[QUOTE=goon165;34254585]HEY GUYS what'd I miss in the three days since my house burned down?[/QUOTE] What happened? Is everything alright?
How did your house burn down? I've had a housefire before as a result of the malfunctioning of an electrical socket, but I can't imagine the stress of your entire house being gone [editline]17th January 2012[/editline] Also if I have enough to buy a new better tank but can't afford the 75% training should I do it or not [editline]17th January 2012[/editline] I just did it Pzkpfw 35 (t) here I go

Mechwarrior Online...? AWESOME. Still, I want to play tanks with you. Punch your insurers in the dick for not getting you a replacement pc and house sooner.

Two Alarm Electrical fire, we still don't know what caused it because there's no wiring in the area where it started. I'm sitting on the first floor, grandfather is in the kitchen and I'm in my mother's bed reading my Problem Sleuth books, my two brothers are both downstairs both asleep, everyone else is out. I hear a pop, after a bit the smoke detector goes off I check the basement and the first floor find nothing and then run upstairs (through all of this my grandfather is walking around like "the fuck is going on?") I see smoke as soon as I open the door and when I get to the top of the stairs I take one look at the kitchen and I see the glow of the fire and a few flames shooting out from the other side of the room (my view is obstructed by the fridge) so OH FUCK. I ran back downstairs catching my grandfather on the way down and tell him to call 911 (Thankfully the neighbors had already called) ran down to the basement and woke booth my brothers up and grabbed the extinguisher on the way back up with my brothers and the first one was a dud, by the time we got the second one shit was too big so we grabbed the pets and my grandfather got out by that time the first firefighters had arrived and they whacked the roof open and hosed the fucker down. Most of the damage from the fire it'self is upstairs, the kitchen and bathroom are gutted, and everything else on the floor is pretty fucked. Water damage from the hoses is what got the rest of the house, AND IT ALL FLOWED DOWNSTAIRS STRAIGHT INTO MY SHIT. my brother's laptop was floating, shit was ankle deep, manage to get my HDD but that's about it. So now shit's gonna be fucking uncomfortable for a while, lots of shuffling around with relatives, getting us a new place for the meantime while the place gets rebuilt might take up to three weeks. shit's pretty stressed right now, but we'll be fine, no internet tanks though, any news on 7.2?

What's not funny is that it actually happened :C.
:( [editline]17th January 2012[/editline] also, i imagined goon shouting into a crappy mic "WHAT THE FUCK" with lots of lossy too-loud sound im weird
holy shit, malinovka with tetrarch. Our team has 2 AFK tanks (these have a big role in this victory), get a good 8 kills and me and 3 others charge towards their camp with 2 enemies defending. We take out the Pz35t out without trouble and we try to cap. Only one tank tries to cap with me and the other 2 just die doing nothing to the pzh38 (the premium one). While this is happening another pz35t is capping our side... the other living tank takes the pzh38 down to 5% and dies so I killed him. Now, the capping enemy tank does NOT destroy our AFK tanks so he is constantly spotted, and I proceed to spam shells towards his general direction. With the third to last shell I hit him and hide behind a wreck of an ally and win.
[QUOTE=joost1120;34254186]The KV-3 has 80 HP more, which barely makes a difference. Your gun doesn't ding on either one, unless you manage to hit the KV-1S' turret, which dings pretty much everything, including Jagdtiger once.[/QUOTE] KV-3 has better armor than IS. It's turret can casually ding JagdTiger shells, all the time, and it's front is really sturdy as well.
[QUOTE=fishyfish777;34253846]I don't understand how people say the AMX 13/75 is so good (even after getting it fully upgraded and with 100% crew). Any type 59 that gets killed by one or even loses even a single point of health should be ashamed. The 13/90 and up, however - you don't stand a chance in a dogfight, but if you can stick to a piece of cover and hit the tracks / engines you have a reasonable chance of winning a peekaboo fight.[/QUOTE] Because being a master peekabooer takes skill.
Since I assume you can play this game with friends, you guys should play with me after school today :smile:
hahaha [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ivPsK.jpg[/IMG] also stock T-44 is just as fast as the types, nice
I fucking take back anything I said about the fucking bdr, it's amazing now that I finally got the 90. Penetrating tigers, t34s and kv-5s everyday. Also just had a moment where I was running away from a is-4 and when he finally caugh up with me, BOUNCE. Fucking laughed my ass off.

[QUOTE=goon165;34257989]Leman Russ here.[/QUOTE] Yesterday someone mentioned it and I said that referring the bdr to a leman russ is a fucking disgrace, but now that I got this 90 I take that back. Can't believe that I actually want to play the arl44 now.
Well I got my KV last night; so far I've not been impressed, but this is largely because I am using Stock Gear and I keep on getting put against IS-3s and that kind of stuff(thanks alot MM). But I'm going to keep working on it because I know very well of what it's capable of once it gets fully upgraded(I've probably been one-shotted by KVs more than I have any other tank in this tank outside of arty). Currently the first priority for me is to get the 122mm, I already have it researched and I just need to get the tracks so I can mount it onto the tank and then after that I' work on getting the infamous derp gun.

[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;34256431]KV-3 has better armor than IS. It's turret can casually ding JagdTiger shells, all the time, and it's front is really sturdy as well.[/QUOTE] I really doubt that one. I only bounced it once in my stock KV-1S, which has the same gun as the stock KV.

TIER 9 EVERYDAY. Especially since it takes 18k exp just to get a good gun. Matchmaking should take into account of the fucking gun the tank is using, same with oh they got a higher tier arty we better give the other team two arties that got the same damage output as the higher tier arty or the exact opposite. Just how the fuck did they manage to fuck matchmaking up so much from the closed beta.

That and Wargaming.net(And a good majority of the WoT Community) claims that MM is working the way it should.

The BDR should never get into anything higher than Tier 7 matches.
[QUOTE=goon165;34258314]I think each tank should have matchmaking especially tuned to it rather than blanket values for most tanks. [/QUOTE] the balancing and tweaking required for something like that would take assloads of work considering how many tanks there are and how they'd have to tune every tank for every other tank
[QUOTE=Orkel;34258328]the balancing and tweaking required for something like that would take assloads of work considering how many tanks there are and how they'd have to tune every tank for every other tank[/QUOTE] well it's more of tightening the back end of the matchmaking spread for each tank, there are a few special cases but for the most part sub tier 5 matchmaking is pretty balanced, but as soon as you get to tier 5 shit hits the fan and tanks wind up in higher tier matches where they can do barely anything and are essentially cannon fodder. Max matchmaking value for every tank should be +2 of that vehicle's tier. and if we have problems with vehicles being to powerful for their tier (french lights) [B]MAKE THEM HIGHER TIERS, THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT OF THE SYSTEM[/B]
Here's a thought, British Tanks - How would the Little Wille fight exactly? Its only got machine guns.
