>>147423078
if you were good you would know about the reload times so it just helps shitters
>>147422570
What do you have? I did it all with honours in the Lorraine 155 51 (t8).
>>147423483
M40/43 GW Panther and the rest only tier 6 and 5 s
>>147423552
Any of them will work senpai. Are you playing now? I can bring my t8 so we can be cancers together.
>>147423636
i still need to grind the creds to buy one of them back sadly
I've got a bunch of free time this month, thinking of playing this again. What do I buy from the store to get premium, just the straight time? Or is it cheaper another way.
>>147425717
>giving them money
>>147425802
Why not? I remember premium time making the grind so much faster. I've spent 10 bucks on worse things today already.
>>147425717
last i checked (a while ago, so do the numbers yourself) it was cheapest to buy gold, which you'd use to buy premium monthly (you're unlikely to play 6 mo without taking a longer break)
just keep in mind that you might end up with some worthless wg scrip when you quit
Whoever told me to use the Sau 40 aggresively...
How? It literally has 35mm of armour.
>>147426114
Why are you grinding that line?
>>147426114
by one-shotting things with that ridiculous howitzer
>>147426236
Why not?
>>147426278
What howitzer?
>>147426327
The big gun with the big damage
>>147426327
this one
>>147426327
literally least played tanks per tier on all tiers the gunhandling is cancer and the rest of the tanks just doesnt make it better at all
>>147426114
It was me, so I checked my replays, and 750 xp with 700 damage is worth an ace (~6 shots with the non-howitzer gun).
You literally just shoot and keep moving forward as long as there's an ally between you and the reds. It's t4, they probably won't notice you anyway.

The last thing I want is for this tournament to be a success. I'll pass.
>>147427579
Nah it was an accident
Really though why would you play anything but tier ten/seal clubbing tanks?
When did NOFUN start letting in those impure tomatoes?
Ethnical cleansing when?
>>147428848
Eh, I find tier 4,6,8 and generally the shit zones; at least on NA. Never top tier, scale poorly when bottom tier. There's a few tanks at those tiers that can compete of course, but if you're playing any of the mediocre ones good luck.
>>147429005
NOFUN started dying when we allowed brits to join and the final nail in the coffin was those weebs that came in for clam wars and then left with their faggot leader dolan.

Brits have been in the clan since the start
Just got the Hummel, I feel like the reload time on the top gun is not worth the damage increase in terms of ability to do total damage throughout the game. Am I wrong here? Lots of reports that the top gun fires outside the circle too.

also it's getting baked into the client with the arty rebalance. i don't like the camera angle WG picked for their version though, it's a little too shallow

>T34-85's still on sale
I kind of want it, but at the same time I have spent all my money on STA-1 recently. I have at least 2 more tanks to buy. It's a difficult choice. What should I do?
>>147422328
Asia is too cool for wotg. Not 輝くing enough.
>>147433425
T-34-85 is a very nice tank and only the most degenerate faggots fail to enjoy it

lads
I literally just found a way to fix this shit dead game
ready?offer free premium for two weeks for newcommers, and the option to unlock an additional line (up to tier 8) for free upon unlocking their first t8
That way, 95.37% of their playerbase wont quit the game before even reaching tier 5 because of how incredibly shit and unbalanced low tiers are
>>147433183
argument? i'm not arguing, i'm just saying you're using reddit twitch memes

