    Nerfing artillery was incredibly unnecessary. It would have sufficed reducing the arties to max 1 per team. I loved arties, I hardly ever play it anymore. I hated it myself too, when there were too many arties.

      One artillery piece per team would make it bearable. Having multiple clickers take turns shooting the same target again and again and again is not healthy for the game. Having one of them wouldn't solve that, but it would make it less horrible.

    Dedicated arty player here (just because I love to contradict WG and I am crap with other classes 😉). WG should have allowed only 1 arty per game without nerfing. Hate me as much as you want, that's what I think.

      WG should allow three arty per battle, let them platoon up, and force the non-arty players to learn how arty works (assuming they can comprehend the skill set involved). It's pretty easy to avoid arty almost all the time, even in a slow moving heavy. Oh, and undue the HE nerf too. Unfortunately, the whiners are the pay to play folks and the arty types are far more likely to be play for free types.

      I played a lot of heavy tanks after they changed the arty shells. Imagine 3 arties hitting you for 300 each on a tier 10 game, couple of minutes you are down to the low 100's in hp. Thats stupid. Forget the module n crew damage

    Two items:
    First, I’d like to see how many games each of those players have in those particular machines. I willing to bet they both have a lot of games in them with VERY skilled crews. That T92’’s aiming circle in particular was very small for that gun, and it aimed in very quickly as well.
    Second, I’m assuming WG has the XP set that way on purpose so that artillery players need to use the lower damage shells to get more XP, while WG can wring their hands and say that they aren’t being nerfed and still have the option to use the higher damage shells. That way WG wins, the whinny heavy tank players who cough up all of the coin are happy with the lower arty damage, and only the arty players (who most of the vocal players just want to go away anyway) lose.

    Personally, I think "veeled wheicles" have done more to ruin this game than Arty ever has (even in the old days of no limits on the number of arty.
    VW's have ruined spotting which makes games stagnate until the VW is dead. If people would take time to play Arty, they would know how to avoid being trolled by them.
    The arty nerf combined with the HE nerf have made them much harder to play, but they are not anywhere close to the "unplayable" status that most have relegated them to.

    Keep up the great work Claus! I play mostly arty because I am 70 years old and my reaction times have slowed down quite a bit. I can’t compete with younger gamers in other tanks who are much faster although I do try. I love tanks in general and my heroes growing up were all WWII veterans including my dad and two uncles who fought in Nazi Germany. With all its failings, WOT is a fun game that can be very frustrating. After 7 years & 35K games (almost 70% arty), I say limit 1 arty per game but leave it alone. I do have an M44 with 2 mark barrel, it took 10K games. The real trick is not only to fully aim, but guess where the target tank will be in 4 or 5 seconds. For me, the RNG is the worst, as it negates the skills you may have developed. You win or lose based on a computer number generator, not your skill. This means you have limited control over your results and are basically playing a card game, or shooting dice. This is what I find the most frustrating thing about WOT. The trick is: don’t take it seriously. GLHF is probably the most appropriate advice.

    Hey Claus, been playing arty for 7 years. You mentioned in video you didn't know arty players with 3 stripes. It is possible to do. I have earned 3 stripes on my Grille, GW Tiger P, GW E 100. 1 star on T92 HMC and 1 stripe on Gun Conq. I don't feel like arty is more accurate in the latest nerf to arty. The hits these players are making are well aimed and timed. These were perfect games for these players. The longer the team can hold out on a building-less map like El Haluuf the better the chances are that arty will hit targets that more or less sit still. Since the nerf, I have hit the sides of tanks for 1000+ dmg with HE shells. Something that wouldn't have happened before the nerf. I believe it has to do with the updated trajectory of the HE shells. You can arc more shots with every spg now. KaiserJosef. Thanks for all your videos and your sense of humor. Shout out to you Claus!

    If WG want to make artillery truly a support class, give us shells that do different things than damage or stun. Go back to one damage/stun shell and add shells that slow down track repairs, shells that increase a tanks time of remaining spotted, shells that decrease a tanks spotting distance, or radio capability. As an example, you could have a flare shell that gives off smoke for a certain amount of time if it hits the tank, even when the tank goes unspotted you can still see the flare smoke. they need to be more imaginative with the ability of artillery to affect the outcome of a match. Shell types that don't deal damage have a much lower reload time due to the current short nature of games.

    In WoT, the aim circle was implemented as a way to balance the fact that the computer automatically adjusts bullet drop for the player. However, this causes a lot of problems when it comes to balance in so many other game aspects - RNG and weakspots, artillery, snapshotting. If Wargaming decided to take a page from War Thunder and removed the automatic bullet drop adjustment for all vehicles in the game, all of these problems would be fixed instantly
    In War Thunder, aim circles are pretty much not a thing - if you aim for a weakspot properly, you will almost always hit it, whereas if you don't aim for a weakspot on purpose, you will never hit it. The fact that War Thunder also requires you to adjust for your own bullet drop means that aiming at weakspots is not a trivial task, and is something that requires practice (whereas in world of tanks, the aim circle means that someone can be aiming perfectly at a weakspot and not hit it b/c of poor RNG, while someone else can be aiming at the wall next to the tank and still hit said weakspot b/c of lucky RNG)
    In War Thunder, indirect fire *is* possible, however, the non-existence of satellite view and Wargaming's bullet drop adjustment systems means that indirect fire requires actual player skill, coordination with one's own team, and intimate map knowledge. As a result, no one in War Thunder considers the way indirect fire is implemented in that game to be unbalanced (don't believe me? go on the war thunder subreddit and look up anything related to indirect fire). The biggest reason why I left World of Tanks many years ago and came to War Thunder was precisely because of this issue - it was not fun to play arty in WoT, and it was not fun to play against (plus most of the anti-arty people were *just as cancerous as arty itself* , which is a topic i'd like to go into but is ultimately irrelevant to the main point of my comment here). Meanwhile, the Sturmpanzer 2 in War Thunder requires a shit-ton of practice and an extremely good eye to be able to hit anything beyond 500 m on the first shot, but for the genuinely most skilled players, it is a meme-machine.
    In War Thunder, the fact that players have to adjust for their own bullet drop means that snapshotting is not a thing, period.

