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

This bit would be a start.

Okay off top of my head

1. Gold ammo available for silver
2. MM that balances teams 9% / 91%
3. Allowing players to suicide cos they think they are not going to win
4. Being called a camper when you are defending the base
5. Not being supported when pushing forward, team mates hang back when you know full well if they joined the push you would break through
6. teams leaving a flank or part of the map wide open leaving just you to take on the enemy
7. Lemming trains
8. Muppets

9. #5617 - I am a "tomato player" been on red 46% for about a year now it never moves. Am I that consistently bad or just consistent enough to maintain that level of crapness
10. Team mates who have a go at you when you are capping at level points saying you should kill all, then lose because you dont kill all
11. Being bottom tank 9 games in a row.

I dont think I am a good player just pretty average (but I dont care I just did like playing the game) and I dont go above T8 as I know my limits.

I've not played since December and quite frankly I have enjoyed the break. So if I play it again tonight will my experience be good or bad Ie #5605

An issue for armoured tanks and a solution for facing skill-free heavy armour which is sitting and shelling with no fear of taking damage, I dislike premium high pen doing the same damage effectively being a pay to win option but it has its uses.

See psychic server point from earlier, I cant tell you what I'll have to eat for breakfast tomorrow, how is the server meant to know I'm not going to go full retard and trash my tank instead of being a pillar of reliability for the team. Also uninstall your mods and you won't see that lying rubbish that is the win chance predictor.

Completely impossible, the MM keeps track of how often you are bottom tier and this is the only time it deliberately steps in to change your personal MM if you are bottom tier for several games in a row. Aside from that, experience leads me to play tanks which are rarely useless if bottom tier.

The colour scheme for some game modifications basically labels everyone who isn't better than average as red.

You think it's terrible that hordes of players are red but all that means is the game modification is a crude and highly biased POS which focuses on dividing the highest ranks into smaller and smaller grades while the vast majority have a bucket of red paint sloshed over them.

Where do you think they all come from, they are the majority of the player base, they are the average player.

I am always going to be disgusted at the twisting of game perception and game play by the poison of 3rd party mods.

thats fine if you think that way everyone is entitled to their own opinion you just need to learn to respect others.

Not going to spend more time going through this other than 3. can easily be solved by removing the ability to die in water it just stops you going any deeper. 4. cant understand why you lumped this with psychic server its more to do with moron players, how do you know the chance predictor is lying rubbish, so players like #5423 are wrong also about their moaning ? etc etc etc

Anyway to save debate any mod/admin reads this can I be removed from the clan would rather give up a slot for someone who will be playing this more actively.

Cheers.

I'm not having a go, I'm disagreeing with what you said because my experience of playing the game from beta til now and about 25,000 games is different.

I grouped it together because it comes under the same heading in my mind of uncontrollable actions of players thus requiring psychic servers for it not to affect you, basically what can anyone do about it.

I can talk about what 5423 said but I don't think you'll take it well if I dismiss issues of being lowest tier, getting 1 hit, teams sucking, stock tank grinds as just part of the game.

If I sum up why I can still play WOT its because I accept that I will never win every encounter and will frequently die in a miserable way abandoned or nuked by RNG. I can accept that because I know I'm not being treated in a special way and that it will be the same for every other player. You get slapped down and you can also be king no matter how good you think you are.


The clan isn't big on activities, its more of a social group but if you want to leave you go to your profile on the website not the game and leave from there.
 
I'd like a team with a few T-34's in it please.

I'm bearing down on the cap, killed the art but my team full of Churchill's are still half a map away, so I end up dead at the hands of any lurking TD :(

All that, for a quarter of the XP a base camper got. They need to fix this.

Way too much colour makes your post a chore to read :o

1) Gold ammo should not be a solution to heavily armoured tanks. Can heavily armoured tanks have a solution for the speed of meds? No. If a med cant pen a heavily armoured tank it should flank it, that's why it is a med. That's it's job. Gold ammo has made meds lazy and forces people to camp.

2) No one knows if MM deliberately puts you bottom tier X amount of times. It's a myth that WG deny

3) People who are red will die first. Just watch. Yellow is 49%. The average is 49%, in theory if everyone was as good as everyone else we would all be 49% (leaving room for draws). People with over 3k battles 46% suck hard. i used to think the same as you, that it is mainly luck and there isn't much difference. Then I found as I played better my win rate went up. I installed XVM and what happened..? I saw the red players die first, camp by artillery, YOLO into TDs and basically be a hinderance to the team. Red players don't angle their tanks, they don't use their minimap (probably don't even make their minimap bigger from stock) and they don't even learn. Often they have 10k battles. How can someone do the same thing 10,000 times and still not learn??

IMO, the way to fix the game would be a certain skill requirement to progress to the next tier.
They have already introduced a performance rating system, it's not perfect but it'll do.
They should change it so tiers are locked until you reach a certain skill, then you can enter that tier and partake in those battles. At the moment there is no where for more skilled players to go, they reach tier 10 and these muppets are still plaguing the games.

Yes it is a game at the end of the day, but it is an online game.
I play single player games for fun
Multiplayer games are competitive, why play a competitive game and constantly lose? I play for fun, but if I kept losing it wouldn't be fun and I'd stop. This takes me back to the skill requirement to progress. People who enjoy losing can still play for fun, but can't wreck the whole game for everyone else.

