This game is euro-trash, abuse simulator slop played by the most braindead mouthbreathers in existence. Everyone who likes it is a cuck with stockholm syndrome who should be forcefully uninstalled from life.

It's definitely sunk cost simulator. Even with how trashy the game is becoming over the years, I haven't found a good large arena alternative that have a large dedicated population like world of tanks (15k~ players on NA servers) or else I'd hop to that in a heartbeat

How come while the west makes hero shooter slop they can't copy WoT, a successful game, and just make it more generous/better? Gachas literally copy games all the time, but just make them more generous and print money. But no one applies this shit to niche games with jaded player bases?
>>
>>1388363
F2P PC games are on a decline, mobile game games have mostly taken over
I assume copying the all the server calcuation shit from either WOT or War Thunder is too complex, so copycats don't bother with this niche

you're supposed to sit there and take it like a cuck when sending in replays to customer support under physics abuse, in-game reporting does nothing
if you kept your mouth shut and sent in a replay report, you could've banned that guy for around 3 days and block him from the entire consumable sale
>>
>>1396397
>you're supposed to sit there and take it like a cuck
How dare I have self respect. You'd think they'd at least ban the other guy too for provoking me and behaving much worse, but no. I saw just now on tomato.gg that he's logged in within the past hour.
Are the names displayed on the replies next to CS tickets actual names of support staff or just placeholders?
>>
>>1396570
you didn't say if you actually sent in a replay, and as already mentioned in-game reporting does nothing
forgot to mention that you have to timestamp when it happened in the game timer, support won't bother watching the entire replay waiting for the abuse to happen and will equally chuck out your physics ticket otherwise
if you do any retaliatory physics action towards the pusher when sending in the ticket, you both get banned which is why you have to take it like a cuck
>>
>>1397133
I did send in a replay. Should I make a new ticket since I didn't include timestamps? The offense happened immediately, so it's not like they'd have to watch much of it anyway. He started shooting me and parked in front of me and I kept driving as if he wasn't there because I was in a superheavy tank. Him being in my way was only slowing me down, and it's overwhelmingly retarded if that counts as "retaliatory" especially since I clearly tried to drive around him multiple times only for him to reposition himself right in front of me. I did say "Okay, retard" in chat because he was throwing a bitch fit over nothing.
>>
>>1397165
>I clearly tried to drive around him multiple times only for him to reposition himself right in front of me
normally i would say that's enough evidence and not retaliatory if you didn't push him into enemy fire, the problem is the retard message
you got hit with an automated chat ban via reports (was the troll in a platoon?) and if you sent that in for manual review it may get extended, at this point not worth it since you can't grief him back from accessing consumable sales
i've called people idiots, braindead, stupid and fuckers myself and haven't caught one in 9+ years, but one of my in-game friends that got chat banned before seems to have stricter tolerance applied to him and will get randomly chat banned out of the blue for using the same language as i do

Nostalgic, but absolutely ass experience as an glorified tier 5 tank uptiering against modern tier 7 and 8s
Needs the 'survival improvement suite' equipment to improve the low base HP and stop having modules knocked out all the time
With hardening euipment, the 100% crew update and the hp buff from 2019, the days of perma-tracking are waaay gone and the TTK is too long for a single shot peashooter. Even when I did get the chance to unload on someone, I got beamed by laser-accurate SPGs for sitting still
Was running vents, experimental hardening and gun rammer, but I feel like gun rammer is a mistake since I can barely unload 2 or 3 shots in a row without receiving massive damage back now. Probably gonna swap out gun rammer for more accuracy via IA, or lean more into vision game with optics or LNE instead

I haven't played this shit game in over a year, I witnessed the anniversary come and go and didn't even bother logging in for the free tank. Just not worth my time. Wargaming are niggers, and I don't like their evil tricks. If I wanna play, I'll log in, but fuck this FOMO shit bait. I was busy with other games at the time and jumping through a hoop is still a hoop that I don't care for and the reward was another faggot ass low tier tank I'd never even play so I didn't care.

