Multi The World Of Tanks thread

Yeah I'm in the same boat.

Just a "tester training map" where you could drive any tank and blow a hole in some buildings or stationery tanks.

Even if it was at a silver cost.

 

Why don't you guys use the test server? 10x XP and credits so grinding a tier 5 on their would take very little time.

 

Cool, how does that work then, how do we connect to it?

 

I thought the test server had been shut down now that 6.7 is on the live server.

 

They are running 6.7_test2 (edit:at least something like that name wise) which has a few tweaks.

 

It's me again! Does anyone have any tips for the T34-85? I'm having a lot of trouble with it against things like the lesser VK's who are able to two shot me. Its becoming embarrassing to play this tank! Any thoughts?

 

First tip Cellular Peptide, don't give up! The T-34-85 is awesome, especially once you've got the 100mm gun. It's not particularly accurate, and has a very low ROF, but has awesome penetration and damage for its tier.

My main suggestion is that from the T-34-85 you need to be aggressive. You're generally smaller (physically) than US and German mediums so you can afford to push forward. Try playing together with other Russian mediums as a wolfpack and you'll be far more effective.

 

I have the sherman m4 and was trying to get it to elite. Then they released the m4a3e2 do I have to research that as well? Grrr

 

Finally bought my E-75... First battle?

 

Very nice looking mods. May i ask where they came from?

 

OMG lol I suspect that you lost that one xD

E-75 is a great tank when it is fully upgraded. When stock, it is horible! And for the love of god, dont forget to research the last engine. It makes the tank a whole new being!

 

That battle did not end well - 12-4 or something, with a single E50 completely owning me by diving in and out of cover, blasting me with his fancy gun.

It's not great at the moment, no... I'm definitely researching the engine, 500hp extra is a good dollop, it's just raking up 50kXP to get there. Would you go for engine first or turret+gun first?

 

LOL, thanks for sharing that p0Pe, that's very appropriate for many WoT players.

 

I've only noticed annoying/immature chat stufff/ping spammers every 10 match or so and even then its only minor.

 

You obviously don't run into me that often then lol

 

LOL, +rep for that, it made me laugh out loud.

 

I got a little game, the garage brag game.

What do you have in your garage, and how much is it worth?

How to play -
1. post a screenshot of your garage where we can see the different tanks. Make your biggest tanks "primary" so that they will be to the left.
2. go into "store" and check prices for each tank and add it together. Neglect upgrades on the tank - gun, etc.
3. (for those who want to) post what equip you have on the different tanks and add that into the equation.
4. post the total value of your garage.

I can start with mine:

Sorry for late reply been away in the USA.

You can find mods in the thread below.
General Creativity Thread

Colour Blind Mod (v1.5)

I use this one with the 50% map increase mod together, brilliant for colour blind arty fans.
Colour Blind Mod v101



How to add the map mod to the colour blind mod.
If you are using JSGME I have found a neat little way of creating mods for each level of mini-map size with the colour blind mod.
Firstly create a folder called colour-blind in your MOD folder.
Extract or copy the colour blind res into that folder.
This is now a mod that can be enabled by moving it to the right panel in JSGME.
Copy the colour-blind folder into your MOD folder to create a second colour-blind-copy and rename it to colour-blind-75% (or whatever size map you want)
Then copy the battle.swf file from the Minimap 75% folder (that you downloaded from above)
Paste this directly into the colour-blind-75%/res/gui/flash folder, you will have to overwrite the one already in it.
This way you can set up mod folders for each size if you want to try them all and they are easily enabled and disabled from the JSGME.

Edit: forgot to add that it is best to use JSGME a mod enabler to handle mods.

Also remember to make a back up copy of your MOD folder so that after patching to a new game version you can just copy and paste the old contents back into the MOD folder in the game folder.
