Every time a new patch comes out my FPS goes down, is Wargaming is trying to wean me off the game?

I find it funny how an 2600K and GTX580 can't run WoT at a constant 60FPS, when I can run BF3 on Ultra and get higher FPS than I do in WoT.

Weird, my framerate is getting steadily better and better, with each patch.

[Squarebob]

On the test server my framerate was awful, even on the lowest settings. i7-930, GTX 580, and 6GB RAM

Finally got it :)

With the HE Buff in 7.4, will the HE blasters (122, 105, etc) actually be considered an alternative and or a threat in higher tier battles? What about artillery such as the Priest or SU-5?

I'd love to try out the 122 on my KV-13 if it can deal some major module/crew damage to enemy tanks.

[Valdor]

The people we just kicked out of jutland reapplied for it.

Wonder if they'll make it to the finals to face us again.

They will not defeat us, we hold the high ground.

also this likely the Japanese Tier 10 Medium

The Type 74 Nana-yon
38 tons, 750 horsepower engine, top speed 53km/h, Designed in 1962 and is on level with the Leopard 1 and M60 with armor thickness similar to the M48 and of course like damn near everything in this time period mounts the British L7 105.



I like it.

woops, my bad

Edited:

T20 with the HE lobber 105 is actually pretty effective and it shoots faster than the 90 which is hilarious.

I always wanted to try it but the 90mm seemed adequate.

[cccino]

I really need to get my shit together and focus. Tanks in my garage* I'm grinding: T20 (96,500xp to go), T29 (79,500xp to go), M5 Stuart (39,500xp to go and I haven't even played it in a month), KV-1S (still 28,000 for engine+gun, plus ~103k depending if I want both IS and KV-13), SU-100 (42,000xp if I ignore the 85mm), ARL 44 (64,000xp), AMX 12t (~90k xp if I want to jump to the SPG line plus the AMX 13)... plus I haven't even started on the US TDs... I don't have any German tanks yet... British Are Coming™... and so on.

And I don't want to buy premium while the threat of 7.4 being a fucking nightmare looms over like a storm front.

He says he needs ~90k exp on AMX12t. That should give you a hint.

I've had streaks like that. Hitting moving light scout tanks across the map, but a heavy tank sitting right in front of my fully-aimed reticule is missed entirely.

But when it hits... Ooooh-hohoho, when it hits.

It's both astounding and annoying at the same time.

Some SSGS sub clan faggot in a KV-1S is trying to troll people by saying he's using Gold ammo.


In a tier 7 match.

I really don't feel like grinding that much on the 12t, but then I don't really feel like going up an SPG line from the bottom, either.

Your smartest idea would be to grind XP on the Panzer III Ausf A until you have 100,000 gold worth, buy that much gold to convert it, then spend it all on French artillery.

What if he does? The Ausf A is an incredibly good tank for it's tier and a testament to German engineering.

Huh, they snuck in a Maus buff in 7.4.

There's no more flat part on Maus's front hull, there's slope on upper and lower front plate.

Im all but certian it was always slightly sloped like that dude

[ayaki]

Looking at mine right now, no flat part.

[Awesomecaek]

Huh, I would have sworn there was purely vertical part and that's where I always penetrate them...

Nevermind then.


I should still figure out what have they done tho because there's some change.

Wargaming has implied that there are some pretty big maus buffs coming, so I'm pretty happy right now.

That's still a moderate buff. I can't tell you the times I've gotten trashed by a really fucking dumb E-100 or Maus in a VIII because I simply can't get enough damage out.

[Awesomecaek]

Health buff is pointless tho.

If they give it armor which can help it ding one more IS-7 shot over it's life, it instantly means it virtually had 490 hp more thanks to the change.

I don't like HP system much, and I think that tanks which are meant to take a beating and hold it should mainly tank using armor and not health.

Maybe after historic they will work on separating arcade and module based modes?
