They prepare you for the frustration

I bought back the E75, great tank, much better now than when they first added it.

yeah..E75 is better now but my win rate is still bad with this tank, still not sure how to play this tank, brawler or sniper.

maybe someday we from TPU will make our own clan..

Yes, the E75 is a difficult one, in my opinion if you use it as a sniper you are not getting the most out of it, as a brawler it's OK but from my experience can often be beaten by such as the M103 and even sometimes the IS8 simply because they are more manouverable, I think the best balance is as a 2nd line brawler, going in behind a good medium tank point attack, clearing the enemy, with a little support around it it can be devastating.

me personally.... I prefer the M103 of the Tier 9's, only because it suits my play style better.

Caved in and free exp'ed my VKP. It is now a pretty decent sniping tank, all its disadvantages (big fat ass, low acceleration, non existent armour) are negated by my preferred engagement distance (300+m). Went back to PzIV a bit, the training I received from driving the landwhale allowed me to average about 15k credits for the past 5 games.

Something unexpected that happened in a game.

agent's World of Tanks SU-100 video 1 - YouTub...

And a bit of fun, trying to learn Youtube uploading.

I did some Beta testing for WoW, I could not get on with it personally.

Phew.

Yay!

My first 1k+ xp game!



Maintenance started just after the game, so didn't get shots of endgame screen.

OK, whats the highest xp people have earned in a single battle WITHOUT premium? I don't expect evidence..... honesty will do! Although you can do a screenie of your stats page as I think it shows highest xp (on the right hand side) and does not take into account premium accounts.

972 with my best tank, Pz IV.

Finally managed to get enough money for Tiger P, time to have some fun!

My SU-122-54 (stock for now) after changing fire at distance with an E-50M.
As you see I'm penetrated everywhere...

@Tatty. below all my tanks with XP>2000 (with Premium unfortunately).

So in theory, divide by 3 then multiply by 2 and that should give you a non premium figure based on 1.5x for a premium account?

[burebista]

Yep.

This is still my best game XP-wise.

I rarely use a premium account, and with silver rounds only (back when they cost gold) my max XP per battle is a tie between my Tiger II and my Lowe both with 2392 XP. I can post a screenshot of my service record if you want since i don't have any screenshot of the actual battles, but there it only shows the Lowe. It seems nobody though 2 tanks could share the same max battle XP.


EDIT: it seems there was a more recent battle (which i don't seem to remember) where the Lowe scored 2392, previously the tie was at 2304.

I will check mine when I get home and post it up here ( providing mine is not the worst! )

We will need to take to account of number of games played, since that you are more likely to get lucky if you have 10000 games compared to, say, 100

[Tatty_One]

Mine is 2,113 without premium, it was using the SU14, crude..... but effective!

[entropy13]

In terms of AVERAGE XP though, it's my Tier X IS-7 (659) slightly pipping my Tier V Churchill III (647).

[KingPing]

Who here has a T34 Premium?

if so, do you like it?, whats the average income?

I really like the T29, T30 (TD), T34 heavy tanks. T29 is out of question, but from a fun point of view which do you think is better.

[xenocide]

I actually caved to my friends and started playing this the other day, decided to focus on American Medium and Tank Destroyers. Holy crap is the T18 a beast, I'm averaging like 4+ kills a match with it lol. So far I'm only up to Tier 3, but I have everything set to unlock Tier 4. The game's not too bad, I have at least had some fun with it.

I'm getting roughly the same credits with the T26E4 than others do with the T34, just behind by 1k or so, on average. Considering their gold price difference...

Yeah, the T18 is great, I still have it, got 100% crew and complete modules with it for a free XP grind.

I have it for "free". I worked hard on it and I guess I deserved it as a gift from WG.
It is still a formidable tank for it's tier but was nerfed compared with original T34.
It makes credits and this is all I need.
You need to take care of his hull (as almost any US tank) and pump some shells with that 120 mm gun. MM is not so friendly (you can easily see Tier 10 games but you can penetrate anything in this game).

Tier 4 is where my enjoyment diminished a bit, but yes Tier's 2 and 3 are great on the US TD line.
