MA77: Saudações, O caça-tanques chinês de Nível X, o 114 SP2, chegará ao Superteste em breve. 
A primeira coisa que vale a pena mencionar aqui é a blindagem relativamente fraca do veículo. Até mesmo as placas de blindagem frontal não são mais espessas do que 135 mm. O veículo tem uma potência específica de 15.6 hp/t que permite atingir velocidades de até 45 km/h. Além disso, o veículo conta com um total de 2.000 pontos de vida.
Este caça-tanques vem equipado com um canhão de 152 mm com 650 HP de dano médio instalado em uma torre giratória de 360 ​​graus e tem penetração de 273 e 329 mm com os projéteis AP e APCR, respectivamente. Além disso, o veículo possui um bom tempo de mira de 2.3 s, dispersão de 0.35 e uma velocidade de recarga de 16.6 s.
Para um veículo tão grande, o 114 SP2 apresenta uma bela combinação de boa mobilidade e alto poder de fogo. Apenas tenha em mente que você sempre pode compensar fraca e vulnerável blindagem recorrendo ao combate posicional. Grande abraço!

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys! The Chinese Tier X tank destroyer 114 SP2 will soon be joining the Supertest.The first thing that is worth mentioning here is the vehicle's relatively weak armor. Even its frontal armor plates don't get thicker than 135 mm. The vehicle has a specific power of 15.6 h.p./t which enables it to reach speeds of up to 45 km/h. Total HP: 2,000.This tank destroyer comes equipped with a 152 mm gun fitted in a 360-degree revolving turret and boasts 650 HP of single-shot damage, while armor penetration by the standard armor-piercing and special APCR shells is 273 and 329 mm, respectively. Besides, the vehicle features an aiming time of 2.3 s, an accuracy of 0.35, and a reload speed of 16.6 s.For such a large machine, the 114 SP2 presents a nice combination of good mobility and high firepower. Just keep in mind that you can always compensate for the weak, vulnerable armor by resorting to positional combat.

KRZYBooP: A map for Standard BattleSize: 1050x1050 mSetting: tropics1) The main area for an encounter of well-armored tanks is located at the shoreline under the central mountain ridge. Several control points, as well as the option to go above the area of the main encounter, make the gameplay there very intense.2) The inner area of the map. An open, hilly zone with vegetation that allows for both active and passive light tank gameplay. 3) The main area for a medium tank encounter. Diverse terrain, plenty of cover, and opportunities to fight at close or long range allow different types of medium tanks to unlock their potential in this line of attack.4) Upper path for taking a dangerous detour around the main encounter area. 5) Main positions for poorly armored tank destroyers and medium tanks.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys! The third iteration of the Island 2020 map changed following the results of the second supertest. General description:Size: 1000х1000 m Mode: Standard Battle Setting: tropical island Changes compared to the second iterationChange description:1) The position with the castle was moved forward a bit. Both this position and the TD position above the arc (zone 5) are now within drawing distance from each other.2) The route to the hill was reworked. Now it’s accessible to both teams and much more dangerous. The lines of fire from the hill itself remained the same.3) Improved the heavy tank attack area for the lower team. Now it will be easier for them to attack.4) Added an additional area of defense for the lower team.5) Improved the tank destroyer balcony for the lower team.

TragicLoss:

I can consider other types of giveaways and other interactions (We have stream bingo on Tuesdays!), but I prefer keeping Weekly Watchers as it currently is with room for improvements versus operational changes to distribution.

I am coming up with more ways to do giveaways currently and I'm always hoping that people don't just come to the streams for giveaways (it's really discouraging when the first time someone chats in our stream is "Giveaway? ". It's a fine balance. It's one reason I don't like doing them often. I want to reward regulars and encourage people to become regulars or at the very least 'irregulars' who come to the streams every now and again to even just to ask a single question and then lurk. 

Working as Intended is a great source for information and clarification and if people don't find that worthwhile, that's okay. I want them to know it's available to them and if they end up liking it, they get a nice little bonus in the form of a weekly code that gives them some boosters, consumables, and an end of the month bonus for attendance to multiple streams.

