SO, the new update finally came with the new mode, Clan Wars. :rock:

Any chance to form the Subsim WoT clan?

Clan wars isn't new, it's been in the game since a bit after release. They just took it down around the time of the 7.1 update because of some issues or whatever.

Anyone else think the earned exp and credits was adjusted with version 7.1?

It seems harder to grind to a next tier tank once you get to level 5 or 6.

You almost need a premium tank, or premium account to make a profit with a high tier tank.

Hmm ,they may have, they're wargameing, you never know what kind of Shandie thing they might do to get people to spend money.

*though I always noticed that My income when I hit tier 7 (summer last year IIRC) usually wasn't alot during bad battles.

though I think that they intend people to play lower tier tanks to make money, to let them play higher tiers so people play lower tier tanks, since if they could just grind a tier 7 and make plenty of money, no one would play lower tiers.

EX in my E 100 A fail team can cost me 35-40K (+ ammo, 1200ish a shell,+ consumables) credits, but i make about 7-12K on REALLY bad battles. Though on a normal battle i usually cut even.

New version 7.2 added more tank trees and new tanks.

It also reduced the accuracy of most of the guns in the game and reduced the credits and Exp earned by all higher tier tanks.

:down:

yes, and made my E 100 even more useless! T110/IS7 FTW...

As a example:
Object 704.
Victory, 1668XP x2
19824 credits earned
24475 repairs and ammo

So whats the point of playin it anymore?

Wot is based on the idea of, Player plays big tank Wins/fails, plays smaller tanks to compensate for losses, so they can keep credits and the big tank, its annoying, but its how it keeps people playing lower tiers instead of just constantly playing tier 10.

I had a battle in the E 100 the other day, got about 55,000 credits at a cost of about 25,000 in repairs, and 12,000ish in shells.

at high tiers, make EVERY shell count, and do your damndest to not get penitrated... even if half the front hull of your tank is a 120mm weakspot.

But if you work hard to get a tank that is a good sniper, because that is your style of play, and after the update they reduced the accuracy of your gun by .4 you pretty much wasted your time.
T34-35 100mmD10 gun used to be .37 accuracy now .42
Check your Lowe. Accuracy went from .29 to .33 and rate of fire went from 6 to 5.

Their April fools plank was pretty crazy though.

What annoys me the most is that the E 100s guns still hasnt been made useful... We get stupid american tanks with over 240mm of armor, and penitrates over 260mm but I am stuck with 200 front, and a 150 gun that cant even go though 240mm of armor... and the 128mm is just as useless, as that turns this thing into a useless version of the maus.

Don't expect your E-100 to get better anytime soon. This is all about nerfing what you have to try to make you pursue something you don't have.

I'm playing the Ferd because I have a hard time moving and shooting at the same time, so it suits my play style but after finally just recently grinding up to the 128 gun which finally made the vehicle useful they overnight trashed the gun's accuracy and the visibility range of the vehicle.

If you read the patch notes, you'd know that all values in the tanks description were for crews with 100% and the maximum of available boni, now the values are what you get with a 100% crew. The characteristics of the tanks haven't changed.

IIRC they also re sized tanks.

I have to admit that the M8A1 is a pretty sexy little beast, in-spite of not really fitting into my style of play. Though I did manage to get into a match where I skirmished with a Hetzer until he got bored and RTBed only to have me come up behind him and gank him. :haha: I then promptly went to work fighting it out with a Churchill while my team-mates snuck up behind him.

You gotta watch this Monty Python spoof.....

New Soviet changes aren't bad so far, though the KV-2 definitely isn't the boss it used to be and I ended up selling my free one.

T-150 upgraded looks rather nice though.

So far so good, Got my IS4/IS8, IS4 is fun I can play tier 10 without having to be thinking about everything like with my E 100 and the IS 8 is like a super medium.

Though It sure hasn't helped the German heavy's. They're obsolete nature is really showing though.

I'm in, WOT name: SUBSIM

Sneak peak of one of the features in update 8.0
The new Rendering system.

Anyone else here play on the EU server?

I was Alter8 in WoT. Quit in may or june, was too expensive, too addictive and too stressful for me.

But I had some good times there, and didn't do too bad! Just that the company is much too greedy, and my personality too addictive! :har:
