I play off and on for about 3 month intervals. For the most part, I just make anime skins, and try absurd strategies with my friend that usually end up working for whatever reason. I'd post replays, but I don't have any recorded besides a recording test that nothing truly special happens in (save for a hilarious ram at the end).
Spoiler:
Been playing since beta, my favorite achievement so far was getting 9 kills as a M3 Lee in a tier 7 match.
Is there an upload that accepts pre-8.0 patch replays? Probably my favorite matches were in 7.5 or so.
Wargaming provides no support for replays of previous versions unfortunately. There's a workaround but it you need to also have the install files from the said replay version as well.
On a side note, I got myself an su 152 during the special and been having success loling away at people with just the ap rounds even. currently running 5/5/16 ap/heat/he and it's good fun. Slow as ass though.
I'm gonna re-buy the KV-3, since it's discounted, to grind through the Russian 2nd Heavy Tanks line.
I don't play this tank since it was tier VI, can anyone tell me if it's better now?
Yeah, sure, i can just open the game and try it, but i'm already grinding IS-3, Obj. 704 and Type 58 so i will buy KV-3 for a future use.
Well, I guess I was lucky. Bought a SU-122-44 at half its original price due to Sputnik Weekend special (plus I already had a Soviet crew with 1st skill at 95% floating around). It will be good practice after I finish with the British, since I wanted to try the "fast" Soviet TD line for a while.
Yeah I'm terribad at flying planes but man that tank combat looks great.
I haven't heard about arties, but it seems the fv304 and tier 10 arties are all I see anymore, and while I rarely get hit by them, it usually sucks as hard as getting ammo racked.
What do you think about the combined ground and air combat? As in needing to be in constant cover or hiding in forests from bombers and such. You can't just be lit for the planes, and pilots have to spot you using nothing but their eyes.
Oooh Rovencrone, that's with dynamics camera enabled that wot had during one of their beta tests few patches ago, but when it went live, it was toned down alot and weakened to the point where it almost feels like its the same old damn camera.

yeah i gotta say Warthunder looks great xD
Yeah, I recall wondering why a lot of older replay videos I saw on youtube had such bouncy recoils in sniper mode so I was confused. Even then the WT ground pyrotechnics are pretty stunning compared to the sparks we get on the tanks in WoT

Looks somewhat intresting. But since there arent any AA tanks or guns laying around it will be problematic to balance. But the video showed that if you hit a tree, your wing will fall off like it should and im intrested if you can shell the plane if your cannon allows it.
About FV304. FV304 is like SU 26. Its fast, mobile and does good damage. I compare it to my Hummel to pre nerf patch. Good Damage, good mobility. Can survive a brawl with T95 (i did that, Epic moment), scouts were manageable with it and the TD mode proved to be effective solution incase of trouble. The number of KV-1S I killed with that baby is high :) And i loved it.
Also, watch this.
Kinda explains the current situation at hand.
Also, KV-1S nerf wont come with 8,9 which kinda sucks. (Probably SerB started to cry like a baby in the meeting table)
The only scout tanks I've ever liked are the T71 and amx 12t to be honest. The rest of the tier 5 and 6 lights are pretty mediocre imho. I recall doing really well in the stuarts and the m7 though

I skipped the American Stuart (free XP and gold)
But AMx 12T could be better IF it accelerated better.
Im Driving T21 and i hate that scrapheap with passion.
VK 28.01 is another slow ass. The derpgun is good for detrack and arty hunt and thats it.
Im considering dropping the scout line entirely.
Since its more effort that reward and even if you get it, its by dumb luck or too small to make sense
So, yesterday evening I tried the SU-122-44. Cavemen teammates aside, it is a nice tank, though it lacks gun depression (funny how it's superior in everything but viewrange and speed to the regular SU-100M1 despite being premium).
...however, the regular TDs of the "fast" line (SU-100M1, SU-101 and SU-122-54) are almost universally loathed. I wonder, are they really so bad (as in, worse-than-M3 Lee-bad), or it's just the players who refuse to adapt to a stealthy, opportunistic role on the battlefield? Because that's those tanks' greatest asset.
