8.10 test to start next week

Source: Wargaming RU

Hello everyone,

apparently, the test 8.10 will start on either 27.11. or 28.11. (next week Thursday or Friday). The date for the patch itself is not set yet from what I know, but it has been confirmed to appear “before Christmas”, so I’d expect 3rd week of December.

Megafactories: Wargaming

Hello everyone,

as was reported before by many people, including WG producer Slava Makarov and Overlord, Wargaming recently appeared (will appear, depends on your timezone) on the National Geographic show “Ultimate Factories“.

Now, in order to watch it, you have to have National Geographic in the first place. Here (Czech Republic), it’s a part of some cable bundles and whatnot. Some regions don’t have access to it whatsoever.

So, you are interested in this show, but can’t access it? How terrible. Luckily for you, “someone” uploaded the English part on the internet. You can download it here. It’s an interesting show, enjoy!

Alienware codes giveaway

Hello everyone,

Alienware is giving out 300g + 1 day premium bonus codes to all players.

European version for EU accounts
American version for US accounts

The problem is, I was away whole morning and when I came back (now), the pages say they are overloaded and to try again shortly – so I have absolutely no idea whether there are any codes left. Thanks to the 40 or so folks, who sent me message about it too :)

Edit: yes, it still works. There are cca 6300 codes left as of now for EU server. Note that you CANNOT redeem more than one code on your account, so it’s pointless to make more Alienware accounts to get more codes.

Storm posts on 8.10 fixes

Hello everyone,

Storm posted another “microdigest” post about what will happen in 8.10 – this time, it’s about bug fixes in 8.10. Storm states he’s slowly putting a list of them together. Amongst other things to appear in 8.10 will be (the list is not complete):

- from 8.10, “soft” objects (fences, benches, stone walls etc.) will be penetrable by AP and APCR shells – penetrating such an object will reduce shell’s penetration capability and the object will get destroyed
- fixed statistics bug appearing on some tanks and with some players after 8.9
- fixed the armor of the “IS-3″ turret on WZ-111 1-4

So, according to the SEA server info, there is a transfer open from SEA to US. Vietnamese region only.

- historically, the T-54 before T-62A is correct, there will apparently be no new tier 9 tank to replace the T-54 as a T-62 predecessor (it will stay as it is now)
- the crew XP per battle value has an error (displays half of what it should be), it’s just an UI error (will be fixed)

World of Warplanes server stats

Hello everyone,

Slava Makarov (WG producer) states that Sunday peaks (most players online at the same time) in WoWp are as follows:

RU 18577
EU 10593
NA 3065

Peak for all servers altogether at one point is around 30k players. The fastest growing server is the EU one, the slowest is the RU one, Slava Makarov states that there is a suspicion this is connected to clanwars.

How to register on FTR and how to add your own avatar

Hello everyone,

since a bunch of folks wrote me yesterday about not knowing how to register or login to FTR to comment (strange, I thought it’s actually pretty simple), I’ll just post this here. If you are not log on, open the post you want to comment on and on the bottom, you will see this:

login

Just pick your poison… or rather, the social service you want to use to log in. Statistically, most people use WordPress accounts, followed by google accounts. Oh and if you are wondering, how to add an avatar to your account, well, that’s a bit unintuitive. Here’s how to do it:

You’ll need to sign up at http://www.gravatar.com with the email address that you’ve associated in your blog with your admin user account, and upload you image to gravatar.com. After you’ve done that your gravatar.com image will appear whenever you post on your own blog or on other WordPress blogs (if you put that email address into the mail field of the comment form at that other blog).

I hope that helps.
