Wargaming have released a beta version of their Android app, it's available from

http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index....s-assistant-v15-beta-test-invitation-android/

Its a lot slicker than the current version, and seems to work without issue. If you have the current app I recommend updating

Thanks for accepting me to the clan. Played a couple of matches yesturday afternoon when I got home and had the usual "if you send us 1k gold you will finish the trial period"

woohoo more arty in the game

, i can hear Link groaning from here

at least the silly nuisance that is the T-50-2 is finally getting removed so people can't drive into the middle of the numpty's still in base at the start of the game and cause chaos while they try to hit it on the move without leading the target until a decent player hundreds of meters away takes it out for them (i have seen this happen so many times on Prokhorovka it isn't even funny any more

, but it is funny when you do it to the enemy

)

I'm kinda half tempted by the E-25 premium tank. Seems to be one of those tanks that most will hate / suck at it but a few will really enjoy it.

I'm gonna miss my T50-2, however I do admit it was a bit ridiculous...

However, why nerf the T50, not like it was overpowered in any way. It would be ok if they also dropped it's MM, but no...

That 2 tanks I'll be selling, still the crews will be useful.

With regards to more arty = :mad:

At least it will be British...

chipps101 · 24 Jul 2013 at 14:11

i actually quite liked the MT-25 on the test server so i'll give it some time before i decide if it gets sold or not.

and Pup, noooooooooooooooooo the E-25 is horribad

From the games I've played today, Tier 8 Matchmaking seems a lot better. I wonder if that is what this was from the patch notes:

Fixed several issues with the match making system, which appeared after the release of the update 8.6

How so and what was the issue? Can't say I've noticed anything myself, but if you explain then it may ring some bells.

It felt like after the patch you would get a lot more t9 / t10 games as a t8 tank. From all the games I've played today I have had a lot more T8 max. Could just me MM being random but who knows.

I ended up buying the E-25. Just had my first game and OMG is it fun

Rof is insane and I dont even have BIA or rammer yet. Its very fast as well.

wait until you play a hilly map and cant shoot at something because a small undulation is blocking your shots as you are to short to shoot over them

Haha there is that problem. Camo seems very good in it. Its quite fun tracking a heavy at 200 - 300m, remaining hidden and just grinding it down

I think it can work very well as a passive scout also, due to the speed and its camo rating + view range.

Oh right? Can't say I really noticed myself being shoved into too many tier 10 battles, but maybe I was lucky. Well...I guess the Caernarvon was put in more tier 10s then the others and I've been playing that more than other tier 8s, but I thought it was just WG showing their dislike for British tanks...

Did they fix the retardness of a 3 man platoon in teir 5s being the only tier 5s in a game with 27 teir 7s

Yeah I noticed this issue a lot more than the tier 8 problem (which I'm not denying existed).

The t8 mm issue wasn't like you had t9 / 10 max every game, but definitely more than before. At least Thomas has noticed it.

I'm not disputing it mate, purely stated that I hadn't really noticed it. Doesn't mean I hadn't experienced it.

chipps101 · 24 Jul 2013 at 18:35

probably not gonna be ingame for a few days as i'm gonna be busy this week

nadfink · 24 Jul 2013 at 22:35

Hey guys, I've just applied to the Clan - hope i'm accepted.

Just about racked up 5k battles so would be great to start playing with good players & as a team! It's fair to say that on the pub servers, there are more facepalm moments in this game than I ever expected there to be!
