Today I played 51 games across my 19 tanks.... 33 separate games I was either ammo racked or lit on fire.... In some of those games I had chains where I was shot by a much lower tier tank and ammo racked for minor damage.. repaired my ammo rack, then next shot lights me on fire, then ammo racked again.... I am sorry but this is just ridiculous... And apparently I am not the only person experiencing this problem today. It is my belief that Wargaming has stealthily screwed with the %'s to increase the purchase of gold equipment.
So absolutely frustrated right now....

You must have terrible luck to be torched/racked 33 times out of 51... Were you playing with the T-44, Type 59 or the German tanks?

I do have a T-54, Lowe, Tiger 2, E-75, Most of the French tanks, German TDs up to Jagpanther, American Heavies up to T32 + T34, and other assorted tanks... pretty even spread among my tank choices.. and yes stupidly high chance of fire and ammo racks in both the T-54 and the E-75 to the point where they are almost unplayable.

Always hate it when I get tracked in the open then repair my tracks just to have my ammo rack damaged on the next shot.

Wouldn't be the first time that the Devs "adjusted" the actual stats of the vehicles/weapons in the gaming code without telling the players. And it won't be the last...

Yeah I get this sort of thing happening occasionally. There has to be more to it than just dumb luck as the endless crits & crew death and/or fires you suddenly start suffering can not be the RNG.
With my tinfoil hat on I suspect it is WG playing silly buggers with us but I cannot fathom why they would do so.
Still, a few weeks ago I suffered through two days of the first hit in nearly every battle causing some kind of module/crew damage. It got so bad I was actually surprised whenever a hit only did damage to my hp.
Frustrating but it will end is my experience.

your conclusion is absolutely right ! they want to maximize their profit
