Online Tank battles

There are some issues with the NA east server during login. I had trouble 1 time and did a flush on my IP and things worked fine after that.

I don't think the server matters for clans, but I could be wrong. if you can't find TROUT or get my invite then perhaps trying the NA East server will make it work.

Playing together is definitely better as Macro and I have found. Platooning really helps survivability...well unless you rush headlong into the enemy like we do on occasion.


I think I'll go with TROUT. Post your userid's again for me and I'll send out invites once the thing is set up.

[RendeR]

Clan TROUT has been created and I've sent a bunch of invitations out.

Peregrin is already in a clan so he would have to elave it (and wait 48 hours) before joining ours. Anyone who hasn't gotten an invite simply search for TROUT and apply and I'll sign you up!

I finally went back to the game because my connection improved after 6 months, updated it, played it for a few hours and when I came back it was stuck on the update again.....sigh

So I guess I need to flush everything and reinstall....Or keep being lazy and play Guild Wars II since I bought it for Christmas and could only now install and play...decisions,decisions

I accepted, I will be on tonight after I get home to game.

[BrianD]

Do you guys use mics and chat while you are playing, or just stick together and type comments?

[RendeR]

Macro and I just text chat. I don't have a headset that works on my PC, not sure if the one I have for the xbox might work on the laptop..I'll have to try that out, it would be far easier to actually talk to people.

[RendeR]

Nope, xbox gear doesn't work on the PC so I'm a text only guy.

[RendeR]

Usually what We do is within that 30 second countdown we'll discuss what and where we will go. if we're using different styles of vehicle we just do our own thing like if he's using arty and I'm not then I'll go out spotting for him and he'll hide n fire.

Otherwise we just run together and knock out tanks at the same time.

I received Beta invite for 360 today...it's for the weekend. Unfortunately, I will only be able to play it on the 360 Sunday night.

[RendeR]

Its running now macro, i just messed with it a bit. Frankly, its a serious step backward from the PC game but the kids will enjoy it.

Controls will take forever to get used to. Its very early in the Beta yet so I hope some of the things I saw will be corrected.

I bought my stuggIII and went through the upgrades and ended up with the shittier of the guns and now I can't go back to the derp gun that I enjoy best.

[Glengoyne]

I go by glengoyne559. Drop me an invite, and I'll join. It may be a few days before I'm on again as I'm away from home

[Glengoyne]

Hey,

I'm in, and loving it. Now we need one of our resident graphic artists to give clan TROUT a logo.

A fish or a football? A fish with a football?

[Peregrine]

Good luck with the clan guys - I'm pretty happy with my current clan at the moment, and will probably stay in it, but there's some turmoil so if something happens then I'd definitely be happy to move to TROUT.

My username is Peregrine23 - in 3RDAC clan - be glad to platoon with any of you guys if you are around (PC version.)

[thesloppy]

Yo, I'd love to get in on the TROUT clan action. My username: thesloppy

[Glengoyne]

Cool I got on a few hours over this past week, but seemed to be missing other folks. Hopefully this next weekend and week I'll get back to my obsessive play habits.

I know I've played with and against render and peregrine before, but usually only at the end of the game when it is too late to talk.

[gstelmack]

GRCurmudgeon now signed up, having a blast. Finally starting to figure out research and crew management.

[Peregrine]

How's everything going with you guys in WOT? I'm still playing it far too much, and recently got my first tier 10 tank. I've joined the KOOL clan, which is Kool-Aid- pretty decent folks. Give me a yell on Peregrine23 if you want to platoon anytime.

[MacroGuru]

It kept crashing on me, I just uninstalled and will reinstall it tonight and well get back into playing.

I started playing World of Warplanes last night...

[Glengoyne]

I'm still playing. I'm the west coast trout.

This weekend was frustrating as I only ran about a 40% win rate. I ran into half a dozen or so really potent platoons. Very skilled guys really working together. A brutal weekend.

Here are my stats. I'm ever so slowly improving. I've got some tier 7 tanks, all heavies, T29, KV-3, and an IS. All pretty new to me though.

[Peregrine]

Anyone else installed the World of Tanks Assistant on their smartphones? Quick way to get stats, plus you can compare your numbers with your friends, etc.
