  1. Really getting worried now. Most of these “new” HD textures make the tanks look worse than the old ones. That Maus is awful, looks like a cheap plastic toy. Please WG don’t do anymore of these HD models until you get rid of that horrible plastic feel.

    • Don’t want to break your dreams, but most metal things (tanks, cars, etc) look like plastic toys when looked at from a certain height above. Unless you stand by them, it’s difficult to perceive their height and mass, if you look from a ‘copter, everything looks like plastics toys.

      Example: http://www.military-today.com/tanks/k2_black_panther_mbt.jpg
      And that’s not metal, that’s composite armour – still looks like a plastic toy, since you lose details.

    • Agree with Nya-chan here.
      Google ‘painted iron’ or ‘painted steel’ and it’ll look pretty much as it is in these screenies

  2. That Maus demands a good skin for it, and I already annoyed someone enough to make one for me ;)

  3. Germans look very unnatural. Details are great but textures seem strange.
    Other nations look very good except that Hellcat that feels just like the germans.
    That M103 and that Tortoise, jeez!

    • somehow i think some tanks are just retouched with better textures+bumpmaps.

    • Hats off to you kind sir, for if not you, i wouldn’t have checked the launcher for any available updates long after this most exquisite moment.

  4. Is it just me or do the M103 and Hellcat look sort of different?

    I remember the M103 turret being way more round. And the Hellcat´s turret seems to be further to the front than it used to.

    I may be imagining things though…

  5. Bla bla people complain when tanks look like irl, what made me wonder though is the maus LFP, does it look more sloped? If so then I might just grind it for the new lack of weakspots.

  6. the new Panther model is wrong and the suspensions is way too high, it’s even bigger than the Panther 2

  7. Why haven’t they added fuel tanks on the back of a Maus. It would enhance the HD feeling much more. Like this it looks pretty much the same, only more shinier.

  8. Is it just me, or does it look like the new Tortoise model has more sloping on the front?

    • The skin is fine. Nothing wrong with it, it doesn’t look pitch black at all lol.

  10. Look at my BEAUTIFUL Maus…can’t wait to play with it. :D

    P.S. Can we get some screenies of these new HD tanks with camo patterns on them would like to see what my camo will look like on them…thanks :)
