world of tanks
The biggest problem this game has is the people that play it.
Is the drops calendar on the wot site wrong? It says there are no more drops for this week (I already claimed 5 tokens for this week) but twitch shows progress??
>>2981323>farming drops manually in 2026ngmi
>>2981323as usual in wg's fashion they either forgot to update the calendar to include additional drop-enabled streams or they just didn't give a fuck to announce it anywhere beforehandyeah it seems that it's an entirely different set of dropsactually that anon that missed three sets from past weeks from the last thread if he somehow manages to get another 5 extra he can still get the IS-3A if he also watches all the remaining streams
>>2981575>>2981323they read the thread and added another drop just for himt. my dad works at WG
How do I into Ares?
I’m not sure leaving my twitch drops miner on is even worth the overnight cost in power for the value of an IS-3A to be honest
>>2981637Shoot the enemy until dead Aggressive positions suit the line well, the T9 is the worst, keep at least 50 HE shells to keep heavies uncomfortable by shooting the top armor Don't overheat, tap shots keep enemies permatracked T3 experimental turbo, vents, cvs
My toxic trait is I listen to teammates and take advice from them, need to stop that going forward.
>>2982111That's like asking youtube comments for life advice. Never ever listen to teammates, they're guaranteed to be retarded.
>>2982056>the T9 is the worstNTA but should I go all the way to T11? Is there any keeper in the line?
Finished grinding the Buryan and it didn't really click with me - gun handling is ass, armour is good until someone presses two then it doesn't really do anything, sluggish speed. Had a few good brawls such as in the heavy line of Pearl River but otherwise it's a pretty inflexible vehicle. Would rate the current tier 9 loot box vehicles as such after grinding all mods :Ambassador > WZ-120g > Terrifiant > Jasan > Buryan
What kind of people type>Game lost>Team full of bots>18% win, ggimmediately at the start of the battle?why would you even play the game with this attitude, you open the profile of someone who types that shit and it's a 47% 30k battles gaylord
>>2982056Why CVS?
>>2983389>gun handling is assBad RNG or trying to snipe with it, I presumeIt has the best gun handling of any 128/130mm HT - better than the E-75/Tiger Maus (even if only marginally better than the Tiger Maus) with the only downside being the lack of overall accuracyIt's also the fastest of it's cohort with good P/W, I'm not sure how you're finding it sluggish unless you're someone who only plays mediums - it's only a smidge slower than the Ambassador with the same top speed and it's definitely faster than the Terrifiant. Armor's a valid complaint but that's also like 80% of tanks in the game outside of the ones with retardedly angled armor that goes to 400mm/autobounce angles in a hull down
>>2983296The T11 is still a beast, it's a keeper for me >>2984002There are too many positions where faster tanks will shoot you from <100 meters and remain unspotted if you don't There is no downside to get cvs on any medium tank
I can only play braindead heavy tanks and highly armoured mediums but I do play them proficiently. I can’t help but wonder when I will magically get good
>>2983437>you open the profile of someone who types that shit and it's a 47% 30k battles gaylordthese are the hardstuck silver mentality high on delusion ego typesit's always someone else's fault, it's never their mediocrityextremely common in any kind of competitive games
>>2984732Yeah this. If you have ever been improvement-minded about anything in your life + been in contact with the community for that thing, the first thing you'll notice is that most people aren't interested in genuine improvement. You'd need to actually accept that you're not perfect and have room to improve, first.Not coincidentally, the loudest fuckwits in WoT are the worst players. Happens in onslaught a lot too.
what about when I have a good winrate and get really fucking mad that my teammates aren't pulling their weight like I'm making some mistakes, and sometimes I end up in a match where I could've carried if I played perfectly and did another 2-3k damage but it's like if everyone on my team could just do a tiny bit more I wouldn't have to, like if that TD player could click the enemy two times before he died it wouldn't come down to the wire and I could chill
So many retards with less than 500 battles in tier 9 premiums.
>>2984815Lootboxes please understand
I don't think it's bad but I would rather play all the others over this. Typical soviet gun depression doesn't help, gun dispersion at 100m being .40 is the crux. Sometimes you will come across a Type 5 or similar that you don't particularly want to get close to and try and it's best to take potshots, that's when the gun handling lets you down. Standard round pen isn't great. Probably the best thing about it was pretty high alpha and DPM, so it definitely has some merits, perhaps just not my playstyle.
