On another note the reworked Severogorsk map is completely ruined now, how Wargaming managed to take an average map and destroy it while supposedly making it better is beyond me. Its now completely useless for light tanks or sniper tanks and its just another corridor brawler map where you poke and shoot. WHY!?

I don't feel the same. With the old hills it was pretty much the same thing every time, never mind what tank you were in, now it feels more diverse. In my light tanks I've been flanking opponents while they were busy fighting other tanks on my side.
 
Surely your statement of the old map being the same thing every time applies even more so to the reworked map which has just created corridors on every flank now?

You cant shoot from flank to flank anymore because corridors. You cant scout from the hill anymore as it doesnt exist, because corridors. Where is the added diversity in restricting choices?
 
Ahwell, I thought the random crashes and kernel driver problems had stopped but it seems to happen every other game now :(

Still struggling through and enjoying it though, bought a days Premium and the difference in cash and XP return is soooo welcome *pat's his shiny Matilda* :p

But where was the diversity of being on one side and being shot from the other hill? Wherever you were? There are plenty of places you can drive to, allowing you to flank around behind enemy tanks, at the very least, no less than there was before.
 
Quick question to you people more in the know, I know it has been asked a lot in the WOT forums but which one T62A or obj140?

I am tempted to get the obj140 first as I have read that the lines may get split at some point(This is coming from the T54). I have the 121 already if that makes a difference!!

If you have neither then I'd suggest the Object 140. It has a higher top speed and although the frontal hull armour doesn't look any better on paper the better sloping allows for more hull bounces than the T62A.

The Object 140 is basically the middle for everything of the three Russian tier 10 mediums, with the Object 430 having the better armour and a lower profile (and slowest firing gun) and the T62A having a better capability to circle enemy tanks and a moderately better gun in all stats than the other two. The fire rate of both the T62A and Object 140 are the same.

I have all three Russian meds and the Object 140 is my favourite.

Cheers for that, 140 it is then :)
 
FSCKING fuming.

on a great T4 game in the Marder 38t. Endgame me and 3 arty vs 3 arty.

I was top tier, 100% health with binos anc camo net so great view range.

I know is is only a game but being beaten by idiot team mates is bad enough without the game crashing as well.

I know there is a minipatch coming out on friday but 9.0 should never have been released in this state.

Just about to shoot one of the arty and BOOM - crash.

Tried to get back in and game just crashed everytime the game tried to reload.

End result was a loss,

Update:

Next game made up for it. High caliber, Top gun, Master Gunner, 1st class mastery and 1550 damage in a T4. 2720 xp (x2)

Glad about the later game making up for it.

There is a hotfix coming apparently on Friday which will fix most of the crash issues, and some of the fps issues people are having. Fingers crossed.
 
Yeah I'm not bothering with the game too much until the fix is out. Why does it only ever crash when you're winning a round?! More premium days wasted.

I agree, I think they should change the way that Premium Days works.

They should deduct a days premium whenever you login, there are times I'm unable to get on and play for a period due to other commitments. Just a thought, although it'll never happen.

Great idea, but as you say it will never happen. Their business depends on people spending gold, the chances of them changing anything to slow that down is small.

Having said that if you had asked my if they would ever make gold ammo available for silver I would have said never.
 
Grrr booted to desktop several times tonight despite not having the issue at all on Monday.

Edit: since posting that it hasn't happened again.

Well last night was a nightmare, I'm trying to get the Fire and Water monthly mission as it's all I have left to get the Extra Mile mission and the free T2 Light, however my teams were constantly melting away or leaving me up poop creek.

I've lost count of the number of times I'm one of the last tanks alive or I see a friendly TD setup on a hill behind me, carefully scout in my tier IV light, spot a tier VIII heavy, get behind cover only for the TD to have disappeared leaving me to "deal with" the the problem ("deal with" usually means run away and get one shotted or circle the heavy, not be able to pen it and then get one shotted by his backup).

Sigh! at least I only have to get the Fire and Water mission 25 more times now. I'm not really a light tank person so no idea why I'm putting myself through this just to win another light tank but I have to do it now I'm so close lol :)