You misread me.

The MM steps in if you, in your randomly organised games are put as bottom tier too often in a row.

There are no MM rules which deliberately try to put a player in a worse position.
 
Yep I lost 9 in a row Friday evening and every match but one I was in the bottom 25% It's very tiresome when you can see within the first minute your teams going to lose, very occasionally they'll listen but most seem to play by using the force without looking at the screen or god forbid the mini map.
Even in decent matches people just seem to throw it away, had a match a couple of days ago, we'd been losing but had pulled it back to 50/50 as they actually listened, I said sit tight and hit what lights up as they get bored and come to us. 30s later our only decent tank left a TigerII Yolo'd off through the town and died in seconds, when I asked him WTH he was doing I got back "this match has gone on for 7mins already I'm bored with the rubbish", we lost.
And last night we lost a T10 game because our scout who was doing a very good job poking one spot wasn't happy with the rate at which we where killing his spots(we was fighting on three fronts at this point) drove backwards into the river with a quick "good luck noobs" at the time we'd pulled it back from losing and was one kill ahead, after loosing his spotting we lost.
Soooo frustrating at the moment :(
 
How noob friendly is this game? I'm thinking of giving it a blast seeing as it's F2P.

If the number of noobs playing is anything to go by - very !

In reality, there are 3 sorts of players. Idiots that don't care, idiots that don't know they are idiots and people that learn and try to play well.

The OcUK clan is pretty friendly and there are a fair number of platoons that go on (where 2 or 3 of you are on the same side and fight together).

Play a few games and see how you get on. You can instantly be better than 70% of players by simply understanding about spotting and being spotted as well as actually looking at the minimap.

The section here is very helpful http://wiki.worldoftanks.com/Battle_Mechanics#Spotting_Range especially the bit about using bushes and firing.

If you join up to the clan, look out for me in game and I'll be happy to toon up.
 
If all the red players left the game then all the current green players would then be the new re3d players, then they would be banned then half the old purple players would be the new red players and they would be banned....

All that, for a quarter of the XP a base camper got. They need to fix this.

This is not something they need to fix. This is something that you need to fix.

Currently I am going to take a wild guess that you are one of the dreaded "red" players that we are talking about in some of the more recent posts at the moment. That's fine, but here are the reasons why:

1) You run into the enemy and die as quickly as possible as a scout. This is called a "Suicide scout" and as much as you may think you are useless, you aren't. If you stay alive you just need to drive around, dodging a bit and keep enemy players lit up for your team mates to shoot. If you do this well there is a good chance your team will win, and you get spotting XP for this. Due to the higher tiers of those you are spotting this works as a fantastic XP earner.

2) You go afk to "make some bread" after starting a game. Why start the ****ing game in the first place? Just don't do it, you're robbing your team of 1/15 players straight off. Doing this should lead to an hour cooldown, not allowing you to join other games.

3) You run off, without support and blame the team for not being there to support you or the way the game is made for you dying. Be patient and wait for backup if you can. If your team is running out of time you may have to go in alone, but edge in with caution, hopefully you'll at least buy those Churchills some time to get there.

All these points are from posts that you have posted. Please take my advice and don't continue to be the current kind of player you are. Unlike some idiots believe who have posted in this thread, YOU CAN AFFECT YOUR OWN WINRATE.
 
Just tried to join the OCUK clan, as per instructions in the opening post, and I'm getting this. :confused:

11. Being bottom tank 9 games in a row.


I dont think I am a good player just pretty average (but I dont care I just did like playing the game) and I dont go above T8 as I know my limits.

I've not played since December and quite frankly I have enjoyed the break. So if I play it again tonight will my experience be good or bad Ie #5605

1. Gold ammo ****es me off, either they use it when its not needed e.g. im driving a hellcat or t34 (russian) or something with **** all armour. Or they use it when im driving a tank with lots of armour and i know i can bounce their shots if i angle unless they aim at weakspots but no they load gold and put shot after shot through my ****ing gun mantlet. however do what either puppet or nuttah does (cant remember which) if they fire gold at you, you better ****ing fire it right back at them.

2-8+10. welcome to world of tanks, this is going to happen, you are going to get matches that are 28% win chance and so on. My approach to these match ups is to **** up as many enemy tanks as possible and do my job and hope this will be enough either to put my efficiency up or to drag the tomatoes with me. however i understand that this can be annoying when you get 6-7 kills and the other 14 members of your team cant get 8 kills between them (this is shown in my 2 kv-1 games i posted earlier) if the game is a 28%, change the way you play, play to 1v15 rather than 15v15 :D:D

9. they just don't know how to play the game, rather then calling them a noob tell them to go and research their tanks, its what i did, i got to tier 4-5 and started fighting kvs and kv-1S's and was like "wtf they are OP, how do i kill them?" started researching my tanks, spotting, angling, watching quickybaby's live stream and tank reviews on youtube. for example i have now started playing tier 7 properly so i am going and looking for weakspots on 1S3s, tiger IIs, IS8s, e75s...etc all the tanks i havent really faced before so i wont be like one of those ***** firing golf through gun mantlets.

11. DEAL. WITH. IT.
