[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;23245827]Ahaha, I just had the best round ever. It was on that open map with the trains, we all (And I mean [I]everybody[/I]) went to the right and charged into their base. We had like 8 tanks circling around the flag at once. :v:[/QUOTE] I think I was on the opposing team. I got to your base then realised your team had already capped our flag to 90 :P

Wow, I just got teamkilled twice in a row... And this is the first time I've been TK'd. I don't understand why it's a bannable offense, yet they still include it in the game.

I got a key but don't think I'll download it yet.

[QUOTE=Yeojsav;23246089]I got a key but don't think I'll download it yet.[/QUOTE] Thanks for that great explanation of why.

I just realized how fucking Awesome the trailers are. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5u5mUHIt4IE&feature=related[/media] [editline]11:50PM[/editline] Notice how I capitalized awesome.

wow this game pissed me off faster than any game ever before my first 2 rounds consisted of me dieing in the first 2 minutes before i even saw an enemy tank, then the next round was me sitting back hoping i won't die only for the game to suddenly end because apparently they snuck around the open field and then when i finally get to fire at an enemy tank i come head to head with a lagging tank, fire a shot and nothing happens, he shoots his fucking machinegun AT over-powered bullshit at me and im already half dead, by the time i get a second shot off that actually damages him and brings him down to 70% his bullshit machine gun has already reloaded and i'm dead and being seen through walls is bullshit, i could've easily snuck behind an enemy tank but of course he sees me because of this shitty red triangle

I fucking love my tank. [IMG]http://i879.photobucket.com/albums/ab355/Dbuhoss/aea628a1.png?t=1278745782[/IMG] [editline]10:10AM[/editline] Also, I always fall in the losing team, no matter what.

[QUOTE=JerryK;23246531]and being seen through walls is bullshit, i could've easily snuck behind an enemy tank but of course he sees me because of this shitty red triangle[/QUOTE] I actually do agree with this. It's really frustrating how you can't pick off people, because as soon as you approach one from behind, they know exactly where you are.

[QUOTE=Morcam;23246777]I actually do agree with this. It's really frustrating how you can't pick off people, because as soon as you approach one from behind, they know exactly where you are.[/QUOTE] I agree. The should: 1) Make all tanks possible to be seen, no matter if they are "spotted" (so you can foresee incoming enemies far away). 2) Remove the selector. There is no reason to see enemy health. 3) Red dots on minimap appear only if your/friendly tank directly sees an enemy. 4) NERF ARTILLERY godstrikes.

[QUOTE=broo20;23245660]God damnit, why couldn't the download be a torrent? It's taking so long![/QUOTE] Actually there is a torrent, albeit unofficial: [url]http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/5676383/World_of_Tanks_beta_client[/url] Also does it count as warez if it's free? [editline]08:59AM[/editline] Also why is the bigdownload download always corrupt? :(

Artillery makes me want to throw my computer off a cliff.

You basically just summed up all the major problems in the game.

Yeah, the only reason they have the spotting thing is because of how powerful SPGs would be if they could see everyone on the map.

make the game about arty's tia.

Everyone is complaining about artillery (I know that it can be frustrating when getting one-shotted) but it's really, really easy to counter. If you have light/fast-moving tanks on your team, rush their base (where the arty most likely is) and it shoot it in the ass. You can dance around it and he can't do anything about it (turret turn speed too slow).

[QUOTE=danko;23247315]Yeah, the only reason they have the spotting thing is because of how powerful SPGs would be if they could see everyone on the map.[/QUOTE] I think he means that you would be able to see anyone anywhere on the map, but spotting range would still be in effect. Obviously you wouldn't get any pretty triangles through walls from infinite range.

You can't rush alone, because that's a suicide, even on fastest tanks. And even then, Artillery is protected by a few campers who can easily hit you, since the stand still and hidden.

I remember when I rushed with my trusty standard upgraded russian tank and shot one TD and one SPG in the ass :D.

How long did it take you guys to get your activation email after registering on the main site? It's been about 7 hours for me, still nothing. I can't sign up again because it says all my details are already in use etc, so it obviously worked. They just haven't sent my damn email.

Damnit I'm stuck on this crappy netbook until Friday, so I have to sit here reading about people having fun.

Huh, ah well, I just tried again with a different email, got it instantly this time. I guess my other one just got lost in the 'tubes.

It'd be nice if they had a level system so new people can play with other new people rather than trying to kill someone who's been playing the game for ages.

Upgraded my Marder II with a 75mm gun, finally I can do some damage to those larger tanks in standard battles.

It's called recruit battles. Only tier 1 and 2 tanks allowed.
