Draschel:  this has been proven time and time again. Artillery was released early, out of beta. Not in beta. Let me guess, what's your next move. being a critic against those that try hard, and telling them to get a life because they play well and you don't. Oh,  I remember that one Once you realize, that being a casual and not accepting others for not being casuals, about as factual as someone full of it, then you can start with forward progress   

Draschel:  i don't think it is bad, don't look at me but it is just silly to even think it compares to renegade

TeriyakiTanker:
I wonder about this, if you go back through the numbers of reported bans and aggregate the numbers it would not appear to be all that insignificant.

Jaguarz:  you played it for ONE game and you are comparing it to a tank with ONLY a 4s interclip and class as its connecting factor, they couldnt be more different otherwise, your suggestion is inane, one is a fast flanking highly capable sniper and late game play maker the other is a tank which is slow, has terrible pen, dispersion and velocity. I couldnt care less if you like the tank or not, if its awesome or not but your analogy is terrible.

churchill50: The tier 10 was considered the best tier 10 LT back when it was the only one to get 390 alpha.  But... that says more about how bad the other tier 10 LT's were back then than it does about the WZ-132-1 being worth anything.

Jaguarz:  Say whaaaa..... the only thing it shares with the Char is a 4s interclip, they couldnt be more dissimilar otherwise if they tried, thats like saying a Ferrari is like a Yugo because they both have 4 wheels. If you refuse to play a tank without bond equipment that says more about you than the tank and it says lots about the tank already.

Jaguarz:  People can prefer what they like, I prefer the Pz7 it doesnt mean that its not a bottom of the class tank.I dont enjoy the Prog 46 myself but I can appreciate its abilities, the Astron.....is crap but thats not to say you cant enjoy it.

Draschel: Free clan industry resource too Many times more than a draw  or loss,   lol   

Jambijon: Evening Everyone! We're aware of the "BASEAPP_Crash" error that's affecting some users. We're looking into and will update you as soon as we can.

Draschel: Its fine. But World of Tanks 2017  (to present) demands great. You are either,  great  or  ......terrible. There is no middle class.Is T44 terrible? It surely is not, but stacked up against LIS? Terrible. Overstatement, much?Is E75TS terrible? No, but stacked up against Renegade? Terrible. We are seeing a trend.Is T Rex terrible? No, but placed alongside progetto? Terrible. We get the point. The tank is fine. But *terrible* is the blurted out misnomer we, world of tanks society, further.   But what I will say, is the tank is weird. Weird as F. Whats with the bi-polar stats. I wanna know 

Draschel: My bad for the server, double post. I started the post window during battle queue, got into a battle, had the crash,  lol   posted.....and saw guys already posted the same in the 3 minutes.lol.....not my fault. 

Draschel: BASEAPP_ Crashlol? Whats going on?4 times in a row nowTeams getting free pts https://ibb.co/CnNM1TZ 

Draschel: walks like a duck, talks like a duck, quacks like a duck, waddles like a duck, floats like a duck, beaks like a duck Nope. Its a jackal  (thats you) 

Draschel:  It isn't working as intended. Because the game was designed and released at the start, without them.No, the only thing to take, is not HP. There are also map control, wins, assistance damage, tanks spotted, tanks killed, damage blockedThing is artillery generally does quite poorly and bad at all those as well. Not that you care, not measuring up to any metricWhy do you bother to even talk. You do not even play arty. Why are you spokespersoning arty, but you don't even play arty.  ????All you do is pro-arty argue. Everywhere. Its not even me. And not only that, always with others a tonne better than you.

Jaguarz:  https://wotlabs.net/...layer/Excorsion

Jaguarz:  What would you possibly know about the game mechanics or even what other people do or dont want? Given you somehow managed nearly SEVEN HUNDRED battles in the last 24 hours I assume this is some kind of distraction tactics to go "oh Im totally not a bot, look I posted on the forums!!", This account needs to be flagged and monitored, it couldnt be more blatant if it tried. Thats literally a match every minute over the course of a day factoring in matchmaker, load and the 30s countdown, insanely obvious bot.

Draschel:  You said it. One of them.Favre, has had the best.

