The point of the article linked above is that a player was complaining that the Sniper award he should have recieved. He wrote a support ticket and here’s what he got for answer:

“Currently there is a bug, in which ramming deprives the player of chance to recieve the award. The bug will be fixed in following patches.”

So, there you have it, confirmed. Allegedly, this bug only occurs when ramming damage is dealt to friendlies, but this is not confirmed.

You’ll like this, SerB’s on the roll again.

- SerB on Gaijin War Thunder tanks, when asked what he thinks about them:

“We do watch them. Company Gaijin, by the way, puts a lot of effort into making its project NOT resembling WoT (true, not always – for example module unlocking they made basically the same as we have it in the end, only instead of normal stock modules they give out “worn out” modules). And so their experience is very valuable for us, mostly in the “how not to do it” part. But if they – let’s say – manage to make a playable tank game with better historicity (Tiger with heavier turret(c)), we will gladly learn from their experience”

- SU-152 Taran is not planned
- Q (on SerB): “How did the EU community react on the Stalin inscriptions returning?” A: “Majority doesn’t care, the only ones with butthurting are the Polish (it’s their national sport) and – oddly enough – Romanians”

World of Tanks in Romanian

Posted on by

Hello everyone!

This post concerns mostly Romanian players. As you all probably know, despite Romanians being one of the larger playerbases on EU server, there is no Romanian forum section on official EU forums. Furthermore, Wargaming – not having learned from the worldoftanks.cz domain issue (a random guy registered the domain before WG) – did not register the worldoftanks.ro either.

Treborn, a well-known personality on EU forums, managed to put together an unofficial World of Tanks Romanian webpage at worldoftanks.ro – its contents include FTR translations into Romanian and Romanian forums. Those, who want to discuss World of Tanks in Romanian are invited there.

I hope you guys find this useful.

- Q: “This game needs more player rewards, for example 200 gold for each player every day” A:”You came to the wrong game. I think that you need a game, where they will pay you 100 thousand for simply you showing the developers the honor by turning your attention to it. And of course not in gold, but in real money.”
- singleplayer missions are not planned, the load on the server would be too high (SS: for example for the tutorial, server has to create one map session for every single player, that’s very uneconomical)

T-34-3 and 112 now available on 8.8 test server

Posted on by

Hello everyone,

as many of you (judging from the queues) probably noticed, both the 112 and the T-34-3 are available on the test server now. The developers used a strange way to add them: since they weren’t added to the test shop, they added them as special mission reward:

As you can see, all you have to do to get them is to play one battle. Simple enough. And how do they perform?
