Chillyrabbit posted:Using dynamic crosshairs stabilizes your gunsight so if you hit a bump it doesn't rock up and down. Otherwise I find using a lower senstivity makes you more accurate to drag more mouse to move the crosshair for finetuning. You can also set sensitivity separately for arcade and sniper mode. I turned mine way down for sniper and keep it pretty high for arcade.

NTRabbit posted:Presented without comment, a photographic series; Had something similar happen yesterday on Erlenberg assault where we were defending. Almost all of our team just followed the river and sat in the middle of the map for some reason, I was the only one to go to the west flank and two TDs sat in the A0 forest. I have no loving idea how but we still won it, between me whittling down 6-7 tanks to low hp after they took it in turns to peek out at me instead of just rushing me and killing me in a few seconds, they then went out one at a time to get destroyed by the TDs in A0. These missions create the weirdest games.

Aramoro posted:Oh, mine only has the light tree open, the other 3 are all locked, I must have not done something somewhere. They shouldn't be. The sets of missions to unlock the later tanks will show as locked, but the first mission from each tank class should be available under the missions to unlock the tier 5 TD. There's nothing you need to do or not do for this.

This was the clutchest defender medal. I had to throw myself between the enemy t29 and amx m4 at the end because otherwise they would cap out, the a-44 on the cap hits me and leaves me at 2hp and I just about get a shot in before he reloads.

Winter showdown details are up on the EU page. Event's on for two weeks starting this monday. Depending on how bad the mode is it could be an alright way to train up a new US heavy/russian light/french td crew.

Dunno-Lars posted:Where do you shoot this thing from various angles? What are the weakspot and how much pen do you need for them?  If you can get any kind of height advantage, the upper plate is really soft if you're shooting down onto it.  From head on, the weld seams are pennable, the gun bubbles are weak spots too if you hit them flush.  The recess behind the gun pivot is tougher than the rest of it from the side too. kemikalkadet fucked around with this message at 11:14 on Feb 2, 2015 |

Generation Internet posted:I'm honestly kind of surprised that they're copying everything down to the unit icons for the various classes, that's pretty ballsy. I am curious if Obsidian can pull off a tank game, since exactly nobody knows them for their superior game-play experiences. Maybe the crew members will have really compelling backstories. Yeah the alpha footage killed the hype a bit for me. Right now it looks like a faster paced reskinned WoT, and I like the slower pace in WoT. Even the arty aiming circle is identical to WoT. I'm hoping that it's just programmer art and it'll all be replaced before release. e: went back to look at the jingles video and found goons

Atal Vataman posted:accuracy nerf was completely destructive to the flow of the game. instead of doing fast peeks and firing or shooting on the move, you now have to stop and aim if you are to have any chance of hitting your shots. unaimed shots seems to hit a completely random point within your aimcircle, no bias towards the middle at all. its terrible  Really sucks for the church III because it reloads faster that it aims so you can't just spam fire any more, going to unmount GLD on it since it's pretty worthless. I've had a couple of game losing moments from it so far: tried to reset a cap in my T29 and the closest I could get was so the aim circle just about covered the capping tank except for a few pixels either side, of course three shots in a row went to the extremes of the circle and they capped. Missed a shot from about 15 metres in the open because I wasn't fully aimed in and a few pixels of aim circle weren't covering the tank. I kind of understand their reasoning for it and when that dispersion diagram showed up it looked reasonable but it's really unfun in practice.

Mesadoram posted:Playing arty is literally one of the most infuriating things in this game. It is boring, its random, you will be constantly shooting at (and missing) psychics, you get poo poo XP, get called a piece of poo poo for hitting, get called a useless piece of poo poo for missing your shots, one scout gets into your base you will be riding the Bone Train to Fuckedville, your team will be assholes and not spot any loving thing until your look somewhere else and did I mention your shots missing all the loving time? I've been doing arty missions today and I've had so many games where none of my shots go remotely close to the centre of the aiming circle. Then I get to the 'damage two tanks in one shot' mission and all my shots start penning when I'm aiming at a group so there's no splash damage. Just did this shot though which is probably my best luck all day: http://a.pomf.se/opvhtg.webm

If you get the installer version it has basically every mod you'd want in it and you can pick and choose to make something that works for you.

He'll have a workable pack up as soon as a patch drops and he'll constantly update it until everything works with the newest patch. I guess it doesn't matter so much if you're in US since they seem to get patches a bit later than EU.

Serval posted:I don't usually post anything in this thread because I'm not a great player and I don't have anything to brag about but today...  Old game, but sand river assault with no arty can be a fun 10 minutes of plinking shells off tanks. Also just had this game. M6 still my favourite tier 6 heavy, it can hold its own in t8 games as long as people leave you alone.

Yeah it's a secondary, but you want to get the secondary in the last mission of each class since they give you an extra tank token thing. If you get them all you can skip an entire class of tanks missions.

Hellsau posted:Good joke WGA copy editor. Also next time low tier prems are on sale, everyone should buy the T14 and probably Pak40. The Pak40 is on a dead research line, but it really does something absolutely unique. The T14 is just a good tier five with preferential matchmaking. I bought the Pak40 today and got a top gun in my first game, it's a pretty funny tank to play. Luckily I remembered we got given a Foch crew from that 8-bit winter event. I've never played French tanks before and didn't really want to grind up a new 75% crew.

Steelion posted:I played my IS-8 the same way as my IS-3.Be super aggressive, always shoot things in the face, never expect your armor to do poo poo for you. I had a blast in the thing. Yeah I love mine now I have all the modules for it, it was miserable before I got the top engine. I play mine really aggressively and it's working out pretty well, second best stats for me after my M6. I generally chill with the main bulk of heavies then use its speed for aggressive flanking as soon as the opportunity arises.