Like I said before, I'm not here to cater to people who don't watch the streams. The reward isn't large because that would encourage more code leakage. it's a reward that's nice enough to pick up the code during the second hour of our Tuesday stream or the makeup code after our Thursday streams every week or so. It's not really any effort at all. I don't expect people to start watching the stream just to get free rewards all the time. 

I am just making sure the reward is nice enough for the people who support our streams and participate without it seeming like a bribe to watch.

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, Comandantes! En el día de hoy, cinco mapas ingresan al Supertest: dos de ellos son versiones actualizadas de dos nuevos mapas ya anunciados, Isla y Graf Zeppelin, mientras que los otros tres son escenarios totalmente novedosos: Sommar, Tropika y Ivanovka. Isla Antes de ir a los cambios respecto de la segunda versión, recordemos una vez más que Isla se trata de un mapa de 1000x1000 metros para batallas estándar, que está basado en una isla tropical.  Imágenes https://imgur.com/a/R4ZomIS  Movimos un poco hacia adelante la posición con el castillo. Tanto esta posición como la de los cazatanques, que están ubicadas sobre el arco (zona 5), se encuentran dentro de la distancia de dibujado de cada una. Rehicimos el camino hacia la colina. Ahora es accesible para ambos equipos, pero es mucho más peligroso. Matuvimos iguales las líneas de disparo desde la colina en sí. Mejoramos la zona para los tanques pesados del equipo sur. Ahora podrán atacar con mayor facilidad. Agregamos una zona de defensa adicional para el equipo sur. Mejoramos el “balcón” para los cazatanques del equipo sur. Ahora es más provechoso para defender las líneas que convergen en la base desde allí.  Graf Zeppelin Antes de ir a los cambios respecto de la primera versión, recordemos que Graf Zeppelin se trata de un mapa de 1000x1000 metros para batallas estándar con un ambiente invernal.  Imágenes https://imgur.com/a/vdaigE6 Hicimos ajustes basados en los comentarios de los Supertesters y en la experiencia de los desarrolladores (solo contemplamos aquellos que sugirieron cambios que no pueden afectar potencialmente otros componentes de la jugabilidad en formación del mapa): Limitamos el movimiento en el terraplén alrededor de las líneas de ferrocarril para incrementar la predictibilidad de las acciones enemigas. Agregamos cobertura en el área de captura de la base. Agregamos cobertura para que los vehículos estén protegidos al comienzo de la batalla. Hicimos ajustes de equilibrio y algunas mejoras. Más mejoras de equilibrio.  Sommar Este nuevo mapa es un escenario de 1000x1000 metros para batallas estándar con temática estival.  Imágenes https://imgur.com/a/gpO4NFe   Un pueblo con calles angostas, apropiado para vehículos con buen blindaje.  Colinas con poca vegetación y cobertura para vehículos maniobrables y juego de distancias. El equipo que controle esta zona tendrá acceso a la colina del punto 3.  Una colina con bastante vegetación y cobertura, que tiene buenas posiciones para disparar hacia la zona 1.  Un pantano con pastos densos y altos. Contiene una línea adicional para colarse en la retaguardia enemiga.  Tropika Este nuevo mapa es un escenario de 1050x1050 metros para batallas estándar con temática tropical.  Imágenes https://imgur.com/a/LpxBVh  El área principal para el enfretamiento de vehículos bien protegidos se encuentra en la costa debajo de la cordillera central de la montaña. Varios puntos de control, así como la opción de ir por encima del área de choque principal, hacen que la jugabilidad aquí sea muy intensa. El área interior del mapa. Una zona abierta y montañosa con vegetación que permite el juego de los tanques ligeros activos y pasivos. El área principal para un enfrentamiento de tanques medianos. El terreno diverso, la gran cobertura y las oportunidades para luchar a corta o larga distancia permiten que diferentes tipos de tanques medianos desaten todo su potencial en esta línea de ataque. Camino superior para tomar un desvío peligroso alrededor del área principal de enfrentamiento. Posiciones principales para cazatanques y tanques medianos con poco blindaje.  Ivanovka Este nuevo mapa es un escenario de 1000x1000 metros para batallas estándar basado en el frente oriental de la Segunda Guerra Mundial.  Imágenes https://imgur.com/a/1OorU8c   El hueco a lo largo de la costa helada se adapta al juego de tanques pesados. El área con vegetación proporcionará posiciones para cazatanques y exploración pasiva. Terreno irregular para la exploración activa con tanques ligeros. Una colina con buenas posiciones para tanques medianos.  Como siempre, recuerden que todos los cambios no son definitivos y que están sujetos a los resultados de las pruebas. ¡Dejen sus opiniones! ¡Mucha suerte en el campo de batalla!

