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

[adwol48]

Not strictly pc news but just got my beta invite for WOT Xbox 360 version. Any of you guys own a 360 could setup the clan on that side maybe. Gonna be interesting to see what graphical differences there are. Remember seeing ages ago now someone saying the 360 version seemed to have far better particle effects etc.

 

[Nuttah]

Both players which I can see have 1350ish overall efficiencies, thus proving my point. Show me someone with a 44% winrate with the same number of Ace Tankers as someone with 56% win rate.

You have to play well to get an Ace Tanker, especially several.

Trust me chipps, this is not going to work out in your favour as I'll always argue when I'm right, which I am! Maybe we'll have to agree to disagree.

Hmm... I've joined this late, and I don't know exactly what's being discussed - however, there is an opportunity to argue against Link which I can't turn down....

So, Link, you're wrong.

I assume we're talking about Ace Tanker in some way determining if someone is any good or not. It doesn't. Any old clown can have an awesome game here and there, and simply, that's all you need to get Ace Tanker.

I have a 360 I will have to check this out, might have a use for my Xbox afterall. Pity I can't use folding at home on it

Not to defend Link, but I think his argument wasn't about individual ace tankers...more that someone who has Ace tanker on 50% of his tanks is probably a better player than someone who has Ace tanker on 10% of their tanks or less.

Exactly, but "not to defend Link" =

And Nuttah arguing with me? I don't think you really believe your own argument, just arguing because it is me, however I will entertain your argument. You are wrong, because the point I am making is that players with more Ace Tankers are usually the better players.

and here is your 44% player with more ace tankers than either of us -

http://worldoftanks.eu/community/acc...668-Jadeperle/]

but wait a minute, your a 56% win rate player and i'm a 59% win rate player and both of us are much better players than him with almost triple his WN6 rating so how can that be ???

There will always be exceptions to every rule, but for the most part, the majority of 44% players will not have more Ace Tankers then the majority of 56% players.

Just had my first few games, and really enjoyed it, but my slow chinese tank is too slow.
I need to read up a bit on strategy then I will be ok, etc etc.

Just joined the clan, same name here as there.

try to be patient and cautious.
don't go running around like a headless chicken like everyone else
keep checking the minimap for map awareness
download XVM mod so you get the white dots on the map showing where enemy tanks were last spotted.

once you get a few tiers up and people start using heavy tanks etc go on youtube or look on the world of tanks forum for the guides showing where the weak spots are on tanks

the very fact that one of those 44% win ratio, 500 wn6 players has 30 ace tankers and over 40 first class badges shows just how little value they actually have and if i actually looked hard rather than just having a quick look at work with no access to the game i can assure you i could find loads of them with quite a few ace tankers.

to me they hold about the same value as a top gun, sniper or confederate medal as it only takes 1 game to get them.

Exactly, they are a reward for an achievement in a single match. They do what they say on the tin

 

[RichardH754]

Xbox version is not bad, textures look shocking, but the smoke effects and stuff look good!

 

[Rojin]

Ah I've got a 360 invite too! Shame I've got to have an early night as I'm on the road at 05:30

It's a whole new engine on the the 360 apparently.

 

[SkodaMart]

Beat my Hellcat record! Only 6 kills and TopGun this time, but the Patrol Duty medal made up for it!

which is if you check my posts numbered 4126, 4134 and 4139 is what i have been saying all along but people are arguing with

they don't have anything to do with how good you actually are in any given tank and something based on average xp / efficiency / damage or anything else over the course of all your games in the tank would be much more meaningful.

Which are what the stats are for?

Link was merely stating that players with lots of these badges are likely to also be decent players, as decent players will be scoring at the levels needed to get them. Of course anyone can get one by having a lucky round (like me for example! ), but as a generalisation you'll find decent players have more of these than a crap player. The ratio of badges to matches played must also be considered of course. They have as much value as any of the badges in the game which are rewards for performance in a match.

This is how you school a team!

I think Panther was asleep (He actually disconnected)

i try my best to get into this game but the same scenario happens, i play a game get killed rage quit then want to play a week later.

any tips on starting out fresh guys?

 

[Anox]

ugh horrible week, I havent touched my tiger and the Churchill was a massive fish flapping slowly around the maps and getting made all holey while getting paltry xp...

Keep trying and look at why you are dying so much, thats the way I learned to like, other than grinding which is expected.

 

[varkanoid]

follow a couple of other tanks and provide support.
If you go it alone you will probably encountered experienced players who will just splat you.

Look for the best routes or find favourite spots to go for on the maps.

Ignore the idiots who dont know the difference between a "camper" and providing defense.

 

[Scotspaul]

Any idea how i got this reward for loosing a match?
