gaming World of Tanks

[AngelofDeath 259]

Haha yeah that is how it is in most clans XD. My clan is nearly full and yet you don't see more than....i'd say 15 on at a time. Though that isn't bad for a clan that isn't in high competition with the bigger clans.

[AcePony 39]

Oh yeah. My clan has about 60-70 people, but only 3-10 are on Ventrilo at the same time. We've got strong players, but we are nowhere as near good as ANVIL and FORGE. Those guys are GOOOODDDDD. Drop-dead good.

Anyhow, I'm going to be on vacation for a week without internet. Don't worry about me.

[AngelofDeath 259]

Haha ANVIL and FORGE are not the only good clans out there. I came from a very popular clan but got sick of the Clan Wars drama. Clans are nothing if they don't have the "good" players and the "scrubs" XD. Anywho enjoy your vacation. I'm sure you won't miss anything in tanks lol.

Since it doesn't require a huge amount of effort or attention on my part, I've gone ahead and begun to upload clean footage of decent matches in certain tanks to YouTube.  I've only gotten two videos up thus far, as the only matches I will upload are ones I deem half-decent or superior.  I also include the matches' results at the end of each video to give insight as to how my performance rewarded me.

 

Here are the links to the first two videos I've shared thus far:

On another note, Scoots and Spoon shall at last be joining the ranks of the panzergruppe!  I foresee only great things to come!

[AcePony 39]

That's nice. But a low tier for me.

What do you use to record? Fraps is laggy as hell when I use it, even though I usually get about 30-60fps.

[Prince Midnight 817]

i kinda wish i was being more active in WoT but things keep coming up, i sold all the tanks ive bought, dont ask me why, it happened awhile back XP, i just felt i wasnt going to be touching WoT for a long time.

[AcePony 39]

Aw hell, I know. I have a buddy who's doing spreadsheets every month for my clan to see how we each improve in global ranking. Mine fluctuates like hell because I get busy with other things and take breaks in WoT. I've been getting my stats up really well and over the vacation, after dropping to 47.6% win, I've bumped that up to 48.72%. Total of about 4.5k battles, been getting my efficiency much higher. I never sold my tanks though.

[AngelofDeath 259]

That's pretty good going from 47% to 48%. No matter how hard I try I can't get my win rate to 54%. I'm maintaining a steady 200 battles needed to get that 54% and it's irritating XD. Though I have lost interest in tanks a little too because I'm running out of tanks to grind out and those grinds I do have are so massive that I just don't want to do them.

[AcePony 39]

Agreed, Beau. I recently purchased back my stuggy, and I must admit, it's a fun tank. I noticed when I try to get my stats better they drop, and when I try to play FOR FUN, they get better.

[AngelofDeath 259]

Yeah I agree fully. I am a fully serious player in this game. I've like made it my job and when I try to have fun with it my stats slowly drop like a rock. When I play serious then my stats slowly go up or stay about the same. What's your ingame name Ace?? Maybe we can platoon sometime seeing as since I don't platoon much XD.

[AcePony 39]

Hmmm, hahaha. Yeah, I'm a serious gamer who tries to game for fun.

In-game name is: Gribbiy

I roll tier 8s and many scouts, occasionally a TD/Arty. Mostly the latter, though.

[AngelofDeath 259]

My in-game is: BeauDozer42

I roll mainly tier 8's and 10s XD. I'm finding it really boring to play with the lower tiers when so many bad players troll the lower tiers. 

[Prince Midnight 817]

well i managed to buy back most of my tanks including my Tiger I and my IS3, and in all honestyi really missed them immensely, espically my IS

[AcePony 39]

Let me just say this now; that IS-3 is a boss. I liked the IS because the tiering was better, but the IS-3 BL-9 122 and the low profile of it and that speed.... just simply amazing. Russian devs are so biased!

 

My in-game is: BeauDozer42

I roll mainly tier 8's and 10s XD. I'm finding it really boring to play with the lower tiers when so many bad players troll the lower tiers. 

Well, that's why I only play either a) really early in the morning, pre 0500, or really late at night, past 2300.

Why? Because those schoolkids who stole daddy's credit card are rolling around not knowing what to do and how to play the game. Hell, they don't even have any tactical knowledge, which is why they're still in school! Angles, bro, angles.

Some times the lower tiers are better... it's really hard to tell. I can't really explain it.

Victory!
Battle: Serene Coast Friday, January 04, 2013 6:23:35 AM
Vehicle: ELC AMX
Experience received: 2,517 (x3 for the first victory each day)
Credits received: 23,021

Early morning scouting. For the win, dealt 1.4k damage, 3 kills, 100% hit ratio, 2k efficiency. Now I'm done for the day. XD

[AngelofDeath 259]

Grr all you people have the 2 medals i'd like to have. "Cool-Headed" and "Lucky". I don't think i'll ever get those 2 medals.    But I am only 2 tanks away from finally getting my "Master Tanks" ribbon thing. Though if I do get it, i'll only lose it again because of the new Chinese tanks in 8.3.  <_<

[Prince Midnight 817]

last night, i entered a training match, 2 tier V's (KV-1 with a U-11 122mm, and a 76mm weilding T1 heavy) and a tier 1 (british) and they all said they could beat any tank i have so, being the troll i am, i selected my IS-3 with the D25-T 122mm, and wiped the floor with them XD

[AcePony 39]

Those two medals I recieved, I believe. I looked at them and said, "What the hell, what is this groovy shit," and then looked; ahh, that's me. I deserved it. xD

[AngelofDeath 259]

My JagdE100 is craving some blood.   I need to let it loose within' the next couple of days and let it claim some poor souls lives. Doing 1k damage per shell is awesome when it doesn't miss or bounce.

[AcePony 39]

Oh yeah. That JgPzE100 is like a hetzer on steroids and crack. It's simply amazing, capable of twoshotting or almost oneshotting andthing its' tier and below. It is the reason  I'm giving my hetzer line another chance starting from the StuGIII

[AngelofDeath 259]

Yeah I love when I do half of someones health in damage. It just puts a big, BIG smile on my face. It's actually not as bad as everyone complains about. Although I don't see why everyone bitches about the German tanks not being up to par. I can make any German tank work against an enemy without a second thought.

[Prince Midnight 817]

i used to be into TD's but all that sitting, and waiting, i just dont have the patience anymore XP i prefer my line breaking heavies and skirt around and hit from behind medeums.

[AngelofDeath 259]

Haha I know what you mean. I don't use my TD's correctly in most situations XD. I usually run front line with the mediums and heavy tanks. I know for a fact it's not the smartest thing to do what my team usually wins when I run front line with the meds and heavy's. No matter how slow the tank I still run it front line XD.

[Jadefire 2,798]

And I prefer my pot shot taking while everybrony else is doing all the heavy lifting Artillery. x3

 

Always good fun to sit back and ruin someone's day from safe distance, I think. x3

[Prince Midnight 817]

i cant do it.....ive tried to have fun with this game again, but i end up getting more pissed off than anything, im just not cut out for video games XP

[AngelofDeath 259]

WoT needs a very high anger management rating. I've been playing since beta so I can generally ignore the chat and map pings with ease. Though there are some days where I can't stand anything anyone does or says. That's why i'm trying to platoon alot more than I used too because it helps me keep my anger down and I can just screw around during the game and be serious and rant at the same time. XD
