I'm to watch where I go because arty, with it's overhead view can't control itself? Nah. And one was deliberate, he turned blue and we killed him. Felt great. 

 

If you go outdoors and it suddenly rains, is it the sky’s fault you got drenched?

So if i accidentally shoot an arty, it was his fault that he was in my way?

yes, always blame the victim for actually playing the game instead of staying in the garage...

 

In post mortem view the other day I watched an EBR 105 playing super erratic at full speed, you know the type of stuff that makes anti-wheeler zealots say that they can't be hit even with the fastest of APCR shells?  at one point he straightened out in order to do a small bunny hop and not either spin out completely, or cartwheel into oblivion, or get shot by the real tanks...

 

M53/55 hit him mid-air for a full penetrating hit.

 

clearly 100% the EBR's fault for playing the game

 

Unfortunately, that is the random BS that just goes on to enrage the anti-artillery players more, while we humble SPG players grit our teeth because we know that was a BS super RNG shot.  I can lead targets like a mad man and put people into the dirt.  But, if you're going to ask me if I can hit weak spots on targets on the move that are jumping through the air, I'm going to laugh and respond with a "Not just no but hell no".

 

I don't think that you're asking for me to defend it or rationalize it.  Truth is, in instances like this, I've got nothing to back the situation.  What I will say is this.  Artillery has problems.  But, and this is my personal feeling, artillery is the culmination of a lot of bad things that are problematic but are a part of all of the other tanks, in the game.  If maps were different, arty wouldn't be as big of a problem.  If funnels didn't exist, arty wouldn't be as big of a problem.  If Sigma values weren't the same, across all tanks, arty wouldn't be as big of a problem.  So on and so forth it goes.  It just so happens that all of the internal and external factors, on individual tanks across the game, all happen to exist within artillery.  Yet, people want arty to be changed, which can't really be done if the issues still remain on other tanks.

 

To your original point, grandtheftankIV was a turd for writing what he did and your response was apt.

Sounds like he went outside and got himself drenched. His fault, per your analogy.

Seriously?  You have 14k MORE games than me, a lesser win rate, and you can't match me in artillery.  You are terrible and really need to stop talking.  28% of your games are at tier 7, which is the ONLY reason why you're above 50%.  25% of your games are at tier 9 with a whopping 48% win rate.  When you get better at this game, come talk to us.  Until then, the kiddy table is that way --->.  See your way out.

Only fools try to compare WR... when their WN8 is pathetic

You have 200 more wn8 than me in almost twice the number of games while playing low tier games THAT PUMP UP YOUR STATS, all while winning less games.  I have stats on my last 4,000 games, all of which crush you into the dirt.  Even your last 1,000 games pale, in comparison.  Again, if it weren't for some of your tanks, you'd be a 47% player with a 1k wn8.  Learn your place, in this world.

You twit, my WN8 is lower than average as I do not buy premium time and rarely, if ever use gold to train my crews. I grind all my tanks from stock using bottom tier guns, and in most cases 50% crews. This inevitably means I start off nearly every grind with a red or orange WN8, and dont start performing at a green level until those crews reach 100%.

 

Know my place? Yeah, scrub, I know my place. Its among the people who start off at an inherent disadvantage to wallet warriors like you, AND STILL DO BETTER THAN YOU in the long run.

 

Whats your excuse for being a garbage player?
