    • Yes, you can with your battle pool.
      But I hate T10 full of players with 264 battles and AMX-40 as a highest tier.
      I want to test, TEST, what i want to grind, beginners dont have to do it, because they will not play that tiers next few months. Man cannot test anything when NOBODY knows what to do on that tiers, than it is not a test, thats a comedy.

      • Sometimes it’s true, the sheer amount of FV 215b 183s on the test is just hilarious, while in “real” game there are mostly none of them even in T10 areas :D

      • Lol. In the first rounds of test server that i participated and i was pretty good too (8.9-8.10) tought the same. but things dont work as you said. on TS there are russians. MANY, many russians. and they pretty know what they are suposed to do. And since its test server, nobody really cares about his stats, money, etc and they dont camp like there is no tomorrow, as they do on EU. There, the battles are more dynamic and fun to play… Or at least this is my opinion

        • I find it very annoying that you cant test out new low tiers because everyone is playing tier 10´s, I wonder how usefull these tests are for WG really, how can they know if a tank is OP in low tiers when nobody is able to play them in randoms on test server?

          • I hardly ever drive Tier 10′s on the test because people are just as stupid there as they are on the main server. I usually stick to Tier 8 and below. Add me on the test: “Carnaxus_US” (or _NA, if WG.net decides to get their heads out of their tailpipes), and we’ll do some non-Tier 10 platooning. Oddly enough, it’s pretty easy to get a Tier 8 battle on the test.

      • Yea, I don’t know if I should buy T-62A or Obj. 140 and I would like to try E-50M, E-100 and 113 because I have 9T tanks from these trees :D

        And I need to try two premium tanks – E-25 and SU-122-44.

          • I am not sure if I will buy it at all. Everyone says its useless and crappy tank. 6,1kk is a lot of credits and I have some other X tiers researched (such as Obj. 268).

            • i am good in right hand. trust me.
              you just need to play me right, it feels odd after previous tanks, thats why people dislike me

        • I have E-25 and SU-144-44.
          Some say e-25 is a kids tank, but when played properly it’s a game winner – and fun!

          I’m starting to think that the su-122-44 is the best premium tank in the game. I’ve played the lowe, fcm,T-34, type 59(which is now rubbish) and this td is my favorite. I know the t8 heavies get more credits but this td even gives the t9′s problems and the camo is still there :)
          I got mine when there was a 30% off sale, so my advice is wait till that happens again and get it – especially as you can train your crew for the higher tier russian td’s.

          • Yea, that why I wanna buy it :D I have already researched Obj. 268 and I need to rebuy SU-122-54 (rage-sold after a loosing streak). E-25 will also come handy as I already have Ferdinand and I will buy Sturer Emil :)

        • Instead of the E-50M, try the standard E-50 with the 88mm L/100. Super sniper tank.

          Also yes, T-59 is utter garbage now. Used to be that I could rely on its front armor vs. anything under 120mm/Tier 9, now it gets penned by Comets with their 75mm guns…and its acceleration and turn rates are laughable at best. I’ve had mine since it first came out.

  1. Time to test a couple of gold tanks any more info about the tier 7 american TD? (Release date of some sort)

    • See my other post jepper. Definitely try it on test. I also don’t use gold shells in normal randoms and it’s fine. Long range accuracy is a bit poor to start but as the crew upskills it gets a lot better. I have BIA, mentor and sixth sense on my commander now…awesome.. and camo plus repairs on the other crew.

  2. some summary what is supposed to be tested ? or do we wait for patchnotes ?

  3. When will add to WOT the activ suspension ? after the havoc will be add ? becouse now is horrible to aim when are some terrain.

    And it wiill be great if they add one shell to AMX 50b :)

    • Did I miss something? El Halluf is pretty balanced, it’s actually a bit like Campinovka even, why does it need to be removed?

  4. I hope for more PTA buffs than the RoF one. Then again it’s Leopard and German so I’m not holding my breath. Still better gun dispersion or depression would be appreciated.

    Also speaking about the gun depression the series II prototype for PTA (which is the model WG is using in the game) has -9 degrees depression with the Royal Ordnance L7A1 IRL.

  6. I gave up on test servers couple of patches back. I decided to take Centurion 7/1 for a spin to decide if i want to advance past the Comet. In the very first match i had very bad lag and still managed to destroy full health T-54 head on. That should tell you a lot about the skill of players you meet on test server. Plus, most players are shooting premium ammo only. And they play their tier 10s same way they play Loltraktors. You can’t really test anything in conditions like this.

    Well, not strictly. You still can see if any given tank is comfortable for you. E.g. speed, mobility, gun characteristics and so on. But not much beyond that.

  7. I agree rusty.
    Look for historical battles on test, I might try a few lower tiers on there if anyone else joins!?

    • The test start usually in afternoon or sometimes in evening. Dont worry, it will start today ;).
