Oh look, amx 13 90 with 105mm gun, amx 13 75 with 90mm gun. Why couldn't they just add the amx 105 tank and forget about the upcoming tier 5 tank? Fucking hate these fucking devs.

God you don't half like moaning about literally fucking everything.
You moan that stuff is op, then moan when they take steps to balance it...

Also it would be shit if they just added an amx-13 with 105, gun it would be boring playing that line when you basically have 3 tanks in a row that are virtually identically this new tank also gives the French a proper "scout".

Not really understanding the JagPanther II implementation, it costs the same as the Ferdi and seems to be advantageous in just about every way except armor

I also noticed there's no British premium yet as the Asian changelogs mentioned.  The UK does appear in the country sorting list in the depot and store however, but there's obviously nothing there yet.  Sounds a lot like British tanks are next.

The British Premium (Matilda Black Prince) is only available to "super testers" on the test server apparently.
Yeah Ferdinand will now just be a "side branch" with it's heavier armour.
It will probably have a different "economic model" though in terms of it's profitability vs. repair and shell costs.

Are they at least gonna rename the tanks, because it sounds fricken stupid AMX 13 75, AMX 13 90, while having a higher caliber gun that is not a derp cannon.

Also, proper scout? Would it be like the teir 5 lights of the Russians, Germans, and Americans? If so that wouldn't make sense considering the fact that they have a very high repair cost, plus are actually tier 6 with the label tier 5. If they balance the ELC to match those lights, they would be forced to have similar repair costs which would make grinding to the light tree difficult to beginners. While at the same time, if the ELC had low repairs costs, why the fuck would they have the chaffee, vk2801, and t50-2 have way too high repair costs in comparison?

Also I am not liking the sounds of this tank from what I'm getting at with the forums, sure it is a public test and still hasn't gotten the kinks correct, plus many of those people are whiners like me but have different opinions sometimes. Knowing how the devs are, however, they will not change much from it. It's practically like the lee now in gameplay, a TD.

Also, incase you didn't realize, AMX12t is a piece of utter shit, even with buff in hp it still will likely be shit for tier 6, thing can't fucking raise or lower its gun. I mean I was glad to be rid of the AMX40 and had some fun with it, but once I got the AMX 75 I was glad to be rid of the damn thing. I still need it for the update as well as to unlock the tier 5 arty. If they basically make it like the AMX 75 was, same gun elevation and depression in addition to same HP, I will not complain of it being tier 6. Not happy with its replacement though.

Edit: Sorry for poor wording. I might have to fix it later.

Have lorraine now, but kinda fucked up abit on my first round. At least it was a victory despite a shit double of 984. Plus I died because I forgot to equip the repair kit on this thing before battle, I always keep forgetting that when I get a new tank.

I already have dca45 and 750 hp engine I borrowed from my amx m4, I think the tank is good enough for me to just grind with that stuff alone until I unlock batchat.

Thought as much, must have reckoned it was only worth doing in EU:
http://worldoftanks.eu/news/3066-bastil … lebration/

It's basically money off a few French tanks, 150% credit income on some French and tanks, and double crew experience.

I wish they would discount the ARL over here again while the power is on so I don't have to pay full-price for a tank that's probably going to suck.  Either that or the 3001P at least, they're both tanks I would like to get so I can get past them to get to something else but they themselves aren't particularly a priority and therefore not something I wanna pay the full price of 900,000+ for.

I liked my ARL 44 better than I liked my BDR, if you are worried about the next tank being a pain in the ass, worry about the AMX M4.

By the way, go straight for the best gun when grinding with ARL 44, for
1) Stock turret is ridiculously big, upgraded is much much smaller.
2)Upgraded turret turns faster
3)Upgraded turret fits the bigger guns including the beastly DCA 45
4)Upgraded turret weighs less, so no worry about fitting the F3 in.

Only problem with the ARL 44 was the long aim time and kinda shitty accuracy with the better 90mm cannons as well as absolute horrid stock turret, otherwise it was awesome.

The WoT servers all get different specials for each region.  I'm good on the Operation Bacon special though because of the 50% discount on consumables.  Time to stock up on a year's worth of shit again.  I think this is the 3rd time they did a discount on consumables.

Even if you go directly in the folder and click on it? without using the shortcut?   Unless if you are already doing that and it doesn't work I don't know.


When you had the 7.0 test, did you copy/paste the whole game?  Cause if you didn't you are probably missing some files.

Somewhat old I know but still.  Unfortunately thanks to a certain green plant I smoked in the days afterwards I can't remember a single thing about that game or I'd tell you how many kills I got and with what gun.  I don't think I had the 105 by then though, that was probably just a few games before I got it I think

The entire launcher disappeared, even in the folder. So I had to reinstall the game.

The new graphics in 8.0 looks really good:



Plus the rendering updates are supposed to make the game run smoother too and this is also the same update where the new physics get added

I don't know why they used that British guy to read the stuff off though, he's clearly more suited to History channel type shit and the English is simple and not particularly well formed in this video, so it feels like I'm being read a children's story audiobook or something

Nope there was a X3 event on this weekend. Luckily hit this good round with my E-75.

A few tanks were also on 200% income, made a load of money off my PZIV.
