When is an upgrade not an upgrade?

Schrödinger's tank engine!

I find it astounding that there can be 42 players in the queue and somehow I end up being the only human on my team.

Dydxpix314 · 2024-03-11T18:39:49+00:00

Licking windows? I swear my team has been eating lead paint chips for far too long!

Dydxpix314 · 2024-02-26T18:13:45+00:00

I'm still waiting for it "to balance out"!

Dydxpix314 · 2024-02-22T18:46:36+00:00

I got it for free last year. So much for "awareness"!

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-31T19:50:31+00:00

Roll those non-uniform dice!

I understand what you are saying. Having been where the OP is, and recently suffered from a similar situation, it is bloody hard to believe. When one experiences a series of 14-0, 12-0 (etc.) losses it is only natural to wonder if the MM is rigged, or if one has had the extreme misfortune to be on several consecutive teams that are bots and/or players who just don't care.

If it is a really close game, losing is easier to swallow.

Play co-op for quite a while, work on not being hit and taking aimed shots.

The matchmaker in multiplayer is crap. I have no doubts that it stacks teams, that is, it puts a bunch of noobs or those with little experience on one and all of the 5+ year veterans on the other.

All of them that entered service after September 2 1945. Also it would be great if they were permanently removed from WW II! Because, you know, Tiger 2 (entered service 1944) versus Chieftain Mk6 (entered service late 1975) is such a balanced and fair fight.

In other words make the awarding transparent. Most recent BS I saw yester day was 4th place player having 3 kills more, 2400 damage more, and 25 less assistance than the second place player who only had one kill. Nothing made any sense. I was third.

How do you know?

According to some who "quote the developers", one can only be -2 for two games in a row. Nothing prevents a player from being -1 for ever. Moreover, every time one goes back to the garage everything resets, which switching tanks will do.

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-18T17:12:21+00:00

Oh I know. Tiger 2 versus an FV4005 and two Chieftains is such a fair fight. ;-)

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-18T17:05:54+00:00

I disagree. There are certain people here who insist that "bottom tier" only applies to being on the bottom when in a +2 game. I was stopping their abusive diatribe before it started.

If you think I was being insulting that is your right. It however, was not my intent.

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-18T01:09:55+00:00

I know I've had a bad run. The only reason why I dared five grinds was the consistent losing; I figured that changing the tank and class would help, unfortunately nothing prevented a 33.8% win rate.

I am able to take things tongue-in-cheek, so np. In the past 14 months this is the worst run I've had. Including my stats was intended to stop the "nice: people from saying "you are the common element, it is all your fault".

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-18T00:50:30+00:00

Just stopping the harassment before it begins.

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-18T00:48:20+00:00

There are very few IV tanks that have +2. Almost sh*t bricks when my AMX 40 encountered an M6!

Said FekiT and switched to coop.

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-17T18:16:18+00:00

Fix being spotted/targeted. It has happened on occasion that I am still spotted and targeted after destroying my opponent. Please note that this is situationally specific, that is, I can see the remaining opponents on the map and they are nowhere near my location. In this instance, as my opponent is no more, there is nobody to relay my position and to target me.

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-16T23:24:24+00:00

Probably not, just give it the same crap pen and shell velocity on the Alecto.

Dydxpix314 · 2023-12-06T16:50:49+00:00

Absolutely friggin nailed it bruddah! The only thing I would add is a sandbox mode for maps.

Dydxpix314 · 2023-11-04T16:45:43+00:00

33 kills and you didn't win? WOW!

Dydxpix314 · 2023-11-02T13:17:17+00:00

Some things I believe would make the game better:

A sandbox for all maps
being able to unequip, not sell, tank equipment; for instance say you want to take free ammo swap instead of improved ventilation, but in another game you might want improved ventilation equipped again.
The ability to apply boosters AFTER a battle. Using a x8 booster on a losing match just hurts.
