SS, is this tech tree really correct ?
If so, how do they handle the replacement of the Hotchkiss H35 with the FCM 36 ?
Are we supposed to unlock the FCM 36 or will it come like the Pz. IV Ausf. A&D ?

It will be only a dozen battles to get the Tier 2′s done, but the current approach already annoys me. They force us to either buy and equip the Hotchkiss H35 in addition to the Renault FT to get the new french low-tiers or to spend the precious free XP …

Seems like I do have to grind myself through the AMX 12t … oh the agony … :P Even though connecting the AMX-30 with the 13 90 makes just as much sense as connecting the Sherman Firefly with the Challenger …

Also, tbh , I think it would have made the same amout of sense to put the AMX-40
( thisone : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMX-40 ) in as tier 10 , the AMx-30 Prot at tier 8 , the AMX-30B at 9 and it could have came from the heavy line …

And before you say it’s too modern, here are a few that were desinged and the same time :
* STB-1 ( aka. Type 74 , 1975 , still in use )
* WZ-121 (aka. Type-69/79 , 1982 , still in use )

Or if the 40 is really that modern .. rthen the AMX-32 would do either way I guess…

Anyways, these things look awsome, the new HD stuff look a lot better then the first ones that got into the game.

Yeah, its a shame that the previously made HD models were out-sourced and look like shit. Sure they have more polygons, but the textures aren’t that good and no more details than most of the SD tanks. Xbone HD tanks look much better than those on PC, because of better textures. Hopefully BigWorld can render it. The inconsistencies from batch of HD models to the next is really annoying. SS, didn’t WG say they were going to have their own artists go back over previous models? All the newer models since WG’s own artists started making them look really good. Not sure why WG didn’t make them internal to begin with (isn’t that the job of the artists).

It makes me sad that most of these are low tier. I probably won’t play any of them except the AMX 30s. Also it makes me sad that I’m the worst 13-90 driver NA… cause it looks like I’ll be rebuying that tank and trying to not suck ass in it once more.

They said it was a reward vehicle, not a premium

They look better because they were displayed in model viewing software(i.e. Marmoset Toolbag) These come with better lighting and texture set-ups because they are made for….well… displaying models. The are not from BigWorld, don’t expect them to look like that in-game

Tey are not removing e25 from the game. WG removed it from the shop. Krupp WT will be new premium in e25′s place.

My God, these tanks are absolutely mental. Can’t wait for these bad boys to be released along with the other HD tanks coming in 9.7, so stoked! The 30B’s model is so good I’m actually going to resume my grind up the French light/medium line… And that IS-2, God damn do I want one, it looks so beast… Actually scrap that, I want all of them.

MORE TONKS B O Y S!
