****** Official World of Tanks OcUK Clan ******

Have you fired? Enemy arty can track your tracer.
When I play arty, the first thing I do is aim at the start point of the opposition, placing my reticule where I think the enemy arty will move to. I look out for trees, fences, etc getting knocked down and their tracers. Most of my arty kills are achieved this way

No couple of times I had not fired, and I also usually do not stay in the spots where the enemy might see arty to reduce chance kills.

Thing is I never get to see who shot me. So if it were an arty lucky shot I would see them after getting killed.

I know you have played many more games than me, but i am often killed, and never get to see who shot me.
the ones i do see, are usually in my field of vision.
 
If the enemy is not spotted when they kill you, you don't get the killcam.

then all I can think of is its arty lucky shots as no way in first 20 seconds or so can tanks get to me on the maps.

However why is it only in the Grille, I have other arty tanks but they do not explode in first minute.

Coincidence?
 
it does seem strange,
normally when you die, even if you dont see the tank that killed you, it normally says at the bottom centre of the screen who killed you, or at the very end, when the battle stats pop up.
have you had a look on the wot forum to see if anyone else has seen this?
 

That video is stupid. He first says the T62-a has low armor, especially vs the T-54 but it was balanced by giving it better turret armor. Then when its ingame, he says its got excellent armor.

Once again regarding the batchat, if you played it pre 7.5 and post 7.5 you would see the difference. I dont really care if the stats are the same or some video says it didnt change, it did. Theres lots of people who say the same thing on the official forums.

Edit: infact watch this video from dellboy he posted awhile back.

I can clearly see that in the video, the batt is far more agile. If you still dont believe me, after work tomorrow I will dig out some 7.4 replays of my bat and similiar ones in 7.5

Maybe they did something which can only be spotted by players who had it fully upgraded (I only played stock and a model with better tracks before the 7.5 and even at stock it felt great!) before the patch. Anyway, I still really like it :)
 
RE the batchat - It packs more of a punch since the patch thats for sure and to be honest, I've not noticed a drastic loss of speed/agility in its performance and this is coming from someone who used to love the Batchat then they nerfed it and I lost interest but since the patch like it again.

Didn't they do something like that last year? I know I've got some rations, cola, etc that I can't figure out how to sell.

Hopefully I'll have internet access at home before the 23rd so I can actually use the code. Would be handy to have the premium access for the end of this week but I can't see it happening.

You can sell them on the same page as med kits/repair kits etc
 
Hmm, game has gone to crap a bit since last update. Huge amounts of arty stacking, too many tier 10s, heaps more penetration no damage hits, ridiculous penetrations from tier 8 arties that do less than 50 damage and a seemingly inordinate amount of retards playing at the moment.

Yep does seem the way. :(