TragicLoss: Lmao

TragicLoss: You don't have to watch for an hour. Just drop into the stream after the first hour. 

TragicLoss: I am not here to convince you to play. The code is for our regulars, it's a nice bonus for anyone who stops by the stream or watches it regularly. 
I'm really not here to cater to people who pick up the code outside of the stream. It's a punch card for a free coffee at your favorite cafe. 

¯\_(ツ)_/¯  I'm not sure what else to tell you.

Sass intended.

 

TragicLoss:

Thanks for the suggestions! 

The codes are limited as they are intended to be a reward for those who come to the streams on a regular basis. Kind of like a rewards card, a lil bonus for our regulars.

The make-up code was to help those regulars who wanted to keep up the streak bonus, but maybe had plans uphold (family comes first!).

I definitely understand the hope that players get the code from this thread, but increasing the limit has had zero impact on the viewership. I appreciate Warchild's code thread and we've spoken about best practices as to be respectful to the intent behind the Weekly Watcher Code.

Unfortunately, this also means regardless the code will find its way to forums/discords/social media so there is no way to stop the spread, and increasing rewards would only increase the possibility and the reward for those who get the code outside of stream time.

Quick Edit:

The use amount is by no means "small" 750 for the Tuesday one and 1000 for Thursday. Our average viewership is around upwards of 350~. Essentially double the viewers get the code before the stream end, which means not only do those watching have a possibility of missing out, but that means viewers are spreading it so quickly that 750 people use it within the stream time and we see none of the benefits.

stabbymckill: If you have been chosen please check your email as soon as possible so we can coordinate prizing. Thanks again for everyone's hard work and dedication. I will be pushing to try and make this a yearly contest over the holiday season. 

stabbymckill: Thank you all for your participation, this was a ton of fun for all of us and I can't wait to do it again next year!

stabbymckill: Winners have been posted!  I will be reaching out to them via PM and email so please be on the look out. 

stabbymckill: "​Go Wild" Category top three

First place: Large scale Maus by A1VAR054
Meter long Maus, amazing work!
Additional photos and description  A1VAR054's description:
to create it i literally used a ruler and take measurements on my computer screen using the model of the maus in the game lol, then with these measurements multiply the scale and created some blueprints, and with cardboard, plastoform, paper mache and a lot of paint i made this 1 meter size maus, hope you like it commanders!







 
Second Place: Papercraft T-1 Cunningham by Duarte

Stunning work from start to finish. 





 Additional photos and description  Duarte's description
T1 Cunningham
T1 Cunningham - paper, Cardboard- glue, super glue, acrylic paint, metallic nail paint. using prints and reference images to have an scale from the construction(diorama) for the model, about 36hrs to finish, this time I made a small one.



Third Place: Papercraft Tiger II By AcmeZera

stabbymckill: Good morning Tankers,  After much debate and discussion between The Chieftain, Cabmech and myself we have decided on winners for both categories of the contest! It was not an easy decision and we ended up discussing it over the course of the last three days. However, we have indeed come to a final decision and I am pleased to announce the following:
 Traditional category Top Three

  First Place: AMX-13 By LordSeaCow.

