good idea to use rep to promote/advance commanders? use all or some to advance? which commanders to advance? have 2 at lt level. only have 3.5 mil rep total to work with

this one

are the rewards for the PTS account only or do they transfer to the regular account?

How is efficiency calculated for each vehicle a person owns? how does one increase this value? is it just doing more damage and getting hit less? tied to number of spots? W/L ratio?

Thanks for the information SS

I have had no issues with Discord in any of the patches but then again I use the default set up. when in voice channel I still get a list of those in the channel and an indicator as to who is speaking by virtue of their name lighting up for lack of a better description. perhaps screen shot of what your issues are could help someone with more knowledge on the subject than I.

what about people who don't have all available commanders unlocked can they use anyone?

out of curiosity what can support do about it? can they give a reason for the ban? if somebody is mad at the ban in the first place and support takes as long as the ban to respond has anything been accomplished? I haven't looked for reasons one can be banned in game chat or on discord but I assume they are clearly posted someplace right?

humm slow on the gun. . . I wonder if subconsciously I'm waiting for the loader's UP or just trying to dial the shot in. which bots fire only heat? never noticed that or considered that before. I thought I focus on t 15's, Bradleys, termies and remkas and other missile vehicles more. does the replay show something different? if it does I missed it.

you are ignoring a large piece of the picture. I am a slow learner. I pay attention, but the writing from short term memory to long term memory doesn't function like a normal brain does. perhaps 10% stays and at the rate maps change the info that IS saved becomes useless. and yet you'll expect me to function as if I were normal. perhaps now you knutliott and begin to understand my level of frustration at attempting to get help when the first thing that is essentially why aren't you normal? Yep I get defensive because people just brand me as lazy. herd it all my life, lots carriers over it. IF I could ask a question that wouldn't garner a why don't you just learn, don't you think I would. The best I can do is how do I get better with the limits that I have in functional understanding as a not normal person.

first of all thank you for reviewing the replay. aiming center of mass is a skill the the US Army drilled into me at Ft. Knox Armor School. it's a hard habit to break. I was under the impression that the leo was a support tank and better suited to be farther back not the tip of the spear. is that not the case? by nature I am a more passive type of player partially because I haven't learned when and where it pays to be aggressive. regarding player deaths, when not running premium time and boosts how many deaths can one tolerate before you don't get any benefit from the match? I'm sensing that getting more damage will completely off set the cash loss from re spawning. so how much damage is needed for this offset to work. my gut tells me it's going to be a lot more then I am currently producing in any vehicle. regarding ping 120's is horrible?? what do you play at ping wise? In my battalion I am frequently going to be out classed by better vehicles since I have only the leo at 9. looks like I need to re spec Freja. the one shown gives her what, faster repair or turret traverse. I'm lost without the hover over spot information. @Norse_Viking I don't use auto aim. it's the Army's fault XD.

it takes some work to get people to use coms, but it is worth the effort. the few people I managed to toon up with from Labs didn't use voice. guess they don't want to be bothered with it or are too focused on running their vehicle YMMV

thanks I had concerns that I didn't get it posted correctly. ping is in the 123 to 127 range. which result screen do you want the overall one from the end of the match, the team page or the details ? anything else like commander set up ?

you don't see the arrogance in your response? you expect me to operate on/at your level ignoring the fact that I have spent 4 or more years trying to get better without success. you are NOT helping, in fact I don't think you can help me.

this is an attempt to post a replay for CONSTRUCTIVE help, assuming I have posted the link into drop box correctly in order to link it here. my Leo is not fully upgraded. highest commander is Lt. rank. https://www.dropbox.com/s/bpsscanykcqpby8/2020-07-26 202111.awr?dl=0 remember this may set the tone for all future reviews or lack there of. don't be a dick, because it may com back at you. I may ask for clarification and or different explanations because I may not understand on the first pass. don't want to fine, just say so. Thanks for attempting to help an old tread head.

so we start over. I don't want you to compile anything. I would like information. if you feel that information is to much for you to give then simply say so in a way that is not ambiguous or simply refrain from commenting. must be nice to be able to get anything and everything on the first try with no effort on your part. my mind doesn't work that way. never has and me wishing it to do so won't help me. I HAVE attempted to use the tips given. I have not been successful as of now. so if we should happen to find ourselves in the same match don't fuss at me for not playing to your standard. I am trying, harder then you would be leave.

