[QUOTE=Bowser_nl;39158743]That beta thread is hilarious. Orkel posts a picture of a Schmallturm Pz4 wondering what the hell he just saw, people reply "Thats a Luchs!". Beta days where awesome. I remember shitting my pants when I saw my first heavy, a stock KV that raped the shit out of all poor low tier tanks because there was no matchmaking.[/QUOTE]
Oh god the horror of seeing that one guy who had the first VK4502 in my T-46
The first Tiger on the fields was pretty much invulnerable, because 90% of the players were driving tier 3-4 tanks

It wasn't all that long ago they fixed match making. I'm looking for a picture on my computer where I was a T14 (T5 heavy) going against T10s, the worst part is, I'm not the lowest tier.

I even remember his name, Thesnaper.

The other guy that had a tiger really early was Trebs. Thesnaper sucked balls, he stopped playing. Trebs has decent stats and still plays by the looks of it.

What about Baine? Not sure of the name but it was something like that
[QUOTE=Orkel;39158763]This. Autoaim was the only reliable way to hit sideways moving tanks back in the beta warp times.[/QUOTE]
Shot warping was fun, and combined with the HE back then, the A-20 was basically invincible.
9 kills in a tier 8 game. Two tiger II kills and a IS among them.
Also, for everyone on the NA server.
[quote='Mugsy_']Hello folks,
I also looked into this issue and what it comes down to is if you accidentally sell a premium tank and submit a ticket within 24 hours we can probably make an exception for you and do the manual work to get your tank back. However, we do not recover tanks sold in the past.
I understand other servers may have either different policies or ran promotional events but for now that's the official word I am being given.
I know it isn't crowd pleasing and I apologize I can do more at this time. A big part of my role to is advocate and argue on behalf of player sentiment and I will continue to push for you guys.
Any changes in these policies will definitely be announced. [/quote]
I remember those days where we all complained about how bad the Hetzer and KV-1S were.
Good times.
[QUOTE=Orkel;39159056]What about Baine? Not sure of the name but it was something like that[/QUOTE]
Wasn't he an arty fag that was one of the first with the S-51? Pretty sure he was. You also had DIVA or w/e he had an S-51 early too.
[editline]9th January 2013[/editline]
Ah yeah Baine still plays and he's still an artyfag.

Now the Hetzer is one of the most beloved TDs of the game and the KV-1s is close to being OP.(I'm probably going to unlock the long 122mm tomorrow)
well the hetzer was pretty bad without the engine it has now

Well, the Hetzer was bad back then though, it didn't have the 220 HP engine and moved about as fast as a T95 before WG buffed the ground resistance and shit.
The good old (not really that old) days where the KV-2 could meet T9 and 10

Oh look, a Lorraine going full speed at 450 meters

The dicerolls gods were on my side and the Lorraine caught on fire too :v:

I still fondly remember raping Tier 9s with my KV, the pre-7.5 split one, with the 152mm HE round that actually did fucking damage and how I was capable of taking usually only 1 or 2 hits before dying myself and that actually hitting a Lowe in the side with HE and doing 800 damage made me feel like jizzing. Well, I sort of did. In the game.
Just found three old screenshots from the beta. The first (and only top gun) with PzJg, ladies' pictures in the garage and a random pic of the StuG I researched and bought shortly before I uninstalled the beta because of rage caused by shitty matchmaking (and I was kind of dumb, so I had no idea how to cope with some inconveniences).

And hey, I'm in that old thread as well!
Was in a match, ping shot up to 999, was fine for 6 minutes, and than shot to 60 ping, everyone froze, and than I got kicked out of the game back to the login screen, on NA server.
What's going on?
[QUOTE=Rollup;39154958]But still, "T" Russian and "T" US are confusing, though not same numbers yet.[/QUOTE]
One of them has a hyphen. Confusion over.
[QUOTE=cr2142;39155897]really wanna get the t59[/QUOTE]
Oh my god :suicide:
Well the Type 59 [I]can[/I] be shortened to T59 since there's no other tank that shares that number in game.

thought it was just me, something tweaked out for me and caused my whole system to crash, right as I flanked behind a T110E3 in my 13-90 too

Not sure EU server was having ping issues earlier. Cleaning lady must be making her rounds, unplugging servers so she can vacuum underneath them.

I think consistency is more important than relying on context. It makes the other tank names more confusing if sometimes it's okay and sometimes it isn't.
Am I playing the KV-1 right?

this is after he complained he couldn't go into sniper mode (just for that game)
how how how how fucking how
the game before this we lost and i did better why does this always happen
how do i always do bad and win but do good/ok and lose what is this

Love having a game where I can do 4k damage or so and then go into the next game and die before even seeing the enemy because of high tier sniper tanks and shitty map (campinovka)
but of course, only 2050xp to go until I unlock the vk4502P so why not just make it take that bit longer! It's like drinking fecal matter wine and pausing to take in the aroma of 97xp. Mnnn
kv2 or kv1s go
105 HEAT needs to go.
[QUOTE=Crumpet;39160072]kv2 or kv1s go[/QUOTE]
KV-1S
[QUOTE=goon165;39160121]105 HEAT needs to go.[/QUOTE]
Probably. I kinda suck so whenever I've tried it it's all bounces and zero damage penetrations, but other people report having a lot of success with it. :v:
[QUOTE=Yuskolov123;39160147]KV-1S[/QUOTE]
does kv2 derp have heat
oh yes it does bet that shit is expensive
ninja
[QUOTE=Crumpet;39160212]does kv2 derp have heat[/QUOTE]
Yes, it does
You can look this up on the wiki
The 152 does indeed have HEAT rounds, but it's inaccurate so you're just as likely to miss as you are to ruin someone's day.
