KRZYBooP: Great job! 

KRZYBooP: If you would like to enter our contest, and win free stuff.    Please submit the finished product to From_The_Forge@wargaming.net    

DomoSapien:   If you click the settings icon on the lefthand side of the launcher (gear/cog icon) then click the 'updates' dropdown and uncheck "automatically update installed games."

This will make it so that you need to manually start updating each title. Downside is that your games won't always be up-to-date and ready to play, but it'll prevent you from running into the issue where you need to pause all your downloads to launch the game.

DomoSapien: Hey Tankers,   Thank you to everyone who has used the Wargaming Game Center Launcher and provided us with a wealth of valuable feedback.   Today, WGC is actually the primary platform for delivering updates for World of Tanks, World of Warships, and other fine Wargaming Titles;    We've made quite a few improvements since WGC first went into Beta, so if you haven't checked it out in a while, now might be the time to give WGC another try.   To read about the new features, check out this article!
Love it, hate it, don't care... we want to hear your opinions!   Please leave your suggestions and feedback below.        

Jambijon: Though some of the aspects may have changed or were updated, we ran a Frontline guide contest that has a lot of good content.   http://forum.worldoftanks.com/index.php?/topic/578666-map-mondays-frontline-road-to-glory/

MA77: Estamos atualizando o Wargaming Game Center e há muitas novidades e melhorias.
Leia o artigo e opine sobre as mudanças.

MA77: De onde surgiu esse boato? 

TeriyakiTanker: Yeah all what, three that are on the server?  They have been winnable fir almost half a year now and I haven’t seen a single one in battle.  Out of all the stuff that needs to be fixed or tweaked in this game this is what you are worried about? 

Gnomon:   ​   Also, don't believe me about the "up to a week thing" above, I just compensated all of the affected accounts.   You guys are set. Go have fun kids, just be home by 9 or no dinner. 

Gnomon: Howdy again, y'all!    The issue should be fixed. Try logging in letting me know if everything goes okay.    I also requested a list of those affected by this issue, and we will be providing them with compensation of premium time for the time when they were out of the game. If you encountered this issue, please keep an eye out on your account for the Premium to drop (should be before the end of the week).   I do apologize for the inconvenience and hope that y'all haven't missed too much time out on the battlefield.    Thanks! 

TeriyakiTanker: IS-3A is a stupid tank, massively OP when top tier and basically trash when bottom tier (along with basically every other Tier VIII heavy in the game).  The auto-reloader needs to be changed to be just like the Italian ones.  Right now you get 2 free shots into any tank you meet.  Just because the gun is relatively trashy doesn't make it a smart mechanic, especially considering they already did it right with the Italian ones.

Gnomon: Hey everyone,    If you're having the issue where the game says it is logged into a different server, please submit a ticket to Player Support. We will need information from everyone experiencing the issue, so please make your ticket as detailed as possible (WGCheck files, screenshots of the error, etc.).   Thanks! I appreciate the help and apologize for the inconvenience. We are looking into this now!    PS: I miss you all 

Felipe6666Original:   Voy a banearlo del foro para impedir que pueda participar de todo directamente  

Felipe6666Original:   Cierto, pero yo particularmente prefiero este método de votación porque al fin y al cabo las creaciones no son para Wargaming, sino para que los jugadores se entretengan haciéndolas y el resto disfrute con ellas. Podríamos por ejemplo tener una especie de jurado interno, pero no suena bonito que los jugadores, los últimos destinatarios de estas cosas, no puedan elegir a sus ganadores.   ¡Saludos!

KRZYBooP: This six month timeline to announce fixing the MM is happening. They announced an article in Nov2018 about greater changes to the MM using Asia server as a test bed. The article can be found HERE. It announces bots and updates to the templates.    WG is aware of the feedback for the Match Maker and has been making changes to address concerns since 9.18 came out. While 3/5/7 is not 100% liked it was implemented to address a problem that the MM had before it was implemented. Anyone ever queue up in a tier 7 battle as the only tier 5? I know I have and it's not a fun game experience. Yes 3/5/7 you are not going to be top tier but at least you are in the majority of players you are up against.    SBMM is available at times throughout the year in Ranked battle seasons. I speculate the reason for SBMM not being in Random battles or having an option to queue up for SBMM is due to tech limitations the MM already has.    Yes WG is a business and needs money so they do try to monetize when they can, however they also understand that the Free to play business model rely's heavily on the community which is why I have a job. Pref MM changes were reversed due to a major consensus with our whole community and WG employees. Mostly everyone that I work with tries their best to fight for players best interest when it comes to features and compensation.    If you want to have the best time in Random battles I recommend playing with a friend. I personally don't worry about being bottom tier when I am with a friend cause I know someone on my team has my back and will punish someone that peeks out to take a shot at me. Or will yell " I WILL AVENGE YOU! " after I die like a true bro in an action movie.    Private Public is a user that helps coordinate the Ask the Dev's events and it's in as many places as possible. I know there is a forum, reddit, and news article post about it when it does happen. WG understands how much our players want clarity on what's going on, and what is planned. If there is an outlet we miss in the planning for this please let us know.         

