Without premium it takes forever to farm xp yeah. Especially for the high tiers.
I payed 1 month of premium (2500) gold. To aim for a few high tier tanks and bunch of few mediums. Mainly TD. I have my premium ended in 3 days and i will not be renewing.
Apparently gold will be sharable within clans during clan war wins i think so ppl could possibly get premium accounts that way.
Clan wars is due this month and the big patch (duno bout clan wars with it) is dues tuesday coming.

Yeah thats what i'm finding...
Tier 2-3 i was waiting on spare cash to get my T4 SPG. Now i've got the 147k cash but i'm still 4k exp short of the tank. Only gonna get worse when I'm getting lumped with higher tier enemies with the same damn gun i've been using since tier 2 until i get enough exp for the new 1 on the Grille.

Just had a belta of a game with a SU85B. 
Top Gun and Sniper awards and 7 kills.
I would have survived but damn slope limited my aim a few times so had to roll down bank a bit more giving time to the arty to fire. But we shot each other and killed each other lol.

the T23 explodes when seen by big stuff also as it only has 76mm front armor (on a tier 8 tank)
you just have to try and not be seen
Hey that worked quite well earlier. Got put against some stupidly high tier enemies and basically hid in a bush at the end as the last survivor.
Best part was taking 3 shots at an Object tank (either T9 or T10 tank destroyer) and dealing 15% damage to it, last shot hit the ground or would've destroyed it (it had 19% when i started), then noticing it was coming in my direction. Headed into town and it drove past me. Turned around and blew it up with a T3 artillery

SkeeterUK*(22:51:00)*little tip if u aint had any other countrys tanks get the free one and you will get 5 consumables which u can flog for 50k
SkeeterUK*(22:51:39)*just noticed since being russian side i had 5 consumables, i just bought the free usa tank and had 5 off them too hehe, so made 100k just now by selling them 10 items from russian and usa sides

I'll give it another look tomorrow.
Finally got my Grille. First fight, i drive down to the left side VERY slowly because its default engine sucks. I finally get there just in time to see an IS-3 whizzing down the middle by the trains. I can't even turn around fast enough to get a shot off and get blown to pieces...

This looks uber crazy imo but does look like a lot of fun to do.
You reckon its real or fake vid tho?
Edit - Bah it was a april 1st joke apparently (should read more comments next time lol)

Well if anyone had custom skins, some tanks might need reapplying as i did with my ferdy.
The take the hill in centre map is redone and looks good but can throw you off a bit cos of the differences.
Tab menu when in battle is different. Looks nice but lots of empty space used for some bits.
Alt in battle can show more stuff like tier of tank and somit else icon i think (enabled through options).
Mini map is different higher res i think. Icons on it now show what class of tanks instead of only red dots now so easier to find the pesky arty if a lot of tanks are near each other. Platoon members are shown as gold icons on mini map.
The no shaking feature (through options) is a real treat. Now i can keep my aim on a part of the tank when in my ferdy without it bobbing about like crazy every time i fire. This is a bit of a cheat i guess but is a welcomed cheat for snipers. Well imo anyhow. Tbh i would have been happy with just a little jud instead of how it used to be a crazy bob but ah well.
The alt key displaying stuff, the text is huge and can look a right mess when a lot of tanks are close by each other i.e start of battle lookin at ur team for instance. The mini map icons are bit larger which im not totally sure im happy with imo. Tank icons above the tanks are large now which imo are too large when your close. Should be scaled based on distance imo.
Posted this over at the wot forums incase anyone wants to discuss there.

Oh and there is a bit of a lag issue since patch. All games (4-5) since i had patched up and got on the server were very laggy (packet loss probably) since patch. And all clan members noticed it too that were on and the 2 that were in platoon with me. I am putting it down to stress on the server cos of the large patch and everyone getting it now so hopefully in a day or two the lag will settle down a bit.
Oh and overlord has posted info about the next patch already 0.6.5

Yeah patch seems good so far, only had a few battles though because lag spikes are absolutely killing me right now.
Had it before the patch over the last fews days but its worse today (maybe because of people updating though there are still 8k less people on than when I tried to play yesterday). Looking at the forums it seems to have be effecting people randomly over europe.
Pz3/4 is nippier than ever, though its not bounced a single shot so far, but with the lag I've been having its been hard to try it out properly. (still hope its frontal armour gets put up to 70mm the drop of 20 to 60 seems a bit drastic.

Does CAPS LOCK + 0 still turn on the blue server crosshair?
I've never even heard of that, what does it do?
Oh and the lag issues people have been having is apparently partially due to a cable route in Germany being severed due to construction work on Monday and the rerouteing being overloaded. Fingers crossed that its fixed soon.
I say partially as some peoples issues have been going on for more than the last few days.
