I Had A Great WoT Game Today

For the first time ever in a Random Battle, I experienced active cooperation from a teammate!

With help from a little Luchs, we destroyed a T-34 and KV-1 together. He would cause a distraction by literally running in circles around them, while I unloaded shot after shot into the enemy. We ended up securing the entire right flank on Murovanka by ourselves. Hehe.

I'm amazed that happened because a) WoT players generally aren't particularly nice and 2) I'm horrible at WoT.

I've pretty much given up on World of Tanks, switched to War Thunder. That said, I'm actually really good in WoT, but WT is more fun for whatever reason. Maybe I'll give it a shot again someday.

I only have a 45% win rate and "very bad efficiency" according to the WoT noob meter. xD

However, I am relatively ok with fast, light tanks, especially if they have sizeable guns. Such as the T67, with which I have a win rate of over 50%.

that's where I'm at on pc. I like rapid accurate firing tanks, so British and German for me, some American. My highest tier on pc is my tier V Panzer IV.

Xbox though I'm at about 53% win rate. I will say most of my losses come from bad teams, I'm usually doing quite well, but the rest of my team accomplished nothing.

I have both WoT and WT - I enjoy playing tanks on WoT more than WT because every time I try a tank battle on WT, my FPS takes a dive. My dad's poor PC wasn't meant for gaming like that. However, I'm fine with flying on WT - I'm pretty good at Ground Strike because I literally have no fear of the ground. I've forgotten how many times I've accidentally kamikazed my target, or broke off my propeller xD

I actually had another really good game today, where I destroyed 5 tanks with my T67. I could've gotten Top Gun on an enemy T-25, had I not been spotted by an enemy Archer tank destroyer which was hidden far too well. He picked me off in open ground and I was finished.

Still, when you have good games wot is really fun.

Haven't bothered with PC WOT yet. just soaking time and money into xbix360 WOT.

Teamwork doesn't start to happen until tier 6-7, by then most people have figured out how to actually use the vehicle they are driving properly.

The Tier 9-10 guys are a cranky bunch of old guys like me, although i keep my complaints to myself.

Now, on WoT severs you usually get trolls and teamkillers, but have you ever gotten a neo-nazi?

So, i was doing a game in a t34-85, and someone on my team says," all hail the aryan race!". So I'm type in chat,"shut up neo nazi" and he replies," Hitler never did anything wrong". This causes an outrage by the rest of the players and eventually he shuts up. ironically, he was in a t20 USA medium.

My kid was bragging about taking out a bunch of guys in a tier 8 match with a tier 5 tank. He loves this game...

Fortunately(?) no. I'm on the SEA server, so nothing radical comes this way very often.

I might not be the best WoT player (in fact I am hopeless), but there are times where even I know that the game is going to play out horribly. Like those games when everybody goes to cover one flank and leaves just two tanks (a KV-1S and T-34 i.e. me) to defend the other flank, which was being spearheaded by a KV-1S, KV-1 and M6. Me in my little T-34 never stood a chance. The guy in the KV-1S told me to pull back - I just responded by saying "too late" and then I immediately died xD
