Re: How do you determine your tanking ability?

I find that I am happy with my play and feel like an awesome
tanker when I excel at.....decision making....
There are days when I just get it. I leave situations and
locations before they are hopeless, I do not stay in the open to
just get off one more shot on a near dead tank and thus take
more damage that I did not need to, I see what is happening
before it happens and communicate it clearly recruiting some
others to my plan, etc.
You can, very rarely, get an amazing game because everything
just seemed to unfold for you, you just aimed and shot. But, in
my opinion, the best games and the best players react to the
game in real time, this does not happen in the first couple of
minutes but rather about 3 or 4 minutes in. When you adjust
your action to the game, the situation, and to how you are able
to read the play or your opponent.
I have had a few days that I am just on, and many that I keep
saying, "did you really just do that you F'ing noob"

I review stats as a benchmark..... I know my first 1500 games
were learning to play...I know that seems like a lot but I have
not played anything since Nintendo 64. When my 17 year old
stepson showed me this game a year ago on his XBOX 360, I was
blown away. Went and bought an XBOX 360 , downloaded the game
and haven't stopped since. Using WOT info, I noticed my game
play has been much better last 6 months. to answer the OP I
would say damage, kills (k/d ratio), win/loss. I truly enjoy
playing, and the platoons are fun, so my main goal: forget about
everyday BS, crack a beer, platoon with friends. Worth a
couple of hours a day.

If I don't drown my platoon members or shove them off a cliff
while trying to save them, then I consider I'm doing well.
:peace:
