Hello everyone,
English version of ASAP video with Miroslav “Veider” Kargin.
Inside:
- new HD tanks T-34, IS-7, ISU-152, M3 Lee, M5 Stuart and Jagdpanther
- M24 Chaffee also reworked to HD and rebalanced, got new improved maximum speed (70 km/h)
- KV-1S split to KV-1S and KV-85
- new LT’s (Soviet, German, USA)
- T57 Heavy was rebalanced, T92, Object 430 as well
- Murovanka was reworked heavily
- hangar interface was reworked
- new effects of explosions (check out the video, cool stuff)
- the anti-AFK/suicider/leaver system
- bonus for “tanking” (for shells blocked by armor), for heaviest vehicles it will provide up to 10 percent bonus to current XP, this bonus will be disabled for arty and light tanks
- engine/transmission split (transmission damage works like engine damage – same effect, only without burning)
- stronghold improvements (new tiers) and others (see the video)
- new HD tanks T-34, IS-7, ISU-152, M3 Lee, M5 Stuart and Jagdpanther
IS-7? Wat? Ehm… ill take it :D
The IS-7 is soo ugly now whitout the machine gun on top of the turret
That’s what I love with this 9.3, no more TV antenna on the IS-7, now it looks good!
Also, need clarification: with the new engine-transmission split, will that mean that, if for example you slam the lower glacis of a german tank and damage it’s transmission, this will be a 0dmg pen? Kinda like shooting at viewing devices?
Because as I saw the video, the tank that had a damaged engine looked still at full HP.
Trans. is not an external module.
Machine gun went to Ukraine.
Rest of the tank soon to follow.
Good one :)
and holes in the muzzle break, good …
the MG is still ther btw. its just stored. but its better now, youe allways was spotted while the only see that fkn MG …
MG wasnt a visibility check point. Stop lying.
GJ potato, you dont even know how visibility checks work. You could have never been spotted because of that MG.
Holy cr*p, does that mean that my big-as** germans will now cease to go down in a huge fire if the engine got touched? Maaaaaaan I think it’s time to re-buy the King Tiger :D (not that it was a big problem in the last days, as we got pretty much “bombed” with automatic fire extinguisher systems)
*If the transmission got touched* No more fire from LFP penetration on most german tanks.
“most german tanks.”
Not yet, only tiers 8-10
Wrong. Even tanks like M4 Sherman has the transmission located in the front. How to understand it? check for the gear that gives traction to the tank
And absolutely nothing you said had any relevance to the point I was making
off:

Do I smell an increase in Maus’s ingame?? ;)
LOl mause most ussles, it cant tank, VK B now doing better this role, mause to weak.
You’re ignorant.
What do you mean Maus can’t tank? Maus is probably the most capable in the hands of a good player if you want to tank. Of course, bad players always do bad in the Maus while VK is much more forgiving. Also, VK can’t tank nearly as good as the Maus with regards to the turret and angling, ONLY thing that is slightly stronger on VK is the lower plate, but that’s mostly irrelevant if you know what you’re doing in the Maus.
Guy can’t even finish a single fucking sentence without fucking it up. I think the ignorance comment was rhetorical.
SENTINEL!!! :O
1:23 – 1:28
OBLIGATORY COCK-JOKE!
AND T54E2!!! (i think)
Oh yeah, you’re right! Looked like a T95E6 at first to me.
Nice spot, whats the tank to the left? The new american Clan reward tank?
Not only a sentinel but also what seems to be a American T54E2 or something along those lines there aswell
dem hd models
Seems like a really puny amount of experience for tanking. “up to 10%”. Worthless. The damage heavy tanks get far, far more than that for doing what they do best.
Get 700 XP. Tank – get 770.
Not puny.
Considering the other heavies did much more damage, that 70 is puny. They got 200 more just for their boom.
Track absorption doesn’t count either, because reasons.
Probably because shooting the tracks is something the enemy would aim to do? Like tracking to stop a charging tank, or tracking a TD so that it would not turn on you, tracking a light tank. Even if the tracks absorb the shell in these situations it is still something the shoot would want.
You essentially want to be rewarded for being beaten ?
You entitled schmucks can’t seriously be this narrow sighted?
You essentially want to be rewarded for being beaten ?
