dance210:   Nope. Think of the points as unlocking different levels. Ten points unlocks the first level. Earning 25 points unlocks levels 1 and 2....you can pick a prize from each level, you can't use them to unlock level 1 twice.

dance210:   The Large Repair Kits is the in-game reward for completing the "Get 10 September Points" mission.   The prize you are talking about is something that you select on tankrewards.com. You won't be able to use your points until October, after your points are added to the tankrewards.com site.
Does that make sense?

JayStark02: Going to go ahead and close this thread. It has become nothing more than an argument.

Saffr0n:   Chat scroll has already been reported. The basic chat functionality isn't a core game mechanic.   

Saffr0n:   ​Do you have a replay of this happening? It's also possible that you got shot in the tracks repeatedly...

Saffr0n: From September 15th through October 3rd, take a trip down memory lane and fight in this new, exciting event, where combat is intense and dynamic, and the rules of play are novel and engaging. Please let us know of any Bugs or Issues you experience along the way.    Please note the following issues

GhostPrime:  Attention Tankers!
There are plans to release Micropatch 9.15.2 on September 15th, 2016Maintenance will begin at 02:00 Pacific Time (09:00 UTC) and will last approximately one hour.During maintenance, the World of Tanks servers will be unavailable. Patch Notes:
1. Add event “Convoy”

GhostPrime: Personally, I like both. a PC can be upgraded and a console can't (As of this point in time) PCs do have more longevity, but are far more expensive. With a console it's a dedicated Graphics machine, a PC on the other hand is multi-purpose. A decent GPU will run you the cost of a console. Another thing is that the games on console are tested on one or two set of hardware (PS4,Xbone) and are for more guaranteed to run on that hardware than a PC due to extensive QA. Not all PCs are made the same. The hardware varies, as well os OS, and background tasks that run on PCs. These all affect the Games playing on the computers.     

GhostPrime: We are investigating this issue currently.

Saffr0n:   Turret Lock in sniper mode is working for me...http://imgur.com/a/HV4HC The complaint system has been updated, do you have any specific feedback on how you want it "fixed" Matchmaking is based on server population. You will see more lopsided matches in CT because of low server population and the server forcing matches so there isn't a long wait time. No ninja nerf, just legendary latency. I can confirm that garage notifications from past battles is popping up, but they disappear on their own. No need to open up the notification menu

Volier_Zcit: Please be reminded that topics like this are not allowed in our Forums since it always starts unnecessary arguments which always results in people violating our Forum Rules. Thread closed.

Volier_Zcit: Alright, that's it. Thread closed.

GhostPrime:   Unfortunately, the shirts are being shipped to the US only, that is a limitation of our distribution chain. We are working to improve on this for our future contests, and events.   

GhostPrime:   Troll me harder Wargaming, pls.....   Sorry for the confusion on this subject. The Alternate Prize will be announced after September 19th, so please stay tuned. Thank you for your patience! 

Saffr0n:   No, it was only announced so it won't show up in the CT You are given a drop-down option to send the crew to the barracks or dismiss them in the same UI -- This has not changed.  Noted Noted This is more of a preference Thank you, how did you get all that weight up there 

GhostPrime: I'm going to close this thread due to the subject matter. OP, look for a PM from me. 

Saffr0n:   What is your screen resolution for both your monitor setting and in-game setting? Minimap is constrained by resolution. 

Saffr0n:   which vehicle did you test this on and have you accounted for latency?

Saffr0n:   Follow this link and update your firewall settings.   

GhostPrime: Thank you for your continued feedback in this thread. We would like to hear more from everyone about some of the other features of the CT Like:   Tank Comparison UI Improved Notification Center functionality Improved mission UI The option to visit the Premium Shop from the Garage Improved Clan-related functionality New Sounds Paris map

The_Chieftain: Found on Reddit.   https://i.redditmedi...114b3c40a802641   Well, since T26E4 was just "More powerful gun", that seems to be just that. What does it say M26E2 was? If it's the 105mm howitzer variant (in service as M45), then it's definitely mixing up with the Ts and Ms.

GhostPrime: Please stop the arguing off topic posting, or I will have to shut down this thread. Please keep on topic.

