Since the last thread was locked at over 1k pages I started a new one.

Link to old thread is here Click

Link to official wot website for those who wish to read up and download the game. Click

here's a link to some Mods you can install. There are tons of mods to chose from this is just an example really. Click



I personally use OMC Modpack. It has a ton of customization and is very easy to install. http://odemmortis.com/odem-mortis-modpack/http://www.modxvm.com/



if you have any questions, this is the place to ask them. We're not all assholes just most of us

Current WN8 after 200+ battles is ... double digits. /sigh/

Premium. Really pays off when. You hit tier6/7. It's pretty difficult to get anywhere above that. You can but it will take you a lot longer than someone running a prem account. Check out the team speak and try to toon with some people. Install xvm and follow the green blue and purple players after you're dead so you can see different fighting positions. Good luck

Just got everything set up in my SU-152 and took it out for a couple of games.
Never knew what kind of attention one gets until you roll one.
Am going to use this for my unit patch since it is so apropos for it.

It's like that with a lot of the high alpha TD's. I'd a waffle unloads his clip in a not so good position that one poor bastard is gonna take the brunt of it and everyone wants to pounce as soon as he's reloading

forgot to post this one. its always shitty being last man standing on your team as arty. this guy pops up over a dune, i turned, locked on and rubbed out a snapshot.  chat went nuts, but unfortunately the lowe was right behind him





only high point in an otherwise shit game.  As always some games you just cant miss, others you cant hit anything to save your life

Further, make absolutely sure you don't give a smart enemy side shots. They'll drill your front sprocket which has very little armor, and will kill your driver, engine, and possibly screw up your ammo rack.

The gun on that thing is outstandingly accurate.

You *WILL* hit what you're shooting at. Even at surprisingly long distances. Those T30's and T34's that like to think they're safe hulldown are in for a rude damned awakening when you're beating their commander hatches to shit from across the map. (ETA: Also the round is usually coming DOWN onto their top from a long ways away and is near autopen at that point, which can be hilarious.

The best piece of advice I can give you is to turn your turret away, inward, from your intended victim at about a 25 -35 degree angle and lock your turret there while you're reloading or backing out into the open during a sidescrape. Your face can be easily penned by all kinds of stuff if you're facing them, but at an angle like that, you're damned near impenetrable.


Do you unlock to aim/fire or rotate the entire hull then when firing?  I've found an angled turret bounces a ton, straight on I know it's soft... It's where I tend to pen using other tanks.

I've been rotating turret off target on reload and then rotating back on to fire when reload timer is about 2.3 seconds... Giving me time to aim and such. I tend to keep the hull at side scraping angles, I do wiggle it to try and keep anyone from getting a well aimed shot.

Need to play E100 moar... But grinding IS-8 and M-103 currently.
I learned how to take an elephant down with my Meds... So I'm pretty conscious about keeping my front spoket and turret face safe.   Doing so has been very profitable so far,

Got my first MOE in the IS-8 today. . Will likely have the IS-7 and T110e5 unlocked here pretty quickly.

That's why I sometimes love the T95 - who cares if you get a lot of attention, you are bouncing even most premium rounds from a distance (unless there is a ton of sky cancer then no mobility super sucks)

Stop at the Conway. It's damned good.

The 4005 is an absolute piece of shit.

It takes the title of "Worst Tier X In The Game!!!" By a landslide from the T110E4, and the E4 sucks ass.

KV-4 KTTS (Tier 8 version)
Hello warriors,

just a quick update. The KV-4 KTTS version that was buffed so heavily is in fact tier 8, not tier 7. It's a new version, tested to see whether the vehicle would be tier 8 viable. Apologies for the oversight.

Changes to KV-4 KTTS Besides it is Going to Tier 8 now instead of Tier 7 Prem

- hull traverse nerfed from 32 to 30 deg/s
- terrain resistance nerfed from 1,151/1,342/2,685 to 1,342/1,438/2,685
- gun traverse rate (the speed with which the gun moves on this TD) decreased significantly
- stabilization significantly improved (not that important for TD but this includes aim circle size increase from switching targets by moving the gun)
- MM weight decreased from 40 to 27 (probably a placeholder)

New statistics:

Tier: 8TD
Hitpoints: 1200
Engine: 1200 hp
Weight: 100 tons
Power-to-weight: 12 hp/t
Maximum speed: 35/10 km/h

Interesting.... Bet it has -2 degrees of elevation though.

