World of Tanks

[IgLoCSka]

Aye. I really miss mine....so many tanks I want to "get back" that I loved in Beta but it is so much work. Although I knew from the beginning everything from beta would be wiped away it still does feel a little demotivating having to get it all back again. Takes longer this time around too because I don't get 150 gold daily for free like in the beta to transfer exp off my scouts/arty/etc to help speed things up

Hehe, I have been a sucker lately and bought gold for converting all the piled up free XP. But to be honest I don't mind spending a bit on WoT, considering how much I play it.

As for losing the tanks, yeah it was a total bummer. First month or two when the retail game came out I didn't even touch it, I kinda felt "cheated" out of my awesome tanks. But now I have my IS4, I have my t43 (t44 in a day or two), my SU8, so life in WoT is good again

Ugghhh...

So now I got the M2A1 Howitzer for my Priest. Man that thing is inaccurate. The M3 is short range but hell of a lot more accurate.

T1 Heavy is open but I'm short on cash.

Seems like it's on the EU server too. Unless I just got 4.8k XP on my T43 after being blown to bits prematurely

Ooo, need to get some work done tonight then :)

Hmmm I logged on about 30 mins after maint this morning and got a regular daily double(not 5x) and now that the event is live I ain't getting no bonuses or anything. Just regular exp. Did I screw myself over?

I am noticing something about the KV with stock turret + 122mm. People really seem to be underestimating me. It was me, a T20, and a Slugger vs a T29, Tiger, Jpanther, and an E8. Everyone focused on the T20(who was seriously pimp at dodging) meanwhile me and the slugger(90mm) were beating on them. At the end when the dust settled the T29, Tiger, Jpanther, and E8 lied in wrecks at our feet and all of us were at least 50% health left because while the T20 kept dodging they pretty much left me and the slugger completely alone and I just hammered them with HE again and again. Silly people.

I was really hoping that round would be my 5x but no....just normal exp, like 750(non premium) kinda disapointed as I REALLY can't wait for the 107 so I can finally hit something beyond 100m

5x exp = from the first win of the day, per tank.

Yeah I know but all I got was my daily double so basically on my KV at least my 5x got wasted for the day. That's what I am saying.

Yep. The daily double is your first win of the day. 5x went live after that -> you wasted it for that day.

Oh and by the way, these 5x weekends are just a huge ploy to sell a lot of gold.

You'll end up using your older elite tanks as well for juicy exp - "free" exp, that needs to be converted. Lots of it. Easily 500 gold worth per day. You also gain exp a lot faster than credits so whenever you hit that next tank upgrade (in a day or two), you are short on credits and... turn to gold so you can get that IS-3/4 or T-54 you were grinding for.

I must give Wargaming.net credit - their microtransaction model is nearly perfect. If they would just deep-six gold ammo (or restrict it to UC matches or something) the gameplay would be fairly "pure" while people would still spend tons of real money to shorten the grind aspects...

Hell yes and I'm a sucker for it. Bought 5500 gold this month instead of 2500 and converting away like a champ.

CW ftw then! I get ~ 1k stipend a week from the gold generated in CW. It is almost like stealing.
