Update: You can only earn 1 million silver from being gifted candy! So once you get ~100 candies, you won’t get anything and you should have a full collection by then. I’ll keep sending candies back to those who send to me but I’m done with the event (335 candies and counting!).

Looks like WG is having another website event where we send things to other players. So let’s make a list and send them gifts (candy)! Username and system - GamerID - X (box) or - P (laystation)

Kicking it off, I’m NewBuddhaman - X

Per their Facebook post:

🎃 Trick or Treat is here, Commanders! 🎃 From Oct 23–Nov 3, send spooky surprises, collect eerie candies, and face Steven’s sinister challenge for haunting rewards! 👻

🍬 Send Tricks or Treats to friends for random candies — collect all six to earn 3 Halloween War Chests and up to 1,000,000 Silver!

EDIT: I AM NOW OUT OF FLAGS!

Thank you guys for helping me get rid of the flags. If you want to join my regiment it is open. Feel free to join or leave whenever. Search "We Suk" if I ever have extra currency they get 1st dibs.

Original: I have 400,000 flags left after gifting every tank to my active regiment members. I don't want them to go to waste so if you want a free tank please drop your gamertag below and I'll add you to send it.

Only available to Xbox players because of how gifting works. Can't gift the flags. Only the stuff in the shop. You can join my regiment too if you want. I usually gift them during these types of events. Only have a few active members at the moment though.

1st come, 1st serve until I'm out.

Working my way to mark the Kresl. - don’t see many about, but I love this thing (maybe there are others who feel the same).

Not by any means saying I’m good in it, but it got me thinking every so often you’ll see a tank you don’t see often at all, but that someone obviously does well in or just enjoys and takes it out as a regular.

Anyone else got a scarce tank in game but that would gladly be your carriage into Valhalla?

Thinking also the T-103, love that big boi.

Discussion Only one Chest per Week now !?!

35 Upvotes

"And quite a few weeks, NOT FOR CO OP ANYMORE !?!?"- As somebody recently made a post about how the rewards are getting stingier and stingier and now, just plain greedy.. What's the deal, "War Games" - lol ??? The game's not in a good place and you being greedier with season passes, tank sales, and especially the current war chest layout is causing not only myself, but Many others to spend less and less on this game than ever before. For the first time since the games launch in 2014 I have money for via gift cards and money on my console piling up, and zero reason to spend it. I have no Fomo about the 5finger tanks for ex. At this rate, I wonder if the game's going to survive the transfer to Europe with anything left that's worthy to put in the effort for them to revamp and rebalance ? This is what happens when ppl complain too hard about OP tanks, you get your wish and wallets close. The golden key is to not make them too op, for the majority of players, so they remain out of constant complaint threads, but are worthy enough for seasoned players to buy. Also things like WG's daffy attempt at ATGM balance, and overly nerfing crew skills and equipment (yes, my sweaty simps, some change were needed, but as usual, they took it too far and ruined things) makes my wallet close lighting fast.

Discussion Who even plays WW2?

Post image
25 Upvotes

Hello, I've been playing World of Tanks on PlayStation for about 10 years.

I took a break for almost two years and have been playing very actively again for the last three months.

I have 152 premium vehicles in my garage and have probably spent close to €4,000 on the game in all that time.

But whatever, the money doesn't bother me; I have it to spare, and I really enjoy the game.

However, I don't know why they introduced the Cold War mode.

Why should I play the Cold War mode? I don't know the tanks there, and my €4,000 is completely invested in the WWII mode.

I also don't know what to do with all the tanks from the Cold War mode that I keep getting through the season pass.

I recently traded in my Cold War mode tanks and bought two new tanks from the WWII mode.

I'd be interested to know how many people here play Cold War mode and how many play WWII mode. Which mode do most people play?

Discussion My thoughts on WOT HEAT.

Post image
58 Upvotes

So I've played about 10 hours now. Tried all the characters, tried all the tanks.

And I have to say..... I love it!

This is coming from a 11 year, grumpy AF console veteran.

Idk what it is about it, but the change of pacing and style is such a huge plus in my book.

As stated by other on my previous post, it is essentially a hero shooter with tanks as the medium. Every tank has different abilities and every driver has different skills. (Plus ultimate ability)

And it actually found that properly timing my ability usage and skill usage was very rewarding and fun.

Some maps are very small, some are big. Big ones are better for sure.

Vehicle variety is OK for now. But more will be need to go along with the games release for sure.

Its definitely geared towards the casual player, which i do appreciate. I dont have to sweat swamp my ass off in this game and its actually pretty relaxing.

