My LIfe (In this game) Sucks

[Jackie Daytona]

Every match I run into a "me vs 2-5 reds" situation. No matter what I do.

All enemies prioritize me. No matter what tank I'm in.

I peek out. I barely get my tank out from cover. Three reds all target and hit me instantly. I can't even get back into cover. And the crazy thing? They all were targeting my allies. They all had shots on them. YET THEY ALL TURN TOWARDS ME WHEN I'M SPOTTED.

I was in a match earlier. It was down to 3v3. The reds had my two allies surrounded. I tried to provide cover, but was doing exceptionally bad. Wasn't hitting, and hits weren't penetrating. They were each down to ~20% health.

So, what happens? One of the red's heavies slowly makes their way up to me. My allies do nothing to help. I can't pen the dude. He kills me in one shot. He could have easily killed the other guys. There was no reason to drive across the map to get at me.

I get hit nearly every time I snipe. Usually from some red, aaaalllllll the way across the map. On my flank. My bad for thinking my ally, which is right next to them, would make some attempt to prevent this.

Nearly every match (around 90%) I have an ally that deals zero damage, or is afk.

I've seen people stop right in the middle of battle. With full health. And they just hide. Watch us all get blown up.

I'm currently at 6 losses in a row! I just need one more for a mission. And then I can logout. That's taken up almost an hour. (Oh, cool. I finally got it. Just after typing all that.)

I don't get why people go for me. Not when they have better targets.

It's even worse in the regular game.

Everyone has AFK on team, so its balanced. Its annoying. Moving on.

Every match = you meeting 2-5 reds.
so you are not going with the team AND/OR camping. so...
IF you play TD - light/med - heavy all properly, that would not happen. Why would you want to be front line in an underweight light tank. or camp in a heavy. doing so massivly weakens the team. it shouts IDIOT and NOOB and experienced players will enjoy the cannon fodder

You might be using noob camo. and/or not using the right ammo. you could be a cheapskate who doesnt upgrade tanks. let alone config them correctly.
A simple switch to prammo and you should be able to pen even a beast marching towards you. If you aim



i dont know your game count, but i am one of the many 100k games players. honestly. sometimes i just target random tanks from before the game has started. or i play whoever shoots me 1st will die. i invent mini games for myself.... or if i see someone using the "i have premium" camo - ill change target and prioritize the noobcamo tank.

i gave up trying to play the game properly. its been made so easy compared to the good old days. grinding used to be hard work. this gen just wants max straight away,

Jackie, what tier are you in?

I certainly have felt the "being targeted" issue throughout my 4 years of playing. It's just like you have stated, the slightest misplay from me, no matter what my team seems to be doing (I can only guess they are ALL in perfect cover even though I see them rolling around and what not). and all the sudden hit by 3 shells and destroyed. It's like the enemy team is literally targeting me and no one else, and it's basically up for me to die and then I guess they'll start targeting other players?

This wasn't every battle, but it's definitely something I've noticed. Especially when I played my T62. Good cripes you'd think I was the only tank on my team.

I don't know about the whole "running into" thing. I'd say that could be a player problem. As someone who would often of on my own to flank earlier in battles, this didn't seem quite like the "being targeted" thing but more like a mistake I was making by not sticking closer to the team.

Except, that isn't how it goes.

I get to the match results. My team has afk. No damage. No xp. Other team all dealt at least some damage.

I frequently find my vehicle is slower than everyone else's. So, I get stuck in the back. Everyone goes one way. I follow. Then we get flanked from the rear. I'm the only one back there. So, they only attack me. None of my allies take notice. Until I'm dead.

You didn't pay attention to my story. They always have better targets. Literally people that have turned their backs to them. In a wide-open space. Tanks with less armor/hp. And THEY STILL go for me. Every single time.

Don't know what that means.

Your presumption that I'm bad at the game is understandable. But also incorrect and rude.

Between WoTb & WoT, I have thousands of hours invested. I understand the game mechanics.

I can have every possible upgrade (and "gold rounds") to penetration, and still can't find a spot on their front armor that isn't red. (Unless it's a tiny spot. That, when dispersion is considered, can't possibly hit at long range.)

Why? That makes no sense.

It's the guy with the 60% WR that you should worry about. As he's going to shoot you when you go for the 40% WR guy.

Grinding still is extremely hard. As I'm the priority target for everyone. So it takes me 3 days of 6-8 hour grinds. Just to amass 20k xp on tanks ranging from tier V-VIII. You don't earn much when you die the first time you fire.

This is because you are playing with bots, not real people, so they know on a programmatic level when you are going to stick your head out. The only thing you can do is change your play style. Adapt to the bot system. Avoid situations where you will be in the sight of three tanks. You should only be in the sight of one tank. Your tank will not survive the fire of even two tanks. That is how the game is designed.

i notices that the review for this game which was written by this Steam Account

https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198042130595/recommended/444200/

shows that this Steam Account played WOTB for 522.5 hours in total.

--------------------------------------------------

your post is like telling everyone that you are extremely a new player playing this game which doesn't make sense when taking into account the total hours of play time spent on WOTB.

[MoyZ3]

The level of ignorance is award winning. But reforge is around the corner, so is there really any point in complaining ?
Oh... actually maybe ill play that instead now

[americachicago]

i also have the same problem, when i play with ukraine or russian players allmost everytime i get knocked down when i try to help and get cornered by 2-3 enemy tanks and get no help...why the wg doesnt do anything about it? i sent so manny complaints about that and still no solved problem...i play in a team but actually is not a team, everybody for himself

IF and it's an if your opponents are human and know what they are doing then they hit the tank with low HP or lethal damage first. Example - In a battle with T6/7 tanks I'm gonna pump into the enemy anhillator ASAP. Remember your competent opponents get a little message each time you kill one of their friends, You seem able enough to know what you're doing.

The only advice or help I can give for moments when the heavy is closing your position down is to remind you that you can run away, set ambushes to bleed his HP or get allies involved.

500+ hours in addition to 2000+ hours (on regular WoT) is noob territory?

You're either trolling or delusional.

I don't know how to describe it better than I did in the OP.

My allies are one shot away from death. I peek out from cover. Every red targets and fires at me. Even though they've got an easy kill. Right in front of them. In full view.

This is one of the signficant issues. IMO when there are bots in a battle, they should be super easily identified as bots. There should be no guess, there should be no question, that bot tanks are in the battle.

I recall from earlier days it was common a bot would be named something like xyz_2015. But I am nearly certain that TG uses bots in other tiers that are not nearly as easily identifiable.
