Damn, I was going to grind Warframe this weekend, lol.

So KV-1 and Matila get extra credit bonuses as well... looks like I know what I'll be playing tonight! KV-1 ho! I want to get them to their second skills this week.

Ascaloth · 2013-10-10, 19:59

Wow, this weekend is unbelievably lame.

Although, I wonder. Should I buy back the M3 Lee, if only so I can demonstrate how to play it to others?

Considering buying back the Matilda too.

M3 Lee: Even if you do godlike things in it, it won't make anyone actually want to keep the thing.

Free 10000 gold: Just when is launch expected to be, anyway?

StuG life: I got a Top Gun and Sniper in a Prokhorovka game, with 24 hits in 27 shots. Had to yell at team to do more damage, since most of them hadn't been able to get one kill after I already had four... and I threatened them that I was running out of ammunition. (I have 4 75mm HE rounds in there, which I can't recall the last time I've actually had to use.)

...might actually work towards Warplanes then, if only for the gold. I doubt I'll be able to get the 10000 gold, but 2500 gold is nothing to sneeze at either.

I don't load any HE on the StuG. Way too little ammo storage on that TD to afford filling up valuable space with situational rounds. I've run out of ammo in the StuG so many times before. If you must, I suggest you just keep 1 HE round.

Gravitas Free Zone · 2013-10-10, 22:27

Prokhorovka seems to bring out the profligate ammo usage in the StuG, but I don't think I've ever actually run out of ammunition in it. Still, you're right that the HE is relatively pointless, considering the L/70's capabilities at those tiers on most targets.

Running out of ammo in the Easy Eight: Actually happened... twice.

The other thing that would have been nice: I decided to say screw it to waiting for crew training to go on sale, so my new vehicles got 75% base crews (and in a few cases a 100% commander). But the concurrent and longer-running LACK of an EQUIPMENT SALE meant that I had to spend several million on modules, instead of only a few million.

I think...1st week of novermber... maybe. If people could make 200 battles in 4 days, then 2 weeks is more than enough to make 350.

Bad news: got killed by Louise and Teru -_-
Good News:

Silver-Throne · 2013-10-11, 02:43

Got a stupid team today, I managed to kill 4 tanks early getting a 'first blood!'(OH YEAH!). I feel a bit disappointed at my team because they were damn rushers and I wonder why those bad players migrated here in Asia server? I already saw many kinds of that!

The server migration is available in Asia, more like you gotta move to Asia server keeping all your credits, golds, stats, etc.[except that you leave your current clan] Those transfers have more bad players than good players based on my calculations. I wonder what would happen if the Asia server gets overpopulated due to transfers?

Blaat · 2013-10-11, 03:36

According to wikipedia the launch is on November 12 so you have 31 days to do 350 battles. Basically 11.3 battles per day or 34 battles every 3 days.

Nothing on the EU server but I will definitely participate if we get the same event.

Actually I didn't think I spotted you that game, and it was GPV in his KV-1S that I destroyed. Potato'd at the end though when I hit north of that map, and ran into 3 units before I could turn my Comet and run.

RWBladewing · 2013-10-11, 06:44

You know what's actually a really terrible feeling? Getting 5 kills in a blowout victory for your side yet still knowing you actually did basically nothing to contribute because the people you killed were SO stupid or harmless that the rest of your team would have easily just steamrolled them over the course of the battle even if you weren't there. Like, killing the PZIV who thought it was smart to charge a KV-1 from the front, or the Hetzer who was driving across a wide open field, or the D.W.2 who was a D.W.2, didn't really have an effect on the outcome. This seems to be happening to me a lot lately.

A win is a win. I'll take potato-shooting to a top gun loss anyday. :P

they've "put it on hold" which probably means they will either cancel it or slash a zero off the end of the gold rewards

I guess they realized what giving away that much free premium would do to their cash flow

I AM UNICORN.

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

I have a decent selection of TDs now...

M8A1, T40, T49, Wolverine, Hellcat, Jackson
Marder II, Hetzer, StuG, Dicker Max, JagdPanther, E-25, JagdTiger 8.8cm
SU-85B, SU-85, SU-100Y, SU-122-44
AT 2
S35CA

I haven't really formed an opinion of the SU-100Y, it's too new. The SU-85 is mediocre, though I don't have the final gun yet.

Welcome to the bathtub club. Enjoy the tier 5 gun equivalent of the BL-10.

Gravitas Free Zone · 2013-10-11, 12:47

At my current rate of usage, my number of TD games played will pass my number of light tank games played within the next week. Probably because one vehicle class hasn't really been hit too badly by nerfs while the other has gotten its ass handed to it by accuracy buffs, camo nerfs, and SPG reduction.

Also, I'm downloading the 8.9 Common Test right now, though its availability hasn't been announced on the NA site yet.

Notes...

Quote:

•Due to the addition of the new German TD line, Panzerjaeger I and Marder II TDs were rebalanced

Eh, the Marder is already kinda blah from its previous gloriousness.

Quote:

•Panther/M10 camouflage and inscriptions will be changed from German to American nation. If player has active inscriptions and/or camouflage, their cost will be reimbursed.

But having a giant "GREIF" written on the side of my PzV Ausf. Warcrime was FUNNY...

TEST SERVER:

Play one mission, get the Chi-Nu Kai and the Type 64.

I think everyone wants to try the Chi-Nu Kai.

Shoebox Cannon: Gun is troll, traverse is nonexistent, hull is cardboard. It's like playing an arty in TD mode.

Type 64:

something something Taiwanese tank PLA colors outrage

Chi-Nu Kai is just perfect.

I'm proud of my daughter.

I dislike the sluggishness of the Chi Nu Kai.
