  2. Gratz! I will not play although, cause I use phones with small screens and do not like tablets, but would like to have 7 players randoms :)

    Coming back to my frustration with WoT (long whining post here - http://overlord-wot.blogspot.com/2014/05/wot-public-test-of-091.html :) ), I think that it is also caused by the fact that I do not play for XP. I just want to have a few nice battles and they are unfortuantely really rare. Realised that when bought KT not long ago and get quite often in battles against tier X. Playing them in KT is there really pain, much worse then in Persh or even T32. While I was caring about getting most possible XP it wouldnt be so annoying cause this battles can give nice XP. Alas, they give no fun, when you must all the time avoid all those OP X tier monsters with autoloaders and mega alpha guns. Tier VIII is IMO much worse to play then in times when there were only IS7, Maus, T-30 and AMX-50B as X tiers.

    1. I agree on the t8 hvy problem. Against t10 heavies and meds they can be effective to a degree, if you stay in the 2nd line and play a support role. But the moment t10 TDs get into the mix its just frustrating.
