, unless they are still awesome

Premium TDs didn't get their camo nerfed FYI.

Teams where the outcome wasn't even close. SO bad that I get maybe two or three rounds off only to look up and see that half my team is dead in that same timeframe.



I'm at the point where rage quitting seems a viable option. The matchmaking has made this game nothing more than a joke...Its no longer enjoyable when you play on team after team where you're the only one with a win % at 50 or above.....



Is this a phase or the way its going to be from now on?

Its a phase. Everyone gets highs and lows in this game. Yesterday I played against stacked teams non stop. Either I was on my game or I wasn't. If I wasn't it was brutal if I was, it was a good fight. I actually had a few games that were full on 15/13 15/14 games. Then there were the ones where 9 players would be held back by one waffle e100 and literally just sat for 8 minutes letting him reload over and over and piece meal them 1x1. You know, instead of finding the other avenue of approach. You also need to take into account that it is winter break for all the schools, combined with big sales and the WZ1111111 mission which makes people play like retards. If I had a sheriff account I would run it non-stop right now just to ratchet up the insanity. Lol

Good. The box tank needs all the help it can get.

I see they added the new tier 8 premium.  Any thoughts on it?

Fuck it, who am I kidding, I'll just buy the fucking thing anyways.

Ok so here is a question for yall. What's your "go to" vehicle. The one that clicked from the very start, has never left your garage even though it might be low or mid tier. It's the tank you play when your pissed at the game because you know win or loose that your going to have fun that match.



Mine, don't laugh to hard







The Sherman is mine. I almost never have a bad game. Sure I loose in it a fair bit, but it's almost never a "bad" game for me. I've used it as a scout. Trained 3seperate crews for other vehicles in it. It's one of only three I sprang for the full permanent cammoflage, replacement turret "logo" and signature on the side.




I play many other vehicles. But if I'm feeling low or need a good game, I climb in ole blood and guts and grease her threads with the entrails of my enemies

They took it away



KV-1S, old school.

I had a 69% WR in that with 650+ battles.  only about 100 of those were TC battles, too.

I feel your pain. I didn't know mine for very long because I just never wanted Russian heavies till recently. But she was a good tank. The 85 is a shell of what the 1s used to be

T67 for me. Just good ole seal clubbing. It has no armor and a slow turret and can be one shot by a lot of tanks. Instill rape face with it. I have three stars on it, how could I get rid if it?

Running 100% vanilla because of the patch. I must say, wargaming did well to add the last known positions on the mini map. Really, I just ran two games and actually liked it. My one gripe though is not being able to go anyblarger with the map. I like mine big and in your face.



Oh and I noticed they changed the 3,2,1,m badges. Neat little touch/ attention to detail.




Oh, and why did I dislike the T29?! I just took it out for the first time in 6 months and had a 3k damage game with it. Us wz111 grind is gonna be fun

Really not a big fan of the IS to be honest. I remember it catching fire at just about every inopportune time. I mounted a filter and ran a prem fire extinguisher in conjunction with preventative maintenance. I have yet to catch fire in that tank now.
