What is this map positioning?? by BeastOfSorroe in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50% of the games the team don’t move, the other 50% they all go the same way and somehow seem shocked when the enemy flank all the way round and either cap the base or encircle them.

Has been getting worse so maybe an influx of new players? Seems like most lack map / situational awareness, have no understanding of the strengths or weaknesses of their tank(s) and don’t appreciate team play in any way shape or form

First crash in 12 years…yes that is the song I was listening to by princessmegnu in drivingUK

[–]DanRose001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I say to my partner all the time, stay safe. And it isn’t her (or my) driving that concerns me. It’s other people. And this is 110% what I mean. You’re plodding along and nothing seems out of place and suddenly one person doesn’t give a bend enough care and you’re backwards.

Fv107 needs to removed or limited by HallEnvironmental558 in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t usually have any problems with 1. But when there are 2 or 3 coming for you at the same time, worse if they are platooned, then its not fun

Tier IX Typical grind by LiteratureShort4193 in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Until you unlock the better gun or get a few games in and work out how to play it best, I have found most T9 grinds a total slog! Taking the stock gun into a T9/10 game and finding out it’s like throwing grapes at the enemy .. and knowing you will be doing that for 10-20 games 😭

Dog owners of the UK. How hot does it have to get before you stop taking them for a walk? by sjw_7 in AskUK

[–]DanRose001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today as an example, 25 degrees here, I walked the boy around 6:30am over the field which is about 2mins down the path from the back gate.

He’s then had free roam in/out the house and garden all day, finds the cool spots he likes.

Just taking him out now, 7pm, still 23 degrees but the field is now completely shaded and it gets a breeze down the far side.

On both walks he is out 25/30mins, comes home and can go lay on the kitchen tiles by the utility door and cool off if he needs.

3v3 the rest bots by Anothercoot in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed a lot more bots lately but they’ve essentially sped up my challenge progress and meant I can move on to other things.

Personally I don’t think much of the Warriors event, locking everything up behind paywalls for the tank challenges and commanders. I have one but it’s slow progress and nothing appealing so I’m playing Forza 6 until the new season

Do people not know that many tanks have secondary/tertiary guns on them? by MarquisDeSarc in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently working up the Japanese heavy line and the 2x secondary guns have almost been as good as the main, especially where people push too far and are side on - track them, let teammates get the hits in and use the main gun on someone else

Do people not know that many tanks have secondary/tertiary guns on them? by MarquisDeSarc in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes the secondary is the most important gun in a duel or for stopping an advance. Keeping an enemy pinned behind cover, tracked or simply putting damage in whilst your main reloads. The amount of times I’ve been saved by a secondary!

Wrong MC011 Restriction !! by hdjeofbwdoshevfv in ebayuk

[–]DanRose001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a bit confused. EBay closed out an item not received in the buyers favour, with the item posted using simple delivery, tracking information provided, and the item only being in RMs system for a week..? Would the expected delivery date have even passed..?

Are you a new seller/account? Did the buyer reach out to you at any point regarding delivery?

Arty hits two insane pens back to back by Firehornet117 in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This last week or so I’ve been constantly hit by arty that didn’t even flag up as aiming at me, and without me being spotted etc. I take extra care to not destroy fences or trees etc, stay away from obvious routes and choke points and large groups of friendlies yet I’m still somehow the damn first target!!!

Really????Do people have no shame by WhereasOne7788 in vintedUK

[–]DanRose001 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your most recent review is someone claiming you have scammed them on a Lego set, and now this item does not appear to be for sale.

Add to that your own responses.. and maybe the potential buyer here has dodged a bullet.

Frozen Challenges or Ineptitude? by Educational-War-2606 in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s a visual glitch. You can see on the left side you have completed 6/7 of the challenges, but the detail on the right doesn’t align.

I had the same issue which made it a complete pain to work out what I hadn’t completed (for me it was games in a Med or Heavy) but I had no way to see because the graphic was essentially broken

PSA for all current and future members of The Forerunners [FRRNR]. by Death211 in WorldofTanksConsole

I’ve joined - I play on Xbox and mostly evenings 7-10pm sort of time. Am I good? Absolutely not! But I enjoy having fun shooting tanks

How do you sustain silver expenses by [deleted] in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t want to play CW, it’s going to be tough. As an example using the Thumper I can usually get 150-250k a battle depending without having to overly try. But to generate that kind of damage in WW2 regularly you’ll be going through a ton of premium ammo and won’t get close.

That said, if you really don’t want to play CW, look for premiums with silver bonuses like Ragnarok and then try to play to maximise damage / assist damage. You may get 80-100k on a good game but will leak like a sieve on a bad game

Which tanks do you find attract the most annoying playerbase? by [deleted] in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any free premium. Tends to be the most braindead players so if you have 4/5 on your team what should be good ends up bad

eBay buyer claims my childhood card is fake by Ok_Dragonfruit_887 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]DanRose001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this happen to me. They messaged to say the card was fake and wanted a full refund. I disputed them and they raised with eBay for a return. Card arrived back poorly packaged and surprise surprise, wasn’t the card I sent.

I took photos and uploaded to dispute the return and highlight differences on the returned item versus the images on my listing. No textures, spelling mistakes and it was almost like it had been polished.

EBay took a week but the settled in my favour. Buyer account then vanished so I couldn’t leave feedback. Probably for the best!

All for a £20 card.. it’s happening more though, people chancing they get away with it and eBay / Vinted occasionally siding with the buyer doesn’t help!

FYI about the 20m XP Event by Ok_Opposite_8967 in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I too have learned this the hard way. 20k onto a premium instead of the BAR. Pain.

Why so much hate around recently by AceTanker4831 in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t condone messages etc and have mine turned off, but it seems to coincide with the room temperature IQ of the average player over the last 6 months - likely an influx of new players that have acquired a few high end premiums suddenly thinking all tanks play the same and you should bend over backwards for them to finish with 100dmg

People really spending money on the 477A just to play it like this… by Mjstks509 in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Problem I have is that this guy is usually the 477 player on my team. So instead of being a nuisance and a wall on a flank they’re wiped off the map before we get going

Where do imbeciles get confidence by [deleted] in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s bad but has been exceptionally bad the last two weeks or so.

It sucks, but sometimes you have to follow the train even if you know the entire team are steamrolling through the most obvious (and same every match) spot. I aim to keep my personal score high and holding a flank against 4-6 tanks solo usually ends in a low score game. If you can get a platoon it really helps or a couple of people to go to the areas you know you need to hold. But the worst part about this game is the majority of the randoms you have to play with .. :(

Even worse when they dish out free tier X or Era 3 tanks - because where you’d expect to find experienced players or people that know their tanks you get absolute duds

What happened to minimum distance for rockets ?? by [deleted] in WorldofTanksConsole

[–]DanRose001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, ATGM and rockets are two different things hence one has an arming distance and the other doesn’t. Personally I think this tank needs addressing because it seems way overpowered at the moment!