My only question is how is the current state of the game?
I've finished playthroughs of some games I was busy with so will have more free time to consider playing tanks in the next few months unless I get into other stuff but is it even worth playing these days?

I wonder which team will win?
>>
>>1406130
Depends on why you left last year
Games are still swingy with the playerbase going more into the extremes of either sweaty tryhards or passive boomers that just happy to be there, and game content output has really stalled ever since the WG and Lesta company split happened

If you’re interested in frontlines, the 7v7 onslaught mode or clan wars (lol), then it’s a decent time to get warmed up. Otherwise just join the growing horde of seasonal WOT players that wait for november - december to roll around for the yearly itch
>>
>>1406744
I got tired of the 15:3 and pay to win tanks all over, plus I didn't like frontlines at all despite it being lucrative. I don't enjoy the mode at all. Too full of nonsense like the air strikes and stuff.
I usually play most around thanksgiving/christmas but last year I skipped it.

My biggest problem is the game doesn't respect your time at all and trying to grind through a battlepass is ridiculous when you can be cucked and earn zero due to RNG ruining your shots while some bot ammo racks a maus and gets a load of XP securing him a spot in the BP earner group.
The game simply isn't worth a few hours a week because it doesn't reward you. The only way to really get anywhere is to poopsock this game and that's my main deterrent.
>>
>>1407377
Are you even playing the same game as the rest of us? You get a flat rate of points win, lose or draw. Doesn't matter if you did 0 damage or carried the team.

I finish off 1 of the battlepasses just by playing for like a week or two in a month and doing the dailies each time I decide to log on. That's just from playing a single tank.
>>
>>1407570
>Are you even playing the same game as the rest of us?
Last I played (PC WoT, I don't do console, for clarification) you had to be in the top 3 by XP earned or the top 10 or you earned zero. Doesn't matter if you got a bunch of shots in or finished people off, if you didn't earn top 10 base XP you got fuck all for your time.

Are you saying that's changed? Everyone gets a little credit now? How do you deal with bullshit daily missions like kill 4 enemies in a battle or being top damage? None of these things are skill based and depend entirely on situations made available to you, which in my case I'll kill 5 people in a game for like 3 battles in a row before I get the "bonus" mission where it requires 4 kills in one battle and then I can't get the damn final kill. Shit is ridiculous, and dropping down to bot tier and playing with LATAM NPCs just to cheat through it for BP points makes me cringe.
>>
>>1407592
I thought it was always like that but I could be wrong. I must have misread the page too when I went to look it up.

>The number of Points you receive after each battle will depend on your rank in the team results by XP earned
Seems to indicate you could be correct. But I rarely do so badly I get no points despite having some stinkers occasionally. I will go see what's up and lose a match real quick, I believe I'm updated. I had always assumed you at least gained a few points, but it wouldn't make much sense to hand out free bp points.
>>
>>1407599
Quite literally being in the top 10 (out of 15) means being in the top 2/3. That means 1/3 people will get zero per game, if it indeed works the way it used to.

A game where 1/3 of players get absolutely zero progress despite their best efforts is just toxic game design. This means anyone in a stock tank, grinding, or simply in a defensive tank in a 15:3 stomp won't really get the chance to participate in a way that allows them to earn points. It's easy to just call the 11th on XP some kind of shitter bot or whatever but more often than not that's actually not the case. Those people in 11th could survive and have 2 kills but the kills could be finishing off low HP tanks for example and considering how much of this game relies on RNG (pen, damage, modules, and accuracy) there's plenty of situations where competent players will be in the bottom 1/3 despite playing the game correctly.
People should be rewarded for good performances but earning literally zero progress is just dumb any way you put it IMO.
>>
>>1407592
When I used to care about filling out battlepasses, I only cared about the first three daily missions and ignored the bonus missions, not worth the hoops of going through them
I already had my fair share of anger from completing campaign missions
>>
>>1407616
Didn't realize it was so horrendously low, that is quite obnoxious. I guess they gotta find a way to avoid having bots farm battlepass completes.
>>
>>1407693
Yeah, if the top 10 exp requirement wasn’t there we would return to the old times where bots was on both teams
You guys shouldn’t be grinding out all three BP paths in the first place, going that far is no lifer territory
Smacking out dailies is the sane way to go, though there were some bonus dailies I didn’t bother with like the 4 kills and win battles since completing those takes like 40 minutes out of my day and I can’t be assed for that

