It's very easy to do that if you go out rather than up (which is to say if you play a bunch of different tanks instead of just focusing on a few). And there's nothing wrong with that.
[QUOTE=Crumpet;39109480]49 ---> 46 fml
and yeah it doesnt seem like too good of an idea seeing as i need 50k xp for the VK28

Efficiency is skewed at less than 1k matches.
orkel i still don't understand your reasoning behind using w/l as a skill indication
sure someone with a higher win loss is likely to be better but since you cant single handedly influence a battle (with the exception of that vk2801 guy) couldnt you just do well and have bad teams? or you could be absolute shit but win more often than not

He made an account, played a game where, got multiple lucky kills and didn't come back again for a few days. XVM couted the stats based on that 1 match and voila.
Seriously, I own some really cursed tanks which just have abysmal win rates yet good experience averages..
do the losses ever stop
just got up the hill on prokhorovka or whatever and 6 of my team are down
WHAT THE FUCK CAN I DO ABOUT THIS

i told you man, law of large numbers. after thousands of battles, the only thing that stays constant in every battle, is you. everything else is random. you're the only constant that can influence it out of that flat line, up or down.

win/lose might not be a pure indicator of skill but it tells you that person wins more than they loses and if you get a bunch of people that win more than they lose on one side you're more likely to win than lose
[editline]5th January 2013[/editline]
more likely, mind you, because recently I seem to be winning more 30% win chance games than I do 60% win chance games for some odd reason

the shit teams stay constant

having only started playing recently, i know i have got better as i know how shit i used to do
here is my problem, some days i can have a spree of good games and just do well every game, get off a lot of damage and kill a few enemies. other days i just do consistently shit and lose and lose a lot of the games, lowering morale and plunging me deeper and deeper into shit
how can i make this consistent? will i just improve over time until it becomes consistent seeing as my skill level has increased A LOT since i started, i used to just do awful but i know that has changed.

another damn question sorry. can anyone explain how the ammo works with its penetration values?
is the penetration value of the gun the max value or is it overridden by the pen value of the ammo type?
e.g, your guns max pen is 210. you pick premium shells and it says their pen is 270, so which value does it use?
Does anyone know of any good model swaps/skins for the Panther-M10? Everything I find is either shit or doesn't work.
I can get some of the regular Panther model replacements to replace the Panther-M10's model with a historically accurate regular Panther, but none of the texture work transfers over.

Penetration values vary by +-25% of the average of said ammo type. You can see the minimum and maximum values in the ammunition buying window, and the average value by right-clicking on the gun (example: 165/200/50 would be AP/gold/HE in most tanks).
Also, penetration of armor varies by how armor is angled, spaced armor, tracks in the way, shell normalization, and so on (explained in detail on the wiki, forums, and youtube)
my entire team went to the cap right away and left me and a kv1 at the encounter
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

if i could give you a replay of this game i would just to prove the fact i could not do anything.
i went to the usual spot for the TDs at the encounter and instantly got lit up. down to 65hp so i retreat. the kv1 dies without spotting any so i set up again further back hoping to get some hits off. then, the unspotted armada rolled through the pass, so i flip shit and try to move off again but die. i died like 2 mins into the game, i only took the screenshot after i decided i should stop watching which was a fair few minutes later hence why you can't see any tanks
so yeah, probably
Steppes is map prone to having uncovered flanks, unfortunately. Same for Murovanka, Abbey.

I'm getting the feeling that the British are going to have a lend lease branch(es) given all the images I've seen. I'm willing to bet we'll see something like
Tier 3- Stuart
Tier 4- Grant
Tier 5- Ram/Sentinel AC1
Tier 6- Firefly/Sentinel AC4
And this kids.

Just when I thought I wouldn't be dealing with the Lee forever once I researched the T1 and M4...ugh...isn't the Grant more of a target due to its larger turret? Does it actually have any benefits over the M3 Lee?...
Grant has a smaller profile, not larger.
[editline]6th January 2013[/editline]
Well, it doesn't have the enormous commander's cupola at least.

I know its slightly shorter but its turret is a lot fatter and harder to hide. Damn american tumors.

Its turret also has thicker armor and no cupola. A few early screenshots of the thing make it seem like it will be able to mount some other weapon.

SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT HERE.
I just had the most intense battle I've ever played.
Battle Achievements: De Langlade's Medal, Radley-Walters's Medal, Steel Wall, Top Gun, Defender
All was going well, we were winning 9 to 7, the KV-13, KV-1S and JagdPzIV were all heading off to cap... then the northern defense crumbled rapidly, while an enemy JgPanther (who died) and Hummel managed to kill off my team's cappers, leaving me all on my own to face a Tiger, a Panther, a T29, a VK3001H, and a Hummel.
The Panther never saw me coming, the Tiger, T29, and VK3001H were all trying to cap our point, so I made short work of them (stopped them at 98% cap) while bouncing their shots... leaving me and a Hummel in a game of cat and mouse, where I felt like the mouse due to being on such low health and him being a fucking Hummel.
I managed to wait him out until he started capping and pull off what felt like a fluke shot, winning the game and feeling like a hero, aside from my hands shaking so badly I missed my first good shot on the Hummel as he was speeding off to my cap.

If there's one thing I've learned while playing the Locust, it's that while it may be OP, the Heatzer is completely broken.
