Sorry to be a bag of dicks here, but what ever happened to helping yourself? This game isn't rocket science. Watch some you tube videos on the tanks you like. Read some threads (the appreciation ones are great and packed with useful info). Platoon with good players and watch what they do after you die. Most people who have a grasp on this game figured it out for themselves. How can you say at ~4700 games that you just cannot do it by yourself? No one is going to tell you a magic word that is going to instantly make you better, experience and patience is what makes people better at this

MOBAs seem to have the most toxic community I've ever seen.

I think they realise a lot more then people credit them, otherwise most players would own their own bank. Good players are not the target audience. I will go as far as saying that the USA in general is not a part of the said audience. --- The target audience is a 47%-er that hates his Pz IV because he gets one-shot by IS-es, but surely once he gets the fierce Tiger, things will change! He finally gets his Tiger and in the first battle gets destroyed by a ST-I. He is upset and agry at the game, but doesnt want to understand how things work, so he buys APCR, that will surely sh

Updated Post Stuff Alright, thanks to some assistance decrypting the .XML files, I now have all nations. I only included guns that have some penetration decay in at least one of their rounds, so most artillery pieces are not seen here, neither are any derp guns that fire exclusively HE and HEAT (Sherman's 105mm, for instance). The complete spreadsheet. - I update this every patch within a few days, check the document title to see what version it's on. Some notes on things I thought notableNo premium AP/APCR round is significantly worse at maximum range than the standard counterpart (excepting

I composed two short poems describing the events occurring at the end of this replay: http://wotreplays.com/site/417084?secret=8b5d7b6411ebf7fb55932129316d2294 They are as follows: Roses are red Violets are blue APCR is expensive Hotchkiss, fuck you and the encore: Ring around the rock Pubbies are in shock APCR, APCR, For fuck's sake, pen! seriously, just a brother trying to get a 5X on his sealclubbing machine tournament tonk, I didn't sign up to lose 60k >.<

OK, just looking at the first pic your AMX40 has a 50% crew. What is the average of your crews? Do you have any at 100%? Any skills or perks yet? Going to be blunt, stay away from your tier 8's. As was mentioned earlier play in tier 5/6. Use your KV-1 to start learning heavies (angling, reverse angling/sidescraping) Get some creds and go get the T49 American TD. Read the appreciation thread and watch the replays. Use it to learn camo and vision control. I would recommend NOT jumping from tank to tank. Play your KV-1 for 5 maybe 10 battles in a row, same for any vehicle. You'll get

So this might be a few paragraphs long, so bear with me, and please respond with your views on this. I have been through the scale of clans now. Starting with a quick stint in Armed that netted me gold, rolling through CAN1A as a FC, joining TMPLR's to learn from Allurai, joining a start up clan as a DC, sitting in a top 5 clan as an OTTER, and now a slight shift to FOXEY.

Tried to comment on a video today, got hit with the usual "change your username" crap that YT has spammed people with for months, except this time there didn't seem to be an opt-out for Google+. And now I'm unable to put up any comments, I just get a "processing" popup that disappears after half a second, and nothing happens. And where dafuq do you find your message box/comment notifier?

Honestly, 50%+ WR isn't "top-notch". That's merely above average. If you platoon with good players, your stats will increase in the short term, but you'll have gained almost nothing long-term. I think that instead of looking for good players to platoon with, you should be actively trying to get better. Whether this be by having someone tutor you or by reading guides, it'll have a long-term effect on your stats for the better. Here are some good guides and/or webpages you should check out: http://wiki.worldoftanks.com/Battle_Mechanics http://wiki.worldoftanks.com/Tactics http://fo

One very important thing that seriously affects the quality of my play is my mental state. Are you tired/stressed/frustrated? I don't really go on tilt, but I have played with some players that do and the results aren't pretty - not really any worse than when I'm ready to fall asleep, but definitely causes people to play below their normal standard. It happens to be that you're in a clan with some decent players that love to platoon. Meet some of them and play with them

Yeah.......... We're not big on trolling n00bs around here... Asshats are also not so popular...

I sometimes suspect that rage is at least partially directed inward. I know that many of the times when I am angry at what a pubbie is doing, I'm more angry that I have let myself be killed, and cannot take advantage of the situation that the pubbie is now pissing away. With that being said, I am always in favor of trying to help, rather than simply raging. I try to coach and direct my last few players. I then try to praise their success, even if that success was nothing more than killing a tier -2 vehicle with their full health heavy. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, but I know that

So are you going to ask customer service to remove the premium they rudely stuck on your account and post about it again?

I honestly have no idea what to expect on release. There for sure will be something to draw the WoT crowd, but so far that hasn't been specified. WG is doing a "first to tier 10" contest. TL;DR version: DON'T. A bunch of aces have tens of thousands of gold they can convert to XP and get there first. Note that while you can't share free XP or credits from WoT (they will release that "later", which I assume means 1-2 years after everyone has premiums tanks/planes in both games), the problem with grinding to tier 10 at release will be the few numbers of people at the higher tiers. Gold s

Load of replays of me playing IS-6. They're not selective so some games might be bad. https://www.4shared.com/rar/LSPhAPSz/replays.html?

