“Ah War Thunder, the game where the planes look more lifelike than in the movies, has better frames per second, and is less computer-taxing than World of Tanks.”

Because it uses different engine….

” – the bug where trees produced weird “hedgehog” like artifacts was fixed, Storm writes he’ll see how that went in test 2 (SS: test 2 is planned for 12.12. IIRC)”

Aww. I liked the hedgehog trees :\

Hopefully they get around to fixing the other issues as well. I haven’t had track traces show up in test whether they were on or off, and cloud shadows act…weird on my video card. Less shadows are more shiny puddles that freak the hell out depending on the view angle.

Keeping in mind that I don’t care one way or another about the STB-1 at the moment, as in my opinion test server results are unreliable at best:

Like you said, 6 of it is hydraulic. I doubt very much that the tank was capable of moving while its tracks were lowered; the version in game has nearly as much gun depression, while staying completely mobile, as the real tank did while presumably immobile.

Arguing “but it’s historical” in this case is a bit silly.

So last post we had a guy saying how much better the Leopard was compared to the STB-1, and now they are nerfing the STB-1?

How come a tank is worse than its competitor and it’s still nerfed, or it’s just because the russian players were crying about it?

Yes, please nerf the new med instead of nerfing the terrible trolltank Waffenträger auf E100. Expect to see at least 3-4 of them in every battle in a few weeks. This games is getting shittier every week.

I agree with akspecs and tronicson.

I’ve thoroughly tested the Japanese line, and have not been overly impressed with tanks that seem to me to be little more than an amalgamation of British and German tanks.

…except with the STB-1, that is! It felt like a better-armored, slightly less mobile, less-accurate Leopard 1. I thought it seemed perfectly balanced, especially since you won’t be hitting anything on the move, like you can with the Leopard 1. I would have ground the entire tree just to get the STB-1. I think it’s a very unique tank. Now? I’ll see how these nerfs affect it, but I doubt it’ll be a top priority.
