    Container Project to Learn Reward Probabilities

    That list was was ahead of average in terms of Crystal payout that is for sure. Just by way of conversation, to a newer player like me all that matters is if a paint looks good or not. There's no sense of - hierarchy I guess you can call it - in paints. It never made sense to me that some garage paints cost 50 times as much as others. :) Nice rewards but mostly nice report organization. What a bro. :) And that explains that. If you want a paint the containers are an excellent way to get it. Usually. The odds no paints at all in 50 containers is like 1.2%. :( Pedro really puts a lot of effort into his reports doesn't he gang? Always attractive. And Score! on the paints eh? As for me, I have opened only 20 War containers so far. Two accounts needed more cash for the recent 50% off sale. For once my Paint-happy account got cash instead. :) 10 of the 20 paid cash so I made my sales.

    Let's Discuss Smoky!

    goku at your rank you are seeing considerable benefit to your 10/10 upgrades. (So well done on that). But at higher ranks no longer has that kind of edge. Smoky can still be effective but it is not the beast you see now. :) Do you have the alterations? I use one or the other mostly +impact. Titan / Smoky + impact is still a beast at LtGen. I hardly ever the plain unaltered Smoky anymore.

    Which camouflage paints are good?

    The only effective camo is the one that removes the big glowing red or blue bar hovering over your tank.
  4. Isida trains are generally what people cite if they make a case that Isida is OP. No doubt Isida trains can be powerful but at the same time they are fun to bust up. :) Healers healing healers is something yo see in any game that has a healer type. It is just going to happen. But when it does the rest of the team isn't getting healing. So using this technique does come at some cost. And Isidas do run out of energy. Overall I think the complaints overstate the reality.

    Let's Discuss Striker!

    Since I'd never seen that before the answer is once. But the post I responded to does have a point. You will see Strikers on Massacre more often than other maps. Have you ever seen three on one team? That is why it was memorable/ Side note: Every time I run across a striker on the other team it always seems to want to duel striker-to-striker. :)

    Let's Discuss Striker!

    haha I played on Massacre the other day with my Striker. There were three Strikers on the other team. I've never seen that many Strikers in one game before.

    Competitive Games vs. Blowout Games

    Now that the War event is over it seems like we are back to boring blowout after blowout. There is usually only 1 or 2 games of each mode that aare of a good rank bracket and a re competitive. And these games are always full because everyone is trying to join them. This is more important than a Juggernaught mode.

    Your Opinion about tanki

    WEll the War event is over. TO company ripped me off for 32 Containers I earned. S-u-u-u-uu-r-e TO. Your software NEVER is buggy. [cough black rain cough]. It can]t pssibly be an error on your end. So we are back to playing TO for its own mmerits. Lopsided blowout other team leaves. Lopsided blowout you leave. Lopsided blowout you leave. Fish in barrel game for magnums leave. Fish in barrel game for magnums leave. Fun game. [how'd that hapen] Lopsided blowout other team leaves. Fish in barrel game for magnums leave. Lopsided blowout you leave.Lopsided blowout you leave.Lopsided blowout you leave. And so on. Meanwhile instead of doping anything about Magnum, or giving turrets like Vulcan and Striker decent alterations, or finishing the HTML5 project, or the MM project ... we get this Juggernaught joke. AS if magnum players will want a mere Juggernaught instead of their magnum. So after a week or so of being impressed with them trying the War event I am back to everyday TO opinion: A semi-professional company in over their head careering from half-finished idea to half-finished idea instead of attending to the fundamentals.
  9. Trends seen in mundane unremarkable players, yep. Striker, no need to turn the turret? What are you smoking? You haven't had fun until you've circle strafed a heavy hull to death in your Vulcan / Wasp. lol

    The War Ends!

    Pick any one of 3 of 4 teams at the start, get that wrong, and no amount of "effort" gets you the paint. Hindsight is always so 20/20. I agree the waving flag was a bit of a letdown. Maybe if the wind-ripple effect was more pronounced it'd be satisfying. OTOH, meh. I didn't play for the paint.
  11. LittleWillie

    Ricochet, Hammer or Smoky?

    wolv and sensei sum it all up, imo. I'd just add buy what is fun for you. I play vulcan / wasp for that reason. When it's fun you find a way to make it work. :) I never played vulcan / viking but LW is straight smoky / viking. I think it is fun but it is not different enough from Thunder. Unless you specifically want to be able to use the +impact ammo alteration. Hammer and Rico both will generally be better for both different game 'feel' and move variety of options in your garage.
  12. I don't look to play Pro battles because every time I do I find Poly CP in the CP section and nothing else. In tCTF it is mostly Parkour or BP/XP stuff with the rest mostly Sandbox. It is all variants I do not play, or some extremely limited simple scenario for grinding like Poly CP. Containers have given me a lot of Pro access lately but I rarely think to look. Maybe this will change if/when matchmaking comes out. Then everyone can use the 'pro' section. maybe then these no drug choices can be rel;ied to exist.