Draschel:  Favre threw a faster, harder pass than Bradshaw.I'd say Bradshaw was smarter passer, sure. 

Draschel:  In who's hands? Yours?  In your hands, Strv K may appears good.  But compare it to AMX M4 51, Conquer, or M103.  Its bad. And those are poor man's  concept 1 and Phase 1. Kunze is a bad tank. I'd say a lesser AMX30, already a lesser Type 61 or PTA. Because people like you may make it work, all the power to you. I can make WZ120 work. Is it a good tank? Certainly not 

Draschel:  There is no ''claiming now'' that I believe this or that.  We have been debating all this time, arty is broken, and that WG response to this, is through interval nerfs. Prior to, I have said that artillery should be tank destroyers, my preference. Asked for the first time, and answered for the first time, if it is first implied artillery cannot be removed, and of course it will not be - should artillery be buffed. Yes. Because it is a poor damage dealer. I want some semblance of reputable damage. That is me, answering. Will it be buffed? Very unlikely, this is WG answering. Will it receive more nerfs to come? Very likely, this is WG answering. Because it is an easy damage dealer. Easy damage dealer =/= high damage.

Jaguarz:  You can get multiple instances running on one PC, I cant recall how as I have zero need to run more than one account Speculation is there are 3 miscreants running 10 accounts each and occasionally a pubbie slips through their net and gets in their game so they kill him asap. As to why? - Stat padding- RMT mission selling

Jaguarz:  looks like most 3 marked, seems to me to either be padding damage/wn8 at a extreme level or selling campaign missions.

Jaguarz: The length padders will go to is extreme.... 

Jaguarz: Stop playing on the SA server where the sad padders go for t5 bots?

Draschel:  Great game. Played throughout grade 5. No nukes.

Draschel:  armoured warfare and war thunder both have self propelled artilleryworld of warships seemed pretty self propelled artillery to me too. 

Draschel: AE Phase is a better M103.  It is very flexible for a heavy. Typically the best bet you have with your tokensKunze is a bad Leopard PTA. Not even that, it is a bad AMX30 proto. Hard to use, and even when used right, its a poor mans LeopardChar Futur is a modernized bat chat, not left behind circa 2014. It has very good pen, and unlike Bat chat has some armor too.777 is a workhorse, taking the fight to the enemy. Low DPM, poor gun handling - but it makes up for it with HEAT pen and armor, and surprising mobilityGo AE Phase > 777 > Bat Chat > Kunze out of these tanks, I see Kunze being buffed the first, out of the bunch. Like how they buffed T55A. But that can take forever.  

Draschel:  It is what he does. All he does.He is living proof arta is a huge problem 1)  On one side of the moon, there is an extreme struggle. The inability to effectively operate, barely reaching yellow level, not even reaching 1,100 sum in ridiculously strong things, like prog 46, WZ120G, SU130PM, S1, 704.   1,200 in a kamp panzer, really?  1,100 mind you, is something tier 6s do pretty standard these days. Nevermind strong 8s and 9s. And there are a plethora of reasons for this, that we won't broach now, isn't the point. 2)  On the other side of the moon, there isn't a struggle. A steady coast, in 3-marking SPG over thousands of played battles. In which results, very unlike the results seen in other tank classes, are actually promising and contributory. Rather than doing less than personal items HP worth, these arta battles allow the user to do several times their HP worth they are otherwise wholly incapable of doing elsewhere. This is a huge problem, and everyone knows it. Artillery doesn't require any sort of effectiveness, to be effective. You just sit, point, and fire all game. And hope for the best, pray for it.  

Draschel: I don't guess. It is known.There are enough (more than enough) artillery haters, that WG doesn't worry about continuing to nerf them at a steady rate. The known opportunity cost of pleasing a larger crowd which is more oft to complain over artillery, weighs down the smaller crowd angry over artillery nerfs. We have seen this already, for many years, no sign of stopping. Furthermore, WG doesn't even spend a pithy 3 pennies of effort, in furthering artillery in any way - in any profitably paying out of sorts. When was the last time WG released a premium artillery piece? They don't want to. How about a tech line? They don't want to. Risks they aren't willing totake. WG simply doesn't care, and the revenue isn't there for them really to care. And this, cleverly;  allows them the opportunity to instantly divide artillery, such as by tier / bore size for nerfs. Easy to nerf, as they only have to dodge 2 vehicles in said nerfs. 

