World Of Tanks: Steel Hunt - Winning With A Bugged Screen!

How can this happen!? Have I lost TOTAL FAITH in the WoT community? Or is it my fault I just kick so much ass? (Just kidding ofcourse!)

Seirously though, I should've been somewhere down the bottom, but nope. I won.

M4A1 Revalorisé - Grab It While You Can

This tank is a beauty. Not only by looks, but by performance as well.



As you can see, this tank has a very nice gun.
I've always compared it to the T-34-3's 122mm gun, since they're both prem mediums with 390 alpha damage on tier 8.


As you can see, the Revalorisé gun has better stats all across the board. The only drawback it pretty much has, is the lower caliber, which decreases the amount of spots you can overmatch. However, it increases your stealthyness, which for the Revalorisé, is a good thing, since this tank doesn't have any armor.

The tank behaves exactly like you'd expect from a sherman. Nice and mobile, but not super fast or anything. But it does it's job as a medium very good.
Even the aim on the move is exactly like you'd expect from a Sherman. And that's pretty impressive, considering this is a 390 alpha gun with a very nice aim on the move. (Obviously a bit less accurate on the move than other shermans, but for a 390 alpha gun, still very impressive aim on the move.)

It's in the EU Premium Shop for 20 more days.
You'll get an extra garage slot, and some useless gold (3750) so that WG can increase the price to 40 euros. However, considering 2500 gold is worth about 10 euros, and thus you get 3750 gold, which is worth about 15 euros, it's not a bad price considering the T-34-3 costs about 40 euros as well, However, other tier 8 prem meds cost about 30 euros on about average. Nevertheless, it would've been better to also have an option to buy the tank without any extra gold like they did with the M4 Improved.

Still a neat moneymaker with very cheap shell price of 580. Compare that to the shell price of the T-34-3, 1025, and it's about half the price, for the same damage, more pen, more accuracy, better aiming time and reload. Definately worth it!
That's why I've asily gotten a 60k profit just by doing about 2k+ damage

Over all, if you like Shermans, i'd definately give this baby a try.
The only drawback it may have compared to other shermans, is that it doesn't have as good gun depression as the other Shermans. Bu it still beats the T-34-3.

World Of Tanks - Roy's Replays (R&R): Ep 6

Episode 6 of R&R is up. Featuring: Low tiers!
Again, still took me a while because of Fallout 4 consuming my life. ;)

The next R&R will feature replays that were sent in on my Facebook page.

A Tale Of Teams - ERROR TEAM NOT FOUND

ERROR TEAM NOT FOUND!

We all have it, and sadly enough, a bit too many times if I may say so.
And in the meantime, you manage to carry so much for your team that you just can't believe they managed to lose with all the things you did for them.

Sit back and enjoy, or cry, or cringe, or whatever else you'd want to do, and see my teams doing what they do best. :)

Enjoy in the meanwhile, more videos to come.

Road To Excellence: Caernarvon: Allround Performance

A new video is up, again the RTE.
Sorry that it took so long, been having some personal problems in real life and I'm a bit distracted by some other games.

But since the new update is closeby, I will probably end up recording tons of new content in the near future.

In the meantime: In this RTE episode the Caernarvon is shown shining and thriving in it's rightious glory! For real though, this tank kicks ass. It is in my opinion probably the best tier 8 heavy tank.
So basically, it's allround performance is being shown here in 3 awesome replays.

Please enjoy!

Road To Excellence: Caernarvon: Troll Armor

A new Road To Excellence! More of the Caernarvon!
See the troll armor in action, together with the tracks that omnomnomnom all the damage...

These are basically two examples of how much this thing can troll with it's armor.

Road To Excellence: Caernarvon: Carrying In Tier 9

A new video is up! A new RTE video, featuring the almighty Caernarvon!


Basically showing how this machine manages to thrive in tier 9, obviously thanks to it's reliable gun, mixed with it's trollish armor and decent mobility.




Stay tuned for more videos to come about the Caernarvon!

Maus tank in Spore!

I was a bit bored today, so I decided to play some Spore, which is a very good game, though it only really shines in the Space Age at the end.
But I decided to have some fun when the game asked me to make a land vehicle.
So I made a Maus!

I must say, it looks pretty accurate. I think I should maybe make an improved version and add a few details like the gun mantlet. But all in all, I'm very happy with the first attempt! xD

Good Morning! (3-10-2015)

So 2 days ago the Armored Warfare open beta early headstart for the beta testers started.
I didn't really have a lot of time to write anything about it yet, since I was busy playing WoT and AW later on the day, and I had to go to bed earlier to go to work the next day...

...which ofcourse lead me to being too tired to play anything at all after work... So I kinda got to bed earlier and woke up pretty early today.

So I've basically grinded the 110, and bought it... But before actually being able to buy it I obviously had to grind some extra credits. That's where my 59-Patton came in handy. However, I've been having the worst teams, combined with worst luck imaginable, giving me a huge losing streak.
Oddly enough, my KanonenJagdPanzer kept winning, no matter what...
Then I found out I was playing on EU2, and quickly enough, BOOM! The good battles in the 59-Patton appeared as I was playing on EU1.

Still, I haven't really been able to fully equip my 110 and
I still need to free-exp the gun, and buy it, AND put a Vertical Stabilizer on it, which is 600k.
Ironically enough, consumables are priced off, but equipment isn't.
It would be ideal if it would be the other way around, since I have a huge load of premium consumables in my depot, which are worth like 600k all together... Guess I have to wait...

