Japanese tree development is proceeding relatively well, despite constant clashes over details.

Grats, I'd suggest you vote for the SU-152 on the interactive special to get a 30% discount at some point in the future.
As for the KV-1 make sure to get the 57 mm first, it makes the stock grind more bearable.

Did some calculating with my finances, and while the IS-6 and the Tetrach look to be a great deal, unfortunately I can't afford it this month. Goddamnit. Instead, it looks like I'll just be grinding my way to the KV-1, Crusader, and AT-2, with the Cromwell and KV-1S my long-term projects.

Honestly though, I can't really off the top of my mind think of any Japanese tanks that were good. *shrug*

Kamijou_Touma · 2013-08-01, 04:46

since kimi left Q we're short one T62A, so plat will have to wait until someone else gets one. or unless someone here already has one and plays on the east side NA, then we can do a plat on Sundays.

My lil bro finally is back from study abroad. Although he's still unpacking his stuff, i got a hayate no gotoku bag and miku hatsune plushie.

I never left the 57mm, I thought the 85mm was too random (though it has somewhat more utility if facing Tier 7) and the 122mm was too slow.

And while I could be better, it seems to be working out okay.

Well my 13 win streak from last nigh was broken in a horrible defeat.
Murovanka encounter. A T29 camped the whole damn battle and was trying to snipe two IS-6 that I (in my Panther) along a Type, VK2801, T25/2 and IS were engaging. We were killed by the IS-6s (we left both in critical HP one in two digits and the other in 100 hp) and we actually had to threat the moronic T29 to get out to engage them... Unfortunately he had little to no brains since he was firing AP at the IS-6s from long distance (>300m). We were telling him to use HE to finish them but the bastard actually said that HE doesn't work.

The amount of stupidity in the pubs is very disturbing.

RWBladewing · 2013-08-01, 07:39

After a month of effort I finally managed to reach 51% win rate yesterday. I almost want to never play again just so it can never go back down.

You don't even have 2000 games in yet though, still a lot of space to improve. I was around 3k battles and my percentage was barely into 48% before I started to turn things around. ^^;

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I have a TON of space to improve. I don't even consider myself below average. Just saying that I know as soon as my next play session starts that rate will drop right back down. Might as well enjoy finally being positive while I can even if it is almost entirely a result of me being lucky/carried.

Kamijou_Touma · 2013-08-01, 11:10

Rw simple solution is to plat wih ppl that will carry u like teru does.

As for kv 1 i use the 122 all the time on it..... y, cuz at2s thats y... 122 makes it easier to kill damn 200mm armor from the front. i only carry 10 gold round it tho, cuz carrying anymore is a waste since u will only shoot it all or less to none.

Achiuakuna · 2013-08-01, 11:22

In my experience regular HE is better against British tanks. For something like AT 2, you can do 150+ damage without aiming. Hitting anywhere will do. With gold you'd actually have to hit the cupola.

Excuse me, I solopubbed until I hit the threshold of 53%. Then I decided that throwing myself at the mercy of MM and crappy teams wasn't worth the effort anymore.

Well, I wouldn't ever intentionally do this to begin with but regardless I don't really have any friends or connections in game so it wouldn't really be possible anyway. I suppose randomly whispering top players and demanding they carry me would be pretty funny but I would sooner destroy my PC than become THAT guy. Bad enough I've been seeing people asking for gold in chat before matches start.

LeoXiao · 2013-08-01, 12:50

I find that platooning with the notion that your comrades will carry you is the best way to ensure that your platoon will suck. Instead, you have to have the opposite mentality - you are there to carry your platoon.

Tak · 2013-08-01, 12:53

Eh, I tend to like the concept of each complimenting one another in a platoon. Thats why I often prefer our tanks to travel together, so we can flank and rapid fire... etc.

Another reason why I love voice chat.

Gravitas Free Zone · 2013-08-01, 16:28

Asian Dad would tell me that my second-most damage of everyone meant that I needed to carry harder.

Endless Soul · 2013-08-01, 17:26

Is it true the the new garage has warships in the background? Or is that only on the Russian/EU servers?
