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

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By JoeCoastie:
And Turbo sucks in casemate TD's so that's saying a lot. But any tank that will flat out curbstomp a 110E5 face to face is hard not to do well in. I love switching to gold and just putting round after round straight through the turret face of heavy tanks who think they're being snazzy trying to bully a light skinned TD. The tier 10's reload is closer to 6 seconds too. One time I was on Cliff and because of the astonishing speed of that TD made it to the lighthouse. When I went into siege mode I flipped the "Ninja Vanish" switch and though I was plainly in view I had both camo net and binocs and was able to flat out stop the enemy force of heavies from climbing out of their North spawn and they never spotted me. |

It's an interesting vehicle. I bought one recently and played my first few matches with it yesterday and to be honest I sucked in it. I need to practice with it since my TD playing lately has been in a T30 or my recently purchased T110E4. This is how mine is Setup Per what Saxplayer told me to do. Rammer , Coated optics and Camo net With a Fully Rotating Turret the net never drops down unless u move the hull for some odd reason. Also about the Gun Depression on the Skorp it gets the Full Gun Depression from the sides only so park side ways and your Golden.  Attached File |

I'd have my ass in a tank that gets pref MM or tier 9 and would run the Patton, T55/54, or E50. That way I could ensure that I'd be top tier or close more often than not. Or the Scorpion. Most people struggle to do 2000 damage per round. That's four whacks on enemies. |

Hey Meegz was in that battle. Cool dude. That said your team's tank makeup should have won that round easily. If your top 5 non arties had pushed North with the T26's and the strv going town but staying on the outskirts that's a curbstomp in the making no matter the player makeup. I'm sure that they screwed it up, though. Otherwise it was fairly even, skill wise. Personal ratings of 6000 is where I say someone can be a reliable player and, to me, it looks like both teams have the same number of competent players if that's the point you're trying to make. Now we're it up to me, if you were unable to attain and maintain a specific personal rating you would be unable to purchase, research or play specific tiers. So using WN8, if you were below 1500-1600 WN8, tier 9 would be closed off to you, and 1600-1700 would be for tier X and up. I mean, if we are means testing various performance ratings as a filter to baddies and South Americans Shitting up games, why not just filter out all the chaff? |

Never mind your idea that a good strat might have won, because you're absolutely correct. But just looking at the numbers, and the idea that we're talking pubs....those numbers looks balanced to you.... |

That said, stupid players have bad stats for a reason, making stupid mistakes, but to say that you couldn't have won is a misnomer. It's why I beat the drum of people doing what they should be doing in a given tank will almost always win, stats be damned. So yeah, based on the tank makeup, I'll call that even though I know they screwed even that up and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. |

Whether this is on purpose or not is debatable, but in my experience, there should be a larger disparity in people's win rates and there is not. That said, I agree that win rate means you tend to do more for your team than not. Someone with a 60+ win rate shouldn't be taken lightly. You can still easily pad win rate too. Just run platoons in tier 6 in Cromwells and you could get it to 70% without too much trouble. |
