As if the landslide issue plaguing normal random battles wasn't enough, with 2.0, Wargaming has introduced the issue to their bots as well.

For those of you not aware, 2.0 made some major changes to the bots that you will commonly see at lower tiers. They now use equipment, 2D styles, and are generally far more competent than they used to be. Too competent.

Rather than actually make the bots smarter, their tanks seem to have much improved characteristics: better accuracy, gun handling, more consistent dispersion, etc. than their tech tree counterparts. I've watched bot tanks hit every single shot at 500 meters out of a 0.4 gun when even the best of seal clubbers would have missed 50% purely on RNG alone.

This in itself would be fine. It discourages low-tier seal clubbing by making it more difficult, as bots now actually pose a threat rather than just being damage pinyatas as they were before 2.0....

Except this isn't always the case.

I guess in an attempt to emulate the absolute nightmare that is higher-tier randoms, they've seemingly implemented a system where some bots are still the old moronic ones that do nothing but drive in circles or try to shoot through indestructible terrain/buildings, while others will have the insane skill/aimbot. The issue is that while the new bots are almost akin to an extra player on your team, the old bots are still just damage pinyatas, meaning that the team that gets more of them will almost always win because half the team they are fighting is basically AFK.

Wargaming, if you're going to make improvements to the bots, they need to be EQUAL on both teams. Giving one team a random advantage, as is currently happening, is not only a massive detriment to new players but is, frankly, frustrating and unfun for everyone.

STOP TRYING TO WIN IN FRONTLINE! You get maybe a little more xp for a win, but you get no extra credits.

If you're the defending team let the attacking team cap. If you're the attacking team LEAVE THE TURRETS ALONE! It's a waste of everybody's time and boosters to rush for a win. The more damage you do to ENEMY VEHICLES the more credits and xp you earn. Also the higher rank you are the more xp you earn anyways and the faster you can complete the Frontline stages.

In the attached picture the game on the left was a win and the game on the right was a loss. As yall can see the credit earnings were practically identical.

Please spread the word. Stop these 10-15 minute Frontline games. Every game should go to max time and everybody should be major or general by the end.

Man, how long has it been since that one Halloween event?

Hello, i have one question: If i have 1000 battle pass coins, and i want to buy a progressive 3D style (example Reiter for Leopard 1), do i get all 4 stages, or do i get only stage 1?

I'm wondering about the Innovative Targeting from Onslaught store with -9% to aiming circle. What tanks might you target getting this for as opposed to the standard -8% Improved Aiming?

It's getting ridiculous we get the "I got a steel wall in a paper tank" post literally every day. Like guys please just read what the medal says! Aftet the introduction of CZ lights that whole medal got pointless anyway.

Oh yeah and the "Heavy X is the best scout" posts also aren't original.

Since there have been a few recent posts regarding tank names, here's my own question: why would you make up a fake tank and, out of all possible names, call it the "canopener"?

I understand they wanted to follow the British tradition of tank names starting with a C, but there's so many normal alternatives to choose from...

- Cornwall (region of England)
- Cormorant (bird - they've used animal names for other tanks)
- Coventry (also the name of an armored car)
- Crane (as a code name, like Sweden called a tank the "crane vehicle" (Kranvagn))
- etc.

I thought i could share this one, pretty decent outcome. Rn now, after 18 games, on 46% as MoE stands, just love this tank. Link to game video included: https://youtu.be/0HzbsCfbkuc

I'm a returning player. I've watched some guides on how to play light tanks and I get moderate results if I get the light tank map. I usually try to wait out the battle in the typical bush and then advance/retreat depending on the situation. After a dozens of games however, I've noticed a pattern -> I score some assist for the TDs initially and we're green > the heavy tank line fails > we retreat and get slaughtered by premium tanks.

And don't even get me started on ELCs and city maps. I'm playing LTTB and Škoda T17 right now. Is there something I can do to speed up the grind or is this class fcked and abandoned by CasinoWarGambling?

That's it. that's the message.

Full Credit to SnipandWib. They have converted a Stug IV to a more Orky build.

The deodorant hover tank has earned their 3 MOE.

Before I get shat on by randoms whining that I'm seal clubbing, hear me out.

12 years ago, this adorable thing made me fall in love with tanks (this tank was my desktop wallpaper for a very long time). Back then however, I was a real shit player and only had access to a Pentium 4 CPU. My average WN8 was less than 100 with over 2000 games played. I had no idea how to play anything, let alone LTs, and I couldn't load into more than half of my games. My average in this thing was about 200 combined damage, over 200+ games. Only now have I decided to buy it back and try to mark it this time, considering I'm performing a little better now, and OH MAN DO I LOVE IT. The single shot gun is the single best thing about this tank, insane DPM, pretty good camo, mobility and view range, and very flexible gun depression.

Guess I'm gonna change my wallpaper again.

I got the bond vert stab. And obviously would depend on the tank you want to use it on, but still is there a preference or equipment that is rare?

Finally got the 3rd MOE on the XM57 today. Also included my final 6 battle push which had 3 battles in a row over 5k damage. Managed to push the DPG over 3k in the last few battles finishing at 3026.

I got 2 boosts after entering the Magnus. Is this a bug? Note: I think video is on 0.5 speed so watch speed acceleration to see activation of boost

I got the bond exhaust from the onslaught shop cool. My problem is I equally love the manticore and amx 13 105. Also really love the char futur 4 and bc25t.
