This has to be the shittiest general edition.

it's better than the one with the reddit clans and the overused image

No, it's objectively worse.

>us bogged down in clan drama again
>suddenly all clans are reddit
really stimulates the the little gray cells

Clans are a social construct for pissnormies anyway. Have a (you).

>normies
>vg clans
You do know that one of the clans literally just a lewd anime sharing racket?

>NA clan drama

When will this meme die?

>socializing with a name attached to you
(autistic screeching frog)

Is it any coincidence that this general goes to shit as soon as the europeans wake up?

>triggered clapistanis

Anime did nothing wrong

No. The amis do their best to spamm the thread t the limit late at night just so that they can make their shitty editions.

I wanna marry Sofi

Who would have expected all these european autists to shit up the general with their waifus.

I'm American tbqh

Sofi is cute

Posting tank related waifus is better than bitching about how every clan is reddit

We're getting the Aussie tanks on the Console version very soon. PC players: anything we should know about them?

...Aussie tanks? Plural?

The fuck did they have other than the penis MG port Sentinel?

He's a big dumdum. We have a chance to win the penis tank. Nothing more.

There's the AC 1, the one we have a chance to win, and the Tier VI AC 4 Experimental, available only through the premium store. I ask again: anything remarkable about them?

Who the fuck made this atrocity of an OP and edition?

go to bed already like dam

I just woke up, tard.

gotta say, their sandbox m41 bulldog does not inspire me

the removal of the autoloader basically makes that tank trash

>autist spergin bout some dumb crap callin me a tard
dam lmoa end yourself man

LT babbies on suicide watch

So, a day to remember has come.
I have farmed up the m3 lee and can unlock the M4/T1 Heavy -> which route to go?
Originally I wanted the Jumbo, now I am not sure... I have had most luck with the russian mediums

t1 heavy is comfy and better if you're new

But then you have to play the M6 which is just the T1 Heavy with a bigger gun and a more hit points.

Thats why you play patrician lights like the SPIC

>play SPIC
>more damage than most of the team

really makes me think sometimes

I mean sure its two wheel barrows stapled together with a bucket on top but it is my favourite light.

People really underestimate 10 degrees of gun depression and the ability to kickout 720 damage in 6 seconds.

its losing its autoloader too

ARE YOU SERIOUS?
Link to this?

i don't understand why light tanks needed this massive nerf

not only is it a general nerf they're also removing all their distinguishing characteristics too

not only it's a massive nerf but they're all moved up a tier too

thedailybounce.net/2017/01/26/world-of-tanks-tier-vii-light-tanks-initial-stats/

No, they're simply losing their LT matchmaking.

They'll be at the same tier they are right now, technically.

some of them are staying the same not all of them

thedailybounce.net/2017/02/28/sandbox-2-0-light-tanks-tech-trees/

It doesnt actually say it is loosing it though r-right? thats just the other guns stats surely....

>Average Damage per Minute: 1600 HP/min (-676)
Feels good.

They aren't moving up, though. That's my point. A current Tier 8 LT is the exact same MM as a Tier 9 normal tank.

:^)

It was literally the ENTIRE POINT OF THE TANK!

You are slow and weak BUT you get this great autoloader!

Now its just going to be you are slow and weak BUT you get a worse gun than the ELC because thats a statpadder favourite.

don't worry cyka ELC is getting nerf too

its losing 40mm of pen and thats it! this is fucking bullshit.

>get a shitty x2
>this was the game immediately afterwars
turns out if you can get there the mines hill is pretty good for the T28

your fault for playing a garbage tank line

>tfw threads are ded at real awoo hours

>Supporting cancer tanks by buying the 252U literally drown yourself

>T8 LT
>scout MM is same MM as T9 normal tank
>gets nerfed and moved to T9
>T7 LT
>same MM as T8
>gets nerfed and moved to T8

see the issue here?

>raised skill-ceiling
>yellow complains

> Grinding type 58
> Every game is tier 8 with defenders

Tier 6 is unplayable, at least at tier 7 you get E25 players to balance your MM

>world of 2

>shit 90% made up like the obj252 gets into the game
>no sturmtiger
reminder that wg is a bunch of faggots

>wanting THE most cancerous possible arty

>sturmtiger
>arty
what?

