Really hating Caernarvon Action X atm. It’s slow, its turret is death trap (upper part is 110 mm), has low alpha and whatnot. Should have bought Centurion 5/1 instead

Aww the 5/1 is like worse at everything the Action X can do minus mobility and view range. I really like the 5/1 on frontlines but for standard battles I have the worst luck winning games with it.

So, uhhh...the Halloween event has some loving amazing permanent bonuses for the duration of the event, but with pubbies existing, you would need to play like 270 battles at around 100 points, each a length of 6 minutes, for a wonderful 27 hours. gently caress. That. Noise. If people work together, you might probably be able to stomp out 500+ points per match, so grinding through it with the 5-player-platoon mechanic in a clan or something might actually be worth it.

WG gave me a 30% off coupon on your next purchase, but there is no way to apply this coupon while purchasing anything it also cannot be used for gold or any discounted items so that rules out like 90% of their poo poo as everything is bundled with gold or they apply an "8%" discount to things. Well I guess I could use it to buy another year or premium time for $60... BadLlama fucked around with this message at 17:10 on Oct 18, 2018 |

serious gaylord posted:what is it, pls explain. You drive around a Halloween map to collect "green matter" that you have to deliver to your base. Points are cumulative, and everyone gets rewarded the total amount collected at the end of the match. If you die, you lose all green matter you carry. There are dead tanks (Medium IIs, T-28s and BDRs) around the map that will come to life and shoot you when you get too close. Killing them awards more green matter, but without coordination, it's extremely risky, so your average, non-platoon game will be a shitshow. Occasionally, anomalies spawn that you can either collect for a bonus, or that will unlock global effects on players like increased ROF, movement speed with higher amounts of green matter on your tank, healing HP, etc. Some reddit dude wrote a guide on it https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldofTanks/comments/9pj03c/guide_to_dark_front_halloween_mode_tips_tricks/ Pubbies will somehow think everyone's for themselves, so they keep collecting large amounts of green globs and then die. If you have a bunch of clanmates play in the 5-man platoons a couple of times every day, you can easily unlock each new level of bonuses, but as a public game mode...uh, it kinda sucks.

Watching 3/4s of the team go field on Ruinberg and Prok and still get slaughtered convinced me to log off for the next two days

Did they really just put EVE Online Mining in the game as a special event? Sure enough.

Eve online mining is even worse than that. If they've ripped it from anywhere, it's Warframe's index mode. But less fun.

All they have is dumb reality TV stuff like... ice road truckers???? Ancient aliens???? Swamp people?????? pawn stars???? etc etc etc. I'm only gonna play this green glob game until it requires me to play more than an hour or 2 collecting globs. It's retarded. This is a poo poo event. gently caress you, WG you are the History Channel of gaming.

Swamp people?????? pawn stars???? etc etc etc. You can knock out each new daily level with the "Dark Runner" (what a great  name) 5-man platoons pretty quickly if you grab some clan mates, and it's actually kinda fun because you're doing it coordinately and don't see the other 4 members on your "team" bumbling around and dying while you're the only one that carries them to around 100 points by yourself.In most matches, you zip around in a ball of death from zombie-tank graveyard to zombie-tank graveyard, without even hoovering up the green goo that's lying around the rest of the map. No one dies because whoever draws "aggro" at any given point just stays in cover because zombie tanks are about as dumb as your average pubbie in regular queue matches. When that reload-anomaly spawns, you can even break up into two groups, with 3 guys going after BDRs, and 2 guys going after T-28s and below. We knocked out yesterday's level in like 3 matches that were actually fun. It's pretty impressive how hard Wargaming hosed the mode up for public matches, though. With the increasing amount of points required to unlock each successive level, you already have to churn out something like 12 matches per day as it is. The last couple of days are 3-4k points to unlock, so that's like two and a half hours PER loving DAY.
