[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;39670122]My question about WoWS is, what era is it supposed to be in? Is it mainly WWII? Because I can't think of a single Russian naval battle outside of submarine assaults upon the occasional Japanese convoy.
But, knowing wargaming, they'll pull some shit out of their nostrils.[/QUOTE]
Prototypes, failed experiments and napkin designs will compromise the majority of ships, I bet.
[quote]- only amount of platoons in battle is balanced specifically, not their MM weight
- British T8 prem won't come in 8.5
- Q: "Is it worth collecting XP on Chaffee and T-50-2 for when they are moved to T6 and the branch is prolonged?" A: "Always better to wait for announcements" (SS: in other words, another confirmation the fate of VK2801 awaits them too)
- Kampfpanzer M47 (germanised M47) will NOT be a T8 German premium medium vehicle, Storm says it's more like T9,5 material
[B]- 0 module damage bug: Storm claims it's an old bug, around from 7.4, it will be fixed in 8.5 or 8.6[/B]
- the issue whether Leopard-1 will get a Bundeswehr cross will be solved later
- SerB on War Thunder: "Release will show what is what"
- no tier 10 premium tanks will be implemented, ever
- sub-caliber rounds do not ricochet more than AP ones in WoT
- on 7/42 companies and statistics: "If your statistics are precious to you, don't play 7/42 companies"
- SU-122-44, Panther M10 and AT-15A are doing fine statistically
[B]- not all trees will have T8 LT's[/B]
- T-34-100 back into the game? "We rarely bury tanks for good. The tank is interesting but for now we can't tell anything about its fate"
[B]- SerB considers IS-7 to be overnerfed[/B]
- T-64 early prototype in WoT? "We won't comment on that"
- for an ammoracked vehicle to be forced to buy all the ammo (that was destroyed during the explosion) would be too hardcore, won't be implemented
- it's not clear whether the barrel of a destroyed tank counts as "solid", it has been changed several times in the past
- SerB states that the duty to enforce the 12+ policy is on the parents, Wargaming doesn't have a way to control the player age
- those who trade their accounts are banned if the evidence is clear
- there might be a tree bridges between UK and Chinese regular vehicles and arties - SerB won't tell details, because there would be too much whine if this was changed
- SerB is happy with current Batchat155 performance
- in the Brit tree, AT8 is before AT7 due to their performance characteristics
- according to SerB, Chinese tanks are played by a normal amount of people, the most popular branch is the USSR
- it's not yet decided whether the Italians will be a part of the EU tree, or will have their own
- Japanese "O-Ni" superheavy project is unknown to Serb, he knows of other names
- SerB does not yet know, whether the Japanese light tank "57mm gun Type 5 Ke-Ho" will be implemented
- tier 2 Japanese arty was already decided, but won't be published for now
- regarding the Iwakuro tank, the only option for it was the 150mm gun, early O-I (and some others) might have a long-barreled 75mm gun (of unknown type) and a 105mm howitzer
- the bug where on minimum settings you don't see the objects properly and it can happen that you aim into a rock while you don't see anything there cannot be fixed, because in order to improve performance, the surface grid is too sparse and there might be a difference between the object picture on the server and on the client. Minimum settings should be used on really bad machines only.
And some answers from Storm (I'll just copy here the ones I did for the 8.4T2 patchnotes first, some were modified)
- Tortoise won't get the nerf, not even in 8.5
- the new Nvidia drivers contain the same bug as the old ones
- AT7 research test cost (9647 XP) is a bug, will be fixed
- the E-100 fix concerned frontal plate, (SS: not sure how it looks on the schematics but from what I understand come parts of the armor were improperly aligned (angles), causing the parts to be easy to penetrate), devs won't disclose what exactly they did, only the fact the bug was fixed
- Churchill I price confirmed to be cca 49000 (SS: 49050 stated earlier)
- on IS-6 "some little crap on the model" was fixed[/quote]
IS-7 overnerfed?
Yeah sure.
Not the e100 though. Of course not.

Eh, it probably won't get [I]too[/I] nerfed being that it isn't german.
:10bux: Germany wouldn't even get a T11 until long after everyone else is in, or Maus is moved to T11.

Jesus fucking christ every single time they said that they ended up implementing the tank.
How the fuck would the T-64 even be anywhere near balanced in this game? Sure you need a T10 for the Object 416 line but damn.
If they get a T-64 prototype I better get my M48 turned into a M60.

Well historically the Centurion 7/1 would be superior to the T64. The export models at least, and certainly the prototypes.

From what I am told, if it is nerfed as hard as the M48 then there would be little reason to use it over Russian tanks.
Maus at T11 would be an insult to German tank players.

Welp, my memory of badly wrote wiki articles failed me. I mistook what I assumed were t64s for t62s. Which as we all know, were crap.

Wait, this has always confused me. Is this a bug or not? I always hear conflicting opinions. I've always thought zero damage penetrations were either when you do hp damage to an internal module instead of to the tank itself, or you penetrate through spaced armor but not the body of the tank. I thought that it was the feedback to the shot that's misleading, and not that there is a fundamental problem causing these things.

I guess he's talking about those times where a Chaffee's tracks manage to eat a 240mm HE shell without taking any module (or tank) damage at all.

My game crashed so I didn't see it. Too bad our team was pretty bad and left the west flank open to everything.
[quote]Object 907 will be apparently implemented as the alternative Soviet tier X medium tank. A screenshot was leaked by a supertester and Storm - when confronted with it - replied simply "when it's done, it's done".

Straight outta supertest (not confirmed obviously but I trust the guy):
Current tanks being supertested?
T-60, T-70 light tanks, the aforementioned Object 907 and.... *drumroll please*
New Tier 10 German heavy tank, the 150mm VK7201. Apparently, the devs decided to use the "Leichter Lowe" model for some reason and strapped unhistorically thick armor on it. Looks about like this:

Oh wow. I thought the aspect ratio for the picture was just completely off. It really is that squashed.
[QUOTE=Azaz3l;39671841]From what I see, it has the D-54[/QUOTE]
It might have the same gun model, but it's clearly labeled tier 10. The D-54 is tier 9.