lol hell no

Quantum real armor tactics aren't what this game is about as it is an arcade shooter not a sim XD. you have been reading my threads/posts but there a couple of discrepancies. although I have a tier 9 I have yet to actually play heroics, I'm not ready for it. the 9 is not fully upgraded nor is the commander, which as I understand it would put me a a big disadvantage in any attempt at heroics. the shooter medals are in normal game play and glops but mostly normal play. I have been hesitant to post a replay because of the drubbing I got posting WOT replays. the things that were said there would curl you hair more than they would actually give you any help on getting better. I'll get a drop box acct or something like it before I can post a replay. I wish somebody else would be first so as to judge the level of toxicity I may encounter :-). With the recent changes to the bots and how the perform anything I post will be somewhat outdated. stay tuned. on a different note, has anything I have expressed been what you have experienced in the game or on the forums? do you think you are getting the information and or help that would allow you to improve?

frequent stuttering seems to be another issue that cropped up last night on both Tsunami and one who's name escapes me at the moment.

it seems that every time I ask something it generates answers that could be their own thread LOL knutliott please don't take this the wrong way, but your attitude is what I'm trying to change. why do you think I or anyone else is expecting somebody else to do the work? you are not the first or only one to chastise me for attempting to find out information that eludes me. example a dozen different spawn points for each map that may or may not be used when I was only considering initial spawn points only as was suggested by someone in the "questions for good players" thread. you say that you are happy to help and guide people and give them pointers then essentially tell them to go learn it. why do so many players have the attitude of if it was hard for me then it should be hard for you too. if the information was freely shared perhaps the player base would improve making the game more enjoyable for everyone is one way to look at it. another would be, how do I know how much I don't know if I don't know what o look for or ask about. My time in the military has taught me that information needs to be sheared for the mission to succeed. It seems once again a question is partially answered and has perhaps re directed back to the "questions for good players" thread :-) anyone want to revisit that one and comment more or am I flogging a dead horse

@Quantum_Ranger you missed my point, not surprisingly because I didn't state it very well if at all. In a different thread I was told by several people that ONE way to get better at the game is to MEMORIZE the spawn points(initial ones) as they have done. now, I had no Idea of how many maps were involved but I knew it was a lot. that question has been answered but as I feared nobody has the spawn locations readily at hand. it would be easier to memorize one rotation cycle as opposed to all of the spawn points. which leads me to another question. If spawn points are so important to getting better at the game why is so little information available. once again I am inferring that the good players have the information somewhere, somehow (locked away in their brains) and are not willing to part with it, despite my being told they ARE willing to help players that ask get better. this seems to reinforce the notion that everyone must walk their own path--a sort of social Darwinism so to speak. So math people, how many individual map replays would be needed to get a representative sample of initial spawn points for a particular map? perhaps that is something I can accomplish and help myself on the road to getting better. anyone have any suggestions as to which order to tackle the maps? I will post the locations and the map here as I go through them. perhaps later they can be aggregated into rotation groups for easier searching?

a branch off from another topic. what is the total number of maps available for PVE. what are the number of spawn points in each map. are the spawn points consistent between tiers ? does anyone have a list of spawn points per map, either just coordinates or pics of map with spawn points labeled. is this asking too much? is the general consensus is you need to figure that on your own because you should memorize the spawn points

I hearing a lot of what is essentially rote memorization(in educational parlance the term is drill and kill) is a key to success. unfortunately for those of us with a learning disability, memorization is a long and tedious task, frequently complicated by the fact that maps and AI behavior change before I can memorize them. which brings up at least for me a question that may seem rather odd. How many of you good players are also good at math? what has that got to do with this game you may ask. consider, in higher math you have to know what a derivative is in order to use it; likewise for symbolic manipulation to get you to a certain point before you plug in the numbers. when I was in school an attempt was made to get me to understand "double distributive" property. I never understood it, not until several years later when it was re introduced as the FOIL principle (first,outer, inner, last) which to me made scene finally. it wasn't memorization that got me to understand that concept it was an explanation. one that people with high functioning math skills take for granted that EVERYBODY thinks this way and therefore needs no explanation, it just IS. what I keep hearing on the forums is the previous sentence. this goes hand in hand with the fact that so many will offer help only on the forums and not verbally over TS or Discord or in game via platooning. just want to be clear I'm not asking or demanding that anyone do something they are uncomfortable with. nor am I calling out good players for not helping. I'm searching the minds that offer a reply for something that will click with me before they grow weary of my questions and at the same time get mad at me for my lack of understanding.

alright, first a thanks to all who have replied to this thread. now I'm going to try to ask for some specifics. I think my dossier is set to public but I'll check to be sure after this posts. somebody look at my dossier and let me know if I should narrow the line(s) I have ground thus far. next, although I get shooter medals a lot my damage output is still most of the time bottom of the match. am I simply too slow on the gun? (ignore all other factors for this question) if it's a matter of twitch reflexes I'm screwed because I'm an older player. how can I get quicker on the trigger (suggestions for drills or perhaps how long I am at X magnification needs to be changed) In essence I am trying to take a step by step approach to identify what is keeping me at the bottom of the damage pool and fix those issues one at a time.
