World of Tanks - Chinese Bootleg Edition - Games

[QUOTE=scout1;39666101]Yeah you're gonna have to explain how OP it is[/QUOTE] While not OP, once fully upgraded it's a very decent pocket heavy. It has enough penetration to deal with most tanks it comes across, and with the right angles it can bounce and soak up quite a bit of damage.

[QUOTE=Skwee;39666153]maybe they were bad[/QUOTE] Probably, cause I am playing the SEA servers.

matildas infuriate me in my valentine ii because it's a friggin IS-4 in tier 4 matches and takes APCR to the lower rear to kill luckily they're not all that common but come on

The main problem with the Matilda is that it get puts against tanks it really has no business fighting(It's absolutely horrendous when you get put into Tier VI battles because you're nothing but a slow moving target) and most of the time it's too slow to have any real impact on a battle and the poor excuse for a howitzer that is supposed to be it's top gun sucks balls.

[QUOTE=Crumpet;39663152]Why would you buy a tiger over a P? Isn't it like better in every way?[/QUOTE] I have played through both and though the Tiger P is by no means a bad tank, the Tiger H is superior overall. It especially shines when you have to face tanks of a higher tier than you: the mobility of the Tiger H will save you more often than the armor of the Tiger P (especially now that most people have figured out you shoot Tiger Ps in the turret). If you learn how to angle armor well (a skill that is vital if you have any hope of grinding the german trees) the Tiger H will win out everytime.

I've noticed that in general, the pen and damage creep in guns has basically obsoleted the more armored tanks. Speed is usually more useful unless a tank has enough armor frontally to ding just about anything it meets.

[QUOTE=scout1;39666101]Yeah you're gonna have to explain how OP it is[/QUOTE] Amazing armor, batshit laser beam gun. The gun has 0.36 accuracy, 121mm penetration at tier 4, and 1341m/s projectile speed. It's basically a tier 4 Konish (It uses undercaliber barrel converter). The armor is amazing, having shell eating spaced sides and sturdy complex front. The speed is the only thing Matilda rather lacks, but it doesn't stop it from being amazing. Matilda was the most fun tank I have encountered on Brit heavy line where I am at elited Caernarvon now. I am considering rebuying it.

You can stick out your side at autobounce angle without much trouble, and the frontwards turret means you can play corner games with your 200mm hull at 45 degrees to bounce antsy tier 9 tanks before rolling up and taking a shot. I'll gladly take a 30% drop in specific power if it actually forces people to aim at weak points instead of in the tank's general direction. Plus a higher top speed means more fun on hills.

Why is everyone being butthurt about WoWP of course it's shit it's at a early beta stage

[QUOTE=IPK;39667333]Why is everyone being butthurt about WoWP of course it's shit it's at a early beta stage[/QUOTE] Because it's [I]fundamentally[/I] shit, not merely unpolished.

[QUOTE=IPK;39667333]Why is everyone being butthurt about WoWP of course it's shit it's at a early beta stage[/QUOTE] Because War Thunder, which came out after it, is a better game by far, and also shows more potential to develop than WoWP.

Is Mentor pointless? I have it at 88 % but i dont see any improvment in reload time.

[QUOTE=SGTenima123;39667447]Is Mentor pointless? I have it at 88 % but i dont see any improvment in reload time.[/QUOTE] Mentor doesn't influence your tank behavior [B]at all.[/B] It's a metagame perk. It increases the experience yield the rest of your crew (not the commander) receive by up to 10%.

[QUOTE=SGTenima123;39667447]Is Mentor pointless? I have it at 88 % but i dont see any improvment in reload time.[/QUOTE] Mentor slightly increases XP earned. In a 1000 xp game your 88% commander gets 1000 xp and the rest of your crew gets 1088 xp.

Hellooooo baby. [quote]Purchased: 'IS-4' successfully purchased. You have spent credits: 6,100,000.[/quote] [t]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5976204/IS-4.jpg[/t] First battle went well. Nice speed improvement over my ST-I, too. Tempting to use all HEAT, just for fun... [img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5976204/moreS-4.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=IPK;39667333]Why is everyone being butthurt about WoWP of course it's shit it's at a early beta stage[/QUOTE] War Thunder is in beta too and isn't shit at all. And World of Tanks was a good game in beta too. WoWP is just terrible.

wowp is still shit because all controls go through the server before you see it on your own screen and it's fucking horrible.

finally did it, life complete [img]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/920129449269327110/82B7E7062B288F558B07C8ED15F40418F48EC4DE/[/img] [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/920129449269330254/23A56D3159DDE8ADE38D59AA8181743DAB3591F4/[/t]

Cheapest XP cost is from Tiger P at 25,120 XP. From DB 27,740 XP and T6 VK36001h 45,050 XP. The other benefit of going through the Tiger P is that you can get into the higher end of the TD line through the Ferdinand. And Tiger P is a decent tank.

[QUOTE=Psygo;39668029]wowp is still shit because all controls go through the server before you see it on your own screen and it's fucking horrible.[/QUOTE] Indeed, there's something very wrong with the controls. I've played a fair amount of sims and like to think I know what I'm doing when it comes to flying aircraft but somehow in that game I managed to get in a sideways stall. I rolled 90 degrees to turn but then my plane got stuck and wouldn't go any further, the nose somehow lifted and then I stalled and just fell toward the ground sideways with no control at all. So yeah...wasn't impressed lol

Well.... [quote] KV1 Totally nerfed beyond use The top guns on the KV1 are absolute CRAP. They have nerfed them to the point where playing the KV is a waist of time. I'm hitting other heavy tanks with heat and shaving 7hp off their side. This bullcrap. If WOT does not stop pandering to complainers about "balance" I'm leaving, and taking my money with me. [/quote] Best community.

Damnit i forgot whats the website that tells how much money a tank usualy makes..... Can anyone tell hows it called?

[QUOTE=Ogopogo;39668781]Well.... Best community.[/QUOTE] I bet he mounted the 122mm because it had the biggest number (And can't use it properly because the gun is rapey anyway)

im thinking 85mm with he

[QUOTE=Orkel;39669995]Test patch 2 is out.[/QUOTE] - Fixed bug of E-100 lower frontal armoring. Hrm? - Price of 183mm HESH shell of British TD FV215b(183) increased by 20 gold. Holy dicks

Because shell cost is really gonna stop people from using the broke 183mm gold shells.

[QUOTE=scout1;39670073]- Fixed bug of E-100 lower frontal armoring. Hrm? [/QUOTE] Fixed bug in a German tank. It's a nerf for sure.

DONT WORRY GUYS ITS OK ITS BALANCED

My question about WoWS is, what era is it supposed to be in? Is it mainly WWII? Because I can't think of a single Russian naval battle outside of submarine assaults upon the occasional Japanese convoy. But, knowing wargaming, they'll pull some shit out of their nostrils.
