“- the difference between FV4005 and FV215b is that it has much less armor, but good mobility”

Heh, “good mobility”.

Lets say that you have two men. Both of them walk with a limp, at equal speed, but you want one of them to walk faster.

The average person’s solution: “ok, lets make one of the men walk without a limp, that way one of them will be faster.”

WG’s solution: “ok, lets remove the legs of one of the men, that way one of them will be faster.”

The difference of course being that one of these solutions is reasonable and one is WG-typical pants-on-head retarded. Unfortunately, WG’s game, so the latter was applied to the 215b.

There’s a difference between “good mobility” and “roughly as mobile as the 215b was before we arbitrarily nerfed the shit out of its mobility and maneuverability”.

“- some maps were smoothened (hills made flatter) to make life easier for tanks with bad depression”

“We know that most nations have passable to good gun depression, but we’re going to change all maps to better suit the two that don’t.”
Oh, WG, never change.

Smoothed hills? So this is further dumbing down the game by making maps easier for everyone and also power creeping the Russians?

You mean Russian tanks…

Noticed the tracks of the object? They lay on the road wheels and behaved like real tracks.
Is this X-Box footage or do they implement better animations now?

Actually Panther suspension was developed to overcome bumpy terrain or at least compensate a bit. But the physics of WOT are not sophisticated enough to immitate more realistic movement and behaviour of tanks.

I wish that WG would have had the forethought to make that “team battles only” map (Ghost City?) into an Encounter map for random pubs as well. There’s a severe lack of encounter maps (as well as Assault maps) for randoms, which is a major reason why I turn those modes off. It gets boring having to play Encounter and/or Assault mode battles on the same tiny subset of maps. FFS, is it so hard to add more Encounter and Assault mode maps?

No matter how much that piece of shit is nerfed it’s not enough until it’s removed from the game together with other cancerous T10 TDs. Fuck your nobrain tanks.

Don’t forget the bend or corner in the tunnel, so they can peek a boo each other. How cute.

With the cable situation affecting (many) Australian / New Zealand players on the Asia server at the moment, my ping to the CT might actually be only slightly worse than the live server…

my T49 with 76mm penetration and 0,6 accuracy dont agree, with it i can hit (and penetrate) weak parts of armor at +-300m most of the time… so as long as you pick targets that are not looking at you, i dont see problem with it… and no, i havent played 183 after nerf, so our opinions may vary ;-)
