Why not replace it with m60a1, if ruskies can have armor then American medium can have 193mm front hull and turret armor right?
>>135837105
Reposting question in new thread, because I only have enough silver for one tier 6 at the moment and I don't want to get the ""wrong"" tank.
>>135837923
>if ruskies can have armor
you know this isn't how it works. a load of hipster good players play it and make it look not shit, while the infinitely superior overpowered russian tanks are weighed down massively by hordes of plebs so their stats don't look as good as they should

WG would never balance tier 10 mediums out. Also what >>135838439
said.
>>135837661
what's the best gold tank?
>>135837923
They had the M60 as a reward tank for the PC version (consolefag here); they gave it virtually no armor for being of balance. )))))
>>135838909
The tank made of gold, goy. :^)
>>135838483
I'm a shitter who defends arty, why am I subhuman scum
:^)
>>135838963
that's m60/xm60 without the turret and upgraded hull armor of the iconic m60a1/a3
>>135838909
Depends
Type 59 is probably the best all around premium, but good luck getting one now
>>135839462
Fug, you're right. I think putting in the M60A1 would be great for the game. 193mm of frontal armor is nice and would bridge the gap of a very stagnant tier 10 medium meta right now. But that's just wishful thinking.
Man, this mission sure sounds like fun!
>>135837347
>>135837661
>that guy who reposts my webms
>>135839901
>that guy who samefags
>>135839747
193mm is the front turret with a mantlet of 250mm, front glacis is 109mm which is better than m48 and much better than the 93mm of m60
Tournament starts in an hour guys
Tournament goes up in 15 minutes get in the ts
>>135840390
I want this meme to die
TOURNAMENT POPPED GET IN THE FUCKING TS
>>135840148
So basically a workable tier 10. I like my Fatton, but it's just a good gun on a mediocre platform. At least I almost have the E5 unlocked.
>>135840887
It's arguably too armored and I'll agree, but it's still got fucking weak spots unlike e5
Why is this allowed
>>135841015
I used to not panic when I ran into an e5 and now I just go in the other direction when I see one. and they could balance it out by shaving the turret armor down to ~180mm and keep the mantlet as is.
>>135841163
To stop over matching I guess, same reason chieftain is 119mm gun. Another way to balance
T-34-85 line or A-43 line? Also, is comet and beyond worth a damn?
>tfw no one else shows up to your tournament team
Guys come on we only have 3 minutes until the battle starts
>>135841475
XDDD
>>135841445
I can't comment on the A-43 but the 34-85 is really solid and has an above average top gun for its tier. You can also hop into the IS line which is what I plan to do.
>>135841246
And yet the KV-2 gets its real caliber
is balance tovarish)))))This also applies to the Type 4 & 5's 14cm guns, this shit bugs me to no end

Considering that the gun handling is far better on paper than that of the STA-2, doesnt sound that bad

Playing for fun require playing the game first.

My theory on that is they paid their way to tier 10 and think that's how the game is supposed to be.

More like every F2P out there, the same kind of fauna on AW
>>135853246
Nothing will ever change as long as people can still get 500+ XP with premium account on a win where they did nothing, while that guy on the losing team with 5k damage gets fuck all. Unfortunately these are the people who buy lots of premium time to keep the grinds progressing, so there's no incentive for WG to change the XP formula.

>>135855890
What tanks are preferred? 122mm KV-1?
>>135856125
yes sir, but the 85mm has been pretty reliable in the March Madness tourney so we can talk about it as a team about the line up
>>135855835
Depends which line did you choose. They're best used as support at least until tier 8-9. Pretty accurate guns with decent DPM, not that great armor (again, that changes when tier 9 comes). Against people who don't know to shoot angled plates Tiger (P) is pretty sturdy, but that's about it, I think. E75 and VK B are full frontline tanks, though, with great overall armor and pretty good guns, too.
>>135855890
to anyone that was interested
>Allowed Total Tier: 18
so it'll probably 3 Tier 5 Heavies and a Tier 3 scout
>>135856350
I'm going down the E-100 line, at the D.W. 2 now. I guess i'll stay back behind KVs and shit then,
>>135855890
>>135856125
I'll join, there's only 18 tier points though so you'll only be able to bring 3 tier 5 heavies and 1 tier 3