I'll trade you my 1day wn7 for your 1day WR

what is your opinion on tard?

I don't rage quit platoons, I get rage quitted on Not my fault that WG didn't buff my Pattons' camo since last battle, fuck you WG!

Text is no problem. The customer is usually sort of right. First, what are you crew skills and equipment? Second your ammo loadout 38 AP and 9 HE? smells like default loadout to me. drop your HE to 1 or 2, drop your AP to 30, and get 15 APCR. While AP is great in tier 7, and vs some 8s, vs bigger 8s and 9s that APCR is OP. and HE is more or less worthless except for resetting cap. Third your consumables. Only a regular repair kit? at the very least you should have rep+med+auto exting. 25/2 you could drop exting for food or octane. I don't remember it having many fire issues Alright,

Whelp. RIP my future in streaming then.

Of course not, who cares about some stupid number? Winning is what matters, loser.

Got a few more games in, and damn this gun is awful. It has more retarded random misses than any tank in wot.

I actually like the game a lot and sometimes that doesn't show through in my posts. It's just sometimes frustrating when the obvious isn't fixed for ridiculously long periods (remember 8 months of tier 5 HEAT?). 6 months have gone by and WG just now figured out that being able to attack someone from high altitude and be literally untouchable made 2/3 of their planes completely worthless. So they make balance changes to correct it one week before release on the test server no one plays. OMFG, seriously? Premium ammo is NOT OP, it's just cost efficient as I said. I actually don't use it

But like I said in the official forum (because wotlabs was down and I was bored) where you originally posted this. It's WG. I expect them to fuck up, change the rules as they go, and include copious amounts of typos. If they were to actually pull of this campaign without a hitch I'd be worried that their entire team had been replaced by 5 chimpanzees riding on the backs of miniature Shetland ponies. We're just a few days into the campaign. There's like 50+ days of this shit to look forward to. If you want a shittank just be in a good clan with semi-competent leadership and show up at

im going to need a video link to confirm this

Never realised you were banned from the wotforums for that long Don't troll the noobs or I'll piss on your posts Troll the american damage whores all you want though , I'm cool with that

Why hello there, newcomer. Let me take your coat. We have refreshments, unicums and most importantly good moderators in these here forums. I'm sure you'll find a lot more than you were looking for!

I'm going to have to completely discourage this. Hitting a wheel sprocket with AP is so much more reliable. And normally you don't have time to switch to HE just to shoot the track.

Paging KilgorSoS

As jacg basically said, it's dumb that sprem rounds are not balanced "in game" but by game economics. It is a crap way to do it, and unbalances the game (both in economics and in game). Fact. If you agree with with them or not, who cares. I use them a lot on some tanks, and none on others.

in what world is this carrying

Sr, you need to platoon with me so I can remind you what real potatoing looks like.

Well the reason I bring this up is because we can agree players have varying styles of game play, right? So the tanks I tend to play are mobile, high powered, alpha strikers or bait tanks. I would say i play this role VERY well as i think it leans on your overall skill as a player... as opposed to waiting on "Bad" players to feed or make a mistake. Almost every Uni I have played with thinks this stratgey is stupid, spergy and derpy. I use it in Solo pubbing to great effect and in platoons it works like a charm. However, I have realized that 90% of Uni's have taught the player base to

Welp - since you can't see CR/D I'll paste it all in. The War Dec: . With the dust in Texas settling down, OTTER has had time to let our 17 tanks unlock and poke our heads up to have a look around the magical farm. What OTTER High Command has seen has caused dismay and chilled us all to the bone. Above us to the north lies a pack of try hard, scumlord sympathizers running a reputable brand through the mud and drilling for oil. We think it's for oil anyway, as there is no logical reason why a bunch of "intellygint tonkas" continues digging at rock bottom. How fellow PETCO clan GRLLA has shared

Yes, very enjoyable.

Also, I bet BURDY with our mixed up bunch of not enough 10s for a full team so we have some 9s and 8s as well, can beat a full tier 10 team of IOC.

You need a chill pill, meth.

How does BIA make vents less useful?

Heh, I like the FCM50t so much that it is my 2nd most-played vehicle ever at 780 battles. Now, take what I say with a grain of salt if you platoon, because my set up/playstyle is purely solo, and I only managed a 61% win rate on the thing while some people manage 70% or more. That said: Crew skills: Sixth Sense (duh), Repair, Snap Shot, Safe Stowage, Offroad Driving and whatever else you want. Incidentally these are also the skills you'll want on a French heavy. Equipment wise, I ran it in two versions: 1. Rammer, Vertical Stabilizer and Gun Laying Drive. 2. Optics, Vertical S
