Hello everyone,
apparently, 9.3 will bring the HD version of the IS-7 (IF they manage to put the HD textures in).

Hello everyone,
apparently, 9.3 will bring the HD version of the IS-7 (IF they manage to put the HD textures in).
Now if only I wasn’t e-poor and could buy it…
Save up that money and buy a T8 prem. Never be short on Silver again!
If you really want to spend much money for that game (as I do), then buy one of the T8 prem heavies. These bad boys generate 50% more credits than the regular T8. In really good battles (2500dmg+) you can get about 80000-100000 credits in one game. Only depends on how good you are.
I personally have the T34, which is a solid tank without good armor (except turret), and a superior long-range gun because I prefer TD’s in normal game.
Done 130k+ credits in one battle with my Type 59 today, Scout and Ace Tanker on that one too. My T34 and Löwe are great credit makers as well.
Want HD? Get nerfed. ~a random unicum(not me)
It could get buffed. Some HD models have gotten some buffs when they got HD.
The Centurion 7/1 was buffed…
yea the 120mm armor not working on the front, big buff
Its better then before….

you can give me as much image as you want, but in game its a bullshit
Same as T-54 hull…
Eh? I thought it was opposite – http://ftr.wot-news.com/2014/04/03/test-9-0-t-3485-and-centurion-7-armor-changes/
The most important part, turret, got nerfed.
Nope. Centurion is buffed. Both turret and hull.
SS made a mistake similar to the ones Jingles makes…
Not thinking something throught/fact checking it.
Blue line is HD Cent:

I see what you mean but by the looks the mantlet did get smaller, plus the part on the sides of mantlet also got weaker. So considering you mostly use the turret it is kind of a nerf.
Are you really saying the new one is crappier? Oh gosh, buffs all over but one insignificant nerf “makes it worse.”
I am not saying it is overall crappier. But seriously, while upper plate buff is nice, mostly you would use this tank in hulldown, meaning the turret is what matters the most.
So, the upper part (slope on turrets top) got nicer angle, but if you could hulldown with rear downwards you should get enough angle for that upper part. But the part where I always shoot to penetrate the Cent. turret is on the sides of the mantlet, those sides becoming bigger and weaker armored and the part that only really absorbed shells (mantlet) becoming smaller seems like a nerf to the turret armor on the overall. (and yes I did check and compare models).
And no need for your crying (srsly, read you comment and tell me you are not overreacting), I only said that in my opinion the turret seems to be nerfed, which is not really such a good thing for a tank that for the most part should be only showing the turret.
The angle on the top of the turret got a lot steeper and the armor hole got smaller. The area buffed on the turret is much bigger than the area that got nerfed.
Also showing a bit of your hull doesn’t matter much now since it’s a lot stronger and can bounce shots itself. The fact that the hull is also a lot stronger means that this tank can actually get itself into other positions other than hulldown. Even more flexibility for the Centurion!
It’s definitely an overall buff. It’s bizarre to say otherwise.
In game my and the enemies centurions feel tougher then they were pre-9.0.
T-54 is squishier though. Its turret is now regular 225 pen area.
Anyone know the number of HD models that are going to be implemented in patch 9.3? Not including the new tanks.
i dont think the devs are certain off that themselve, hece the ”(IF they manage to put the HD textures in).”
Converting models in to HD is an ongoing process. Those that are finished just go to supertest or public test, those that aren’t, wait for another public test.
hope they don’t fuck up the armour as like T-54…
inb4 100mm front
20mm side
and 0mm rear
lel I support this idea
on the turret, lolololol :D
Russian Bias… Oh wait…
What did they fk up at T-54 armor?
Oooh, nice! Cant wait! But it says 9.3…
*goes to Google Translate*
9.3, from WarGamish to English, means 9.5 :(
I am disappointed that the holes on the muzzle braker, are not 3D modeled :(
So much for historical accuracy…
I was about to ask the same thing. :/
Yeah, was about to point that out. I want them holes!
I hope that this is not a finnished model, M103 has holes in muzzle brake, I want those holes in here too for fuck sake.
Well, the M103′s muzzle brake only has what, 2 holes that aren’t that small? There is significantly more holes and at a smaller size for the IS-7′s muzzle brake.
well since they modeled those holes i guess they could just crop the interior and thats it… or is not that simple?
Funny thing is, by not making holes they use more vertices, hence the computer uses more processing power to render: http://i.imgur.com/WdSUHMc.png
still no holes in the muzzlebreak. where is the HD?? thats bullshit!
No its not, that would be a lot of extra Poly’s just to add holes in a muzzle break, this is where textures come in.
black dots are ugly.
look at warthunder even the 50mm at plains have real holes in the MB …. should’t be the problem
For once I agree.
HD World of Tanks models are superior to War Thunder models. So they should have holes too.
The thing it is in a way, warthunder may do it but old comps can’t really play it, WG are trying to keep the game playable still for older comps while improving the games looks,
Textures can still look realistic when done right, ie; bump mapping
Also where’s the proof the holes in the 50mm in WT are actually modelled, they can easily be animated textures, ud be surprised how many games use just textures to make things look 3D, it saves on space.
Maybe you should see the real muzzle break before you say anything. It’s “layered” like a suppressor on a gun, you can’t see through into the barrel. If you modelled the holes it’d probably look worse than a decently done texture showing the same.

It doesn’t take that long to texture. Especially if you have a library of specific textures for a specific nation.
My body is ready!
No1 noticed the machine gun? It’s down in stead of up! :D
Some HD models got nerfed while some (i think) got buffed. Best armor nerf example is M103.
- nerfed turret ring
- nerfed upper plate
- nerfed lower plate
- turret roof nerfed and also got a very shtty angle as a bonus. The area right above the gun mantle.
Only it’s turret cheeks got buffed. As for IS-7 HD model i dont think it will be nerfed since it had even better armor IRL anyway.
It took YEARS for them to finally fold that retarded looking machine-gun on the top of the turret….
