[quote]"As many of you already know currently we are testing new physics model for 8.0 update. I have given a small update on the progress here. Below is the most recent things that are being worked on (tuned):
Tuned and adjusted ramming damage. The goal to make it predictable.
Decreased damage when falling from small heights and when driving cross-country.
Fixing issues with tanks stopping close to minor objects (rocks, etc)
Increased "drifting" ability. By the way, T-50-2 turning ability was decreased by 20% to fit the current physics model.
Increased vehicle turning when being detracked on the move.
Increased acceleration (approx by 25%) when climbing hills. There was too much gravity.
Fixed bug with tanks getting stuck on bridges (near the edges) and cliffs.
Fixed bug with disappearing destroyed tanks and "alive" tanks getting stuck in the spots where destroyed tanks were initially
Currently fixing bug with no damage being inflicted when landing on a destroyed tank.
Currently fixing the "flood" bar which doesn't work properly in some cases.
Currently removing the rest of invisible walls that have been mistakenly left.
Physics is really a key feature of the 8.0 update that is going to affect gameplay greatly, thus we are determined to polish it out 100% before the release. Your feedback is welcome." [/quote]
[QUOTE=Calkkuna;37454033]I can't seem to figure out how to play the M18. Sitting in bushes doesn't work because the second I fire, everyone sees me even though I have the camo net. The fact that I still have just the m1a2 gun doesn't help because it's pretty damn shit.
Sniping with it is kinda useless when my gun is a machine gun with small dmg and average pen.
Just what am I supposed to do with this?[/QUOTE]
Use your speedy speed to get to an obscure sniping spot, a ways away from the front line. Get a few shots off until someone shoots at you or there are no more shots available. Then scoot away to another location and rinse repeat.
With the M1A2, its pretty much the same thing except you need to get a little closer to be effective. Pretty much a cross between a shoot-n-scoot sniper and a medium support tank that doesn't want to get shot.
Constant relocation.

25% faster up hills
WOO WOOOOO

It looks like they've fixed all issues with physics. So it won't be delayed after all.
I'm expecting to see drifting T-50-2 doing drive-by in ruinberg

I'm getting the new russian TD first.
I come back to two new pages, expecting 8.0 test or other fun stuff. Instead it's two pages of shitty dramarguement.

Only thing it's got going is speed. Despite being a squished, fantasy IS-8 hull, it has less armor all around and the sides don't have the same magical space-age shell eating technology.
This is all opinion, however. I hate playing sniper more than a minute and I don't like relying on non-existent teammates. So armor that can be penned by VIIIs and carefully penned by Vs doesn't interest me. :v:

I was so nearly about to hit winner until I saw the spoiler. I'd love to hear some voices based on the nationality of the tank crew
[sub](provided that the british tank voices arent as stereotypically english as the tea and pudding)[/sub]
Today has been a really great day.
First, I bounced a t34 who was not angled at all in the rear with my 128 jagdtiger, then later on I bounced the side of a batchat with my 128 t28 p.
Not to mention shit teams and tons of arty in matches, one match had 6 per team.
And the most odd shit happend on himmelsdorf encounter, EVERYONE DIDNT GO HILL, normally this is a good thing, except for the fact that in this case it meant NOBODY WENT HILL.
So far it just keeps getting better and better with all the shit teams that doesnt move up and just leaves me to die or soak up all the damage.
Valve's Dota2 has bigger batch of Voice Acting for each individual hero than Wargaming with it's 1000 employees has the for the whole game.
Some nice 50 lines per each nation really wouldn't hurt.

serves you well you hacker
L/70 is being buffed to 150mm penetration.
Let's hope they do the same with the short 88.
Are they ever going to fix the whole calling out 'critical hit' thing when your shot does absolutley fuck all damage?

still happens lol
What I would give for a voice setting that allows your whole crew to talk, and with options for varying amounts of chatter:
None
Important Only (Classic)
Casual (Light)
Normal
Babbling Armor-Monkeys (Heavy)
Seriously, it'd be hilarious to have the crew casually talking and then when you get into battle - they all flip shit or the commander quiets them. :v:

I for one would love to hear the crew members speaking english/whatever language setting but with a heavy accent according to their nationality, like the germans in company of heroes or in red orchestra 2

Depending on how that's handled, that can range from amazing to hilarious comedy.
It takes so little to change a heavy accent from something cool, to something stereotypical and funny. :v:
This is how you win Encounter.

I would love it if they did the same kind of chatter thing as bad company 2
Also, as much as I hate the people who whine about "NO SPPORT NOOBZ", I do find it extremely irritating when I advance with 5 other heavies in my KV-5 and the next thing I know, Im being circled by 6 enemy tanks and slowly beaten to death because my team was nowhere to be found/ dead in 3 minutes.
AP + (APCR?) Normalization to be halved in 8.0
[quote=Devs]Armor does not solve and normalization.
We sat there, drinking tea and crunching crackers. It occurred to us that the effect of the armor on the result of the battle was much less when compared with the warm vacuum-tube type patch 6.4. Vexed. Therefore, it was decided to reduce the normalization by 4-5 degrees in patch 8.0.
It will bring the players:
-armor will become stronger at angles
-shoot mindlessly become impractical.
Long live the skill of driving and shooting.[/quote]

Well fuck you that song is now stuck in my head. Guess what Im humming/whistling while running at CC practice in 30 minutes? You bastard.
Anyways, the T49 is a fun tank indeed.
