On another note, 3d game models has the test server up.
Holy shit the AT-2. It has 76mm side skirts atop the tracks atop another 25mm of armour.
You are also better of shooting the sloped sections of armour then the vetical 203mm plates.

Also, if you can penetrate the are around the gun on the tortoise, your shells have been touched by god.
225mm spaced armour atop another 300mm of armour.

So what are we fighting over this time?
[QUOTE=paindoc;39617372]So what are we fighting over this time?[/QUOTE]
We're defending the province we fought so hard for. As of this post we're roughly 5 short, so we need all hands on deck!
Well, one interesting fact I've learned about the 59-16: it's ammo rack is made of explodium.
arguing arguing arguing.
MAKE IT STOP.
I'll have you know I'm a youtube star too
38t, why did I ever sell you before?

As an aside, I'd love to help out with CW, but no one has ever actually responded to my requests to join. I'd really like to. :(

How do the mechanics of HESH work?
[QUOTE=Bumgall;39618435]How do the mechanics of HESH work?[/QUOTE]
point, click, kill
but really in real life they are plastic explosives, you can read about them on wikipedia. It impacts a tank, which flattens the explosives, and then the fuze ignites the explosives and boom

[QUOTE=Bumgall;39618435]How do the mechanics of HESH work?[/QUOTE]
As far as I can tell, they work just like HE only without normalization (whatever that is). Difference is, they have a really high pen value, which means they are devastatingly effective.

This was probably the most intense battle I've been in in a good long while. Himmelsdorf, Encounter Battle. About half of each team went up the hill to face each other, after a pretty tense couple of minutes, we'd managed, somehow, to take out their heaviest firepower at the hill, as well as about half the people on their side attacking the hill, they turned round and fled down the hill, severa of us followed and thundered down the hill after them, slaughtering a couple of them (I got a bison on the way down the hill too) but then, disaster, they got a shit load of their light tanks, a couple of meds and a heavy onto the cap point, the meds went away part way through though and we were left with a couple of lights onthe point, at 95% capture, all seemed lost, until a couple lucky arty strikes got the counter down enough to give us time to get in their faces and fuck them up. We eventually won, and as we did, I realised that it was the first match of the day in my Pz IV, which made me super happy with the amount of xp i got.

Didn't even fire any gold, just plain old crappy 80mm penetration AP, but I still badly wounded a Stug, Panther, and two arties. Did 100 more damage than anyone else on the team, too.

59-16 gets into tier 10 matches correct?
[QUOTE=Bumgall;39618435]How do the mechanics of HESH work?[/QUOTE]
Currrently it is just high pen HE. This means that when it his any things like spaced armour, tracks or the gun, it will explode before penetrating the armour, automatically doing at most half the damage.
If it hits a clean piece of armour, it checks if it pens (it doesn't normalize), and if it does, boom.
[QUOTE=dill6869;39620052]59-16 gets into tier 10 matches correct?[/QUOTE]
Yup. Although strangely enough, I've also been put into tier 6 matches as well, despite the MM on the wiki saying it's tiers 7 to 11.
I feel sorry for any scouts that I happen across in it, too; that 5 round autoloader can tear any tier 4 or 5 scout a new one, since it fires every 1.3 seconds and reloads in 9.4.
Bit of a page stretch, but why am I CONSTANTLY matched with these assholes?
Calls me a randy faggot and that he should kill all not cap

If you would have got in the fucking cap we would have won, but nope gotta get more kills
Tries to kill arty, misses and the arty kills him
How do I aspect ratio.

Current model.

where exactly do you find this kind of stuff?
I wouldn't mind being able to know where to shoot stuff...
[quote]- in the future there might be working machineguns, SerB is considering options, for example to use them for target designation. But nothing is certain (they certainly won't work as "usual" weapons, as SerB states the amount of projectiles calculated would crash the server)
- a player complained that when he is in a platoon, the platoon is very often on the bottom places of the team - Storm answers that the vehicles are balanced according to their weight and not to correspond in each team, it's not a bug
- there will be no special battles without arty, arty won't be removed from the game (SS: sorry, Garbad)
[B]- the 1750 HESH for FV215b will stay[/B]
- tutorial fights with bots won't be for all players, only for beginners
- gold for VK2801 camo will not be refunded (SS: a player whines he wants his gold for permacamo back because the VK2801 sucks now)
- 8.3 is NOT working without problems with 310.90 Nvidia driver, 8.4 won't work with it either - it's not a WG bug, it's a driver bug, WG can't do anything about it, Storm recommends older versions (SS: Im using 306, without problems)
- (any) tank is evenly spread across its MM tiers
- the difference between MM weights of two teams can be 10 percent at the most
[B]- all the tier 5 light tanks will be converted (to T6 and MM-wise) the way VK2801 was, both T-50-2 and Chaffee will be pushed to T6 (and nerfed) when their light branches are expanded[/B]
[B]- German LT branch will be expanded in 8.5 (SS: T7 - Aufklärungspanzer Panther, T8 - RU251)[/B][/quote]
RIP tier 5 end tier scouts, it was fun while it lasted.

But, to see high tiers you have to pay I think.
[QUOTE=Atlascore;39621417]You actually bought a T25/2? You poor bastard..[/QUOTE]
It's nothing, I actually managed to grind through it. Probably the most fun thing about it is exploiting KV-5's R2-D2 with its accurate gun.

For some reason its butchered in screenshots

I liked it. I got a good wr with it as well.
Strange, I don't have any problems with tankies running 310.90 drivers :\