    They nerfed arty very bad back then, ending in people stop playing these vehicles. But at the same time they left the same missions for arty, so people ended up having a really difficult time completing the missions for artillery or not completing them at all.
    As I see this, there can be 3 alternatives, either limit 1 arty per game and buff them a little, remove them completely from the game and delete all missions relevant to it ( or give some kind of compensation for those who worked their ass off to make it work), or return them to their previous stats and keep them 1 per battle.

    I agree pretty much. The way to balance for the big M needs to be improved. I agree with the other poster who noted that RNG for arty is skewed far on the shit side of things. If they wanted arties gone they just should have taken them out of the game and made all of 'em in our garages disappear. But I'm still angry that they just decided to phuque arty players. There needs to be some adjustments made if they keep arty in the game. Right now playing arty is pretty much like bending over, spreading your non-lubed cheeks, and shouting "Come on, big boy!"

    Gore Medal is nearly out of reach nowadays, arties still work fine as crew academy over time.
    Arty's aimcircle on the ground is a projection of the calculated arc to the 'flat' surface of the ground, therefor sometimes oval shaped. To have more target area/surface covered by Your aim, You might tend to aim 'behind' the vehicle.

    I only play a triple marked SPG for missions or if I am trying to maximise credits per shot (shooting only HE). For missions I use bond equipment and food. Then it is accurate. Good games require team mates with good vision who track enemy tanks for me and who can stay safe. If WG wanted to remove arty, they should have removed +2MM, because that was the only reason I started playing arty as a new f2p player.

  • @NL-Chaos
    @NL-Chaos Před 2 lety +2

    I wished I had those kind of games :S I love playing with my arty and supporting my team on critical points in the field when things are looking grimm for my teams chance on winning. One time I had to shoot on both sides of the map as my men where outnumbered 1:2 and 1:3, they fought with much bravery but I knew they would eventually lose if I did not step up my game.
    I aimed at the guy that was outnumbered 1:2 as he had less health and not a premium tank. I aimed shot and.... I stunned the entire group tracked 2 tanks and 1 got away with shit in his pants. Sadly I could no longer help my now tracked and for sure dead teammate so I focused on the other person on the other side of the map.
    I aimed to scare them away as a artillery master should do as we do not allow anyone to be hurt if not needed. So I shot over the heads of the enemy and shit on my own teammate so that they knew I would not discriminate to make a point. And now they knew that if they continued their assault there would be big shit storm coming their way, as I would make them cry for mommy allot by hitting all around them constantly. I know no one wants to grab a new pair of boxers every 30 min... I mean 30 seconds sorry time go's slower for people who are artillery masters.
    Eventually I shotgunned a heavy tank that had 400 health as he approached me and then I drove as fast as I could while my men where reloading the big gun( after their brake was over so they where pretty slow) so then a Ferrari came around the corner that the enemy had camouflaged with a tank gun, of course we shot at the Ferrari point blank because they drive way to fast so we sat in a corner but it bounced our HE shot so we now where tracked by the explosion and the 200 health Ferrari light tank shot us in the side and back and that was our end. But he we did our best.

    War Gaming hates arty and it's sad. I remember when a direct hit delivered full shell damage, after all your shell was hitting from the top down. Where the armor is thinnest. So, now you have a big slow moving, slow firing and slow to aim target for the others to pad their scores with.

  • @p4radigm989
    @p4radigm989 Před 2 lety +1

    You are correct, Claus, it was always stupid how Wargaming counts performance in artillery, because it is totally artificial and has nothing to do with arty helping to win the battle. Stunning counts more for them than damage, because WG doesn't want arty to 'steal' damage that tanks should be doing, despite the fact that most 'assist' damage would have happened anyway, whether enemy is stunned or not. Wargaming wants arty to only stun, players hate stun, because it's annoying. I was one of the best arty players and a pretty good tanker too, but I stopped wasting my time with this game because it just got more stupid over time and the monthly events can only be done successfully when you dedicate insane amounts of time to it, and because of EBRs and constant grind because of hidden nerfs and new OP tanks.

    It might be more accurate upon occasion but it's entirely dependent on what sort of rigged number generator WG gives you in a match. Bad RNG means your shots land outside the aiming circle or do minimal damage, good RNG means you're firing laser guided shells that don't miss. Its that way for the whole game now, not just artillery, nothing but a rigged "RNG" casino with predetermined outcomes calculated by WG before the match even starts.
