Woo, just hit 5000 matches.

Here's the replay of it. It's a great match!

That IS-3 will never live that down. :fluttersmith:

And training rooms are pretty fun:

I wish there was just a big ol' random training match mode, with a matchmaker that pits tier 10s against tier 1s.
I'd play it, and hide and a bush for 10+ minutes while spamming smack.

I wanna try out the game mode on the RU server, the "White Tiger"

I wanna see how long I'd live against it

more armor, better 88, and it's basically what the RU server gets instead of Ratte, which, frankly, is a better trade-off

But so yea, I wanna see how many asses it'd take to kill it :iamapony:

E: Oh man, if the deletes weren't soon enough, the moderators are gonna have my ass... If you saw my triple post, I am very sorry... internet was lagging, so I went ahead and got stupid and clicked on submit a fair amount of times...

That was a promotional thing for the movie "White Tiger." It's a Russian film. It has the E-100's gun, and they ran a promotional for the movie where T-34-85s would get double credits, but could also be randomly selected for the White Tiger battle. You'd have 15 T-34-85s fighting basically the angel of death. It's a white Tiger P with what, 3000 HP? Whoever kills it (maybe all of them) get a badge.

Holy shit. That sounds totally fucking hardcore.

(?) · by **Walkin Goon** (?) » Wed May 30, 2012 12:29 pm

I believe it actually has about 15,000 Hp, and is basically upscaled in everything else to boot.

Have a video of it.

Wish the NA server could've got in on that. :-/

Fuck yes. I can't wait to ram me some IS's into buildings, and its about time they it possible to ramp through those annoying train carts. :v:

Oh, and the British mediums look cool, too, I guess.

Heh, if the Brits are shitty, I'm leaving da game for good (I have xbow now! So yay! Screename is my master screenname: Teru9133 (There was another Teru I guess :pinkieshrug:

just a little canoeing trip we did a bit of hiking(had to hike in wet clothes). but of course first day back my school gets a bomb threat :-/

So, the Jagdtiger 88 Pak 43 kinda owns. Its reload rate is 4.56s with rammer and vents, and its great for dishing out shit-tons of DPS or annihilating fast things. If you can get into an ambush position on an unwary heavy, its over for them.

(?) · by **ScionVyse** (?) » Fri Jun 01, 2012 2:09 am

Oh yeah, that thing is going to be crazy OP. The IS-6 on the other hand, sucks really, really hard.

oh yeah it does. been playing with it. at first didn't know how to use it since my top tier td is a slugger. but been doing pretty well in it in the last few matches.

How does it turn? I expect it to be a giant fat fuck because the Jagdtiger is fat at 870hp so I don't expect much from a 700hp engine.

The regular Jagdtiger has a traverse of 21 degrees and the JT 88 has a traverse of 22 degrees which doesn't feel too slow. But I'm used to driving my tectonic plate (T95), sooooo

Also, the 7.4 test added in a DPM stat - the JT 88 does 2,667 DPM, my T95 does 2,459 DPM, and my T25 AT does 2,110 DPM.

Oh and I'm pretty sure its matchmaker is tweaked. I'd say about 60% of the matches are t8, 40% T9-T10. And i was really doubting its ability to hold its own in the T10 matches, but it does alright just because it can throw so much downrange that you're bound to found a weakspot eventually. Or you just turn into a gigantic dick and start tracking everything.

:memories:

-edit: Oh neat, they added important stats for the tank's tooltips. Lights have their top speed, hp/t, traverse, and view range listed. Mediums have top speed, hp/t, traverse, and DPM. Heavies have hull/turret armor, damage per shot, and shell pen. TDs list top speed, traverse, DPM, and pen. Arty shows damage per shot, burst radius, accuracy, aim speed, and reload in seconds.

Yeah but what the tracks say about how fast it can turn doesn't matter because that's it's maximum rate not how much it actually turns; having a higher maximum rate doesn't mean shit when your engine is underpowered and you can't even reach that number (see: SU-152). The Jagdtiger already feels fat with a 870hp engine so my question was how does it preform with a shittier one at 700hp.

Its slow, but not offensively slow.

Also I feel sorry for everyone who wasted their free 15k test gold on an IS-6, its so bad. My 200pen 88 can pen their front armor all day long. Also russian players are seemingly incapable of moving after they've been spotted, which has led to some hilarious times when I've fired a good 7-8 shots blindly and then re spotted the IS-6 at 116hp. Oh, and I've never had so much fun counter-batterying before, its like its a foreign concept or something.

(?) · by **Walkin Goon** (?) » Fri Jun 01, 2012 6:58 am

I thought nothing would surpass the dueling B1's, but there is no sadder sight than two IS-6's trying to penetrate the other.

Financial transaction.
Date: Friday, June 01, 2012 2:58:15 AM
You have received gold: 500

So did LordKane. It can't be the classic tourney gold because there's still tiebreaker matches and then it would be 800 not 500.
Fakeedit: I got it for being a WoWP alpha :awesomedash:

LordKane found out.

They give me 500 gold for having a tier 2 plane. Feels kind of like I cheated them.

Edit: I got an email from them thanking me for my hard work. They also write the 500 gold can be used in WoWP once it goes live.

Gold, free exp, and credits works across all World of ____ games made by Wargaming.