DomoSapien:
There's a tech tree rebalance this year, hopefully the TVP VTU will get some love. I believe it's one of the tanks I recommended when we were gathering internal feedback about vehicles for re balancing.

DomoSapien:
Well, according to the 2019 Announcements from WG Fest, XP and Credit earn rates remain the same in next year's Frontline; repair and shell costs won't change either.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockies!  This weeks challenge is in the T-71 DA or CMCD.  Click Here above to head to the FB post to submit your high score. All you have to do is check to see if you beat the high-score that is posted on Saturday, and submit your battle results to the Facebook or Twitter thread. If you do enjoy some free in game loot including gold, premium time and boosters. Be sure to submit your high-score by Sunday at the latest to qualify.

KRZYBooP:   NOT ANYMORE!    

KRZYBooP:   You're Welcome!    Just kidding I have nothing to do with what goes on sale and when. xD

KRZYBooP: I would first like to ask if anyone here has attended our ask the Devs anything event that was hosted on reddit and announced in our forums? They address the common questions and listen to players.    WG does listen to it's player base which is why the Premium MM tanks aren't seeing tier X right now. They do care about what our player base says and gathers feedback regularly on everything implemented to the game.    Wheeled vehicles haven't even hit the Server yet and there are already getting nerfs, and in the latest version of the CT they removed the boost completely.    Please understand that the main goal for the MM is speed. Getting players into a random battle is meant to be fast and the battle random. Sometimes you roll a 6 and get a great team and sometimes you roll a 1. Now sometimes that 1 turns out to win the game because the other team doesn't focus on capturing the flag and that's on them. Remember that there is Skill based MM in game in different game types in the game already, but random battles are meant to be random.    There are always changes being made to MM, but since our entire game hinges on this system they are implemented slowly. 

DomoSapien: The TVP T 27 hits Supertest today! It's a tier VIII Premium Czech Medium Tank with an autoloader.  Its playstyle is very similar to the Skoda T50 and TVP 50/51 at the top of the tree. Of course, it's less powerful to balance for tier, but the crew composition is also the same as the top of the tree, making it an ideal crew trainer for the CZ MT line.  The tank is armed with an 88-mm gun which deals 240 points of alpha damage and is most effective at close and mid-range. Its aiming time is 1.9 seconds, and the dispersion is 0.38 m at a range of 100 meters.The autoloading magazine holds three rounds and takes 20 seconds to fully reload. The time between shots is 1.8 seconds.  As a mitigating factor, the penetration is a bit low for standard and Special ammunition. The vehicle will be comfortable in a support flex/flanking role, since it's a fairly large and poorly-armored target. 
The key to success will be effectively utilizing its mobility and gun depression to take advantageous flanking positions for crossfire.
Parameters are, as always, subject to change. Screenshots  

Jambijon: The IS-2 is available until the 2nd of February.   https://worldoftanks.com/en/news/premium-shop/is-2-and-pz-kpfw-s35-739-f-0119/.

TeriyakiTanker:   Yeah unfortunately I met a couple last night in clan wars

The_Chieftain: Out of interest, are you working your way through every one of my articles? How long is this taking you?

TeriyakiTanker:   I agree the coding would indeed be easy but that isn’t the hard part.  Let’s say you have two unicums in the same battle, the first one is in a tier X heavy and the other is in a tier 8 arty do you really think putting them on opposite teams will make the game more balanced.  As a coder you should be well aware that writing the code isn’t the hardest part of the job.

