Please, can I punch you?
[editline]23rd February 2013[/editline]
just few times
[editline]23rd February 2013[/editline]
I mean, I get you are doing this for the right cause and so
but
I just really need to punch somebody like that
I play better (not too well) in actual tanks than I do in arty, I'm hopeless
Probably a good thing, I'll never become an arty player because I'm too shit at it hah
Eugh. I'm not sure if something's wrong with me, but every time I try to advance up the American lines, I'll just get to a point where I go 'nope, I don't want that' and sell the tank I'm on. Happened with the Sherman and the Chaffee, and I just [i]know[/i] I'll have the same reaction to the T25/2, so... is their heavy line really that good? I'm kind of sick of the Russian hurrinaccurate durrslowaim guns on their heavies, but I want something other than the French glass gunslingers to pull a team with.

US Heavy Line -> Best Tier 7, Arguably Best Tier 8, Arguably Best Tier 9, Arguably Best Tier 10 Heavy
I bought an S-51 on test server.
Never again.
I ruined lives with that thing.
Me and Just4fun held the pain olympics on the test server.
Each had a top tier arty and we had a competition on who can tally the most crits over multiple games.

Don't worry, I am [I]awful[/I] with artillery, myself.
Most probably because I can't stand playing it the "proper" way and always end up dicking around, going TDmode, and trying to hunt for light tanks.

T110E5 is just op and makes IS-7, IS-4 and M48A1 simply redundant.
I've never really understood how to play medium tanks, when I play a medium tank, I ask my self two things : do I just go normal heavy route and be gimped? Or do I just wait out and see how it folds and push my luck to shift to an aggressive or camping route.
Either way I have to admit its pretty hard and so much more on making a correct decision. Arh too many decisions to make, e.g should I circle that heavy? 0__0. Playing heavies is so much more easier than playing a medium.
so whats the Panther M10 like then? Want to get it since its on offer...
It's shame I've had a massive struggle with T29. I just cannot hit that well with the gun, I had much more fun in the M6 actually. It's only just recently that my play with the T29 is sufficiently decent.
The T29 is like one of the best tanks in its tier.
The gun is godly, and when you go hulldown you're nearly invincible.
Anyone know when the game's "day" resets? I was moving through tank lines and selling old ones, and hit my limit. Now it's the next day and I'm ready to advance through multiple lines, but can't because of the daily selling limit, and I've got no free space.

Would be godly if it hit shit for me. Seriously, I have a much better time of guns that are actually less accurate.

when it hits midnight for you
And for fucks sake. came on after a week of not playing this game. had around 20 games already and i have won only like 2-3 of them, and for the majority of them I have been killed by fucking arty.
uh this game...

Oh, lame. I noticed I had hit that limit before midnight, too. Guess I'll play tomorrow!
God im so bad at arty, when when the thing is ALL THE WAY aimed in, the shell just slightly misses and does 200 splash instead :(
At least there is no reason for me to play arty, heh
On a side note, did the E50 depression get fixed in this test?
Im sure they said something about fixing it for round 2
I never found the gold ammo on KV-5 all that useful. The pen bonus is barely worth the abysmal cost at the mediocre damage per shell it does.

It bumps the pen up from 170~ to 220~
Well worth it. Still KV-5 is amazing with silver.

Pretty much my point.
It's helpful and everything, but I still feel like it doesn't justify the cost.
I played some 1500 battles without gold ammo, so suddenly taking it feels weird.

Honestly if it's available and you don't need to worry about cost you might as well bring it and spank the enemies even harder.

Pretty much this, ever since gold ammo for credits became a thing, I always bring a few of them with just in case of those what-if moments.
So do I, I personally load 15 APCR on KV-5, and ocassionally just empty it, but then I have a brief moment of self loathing and grief for the lost 60k credits.

Gold shells
[editline]23rd February 2013[/editline]
That's the third top gun since I started playing my KV-5 like this a couple hours ago
[QUOTE=Shogoll;39687863]US Heavy Line -> Best Tier 7, Arguably Best Tier 8, Arguably Best Tier 9, Arguably Best Tier 10 Heavy[/QUOTE]
T110E5 isn't even arguably the best, is straight up [I]is[/I] the best tier 10 heavy. As for Tier 9 I'd have to give that to the E-75 though.
Alright, alright, trying it myself.
[QUOTE=Shogoll;39688802]Helpful image guide[/QUOTE]
For those of you who, like myself, don't own a KV-5, you can do this with a T14 as well. Its armor + plus speed is already insane, when you add in the fact that you can pen 99% of the tanks at T5 and 6 with gold ammo, its ludicrous how effective you become.

I think your games broken, APCR is only 2k on the kv-5?

[quote]Of course, its also plain to me I underestimated gold spam. In the past I thought it would give a very minor increase to DPG if the player aims well. That was clearly wrong. In my regular play, I virtually never spam gold, but when I did, I can usually see a ~25% increase in DPG. That would jump my average t8 from 2000 DPG to 2500 DPG, which would probably jump my win rates from ~75% to 80% with ease. That's huge, and has certainly pushed back the maximum solopub win rate. But even without gold, I attained 69% over 300 games in my KV-5.[/quote]
Interesting post here by Garbad regarding DPM's correlation to gold rounds. They really make a way larger difference than you would expect. Not having to aim, or being able to take on pretty much anything frontally gives you great flexibility in using your DPM to its maximum potential.

Prem Rounds are 50% off on NA atm, which is mostly the reason I'm making profit while running this set up.
