Stock gun is 11.09rpm but it does 250 damage at 209 pen. Looked at last gun thats still locked and its at 5.78rpm

Can you share the name of the mod that makes me load in on time on Xbox? 🤡

Because all your games are either Xbox One games, designed around the HDD and have no ability to shorten the wait for SSD users, or actually do this and are less noticeable about it for various reasons. I know CoD absolutely has this in Warzone.

HDDs for gaming have been widely considered obsolete for over half a decade, arguably longer.

SSDs are faster to load than HDDs. This is a hardware fact. Its performance is not game related, its hardware.

The game runs the same on it as its meant to. Your hardware is slower so its slower to load. Just as your GPU is worse and have 30 FPS with 1080p graphics where current Gen is 60 FPS with 4k graphics.

# ionic flicker So the hardware that the game was meant to run on it doesn't run on?🙃

The game absolutely does run on a Hard Drive Disc, but due to the nature of the technology the read/write speeds are slower than a Solid State Drive.
A HDD is likely sitting at 30MB/S whereas a PS5 is running at 8000MB/S.

There is a technological deficit here that WG simply cannot overcome. The technology is simply outdated, like CD's and Floppy discs of yesteryear. They are just the latest casualty of progress

It feels you may be trolling at this point as its been answered and explained several times now. As none of this is related to the thread of skills, consumable, and equipment feedback, lets move on from this.

Yes the guy who called me a troll and doubted how many games I own totally didn't see his opportunity to make snide comment which he knew he could get away with under the guise of "common mod" then when asked about % of player base numbers and the legitimacy of his statement wanted to get back "on topic". I wonder how that belka player i seen a week ago felt with his greyed out icon and popped tank when he loaded in🤔 wonder if he thought the new skills, equipment, and consumables were fair?🙄

If your winrate was high before they implemented the equitable matchmaking update then winning will be very difficult. I only win now if I carry the team and I am in the top three. If I don’t carry the team then we lose. The game is no longer fun.

Due to the terrible changes I will continue not to purchase anything. I usually purchase multiple chests every week. I have purchased none sine the season started. What started as a one off has now become a habit. No more money going your way.

Where were the surveys before all these changes occured asking the customer what they want? Or do they just make changes in a bubble only listening to discord, YouTube, and a couple streamers? If you don’t get feedback from all stakeholders before implementing change then you will fail. Business 101.

@agile forge @shrewd compass where is the cool down perk or equipment for the rotaries that overheat extremely easy that was part of the discussion on the roll out?

#

Honestly, just wish every tank could roll back to the old days with the fire power and armor and people just learn to play and gain skill and no more buffs or nerfs, only nerf that has ever been needed is being able to cap a base to quick if you get a “slow” team that lemon trains one direction. Make it so they can’t cap in the first 5 minutes and if there is 5 tanks or less left the cap option goes away.

**yes I used the term “slow” in place of many other optional words as not offend anyone that is “slow”

I hate to break it to you but the issue with caps primarily isn't losing to them

I haven't been having as much fun since this update came out. Trust me its there but it isn't frequent like last time. Might end up focusing cold war again for the naturally increased accuracy there. I don't like my shots being based on luck.

Ok I don't know if this question has been answered yet.

But are there any plans to rebalance tanks after this change? Some tanks that already weren't the best have been made abysmal after these changes.

ionic flicker
# uncut shard Ok I don't know if this question has been answered yet. But are there any plans...

Yeah im hoping so. Everything feels very wonky. I would even go as far as to increase all tanks accuracy by 25%ish on the move and even somewhere near 50%ish increase with fully closed reticles. One of my big issues with the game since playing is the rng accuracy it could really benefit from a big shift like that in my eyes. I know thats a lot but it would make the game feel like less of a lottery and less of chore to play if that makes sense

It is way better like this. Yes ofc there are some moments where you fully aim and don't hit, so? I don't have an issue with all of that and it is way nicer that the gunhandling is on most tanks so bad again that you can't autoaim hin across 500 meters whilst being on top speed

#

I dont care about coldwar so that is non of my business, but in ww2 this is so much better, this game should not be a just full yolo, lemming train autoaim noob simulator, it should be a tactical arcade tanks game as it has been 5 years ago before 6.0 and coldwar.

#

If you don't want to aim and try to play the game as it is intended then it is your mistake and not the right game for you. Play wot heat maybe when it is out. WG did a big step in the right direction with this update and they just have to pull it through now an keep on improving what they did wrong for the last 5 years

Some of what you said makes no sense to me

"It is way better like this. Yes ofc there are some moments where you fully aim and don't hit, so? I don't have an issue with all of that and it is way nicer that the gunhandling is on most tanks so bad again that you can't autoaim hin across 500 meters whilst being on top speed

How can it be tactical with more rng aiming? To me the arcade style means a heath bar not more rng influence.

