NotWearingPants posted:What is the strat for winning with this team composition on Westfield, starting from north: The answer is nothing really. Heavy tanks have the most hit points, the biggest guns and the most armor. Coordinated teamplay can be used to overcome that, but in pub matches a massive disparity in a team of heavies to a team of very few heavies typically means you lose unless you happen to have a massive advantage in team skill. 800 pages of WoT, truly a shameful display.

Bulky Bartokomous posted:1946 damage in my M-44. Why, God, why? You say you're not getting better at arty, yet it seems you've learned the art of relocation. A huge majority of arty players will pick a spot at the beginning of battle, and then sit there without moving until they've either won or some enemy tank comes knocking. Actually relocating as the battle progresses so you can get a shot at poo poo from different angles is apparently beyond most.

Also, I do enjoy the O-I Experimental but holy gently caress can I not win in it. The second I get spotted I get rained on my arty and gold shells. Then my pubbies fail because they are monkeys flinging poo poo at each other.

Wait, that requires coordination.

Can someone identify which session stats this mod is and tell me how to reset it? I tried the OMC installer, but my log file is for some reason either gone or wiped, so none of my previously installed mods are highlighted.

So today's mission is, 'win 10 battles being among the top 5 XP earners on your team.' Am I going crazy or did we already have the same mission, but top 3 XP instead? Either way it's Churchill 3 time.

So you know those German victory missions. Apparently Wargaming hates Germans: https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldofTanks/comments/61150p/wot_na_problem_with_german_flags_for_german_wins/ If you were like me and planned to apply them to West German tanks as you bought them, too bad. Sure hope you didn't do it in your Blackdog / Mutz.

Patch note: Fixed the issue with the display of Battle Results after the end of a special battle, if there was no information about the enemy. Fixed the issue where vehicles could sometimes disappear from view in Arcade Aim in the Spectator mode.

Not entirely sure what happened, but now my client shits itself when I enter the "exterior" module from the garage, same with the tech tree. It just freezes on "loading equipment" or something.

Steelion posted:The thing with the 107 on the KV-2 is that if you're going to use the 107 on the KV-2, then why the hell aren't you driving a T-150, which is a much better platform for that gun? Use the derp. Because again, a lot of the time I get the benefit of those pubbies that see a KV-2 and instantly think derp only to get caught in surprise, which is just about as fun as derping. Don't criticize how I teach.

Here's how it worked out: Noticing the heavy disparity, I suggested the top spawn move back towards cap. The M6 and O-I complied, the TDs stayed up in those bushes because that's what TDs do on that map. They got some shots in and a couple kills as the heavies rolled over them. Meanwhile, the bulk of our force worked south with our numerical superiority and began to get demolished by the T71 who made it to the corner and sniped the hell out of them while unlit in those bushes on the corner hill. Then the two enemy e25s started sniping unseen from bushes in the middle and we were well on our way to a 15-2 loss so I yolo'd into the valley city and was able to light them and they got destroyed. So I at least had the consolation of getting those two killed because gently caress e25s. Of course the Scorpion spent most of the match calling everyone idiots for not implementing the standard strat. I guess he thought all we needed was for the M6 and O-I to play speed bumps for the 7 higher tier heavies facing them and the TDs would have killed them all.

welp i'm at 4/10 games and it's been a non-stop stream of bullshit This game started with four players saying "heil hitler" without me provoking them at all so it comes as no surprise that my teammates did not left click enemy tanks  The artillery got two oneshot kills on a T-28 and a Sav something that enabled me to carry the north on Sacred Valley otherwise alone against a large number of enemy tanks. I expressed my thanks to our sky helper for winning the match for our team outright, and then accepted their platoon invite to get them a BiA medal. Our other B2, that SMOBOFWAR dude, took an attitude with me because I didn't thank them. Look at that loving account. Look at those 3400 Matilda BP games. These are the people who we play this game with.  Come the gently caress on Wargaming, your matchmaker is broken. We crushed them anyway because our 304 shot enemy tanks and the KV-85 was stock and hid in the back so whatever. Last game a T-28 w/85mm push me into enemy fire and then drove behind me and tried to push me out in my Churchill 3. We won anyway with me in the top 5 XP. I really wish WGNA would accept tickets for physics abuse.

I played in a Tier 7 game on Airfield yesterday where we had 0 top tier heavies and the red team had a T29 platoon. We still won because their platoon/team was absolutely terrible.

Just spent another hour slamming my dick in a drawer at SPG-15. Lakeville. In my M12. First two shots....hit? Sitting at 1200 damage a minute in with a bowl full of heavies to shoot at. Holy poo poo! This is looking good. Oh cool, an enemy scout rapes me because nobody covered the middle.

While not quite in the class of Hellsau's last one: I'm in the DW2 because I'm an idiot who thought the medium tank line would go PZ III, PZ IV, Panther (etc)  At the start of Arctic I look at the team make up and decide that going and getting pinata'ed on the Heavy corner was probably not a great idea as even my gold round won't reliably pen their heavies and I have armour of the finest Bavarian cheese. Not only that we have more heavies than the opposition, so I'm not strictly needed. I head North only to see the T1 Heavy was coming too. I prepare my 'We few we lucky few' spray and turn around only to note our Excelsior, Churchill III & VK are also heading North. I turn around again and lead the charge for our largely doomed cap fast hail Mary. Now I have to accept some responsibility for our loss. We might actually have pulled it off if I hadn't tried to chase down a T67 while we were capping out. None the less doing top damage with my (70 alpha) little nail gun is just  Why all the arty hate? We have feelings too. Like massive hardons when we blind kill, one shot your top tier heavy because gently caress YOU SHITTER!
