[QUOTE=DaMastez;34414686]No they ruined the mid tier game as no one needs to play tier 5/6 to make money anymore, thus all the poor mid tier tanks get tossed in with tier 8 and 9 tanks.
Although, high tier games are sort of fucked due to people with tier 8 premiums who don't have a clue how to play.[/QUOTE]
And arty. I refuse to play my E-50 because it simply isn't fun to fight against 3+ T6 arty every game, on top of E-75's and IS-4s.
They should have kept premiums to tier5 and lower, but that obviously wasn't profitable enough for WG. Either way, i don't really mind the tier8 premiums anyway, unless they are in my team. They are perfect target practise.

Me and darkest did a tier 10 platoon yesterday and there was only 7 arties in queue.
Of course our match got 6 out of 7 arties.
So much for spreading them out on other matches.
My lorraine 40t got the first engine and first gun upgrade now, it's more beasty.
This tank will rock with full engine and bat chat gun. Amx 12t and upward series tanks are fantastic and so much fun

The queue counter thing lies. I was in my E-50 and it said there were 2 T10s, then the game loads and there are 6.
Please tell me the Panther gets better with the l/100
[QUOTE=MadCatMkII;34415488]Please tell me the Panther gets better with the l/100[/QUOTE]
it does, but it takes a very difficult playstyle to perform well with it. basically it's a tiger that's faster. You snipe and support and rarely outright engage the enemy; it doesn't have the mobility to scoot away in a pinch and it doesn't have the durability or alpha damage to brawl.
what it does have though, is amazing accuracy sitting still and on the move. you can sometimes put your foot down and mow down a flank like a tiger in a counterattacking role, and it feels great when you do so.
i sold it once because i hated it, rebought it and learned how to use it properly. now i'm only a few thousand from the panther 2. because i pursued the heavy line, i basically have everything for the p2 sans tracks and turret.
I don't see why people make fun of the ammorack, it's more the engine that gets taken out nearly every match

Did you have to get the tracks before getting the engine + gun? i know you don't need the tracks for the upgraded 90mm just wondering what upgrades you can get before getting the tracks.

Longer reload time hinders you more than slower mobility most of the time.

Also what is the waiting period to join another clan after leaving one?

Shot in front you will lose the engine, shot in side you will lose ammo. Welcome to the Panther.

When I played my panther I always would have my ammo rack hit atleast once ever 3 matches, I rarely blew up, but it ruined my reload speed, that was before the took away some of its health. getting engine hits sucks too though.

Still the most frustrating tank I have driven, and I've driven most of the non-French vehicles in the game.

I don't know but i went with the tracks first anyway. The starting 90mm is fine but the tank itself really needs tracks and engine for the speed. You don't have the health to really sit around and take damage so i made mavourability at least with tracks as my priority. I think i may even go for the last 2 engines before i get the bat chat gun.
First game with my new PC, that was unexpected

EDIT : at least it got its matchmaking up'ed because I own one and I'd admit it's over powered.

I like how the AMX13/90 occasionally has totally bullshit kills
Twice I've managed to ammorack an E-75 / KT from full health in 3 shots without losing any health
owning a type 59 = automatic faggot
I don't see how people think the Type-59 is OP'd. My T32 seems to eat them fairly well and my beloved Pershing...I even own one myself...just half the people tiers above me and still shooting HE at me.

They're good against a few other T8's, and destroy all tanks below them, except the T29. But they get their asses handed to them by any T9. They're good against tanks lower then them, suck against tanks higher than them, they don't really belong in the game with that kind of balance.

Pretty much exact same thing as KV-5 except their armor isn't a massive gimmick and their gun has at least a bit decent penetration.
Meeting enemy Type 59's right around a corner is extremely frustrating when you are playing tier 7 medium tanks. I fucking hate them with a passion.
Should I sell my type 59? Didn't buy it, got it with free gold :v:
I wonder if you guys would hate the type 59 just as much if you owned one, or if the T-44 was a premium and there would be just as many of them as there are types atm.
went zipping around the map with a tetrarch, taking potshots and annoying people.
Everyone was so distracted by me that our team won 11 to 2
Why can't I hold all this credit to the team?
Grinding goes so slooowly for me, I just want my damn stug already.
