Just last night I had a battle on Mines where the only tanks that tried to stop me on the hill were an AMX 13 75 and a Panther, and I was on the hill by myself for the rest of the battle.

7 kills, AMX 13 90, E100, ST1, M103, ARL 44, SU-14 and KV-2.

2641 xp, doubled to 5282. Over 100k credits. Spent about 40k in ammo and repairs.

I'll add the replay later. It wasn't even the best play I had, as I bounced several shots off the E100, and others, that would've taken it out had I aimed better.

Moral of the story: Don't leave a Patton alone in an advantageous position. No matter how well he's shooting.

Especially when the Patton has high ground, the gun depression is CRAZY on that tank and is one of its best features.
Good tank the M46.

On another note, why does everyone use mediafire links for posting relays instead of just... posting the replay directly?

I'd have it up but I'm at work posting from my phone.

Do you mean "Youtube" replays?

Youtube would require you to record the replay using an outside party tool (fraps) and is usually a much lower quality.

The media fire game links allows for full game replay, you watch it how you actually play the game.

Patton is a really nice tank, have lots of fun games with it, though never in that xp range, nice going!

[DarthVicious]

That explains some things. I'll just post the replay right here.Yeah, that's an insane amount of xp. Took the record from my Batchats epic 8-kill battle with like 2140 or something. Would've been my ace tanker badge too, no doubt, if I didn't have it already. I got lucky my arty didn't kill me by accident at the start too LOL.

Didn't work. Says I'm not allowed to upload files of that type. Are we not allowed to straight-up attach the replay file itself?

EDIT: Nevermind, it's 867k, the limit is 500k. Anyone know another way?

Media fire took me all of a minute to set up the account and its free.

There you go fellas. Also edited OP to reflect actual events I couldn't recall, like... I didn't kill that IS-4 but thought I did... etc.

You sir are clearly doing it right!

[DarthVicious]

Got two more for you guys. Figured it'd apply in this thread more than anywhere else, with the introduction of the M48A1 I see a lot of people selling this tank. Tsk Tsk Tsk. I sold my T28 and some other money pits I had laying around to buy my M48 *cough* T-50-2 *cough*

Two battles back to back right as doubles reset.

Only managed to play one game in my Patton since the update and I must say that it was one of my best games. First battle against t62's, there was a platoon of 3... I killed 2 of them from around 600 and 1000 health. The 1000 health one was one on one. I just managed to land 2 free hits without retaliation thanks to hills and peaking/ducking at the right time. No replay though, sorry guys. Had 2 other kills in that game too (Lowe and a Pershing).

[Ice_King]

I've been struggling hard since the patch. My Win% has dropped like 8%.

Keep getting Attacker of Prokhorovka is one problem.

[conkeror]

Im still kinda rusty coming back to the game with a crappy comp (always load the screen late) and I scored many good games, 3 to 5 kills aint no big surprise. When I missed the 6th kill my buddy even went "aww man" on a you coulda done better tone, lol. So i'd say yeah it's still awesome. Not OP but really nice to drive.

Prohkorovka Assault isn't too bad actually. It's a problem for my Foch155 more than my Patton. I take my Patton to the south tracks and peekaboo with the hill campers, and once that is clear I get up on them and use the gun depression to take out the guys on the other side.

The problem is related to my Sig. Noone has the balls to push, or take hits.
