Overlord: Reserved #2.

Overlord: Reserved #1.

Overlord: The will be available for about 2 weeks or even longer, being out for several days won't be a problem.

merig00: You need a month or two for people to build up their list of tanks. Otherwise we'll get maybe a dozen of hard-core clans who'll grind non-stop and take over the map before everyone else catches up.

merig00: There will be no private servers.

merig00: Things of this kind are coming (not specifically your suggestion)

merig00: Did you go through the wipe? The horror of uhm inexperienced players driving around in top tier heavies?
No! No! No!

merig00: They will eventually come. First thing I think (not official, my guess) is layered armor. Look at the prelease notes - the new armor mechanics, and also c hanges in weight limits and the way suspensions work.

That one didn't go through!
We didn't penetrate their armor!

Another one like that should finish them!
We got 'em!
Nice shot!
Enemy is hit.
Enemy armour is damaged.
Penetration.
We've got them.
Bounce:

That one ricocheted!
Ricochet

Critical Hit:

We nailed them bad!
That's gotta hurt!
Looks like that one went right through!

merig00: This is an arcade game with almost realistic tank models. So yes it was meant to be "arcady"
There will be a hardcore mode, so you'll have your fun

merig00: Disable the integrated chip in Device Manager. Sometimes you can also disable it from BIOS too.

merig00: Added both

Overlord: Here you can contribute to the improvement of English voice pack.
I'd like you to break all the suggestions into 2 groups: fixes and improvements.
Fixes should feature all current discrepancies between events and phrases linked to them (e.g. damage_by_near_explosion_by_player -> They almost got us that time!), especially that create confusion and are unclear in any way.
Improvements are to contain your ideas how to substitute/reword/adjust current phrases, or even add new ones.
The suggested changes will be taken into account as far as possible.

merig00: Yeah playing BC2 right now... Can't wait for BF3 - 64 people maps... yey!

Overlord: Unfortunately it hasn't been fixed, but the model itself is ready.

ARGO: You get 3 kids that although have school bags, never seem to go to school asking you for a pokimon ball
I put in a Gundam wing

ARGO: Ok, This is going to blow your minds but when I 1st saw the Westfield map I kept thinking to myself "This place looks so familiar" then it hit me....
Have any of you seen the old 1970s Musical "The sound of music"? It was filmed in Austria and if you google it, the locations are all but idenicle with Westfield and also Lakesville. I would have attached a link but it would not take so go to google and check out (The sound of music location tour) and be AMAZED!!!!!.
There is one warning though, Ever since I made this discovery, I have that musicals stupid theme in my head with a few changes in the words to the song...
THE HILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE SOUND OF GUNFIRE!!!!! Oh God, Now I'll never get that song out of my head.

Overlord: Update servers will be up in about 2 hours. The game is still avialable, use WorldofTanks.exe file to launch the game.

Overlord: Actually, this line shouldn't be there. The fix hasn't been added.

Overlord: This issue will be addressed in the next update, as it was announced.

Overlord: The news on pre-orders will appear on the website in about two weeks before the actual release.

merig00: closed

merig00: They are afraid of heights

merig00: They are afraid of heights

merig00: Start with tinkering with these settings http://forum.worldof...preferencesxml/
if that doesn't work install
Compressed Textures: http://forum.worldof...-pack-and-more/

merig00: You are a horrible, horrible human being

merig00: per OPs request topic is closed and junked

ARGO: Subject moved to Vehicles German Tank Destroyers
Argo66

Overlord: These changes were not planned for v.0.6.3.8. Match-making system and visibility/spotting mechanics will be reworked in the next major update.

Overlord: Nope. Maths rules don't apply here, just one extra line.

Overlord: It will be active when cal wars are introduced.

Overlord: Match-making values (not the spread) will be seriously reconsidered in 0.6.4, tier 8 heavies won't be balanced with tier 9 mediums.

Overlord: Match-making system v.0.6.3.x. Your feedback is welcome here.

merig00: Been suggested multiple times. And devs rejected multiple times for exact reasons Kriegs posted.

merig00: Devs were toying with an idea of creating a "European Tech Tree" which would include tanks from different euroepan countries. AFAIK this is still just an idea. So maybe in the distant future after US TDs, French Tanks, British Tanks, Japanese Tanks, and all the other stuff we will get them

merig00: And OP is not even a Beta Tester. Since we all figured out that it's on OPs end this post is closed. If OP have a specific problem (s)he is welcome to create a ticket at http://support.worldoftanks.com

merig00: Why would you need that many for WoT anyway?
