He’s leaving and tells why.

^ and inside that prize box you will find this also. You get another Premium German tank ( so, that makes 3 premium tanks for ( tier 3/4 I think ?) You can do things with those other objects that earn you things.
 
OK, here's that smaller german tank. ^ And, in the snow that have Chuck Norris, walking around. Which kinda creepy, because the music they are playing is totally surreal calm music from like Tangerine Dream like music, xmas style, from beyond the gray. I have to admit it kinda nice sounding like "tangerine dream elevator music" Which is totally out of text, and context with "Chuck Norris walking and strutting around. :LOL:

And, the Super Hellcat. Now, notice this: focus your eyes on the equipment boxes. What do you see ? Yes, you see that New Categorized Equipment box. Well, now, what you will soon realize is that WG, ( For those of us who have been away for a long while ) has totally changed, a wrecked the equipment system as you remember it !! Yes, that's right.

Tier I get's no equipment boxes period.
Tier II get's 1 I think
Tier 3 gets 2 boxes only.
Tier 4-10 get the usual 3 boxes that you used to know.

However, That first box up there is special. It breaks down by categories.
4 categories:
Survivability
Fire Power
Mobility
Scouting (view I believe)

That first box is were all the bonuses are. You have to decide what you're going to put in there and why ? Whether it's regular or special equipment. (and the special equipment is not free. Those bonus dollars are hard, and take much to to earn at 5-7K a pop)
But, if you put standard equipment in that "box" you get the faster, better, effect with a higher % boost.

Ex: Fan, Gun Rammer, Spall Liner, etc.

So, now you have a whole new set of headaches to figure around on setting each of these tanks up. { And, I bet someone has a special chart for which configuration of equipment does what for certain tanks the best ? And, I'm betting we all know who that is don't we ?"

To understand further, you'll need to go look at this for yourself, to understand what I'm talking about when you click behind that box what pops up.

But, there's more: Wargaming always looks for a Money Grab$, and they did with these boxes, and new equipment. Here's how: WG sent lot's for you former equipment to the DEPOT. However, not all of it. And, the former equipment you previous had installed on the higher tier vehicles is still installed on those vehicles.

So, guess what ? You know have to spend 10 gold on each of those 3 equipment boxes to "rearrange all of those equipment pieces to their new appropriate boxes to reconfigure." If you look in your depot, WG only gives you 1 DEMOUNTING KIT. You hear right. Only 1 demounting kit. So, someone like me who has 140 something tanks, well do the math.

The only other way to get Demounting kits, would to to play your ASS off to try and score those demounting kits, or else you're going to have to pony up Gold to de-mount your equipment.

See, even when WG gives you something, WG take it back from you.

So, just find a tank, and either play it with your old equipment line up that's already in there, or to score a demount kit? Or, you might get lucky and your FAN was fortunately still installed on the far LEFT box from the very beginning ? Or, whether it was a TD, HT, MT, SPG or what have you, and it "fell into place by accident ?"

So, Played 1 battle, with the IS-6. I was a win. I placed 3-4 on the upper list,,, Not bad for not playing in a year ugh ?

And, the mods.... ASLAINS took me forever to reinstall everything.. Sheeeez. I don't know what's going on with that ? WG is not letting you load anymore from inside the game, like they were doing? I had to bring it in from the outside, and drag it into my files on my computer..

Don't know what the deal is ?

PS.. THAT ALSO INCLUDES CAMO NETS AND BINOCS [ I kid you not ! ]

So, I still don't fully know what's all going down over there yet ? I spent too much time trying to get Aslains set up, figuring out the equipment boxes ( I still think there's more to it than meets the eye, you have to read to forums, and chat with some players maybe? or learn the hard way ?)

Maybe, I'll pop in tomorrow and try a few games. I mean they gave 10 free day of premium,, so, when that runs out,, I'll stop there, cause, I'm not spending anything$.

I'm going try to fire War Thunder up for a few games too,, after some things around the place to do tomorrow.
 
Yes, I know.

And, at the same time, their cheesiness still prevails. With those tactics of taking money from players bit by bit.

Don’t worry I want get sucked in. I don’t have real time for it anymore like I used to, it’s not like I’m grinding for anything either.
 

General overview from the WG Wiki. And, no this is not all you need to know, another WG understatement.


This was given to me by a player in Gen Chat. You can change the various Tiers at the top of the bar, and read the combinations of equipment per tank and class. There is a ledger of what the abberv. mean.

I also have feeling, there is an even more indept, chart that will explain much more about the equipment combinations about each tank even better.

I played a few more games, and I noticed some serious invisa-tanks back in the game again. When I played some Tier 8's and we ran up against some tier X's Also, the amount of Gold Spam was furious. ( and unnecessary )

Over the few remaining 8 days I will try Low tiers ( where the equipment boxes are not category specific ) like tier 4. then I will make a jump up to tier 10, during more prime time hours, and take a drive up to tier X in a few vehicles to see what's cooking there ?

One thing I can tell you is that, I used to feel like I did more damage back in the day, however, I'm placing still up toward as high on the list, with the except of the last 2 battles tonight, when the MM slammed me up against tier X's in my tier 8. But, I don't have the new equipment down yet, and these are new maps, and view ranges have been changed, god knows what else WG has done to the pile of rubble ?

God only knows what they have done to Ships ?
 
Well, last night was at the tanks again.

pssst... yea, the WG MM hasn't changed a bit. But, of course. Couple of losses, and 1 Draw, with only 1 win. Yep, nothing changed there. "Check" And, the server population only barley got above around 25k briefly, ( I mean that was for a Xmas period ), it' doesn't hold long. It drops soon down to around 20K,, then to about 18 K,,,, then 17K,, 16K,,, then around 11pm 14K, then suddenly 10K,,, God only knows how far and fast it drops after that ? No tellin ? I went to bed.

Very bad teams were out, RNG trolled the tier 7 and 9 arty I played. I think it would have improved if I had set up the new equipment lay out with IRM in the special cat box, with gun rammer, ( and I don't know how effective camo net is anymore in the game ? ) the comments on the forum said they were useless now. Even for arty. Case, in point I was one shot in both my arties in both games with 100% camo skills, paint, and with the net !!! That had never happened before in the older version !! And, I was running food, consumables on both arties.

So, the other tanks are far more powerful now, spotting arties out with that powerful vision equipment now. Yea, things have change for arties for sure. There must be a way to counter it ? But, the net won't do it anymore. Maybe, that new exhaust system that boosts the camo rating ?

That equipment is making these tanks overpowered in different levels in different characteristics.

Anyway,,,,, The Gen chat.

Most of those assholes seem to be "somewhat gone" However, there is a new type of troll over there. It's a slow motion/passive tranquil troll. It slowly types non sensical short sentences, gibberish, and it does not get offended when people insult it, or tell it to shut up etc. A new trolling tactic.

But, most of the trash has seemly left, don't be fooled; there are still Trump supporters laden in the background. Someone, will say something to get people started, and before you know it 8 Trumpanzee will come swinging out of the rafters before you know it. Then, again this time, about 5, or more Biden supporters came out of now where strangely this time. That is unlike last time, where you were out numbered 1 or 2 : to about 8 So, the ratio has changed better than before.

someone mentioned something, and I was surprised how many people where there with me to shut them down. Boy, did those Trumpers cry like babies when they had a fair fight,, They got mad and cried, "Stop making fun of our Trump, it's not true, the media lies, it was stolen from us! You libs stole it from us!" The 4 other guys in there with me just poured the SALT all down on them. ;)
