I just watched the replay.
Honestly that Panther was utterly retarded and either autoaimed or thought that hitting your mantlet was a good idea.
If the player was ANY decent, you were dead on the first two shots after you got squished to the house.

If you're using the train mod, better remove it or get permabanned in 2 days.[/QUOTE]
I really hope they haven't been half assed about implementing that and that it will only pick up legitimate "cheats", not say the HD texture pack I'm using (which changes foliage).
It will be either half arsed and bypass-able by cheaters or half arsed and completely limiting what can be done.

If you ask me I presume (and hope) it's mostly the first, being a more of populist move to shut the whiners, rather than legitimate countermeasure.
[quote]- Q: "Dear devs, you wrote that the IS-7 is an example of an overnerfed tank. If you were to remove it, what tank would it be replaced with?" A: "We'd likely remove it totally" (SS: without replacement). SerB also stated that if IS-7 had its real life parameters, he'd be on tier 12-13, the most nerfed parameters are currently speed (IRL 60 km/h), ROF. There was a real parameter IS-7 during the alphatest - it was terribly overpowered
- out of T-44, T-54 and T-62A, SerB considers the T-44 most popular
- on T9 there is Lorraine and not AMX-13/105, "because we simply think Lorraine is better"
[B]- further tank customisation - in far future (it's possible that in far future, hull and track models will also be changed)[/B]
- the coefficient of how much silver do you get when winning and losing is the same for all tanks, but SerB states the system is much more complex
[B]- E-100 8.4 change? "upper frontal plate angle configuration"[/B]
- the same (gold) round has different parameters for different guns (D-25, BL-9), because it's historical
- SerB likes the work of V.Vysotsky (SS: a known Russian songmaker)
Japanese answers:
Q: When the first post-war Japanese tank was being developed, the plan for the tank was 20 tons with a 76 mm gun, which was changed to a 25 ton tank with a 90 mm gun due to the T-34 during the Korean War. However, the mockup team for the 25 ton proposal realized that the armor would be too thin to deal with bazookas and anti-tank missiles, which was why uparmoring lead to the 35 ton Type 61. Based on this history (as can be read in the Japanese wikipedia article on the Type 61), couldn't a Tier 6 and Tier 7 light tank be possible? (SS: please note that the question didn't sound like this, this is more like an explanation)
A: These tanks (20t 76mm/25t 90mm STA) were only "sets of requirements", they weren't developed industry-wise. Technically, they could be introduced into the game, but there are relatively big differences between light tanks that saw combat and these "requirement" tanks. So they (STA tanks) will most likely remain as medium tanks.
About the perspective 57mm gun, SerB states it's most likely an adaptation of naval 57mm, it might appear on "Ho-I" and the first "Chi-To" prototype, but SerB's not sure.
- the haystack at Prokhorovka do not work as bushes (no camo bonus)

Watch how they buff the E-100s UFP effectiveness by 5mm just so they can say they buffed a german tank for once.
I am pretty sure this is actually bullshit.
There's no angle changes. The only change to the E-100, is that the frontal hull corners changed to 200mm of spaced armor, instead of being 200mm hull (the area in front of the skirt, where there's nothing behind yet it acts as hull that does damage when penetrated in 8.3). I think I posted about it before. They also buffed the JPE's hull corners from 60mm to 200mm spaced armor, so now the two tanks are almost the same.
lol 60kmh IS-7 with a ROF of 8
That would be totally balanced
Yeah, I just went and checked. This is the change that gets done. part of the UFP becomes spaced armor, like on JPE-100.

The plate behind it is superangled 90mm (no overrules) so it's a teeny weeny buff as stuff that would penetrate your LFP in these bits and deal damage will just go through harmlessly and ding off the inside of your skirts.
[editline]24th February 2013[/editline]
Wait shit I just created the police E-100

Holy crap a half decent buff. Sweet jesus.
[QUOTE=DaMastez;39701297]the most nerfed parameters are currently speed (IRL 60 km/h)[/QUOTE]
Riiiight.
As if it could actually reach that speed on flat ground without the suspension getting crushed.
It's just like the god damn IS-4 and King Tiger, everyone keeps saying "but it says it went 42 kph in wikipediaaaaaaa!!" except it's the maximum speed, not the operational speed. As in, "don't go that speed, it's gonna fucking break".
If the IS-7's armor was realistic it'd fucking rape though, but the speed would probably have been capped to 35 kph [I]at most[/I] in operational situations. I also doubt the 1050 HP engine claim, but it's not like I have a source for that. If only the Russians would declassify everything at Kubinka.

It was an AP shell too.

Looks like a diagonal hit through the mantlet, here's a pic using a t-34 because the chinese prolly has identical layout

There was a shock which went through the aiming optics and hit him into the eye?
[QUOTE=MadCatMkII;39701751]Holy crap a half decent buff. Sweet jesus.[/QUOTE]
And how many times has someone managed to penetrate that area on the E-100's nigh impenetrable UFP? Once every 500 battles?
The only buff this change causes is possibly slightly less arty splash when they hit the ground diagonally from the corner. Possibly.
Yeah as I said, it's BARELY a buff, more of really a realism improvement, WHICH happens to be in favor of E-100 for once.
So I was reading a thread about people with no tier 10 after like 5-10k battles. They all said tier X was shit and lower tiers are much better.
Is this the case or am I looking at some shitlords here
T10 is arty and camping. T8 and T9 are technically where the best gameplay lies, since you actually have to plan more than just shooting anything that moves with bullshit penetration and damage.

Tier 10 battles: load gold and point and click
get hit by tier 8 arty
die
Makes sense. Still want my IS7 and eventually the jag E100

Get the 183 instead. JPE is a piece of shit.

I would agree Tier 8 is the "core" gameplay with most armor effect and most tactics, but I wouldn't entirely diss tier 10 either.
Mainly since the arty nerf it ain't bad at all.
I didn't really want to win and get Ace Tanker anyway.

Heh, I'll take it from an owner, guess ill stop playing German TDs, none of the others really interest me but the stug and kind of the jagpanther.
I'm so gonna make a CoH sound mod, German Steeeeeel

There's some truth to that, but mostly it's just them rationalizing their inability to finish the grind all the way
[QUOTE=Crumpet;39702699]Heh, I'll take it from an owner, guess ill stop playing German TDs, none of the others really interest me but the stug and kind of the jagpanther.[/QUOTE]
No no. The JT fucks up preposterous amounts of shit. It's the most effective TD at tier 9 for me atleast. JPE is the only thing that you should ignore.
Get the 183, and get the Jagdraper. The JP and Ferd are both great tanks too, so the grind is easy.
And so the world (nearly if it weren't for fucking lemon teams) burnt

I only have Ace Tanker at Tier 9 on my IS-8 because I managed to get it when it was released and everyone was poopy at driving it except for me since it was basically a fast IS-3.
I don't have Ace Tanker on my T-54. :suicide:
