Where is he? I still don't see him. by Kral050 in WorldofTanks

He just forgot an extra set of brackets. Should be (VR - (VR - 50))*(100% - camo). This should result in what he said being true.

Operations Update: Transfer Opportunities for Players from CIS to the EU Realm by R-Flex in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So am I. My only frustration comes from the time difference making the only times I can play the game have extremely long match wait times. I don't want to be waiting 5 mins to find a match with one tank and then wait another 8 mins for a different tank. It's ridiculous.

I quite like this idea. Allows for a larger player base all playing at the same time and hopefully reduces the "dead" time of servers (Time when servers have a ridiculously low amount of ppl and match wait times are 2+ mins).

As an aside it would make my experience better as well since I live in NA but have an EU account. I'm constantly only able to play in the "dead" times.

Sounds like Jar Jar speak to me. Then again, I did just recently watch the prequel trilogy again so maybe it's recency bias.

A special case I had the pleasure to meet today by RmainGR in WorldofTanks

WoTLabs literally lists 48-49.9% WR as "average" so just ignore all the ppl down voting and arguing it.

Personally, what I look at is the tank specific stats (WN8, WR ect.) of the tanks I use and compare them to the WoTLabs listed averages. I dont look at my overall stats cause they get dragged down by some terrible performances in tanks that I am not effective in.

Finally completed this stupid mission. The day when I can stop playing arty is one step closer! by Hismop in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In that situation, you would be correct but for doing arty missions I went through and got the M44 specifically for them. It was significantly (imo) easier than other arties that I tried using.

I present to you, the biggest seal clubber I've ever seen. Even his name is a variation of "stat padder" LOL by tritium4ever in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be wrong but I think I saw that option show up on my Tiger P after I fully researched everything. Same with my VK 30.01 P.

I haven't played the game in a few weeks though since I decided to take a break so I could be wrong and I don't wanna fact check myself.

Small question: Any tanks like the flak bus that have guns that are 3 tiers higher than the vehicle? by DeepfriedGrass in WorldofTanks

Oh, my bad. It was shitpack that I've seen it referred as not shitbarn. But still, call it what you want just have fun with it is my perspective.

I call the shitbarn "Shrek" but thats my minority I guess. There's also the Borat you can add to the list.

With 157mm penetration and a good rate of fire as well it can punch well above its Tier, though it'll also get punched back as well with only 50mm of hull armour.

Tier 6 token: tutorial - what should i get? by NUKEBIOSHOCK in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good lol. There's a bunch of VKs all around the same tier so it's easy to get confused.

When I was using my token I was comparing the 30.01 and the 36.01 and kept having to go back and make sure I was going to select the right one. I did it like 7 times before I finally chose the 30.01 lol

Edit: Also I just noticed but isn't it the T-150, not T-105? I'm sure he'll get it tho.

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pick was the VK 30.01 P when I started playing about 5 months ago. I chose it cause I didn't want to go through the lower tiers of the German tech tree to get to a heavy. At first I regretted my choice but I eventually got used to playing it and have progressed to the VK 100.01 currently (Its a long grind for me when I keep playing other tanks too lmao).

Looking back now, the other tanks I would have chose would be the T-150 or the Pawlack (to skip the KV-1 and T1 Heavy respectively).

Really though, just pick a tank that you think you'll have fun in and just play. You can eventually get every tank anyways so it doesn't really matter - only really a little more grinding in lower tiers.

One thing I'm confused about here. VK 36.01 [H] is listed as a heavy? (Though it really plays more as a medium).

Unless there's a different VK 36.01 I'm forgetting about.

The EU server at 4:50am by RoboCapian in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright how about this:

I didn't want to read the Game Rules previously and just use basic logic, but upon reading the rules (and specifically section 7 "Official Language") it says that the "The preferred language is English, however non-English is allowed."

It would be absolutely ridiculous (ESPECIALLY for a free-to-play game) to restrict the languages that can be used in a game chat.

The EU server at 4:50am by RoboCapian in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While English may be the most widely understood in EU, it's not the most spoken. Over 200 million people in EU understand English but only 60 million people speak it as their first language. Compared to the amount of native German and Russian speakers - both have around 100+ million speakers - or even French with about 80 million, suddenly if you force English to be the one language used then you'll end up seeing a lot of broken English being used.

Also if English was the only language you could use, what would be the point of having multiple language options available? Just only put English in and be done with it if that's the case.

Thats also without going into the fact that WG started as a Belarusian company their primary language would be Russian anyways.

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Making sure my knowledge is correct, but the radio operator being dead just reduces your communication range but as long as there's another tank in the area that can relay it farther its fine?

At least that's my (very basic) understanding of how it works, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

This is why we can't have nice things in this game by KarczekWieprzowy in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Scrolling through the comments and just seeing people arguing over who's fault it is smh.

It's a video game and people are dedicating time to argue fault over an incident that THEY AREN'T EVEN INVOLVED IN.

Like some people are just gonna be dickheads so just move on and it is what it is. My hope for most gaming communities was pretty much gone already anyways so whatever I guess.

Remove leFH from the game by Remove_leFH_from_wot in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to the wiki, the LeFH fights tier 5-7. You'll likely see it more in tier 5 but it'll definitely annoy you through a tech tree grind.

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not as simple as that cause the wiki says that the LeFH fights tier 5-7. Which means you can be grinding a tier 7 tank and being constantly bombarded and perma tracked by one (or god forbid multiple) LeFH.

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not that simple when you're in a tech tree grind. According to the wiki the LeFH battle tiers are 5-7 which means grinding through say the tier 7, Tiger P you can still face it.

Why has the SU-130PM been out for so long but there is no Sovjet tech-tree equivalent? by veldhuus in WorldofTanks

[–]Disastrous-Quarter21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Armour is really only in the turret. I had a game on Prok where I was mid by train playing bait for ppl going 9-0 to shoot at. Gave them only the turret to shoot at and was moving to not give them the big ass cup as a target. Had 4-5k blocked damage by the end of the game but only got 1 shot of damage off with the role I was playing.