Jambijon: Yes!  The time has finally come! In the first quarter of 2019, we will be able to once again enjoy and experience a fitter, happier, more productive Frontline than our previous installment.  Before the official launch on the live server, Frontline will be heading to Common Test 3 to test the updated progression system.  Frontline is available during the 1.4 Common Test only for your consideration and for preliminary testing. Testing Frontline now does not imply the mode will launch immediately with Update 1.4. Frontline will be activated separately from it. Values ​​and various characteristics that are relevant for the Common Test have been changed and do not correspond to those ​​in the final version of the mode!  For the full list of updates and changes, check out our article linked below: Frontline Returns! For those who experienced the first iteration of Frontline, you may have seen some performance issues or bugs.  This is one of the reasons for the long absence and of course, the updates, balancing, and features that were added as well.  Another exciting feature we will see in the near future is multi-threading rendering (finally) which will help with your PC's performance when playing WoT. Here's a great dev video that goes into detail about our multi-threading update: GLHF!

TeriyakiTanker:   And all this after after you said you were done with me.  Interesting that you think everyone else has issues.  

TeriyakiTanker:   PREPARATION Preheat oven to 350°F. On a cutting board, split the bell peppers in half from stem to base. Cut out the stem and the seeds. Transfer halved peppers to a baking tray, cavity side up. Sprinkle each half with salt and pepper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until peppers are slightly soft. Sprinkle the mozzarella and half of the chives evenly among the four pepper halves. Crack eggs into the center of each pepper. Sprinkle the salt, pepper, bacon, cheddar, and remaining chives on top of the eggs. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until egg whites are set. Serve!   man that sounds delicious 

MA77:   O Sandbox é aberto algumas vezes durante o ano para que os jogadores possam testar as mudanças mais bruscas do jogo e dar feedback.  

MA77:   Nosso Superteste é fechado. Apenas os desenvolvedores e alguns testers tem acesso ao conteúdo.

MA77: Saudações,   Hoje no Superteste um novíssimo tanque médio tcheco de Nível VIII com carregador automático dá as caras. Em termos de jogabilidade, é muito parecido com os veículos de nível IX e X desta nação, e pode ser menos poderoso que estes por conta de seu nível. A composição da tripulação também é a mesma que a composição dos níveis mais altos.     O tambor do carregador automático do TVP T 27 tem três projéteis e leva 20 segundos para recarregar completamente. O tempo entre os disparos é de 1,8 segundos. O tanque tem um cnahão de 88mm que causa 240 de dano alfa e é mais eficaz em combates de curta e média distância. Seu tempo de mira é de 1,9 segundos e a dispersão é de 0,38m.   Entre os outros pontos fortes deste tanque estão sua alta mobilidade e depressão do canhão. Suas vulnerabilidades vêm com seu tamanho relativamente grande e pouca blindagem.   Mais Fotos     Como sempre, os parâmetros do tanque podem mudar dependendo dos resultados que coletarmos.    Não deixe de acompanhar as novidades e boa sorte em todas as batalhas!

MA77: Saudações,   O servidor US East será desativado nas próximas horas e você poderá conectar-se normalmente ao South America ou US Central. Ele continuará a aparecer no menu, mas será removido quando a próxima atualização chegar.    Grande abraço.

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, Comandantes! En el día de hoy, comenzamos las pruebas para el TVP T 27, un tanque mediano de soporte checoslovaco de nivel VIII con autocargador. En cuanto a su estilo de juego, se parece a los vehículos de nivel alto de la misma nación, aunque es un poco menos poderoso por ser de menor nivel. Lleva la misma cantidad de tripulantes que el nivel X de línea. Imágenes  El tambor del autocargador del TVP T 27 lleva tres proyectiles y tarda 20 segundos en cargarse por completo. El tiempo de recarga entre cada disparo es de 1,8 segundos. El tanque monta un cañón de 88 mm que ocasiona 240 puntos de daño alfa y que es efectivo a cortas y medianas distancias. El tiempo de apuntamiento es de 1,9 segundos, y tiene una dispersión de 0,38 a 100 metros. Entre algunos puntos fuertes del tanque se destacan el ángulo de depresión de su cañón y la movilidad. Sus vulnerabilidades son su tamaño relativamente grande y la carencia de un blindaje efectivo. Como siempre, las especificaciones del vehículo pueden cambiar de acuerdo a los resultados de las pruebas. ¡Sigan las noticias y que la suerte esté de su lado en cada batalla!

MA77:    Com este código, você ativa as missões descritas no artigo e completando-as, ganha suas premiações.

Senator_Ratbat: Hi everyone. Now that holiday activities are behind us we will be disabling the US East server so players can connect to US Central and SA servers respectively. You may still see the disabled server on the dropdown menu, this will be removed when the next update drops.
