World of Tank Player Roster?

[Chucky]

You know what really annoys me ?
It's not the game but some of the players.

I bought the Lowe and the Churchill and I am finding that while waiting for the game start I get all sorts of abuse for playing with those tanks. (the Lowe more so)

'Wallet Warrior' I was called and worse.In fact yesterday I just quit the game.

Maybe I need to be less sensitive but these guys p**s me off.
My Lowe earns me good credits

Ah met some nasty people too.

I personally do not mind wallet warrior as hey it's their money and indeed premium tanks are good credit farmers.

One thing I understand is Lowe and KV-5 being premium tanks are a high tier tanks(tier 8) and they are very popular(well sold) which means now high tier matches are populated with many many Lowes especially.

Now high tier tanks are expected to contribute a significant portion to the team winning chance but because small number of players can't play them properly you get a lot of flaming on the whole Lowe players partly too because of the envy I'd assume.

I'd never call a Lowe player a wallet warrior nor do I hate them. However I do notice there's now a significant proliferation of Lowe tanks in every match which makes matches generally more difficult for non premium high tier tanks since Lowe is a tough one.

But it is also true that there are a lot of nasty people in WoT. Too many broken people in society.

Or morons calling people noobs when they have 0 kills!
Some clown called me that just b4 the end of the match when i got shafted, i had 3 kills with Marder 2.
I wanted to type back but the game finished.

The anoying part about the lowe is when people (EX me) work for tier 8 tanks for months, but some people can drop 30$ to get to tier 8 in afew minutes.

And then when you get a team of 5 or 6 lowes.

The credit losses could amount to 20k for a bad game after repair and ammo.

OAH YES! My king tiger with the KWK 46 cost me about 12-14,000 credits to fix it, and about 7-13,000 credits for shells if i shot back.

But 30,000 credits after a good battles when you kill a lot of enemy's... just doesn't cut it.

True,it's just a pity there isn't some sort of rank feature that shows you are a seasoned tanker and not a 'wallet warrior' noob.

Trust me. You will know the "tier 2 and 3 Noobs who have bought a tier 8 tank" by their fail rate on the battlefield!
It is VERY noticeable!

Now, i have a mod which removes the hud completely from the game, so i can take screenies whilst playing, w/o the hud interfering:


My Marder in the foreground, awaiting battle.


A nice aerial of battle countdown!

The zoom works incredibly well, you can zoom in under the tracks at the right angle, or, you can zoom right out and get a bird's eye view of proceedings.
I'll try to take better shots tomorrow.

Also, on a side note for the Lowe weakspots.

Hit the lower Glacis plate on any German tank and it will penetrate. Also, if a Lowe is hulldown on you and you only have a shot at the turret (difficult to pen sometimes) aim right under their gun. Theres a shot trap that will make the round bounce right into the front of their hull which kills the driver, possibly the ammo load, the transmission (ergo engine) and can also take out the turret ring if your lucky.

Have had a few hits like these and they're a pain in the arse.

Edit: Also, does people making fun of others for actually PAYING to play a game while they do not paint a sad picture of society or is it just me?

When I make say 24,000 in my T-54 the repair and ammo replenishment would cost me 17-20,000. In the end I made just a few thousands.

But can't beat the fun and XP.

[Feuer Frei!]

I'm about 3K away from the KV-3. I'm skipping the KV-1S, i've heard it's no good, certainly not as good as the KV-3.
Also, why is the S-51 127, 300 XP?
That is insane!

[HunterICX]

6k in XP away for me getting the KV3
then up to the IS

Yeah that happens from time to time.

I usually return the 'favor' by replying through a private channel.

If the abuse was so bad I sent a PM to go with the private channel message.

BUUUUUURRRRRN down this little man.

Never go to bad angry

It doesn't mean becoming like them though. I was merely suggesting to return the 'courtesy' so these kind of people know how it feels dealing with their own kind of personality. I am sure they don't like to deal with their own like personality. In short to play them.

It is also one of the reason to educate younger people(children) about these kind of people in the internet so that they understand and are not dragged into their level. It's best to limit their internet usage per day too until they are adult and can be trusted or have developed a character of their own.

Always easy to find rude people. I've also had some well mannered players . offering tips and a helping hand. The game is fun no matter what, go out there
