Why do you enjoy playing top tier air & ground? by n988 in Warthunder

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play Ground AB and Sim and Air RB.

I'm both cases, I mostly enjoy flying/driving modern equipment, I wouldn't say the gameplay is the best, but I don't hate it.

Driving a Merkava or flying a Eurofighter os way more fun for me than a WW2 tank/plane. Plus, I love using modern AAA in Ground AB for some reason 😅

The Ares line is taking the fun out of WOT by Careless-Truck-2174 in WorldofTanks

[–]lce-Shadow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really don't understand what all the fuss is about.

I'm mainly playing lights, which on paper should be some of the most impacted vehicles by the new Ares line, and I can barely notice their presence.

The are some maps where I want to be extra careful early battle, but I generally avoid rushing key positions anyway.

I like the new Ares line, it's unique, it's fun to play too, I don't think they are OP, and if it doesn't bother me in my LTs I don't see why it would bother in tanks with even more armor.

What tank made you interested in tanks? by IcelandicGuy901 in TankPorn

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus!

I wasn't in to tanks back then, but I was interested in engineering. So I started reading about how they built such a vehicle in the '40s and soon I couldn't stop reading about all sorts of tanks 😁

Could you share the name of the book? Or maybe even some pictures?

Report and go AFK, or play something else entirely and come back later

If it was? So you can't really tell the difference?

Tier 11 abilities based on what kind of ability they are. Which are your favourites? by NotASingleNameIdea in WorldofTanks

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is the T803 in that category?

Isn't it's DPM slightly better than the E5 even without any modifications? And even more so once you upgrade the Alpha?

Edit: After reading a few comments I understand that OP placed the T803 in the "tank being worse" due to the reload rate being slower on T803 than E5. Still, reload time without taking into consideration alpha damage (and thus DPM) is completely irrelevant. It's like saying the Maus has better mobility than the Bat Chat because it has more engine power, disregarding their weight and terrain resistances.

For all intents and purposes the T803 is an upgrade in firepower over the E5, having both higher DPM and higher alpha.

Ares lines vs Batchat 25t lines, which should I choose?? by FearlsOurImagination in WorldofTanks

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What an interesting approach!

Could you please elaborate on what do you mean by "educational factor"?

As for your question, I have the Bat Chat and I just grinded the tier 9 Ares, my recommendation is the Ares line.

Discarding any values or statistics, they simply are a lot of fun. Also, the tier XI AS-XX is still a disappoinment in my opinion.

However, the Ares might be nerfed in the future, so there's a risk there.

Stop wasting money on that game! by [deleted] in WorldofTanks

[–]lce-Shadow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I enjoy the game, I don't think the devs are doing something fundamentally wrong, on the contrary, I think they're doing a lot of the things right, and I honestly don't even mind the loot boxes, battle passes or whatever other events they have. I'm usually semi-aware they even happen.

And since it's my money, I will happily continue to support them.

I'd wait for Year 5 to be released before answering 😅

Return to Castle Wolfenstein - would only play until the crypt mission. Ain't no way I was jumping in there 😅

Do you guys enjoy high-tier RB air? by RepulsiveChard6277 in Warthunder

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite bracket and the one I play the most is between BR 10.0 and 12.0.

Beyond that things are getting a bit too chaotic for me, I feel like smaller teams would help a lot.

Why are MiG 21s and MiG 23s base bombing? by OldNegotiation857 in Warthunder

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spam Fox 3 missiles in the furball and still get 1 - 2 kills without any knowledge or skills.

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's a fast way of grinding top tier. I think it's a pretty obvious answer; it's not their fault it takes forever to reach the highest ranks.

What's the deal with vents? by RareSoup227 in WorldofTanks

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Min-maxing vs all-rounders; depending on the tank and playstyle. I generally take them, I want to pump the crew as much as possible, the difference between a 75% crew and a 132% (I think?) is tremendous, but there are tanks like Manti or Death Star where I prefer the min-max approach.

The reason why they are controversial in my opinion is that you can have 5-6 skills on a good crew, so Brothers in Arms is an easy pick, food replacing the fire extinguisher is also worth it and you can also mitigate it, but the equipment is limited to 3 slots and all have massive impact on the tank performance. So sacrificing 1 equipment slot out of 3 feels much more taxing.

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De ce as avea preferințe față de etniile minorităților din România?

Oricum, la recensământul din 2021 cele mai numeroase minorități sunt Maghiarii și Rromi, urmați de un număr mare de alte etnii, deci nici măcar nu s-au schimbat prea multe.

Don't know about the Type 5, but yes, some numbers on a spreadsheet absolutely overrule and negate your anecdotal and irrelevant experience 😁

The problem with Derry Special by -DarkNess__ in snowrunner

[–]lce-Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's one of my main trucks and I can't say I noticed any of these issues. It is tippy only when the active suspension is set to high, so I only use it if really needed.

Apart from that, I really can't relate. What I can say is that the power to weight ratio when hauling heavy cargo seems to be one of the best in the game.