>>2984839meant for >>2984094
>>2984839>typicalIt's 7 degrees, it's not a -10 ridge working king like some tanks but 7 degrees is good for a Soviet tank when plenty of them have 5 degrees>standard round pen isn't greatThis is again your bias from playing it and not hitting weakspots with 0.40 accuracy but it's not actually true. It has better pen than the Terrifiant and Tiger-Maus flat out, and it has better pen than the Ambassador because it fires AP over APCR as standard. You can scroll up and look at the comparison I posted again, Buryan has REALLY good standard rounds for a T9 heavy with 255 AP that has good shell velocity and only falls off 10mm at 500mThere are tanks with better standard round pen, it's not the king of T9, but it's very good and the only tank with comparable alpha that shits on it is the WZ-114 (266 AP) If 255 AP isn't enough, which understandable sometimes it isn't, you have 315 HEAT. That's 5mm better than the Ambassador and again a very competitive round. The best T9 HTs have 340 but 315 is nothing to scoff at.It's fair if it's not your playstyle since ultimately you do have the valid point of the 0.40 consistently dictating how you're playing the tank, but I find it unfair to say the gun depression or the pen are bad. The gun depression is middling/mediocre, and the pen is great. I will continue to defend it because I consistently put up great games in it, it's not overpowered but I would definitely rank it as one of the better T9 premiums and so would tomato.gg (it has a +1.46% WR diff which is the fourth best of all T9 HTs; the overall winrate of 53.24% is also the fourth best. Third in both categories if we exclude the ST tank with 250~ battles) ...although, it probably says something really bad about the state of the game that you have to scroll down pretty far to find a tech tree tank when you sort by WR
>>2984800Caring too much when you’re good is a symptom of a different thing. But also tanks is like staring into the abyss. No jury that understood would convict you
>>2984872> although, it probably says something really bad about the state of the game that you have to scroll down pretty far to find a tech tree tank when you sort by WRIt’s not the worst thing in the world because the playerbase is quite mature and there are circumstances behind why tech tree tanks aren’t thereBut it’s not great, either.
>>2984896I get that people, especially the better players, are grinding credits and bonds in their T9 premiums but it's still a little grim to look at the state of a lot of T9 tech tree tanks and I think it's undeniable that the best premium tanks at T9 simply offer more than the tech tree ones do. It's not like you can't win in tech tree tanks, the Type 4 Heavy is doing alright, but if you really want to win you're playing the Concept 1B, the SPHT or the Buryan
>>2984918The Concept is my investment tank for if a friend wants to play tier 9 someday and I actually want to win. Fucking thing is a tier 9 e5 with no cupola
my first victory today only costed me 7 battles it's one of those days where I'm not allowed to deal damage
I have a feeling that the matchmaking is actively malicious to make the player more engaged (mad)That's why I stopped playing 10 years agoSo, I guess it's not worth coming back?
>>2985404It's still like that
Game seems near death, pretty low player counts whenever I'm queueing at the moment.
should have bought more lootboxes full of vehicles turning the matchmaking into a chore
How are tanks like Leopard and E100 or whatever meta heavy on the same fucking tier?Here's the list of things that a leopard can do:>Shoot from a distance like a rat>Suck dick because it explodes in one picosecond after getting spottedHere's the list of things that an E100 can do:>Shoot from a distance like a rat>Trade hp and survive>Tank shots>Bonk enemies>Push or defend flanks>Actually impact the outcome of the battle on key positions and playing the damn gamethe maps are literally just three corridors where retards stare at each other, why would you ever play anything other than hulldown monsters with 30 degrees of gun depression and 500mm turrets and maybe if you feel so inclined add in a special ability that rapes the mother of your opponent when you press Xit's so baffling to me that heavies are clearly the most op overbuffed fucking class in the game and there's a reason why best premiums are either heavy tanks or play like heavies, and yet the shitbarn, grille, leopard or whatever other non-tank are the most popular tanks in pubs, not to mention how nowadays you have like 1-3 heavy tanks in a battle in the best case scenariowhat else needs to happen to force people to actually play the game?
>>2985622love the 48% wr larp anon you really had me convinced there for a bit
got it before the nerf
>mission: win 5 battlesWell, fuck you too.
>>2986026Nice. I think I've decided to just finish with the tier 8 and not bother with the rest of the line until they do their "adjustments" so I'm not caught with my pants down.
>>2985518You underestimate how bad it'd have to be for the game to actually die. It's got another 5 years in it at least.
>>2986026How much is tier 11 repair cost?