Might have to jump on test and give it a go and see... It looks like it'll play like a less armored, less elevation having, possibly more mobile t28.

Interesting.... Bet it has -2 degrees of elevation though.

Might have to jump on test and give it a go and see... It looks like it'll play like a less armored, less elevation having, possibly more mobile t28.


I am on the test and don't see it on there

Had he been smart, he would have shot you with a HESH round. It would have ended your adventure abruptly.

They don't bounce and even shots into hard/strong/armored areas will do 800-1000 damage.

That tank either should be removed entirely and let me have the XP back, or replaced with something somewhat useful.

Yes, delete it and get it on your PC instead. There is a ton to learn and I can't type it all out on my phone.

 



So, in short, go on you tube and see if you can find tutorials. Learn spotting mechanics and how camo works. Learn how to effectively use armor and how to use certain types. For instance do you agle the armor of one tank or does it just stay front towards enemy. Do you hull down you tank or can you rely on your hull armor to stand up to a beating.




The  learning curve is steep in this game. The low tiers suck. Get up to tier 4 but before you get there I would highly recommend that you at least learn how spotting mechanics and camo work first.

Doesn't do a lot of damage, but you shoot about every 6 seconds.

Sounds like a good place to start, thanks. It was free for Xbox. just picked up a new graphics card for my PC. Guess I might have to put it to use.

It's free on PC as well. Download team speak and hang out with some of the guys here. Lots of good folks from this site play and would be willing to teach you in real time. Plus, it adds a lot to the game just shooting the breeze like you're in a locker room. Well, without all the man ass and sweaty ball smell

FALSE!

Dude, Larry and Leisure still play this game.

You've got a smooth talking Ohioan and an abrasive Arkansan who regularly talk about both man ass *AND* ball smell.

But the best was the night that Larry was telling us about how his kid was acting out the fight scene of his Batman game or the time Larry told us how he and his kids were reenacting the battle of Thermopylae in his backyard.  

And you know about those festivals where we turn pennies into copper wire!

just a quick update. The KV-4 KTTS version that was buffed so heavily is in fact tier 8, not tier 7. It's a new version, tested to see whether the vehicle would be tier 8 viable. Apologies for the oversight.

Haven't played in a couple days. Login to play my T-44 (such a POS tank). 3 games, 3 losses. I am consistently doing 1800+ dmg and still lose. This game is just too broken. They need to address the skill gap. I am done playing this game for awhile.

That fucking thing...



It was awful.  Maybe 15k away from finishing it, they launched the global accuracy nerf.  My average damage dropped to about a third of what it was and it wasn't that great to begin with.  I ground out the last 10-12k with pure gold, which is like 1 meter more of splash and same damage, iirc.  It was absolutely horrific.  Finally got the M40/M43 which is an improvement, not that it takes much to improve on that thing.  



I was so done at that point I damn near quit the game.  Sold every last arty instead.  Best decision I ever made.



When they did the ontrack for the Brit line, I got back into it a bit and stopped at the FV304, which I obviously like.  I even like the Bishop, a bit.  Later I re-bought the M44.  Between that and bert, I've been pretty successful on the arty missions, though I don't play any of them very much.  They're the only arties I currently own.



I like the M44.  Pretty good reload.  Relatively accurate for arty.  Maybe I'll go back to the line at some point.  People rave about the M53/M55.  I've certainly been killed by them often enough.

I'd like to think I'm a pretty decent arty player, but when several fully aimed shots go well outside the aim circle, yeah. Fuck that.

I'd like to think I'm a pretty decent arty player, but when several fully aimed shots go well outside the aim circle, yeah. Fuck that.




At the end I was landing, at best, 1 in 6 fully aimed shots against completely stationary tanks.



I experimented with snap-shotting moving tanks instead and had roughly similar results.



It was like a slot machine, but not as satisfying.



I considered it a good game if I landed one actual hit.  



My last few games were driving around shotgunning people.  I had way better games doing that than playing as arty.



That thing is fucking awful.