Draschel:  I meant Favre.  Favre throws a harder, fastest ball than Rodgers. 

Draschel:  He is at 44% WR. He averages like one-shot of tier 5 damage per game. The enemy team, can have have 20 players vs my team's 15, 6 of which are clones of him, and 14 standard others, and I wouldn't feel threatened.He talks, simply because he wants to talk. There isn't any meaning though. 

Draschel:  He didn't fail at all. He said it clearly, correctly. You fail to understandEasy to play. Low skill floor. A cat standing on a keyboard, would play arta about as well as you.Low skill ceiling, restrictive and random. Even the best players will struggle producing typical numbers 

Draschel: M40/43 sat in my garage, the day 9.18 changes hit.M40 43 is still in my garage, to this day. 10,000 exp left. If it weren't for FL, it would remain in my garage forever, till the game packs it inI did 3-4 missions for Stug IV reward TD, using the SU122A. Won't start the T28HTC onesAnd we are only getting started. Lorraine 51 is the same case, but haven't even started.Its just an untouched 220,000 exp that I don't even want to look at.212A crew, GW T crew, FV3805 crew transferred to other classes for other pursuits. 

Draschel: Saying something is spiraling downhill, doesn't mean " 'it has got to be buffed, not nerfed' " But what it certainly implies is stop nerfing it. WG makes alot of their individual non premium vehicle balancing, based off of culminate numbers over a timeline. Like take M44, it took a long time sure, but as the top tier 6 artillery performer, and rare in that post 9.18 it also performed reasonably well within the ranks of total top tier 6 tanks too (no other T6 arta does)  they finally decided to thrash it. But if they remained true to this, it would be implied, that the rest of artillery should be buffed....? Not nerfed? Because most arty dwell at the bottom of tier by tier DPG/WR I do want arty buffed. Because I have arty? Because I haven't been able to step into random battle anymore with an arty, since 2017? Because I can't in anyway duplicate my pre-9.18 SPG DPG, unless some real buffs are doled out? I never said I was behind the motives in War gaming setting out and continuously nerfing them. It's what they do, their end, from overwhelming responses they receive. Not because of draschel's (or anyone's) qualms. What I truly wish for, is a wish. Wishes don't happen, because they are wishes? The idea behind a wish, is that they are so farfetched they couldn't possibly come to fruition. Which is why they are that, a wish. I wish, that arty be changed into TD. But since wishes don't come true, sure arty should be buffed. Not nerfed another,  what....5 times straight?   

Draschel: Its been great stuff,  have to agree.Can't wait for the next round of arty nerfs.I wonder what it will be. Making them even worse.  lolMy money is on taking bite out of  SU8, 212A, M53/55 

Draschel: i....am pretty sure that pic is a great way to earn a strike.  Just saying it now. 

Draschel:  I play everyday I can. But what you see doesn't thump you. That's the way you perceive things.The better players, are better. As in, they produce more. This is a quantifiable metric.  A better person? Better attitude? Better manners? Better  looking?  Who the f--- knows? Who cares? This isn't facebook.They are better at the game. They perform at a higher level. You don't. No one thinks it. They know it.  

Draschel:  You know very little of the game. It shows, clearly. I don't think anyone with 5,800 PR in nearly 30,000 battles, should be lecturing anyone.  If you want to talk about an SA farm account, a  lol  alt, what would I have to fear from arty? Do you know anything? Arty doesn't appear in SA battles that are for the farm. What business of it would it be, if this was my playing account, over how arty impacts gameplay? Arty is totally non-existent in that sort of gameplay. IF THIS WAS THE ACCOUNT, in question. But because I play, where arty actually impacts gameplay, I share the mind of, well the top crust performing players, because well blatantly see it myself clearly. People like you, who perform at quite a noticeably poor level, but then step into SPG and can more or less contribute. It is laughable how ridiculous arty is.  You want to talk about fairness? But do bad everywhere else, except arty? With arty being the equivalent to a bicycle with 3 sets of kiddie wheels helping the driver out.