The almost photo realistic build of AMX-13 "Duroc" of the 11 regiment de chasseurs in it's non standard paint as it appears in a period reference photo was simply incredible. As Chief put it "it looks like a real vehicle". Amazing work, well earned first place!
Additional images and description LordSeaCow's description I chose the Tamiya 1/35 AMX 13 because I love the French lights and it seemed like a very unique kit. I based my model on a historical photo of an AMX 13 that was part of the 11 regiment de chasseurs stationed in Berlin during the early part of the cold war (http://www.chars-fra...singen 1970.jpg). This regiment was painted in a black color instead of the normal French army green of the time. I built the kit with some additional photo-etch parts and airbrushed base colors with acrylic paints. Weathering was done with a mix of oil, enamel, and acrylic paints.  Second Place: Tiger 1 Ausf E by Boblord69
Above and beyond work on the overall diorama and excellent figure painting skills. 

Additional Images and description  Boblord69's description
Tamiya base model, Aber barrel, Aber photo etch set, Friulmodel tracks, tiger model design turret, Figures are dragon and tamiya.Airbrushed Tamiya paint and weathering with oils and pigments.







   Third Place: Tie

We have a tie for third place, between two unique builds of which both are lesser covered subjects in AFV scale modeling

Somua S-35 "Henrique" by Stat_McPadding
Lovely work and weathering on this S-35 and as Chief put it, it is indeed shiny like most of the real ones tended to be. Well done!


 Additional images and description  Stat_McPadding's description
I built this model straight from the box, without any aftermarket parts. Tamiya paints were used for the colours. Weathering was made with a pencil for the steelshowing beneath the worn paint in the corners. Dusty effects were done with MIG pigments, using the dry brush technique.










 


JGSDF Type 61 by PWT32
Not something you see too often in modelling. Well done, especially at the smaller 1/72 scale. We appreciated the full matching diorama as well. 



 Additional images and description  PWT32's description:
Japanese Type 61 (Fujimi 1/76)

Tier 8 tanks in WOT have frontline and Tier 10 vehicles get special skins, but what about Tier 9? They are the most economical to run but don't get anything special in the game. For my Tier 9 Japanese Type 61 I created a new "skin" to turn my tank into a Mountain Sniper. A special 4 color camo provides all season cover, thick camo nets are provided to increase the camo rating, an infrared spotlight for night fighting and additional fuel is provided via a 55 gal drum attached to the rear of the tank. I used a 1/76 Fujimi kit as my base and added some tissue paper tarps to cover my gun, camo nets made from Gauze bandages, a resin 55 Gal drum mounted on the hull and Value Gear tarps were added to the turret rear. The smoke dispensers and spotlight came from the kit as optional parts. Antennas are thin electrical wire cut from an old cord. Kit was painted with Tamiya paints and weathered with AK, Mig and Citadel washes and pigments. Of course I parked her in an old school WOT garage slot with extra equipment stacked around the tank. I only have 1 barrel mark on my Type 61 so that's what she got - hand painted on the fume extractor. I provided a size comparison photo (4) and an in progress photo (5) to show the add-ons to the kit before painting.

 Special achievement award

Simply for overall herculean effort, we had to recognize Zalsbak and his fully 3D printed and remote controlled T26E3 with Chuck Norris as commander. Amazing work!

 Additional images and description  Zalsbak's description
Completely designed and 3D printed from scratch, this 1/25 scale Eagle 7 roams the streets of Cologne under the command of none other than Chuck Norris himself! Top secret technology (an Arduino, old cell phone batteries, and small electric motors) is built in and will soon allow bluetooth control of the tracks and turret. After thorough filling and sanding to remove 3D print lines, all parts were primed, spray painted olive green, and hand brushed with acrylic to apply dirt, wear, and weathering details. The backdrop buildings were inspired by 1945 Cologne architecture and are constructed in a similar method. Slight changes were made to the tank design to better facilitate 3D printing of some elements. The turret, commanders hatch, cargo box lids, and all guns are moveable. The tool box, repair kits, water cans, and engine covers can be removed. Track sections are separate 3D printed parts connected with 1mm metal pins.

Felipe6666Original: Si hubiera una confusión generalizada con tickets por todos lados y no se hubiera explicado bien desde el principio cómo iba a funcionar esto, sí, ameritaría una explicación oficial, un pedido de disculpas y, potencialmente, una compensación acorde. Pero no es el caso, estaba claro desde el principio, porque si vamos a tomar como válido ese punto, entonces también habría que demandar una explicación de por qué hubo un cambio con respecto a lo orginalmente anuncuado en lugar de simplemente tomarlo como válido y ya. ¡Saludos!

