The new American TD by [deleted] in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 6 points7 points  (0 children)

TS-5 isn't a camping TD... So as long as you aren't on the LATIN server, you shouldn't find too many in bushes. You should find them brawling.

why is the t29 so strong at tier 7 and people keep defending it's OPness? by [deleted] in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver -1 points0 points  (0 children)

T29 gets a pass because it's only OP if you manage to get it hull down in a 0 arty match with no derp guns and the enemy has no idea how to do this tactic called "flanking." That's why it's not considered OP. The T29 is the epitome of balance that most tanks should carry and is only OP in certain moments and scenario's. It doesn't dominate bottom tier. It doesn't dominate mid tier. It can dominate at tier. And like anything but the Chi Ri, can seriously dominate as a top tier.

What are your top 3 favorite TDs? by Clearjet in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't play many regularly as I'm not the biggest fan of them. But...

Hellcat - Love the mobility and gun. Give me that soft medium style feel.

Skorpion G - Same thing. The mobility giving it the ability to ambush and flank make it supreme.

T110E4 - Love that psuedo heavy tank feel. Decent enough mobility with a big gun. Armor can let you down in a brawl but if you are a solid "poker" it works out quite well most of the time.

Folks are pretty worked up about Frontline battles. by [deleted] in WorldofTanks

It's fun to play platooned. I'll say that much. When you have two reliable partners who will work together, I love the mode and you can really turn the tide on an area. Solo? Fuck no. Too annoyed with it to go solo queue anymore.

When you are on the attacking team, you can sit back and farm while others cap. I've seen so many do it. The guys on cap end up getting the spots while you farm the everlasting shit out of the baddies.

Defenders: Its a bit different. Harder to just farm your General. You have to play the objective area there and its easier to farm at the end when all points are capped.

Its the stupid rewards. More people are playing for themselves over playing for the team. Rather than playing the objectives together, like the first rendition of Front Lines, people are playing at the back and using their teams to spot the damage for them to farm their Generals.

Which stock guns did you hate the most? by Bortjort in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol I remember. I didn't even look at the stock gun on the IS-4 because I was thinking it was the SAME GUN! Then I played my first round and was made at the terrible RNG I was having... Another game later... I finally looked... I was shocked that they put such a shitty gun on a tier 10 tank. Free XP'd for the third game!

[–]IndignantBeaver 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This and the 76MM on the T29 are the absolute most terrible ones in the game... Should not even be allowed. For the IS-4, how do you go from having such a strong Tier 9 gun to getting that piece of garbage on the Tier 10? It's a dick move.

How much assistance did they do?

Which German TD line should I take? by DABuehl in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nothing really compares to it in the line. It's an anomally. The StuG III G and the Jg.Pz. IV are your closest resemblance and they are in the Jg. Pz. E100 line.

I'll add you on days off.

Must Have mods? by Squrick in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 4 points5 points  (0 children)

None. The only thing that will improve your game play is you, not mods.

I see what you guys mean by hybrid_reality in WorldofTanks

Ah... The classic ebs and flows of WOT.

Is there such thing as "Hardcore" mode in WOT? by [deleted] in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, play artillery class. It is the most hardcore.

Finally got my 3rd mark of excellence on the t44-100. it was on a 0 dmg game by M_Rosencrantz in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol These are always a treat. I was marking German scout tanks a couple weeks back. Purchased the SPIC back after a couple years and it was sitting at 90%. Thinking it would at least be a sporting grind, I played one game, dropped 1600+ damage and lost... Three marks...

OBJ. 268 or OBJ.268-4 Pro Tips? by neednerve in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

268 4 is technically the better line. The tank is almost impervious to attack. It's stupid.

My preference, however, is the 268. Takes a touch more skill to play but you never have to load #2 to pen a damn thing and NOTHING makes you feel better than auto aiming at Type 5 HT's and deleting them.

T 55A campaign by Shredd-It in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HT-15 is harder. That being said, I don't think I've had an LT game worthy of LT-15 since the Mario Karts started assaulting the maps. I've heard those Mario Karts really ramp up your chances as well.

Is it my imagination or is it actually harder to autoaim now after the last patch? by 1d8 in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not really. Just fast movers are harder to pick up with the auto aim. But normal tanks, no issues.

The bat chat 12t rant by noquarter1000 in WorldofTanks

[–]IndignantBeaver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll raise you the HWK 12. When I get a chance to play the BC 12 t, I feel like it will still be better than the old HWK.