>>135857245
i bought a Rudy while it was on sale.
I love my t34-85.
I also have the Skoda T40. That is good tonk as well.
I went up german line but i have t28 right now. Should I push to the KV-1? Even tho t28 is aids and i hate playing that thing,
>>135857249
>I only play guns with shit aim time
stop playing russian tonks you sperg
>>135856829
No one will respect you in game until you're atleast 3-4k games in. By then you should have an understanding of map tactics and general weakness of tanks in every tier you play at
>>135857412
I don't even play this game, but the whole aim circle being able to expand to the size of your moms anus from a slight movement is just bs desu.
>>135857410
KV-1 will be a different play style. It's something you'll have to experience yourself to figure out if you like it or not.
I'm starting to like playing the M6 more than the KV85. Am I having a stroke?
>>135857629
>implying you can aim instantly with the state of the physics in WT
>>135858015
No, the M6 is a solid tank. You should be worried if you enjoy playing the douchewagon II.
>>135858048
Yes, you can, because your gun spread isn't magically increased by 400% from moving an inch.
>>135858048
there isn't any dispersion in WT though
>>135859163
the tanks bump and slide around faster than turret traverse and gun elevation mechanism can compensate, even if the does shoot where the cursor is, it doesn't mean you can aim instantly unless you're already stationary
>>135859683
>unless you're already stationary
that's the point though, you can't do that in WoT because you still have to wait for your gun to "become accurate"
>it's a nine TDs on the opposing team episode
>>135860178
B-but only arty causes people to camp!
>>135860262
>arty apologist
fuck off
>>135860009
that's a very small point since turret traverse dispersion is quite low unless you're throwing your mouse around
>>135860009
in wot, 66% of shots go straight regardless of how big your aiming circle is
think of it as applied physics, the uncertainty principle.
russian engineers can never be measure both: where the gun is pointing and how long it's been there
only if you wait for long enough, the probability waves line up and you can be sure where it is
I haven't played WoT in four months, the buff to the Matilda's maneuverability is a real joy :D

what the fug
>>135858015
No, the M6 is statistically superior the the KV-85. M6 is more mobile, has better gun handling and massively better depression, and the front armour isn't much worse (ie they're both shit). KV-85 has some side armour and better DPM.
Granted the OI obsoleted every other tier 6 heavy now, but I still don't understand why people clung to the KV-85 for months after the split happened. The gun depression is just too limiting unless you know the map in advance, and even then the old model ARL44 with 105 was better in tournaments.

>>135866992
it doesn't matter at all
>>135866992

>>135866780
Have I implied anything else, friend :^)
>>135866992
Survival rate is much less important than actual contributions to the game.
>>135867065
idk, I consciously try to play the same way regardless of how many hitpoints I have, and my survival rate is ~20%
so my wn8 & average damage are inflated but my winrate is low as fuck

Trying to grind the Sturer Emil is suffering. It's only redeeming quality is its gun depression, but that's pretty useless when it takes half the game to get up a suitable hill and still exposes paper-thin armour when hull downing.
>>135868658
it's fun with the top gun

But it requires a 50k+ grind with the stock gun to get it.

>wasting free xp on a tier 4
Could be spent better elsewhere. You should only do this if you have a shit ton of playtime already and 20 or so lines up to an elited tier 9. For everyone else but the long term veterans, all those little free xp dumps into minuscule grinds is just making the real grinds that much longer.
Tournament in 1p minutes and I'm not going to make it for the first few battles again tonight. Sorry for being a shitter.

>>135880738
You should be ashamed of yourself
You took an unnecessary risk to satisfy your gluttonous ass
Is there a mod to remove the horrible beeping every time a module is damaged? I can't fucking take it anymore.
So I am grinding the Japanese med line. Currently at the Chi-Ri, should i go with the autoloader, or should i stick with the 7.5 type 5 model I? I will need to unlock it anyway, just wondering if it is worth unlocking the cheaper module first. Conslebaby BTW.
>mfw Benis B-Team is on time and performing admirably
>>135882086
benis a-team managed to field a team and won it's game
No need to panic
>>135882054
the autoloader is the only mediocre feature on a really bad tank
>>135882086
We got 4 at the last minute.
We're going to make the straggler change their name to cheese_fries with the winnings though.
>>135882250
fucking do it
>>135882204
The autoloader is one astounding feature upon a heaping list of admirable traits possessed by the Chi-Ri, among them incredible gun depression and a wonderful hitpoint pool. Do not shame the Chi-Ri with your tongue