Anyhow, some posts about AW are coming up.. Not sure if I should post them here or on my gaming blog.. Or make a seperate Armored Warfare block all on itself... Probably the last.

PS: Have some cool YouTube videos planned, including AW, a review for the Caernervon, and maybe even the Chinese IS-2.

World Of Tanks - Roy's Replays (R&R): Ep 5

Episode 5 is here, with some stronk fun to support it.



Today's video brings you the following:
  • A troll shot on the move shot with a KV-2
  • Some trolling with the E-25 (Huehuehuehue)
  • A nice medium game in the FV4202
  • Sniping and scouting with the KanonenJagdPanzer
  • Being OP in the O-I Experimental.
The last one though... The OPness of the O-I Experimental... There's probably more where that came from in the future...
Anyhows, play it while it's still OP!

59-Patton: Personal Thought...

So I've played two battles that were kinda ok, but my team kinda sucked without reasoning... And then this happened...




Collector’s Gem of the Week: 59-Patton

She's a beauty!
Haven't been able to try it out yet, since I lack the credits to put my wanted equipment on it. But it looks promising from what i've seen.


From what i've heard the mobility is average at best, good armor and an average gun, AND good gun depression! (Hence the Patton turret)

The pack costs €49,99 and contains the following:

  • 4.500 Gold (Worth about €18)
  • 30 days of premium account (Worth €10)
  • A garage slot
  • 59-Patton tier 8 Chinese Medium tank
Calculated with everything included, for the tank itself is worth €22. Which is a very nice price for a tier 8 tank.

I think the main weak point will be the somewhat sluggish mobility and the 173 pen with 0.38 accuracy that can let you down at moments.

The main selling point will probably be the good armor (ignoring the weakspot on the turret) together with the gun depression.

Make your choice, and I hope you will enjoy playing or destroying this tank!


http://worldoftanks.eu/en/news/pc-browser/premium/premshop-collector-gem-59patton/

Update: Tried it out now. The tank isn't even that sluggish, and the traverse is awesome! Definately drives better than I expected! I can imagine myself having a lot of fun in this machine!

Road To Excellence: IS-4: (Side) Armor

It's time for a new Road To Excellence video!

Took some time to release this one, as I was busy with grinding the Conqueror... Which I have in my garage now, meaning I have my Mark Of Excellence on it aswell.
Which also means I am gtoing to make a review for the Caernervon, together with a couple of Road To Excellence videos to go with it.



Meanwhile I hope you enjoy this one, it's not very long, but damn, the side armor on the IS-4 is so great.. It's just such a waste when a not-so-skilled player just can't deal with you and decides to throw skilled play out of the window with premium ammo.

Collector’s Gem of the Week: Pz.Kpfw. B2 740 (f)

This week's Gem of the Week is the Pz.Kpfw. B2 740 (f)


Price: € 49,99
It comes with the following:

  • 14,500 gold (The same amount of gold you would get in a normal € 49,99 bundle)
  • A Free Garage Slot
  • Pz.Kpfw. B2 740 (f)
It's basically like buying a regular 14,500 gold bundle, but with the tank and slot as extra. So definately worth it if you're low on gold and need a fun new tank

Important basic info:
Country: Germany
Type: Heavy Tank
Tier: 4
Matchmaking: Will only get in tier 4 matches

Crew:

  • Commander (Gunner, Loader)
  • Driver
  • Radio Operator
  • Radio Operator
The crew layout if a bit weird, having no actual Gunner and Loader, and 2 Radio Ops, meaning it isn't the best crew trainer, unless you want to train the Radio Operator of your Maus and E-100. (Or two other German Heavy Tank Radio Operators)

It still is a very fun tank, and probably one of the first real "Seal Club" tanks I had. Especially back in the day when there were no French and British tanks. It dominated back then. It still can, but you have competition from other armored tanks like the AMX 40, B1, Matilda and Valentine. Not to mention a lot of tanks with higher penetration values driving around in tier 4 nowadays.

But it still is a very capable tank, and compared to the B1, it feels much more mobile because of it's faster traverse speed. It also has a better turret traverse speed.
It's armor is just great, and together with the decent mobility, it can maneuver quickly and do stuff like defending the base in time, or cancel any fast tanks trying to circle you way easier.

The gun has slightly weaker stats (Except for Aiming Time) than the B1 however, most hurtful being it's penetration., but the gun is still capable, especially since it only sees it's own tier, making the worse gun stats barable.

All in all I would say this is one great tank to play for fun, since it has the best matchmaking it can get, great armor, making you able to troll enemies, and an average gun to just kick ass with as long as you stay alive long enough by using your armor.

Only draw back is that you NEED to shoot premium ammo at tanks like the Matilda, since it has no spot it can penetrate, unless you pen the engine deck from a weird angle. Premium ammo is also adviced for other more armored tanks.

Road To Excellence: IS-4: Epic 7884 Damge!

Just released a new Road To Excellence video.
Platooned up with BIG_ONE_R in his IS-7, we managed to push the east flank on Erlenberg, slaughtering everything in our path.
With only a single Tier 10 tank in our way at the east flank, as the other tier 10 tank on their team is on the other flank, we eventually manage to conquer the entire map by slowly heading towards the west flank and slowly start to defend the middle base.
Sadly enough for BIG_ONE_R, he didn't manage to survive in the match and left me for cleanup.
This lead me into beating everything in my path.
A big shame that the last enemy, the CDC, suicided himself into the water, not granting me my seventh kill.

Overall, this match shows what a great potential the IS-4 has as an allround heavy tank, with good allround stats, being there as an unstoppable force against all the enemy tanks that were left.

Enjoy!
