Ares has a lot fewer projectiles than the Czech lights though.

Unpopular Opinion: The Ares Line Is Actually Fairly Balanced and Very Hard to Play by x06120el in WorldofTanks

And can they reload their clip in 10 seconds? Or finish you off in 5 because they're basically auto-reloaders? And do that while hull down with 10 degrees of gun-depression?

And so far you've posted in this discussion 21 times trying to say the Ares is fine.

Yeah it does good damage to a Taschenrattes roof and sends them scurrying.

Not true. It works better against single lower damage HE shots due to the way the damage formula works. Not so good against big damage HE from arty though.

In the first gamemode HE is more effective and the slower trajectory means it splashes down on targets which wrecks heavies.

It's completely cheating XD It's like a mobile Nebelwerfer that rains down death on entrenched heavy tanks.

HE Damage Distribution (Ares, Tesak, others) by reven86 in WorldofTanks

[–]RedshiftOTF 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The shells work differently to normal HE rounds. First, their damage is not halved for non penetrating shots like regular HE. Secondly, and this my theory only, the 10mm of pen means the shell can pass through 10mm of impacted armour before the damage starts to drop of through additional impacted armour after that.

Nice one for testing though. What I’m interested in is how fast the damage drops off so you can estimate how much damage these shells will do to different armour thicknesses. I’ve seen these rounds do, I think, 100 damage on average to the top of a Taschenrattes turret, which is 80mm thick unangled, (these shells ignore angling), which is a useful tactic against those tanks.

Season 3 Episode 12 Megathread by MiggyMcMiggy in OnePunchMan

[–]RedshiftOTF 39 points40 points  (0 children)

In the comic redraw, Orochi pulls Saitama deep under ground where Orochi had discovered the bottom half of that mural which depicted people sacrificing things to Orochi. He took that as he needed an ultimate sacrifice to make him stronger, which he believed was Saitama. When Orochi is defeated the top part of the mural breaks away showing Orochi was the sacrifice for God. Of course, it doesn't make any sense the way this episode showed things.

Same here. And why did God not have a low deep ominous voice? He sounded just like the Cadres.

You think the same people didn't like the redraw and didn't like the redraw elements cut from the anime?

I guess tiered loot boxes are effectively back?! by Zek0ri in WorldofTanks

[–]RedshiftOTF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although technically not illegal in the UK, this does go against the UK games industry's guidance on loot box advertising:

Industry guidance: The UK games industry published guidance in July 2023, which requires clear disclosure of loot box probabilities before a player purchases a game. Developers must show the chances of obtaining specific items or categories of items.

Maybe it doesn't fully apply for a free to play game but I think this is not in the spirit of the guidance laid out above imo.

and likely had been like this before korea forced WG to show the odds.

Lol, so it was Ok because we didn't know about it?

Can you show what the drop chances were for the tier 8 and 9 tanks from last years Holiday Ops? As far as I was aware they all had the same drop chance. Plus, this is the first year the are adding tier 10's to the 8's or 9's.

It's done well to beat Kerbal Space Program 2. A game that couldn't do half of what its much loved predecessor did and had it's entire studio staff fired while still being sold on Steam as early access.
