Griffon458, on Apr 26 2021 - 03:30, said: new update changing things in favor of new players isnt so much as
making it easier for new players at low tiers but kicking the
veteran players completely out of tiers lower then 6 by introducing
bots on US server soil and at same time ramping up SA server bots
to NINJA unicum levels .. the old days where you watched stupid
bots drive in circles for 10 minutes and seeing 2 bots trade
gunfire doing zero damage for 12 minutes is over , at least in
battles that have veteran players the bots now rarely if ever miss
or bounce and they almost always PEN now .. the old days of driving
through 4 bots to kill an enemy player are over even the tanks with
thick armor are now getting cut to shreds by bots that are playing
at unicum levels until you play tier 6 and up and faced with your
normal run of the mill stupid player base .. wargaming is pushing
players out of lower tiers with ninja bots look at SA server
population the SA players that used to run to us server to avoid
the seal clubbers are now playing on sa server now to avoid the US
ninja bots as well as the high ping that even US players are seeing
.. wargaming solutions to easy problems are always not solutions

them, if that was ''''improving'''' isn't enough.The bots need to
be improved to levels like the mode, forgot what it was called.
Where you play Churchill, SU85, M4 Sherman fighting off the panzer
invader bots. That mode that you win the IS-2 Shielded Those
bots were actual bots. Always knew where you were, landed
impossible shots, Etc. These are the bots we need, to discourage SA

sierra7, on Apr 26 2021 - 00:18, said: I have criticized in the past when an experienced player
hangs back, I think I'm getting why they do sometimes.
Link on message: #12817289

Draschel: Let us not take into account tanks first, that require
hanging back. For instance something like K-91 medium, or Strv tank
destroyers. Or a hellcat, generally these things are limited to
hanging back. Okay, unto the actual issue. Experienced
proficient players tend not to hang back. They are generally the
most involved, influential. That is why they are where they
are. The hanging back, occurs for major part because of two
reasons. A) late game, in a position of carrying the team,
better players employ significant strategies such as kiting, longer
ranges, bush mechanics, ambushing to their advantage, which likely
is not to the advantage of the enemy. This definitely 'seems' like
hanging back, because its done at long 400m+ ranges B)
The team is a weaker team, and the experienced proficient player
immediately understands it. Especially on crucial maps where
positions are most key. If weaker teams are unwilling to contest
certain areas, it is most likely to result in a clear, immediate
loss. The better player consigns to defeat sure.... but
doesn't give up and does a last stand in the most advantageous
position possible, utilizing allied members as bait (unknowingly
being bait) In these situations, the better player is simply
trying to get as much out of the game as possible, and it looks
like hanging in the back and camping.

Subject: How much "gold" ammo do you carry?

Einzelganger7: It depends, I carry a minimum of 7 premium shells on tanks with
average-good pen with standards like the StuG III ausf. G, Panther,
Jagdpanther, Tiger II, Leopard PT A, Jagdtiger, E-75, etc. If they
have Low standard pen like the Jagdpanzer IV, Panther M10, etc, I
carry up to 14 premium shells. Reason? I aim at weakspots so there
is no need to spam premium, also I like number 7 so this is why my
minimum amount of pemium ammo loaded is that amount. lol

__WarChild__, on Apr 25 2021 - 16:10, said: When this sort of thing happens, I sometimes wonder the
underlying reasons that someone could be so off. Perhaps
they're having a bad day. Maybe they're young and
immature. Perhaps their reading or ability to understand the
meaning of things is limited to begin with. It doesn't bother
me, I just wonder sometimes how they could take one thing and
change it into something else to suit their own negative purposes.
Don't get me wrong, I understand that you and many others
live for these skins. And there must be a good % of players that
fit that bill because for 2 days in a row I've gotten a crew skin
as my Bonus Reward. Clearly there is a market for these types
of things. I am more focused on gifts being of value to the
recipient and this post was meant for recipients like me who
find no value in crew skins. If WG simply moved skins to one of the
Daily Rewards and took one of the Crew Books of 20K and moved it to
Bonus Reward at 100K, THAT would be a worthwhile reward for people
like me. I understand that you're not like me, but you
shouldn't add words to my thread that imply that I am ungrateful
for the free things that WG provides. I get more free stuff
as a partnered CC than any regular player and express my personal
gratitude often to WG, but it is also my purpose to make
suggestions on improvements to the current system. At the
same time that I make a post in here, I write directly to WG in
another media with my suggestion. If this thread adds value
(people agree, etc.), then I will attach the thread to my
suggestion. Another purpose of threads like this for me is
help me determine if I am simply WRONG about a particular
subject. Based upon the responses so far, I'm not wrong but I
may be over estimating the support that I originally thought I had
for this proposition. Thank you for providing your feedback,
I've added you to the list of crew skin supporters.

