I missed out a lot of missions last week so playing catch up, but honestly it's been a while since I've had such a bad consecutive run. Everything is so one sided, from losses to wins.
59-16 is definitely my cursed tank, 10 loss streak on Monday and 6 so far today trying to get the daily.

One of the slowest tanks in the game really.
Also you need to pick your corners. A left hand corner sucks but a right hand corner, everyone dies because you're showing over 300mm armour and a 4000dpm gun with a good gun arc.
The badger is a downgrade in many ways from a tortoise. Sure you will hear whinging that it has around 350mm on the upper sections but so what, an IS7 is far tougher than that.
It gets 100hp more than a tortoise, a narrower gun arc, worse HE protection (its complicated) and trades the cupola weakness in for a much larger lower plate weakness. All that by moving one tier up.
DPM is basically the same, badger gets more standard pen and a little extra overmatch to beat 40mm plate but it has less pen on premium shells than a tortoise and a slower ROF so I'm pretty sure it's too slow to permatrack someone.

I haven't used it yet either. I will give it a bash soon though.
Ive never even taken the Badger out, only the Deathstar.
Hah I'm not alone.
Badger is in my garage not a single battle on it. It's hardly being spammed by others either. Turns out apart from the party trick of thick armour its still just another TD that has to point its hull at an enemy along with a frontal weakspot.
T95 is still the best armoured TD out there. It's so flat with thicker armour than a badger and such crappy small weakspots. Utterly garbage target.
Come to that I've not played the 183 for a very long time, I stopped using it in favour of the more mobile FV4005 which is in fact an excellent target.

1 win in 7 for me this morning.....on the back of 2 weeks of solid 55-60% Win rate days.
Another x3 XP weekend and games where there are more bots than real players.
The MM also thinks it fair to place 5 or 6 green or above players versus 2....so many times it just is so obvious what needs fixing...and it isn't buffing the Russian Med line !!

I've ran sub 50% WR since last Saturday, I honestly don't know what to do as I don't seem to be able to do no right. WN8 is holding little under what I normally get so I don't think I've drastically changed my play style or anything
Absolutely no point in playing this game anymore...it is absolutely pathetic
I have to agree, I think it's pure addiction and fact that few of us are at a point where we hope it gets better because of time and money we out into this.
End of the day it's a game and I'm just not having fun anymore. No real fixes are on a horizon, fundamentals are just getting worse and worse and all they are planning are sugar coating patches. That and the company are frankly pure scum.

Nicely summed up..I tend to agree with the addiction point too, it is an irrational behavior...keep going back to something which makes you unhappy / angry, longing for the limited times when you enjoy a round or two.
I think the issue is we all know this was and could well be a great game. The trouble is it's ruined by moronic players and devs who are just far too greedy. Instead of focussing on quality of life for players they're just churning out crap new content that you need to buy to stay ahead of the curve.
On top of that they can't hide their Russian bias. It's like they have full blown small **** syndrome.
