Hello everyone,
check out Listy’s articles on one of the best StuG aces and about personal soldier armor
- apparently, the feature where top three players of losing team get extra credits will not be implemented
- Chi-Ri had several variants of suspension, it’s possible that one of the heavier ones with 88mm will be added to the heavy Japanese tank branch (SS: SerB is mistaken here. The 88mm Chi-Ri is a fake, started by American engineers exploring the Japanese vehicle plans after the war)
- Chinese-used Chi-Ha did not have any special Chinese designation
- apparently, SerB is participating in alphatesting of WoWs, but he’s hiding
- when removing interface in battle (pressing V), FPS goes up a lot? “Most likely your card doesn’t do well with Scaleform – that’s a Flash-like engine, widely used for interface creation. Please note that we are not responsible for Scaleform-based mod optimization.”
- Storm realizes that STA-2 (upcoming Japanese premium) is worse than STA-1, but “unfortunately, we haven’t simply found any other candidate”
- Evilly states that in 9.5 or 9.6, premium vehicle profitability will be further buffed (“indirectly”)
- it’s possible that the AFK punishment system will be changed to take game crashes into account
- Storm states that the difference between FV215b (183) and FV4005 Stage 2 will be: “One will be armored and slow, the other unrarmored and relatively fast.”
- Storm himself is bothered by the modellers always saying “sorry, we don’t have any new HD models for this patch”, but he can’t do anything about it
- there will be third test of 9.4
- Storm states that the situation where on GTX550Ti enabling shadows causes you to lose 20 FPS is normal
- apparently, the feature where top three players of losing team get extra credits will not be implemented
This is exactly the reason why this game is worse and worse every day. They keep luring new players who keeps screwing up games but you don’t get anything from trying to carry the game. Time for Artillery only.
This game has been getting worse LITERALLY EVERY DAY for the past two years I’ve been playing it? Damn, I never noticed.
It’s almost like that is entirely your opinion and is not supported by any facts at all.
oh wait.
It was not that bad before they started releasing these TV shots and commercials at all. I usally say that the game itself is not that bad but players makes it look like crap.
Hey, guess what ?
Man the fuck up and play or quit.
Bitchin’ ain’t helping unless it works for you like a mental therapy.
You mean those that appeared even before official release two years ago? Wow~
Do not be a crybaby. Become a battle hero, you will receive +50% of credits and XP (score High Calibre, or few other rewards).
So, what if it’s a 15-1 stomp? Do those top 3 really deserve extra? Not always, no.
If match ends with score 15-1 the game was basically 3 vs 27.
You already get it for battle hero, they just are not expanding it to include the least bad of your supposed fail team.
this. those rewards should be worked hard for
git gud scrub
I’m happy to see that only the victors regularly get the spoils. It is how it should be.
Hey, have you seen the finnish Pz4, it’s at 100k euros now, not really a worthless wreck apparently :P
- Evilly states that in 9.5 or 9.6, premium vehicle profitability will be further buffed (“indirectly”)
How? How?:p
Lowering ammo/repair cost e.g.?
Probably. And while some prem tanks have already low repair or sell costs, there are exceptions (SU-100Y: 1,1k credit normal ammo)
T-34-3′s ammo is also at around 1k credits. Not a lot if it does 390 base damage, but the gun also misses a lot more than some other.
Lel. SU-100Y earns money even when you firing mostly sprem (Which you should do because most of the time the extra damage is well worth it).
oh yes, please lower ammo and repairs cost :D

I see the following options ….
- x% bonus on free XP
- lowering its service costs
Are you a tard, or what? They are NEVER ging to add a bonus for free XP, even after the last buff the addidional XP on premium vehicles is in a separate category (mission completed).
What will happen is the lower repair cost.
You never now what will happen. Of course they don’t give +50% on free XP, but an additional bonus of +15% on free XP is possible.
Another option is that premiums always start with x3 for a win.

“- it’s possible that the AFK punishment system will be changed to take game crashes into account”
FINALLY! Had that last week, while loading into match, Alt-Tab’ed for a second to desktop, when I wanted to go back – game crashed. OFC got AFK warning, cause when finally logged back, my tank was already destroyed…
This shit happens all the time, there are hundreds of causes so it’s a bit tricky to blame anyone.
Good thing they make AFK system take game crashes in to account
NO. This is a bad idea. Why? Because most crashes is because of mods – something ,that WG can not control (and lazy dumbasses that are not updating their mods, just copying the folder…). If the game will be not punishing AFKers whose game crashed, then this will be abused by boters.
Pretty much. New botting program – launch game, log in, jump in battle, crash client, repeat.
Please remind that it is not your intention to let your game crash. It is annoying when you return and your tank is destroyed, I always feel sorry for my team and I hope this punishment update comes soon.
Storm states that the situation where on GTX550Ti enabling shadows causes you to lose 20 FPS is normal
How is this normal?? The game is crappy optimized
It is not a very powerful GPU and shadows will require some computing power which results in lower performance, no matter what the degree of optimisation is.
Manufacturer design fault, this happens periodically in GPU’s. Sometimes an entire series of cards can have some handicaps. Just like this one with shadows.
So yeah, WoT may not be optimized but it’s not always their fault, really.
Yeah 550ti is really not any high end and not even new GPU :(
It’s pretty old now, isn’t it. Like 3 or 4 years? Not exactly state of the art any more…
*looks sadly at my own 660Ti*
- Storm realizes that STA-2 (upcoming Japanese premium) is worse than STA-1, but “unfortunately, we haven’t simply found any other candidate”
what did I say! who would pay for this junk?
People bought the Chi Nu Kai. People will buy that thing.
chi nu kai is nice! but sta2 is nothing alike! plus the competition at t8 -9 is better!
People who fap to little cartoon schoolgirls
It’s a premium tank, it’s supposed to be worse, though not seeing T10s will make up for a lot of it’s flaws like the type 59.
I would, actually. I really like the design (the front and the gun, especially).
It’s not always about performance, you see – that’s just an extra reason.
So a premium tank is worse than a regular tankof the same tier. Big surprise. Wasn’t that supposed to be how prem tanks were designed?
“- Chi-Ri had several variants of suspension, it’s possible that one of the heavier ones with 88mm will be added to the heavy Japanese tank branch (SS: SerB is mistaken here. The 88mm Chi-Ri is a fake, started by American engineers exploring the Japanese vehicle plans after the war)”
Because fake tanks is completely uncharted territory for WG…
Now, would this mean that the 88mm Chi-Ri would be at tier 6 in that line? If I remember correctly the O-I super heavy tank would at tiers 7 (100 ton version) and 8 (120 ton).
Last time I’ve heard O-I is tier 8 in it’s fully historical parameters…. about which we don’t know much anyway.
There were also rumors about some moving Pillbox tank for Japanese army in Manchuria that could take the spot at highier tier.
but I could be wrong.
But, if I remember correctly, from one of Dai’s post on this subject, a year ago,I’m pretty sure she posted it being at tier 7 also (of course it could also mean my memory is failing me). Oh well, I’m just happy about having at least some news related to the heavy line.
Well, SerB is not a tank specialist so he could go wrong with that, we can only hope that Pasholok will correct him soon enough.
Is FV4005 going to be like FV304? It would make sense with things WG is releasing recently.
One is large turreted TD and the other a small SPG. I can’t see them being that similar. When they say it will be faster they compared to the 183.
Imagine FV 183 with no chance of bouncing and being faster. I wouldn’t comapre it with FV304 which is an SPG and has satellite view which gives it a tremendous orientation for a such fast tank.
- Storm states that the difference between FV215b (183) and FV4005 Stage 2 will be: “One will be armored and slow, the other unrarmored and relatively fast.”
Kinda confirms my theory from yesterday about giving it the Centurion 7′s engine. Gun handling will probably be slightly better to compensate for increased bloom upon moving due to better mobility.
- Chinese-used Chi-Ha did not have any special Chinese designation
is the research team at WG completely dumb or website isn’t in russian so they can’t understand this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gongchen_tank
That was the name given to a single tank modified with a 47mm gun. Not a complete series of tanks.
but the PLA captured are all chi-ha kais, which has 47mm as standard. And isnt just one chi ha kai is locally modify, all PLA chi has are
- apparently, the feature where top three players of losing team get extra credits will not be implemented
I’d be more surprised if they did implement it…
- when removing interface in battle (pressing V), FPS goes up a lot? “Most likely your card doesn’t do well with Scaleform – that’s a Flash-like engine, widely used for interface creation. Please note that we are not responsible for Scaleform-based mod optimization.”
Oh look, a fucking 780 ti doesn’t do well with your trash software, it’s obviously the GPU fault!
isnt this (scaleform) CPU-based ? I believe it is.
Unlikely. You think just because the UI elements are 2d it doesn’t use your GPU?
“apparently, the feature where top three players of losing team get extra credits will not be implemented”
too bad, i’d get money on most losses then..
- Storm states that the situation where on GTX550Ti enabling shadows causes you to lose 20 FPS is normal
______________
Any fps loss in WoT is normal, any fps increase is miracle :D
The top three on the losing side was the only reason I was going to keep playing on the fail retarded asian server, it’s just full of retards.
- Storm himself is bothered by the modellers always saying “sorry, we don’t have any new HD models for this patch”, but he can’t do anything about it.
How about not paying them any money or hiring ones that can deliver?
