- Soviet gun rebalance was scrapped (SS: there was a plan to increase Soviet penetration to Chinese levels)
- Chrysler TV-8 in the game? "We don't
- there will be something like dynamic objects on the maps with the implementation of client physics
- in connection with common premium account for WoWp and WoT, SerB states that it will be impossible to run those two games at the same time ("you don't have 4 hands anyway, or?")
- it's not planned to inform the person, who sent the ingame complaint about its result
- StuG III with derp HEAT nerfed too much? "Don't play StuG III with derp HEAT"
- SU-26 nerfed too much? "Don't play SU-26"
- gold ammo nerfed too much? "Don't use gold ammo"
(SS: judging from the trollanswers, I guess we can be fairly easy they don't consider these things overnerfed)
- 25 percent RNG on pen and damage won't be reduced
- Durchbruchswagen didn't appear in the new Leopard branch because devs decided not to make it
- according to Storm, publishing (implementing into the game) 3D model armor schematics was not done yet because it's complicated to implement
- according to Storm, all the maps and modes have same chance of "dropping" (SS: player was complaining that Siegfried Line encounter drops way too often)
- the fact that when the dynamic camera is on, tank barrel "swinging" gets turned on too automatically is intentional
- current Scripts mod series (SS: whatever that is) can't run on 0.8.6, according to Storm that's normal for every patch that messes with game mechanics
- the removal of French premium arty from the 0.8.6 test is intentional, as it is not yet decided whether it will be removed from sales
- according to Storm, dynamic camera on Object 268 is working fine
- 0.9.0 will be even bigger than 0.8.6
- there will be a new article on 0.8.6 camo mechanics by Storm
- besides the XL spall liner, there are no further plans to improve Maus/E-100 survivability against arty
- the 10vs10 arty battles on supertest won't apparently happen on public server, as under some circumstances the cap is removed (like when the queue is full of arty)
- it's possible some (specific) HEAT shells have different ricochet value than the default 80 degrees
>Soviet gun rebalance was scrapped (SS: there was a plan to increase Soviet penetration to Chinese levels)
ReplyDelete>colour me surprised
No word about the reason behind this choice? Anyway thanks as always for your translations.
RedBear87 (EU)
Which guns' penetration were they planning to increase? What about the plan to standardise the chinese and soviet 100mm guns (chinese ones have 250 dmg, soviets 230 dmg), that still happening or also scrapped?
DeleteThat is probably what was scrapped. The only changes to Soviet guns that I have heard in the last few months have been those would equalize the Soviet and Chinese 100mm guns.
DeleteSo, yeah. No more 100mm change.
RIP
Typical WG. Probably a five minute job for a coder to change the damage from 230 to 250.
DeleteBut it's too complicated to implement!
DeleteI had today on test server 14 vs 15 arty battle (tier IV full of new German arties).
ReplyDeleteWhy would anyne complain about Siegfried line popping up too often? Its one of the best maps....:D
ReplyDeleteRussians...
DeleteStuG III with derp HEAT nerfed too much? "Don't play StuG III with derp HEAT"
ReplyDelete- SU-26 nerfed too much? "Don't play SU-26"
- gold ammo nerfed too much? "Don't use gold ammo"
solution to wargamings asshat trolling dont buy gold would be my solution
Those 3 answers are actually quite true.
DeleteI mean every body complains about gold ammo p2win, now they nerfed it. Don't spam gold ammo is actually the point.
He's just one of the cry babys: crying for the sake of crying ;)
DeletePretty sure I am that kind of p2w asshole, but what I am feeling is we deserve it. Especially 105 HEAT, this thing really ruins the game.
DeleteAnyway, I still have E-100 and FV215b(183), both are greeeeeaaaaaaaattttttt gold shooter, so I am ok:)

"- Durchbruchswagen didn't appear in the new Leopard branch because devs decided not to make it"
ReplyDeleteSS, does this mean that the Durchbruchwagen (Tier 5 Heavy) won't be introduced in this line or not at all (= scrapped)?
That's what I wanted to ask too.
DeleteI would be shocked if this tank never makes it into the game in some form. It will probably make it, but just not in the Leopard line.
DeleteIt will, just not correct translation.
Delete"because devs decided not to make it _in 0.8.5_"
Money on it being a tier 4 heavy tank with the VK 65.01(H) as a tier 5 heavy at some point in the future.
DeleteThe translation is correct (if there is some other answer now, it was backedited), but it is implied it will come eventually.
Deletedont worry wg, i ll never pay you real money
ReplyDeletethey generally not worried about some anonymous low-lifers who can only bitch and whine
DeleteSerB stinkt!
ReplyDeleteThen go develop your own game.
DeleteGerman cry baby at its best :P
DeletePLS stop letting our country look stupid and grow up. THX.