And how is missing when fully aimed ok? Youre a good player you know thats cost you games, kills, and xp overall.
WWll just seems extra silly to me right now. Like I get the accuracy on the move shouldn't be up to par with CW but once you get to top tier in WWll some of those are high lvl fully stabilized machines. My reticle shouldn't be approaching the edge of the screen

So, tanks like the s conq, chieftain mk6 and all that stuff still have an insane gun Handling, or for example leopard 1. There are indeed still many tanks that have a very good gunhandling on tier 10. Yes there are less then before buf this is in my opinion not an issue. Why should every tank have a very good accuracy and sniping capabilities? That really makes no sense. Tanks like 60 tp or tds like fv4005 where never meant to have accurate guns in that game. And this just means that you need to close the distance more for these tanks to be effective. That would lead to a more active gameplay for example heavies playing in the city, but player do not really do that most of the time cause they are not use to an active but tactical brawling playstyle in heavy lanes for example, they don't know nothing about angles, they know nothing about trading. Many people just camp more after the update which in some cases yes you should. But players just have to learn where to really go, where the best spots for there tank on the map are and how to really play the game. We just need a middle ground between camping all day or yolo trains. With stuff like this it is more possible because with some thank you can't snipe anymore. And you have to really aim and are not safe for missing some shots due to rng, this makes trading way more important

#

And i don't have an issue with rng as said. Yes there are time where it is frustrating. But there are many times as well where you get insanely lucky all game and just hit everything, and that is the beauty about this. It is not consistent, yes you have to aim longer, can snapshot that easy in most tanks and autoaim is less efficient, this just mean everybody need a bit more skill. And if you make if right, it is just so much better because you have variable results of what is gonna happen, you have to think more about what you wanna do, if you wanna push or not. The only issue atm is the playerbase and the MM just throwing the worst of the worst in my team and just lowering my chances to win for good. Carry every round if possible is just annoying. Rng not that much

Am, I mean that is coldwar which as I said I don't care about, ww2 guns are only capable of shooting up to 720 meters with seeing enemies only up to 550 I believe. So yeah, that is not really and issue in ww2. And as I said the update is not the issue players are. The update is a great start. Ofc many bugs and stuff but the overall intention is really good. Players are just not able to play for some reason. I guess most of them just don't know how to play and what wot has been like 5 years ago before all the fails. They are just not used to really take part in a match

I care cause i want fair games.

Everybody can't though its a severe handicap to new players struggling to just afford new tanks. Its stagnating the growth of the game and discourages new players as soon as they grind to tier 8 they just get blown through

This whole update I can't consider healthy. It had good qualitys like proxy camo being deleted and better map border. But has created vast gaps in tank capability

It is fair. Because everyone can use it. Unfair would be if it was only available for gold. Anybody even new players can farm silver if they wanna use premium Ammo or consumables, it is always up to the player itself. Why would I have disadvantage now because plays don't wanna farm silver or are just at the beginning? I have very tier 10 grinded in ww2. Why would I now not have a small advantage in comparison to new players? Do you not think that playing that much should give you a bit of an advantage not only skill wise?

ionic flicker
winged lily
#

No, that's not the truth, first of all thank that have heat as gold Ammo can't be played full premium pretty much because of heat disadvantages. And for example in a leopard 1 using premium Ammo makes just the most sense to players that care for maximum performance and grind silver to use that. I dont see the issue with that

#

Not using it or farming silver to use it is just ur own fault and disadvantage which is not my problem or the problem of anybody else that farms silver or is good enough to maintain silver whilst using it

While I agree with that sentiment. How is one supposed to get good when it comes to RNG? It's gambling. There is a blatant factor of pure luck involved in every shot. I can see why Dingus dislikes it.

Technically it is not suppose to be RNG but dispersion with the center more likely, but it sure does feel random. But that’s strategic right?

It is not right. They use the most possible viewrange an enemy could Potential have and use that value against your Camouflage. That means that the value use against you will most of the time be higher by about 10 to 50 meters then anybody actually got in the lobby cause there is only a slim Chance that a player is using binos, vents, rations plus has them activated + has a full perked crew with view range + has the higher base viewrange out of the lobby. I can't imagine anybody using that setup on a 420 meters viewrange tank. And even not using crew food will make a hugh difference for these values, because of so many players for whatever reason using fire extinguisher not crew food this gap will be there like I guess 95 percent of the time

I think what dingus is trying to say is. "Its not fun having RNG just whiff your shot entirely because...why not?"

I also think how the dmg system in this game works sucks

#

Tell me. Why does an ATGM that hits my rear fender, and should do. AT MOST. Cosmetic damage. Rip 1300 away from my tank? Cupolas shouldn't just be a magic weak point. I guess in a way it like the realism of warthunder over the HP system here. At least with how it works currently.

You should hit for more depending where your shell lands. Bad take I know but its how I thought it could work

I don’t mind many of these changes, I just feel other changes are now needed because of it. Many tanks need accuracy buffs do be competitive again. Tanks like the Udes 15/16 have horrible accuracy, changed after 6.0, and should be changed back to pre 6.0.

As for light tanks and tanks that generally rely on camo mechanics to be competitive, I just think there should be more bushes on maps. Something more in line with PC. This way they can play their role, but not to the point where lights can drive out in the open and not get spotted as we had before.
I hope I’m making sense on what I’m suggesting.

I just want to thank WG for the 2025 year look back.

It's so nice to remember all the tanks I can't really play anymore because you screwed the playerbase on equipment, not just from playability but from a silver standpoint. At least you could have dropped some equipment vouchers or an op for equipment vouchers. Or done some sales. It's been 4 months and 75 percent of my tanks are still not fully equipped. Pulled everything off the low tiers even. Pulled the consumables as well to save on those per battle.

I enjoyed the variety of tanks I use to be able to switch around in and play. Can't do that so much, so I play less as the year in review shows.

The main difference i can see is you can scroll all 1000 here, rather than having pages. But the search ability (as pigeon mentions) is much faster to use on discord i find.

And i don't say this as a anti-forum way, i use to use the forums a lot. My now head of department and several colleagues knew me when i joined because of our interactions on the forums. I just don't see what the difference in this specific aspect is that causes a "one is better than the other" to it 😅
