Well…. no comment :)
T-46-5, tier 4 light tank
Hello everyone,
once upon a time, when the trees were still vertical, the T-54 was overpowered and SerB still had hair, there was an old version of the tech tree, that had the T-46-5 (T-111) tank in it on tier 4:

- A-32 tank underpowered? “How terrible”
- nerfs of previous patches unreasonable? “Your opinion is very important to us”
- average and maximum damage player statistic might be changed to not include the premium account influence (like in WoWp)
- Q: “Is the maximum amount of implemented premium tanks per patch somehow limited?” A: “Yes, 100 thousand.” (SS: in other words, no)
Which tanks AFK the most?

Hello everyone,
the internet offers all kinds of statistics on WoT. Some of them useful, some of them less so – and some of them totally useless, but interesting nonetheless. This is the third kind – which vehicles actually AFK the most?
World of Tanks in Japan

Special thanks to Daigensui for posting this on US forums
From 5.9.2013, Japan will have its own World of Tanks server. Additionally, there will be some form of cooperation between Wargaming and the authors of the popular Girls und Panzer anime. The content of this collaboration is not yet clear however.
8.7 – Test 3 (hotfix)
Hello everyone,
even though the 8.7 is already out on EU and RU servers, there have been apparently some issues with it (possibly linked to sharp FPS drops for some players). This is why the developers decided to open the third version of the 8.7 test, with following changes:
8.7 Test 3
- some special effects are reworked and optimized
- fixed some objects, that didn’t get destroyed properly in collisions
- some environment models have been fixed and finished
- the notification bug, when your own tank was detracked by a HE shell, has been fixed
- removed the possibility to retrain crews to the T-50-2 tank, that has been removed from the game
- finished the work on the voiceover
The update will be a sort of minipatch/hotfix (17Mb)
There will also be a test of the unified premium account.

- SerB states that “everything, that could be done to make the training room battles easier for the players without risks to the game was already done. Everything else is financially risky and won’t be implemented” (SS: in other words – no free/cheaper shells/repairs in training rooms or anything else, topic closed)
- SerB on Japanese tanks heavy branch (about where it will start from): “It’s a mess. Tier 3 heavy exists. Tier 6 and higher do exist also. But there’s a gaping hole on tier 4 and 5. So the heavy branch is not considered as done and won’t be released for now.”
24.7.2013, part 2
SerB started answering, so here it is:
- WG-made Master of Orion? (SS: WG recently bought the franchise from Atari) “No comment, but I don’t think we’d buy anything only to have it lying in the basement”
- no extraordinary measures to prevent teamkills of the reward tanks (M60 and others) will be taken
Pzw 39 (LTH) – possible lowtier Swiss tank
Hello everyone,
today, we’ll have a look at one of the more interesting modifications of the TNH chassis, the Panzerwagen 39 (also known as LTH).

This Q&A is a bit unusual. As you probably know, SerB’s in Paris (hence the Hitler video) and Storm’s on vacation, so I’m going to translate some of the stuff, posted by a “developer” (in reality, a chief of community) Evilly in this thread – it’s about clanwars. I am not sure how much of it applies for EU/US servers, but I’ll try to translate to the best of my knowledge.
Please note that as I have never played clanwars and I have very little understanding of its mechanics, the translation might be of worse quality than usual. Feel free to correct me.
- new season starts in October
- apparently there are no plans to reward CW players with vehicles with crew that has perks/skills
- there will be other ways for clans to compete with each other apart from clanwars
- for second campaign, you will also need tier 1 + T2-T10 vehicles, so don’t sell them (“The same vehicles you currently need for various company tiers”)
- in campaign, if you get accidentally removed from a clan after playing some battles and then you are accepted back, when it comes to reward battle requirement, those battles (before you were kicked) do count, the countner doesn’t reset
- as the second campaign reward there will be a choice between either the M60, or the other reward tanks (Failowe, Object 907)
Update: yes, the players will be able to choose a reward