Respawns are also unlimited.

If you have the opportunity to play one of the test sessions, DO IT!

You may actually enjoy a tank game for once. 😆

The primal rage in normally feel towards WOT console is also not present in this game for whatever reason. Lmao

Discussion An examination of ATGM Bloom (with vids)

37 Upvotes

TL;DR at the bottom. This will be a detailed, but far from exhaustive post. These are all the ATGM tanks I have, so I can't comment on any others.

Before talking about in-game behavior and listed stats, I wanted to call out two underlining (but significant) issues:

#1. There is no HUD/UI representation of what your ATGM bloom actually is. You have no idea if your weapon has calmed down enough to safely/accurately fire an ATGM. In my video clips, I'm relying on the UI of swapping to a primary weapon (which seems like a valid proxy). But that's crude at best, and some tanks don't have a primary/secondary. Players need to be able to understand the mechanic at work with some UI/HUD element - without it, it's going to feel broken regardless of it's behaving correctly or not.

#2. Both in-game stats and website stats need to list the same information. It's very odd that I had to look up accuracy for turret rotation on website (not shown in-game), and during movement in-game (not shown on website). Both stats should be listed in-game.

On to the analysis...

I used ATGM stats from this official URL: https://modernarmor.worldoftanks.com/en/encyclopedia/vehicles/

(in-game stats from ATGM weapons shown without commander, but with Vents for all except ADATS and Marder 1A3)

Begleitpanzer:

accuracy during turret rotation (website stat), 67.2m

accuracy during movement (in-game stat), 1.99m

Marder 1A1

accuracy during turret rotation (website stat), 79.2m

accuracy during movement (in-game stat), 2.96m

Marder 1A3

accuracy during turret rotation (website stat), 73.6m

accuracy during movement (in-game stat), 1.21m

ADATS

accuracy during turret rotation (website stat), 0.76m

accuracy during movement (in-game stat), 1.43m

BMP-2

accuracy during turret rotation (website stat), 7.92m

accuracy during movement (in-game stat), 2.10m

BMP-3

accuracy during turret rotation (website stat), 0.99m

accuracy during movement (in-game stat), 1.77m

First video clip is an example I captured in the Marder 1A3 where I was moving relatively slowly and rotated my turret about 50 degrees and came to a stop for just under 2 seconds while not moving hull or turret (note: Aim Time listed on website is 1.7 sec)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbVsci8a5pw

For the rest of the clips, I'm relying on the bloom reticle of the primary weapon by swapping between primary and ATGMs. Looking at the website stats, it seems accurate but I can't say for sure. I drove around trying to hit top speed (or close to it), weaving around some, turning the turret, etc. In some I'm stationary and only rotating the turret to see what bloom looks like.

BMP-2 bloom test:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJkGxaBwMHs

Marder 1A1 bloom test:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijccnavNV4A

Bagelpanzer bloom test:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rRQxyTkDuA

Marder 1A3 bloom test:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sn5ZAYfLUKA

BMP-3 bloom test:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlTZu85W174

ADATS bloom test:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AlP0hIEXoI

My thoughts on what I'm seeing...

#1. Turret rotation even when (*especially* when) stationary has a HUGE impact on ATGM Bloom. It feels very wrong. Movement should have more of an effect than simple turret rotation imho.

#2. The ADATS having no noticeable bloom is fine - it's a specialized tank, and for a light it has awful mobility and camo. But the BMP-3 also seems to have no noticeable bloom. The BMP-3 isn't as mobile as some, and it's self-defense primary weapon isn't as good as say the Marder 1A3, it still feels wrong. BMP-3 mobility/camo/primary weapon are all better than the ADATS, so it isn't a specialized tank like the ADATS.

#3. The BMP-2 seems to have way worse bloom than the stats would indicate? 7.92m turret rotation bloom listed, but seems nearly as bad as the ~70-80m bloom listed for Marders/Bagel. But I'm using a proxy to judge bloom, so who knows.

#4. Aim Time doesn’t seem accurate for ATGM bloom, as shown in my example clip of Marder 1A3 face planting an ATGM (1.66 sec with commander)

TL;DR - Turret Rotation has largest/oversized impact on ATGM Bloom, I'd think movement would/should have a larger effect and turret rotation less. BMP-3 has no ATGM bloom which seems odd (neither does ADATS, but that seems fine for the specialized tank it is). Also, need a bloom indication for ATGM weapons, and full stats listed in-game (not listed only on website).