DeviouslyCursed: I don't like the skins, they are pointless. I'm just not dumb
enough to forget that most of us have played this game for years
before daily missions were a thing. Maybe that's hard for some to
think through. I get it. To the ignorant masses, a little reward
can be worse than no reward. Especially when those ignorant people
have an inflated sense of entitlement. No rewards and no
missions; people just play.Add missions with too small a reward;
suddenly the entitled crowd is crying.

Darntuff, on Apr 25 2021 - 16:00, said: Winning isn't everything. Look, if my team wins 15-2 and the
battle is over so fast I don't even have a chance to do much with
my tank - that is NOT a reward. All anyone really wants when they
play a game is to be able to make some kind of difference. When MM
makes that virtually impossible to do, it's not fun - win or lose.
I feel much better in a loss where I was helping hold and
undermanned flank - only to see the other flank with a tank
advantage get steamrolled than I do in a 15-2 ROFL stomp which is
over in 3 minutes flat. In the former I was making a
difference, in the latter I was just along for a very quick ride.

paste. Any time I have had a issue with a graphics card or cpu its
because I needed to replace the Thermal paste. I know it sounds
crazy , but its probably the most important thing you can do . I
try to replace mine every 6 months or so . Hopefully that fixes it
for you . If not make sure you have everything up to date and you
might want to think about doing a fresh install of windows 10. If
none of that works then its probably your gpu going bad.

GeneralButtBuster, on Apr 25 2021 - 03:40, said: Sorry if this is the wrong place to post for technical issues, I'm
just most familiar with this section of the forum and didn't see
anything else. Anyways, today I started experiencing issues
with my graphics card and running WoT. I had my first crash just a
few games in and thought it may just be a one time issue, but the
game proceeded to crash 4 more times in the course of my next 10 or
so battles. Each time I tried changing something to fix it, but I
don't think I have solved it yet and was wondering if anyone here
knows a thing or two about this. Some background, the PC I
have is 3 or 4 years old, and I built it myself. Its run the game
well on 100+ fps with ultra graphics with no issues until now. I
recently however tried to run a much more demanding game on it, and
it had trouble, so I went through the steps of overclocking my PC
to try and boost the performance. Ultimately, it didn't make a
difference and I still couldn't run the game, but I didn't care too
much because I liked WoT better anyways. I did this overclocking
just a few days ago, and only played maybe 20 games between the
overclocking and the graphics card performance issues, which led me
to think the overclocking was causing the issues. I reverted the
overclocking settings to the best of my ability after the crashes,
but am still having issues. I don't really know what else could be
causing this issue, I tried dropping the graphics settings in-game
too and that didn't fix it. I guess maybe just an old graphics
card? Ideally I don't want to have to buy another graphics card, so
I'm asking here to see if anyone has any other possible
solutions. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

that they stopped doing that b/c they're too hard to complete in a

the slight increase in reward is typical Wargaming maneuver - which
is sad. __WarChild__ PS - I know there's a

your rating, you will see more win chance games in your favor
(because you are a constant on your team, and you are rated
higher). If you play worse and just yolo, you will lose more,
because you are playing like crap and bringing your team
down. Your position here is the exact reason NOT to go to
SBMM. Because no matter how crappy you do, the MM will compensate
and give you wins when you don't deserve it. There is no incentive
