World of Tanks

In reply to yamaha:

I agree....got some very good tips on how to effectively use my tier 7 Black Prince better.

Thanks for the tip on watching the PZ IID video. It was worth a giggle or two.

lol I thought it was funny...

well yesterday I earned the new tier8 premium wz-111 from the event that started back on the 15th of Dec... 1,050,000 dmg (150k from each country) and 1050 kills (150 kills each country)

puts me at 2 tier8 tanks and a tier7 at min researched in each country

this event put me up to my 6000th game and pushed me into the 1300 wn8 lvl with recent being a nice blue 1711 :)... what all this says is that I've played WAY to much since I started in the last 5 or 6 months lol.

ya pretty much... classes started back up so I get to slow down... but the personal missions start tomorrow... doh

so personal missions started today on PC... I earned over 1.5 million cr... nearly 900k net thanks to the rewards in these missions.

FV304 artie......best way to troll in the game, shoot, run away at 60+km/h, reload in ~11secs hit him again.....muahahahahahahaha. Awesome piece of kit.

In reply to Fobroader:

My friends that use those normally just run with the scout tanks shotgunning everything.

In reply to yamaha:

It actually quite effective in TD mode lol

In reply to Fobroader:

Yea, I smile when I come across one when I have HE rounds loaded in a derp gun though....

Depends in what you have those loaded into had a KV2 loaded for bear.....drove around him and popped him in the back of the head

I just got Bert yesterday... by the time I was done with the bishop I managed all but the last 3 or 4 SPG personal missions... including the "hit 2 with one shot"... lol... the bert has more range ans is a heck of a lot faster and easier to get around in... sadly it sees better armored tanks while using the same gun which sucks :( I still can't imagine how much fun it would have been pre nerf... but alas :(

I tend to follow the heavies though... the high arch really excels in choke points and cities... can hit things that think they are safe and usually they don't pay much attention to 100 dmg... until you land a clean shot on the engine lid and light them on fire lol...

In reply to Fobroader:

M4A6E2 105mm, Pz IV 105mm, kv1 122mm, kv2 152mm, at-2 3.7"......yea, derp guns only get HE's in my games.

Last night was the night of trolling with the pz IV and kv-2.....first 3 rounds yielded missing the target I could see at max range......only to hit and one shot something behind it. ALL THE HE SHELLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol as of late I sin with the kv2... I've been running the 107mm... I consistently do a lot more dmg with it so my dmg ratio has been climbing... I'll platoon with some kv2 friends with it... we'll all fire and enemy will charge... that 9sec reload catches them by surprise... yes it's "only" 300 dmg but add the derp my buddies have = some good times :)

derp will go back on it once I elite the tank... but I've been very amused at how well the kv2 does with that 107... even managed an ace mastery with that gun http://wotreplays.com/site/1649593#windstorm-donalson99-kv-2

So, anyone else cashing in on the "login bonus"? 50K per day + bonus stuff/tanks if you log in certain numbers of days in a row. Great time to start if you haven't tried the game yet.

BTW - my game handle has changed. My son and I were sharing an account, which I learned was a "no no". Deadmeat24 is junior now, I'm "SHOOT____HERE"

yup do it for 30 days and you get a free tier2 prem tank... 60 days (too late to start for that now) and a free tier6 prem... also 3 million free credits... don't even have to play a game, just log in.

Just counted the days on the calendar and realized I'll come up ONE DAY short on the SU-100Y. Guess I'll be the only kid on the block without one.

just bought my first tier 9 tank today and I'm super excited :) say hello to my little t-54 :)

Very Nice, for what I use all the time in tier 6, I think I have everything unlocked for tier 7(or have purchased them already)....but I HATE playing big tanks on there, Tiers 5&6 with the occasional 7 are where the fun is.

Did a "team training" with a couple other players in order to look around the Overlord map.

I haven't looked at it yet outside of the few youtubers that ran though it a few weeks ago... been a little busy this week with the big tournament... we went undefeated in the tourney today... ... sitting in 29th place right now... 34-2-1 (w/l/draw) only one team that really worries us tomorrow... if we win it's $150 worth of gold and kv-5 if we lose we'll be borderline depending on how other top teams preform still... 2 losses and we're still top 5%... crazy as at the moment we are one of two "green" wn8 teams sitting this high up...

but I'm looking forward to getting some pubbie games on that new map... might hop into a training room with my sons account tomm just to derp around :)

I haven't updated anything on this for my 360 in awhile, but they are currently working on the xbox one version that will allegedly cross play matches with people on the 360 and allow us to switch between the two at will.

I read that about the xbone/360 compatability... that should help get more players playing and that is never a bad thing for a multi player only game

Indeed, it sounds epic. I probably should update my WoT on 360 just so I can screw around with the destructible environment they added to it about 2mo ago.