NA is ded, wherever you get lowest lag

Really, you can't go wrong with most bond tier 8 heavies there for credit farming except for KV-5, IS-6B, CHRYSLER GF and KV-4 KRESL
The first three have shitty standard penetration that makes shooting premium shells a soft requirement, and the KV-4 KRESL despite having good standard shells, they are too expensive in cost for the damage it does

That and the alpha bump on the Pershing are the only real remarkable things. I guess the M48 getting kinda sorta turbo baked in is neat, M46 getting a somewhat decent aim circle buff was nice too.

The new czech lights are interesting. They're like anti-lights akin to the T49 running derp gun where anything paper gets shredded by fat 800~ damage unloads.
I've seen some straight up kill EVEN 90s and wheelies from like 90% hp to 0% hp with HE clips, this might be a new pub favorite tank with how YOLO heavy it can go like EBR but simpler in mechanics and kind of near guaranteed pen for chip damage.

That would suck but it’s obvious when someone is has a map awareness hack like that plus I imagine it’s pretty shit since it probably just gives you a minimap with locations and doesn’t draw the tanks themselves. On top of all that it’s only useful on a handful of maps in a handful of situations. If I was getting blind fired like that or saw someone getting blind fired I’d fall back and find a safer angle that would force him to fight in view range. None of this is defending WoT or Wargaming, it’s just one of the few games where hacks aren’t that helpful.
>>
>>1422079
Forgot to mention also that only real cheat that gives him an advantage is the fact it’s 14 versus 15 since my team has a retarded bot on it.

It draws a box of unspotted enemies and is color coded for lights + meds as green, and heavies + TDs as red so you just blind fire the green boxes of squishy tank classes, no detailed rendering really needed since lights + meds are not armored enough most of the time.
The minimap renders tank direction and deployment so it's really easy to peek people when the map tells you they aren't looking at your angle. It's insane for early game to know where to push weakly defended flanks and late game when it's broken for cleaning up when you know where the enemies are and what they are doing.
>If I was getting blind fired like that or saw someone getting blind fired I’d fall back and find a safer angle that would force him to fight in view range
He's not gonna bother digging you out if you're that deep in cover, he's just gonna reposition to keep shooting more unaware people out of the view range distance or push a weak flank himself while he knows you will be sitting there behind hard cover for 2+ mins.
>>
>>1422110
It's not that much of an advantage. Sure you see where everyone goes but for instance on mountain pass and in the instance of that video where the "hacker" was a nomad outside of a couple of early game shots there isn't much of an advantage. The game is won and lost in the J line where a nomad on either side would never have a shot map awareness or not. Knowing how many tanks went east is useless if your team lost in the west. I get the advantage but in pub matches it's pretty useless in most maps and matches.

It's fucking good now. The gun is god like and it has enough ammo to carry. The problem is the reload time but it's fair or else tank would become OP.

Have you seen the gameplay of K-91? The reload is nutty but after 2 shots people usually hide unless you get permanent tracking on them

They are. But very weak under most circumstances. It's a light armored tank killer, not much of a LT. They counter ebr too.

I think after 30k games I have finally figured out how to play this game.
You are not playing a position, you are playing the map and its 1 vs 29 and use gold unless you don't need it.
You need the right mentality to move past 50%. Mastering camo, learning where to shoot, just wont get you far.
>>
>>1426558
It is still strong but you can get a literal upgrade with the T-832. Or play the Super Perishing which is very similar but medium and gets better matchmaking.
Its still a great credit printer.
>>
>>1421239
Fuck a buff. Just make it premium.
>>
>>1427995
Yea but most will downplay it to luck and MM. If you know what you're doing then getting 50+% is nothing.
>>
>>1428050
I thought the same thing but this is the first time I have ever managed to get myself into that mental state.
In that game I had plenty of opportunities to do my usual things and die without any reward. At the start I could have gone to the heavy line, which had no help. I could have shot normal rounds at the start to save money. Midgame I could have kept pushing the south and died to TDs. I didn't do any of my usual things nieve shitter plays and that made the difference.

