It wasn’t just a visual model change, WG changed it based on schematics, IIRC the old IS-3 was measured on an existing tank, and they corrected it using some schematics they found(?). As such, the armor thickness, distribution, and angles were changed accordingly ingame.

The model was just incorrectly made, the stats were made assuming the model was correct, I doubt there will be any changes to its stats.

The Ferdinand hull was smaller than the TigerP’s hull (Which if you remember, is built on it). They corrected it. Don’t get your panties in a bunch.

My FPS has drastically improved in the second part of this test. I’m happy about that. Not as excited about the new Japanese color, but it’s not as bad as I originally thought it was going to be. I suppose it makes more sense for the late tier Japanese tanks from a historical perspective.

Glad the graphical glitches are gone too.

” For the ‘Type 5 Ke-Ho’ the battle level range was decreased (SS: to 4-6)”

So no scout matchmaking for the tier IV light tank? \o/

The new jap color is really bad. Its just a Generic Green.

They did increase the overall quality of effects, a drop in frame rate is expected. (But not as big as it was in the first test. :P)

Even with the server down, you can still run replays to test the graphics on the new client.

I’ve been using FRAPS for fps benchmarks. Result: the fps is much better than in test one, but still nowhere near as high as they are if the same replay is run in 8.9.

For the same (8.9) replay, I get 33 fps in 8.9, 23 fps in 8.10 test 1, and now 28 fps in 8.10 test 2 with all on max settings.
