- SerB states that LT branches without high level tanks are not interesting
- matchmaker is “alive, healthy and working”
- SerB states that the old MM that did put MS-1 in same teams with Maus was “really funny” (SS: in open beta, there were basically such battles)
- according to SerB, gold shells for credits did not reduce the use of HE shells much, HE is still in demand
- at this moment, only 1/3 to 1/4 of the WoT concept is implemented from what SerB would like to have it in the game, as a lot of things got delayed. Developers will continue to add the rest.
Update: according to this post, WG is still not decided whether they will fix it, or simply change the portal news and leave the 50k XP demand.
Hello everyone,
just a word of warning: the October mission “Hero of the Day”, in which you are supposed to do 50k damage for a 250k credits reward is not working properly – instead of damage, it really counts XP, as you can see clearly here:
WG employees assured us repeatedly that the valid part is the DAMAGE and it’s simply an error in description. It is not.
That means two things:
- first, I am pretty sure the mission will be fixed only with next reset, so don’t bother accumulating damage today
- damage done today before the mission is fixed will almost certainly not transferred
Simply put, don’t bother fulfilling it (50k XP per day is pretty hard), wait until WG fixes it.
we now have an interesting turn of events. Three days ago, I posted an article about how WG EU busted a competition cheater. What happened: player PomFrit basically took a BT-2 to tier 10 via trollplatoons. He then shot a tier 10 tank several times, resulting in massive XP gain. As a result, WG EU (possibly CZ staff) banned him from the competition (plus a 7 day ingame ban) for cheating, because everyone was convinced it was rigged.
just quick heads up for those who haven’t noticed yet. There’s a new October daily mission announced on the portal: Hero of the Day – deal 50k damage per day, earn 250k credits. Or, is it?
The ingame description looks like this:
So, another portal screwup? No. In this case, it’s a client issue. Tuccy specifically confirmed that it’s the 50k damage that’s valid and not 50k XP requirement (that would have been harsh). It’ll be fixed within the client at some point.
- FV300 is planned to be introduced as British light tank, but SerB states that other than that (it’s a tier 6 probably), the British have no hightier LT candidates, unless WG digs something up at Bovington
- SerB considers the 8.8 German rebalance “fair”
- the Lowe side armor is historical, it belongs to one of the models mentioned in Panzer Tracts (SS: Lowe is a mashup of two models in game, I think there’s an article on that in old FTR)
today, the October calendar came out. Thanks to traditionally “great” Czech portal translation/management, someone forgot to delete the Top of the Tree description, so we now know that the Top of the Tree, starting from 1.10.2013 will be Object 268
you know what time it is – time for another Hall of Shame edition. More and more pictures coming in (in fact, probably enough to make a HoS daily edition), I am trying to pick only the worst retards, nazis and ragers for your entertainment. Let’s have a look:
MotoDrum sure likes gassing people (“you little shit jew, go die, you should be gassed”)
