I spent 180k free exp to grind M103 .. which was pain .. then after 4 moths I sold T110E5 cause it was just too slow for me.. now I’m playing only up to tier8 and only medium tanks .. one I get to higher tier I will think about buying higher mediums .. maybe… but probably not

Nothing wrong with buying on discount. It’s a smart measure.

I think more attention should be given to tier II~IV tanks, a place where non-noobs can play them and not seal-clubing.

I would disagree that bad stock tank would help gold sales either, as those less devoted players may gave up an entire line when they reach those tanks.

I think clan war should be premium players only; you can be a clan member without premium, but you need it if the clan want to stack your tank on.

You should be able to buy some “Historical Battle ver.” tanks; i.e. people can buy a Ferdinand that is available in Historical Battle, but it cannot be play on random until you have it researched.

The TOG is actually quite overpowered with his abnormal hp pool, matchmaking and the best gun on tier 6.
Churchill and Black Prince Matilda (preferential MM), Ram and T25 are very solid, the french Tier 5 Arty is overpowered as hell, E25 rocks and kv5 (despite having nonexistent pen) is always fun to play.
Some Premium Tanks are actually better than the normal ones on their tier. Type59, B2, T127, Su122-44, Tetrarch, Locust and the french tier 3 AT gun come to mind.

*sigh* just think about it: Family man, well off, loves WoT. Regrettably he doesn’t have much time to play it. So he skips every tank and module by using free xp. Costs him some bucks to save hours of grinding, credit farming etc. It will surely be the better deal for him: If you earn 100 Euro net in an hour of work you don’t really mind to spend 3-4 Euros max to save one hour of grinding. That surely is the way WG gets a lot of his money. Spending 1000 Euro in 2 Years on a computer game isn’t that rediculous if you have cars in your garage that cost 100 Times as much!

You just hate arty don’t you. :P Arty is hard to play, but I’ve only played French arty, other nations may be OP. IDK

My problem might be I’m not the arty scrub who sits where he spawned. I move around all over the place looking for the right spot to shoot from. and as such might have problems from getting a new obstacle that just manages to be in my way. Playing arty may be easy-

Playing arty well ISN’T. not at all. not even a little bit…. unless you make it easy for the arty player. I had three arty constantly shooting at my AMX m4 one match. I never stopped moving. They were trying so hard to hit me, but they failed. AMX m4 is one of my favorite tanks to shoot at in arty. and while playing mine they didn’t kill me, the KV-3 did. :P

The reason arty seem OP death from above is because players DONT play arty and don’t learn their weaknesses. and therefore sit in the open perfectly still waiting to be bombed. I grin so massive when they do that. ….. then do 300 damage and have a 25+ second reload. Curses. I didn’t hit his top armour…. SIDES AGAIN!

That’s fine. But I tried the “other game” and didn’t like it much. It’s COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. And that’s not a bad thing. However the game is very complex…. possibly too complex and too historical. for me that is. I love WOT. I guess I’m staying.

I might play the “other” occasionally. but it’s got a lot of things in it that make me not like it near as much as WOT.