THEN WHY WOULD YOU ADD THIS IF YOU DON’T WANT TO GET REWARDED FOR BEING BEATEN???
Because when you bounce, the enemies shot gets wasted.
- engine/transmission split (transmission
damage works like engine damage –
same effect, only without burning)
*german tech tree is dancing like nobody is spotting*
Chinese and Japanese are happy too.
You’re ignorant!
Chinese has fuel tanks there. Dunno ’bout japs.
Looks like japs do have frontal transmission, except for STB.
They do, so do some americans: Hellcat, T28 and shermy spring to mind.
Chinese indeed have fuel tanks meaning they’ll burn just as brightly hehe.
Not allowed to set E75s and E100s on fire frontally anymore?
I might just cry.
Well, at least they’ll be immobile for a bit. Arty is gonna have fun.
Is that a T54E2 I see during the T49 part?…..
Russian version of ASAP video (for now) with Miroslav “Veider” Kargin.
________________
Isn’t he Stanislav? :D
Stanislav, Miroslav, Warsaw – who cares :D
Is it just me or does it seem the IS-7 now has a better slope on the lower plate?
tought im the only one maybe the way its camera positionated but i hope its slope
What the hell did they thought when they “balanced” the KV-1S???
They just made it look bad and the damn weapons are the same!!!
122mm: 20s reload – 4.6s aim time – -3dep.
Sure xDDD
And don’t forget about the .5 accuracy (if memories serves me correctly)… but then again its Russian so .5 is actually .1 accuracy.
Yeah, everytime i play with the KV-1 with the 122mm it doesn’t miss ever. Even if I am moving the damn gun hits like it’s something normal. But when i shoot with a TD like the Stug III G with the derp gun it never hits while moving.
i must say… best patch in quite a while. GG and this is from someone who usually constantly complains about stuff. quite an interesting patch.
M6Alien, where are you~… ):
“bonus for “tanking”… will be disabled for arty and light tanks”
But what about lower tier light tanks like the AMX 40, Valentine, and T-127?
How terrible…
I’d actually like to know the reason for prohibiting the bonus for lights and arties…
Does seem a bit strange to exclude things. There are a few arty and lights, notably the new Light T-54 that can tank quite well.
Panzer II J would be even more ridiculous
never knew Spock was a designer on WoT…
so will we have to hold 15 stronghold players in reserve waiting to get attacked or not? that would be lame.
You only get attacked in the time you set, in which you’ll be attacking at the same time, so I’d hope you’d be able to field a team. Don’t want to be attacked? Don’t attack.
Did they made this videos in 9.3 version, or on the supertest one, beacuse I think that it’s pretty damn obvious that tanks in this ASAP have independent suspension. It can be seen clearly on IS-7 and T49 showcase.
New suspension is model-dependent. HD-reworked models will always have independent suspension, as will new tank models because WG no longer has low-quality models made. Putting old-style suspension on HD models would just make more work later, since the new suspension will tie into the upcoming physics patch.
The video was probably made using the test client, what with it opening tomorrow, but they could have just as easily done in in a 9.2 client if they wanted to.
Ok, thanks for clarification.
Wasnt it confirmed that 9.3 test server will be out today?
Uhm, am i the only one that saw ingame replay manager in ASAP 9.3?
Anyone?
M5 Stuart = most unnecessary and unwanted HD tank ever. they prolly done it cuz of the M5 nerf.
WHICH MORON WHINED FOR THAT NERF, I’LL FUCKING !@#$% YOU MORON.
If increased speed limit, better ground resistance, HP buff and an autoloader constitute a nerf, I can think of a few other tanks that need nerfed as well.
They said probably close to a year ago now that the M5 would be getting changed up to be more akin to the M5A1 in the Chinese tree
So there will be HD t-34 but not type t-34… why?
inb4 RUSSIAN BAIS11!!!!!!!11!!!11!!!ONEONE111!!11
this bonus will be disabled for arty and light tanks
AMX-40,Pz 38H 735 (f), Pz 2J and AMX-38 drivers thank you for this wise fucking decision.
Australian cruiser IV Sentinel at 1:26!
In the vidio 0:41, the caffee’s suspension does not lock “stright lined” as of curent ingame.
Are those independent suspension wheels?
1:14 -> 1:22 those “wheels” in motion O.O
Well it is getting turned into HD this patch… :)
