Titled "Steel Wall"
So I wanted to get the tracks for my T32. I got 3 good games. I was worried.
I get completely dicked over the moment I get tracks and mount my 105.
PREDICTABLE.
[quote]- Japanese tree: "when it's done it's done"
[B]- there might be new premium arty vehicles, but not hightier ones[/B]
- SerB does play random battles on RU server, unfortunately it happens that when he appears in battle, his team goes "OMG WE GOT SERB NOW WE KILL EVERYONEOMG!!!!11111"
- ST-I won't be included in the "Lion of Sinai" medal, but it's possible Chinese IS-2 will
- there is a possibility that the field of Malinovka will be re-worked (SS: as in "made more bumpy") ("if it needs to be reworked, we'll do it")
- Q: "Will the second heavy French tank branch start from M4 (1945)?" A: "We'll see" - no info about when it'll come ("WIDID")
- the MM doesn't "prefer" any battle mode, if you have encounter and assault enabled, on average (SS: !!!!) they should be roughly equal
- SerB states that vast majority of lags is caused by ISP's, SerB advises the players to use "pingplotter" (SS: is that a word for packet tracing?)
- SerB doesn't use interface mods
- there is no difference (in splash) when the arty HE shell hits a spot near a tank and the tank is standing in water or on hard ground (SS: in other words, water does not reduce splash)
- there won't be another "Lion of Sinai"-like archievement for middle-east battles (Centurions...)
- Q: "Why won't there be a Stalingrad map? So that tollerant Europeans aren't offended?" A: "No, so idiots don't ask stupid questions such as 'why is there a map named Stalingrad in the Moscow CW province?' However, idiots will always find things to whine about."
- Chinese players do ask about more Chinese maps, but they don't ask Wargaming, they ask WG's Chinese partners
[B]- British TD and arty branches are ready and will be introduced one after another, Chinese TD's (SS: and arty? not clear) have vehicles missing in mid tiers, the Chinese will have a TD based on the M5 Stuart that will quite possibly use its radio and engine (SS: it's basically a Stuart tank with turret removed and a 57mm gun (SU-76 style) installed in the frontal part), it's possible some other modules from other lowtier tanks will be used in the TD line also[/B]
- it's not yet decided whether and how crew perks/skill will work in historical battles
- it's possible Panzer B2 will appear in the gift shop (SS: Russian GS that is) during some special events, not guaranteed however
[B]- (Premium) Type 59 might have its MM weight changed "if necessery"[/B]
- drawing distance (SS: NOT view range) depends on the angle and direction you are looking at (diagonally it's longer), it is however the same on all the maps
- SerB states that (Russian) players making clans with names like Totenkopf, Leibstandarte and Das Reich will not be banned straight away, because they are usually just little kiddie idiots. If they keep doing that, they get banned
- SerB is a Russian citizen - he doesn't have clear preference between Russia, Belarus and Ukraine, he might write a memory book when he retires
- autoaim works on both client- and server-side, it's practically useless when the target's movement is perpendicular to yours
- confirmed: new arty pieces (when the arty branch is prolonged to tier 10) do not have to be inserted after tier 6 or 7, but anywhere really, it's also not guaranteed that the economical model (profit, costs) of current tier 8 arties will remain the same at tier 10
- the average age of WG employees is 25-30, but the developers are somewhat older
- regarding the MM, MM does not guarantee you will get the opposite vehicles of the same weight, only the total team MM weights have to match
[B]- other ideas of arty change were considered (SS: changes in the satellite view etc), but those were deemed bad[/B]
- new decals and writings might be introduced, possibly as awards (for something)
- ammo size is generally historical, with a few balance exceptions
- Leopard 1 will have the L7A3 gun, it will have "magical" golden HE rounds (SS: earlier HESH was mentioned), that will comply with Wargaming's historical data (SS: the underlining made by SerB)
- FCM50t has the profitability comparable to other tier 8 premium tanks
- Lowe won't be replaced by another tank (SS: no idea where that came from), players won't be able to sell premium tanks for gold
- Chinese IS-2's frontal armor angle is 60 degrees, the 90mm frontal armor is historical and so is the depression
- Q: "Will there be other German post-war vehicles apart from Leopard?" A: "If you find some right ones, we'll implement them"
[B]- Russian WoT portal has the new version of US and French trees (Changes: French - 2nd medium line is gone, US - Christie tanks are gone)[/B]
- SLI support is being developed, the number of the patch where it will be is going to be announced
- there are no plans for 2nd tier 1 tanks
- Q: "Will there be a change in the high tier battle economy?" A: "If necessery - and we define what's necessery"
- SerB would like to have a project with a clearly defined "end" (when everything is done and implemented), he states that it is unfortunately not possible
- there might be a transition from the French heavy branch to the TD branch, not clear how
- some map elements are not penetreable (for example telephone booths) because it is technically difficult to implement, but it might be implemented in the future, it's not considered critically important for the gameplay
- T-34-2 is unlikely to get buffed at this point
[B]- it's possible Soviet IS-2 will appear as a tier 8 heavy tank[/B][/quote]
[quote]A bug has been discovered and confirmed by the developers: if you load up your tank with golden shells for silver and shoot them while you selected automatic reload on the tank repair and ammo screen, if you have gold, the shells will be bought for gold and not for silver. Be careful. Developers suggest that if you insist on using gold shells for silver while you have some gold on your account, you should stop using automatic reload after each battle.[/quote]