I dropped this game two years ago, best tonk i had was a Tiger
should I come back?
>>147436564
I don't go on either, and I know you're not arguing, because you can't
>>147438272
Given that it was in SF, it was probably the LGBBQ.
>>147439056
The tiger is pretty competitive now after the buff on the top gun
>>147439236
so will I be able to take on 28 enemy tanks all by myself while being impervious to enemy fire like in my meme RTS videogames?
>>147439338
No, you just have a gun that people won't laugh at
>>147439381
boo
which one is it? the L/71?
>>147439141
>I know you're not arguing, because you can't
what am i supposed to argue with you? that was the first message i replied to you. you seem a bit confused.
>>147439338
lol no, see
>>147436695
>>147439520
Yea, you're still flat and go up against tanks that will shoot through your armor easily when you let them catch you unangled though so you still need to git gud to do your big damages.
>>147439948
can't argue with facts either way :^)
which tanks have the highest skill floor and skill ceiling?
>>147440845
Light tanks.
It's easy to pad your WN8 in them because shitters literally can't play them because they're too shit.
That means the expected values gets pulled down hard, so people who actually know how to play lights end up getting a ton of WN8.
Every other tank type is a lot more forgiving to shitters.
>>147438948
Wait what changes
>>147441028
yeah I've been playing a luchs and an ELC and they are teaching me a lot of lessons
>>147441464
They're changing the game engine so mods won't work at all.
>>147441464
different version of actionscript so most UI mods won't work
What if they changed spotting mechanics
>>147441741
what if you had to do math to aim arty
>>147441863
What if arty wasn't spending half a minute jerking off and then rolling the dice to see if you ruin someone's day or just do nothing.
>>147441863
what if you had control the tank with voice commands
>>147441978
boy have i got the place for you
>>147441991
World of Tanks; introducing Kinect!
>>147441028
Add to this: your light needs to have combat capability to really pad your wn8. If you can't deal damage you won't win because your shitter allies can't take advantage of spotting.
>>147441978
lol this is me
>>147441028
>tfw I too could be a 4k wn8 super unicum if I only drove the Chaffee
>>147442269
Why aren't you?
>>147441978
Sounds like 8.5. I like it.
>>147442269
The chaffee is actually fun though
It gets vstabs super early, good speed and maneuverability, and great camo with good viewrange. You will need plenty of APCR for tier 8 sides though
>>147442243
>padding wn8
>winning
These are not even remotely close to the same thing. Chai sniping while shooting straight APCR out of the stock gun in a VK2801 is the best way to pad your wn8, but it's certainly not the best way to pad your winrate.
>>147442145
Is sandbox still 'splash a dozen enemy tanks, break their tracks, do next to no damage, everyone who's been hit suddenly has a 50% crew"
Because that doesn't seem fun either.
is it just me or does the SU 122 44 get way too many tier 9 matches for a tier 7 TD
alright /wotg/ give me THE meta.
>>147442442
Because I like to drive other tanks too, and the Chaffee is the only tank where I get an average 4k wn8. Other people driving this tank must not even be trying.

>>147442525
Back before furlabs was shit, it was pretty well proved that the best way to raise winrate was to disregard everything but damage and just aggressively chase all the damage you possibly can, because you can't rely on anyone to do it for you
>>147442227
Do I have to pretend to kick the driver to move?
>>147442636
it's a 30% debuff now i think. noticeable, but in no way crippling.
if anything i think it could stand to be a little stronger.
>>147442908
>before furlabs was shit,

>\ally is3 is using the 100mm

>>147442636
in the current version arty is unreliable, can PERMANENTLY give you a 50% crew with the right rng, single tanks get fucked over instead of a couple and it has nearly no impact on the game most of the time
>>147442691

>>147443361
>type 5
c'mon man
>>147443410
M40/43 with AP on top gun its stupidly fun
>>147443410
The Lefh has more armor than most tier 5 mediums, and its gun is like the M4 derp gun. You can definitely brawl with it in tier 5 games.
>>147443926
>The Lefh has more armor than most tier 5 mediums
... assuming that no one aims at the gun shield
>>147444114
>implying that anyone knows the armor layout of an artillery piece at tier 5
I've seen people bounce more shells off the Lefh than any other SPG in the game. At that tier, its armor is actually very good.
>>147444478
Against drooling retards
Also you get one shotted by any derp running around
>>147442716Most don't, including me. I just like it because I can do sick drifting around enemy tanks and act a fool.
>trying to figure out how to AMX 13/75

>clip literally ANY tier 8+ in the ass
>13/75 does not accelerate fast enough or turn fast enough OR keep enough speed through turns to circle or run away with any speed
>clipping anyone is literally asking for at least one shot into your exhaust pipe
>doesn't help that for whatever reason fuckers decide to abandon their current target just to fucking shoot the light-tank
So do I just passive scout the whole game and pick on tier 7s or what
>>147445310
just because you have a drum doesn't mean you have to empty all of it in one go every time. if you put 3-4 shells in someone's ass and they start focusing you just get out and reload, the 13 75 drum reload is fast enough to not think twice about it
>tfw things go according to plan
>it's a "if you have 46% you suck and you make your team lose just by being in it" episode
>it's a "leopard isn't the best german light tank under tier 8" episode
>>147445310
Play it like a paper medium and farm damage for easy purple numbers. Run 50/50 AP and APCR. Shoot APCR at fronts and shoot AP at butts.
>>147445310
Just play actively the entire time. You're so far outclassed as a passive scout that it doesn't even matter.
Get into a good position, ambush the sides, reload and change position, run out of ammo and lose.
>>147445878
The mark of excellence is a truly tragic affair.
>>147446171

TOP KEK
I can only imagine the M44 screaming NOOOO as he slips in front of the gun
>>147446571
I really should have died had the guy had any sense what so ever.
>>147446516
ikr
>>147447131
He must have been so mad the poor bugger.
it was a really stupid match. I killed a T67 hiding there 2 allies drowned following me(seen in the webm) and then I died to their t34.
>>147447156
Clearly I just need to turn my back to the enemies in order to bounce shots in that POS tank.
>>147447585
The constant turning was me trying to get some angling to resist that tiny gun. I really hated it it was bigger than a heavy tank and had horrid accuracy.
How do I play the IS properly? At best I can net in an average of 1300 dmg a game, am I being too aggressive?
>>147448835
maybe you're not being aggressive enough. that thing is about decisively removing enemy tanks
>>147449035
When I try to be aggressive, I get fucked in the ass by some faggy T29 or tank destroyers. I try to push and bully mediums/reloading heavies, but I get fucked in the ass majority of the time, do I need better positioning, or better awareness?
>>147449260
probably
>>147449260
>>147449492
sounds like you're fighting on the enemy's terms. the point of aggression is to make them fight on yours
>>147446873
awesome
>>147449634
So basically, make sure they're the ones driving towards me, and then track them whilst also inflicting damage, or bait shots by sidescraping and then retaliate once they've bounced?
>>147450069
You need to be aggressive but always be in spots where there's cover for you to hide behind and just enough distance so that if the enemy rushes you, you can be practically reloaded by the time they turn the corner. having friendlies around also helps
if there were some sort of stat squish where tanks of all tiers could fight, what would you play?
don't deny the hypo either you autists, I realize it would be difficult or impossible
the matilda gun has the tempo of hitting someone in the head with a baseball bat, which is why it is so satisfying
>>147452323
unfortunately it also has the destructive power of hitting a tank with a baseball bat
oh well, at least the pen's good
would the turret gun on m3 Lee actually be able to pierce something around its tier?
>>147452447
37mm, you think?
>>147452447
tier 4 is pretty paper
>>147452883
at the same time we're talking about a gun with 48 pen
ITS OGRE.
This game is shit and stupid
>>147453394
>Wanting the ride to end
>>147454325
JUST
>>147452447
Some 3s and 4s, and the odd paper TD above that. Could also just be used to spam HE and perma-track whatever it's fighting.
>>147452428
per shot yes, but its dpm is insane
>>147455286
not to be all no it's not but no it's not. even looking at only T4 tanks there's more of them with higher DPM than not. some of them very significantly so.
>>147455598
I think in reality the DPM feels higher on the matilda because you can take more risky broadside shots or track without having a huge reload that makes it more risky
>>147455752
i just assume that everyone saying so is a complete scrub who bounces most of his shots in other tanks
>>147455086
>Could also just be used to spam HE and perma-track whatever it's fighting.
So the reason everyone in a Maus wants to have the 75mm working.
>>147451993
I just want to see a gamemode with_______________fun________
>>147455752
it also has amazing gun handling, you can lock on a target without stopping and still hit every shot. It's reliable DPM, unlike on other tanks which are more situation dependent. The Lee has insane DPM but accuracy is bad, it has no turret and the gun is mounted in the worst spot imaginable. With Matilda, you can 1v1 a KV-1 and come out on top. The same can't be said for most tier 4 mediums, except maybe Pz IV D, which is ridiculously OP.
>>147457063
>you can lock on a target without stopping and still hit every shot
a whole bunch of tanks can do this is you limit them to 15-20 kph
>>147457063
>With Matilda, you can 1v1 a KV-1 and come out on top
lol, you're so unbelievably full of shit. Unless you're at stupidly close range you have to aim in for much longer than your reload, and the KV-1 has 400 more dpm and 270 more HP than a matilda, the matilda gets obliterated by Kv-1's
>>147422189
>serb is making light tanks great again on the sandbox