TeriyakiTanker: How do you even know they play on the SA server?

TeriyakiTanker: Well after 9.18 when they introduced the new graphics and 3/5/7 MM they lost something like 1/3 of the player population on this server and didn't roll anything back so not sure it will make a difference if they make a backup or not.

Felipe6666Original: La bonificación a los créditos aplica solamente a los vehículos de las Operaciones Festivas que tengan asignados, no a todos los vehículos del Garage. Así se lo explica desde que se publicó la guía del evento. De hecho, en el artículo de donde se tomó esa captura, también se lo explica así (en "¡Obtengan la bonificación máxima para los créditos!" ), pero es verdad que se presta a confusiones. Voy a pedirle a los chicos de Contenido si lo pueden arreglar. ¡Saludos!

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys!  Three tanks are on sale to offer a little something for everyone.  Wanna be super tiny and do some passive scouting?  This is the ride for you! Starting at 27.99 Sneaky Sniper with higher penetrating normal ammo to save you money?  ISU 130 is what you are looking for, and starts at 45.99.  Want a tank with a very fearsome name, and can block something every once in a while.  The Tiger 131 is for you and starts at 17.99.  All these sales are running from 11Jan until 25Jan. More information on these sales can be found HERE.

stabbymckill: Thank you everyone for your submissions, judging is currently underway. Expect the announcement either later today or early tomorrow morning. There were so many quality ones it will be a tough decision. I will be posting the winners in a separate thread in the contest sub forum. 

Felipe6666Original: No hay ni 2000 tanques de cada uno ni 600 en total. Son 3150 tanques de recompensa de nivel X para los 3150 mejores en el Salón de la Fama. El precio de cada tanque se determina por la cantidad de puntos de fama personales recibidos por el jugador en la posición 3150 al término del evento. Los 600 tanques son los que hay para la subasta, para quienes no hayan ingresado al top 3150. Lógicamente, quienes hagan las mejores ofertas se llevan el tanque (nada nuevo). ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: Sin entrar en detalles (no puedo todavía), entiendo a los que tienen miedo o bronca anticipada por cambios de los cuales ni siquiera hay muchos detalles, porque simplemente el historial no nos respalda con muchas cosas. Todo lo demás es desinformación pura y agarrarse de todos los errores de Wargaming para inventar cualquier cosa. ¡Hasta tengo un top 4 de mis favoritas! Vehículos de colección: "¡VAN A QUITAR TANQUES PARA SIEMPRE COMO EN BLITZ!" - Hay gente que aún sostiene que quitamos al Hetzer... Equipamiento 2.0: "¡NOS ESTÁN ROBANDO LOS CRÉDITOS INVERTIDOS!" - Todos los que no se molestaron en leer que, en verdad, podían sacar una tonelada de créditos a favor. Tripulación 2.0: "¡VAN A HACER LO MISMO QUE EN CONSOLA! ¡NO VAN A DAR COMPENSACIÓN DE NADA!" - Los equipos de cada versión de World of Tanks son distintos, y a cada uno le importa poco y nada lo que haga el otro. Cualquier elemento de personalización no histórico: "¡ESTO YA PARECE CUALQUIER COSA! ¡FALTA QUE METAN A BARBIE Y A HELLO KITTY!" - Usuario que no se enteró que puede elegir no ver nada que no sea histórico, solo le molesta que no todos sean fans de la SGM en un juego que no está basado en la SGM.  En cualquier caso, aprecio la intención del hilo para evitar justamente todas las reacciones típicas, pero, desafortunadamente, creo que contribuye más a lo otro, porque esa es la dinámica actual. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: ¡Buena, _EvilMorty_!  ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: ¡Gracias, Rommel!  ¡Saludos! P.D.: Y sí, sin recompensas, no hay participación... Irónico pensar que esa idea vino de quien dijo que sus ideas no eran tenidas en cuenta. En fin, igual no hay quien compile los informes para LATAM de momento (por eso no hago más los hilos), pero las opiniones hasta ahora son bastante coincidentes con las de NA, así que tan mal no estamos.

