Just had a very cool game on Lakeville in my T29. Shitpub heavies all went valley and road, leaving me and a couple of low-tier mediums to defend the city. From the upper road, took out a KV and put two up the arse of an IS-3 who drove past below me. Enemy T29 doubled back from the lower city, tracked me while I was turning around and instead of taking advantage of my sweet sweet backside he attempted some bullshit drive-by manoeuvre. I felt a sense of paternal responsibility towards the shitpub and schooled him in the way of manoeuvre, angling and shooting. Moved down past the church to eliminate the IS-3 who'd been playing peekaboo with our PzIV, returned to base to swat a couple of flies, instructed the PzIV to cap while I waded through the corpses of the slain in the lakeside road. PzIV waved hello to the last enemy T29 and I put him down with one through the collar.
Steel wall, top gun and 105,000 credits
Went one on one with M6 in a M36. Kept shooting his sides with 20% remaining. Retard never bothered to turn his front.

might as well give away your GW2 to someone

Haven't used the M36 in a long time, but does the thing still bounce stuff like crazy?

uninstall it. now.
it's for the best.
Telia switched WoT traffic to the shitlines about 20 minutes ago. My ping, and that of my countrymen, jumped from stable 250 to unstable 350 + constant packet loss. I guess we've finally been thrown to the wolves for not switching to SEA.
Oh wow. Had a fight with my JagdTiger against a JagdTiger that kept using HE against me. His first shot was AP that penetrated my lower glacis doing over 500 damage but then he switched to HE for an unknown reason. I kept hitting his lower glacis doing the full AP damage and he kept shooting HE at my frontal armor doing 30 damage max per hit.

But the headquarter isn't recharged yet, so what's the point?
Right.
That feel when you want to go hull down but the cover is one inch taller than your turret.

[QUOTE=zenith777;37083250]Situation: Malinovka Defence. There's 3 tanks defending the western flank, me and 2 tanks defending the eastern flank (we are all fast tanks) and rest of the team sit on the hill as usual. We only get 2 tanks against us on the eastern flank and we 3 decide to flank the enemy as our arty and hillbillies are keeping the enemy pinned down by the western flank and enemy is nowhere near the base.

Oh god the amount of idiots that have no strategic sense at all.[/QUOTE]
I was top of the team in my KV-2 on Malinovka Defence. I immediately rolled downhill west and KV-1, camping on the hill went "OMG DON'T RUSH, DEFEND!".
I ended up with 4 kills, surviving the match, winning it after we killed the last KV-1S, while he died without a single kill.

I started playing WoT while I waited for the Red Orchestra 2 release, look where that got me...
Fuck some friendly French arty fucked me up in my stug while I was trying to help out a D2 and amx38, of course he fires at the sherman i'm attacking hits my tracks then bam Sherman, and their arty rain upon me and the arty that tracked me magically ran out of shells after he tracked me so I got so fucked.
I'm starting to think that the arty players pick the targets only by looking at the enemies efficiency. I was in my Money printer (Löwe) and there were M103, KV-4 and IS-6 next to me and the arty decided to only shoot at me. It was clear that the arty was aiming only at me as he shot at me about 4 times. I don't have XVM installed as I want to have faith in pubbies and don't want the win percentages to influence my tactics. I checked the other guys efficiency after the battle and noticed that they all had less than 1200 efficiency while I had over 1600 with löwe and over 1300 overall.
no they don't
they pick targets by ease of shootiness
[QUOTE=Mastahamma;37088195]no they don't

That doesn't make any sense at all as there were 3 better targets than me on the open and he still chose to shoot at me. That M103 shot 2 T30s while the arty was too keen on me and that caused us to win the match.

Well to be honest, as a 212 I tend to shoot money printers (especially those damn Type 59s) over other T8s.
If there was a M103 sitting right next to the Löwe and it was in my firing angle I'd certainly shoot it.

sweet. now every time i set my reticule settings it resets every time I close the game. Is there a mod fixing this issue?

Don't know, I never had that issue. Is it because you installed XVM? XVM is a bit of a pain to set up if you don't read the instructions carefully.

I have seen that happen to me on the other tanks too so I guess some pubbies have started shooting tanks based on the tanks efficiency.
You know it's gonna be a fun day when vk3601's short 88 pens your ferd's frontal
I really wish that I had went with the Jadgpanther II instead, if I just had known that it would come so early. I thought that it would come along with the rest of the second german TD tree. I don't want to spend 50K credits on researching engines that I will never use on another tank, but the Ferdi is just so horribly slow that it looses out on exp and kills because of it.

Right now the Ferdi is a joke without the top gun, while the Jagd 2 seems to hold itself up in whatever fight it's thrown in. Must be the sloping and the ability to[B] turn around[/B].

JagdPanther II being cited with [I]any[/I] armor advantage? I faced it with KV-5 and easily penetrated straight through the frontal chassis.
Ferdi is immune to KV-5 fire into everything from front except the (albeit at close range easy to hit) sloped corners and lower glacis plate.

Perhaps, if you managed to hide yourself superstructure deep, then yeah, but the 100mm thick front hull is pretty weak.
I still think it can be a brilliant tank, just not well armored at tier 8.

Making a config can be a pain, simply because the way the config file is set up is weird. I really wish they had stuck with the XML config file over target markers had.
But yea, installing the thing is super easy.