>>147457568
Not really, you engage the KV from a distance and wreck it, specially if it's derping. You need to use cover though, I never said 1v1 out in the open.
>>147458172

Greg isn't even that bad in Tanks desu. Pringles just trolls him saying he sucks because he knows it triggers him.
>>147461709
He is bad at tanks though, constantly blames his team and he can't see how bad he his playing. If greg was on greg's team greg would be furious with how badly he played, but greg can't see it because greg is greg
>>147461709

This. He's been platoonpadding from a pretty low game count. Platooning really is the easiest way to bring your stats up in this game.

Anyone else griding the French heavies in preparation for the new line?
jesus christ teammates are so fucking retarded, 3 people with a 105mm gun afraid to push an IS-3 on 200 hp so they just let him sit behind the fucking corner and shoot you, literally only 1 gun pointing at three high health tanks and they won't push him they'll just sit there letting him stare at another corner for 3 shots worth of damage, god fucking damnit

>Swedish heavy lets itself get shot to near death by several T28s with full nigger crews
>Swedish heavy goes to A1 and hides in a bush with binocs
>Swedish light with full female crew barely in draw range, getting rammed by the T28s until it dies
>>147464793
>getting outplayed by both teams
>>147465297
I forgot to mention the ending, after that happens the Swedish heavy cheers for how progressive and tolerant the whole situation is

Major newfag question here, but I just relocated my Easy 8 crew to my Pershing. Why are their skill percents red? They maintained their sixth sense and high repair skill, but for some reason they aren't 100% anymore.
just
>>147466139
you have to retrain them
>>147466139
They have to be retrained for the vehicle, only exception to this is moving them to a premium medium tank.
>>147466179
>>147466230
How do I retrain them? Do I literally just play the game like I did before until their percents go back up. I don't see why it matters because I still get sixth sense which from what I notice is the only skill that matters.
>>147466360
how the fuck did you get to T8 without figuring this out?
>>147446049
>reload and change position, run out of ammo and lose.
Bruh, you ain't lying. I've had 12 losses and one win today in my 13/75. In almost every match I end up with 20-25 penetrations and use up most of my ammo, but my team just can't pick up the slack.
I don't know what it is about this tank or about this day, but I get put on some shit teams. I'm not playing like I'm dead weight but it just feels like I have absolutely no way of influencing the end result of a game. Even had a game in which I expended all of my ammo with about an 80% penetration rate AND scored 4k spotting damage and my team still couldn't fucking pull it out.
inb4 tomato, I am super purple

>click button for "send to barracks", etc.
>select "retrain crew"
>either go free, credits, or be good goy and use gold
>>147466489
I've never moved crews before, I just kept buying new ones because I don't know what efficiency is.
>>147466489
>implying most tier 8 players do not have a similarly low level of intelligence and intuition
>>147466689
>either go free
no don't
