Link on message: #61266
merig00: First of all imagine your tank after several hundred battles.
Secondly - the scratches and holes you get in the battle right now
work as indicators to the person shooting at you where his shot
landed and also help you figure out where the shot came from.

it... Its not worth it.

Link on message: #60812

MrVic: I your playing purely "free" the last few tiers will be harder to
maintain without using other tanks. With premium they make profits
on average or break even.
In the long run for me I cleared positive cash on premium with IS to IS-7. Also the cash you earn is dependent on the tier tanks you engage so more things your level
the more credits you get for doing damage to them.
In the end the not worth is part means you don't want to run a premium account which will be from what I have seen a minimal cost

curious. I know this isn't meant to be an exact physics simulation
but I can't help it (old wwiiol player)..
Did y'all test your formulas with military research gun/armor penetration tables or did you just go with an approximation that works?

merig00: AFAIK they used soviet penetration table at 90 degrees and nurfed
it by 30% to adjust to german penetration table (i forgot the name
of it starts with y/j) at 30 degrees. That's how I remember it
being explained, don't hold me to it if I'm wrong though

Archives\Beta\CAP vs KILL ALL
Link on message: #60787

Link on message: #60787
merig00: Well it all depends on situation. If you are loosing - it's better
to cap. If you are winning and the other team has Maus and you have
3 BT-7 it's better to cap. If you are winning and the other team
has one SPG left - sometimes it's fun to hunt it down. But at any
rate - you shouldn't really risk loosing the 50% bonus by
accidently loosing the game when you decide to hunt down the last
Maus or IS-4

SlasherRage, on 07 August 2010 - 07:48 AM, said: The problem with the chat ban is, it also stops the player being
able to pin point enemy for team, and/or organise attacks. Dont get
me wrong, yes for certain things some people do require banning,
but not for disagreeing with a Mod. Thats like saying even if a Mod
is wrong he is right, just cos he can ban you. lol

Link on message: #60073

MrVic: You can disagree with me all day
Thats not something a Mod would or
shall ban anyone for. If that was the case I would Chat Ban Kurt
daily since we frequently have differing opinions on tanks and
balance ect. But the only reason anyone is banned is for actions
that fall in violation of the rules set forth by Wargaming.net.
Disagreeing with a rule is a problem for the player to take to the Admins the Mods are just the enforcers of the rules.
Right now Mod reports and messages sent and moderation on the forums and my battle to destroy all bots and afkers until the new system comes online, just sucks up a ton of the time that would help improve my playing skills. So my time online gets cut short many nights. Also I have to level through tanks I don't get any free. Tho the idea of having a Goliath to dish out punishment on tkers would be sweet... vroom hi Mr Tker BOOOOOOMM!! I don't even Kill Tkers since regardless of being a mod its against the rules, so I do not do it. Since there are mods in our clan any member of our clan is held to higher standards when it comes to the rules. We do not tolerate cheating or any rules violations.

game, not us. At this point i'm not even entirely sure what our
role is supposed to be considering our content and game version is
so far behind what they're testing, what we have has already been
tested, tweaked/changed and moved on from over there.

Link on message: #59357

merig00: Actually the russian beta server is at 0.4.6 and we are at 0.4.5.
And that is only because 0.5 was suppose to come out a week after
so it was decided EU beta would go straight to 0.5 so they wouldn't
have to do 2 localizations less than a week apart. Who knew that
0.5 will have so many problems.

merig00: Well East Coast and some states in Mid West enjoy 150+
But yeah reasonable assumption is
that USA server should be next. Hopefully won't be too long till
Singapore but I guess it all depends on the demand.

But EU/US is not going live, so

I think a soft wipe might be in our future but not for a good while
Hope that helps

into thinking its moving to the tank you want, try clicking on a
tank very far away and it will just switch to the nearest, tried it
3 matches, and it just moves to closest tank but if you try and
click a tank that isnt the closest it will not go to it, seriously
the game is fooling you

than just goes in a circle.

to the message I received, which said "this is your only warning,
the next time you'll be read only." For a single post which did not
pass the premoderation filter for duplicate topics, since
apparently it had come up before, even though I couldn't find any
references in the forum or in the "planned features" thread.
2 strikes and you are out didn't seem very lenient to me. Uh, and lots of multi-exclamation marks kind of reinforced that impression.
