jwduquette1 Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Not sure what it is about the Vk30.02M -- maybe just me -- probably just its tier grouping -- but I like it way-way better than the Panther-1. The Vk is sort of what I think the Panther should be in this game. I started playing the Panther-1 again and I am remembering why I grew to hate it before. You can do everything right in terms of tactics employed and abuse of game mechanics. It's still a pain to try and over-come the pin-prick alpha. It would be one thing if it were smaller and much more nimble -- like the comet or T20 or even the T-43. The Panther is as big as a barn with marginal maneuverability for a Tier VII medium. I can take an opponent completely by surprise -- put three or four pin-prick shotz into their arse only to have them turn round and put a 400-DMG shell through my lower plate -- kill my engine or rack me -- kill my driver -- etc. I don't care what others might say about what a great sniper it is and how much they love their panther-1 . Snipping and being able to maintain sufficient stand-off to snipe is completely situational and completely team dependent. The way the Panther has been represented in this game by WG puts it into the realm of a "well rounded turd". Edited May 21, 2015 by jwduquette1
Stefan Fredriksson Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 The Panther has its moments, but overall not directly user-friendly. I have not tested the 3002M, might give it a go instead.But that means going back to 3001H for a few games.... ewwww.
Stefan Fredriksson Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Can you carry in a VK3001H?Answer is - almost:
Skywalkre Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Took a 4k+ dmg game at tier 7 to pull this off. Edited May 25, 2015 by Skywalkre
bojan Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) I actually accidentally clicked battle with M48, I wanted to play with T57, but hey, I will not complain... ~6500 damage, and almost lost game... Reason why you never should go city on Live Oaks...http://wotreplays.com/site/1924188#self Edited June 1, 2015 by bojan
bojan Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Today is my day... FV215 Heavy and 6000 damage...http://wotreplays.com/site/1925130#redshire-bojan-fv215b
Stefan Fredriksson Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Ohhh, I got it to work somehow, posting Pictures, had to change BBCode Mode.
Stefan Fredriksson Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 Even a blind pig. Best was that I finished last Heavy mission. Which I really did a match before, but WoT did not do its math ok...
Stefan Fredriksson Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Yeah, I may come to like this one after all.
jwduquette1 Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Anyone else getting random game crashes since 9.9 was released? I seem to be getting them about once every 7 or 8 matches. Dumps back to my desk top. I have to restart. Usually takes about 90 to 120 seconds to re-enter the match.
jwduquette1 Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 I also noticed that I am no longer seeing replies in my PM chat boxes.
Stefan Fredriksson Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 No crashes yet. But the new domination was a bit confusing.Also seen a few complaints about graphics if you use lower settings. Seen both the Japanese tiger and SP1C (nice naming...), no distinct impression yet.
zaarin7 Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 No crashes here either. Didn't like the Domination event in the testing and still don't care for it.
bojan Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 Slowly grinding Japanese heavy line and this happened...http://wotreplays.com/site/2148997#sand_river-bojan-o-i_experimental
Paul G. Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 I just ditched the Jap heavy line at the O-I x. I just dint find playing a Jap KV-1 fun.
Stefan Fredriksson Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 At type 95, and I feel interest slipping for that line. Not sure I will go further.
bojan Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 At tier 6 ATM. It is not bad line, other than 95 (through it has it's moments) but pretty bland all around.OTOH, ramming IS-6 in tier 6 O-I for 100hp every time i even scratch it is worth it. And that T-44 that rammed me for whole 220hp while losing 75% of health was hilarious also.
Stefan Fredriksson Posted November 21, 2015 Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) Yes, this is a nice tank. 4881 dmg. Edited November 21, 2015 by Stefan Fredriksson

Colin Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 Winning the battle in a M15/42 with 5 kills and 1 hitpoint left, awesome, 3915 xp and 20,840 in credits and Ace Tanker I really like this tank, a good accurate gun for it's tier, not a monster, you need to play it's strengths and the gun depression is one of them.
Colin Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 Good Archer game, took out an LTG and t-67 at full speed from about 3/4 view distance and then knifefight with an E-25 who lost, plus damage to a couple of other vehicles not bad 1932 xp points and 3 tokens, Master level 2, FOF ribbon and a Halonens medal. With a good crew and the right place this TD does quite well and is often unappreciated as a threat.