I made it. Why don't you like it?

How balanced is the 252U

not at all.

What do you suggest then? because it most certainly wasn't a TD.

Either HT or TD.

An assault gun is closer to a TD than an arty.
"An assault gun is a gun or howitzer mounted on a motor vehicle or armoured chassis, designed for use in the direct fire role in support of infantry when attacking other infantry or fortified positions."

"The assault gun looks and works in the same way as the similar tank destroyer, the only difference in most cases being the gun. Assault guns generally used larger calibre, lower velocity guns, with their primary ammunition being that of high-explosive shells; these were meant for taking out soft targets as outlined in its infantry support role."

key words:
>direct fire

It's a fucking mortar

>direct fire

not against other armored vehicles, the thing fired rocket propelled rounds at like 250 m/s.

technically it's a modified depth charge launcher, mortars are short range weapons, tho.
As if wg hasn't taken lots of liberty with other vehicles.

252u has finally gave me a reason to play tier 10

252us shit up matchmaking from tier 6 to 9 (69 lol hehe)

>but arty one-shot are rare

GERMAN BIAS

you clearly weren't one shotted there, m80

don't worry, the (((target audience))) has already deemed it too powerful, we're working on a nerf

artillery players are retarded because they are speaking from their perspective
obviously one shots are rare to the individual, but from an overall viewpoint, tanks getting OHKO'd is common
it happens to an individual once in a while, but 'once in a while' applied to every arty player simultaneously is not a small amount

Yeah, take away 75% of my HP and damage 3 modules doesn't count.

>2 games later

The match ended in a draw because our T28 proto type refused to move from the base despite knowing where all the enemies were. Instead our ferdinand died to the gold spamming Defender because he couldnt fight 2 guys at once.

>decide to play a*ty for missions
>3 games in a row city maps AND absolutely downie teams

sasuga, wg

>play the downie class
>complain about downies
you're stupid

Why are they making tier 10 lights instead of making maps where light tanks are actually viable?

We're burning through these threads.

I'm a little late, but friendly and threadly reminder that the Centurion Action X is the most aesthetic tank in game.

T10 lights actually look quite fun. Like a whole set of T50-2s.

TOG is the only aesthetic bong tank

I have a bit of mixed emotions here, guys. On one hand, I'm slightly upset that my comrade miguelm4a1 ignored the skoda shooding me and drove straight to berlin. On the other hand, I admire his dedication to yoloing the arty as if nothing else in the world mattered before he got farmed by a nashorn. In the end, I am proud of this taco.

is something wrong with the Skoda T50 wn8 values? I have 2K2 avg dmg in it, and it's only 1600 wn8 apparently.

>tfw still no sandbox access too try out the new LTs

arbitrary coefficients for the arbitrary rating metric

>why does an OP tank have high wn8 values?
get more kills

>2,2k avg dmg in an OP T9 autoloader med
lmao

It is concerning to me that wargaming is of the habit of randomly nerfing light tanks in the process of introducing other tanks. I can understand why some degree of a nerf is justifiable for what is essentially a reduction in matchmaking tier. However, there seems to be relatively little consistency for it. Like when they justified dramatically nerfing the VK2801 when they reduce the scout matchmaking the last time. However, at that time they moved the VK2801 up a tier. So the net effect was a light tank that was seeing the same enemy tanks before and after its massive nerf. They eventually reduced its matchmaking again after introducing more light tanks but there will be no such relief here.

You don't seem to understand what the difference is between a ceiling and a floor is.

Raising the skill-ceiling would mean that a more skilled player can do better in the tank as compared to its previous state. While raising the skill floor means that it takes a more skilled player to play a tank at an effective level as compared to its previous state.

These changes (aka nerfs) to the light tanks, broadly speaking (that means that there may be exceptions), are RAISING the skill FLOOR and LOWERING the skill CEILING.

That is, they are making them harder to play effectively AND less effective when played very very well.

It is kind of like an S-curve that has been shifted to the right and down where the vertical axis is "battle performance" and the horizontal axis is "player skill".

terrible position 2bh
what did you even expect to happen when driving to that spot?

.....forgot picture.....

No, they're both sub par