Felipe6666Original: Cierro este porque va acá: http://forum.worldof...el-emparejador/ ¡Saludos! P.D.: Hago un poco de moderación hasta que haya reemplazo.

Felipe6666Original: Algún le iba a tocar al Chieftain: ya habíamos avisado que los tanques iban a ir rotando o que el pool se iba a hacer más chico para algunos eventos. ¿Recuerdan Cortafuegos? No tuvo al VK ni al E6, pero bueno, como esos no están tan valorados como el Chieftain, a nadie le importó ¿Recuerdan también que hubo toda una movida hace un año porque "íbamos a sacar al 907 para siempre"? Bueno, no terminó pasando. El Chieftain ya regresará para otro evento, aunque, personalmente, pienso que lo mejor sería que no vuleva más o nerfearlo hasta los cimientos. Igual el tema del Chieftain es más en CWs, en Randoms es muy fácil de enfrentar con spam de HE  Y como un añadido personal: el Chieftan no da manos. Es lo mismo que jugar con munición "de oro". ¿Hace mejores a los que ya son buenos? ¡Seguro! ¿Es un problema? ¡Por supuesto! ¿Hacen de un rojo un violeta? Ni en lo más remoto. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: Bueno, cierro el hilo. Si hay alquien que todavía no reclamó su premio, puede pedírmelo por privado. ¡Saludos!

MA77:  Disponha, Lucas! 

MA77:  Oi, Shiko. No passado, alguns veículos já ficaram de fora de eventos do Mapa Global: o Obejct 907, o VK 72.01 (K) e alguns outros que não me recordo agora. O Chieftain poderá voltar em eventos futuros, assim como ocorreu com os demais citados. Grande abraço!   

DomoSapien:
Well, it's not a consumables sale but there is currently a 50% off equipment sale going on in NA! So make sure you take advantage of that, and I'd be more than happy to put in a good word with the Monetization folks about the fact that NA players are waiting for a consumables sale

DomoSapien: There's a lot to unpack here and I don't want to overexplain too much because pretty much every assumption you've made about tonight's show couldn't be further from the truth.

Today was our first Friday back in office after the holidays. Talkin' Tanks is tentatively scheduled for every other Friday from 6 - 8 PM, as prep time and involvement from our guests permits. The idea behind the show, and the idea behind, say, KrzyBoop's creative stream, is to incorporate more content variety into our stream schedule.

Quite frankly, I didn't even realize this weekend is Team Clash. I completely forgot because I've been slammed with messages and projects, catching up from being on vacation for a week. And honestly: It's an EU event. We've got something in the works for NA but it's too early to share info in that regard because it's still being worked on - and I honestly have next to no info about it because I'm not involved in that project. 

I am, however, involved with "Talkin' Tanks". The goal of tonight's show was to hang out with a fantastic group of content creators that we have the priveledge to work with, whom we consider personal friends - while hopefully directing some extra eyes towards their weekly co-stream, "WoT Now!?"; Combined across all 3 of our streaming platforms (twitch, Facebook, and Youtube) we had about 300 peak viewers. I can pretty much guarantee you that the viewership Mailand, Dez, Skill, and AEG are going to be receiving this weekend will far exceed 300 viewers (or the ~130 we had on Twitch.) 

We, NA Staff, interviewed and ran platoons with NA Contributors, on our NA-centric channel, and it so happened to coincide with the EU Team Clash event. Taking the spotlight away from Dez, Skill, AEG, and Mailand was not the goal, (or even an afterthought, for that matter, because it was never something we set out to do.) and if you were to ask them personally I doubt any of them even noticed that we were streaming. The good news is that the Team Clash event is running all weekend, so you can still show support for your favorite EU CC's by tuning into their channels until 6:00 AM CET on January 11th!

That said, while I have everyone's attention, please check out the EU Team Clash event, but also check out the NA Contributors we interviewed tonight. All 3 of them are really an amazing group of folks, and they are quite deserving of your support. Far moreso than lil' ol' me and the talk show I cohost.
