RE: World of Tanks - ryoken - 01-16-2013
I could not help myself. Had a free slot, so just had to re-buy my PIV to go Derpy.
This is first game lol

Got to say the DERP guns are just great. Only used 2 prem rounds this game, and they were on last tank at end to make sure i got Top gun.The rest were all HE.
RE: World of Tanks - Dashiell - 01-16-2013
I kinda like the 155mm. i do better with it than with the 120mm. somehow.
But the T30 is one of those taks that dies when targetted. if you re ignored it can really deal out the hurt. if you r ethe target, you might as well exit battle
RE: World of Tanks - blubba - 01-16-2013
LeFH18B2. Just bought it at half price for a giggle.
First impressions are tier 4 arty guns don't do enough damage!
Seriously though, I do like it. It gets you ready for the speedy larger russian arty coming later...(18km/h at a push).
Just that tier 4 arty seems dominated by the Grille. It's damage is far superior to any other tier 4 arty (Unless I am not reading it properly.
Not got a T30, sorry :-(
Pz4..I liked mine, both before and after the change but sadly, it made way for a german med trainer in the guise of the T25.
Reasonable gun, good bouncy armour if positioned correctly, good earner and can train all my med crews!
Whats not to like?
Currently having a love (T54) hate (E50) affair with tier 9's. T54 works well from the go but the E50 needed the big gun to be effective at it's tier and that costs, including the turret about 100k of experience.
RE: World of Tanks - ryoken - 01-17-2013
Yeah until fully Upgraded the E50 was harsh, but after? Dam it rocks after you get it fully equiped. I Elited mine, so just need to save up 6mil now
Just got my ST1, and first impresions is it really sucks, but still stock, so we will see.I never liked th eT-25, but i had it when it first came out, so maybe they fixed it.
RE: World of Tanks - ryoken - 01-18-2013
Hows everyone else like 8.3, and the china tanks?

imho, WG made a giant boo boo. they just wanna please / enter a giant new market (China) so they slapped in some half -assed China tank tree. While doing that, they fail to fix bugs, or balance other tanks that need it.
the greedyness of WG is becoming quite obvious.

I have to agree. There is sooo many bugs right now that a new tree was last thing we needed.
Has anyone noticed how much less the LOWE/KV5/Type59 makes lately cash wise?
I used to make 50K+ per game on average, but lately i get 15-30K average(these without prem) I play my tier3,4 french prems now, and make almost as much as the 8s in games that are half as long.
They keep offering new prems that are "OP" and killing the older prems so that people buy the new models.
I heard from many in game yesterday that the SP was latest victom, and is no longer bouncing many shots it used to. I faced a few, and thought i was getting lucky, but i guess not lol. Just latest nerf.
I think my biggest WG fail is british Heavy line. Tier 5-7 is basically the same long as hell grind. You just pay over 100K exp for a new gun each time, as tanks are almost identical.
My prem ran out 2 weeks ago, and i just can no longer bring myself to waste another $15.00 I been paying each month for gold to get prem.

They dont listen to the community 1 bit. it's a shame. The game's going downhill on al fronts.
I hope they wake up before it's too late.

I do not think they really care to be honest. They are still raking in a crap load of cash, so they will keep the BS tree's coming, and people will keep buying them.
With every new tree we get something old nerfed, and something new that is OP. People all buy tons of gold to convert exp and get the OP tank, and next patch they nerf it, and bring out a new OP tank. Rinse/repeat.
Problem is there is nothing else out there even close to World of tanks so no compitition for them.

That's because, from the start, this game's purpose has only ever been to make the company money. It's design is structured so that you will put real money into it. You doubt me? Take a look at the difference between money and experience you gain as a free player and a premium player. It's a significantly large one. Secondly, take a look at the difference between damage that ammunition bought with premium currency does and the standard damage of f2p ammo. Again, significant, and in many cases, the premium ammo gives vehicles a damage capacity far in excess of it's historic counterpart. This game is a money trap. I wont say don't play it, just dont pay it. Of course if everyone does that though then the game will just vanish.
If you want an in depth tank simulator, try playing WW2 online (Battleground europe). Sure the graphics suck but the scope of the game is just massive. For those who don't know, it depicts the conflict in europe during ww2 on a persistent map. You play for either axis or allies and are free to play for one of 3 sub divisions of that faction. Army (Including airborne), Navy (Including marines), AirForce. You earn xp and can rank up to unlock new weapons, vehicles and aircraft. The war is run by players, there is a high command, divisions, regiments and squads. Orders and objectives are assigned to each unit and some battles can take days to resolve but you are free to jump in and out of it or any other.
Sure the game is pay to play (there is a limited free option) but unlike WoT it's worth paying for. If you can get past the sub standard graphics then you will find this to be a hugely engrossing experience. Those of you who like the tank side of things will find armored combat far more thrilling than the arcade approach of WoT. And when you have a tank manned by a group of players working together, it adds a level of involvement that WoT comes nowhere near offering
