World of Tanks - SIEMA PL? - Games

[QUOTE=goon165;37647728]Tanks are good when people know how to use them [B]WHO FUCKING KNEW?[/B][/QUOTE] Problem is somewhere else. Some tanks can be about as good as others in hands of average player, but when you take high level players, they DOMINATE where the others couldn't, even with the same grade players. The game isn't balanced on the average W/L, but on compromise between average W/L and W/L of pros. It's stuff regarding skill ceiling and such. It's hard to balance tank for both a noobs and a pros, and while Marder II was well balanced among noobs, it was overpowered in hands of good players.

[QUOTE=Valdor;37643994]The t-43 is an amazingly fun tank. [/QUOTE] T-34-85 with more health. Yay. The gun is really lacking in that tier.

Holy shit. You guys were not kidding with WOP. It's so.... wonky? I don't think I've ever felt less in control in a game. I was fighting the control scheme every single battle. This is really bad.

Was on Westfield when an E-50M came behind my ass. I escaped by falling down the cliff, taking little damage (~400hp or so). The E-50M, after watching me for a little while, got courageous and jumped down with me, only to get stuck in a hole and I just turned and blasted him in 2 shots.

Going to be grinding the shit of of the AMX 12 and then the french arty over the next few days. Second thing, anyone recall seeing Timebomb around anymore? He's been in the clan for 479 days, yet only has 3300 battles. Oh yes, and a M40/M43 If he is gone, it would be wonderful if someone could get hold of his info.

I don't have the dosh to blow on gold shells for clan wars all the time and gold shells are the only thing that would keep my tank competitve. 2. My programming course is very accelerated. I do about a week's worth of work every day. It keeps me pretty busy.
