Gold farming by WG.

Lee3452's Photo Lee3452 01 Jul 2012

Since new patch the module damage and crew kills have soared. Is it WG'S crave for money, as the only way around this is to spend gold on large repair or large med kits. In every game I've played this morning I have lost my gun, this is then followed by detracking and ammunition hit. This may be a free to play game but after each patch its pushing more towards having to pay to get a reasonable game without being handicapped for most of the game. I already pay for premium for this reason.

If you enemy has the Deadeye perk. He can shoot out your modules and crew faster than without the Deadeye perk.

From wiki:
This perk increases the chance to critically damage enemy vehicle modules and crew with AP and APCR shells by 3%. It does not work with HE shells.

If combined with the Eagle Eye perk, you'll be able to tell how well this perk is working.

Whoooa STOP! This game is meant to be as realistic as possible, and everyone asked for it. There you got it. In reality most shots would disable the thing they hit so its in the game now :Smile_Default: Nobody makes you buy premium and no one is handicapping you in it. Play if you like and if not dont make unnecessary threads on the forum :Smile_sceptic:

  • Nope... dont recall a big clamour for "kill me easily please"
  • See 1 above..
  • correct.. but...
  • you are seriously handicapped if you dont.. 50% gain?
  • its called feedback...

-credit nerf by reducing credit multiplicator (less income)
-credit nerf by increasing repair cost
-credit nerf by replacing tanks with crap that earns significantly less (T34->M103, IS-4 -> IS-8)
-credit nerf by adding magic gun mantlets (KV and Sherman ding tier 10 guns, lots of expensive shells disappear)
-credit nerf by increasing 0-crits (huge ammo bill)
-credit nerf by adding parts to the tanks that cannot be penetrated (tier 10 guns fail to pen non-angled lower plate of VK36, KV-3, Su-152)
-credit nerf by making HE useless (12 damage for hitting cupola/engine with a 900 credit shell ???)
-credit nerf by making ammo more expensive (HE shell cost 600 -> 900)
-credit nerf by decreasing shell normalization (way more bounces, significantly higher ammo bill)
-credit nerf by increasing arty damage (people that get killed by arty earn less, or even nothing at all)
-credit nerf by increasing module damage (you need more repair kits)
-credit nerf by replacing all tier 9 heavies with tanks that lack armor and get hammered in random battles (3x Tier6 > 1x IS-8)
-credit nerf by making poor tier 6 and tier 7 tanks face impenetrable T-59s

new in 7.4:
-credit nerf by further increasing arty damage
-credit nerf by increasing module damage in general (you need to use more repkits, damaged gun means you will have a higher ammo bill due to inaccuracy)
-credit nerf by increasing crew damage (you need to use more medkits)
-credit nerf by increasing fires (you need to use more extinguishers and repkits)

and thats only the tip of the iceberg mnap iufbsodi u ye keep negrepping me u fuggers hgildzhüp

Everything about this game is geared towards making money, and due to the large amount of money it has reportedly made for its owners, I suspect many titles in the future will follow in the same mould.

If your child downloads a new, free game, make sure you hide your credit card.

Cant say anything about it, its tanks dude.. Tanks can brake, you know, if you got hit by 130 mm ... its normal but annoying..This is how it should be at start..  alert about nothing...

My gaming group now call fires and multi module/crew hits ( especially gun/gunner/turret/ammorack/loader )  " begging bowl " hits

eg: " I was taking apart an IS4 he was on 30% I was on 80% then I received a begging bowl hit and died shortly after"

you can buy the large med kit for 50 g,but dont ever use it(it gets it's passive the whole time even if you use it,but if you dont use it you ll have it the next match also,and you can have it 4ever  )
,it lowers the dead eye perk,so 5% protection - 3 % gives you around 2% more protection for your crew.......put it on tanks you like to play,i then never have any problems with crew members dying or such things,but i m annoyed with all those module damages.......

HE damage was changed.

You willl find that sentence repeated many times until every person has been told individually. What they should do is release patch notes with there patches so we all have access to this information