Time to get my panzer II crew skills even higher! :v:
Should I even bother going up the french heavy line. I've finally gotten the big gun for the g1b and I am curious if I should even bother.

G1B is fun one-shoting low tiers, just make sure you go city wherever possible. In the open you will get fucked up.

Murder on the western flank.
so i picked up the game again after abandoning it for a year.
holy shit i dont remember the game being this confusing.
if you were to ask me what my overall progress in the game was i could not tell you
[QUOTE=Skwee;39346995]Should I even bother going up the french heavy line. I've finally gotten the big gun for the g1b and I am curious if I should even bother.[/QUOTE]
The tier 8 is fun, and the tier 9 is amazing with the best gun. The tier 10 is great as well, but the tier 9 is basically the same tank with less HP and a bit longer reload.
I can't comment on the others tanks in the tree as I played them a long time ago.

There's not really an overall progress defined by the game, rather it's up to the player to chose what their goal(s) are (it's kind of nice to be honest).
What do you find confusing?
played in tank companies for the first time in a year or so
won every match except one, played with boboerror's clan so we had a lot of coordination (and fun)
used my hellcat

the tech tree and how to unlock new tanks in the tree
also i cant determine which tanks are the best while browsing the tank store
[editline]24th January 2013[/editline]
and i dont know how the tanks i own compare to each other (i.e. which one of my tanks is the better one)

When you have enough exp press the green button underneath their icons
Also tanks aren't necessarily better than each other... right-click and look at details for ROF/accuracy/etc. I'd recommend comparing their individual modules though because every stock tank is garbage

there's generally no "better one" except for a couple of exceptions, most tanks play just as well depending on the player himself, each tank requires a specific playstyle that might or might not fit you.
Yeah the tech tree is shit now.
[QUOTE=cccino;39348111]Yeah the tech tree is shit now.[/QUOTE]
yeah it feels harder to read or something compared to the old vertical style one i remember
there's a mod that switches it to vertical
[url]http://forum.worldoftanks.com/index.php?/topic/198989-083-danreddas-vertical-tech-tree/[/url]
horizontal tech tree is shit i agree
Finally got the 128mm for the Jgpanther II. Okay yeah, it's a lot better now.
All shots I had in the first game I tried it did over 500 damage. Fine by me.
I absolutely hate trying to get the finishing blow on a tank, KNOWING that your gun has enough damage to one shot it.
and then you roll the lowest POSSIBLE damage roll with your gun and you're like
WARRRRGAAAAMIIIIINNGGGGG