"Then go develop your own game."
DeleteBetter balance=guaranteed
better spotting system=guaranteed
Bigger and Better Specials
ReplyDeleteThe way our in-game specials function will be receiving an overhaul this summer, with additional battle missions and more varied rewards. Expect to not only train your crew members and buy new vehicles more quickly, but to also earn more bonus credits and experience.
Of course, the biggest party is still to come. To celebrate Wargaming’s 15th Anniversary, we’ll be having a huge in-game special, complete with an exclusive gift for all of you who join us in celebrating this major date.
Frank, any info on this? posted on the WoT newsfeed
I can't be online 24/7 -.-
DeleteDon't like how WG talks to and treats their customers and never listens? Don't buy gold.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, arty is still too accurate, and still one shotting things at it's leisure. Even after all these "nerfs" it's still grossly OP and shows just how broken it is. Yet WG will never own up to it, because they're too arrogant.
Maybe but just maybe the problem is not the ary but the player in the tank?
DeleteTell that to the swathes of 60%+ players complaining about arty.
DeleteThe problem is not between the keyboard and the chair.
"Tell that to the swathes of 60%+ players complaining about arty."
DeleteArty as uniscum neutralizer working as intended.
"Tell that to the swathes of 60%+ players complaining about arty." never saw any...
DeleteMhh there are 60%+ players complaining about Heavys/ tds/ lights/ meds... so should we remove all tanks?
DeleteEveryone complains about arty, even other arty players.
DeleteWorking as intended.
Delete@: "Tell that to the swathes of 60%+ players complaining about arty." never saw any...
Deletealmost all +60% player i know either thinks are needs rebalance (some) or wants it to be completly removed/wiped/killed (or reworded if the previous is not possible)
arty players are often medicore players, who blame others for ``l2p``, fact is, most arty haters are 2x better players as the avg arty bob
signed: 63% arty hater from EU
look like 8.7 will bring 14 new tanks to us
ReplyDeleteUpdate 8.6 & Update 8.7
Things will definitely be heating up in World of Tanks for we have not just one, but two updates to keep you fired up for the summer. These two updates will welcome 24 spanking new vehicles into the expansive collection of tanks and present you with fresh surroundings to soak your sights into in 3 new map offerings. Old maps will be reworked to enhance visuals and encounter mode will be introduced to 3 maps along with lots of other bug-fixes to further improve on the quality of the game. Players can expect to see a bigger and better variety of server-side events as we move forward with each update.

10 British arties, 2 premiums confirmed, Sexton I and... well, something.
Delete10 arties? Not only 9?
Delete- according to Storm, all the maps and modes have same chance of "dropping"
ReplyDeletewow, serb is really bad at math. either the different modes have same chance or the maps... since not all maps have all modes, it's hardly possible that all modes on all maps have the same chance of "dropping"...
- according to Storm, dynamic camera on Object 268 is working fine
i don't know about Object 268, but it sure isn't working fine: this stupid shaking can't possibly be intended. was horrible to play on T57 Heavy Tank.
Also: "you nerfed Tank X too much" - "then dont play it!" This really shows how "good" wargaming is at balancing. which is very very bad.
He isn't bad at math considering that he used to be a nuclear physicist. He probably meant that, disregarding the specific modes, all maps have the same dropping chance; that was what the RU guy was complaining about, anyways.
DeleteYou can always disable the dynamic camera, I think.
And, in my opinion, no matter how they try to balance the simplest thing, people always complains... I don't think that was that bad of an answer, to be honest.
"This really shows how "good" wargaming is at balancing. which is very very bad."
DeleteWell it only took them 3 years to try to balance arty. And of course it's another fail.
the problem is they dont listen to community feedback, they do whatever they please.
DeleteSomeone should bring them a cup of democracy.
Delete- the fact that when the dynamic camera is on, tank barrel "swinging" gets turned on too automatically is intentional
ReplyDeleteModable, will be included in my 0.8.6 update for J1mB0's Crosshair Mod
It say :
ReplyDelete- 25 percent RNG on pen and damage won't be reduced
But on official patch notes they say :
Changed the mechanisms for calculating damage and penetration. The extreme numbers (high and low) will be randomly generated 5% less
so it seem they are implementing gaussian like randomness on theses rolls ?
" in connection with common premium account for WoWp and WoT, SerB states that it will be impossible to run those two games at the same time ("you don't have 4 hands anyway, or?")"
ReplyDeleteSo, I can't alt+tab between them if I want?
Do they require a NASA computer to run at the same time?
Nah, WoT=1 core, WoWP=1 core, etc ,I have plethora of cores (trollface)
DeleteYou play WoWP while your son plays WoT, on your account, at his own computer in the next room? I think WG wants you to pay for separate premium accounts - one per player.
DeleteI knew it would come down to their greed.
