:why:
Oh man, just scored 6 kills in my M41 is a 8.3 game.
What a thrill.
So, remember how I said tank VR was trash? Well I thought I could remedy it by bringing only TDs, namely the new hotness of the Pakwagen. Brought some ducks for a claustrophobia simulator.
And you know what. I actually had [I]fun.[/I]

I love that the telescopic sights actually function by you physically moving your head to them. Its a small thing, I know, but for some reason its my favorite thing about playing WT in VR :v:

Scopes are buggy as fuck in VR :disappoint:
More often than not the scale is all wrong when flying the duck.

Doom's just tired at doing the events, you wouldn't believe the regular amount of salt we had to hear from him
What the hell have you been running to do this event, it was a piece of cake for me :v:
I've had ridiculous amount of success and fun with KV-220 + T-V + SU-6 + IL-10 + Yak-9UT CARB lineup, in the previous stage, I had both ground and air missions done in under 2 hours total.
If the SP cost on KV-220 is 400 or 450, start with that, if it's not, start with T-V and keep the KV-220 for cleaning up people's weaker second spawns.
Salt the wounds carved out of the enemy teams by either of your tanks liberally using the SU-6 and IL-10 idiot dusters. In case of [I]excessive[/I] enemy air superiority by the time you make it into the plane (SU-6 can still easily brush one or two Thunderbolts off the sky before you start sweeping the ground), rake in the saucy overloaded allied planes in the Yak-9UT. If trying for 2k scores or just caring for the victory, feel free to return to the other tank, if the enemy hasn't yet caved in.

1. Fuck you.
2. It was mostly the mix of having a full time job and the disconnect with how easy plane challenges were solo. I usually got those done in about 4-6 matches in under an hour.

Replay if anyone's bored enough to actually watch something like this:

My smoke-assault near the beginning of the match was pretty amusing at least.
Ok, a few matches in. Type 58 is good. If they mess with the belt or BR it'll be less good. As it stands, you're a Hellcat/ZSU-37 hybrid. It can be ridiculous if you catch people off-guard, but you'll melt to a stern glare and still struggle with most frontal profiles.
You can delete an entire enemy team in record time if they're all engaged and you flank them in RB, but you can just as fast die to someone swinging a .50 around on you or an SPAAG that spawns behind you and vomits in your general direction.
Goddamn WN8 padders, and their sealclubbng Caliopes!
But seriously, good thing WT doesn't things like XVM, this shit ruins WoT.

[quote]Type 65 AA: bug fixed, where vehicle was able to fire with gunner knocked out;
Type 65 AA: 37mm BR-167P shell clip is now identical to ZSU-37 gun 61-K - one HVAP-T round to two HEFI-T rounds.

Watch as they don't do anything to help the completely disgustingly slow grind speed as the trees get even longer
Back to grinding Doom.
No planes for now, but they are confirmed.
Grind will be the same as for era 5 for now. Once they get more vehicles in game they are reducing RP and credit costs of vehicles below era 6.

If you look in the comments the staff said that grinding will be close to rank 5 and not harder, I dunno what that's worth though.

I'm somewhere between excited and really worried for my sanity, as I've only [I]just[/I] touched Rank IV for USA tanks (and no one else)
welp. interested to see what kinds of tanks and planes we get though.

French tanks should get interesting: AMX30's maybe?
[editline]edited[/editline]
lots of interesting AMX30 variants/prototypes, I have a bad feeling that the AMX30 w/ ACRA missile kit will be a premium tank whenever the french tree actually fucking appears
