Anybody noticed anything weird in the barracks? Possible bugs?

When I login this morning, I noticed my barrack is full, which it should not. When I checked the barrack, I got a whole team of Foch 155 crews at 100% with about 65% at primary skill. For the French TD line I am grinding in tier 6 right now, there is no way I can train Foch 155 crews. I also have a team of T110E5 crews at 100% with a primary skill also. I have the T110E5 but my crews already in the tank with 3 skills. What is going on?

Thats the crew from your 8 bit winter tanks.
 
You know you're on a suck team when you deal the most amount of damage on your team in a T69 stock (~1700) and no.2 is around 700 damage.... :/
 
Yay for the On Track for T57 Heavy. 🙂 30% off T57 Heavy and 30% off T49 too. I just need to grind quite a bit of XP to see if I can unlock and buy that T57 Heavy.

Seems like light and medium tanks are included on this.
 
stag3, nice seeing you online. I think we lost that battle, I don't remember. I do know I had a hideous streak of games that day. I *think* that was my 183 game where I was annihilated by hidden mediums.

Since you asked about PLSGO, yeah... I am done with clans. I have been in social ones who months later want to become something else, and I quit. I have been in competitive ones who inevitably piss me off through decision making, and I quit. I have been in ultra serious ones that had no room for fun, and I quit. And PLSGO... which was the most childish group of people I have ever encountered, so I quit.

It is solo for FrodoTSolo, platoons only. Maybe a tourney or legionnaire sometimes, but that is it!
 
haha dude yea we got rekt, only so much i can do in a t49. they had so many meds i couldn't do shit for vision control in the mid as i was the only one there spotting.

yea i hear you, the reason i've stayed in rddt so long is because everyone is super laid back. we aren't ultra serious yet do ok for ourselves. i only show up maybe 2x a week for cw.
 
This past weekend is the first weekend that my personal score advanced forward; I credit that to my new M4A3E8.

I need to now grind a T5 that hits like a truck. KV-1S mebbe? I have a Chaffee...decent fun, but it gets old spotting for teams that aren't looking.
 
yea just go down the is-7 line, all are great tanks with the possible exception of the is-8. i never liked it, it's a med/heavy hybrid which doesn't do well as either

I like my current clan because it doesn't place that many demands, which is what I want. Basically, it's a clan where you get on to play with some people, occasionally do some strongholds. There were about 6-7 people that wanted to do more hardcore stuff that quit about a month ago because none of the rest of us wanted to, and it's made the clan better. Basically, just get on and platoon. Occasionally do strongholds (if you want). Do a tournament (if you want).
 
Anyone with a T49 hate the stock 90mm gun on it? (sigh) HE, HEAT, HE are the rounds of choice. Sure, the 1st HE has 105mm penetration but ugh. Makes you really not want to shoot. 5,600 silver for a single HEAT round shot.

Also, I only have the stock tracks, are the 2nd tracks much more maneuverable? Feels like a brick right now. Stats wise, says yes, soft stats say no.

Though I can't verify the soft stats, forgot password to Tank Inspector and waiting a reset due to new version of TI.
 
my t49 is fully upgraded, and it's still sluggish as hell. i free xp'd everything so i don't know how it was stock but it's not fast/quick by any means once upgraded.

Hmm...

Scout already dead, normal.
KV-1S chilling at cap area, normal.
KV-1S going where mediums and LT go... not normal?

Both guns are terrible on the T49, TBH that tank was made with money in mind. You can't use the tank reasonably without purchasing gold rounds for either gun. I have unlocked the tank but never purchased it and I don't plan to. The tank itself is only good when using the 152mm launcher and even then you have to pay for rounds, a waste of a good tank if you ask me. They should have given it a standard 90mm gun (it had one during pre-release, they removed it).

It's a fun tank when you get to shoot at soft targets, but RU/T54LT/1390 are more effective scouts. Even the Bulldog is easier to do consistent damage in.
 
WGL player was in my last game driving a Bulldog, I hopped up on the ledge with my T71 and popped him, I kept popping him until he was at 8% I took my last shot and I was celebrating knowing that I was about to get 250 gold, shot rolled low and left him with 2 HP I got killed by a Tiger right before i let my last shot off FML.

Not quite as bad on my part. I was in my Easy 8 holding down a chokepoint when I noticed we were getting rolled. We had half their numbers. I rolled to our cap just in time to see what was left of out team getting pounded. I had a great position on a hill with only my mantlet exposed. Bang! Larry went down, bang! Curly went down, and bang! Moe was done. Turned the corner and smoked a regular M4 and an SPG that was fleeing in terror. In 20 seconds, I took them from complete victory to utter defeat. I found the last guy on their team and was about to finish him when a TD smoked him. Dick didn't do a single point of damage the entire game and took my TG medal off me.

It's funny how people rarely push the advantage in this game. All they had to do is flank me, and it would have been game over for us.

Probably now thinks it is justified to failtoon. WG blows at the simple stuff. They can easily fix it, but refuse.

I read on For the Record that they are thinking of doing something on the fail platoons. How soon, that's the majic question. I can understand maybe be at the most a 2 tier spead on a platoon max if it was me.

Haven't played much on 9.6 but i'm not finding the aiming nerf that bad. There were some calling it the end of WoT.
 
call me a dick but i don't give a shit when it comes to fail platoons.
as soon as they leave the cap circle i just TK the low tier scrub.
have never turned blue as a result so i'll continue to do it.

I haven't done that yet, but I've started backing up and pushing crowders into battle. You know the guy: charges in front of you and cuts off line of sight to enemy tanks and stays there. Surprise of all surprises when I push them into a battle they can't back out of.