My last few games have been great. I had one game with the Super that I was lost and confused in but still managed a 3rd class badge for spotting. Those three tenants should be added to the OP.

czech lights is a line where the tier 7 and 8 are the best tanks
kind of hard to play effectively as an anti-light killer, since you need to know general LT gameplay and where people often go on maps

Anything but artillery and turretless TDs. If I had a favorite it would be heaviems. 122TM, SuperPershing, E5. Tanks that fall in that sweet spot of mobility and firepower.

In NA, tiers 5 to 7 are also gold slinging spamfest from clubber tanks like M6 and chito-sp too, there’s no escaping it. At least in tiers 7-9 the arty get exponentially less annoying, despite their massive buffs from their new crew skills

It's too slow to be playable. Unless it has high pen and good armor.

>It's too slow to be playable.
A lot of tanks in this game have made up stats, not an argument

It's the new German light going to be good or another failure? WG needs to complete revamp the entire light class. There are about 3 light tanks in the game that are playable.
>>
>>1434741
It's trash, it's will be hard to beat the elc in term of scouting. They will have to be a strong LT/Med hybrid with 300+ alpha and auto loader to be competitive. Plus it doesn't have any armor and will be clipped by Czech LT.
>>
>>1434741
nearly same profile as lt-432, short but longer on the tank side means that 'lkpz' will have to play bushes defensively instead of being able to push up like ELC EVEN 90 and LHMTVs can with their tiny size
I don't see a reason to play this if you already have a KPZ 07 RH

How do I get good with it? I know it has high damage potential because it has a good autoreloader gun, but it's hard to play due to having virtually no armor and mediocre camo.

you need to know maps well to play glass cannon tanks, shoot gold for faster shell velocity and
watch Iyouxin channel, his thought process is well explained during the video. Equipment wise use turbo on mobility spot, bond vstab and bond vend.

T-832 is kinda busted. This tank bounces way more shots than it should. Not just the turret either. It's the only tier 8 that I play that seems to keep tier 9s and 10s nervous enough they stay behind their rocks.

waffle mode has skill based mm based off the waffle player, averaged across harrier players
if you are like 7000+ personal rating it's really hard to win as waffle because the harrier team will always have 3-4 competent players and they're often platooned

text from the previous waffle event:
>A Fair Experience: In this event, players will meet with equal peers in terms of skill to offer equal chances for everyone to complete the Progression and to protect new players from bad experiences.

How do we fix tier 8? Is it even fixable?
I find that unless you play exceptionally strong or borderline OP tanks like Borat or BZ you're pretty much food. And if the enemy team has more strong premium tanks you're almost always lose.
>>
>>1446294
remove the skill based matchmaking, there's no place for it in wot
in these battles all the foudres keep running away, stacking up their damage boosts and clipped the fuck out of every spawn and EOS 1

>>1446300
not really, too many premiums are like tier 8.5 and the only tech trees that stand up decently well to them are the T32, Type 57, german heavies, LHMTV, most TDs except for the ferdiand/su-101/AT15/WZ-111-1g ft and for the mediums the 416, pantera, t69 and udes 14 alt 5
>>
>>1446300
I disagree. Other than the BZ being better than it's tier 10 equivalent and some tanks just being trash, tier 8 is comphy. I slaughtered a Skota and 703 in my Super Pershing just yesterday. The best part was the 703 tried to save the Skota.

Not sure about the rest of them but the Super Pershing is one of the best tanks in the game since the new physics engine buffed its mobility or maybe when WG buffed its pen.

not really? for NA I often get into all tier 8 matches frequently enough that I don't feel like taking out my type 59 or super pershing
