my computer failed miserably with the new graphics engine.
I may have to put the game to bed until I get a new computer. The current one works awesome for everything else so it may be a while. I can't see buying a new set up just to play a game. I won't be missed though, I'm not that good anyways. LOL |

Shout out to Scott, Don and Hobbez--all trying hard to help with that stupid scout mission.
Who would have thought it was that difficult to get 2500 spotting; LT-14... Poor maps, loads of scouts on teams, and teams that wouldn't shoot lit tanks didn't help either. Thanks again guys, we will get it... |

In the last 24 hours (playing lights) I have been snap-shotted by an O-I, O-Ni, two KV-2s and a SU-100Y. All while at full speed perpendicular to their path of travel and with them on the move.
Go ahead, try and tell me RNG isn't fungible.

Vast conspiracy..
Kill 5 tanks and we still lose. Next mission...different tank..4 kills still lose..
And they blame me despite being a team player. Next mission 1 kill and we win.

Thanks Billpete---
If it just---reloaded a little faster, fired consecutive shells a little faster, had a little bit better armor, had a little bit better speed, didn't YAK one shot of every clip, had enough damage in a clip to actually kill a T9 medium it might be facing....It almost seems to me they said what do we need to do to make SURE it cant kill a T54 or an OBJ in a 1 v 1... |

Just saw this thread.
My son talked me into playing this damn game just last night. I can't explain how badly I suck at it. 
I've seen bridesmaids dresses with more armor than my pressed tin "Lol-traktor"(thats what he calls it) I'm starting on. It's fun but frustrating. I can recognized situations and problems as they arise just fine. I just suck terrible at driving the tank. Takes me too long to position my tank and I can't get myself out of trouble quickly enough. I see it coming, just can't get out of there quickly enough. I need three hands to start. I don't know if I'll stick with it though, just trying to figure out all the menus, tech trees is daunting. It's funny though, everyone here bitching about their tier x problems and Im ready to tear my hair out over this piece of shit Im in. You guys can wax nostalgic for your first tier 1 tanks now.

Have fun and when people call you a baddie just say you're from Argentina. The thing is, Im really competitive and it's hard to let it go.
I just need to practice my mouse/keyboard coordination. Then things will improve for me. Is there a practice area in the game? Or can I go through the tutorial again? Solo's Mod pack? Dude, I'm old. I don't understand computers at all. Which is another thing that makes this frustrating. My son is helping and has me watching "JIngles" videos on youtube so I'm starting to figure how things work from that. What's the pack do? It is fun, when things go right and my fat fingers don't get me killed. But now you're telling me I have to learn Portuguese in order to cover for my shit play.
Thanks for the advice. |

The mechanics of the game, I do OK..I think. I've played a total of 15 games or so last night. I have managed to go back and successfully killed opponents sitting in our base a couple of times, seen tanks working their way around behind me and have managed to set up ambushes for them, I've played a few games with 3 kills or so. I'm doing ok, it's just I cant physically drive the tank for shit. One bit of advice I'd like is which gun is better on the Loltraktor? My son helped me get the autoloader, but I think the original gun was better. I only played two games with the AL but it just sprays shit all over. I may go back to the other one. |

I've learned that the T-54 is a credit black hole. Almost 3k damage last match, no boosters, no gold ammo...made 10k credits. A loss would have lost credits with the same stats. There's almost no way to make credits with this tank. But it's SO damn fun!

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By USMC_JA:
Beyond the monster reload time, the other significant issue with the T54E1 is that you ARE going to drop a round during the clip. Count on it. Doesn't matter where you are aimed. One round will dirt dive or do no damage. That being said, one thing I found that helped was to pause (when you can) during the clip. I noticed that when I was dumping rounds into someone, if I could pause an extra second or two, or pause and send rounds into a different target, my hit rates for the entire clip seemed to go up.