The_Chieftain: It is time for TAHOA to be retired. It was already getting a bit beat up from all the weather and airplanes, and finally the leather sweatband has cracked. Another AHOA shall be acquired, but the question becomes, what shall come off TAHOA Mk I? 

The_Chieftain:   Well, it -was- the main battle tank of the US Army for a couple of decades. We had a few lying around after M1 took over...

The_Chieftain:   Jingles force you to watch Battle of Britain? Father Ted needs to be watched even without the accent assistance. Could be worse. The Jadotville movie is out soon. Lots of Irish accents and FALs

The_Chieftain:   The difference between that one, and the one below, was that the turbo encabulator was deliberately designed to be technobabble. The below, however, is from a US Air Force training video. And, once one gets over the shock, if you think about it, it actually makes sense.  

JayStark02: Alright guys, the forums aren't the place to talk about politics. Please keep it on topic.

The_Chieftain: Ok, this is getting uncomfortable again. Subsequent posts on this will vanish.   By the way, it's about time for another thread title change. Open for suggestions.

The_Chieftain:   That was done years ago. At least five. Actually, now I look, the page is still up, and it shows its age. http://montego.rough...om/gun_cam.html   As to the Japanese tanks, or any tanks at all, here are some considerations.   1) Cost of flying me to the tank. 2) Cost of flying camera crew in.   In order to get value for those, it has to be a place with multiple tanks. Going to do one or two doesn't really cut it. I'm thinking here particularly of the Ropkey Chi Ha. The only time I've done a onesie has been when my trip was already paid for for some other event. Now, there are compromises: Filming in MVTF cost all but nothing, but we bring in an external filming crew for a few days from LA. On the other hand, the cost of getting me to Kubinka was rather offset by Minsk sending an in house team who just drove up. (Plus I was inn Minsk anyway)   3) Cost of access. This varies. One excellent collection in the US is off limits because they're charging a heck of a lot of money for access to the vehicles.   4) Ease of access. Dealing with the Army's bureaucracy is sufficiently annoying that I am in no hurry to do it. Especially given that T28's tracks are off, still. Then see points 1 and 2. Everyone has to fly in.   That's all only some of the considerations, there's more.   So, for now, Benning, Bovvie and Kubimka aren't on my likely list until at least next year.

Volier_Zcit: This has turned into political discussions with name callings and unnecessary arguments. Thread Closed.

GhostPrime:  Hello Tankers! Wargaming Customer Support is now on Twitter! Follow @WargamingCS to get updates on patches, downtimes, and all other support related info! We're also currently running a Follow, Retweet, and Win campaign through Sunday. Players are selected daily to win $50 worth of in-game goods (prizes vary based on what game you want the prize in, and what vehicles you already own!) What do I do to win?Follow @WargamingCS on Twitter Retweet this tweet https://twitter.com/...947635921059840 Winners selected daily for the next 3 days! Detailed rules - http://bit.ly/WGACSTwitter

The_Chieftain: Yes, but the problem is that the sunshield/visors seems to prevent the hatch from opening sufficiently far to actually engage the lock. They seem to be an Australian modification?   That said, I may have not given it enough credit. Given that the periscopes do rotate, it's entirely possible that if you rotate the periscopes to the correct position, it moves the visor sufficiently to allow enough clearance for the latches to engage. I didn't think of it at the time.

Saffr0n:   Your issue is related to ping, whether you believe it or not. Both test servers are geographically located in Russia, which is why ALL regions participate in the same common test. I know that your IP is coming from the United States so it's inevitable that you will experience lag due to the redirect hops.    From the patch notes:  Cross-team battle chat disabled for all game modes except in Training Rooms Hover over the battle chat to freeze messages, scroll through messages and open the context menu with a right-click Hover or right-click to restrict messages (chat and voice chat) from particular players for the duration of battle in all modes except Training Rooms Messages received before blacklisting a player or restricting their messages in battle are hidden Players can complain about the same player only once per battle Inappropriate behavior in chat constitutes four complaint reasons: insults and provocation; spam; out-of-game threats; fraud Can disable/enable chat with allies in Settings menu (Random battles only)   There were no changes made to the T110E5, if there were, it would have been listed on the patch notes. Artillery still exists because we didn't remove it. It would be illogical for us exclude premium ammunition on a test server if it's going to  exist when we release the actual patch. Thank you for your feedback.
