I tried to play a few games this weekend but after about 5 or so I gave up because of the stupidity of the other players. Seriously, its the hordes of mouth breathing retards that infest this game that is the main reason I don't play that much anymore. Bad players are the #1 problem with this game right now. I refuse to play a game that just makes me frustrated and hate other people. As a very occasional player, any tutorial pages or videos you'd particular recommend to avoid being that complete moron? Particularly where to go for what on the maps? I felt like I had a vague concept of that in beta and early release, but the maps have changed or at least they look different :) My comment wasn't directed at new or casual players that haven't made it much past tier 5 as I generally don't stress about how people play at tier 5 and under. It was more directed at people playing tier 8 and above tanks with 10k+ games played. Those people SHOULD know by now how to play at least in some sort of mediocre fashion but sadly it seems 90% of the player base have gone full retard. |

Less experienced players who give terrible advice/requests and those who argue when decent/good players suggest things are the one who need to die in a fire. Hey guy with 500 games played, I have played THIS MAP more than your entire experience with WoT. Perhaps I might actually know what I am talking about.

I think I have made a major research breakthrough:

As if World of Tanks wasn't already haven to the shittiest dregs of pointless elitism Wargaming is adding a player comparison tool to almost instantly compare your stats to anyone you choose and the reverse as well. I can't wait to see how long it takes to get things moving while everyone compares themselves to the other 29 people in a match before they decide they don't want to look bad so they're going to go get a sandwqich instead of play.

Eh. Those tools were already available and pretty much anyone who cares runs xvm anyways, so I doubt it will do anything.

This. If I wanted to be optimistic, I'd hope that the tool would give a few potatoes players the drive to improve. |

No apology necessary. I thought you played a great game. We were having a great run yesterday. Nice change from Friday.

Nothing better than a pedantic post-mortem criticism of your play (immediately after you are blown up as the last tank alive trying to take on 3 people) by a clan "officer" who: 1) isn't even as good as you; and 2) got blown up earlier doing something incredibly stupid (with nary a comment about that by me).
I'm just not going to platoon with that guy.

There should be a two-person version of the Kolobanov's for something like that.

I'm happy with my clan, it's across multiple games and is made up of a good number of military and former military folks. Which you'd think would lead to some kind of heavy handed authoritarian leadership, but doesn't. Mostly I think because most of us dealt with it when we were in and have no patience for it in a game.

I have no clan, so I have no clan problems. The other people in the game, however, are complete muppets. I know I suck, and somehow they're even worse.

There is a daily mission for clan members, so you are missing out on 75k silver a day! Also missing out on the fun of listening to everyone in the clan channel bitch about how bad their teams are  |

Well, I guess I have to take a break from my break from tanks for at least a day- Tankers!
Your outpouring of affection has been felt, and we couldn't be happier; we've broken the 1,000,000 mark for Likes on Facebook! To say thanks for all your appreciation, we're rolling out an entire day of x2 XP for all victories. Don't wait; we'll see you on the battlefield!

End Date: Friday, May 2, 04:00 PDT (07:00 EDT / 11:00 UTC) I see a lot of bottom 5 finishes for me somehow |

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

It brought out every bungling, windowlicking shitflinger in existence. Played a few games this morning and I am not sure I can continue. Why do people hate to win so much?

I actually had a pretty good night last night, winning all of the matches I played instead of the usual win 2, lose 4, win 2, lose 1, win 3 thing. Though, the highest tanks I have currently are Tier IV, so it could just be that I'm more used to the windowlickers. Or maybe I am one of the windowlickers.

I played a few games this morning and noticed that my premium time was gonna run out in an hour so I added a day since things had been going well. Naturally I lost the rest of the matches I was in by ridiculous scores like 15-3 where I had 2 of the three kills or even worse where one of my 'teammates' ended up with 3 friendly kills. Total waste of 250 gold. |