    International Women's Day

    Randomness often does not seem random. :) Was just asked, "gold was?" Yes.

    International Women's Day

    The battle fund size has no effect on a GB dropping or not. The fact a GB just dropped has no effect on if a GB will drop or not. Asking "Gold was?" in chat is a waste of 9 keystrokes. That is why I always answer "yes". heh

    Container Project to Learn Reward Probabilities

    OK caught up to this point. I am going to keep collecting for awhile until the War rush seems to be over. I've only opened 5 so far. One account is short funds for the upcoming sale. So I will open some of its containers to try to raise the 40k or so I need. A PA to run on double funds day would be nice. Then I will keep the rest in reserve until the next account needs a boost. Try to keep PA periods on different accounts form overlapping to much

    International Women's Day

    50% discount on Paints! That is what I would be buying this sale to thank TO for creating the War event. Except TO is not crediting me with 32 Containers I earned according to the rules. So Once again TO does something good, then undoes it all by another act of failure. My policy of no financial support for TO must remain, unfortunately for all.

    The War Ends!

    No, they have not all been doubled. I have had many EN players contact me wondering why their container rewards were wrong. The most common complaint was over 29 continers. It is IMPOSSIBLE for an EN player to win an odd number of containers. Do the math, Why is no mod on this forum taking these errors seriously? There is no "extending the war" in this game. In EVERY game you will see 3 or all 4 teams able to win the game on t6 and all 4 no later than t7. The only way to "extend the game" is for the team with the Rocket to intentionally refuse to defend it. That means just handing over the win to a different team. They will not be so stupid as to not defend the rocket for the win. Only mor ons would do this. And out of hundreds of players on a team, over 50% are not likely to go breain-dead just before voting. Any leader that urges throwing away victory needs be removed as leader immediately. But like Izrak that next leader won't be me. This can be someone else'd headache.

    Container Project to Learn Reward Probabilities

    Please do no post data this way. This take a lot of time without having to watch a video. Thanks This way of reporting is spectacular. Not only color coded but listed in the order I enter the data. This is very helpful and thank you. You do not have to go to this extreme, but please try to help me by summarizing your results one way o another, Thanks again. The data is going to flood in now. I have opened only 5 containers so far. I do not want to overlap PA periods too much. So I opened some on my poorest account ... 2nd box I got a 3-day PA. :)

    The War Ends!

    You ,missed his point. Many EN players are saying they did not get 2x the per-turn containers for being on the winning side. No EN player should get 29 containers the math does not allow it for a winning player. It is impossible for any EN player to receive an odd number of containers. But many are. The TO War software is buggy! It is it actually is. This is atop the many many players like me who did really fo teh 200 kills but are not being credited with it. So many players are reporting these problems. Why is no one taking this seriously?

    Container Project to Learn Reward Probabilities

    OK I am still running out of "Likes" due ot increased furum use fue to this war thingie. But I have all the data posted here.. Thanks btw ti PilotKingFish for going through his records. We now have 1305 forum data points and Maf's 1033. I was planning on the next report t 1500 but I think I will just do it at the end of the War or so. Because we are going to see a lot of containers soon! So I want to be ready for the rush.

    Episode 164 of the V-LOG is out!

    I guess this new format is a version of King of the Mountain. First reaction is 'lukewarm'. I would gladly trade the development effort spent on this thing had been spent on balancing Magnum and Twins, and on finally giving some turrets the alterations they need. Meh.

    Container Project to Learn Reward Probabilities

    OK folks I am back from War to collect the last few days data. I might run out of "likes" but I will apture all the data posted above this message. I saved some container for this War event and it paid off with a pair of 3PA rewards. Since I had to do 200-kill days anyway that was niiiiice. Made almost 15k one day. Also got Gucciflage which is actually a good camo pattern. If we didn't have big glowing bars hovering over our camo'ed tanks Now I just opened the 3 I got for my latest mission chain ... a pair of 3.5k and a 25k ... 32k boom there it is, thank yew thank yew.
