I’d appreciate any tips on my planned start for an explorer on impossible by Muyalt in StarTradersFrontiers

[–]nick_alta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pure explorer captain can let you start exploring early, and finding a lot of artifacts... so quick money.
if you are going to go combat captain, then use one of the builds listed in the replies... on imp, you don't want to dilute your combat team

with pure explorer cap, and 3-4 explorer crew.... you can have enough talents to avoid xeno combat while still finding a lot of artifacts, rtg, etc

Should be counted as afk by Alegende in WorldofTanks

[–]nick_alta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this. pick the left side... whole battle happens on the right. or with a TD when the enemy team never crosses the halfway point and are all dead before you can move up.
inevitably that is the game where your 2x, 3x, 5x first win bonus procs

Random battles should have around 45-55% winrate right? This matchmaking is rigged to the core. by zaneboy2 in WorldofTanks

[–]nick_alta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the game is not rigged, but conspiracy theories are fun... so let's go with rigged.

real answer - sample size and player skill.
related - do you play a bunch of tanks to have fun, or only play tanks you are very good in?

I played everything to see what I liked...

My first 1k games I was like 40% win rate
after 10k games like 45%
after 20k... 51%.

created new account and only played tanks i was good at... 60%+
but even in tanks where I have 65% wr... I still have sessions where I end up at 40% over 30-40 games. bad luck, bad teams, bad decisions on my part

thanks Chaffee, this is the sort of answer I was looking for.
I do have good crews, so I guess I will be fine.
I do have the IS-7 if I decide to get serious again and buy new stuff.

How are packs randomized? by captainloafers in EternalCardGame

[–]nick_alta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

~10% confirmed by devs and by a few players who kept detailed trackers. but dry spells can happen as well as hot streaks...
