DomoSapien:   Really? That's bizarre. 

Looking into it! I'll try to track down a link to the old installer for ya.

DomoSapien: Tankers,

You've been patiently waiting, after several patches of cosmetic and quality-of-life changes, UI updates, Random Rewards, Crew Skins.... we've finally got some more news to share with you about vehicle rebalancing.    Very soon, modified versions of three iconic vehicles—the Type 4 Heavy, the Type 5 Heavy, and the FV4005—will roll out onto the Supertest. The changes being introduced are significant so let’s take a closer look at each vehicle.   Both Japanese heavies will have the stats of their top guns (14-cm and 15-cm) tweaked. The former’s rounds will increase in armor penetration (from 249 mm to 252 mm for the standard shell and from 282 mm to 290 mm for the special shell). The changes to the 15-cm cannon (derp gun will be more severe. The damage of its basic HE round will decrease from 1,100 to 900 points, and the special round will change from HE to HESH, with armor penetration increasing to 192 mm and damage decreasing from 1,400 to 750 points.   Besides all that, the top Japanese heavy will become more mobile, gaining 4 km/h in top forward speed, 3 km/h in top reverse speed, and 3 degrees in hull traverse rate. Its specific power will grow, and gun dispersion on the move and while turning will decrease.   These stat adjustments are to lessen the HE damage share in the overall output of the top Japanese heavies, without revising these vehicles’ basic concept. The changes described above will make the 15-cm gun less efficient, especially against high-tier adversaries. At the same time, the alternate gun will fare better, in part because of the general changes to the parameters of the Tier X tank, and players will have a more substantial choice between the two playstyles.   The stats of the British queen of alpha strikes, the FV 4005, are about to change a lot, too. Most of the tweaks deal with the chassis. The top forward speed will decrease (from 35 km/h to 32 km/h), and the top reverse will drop from 12 km/h to 8 km/h. The same will happen to the engine power (down to 850 hp from 950 hp) and the hull traverse rate (down to 26 degrees from 30 degrees). The gun itself will have less accuracy (with dispersion upped from 0.38 to 0.42), and will take longer to aim (3.7 seconds vs 3 seconds).   With these adjustments implemented, the FV 4005 will retain its key feature—HESH shells with high armor penetration allowing for colossal alpha—with the overall effectiveness of the vehicle decreasing only slightly. The FV 4005 will continue to be a mighty combatant able to take out an enemy with a single strike, yet it will need more time to prepare that shot.

Of course, keeping in mind that this is the first wave of balance tweaks for these vehicles, these parameters are subject to change based on the results of testing.

Assets with stats/parameters are below.  EXPAND      

DomoSapien: So, as long as you didn't migrate your existing world of tanks installation to Game Center, you can just uninstall WGC via control panel and should be good.
If you migrated WoT to Game Center, unfortunately you'll need to uninstall WoT and reinstall it to restore the old launcher.

DomoSapien: So it looks like things might be starting to stabilize a little bit, I was able to log in on my first try and run a couple battles in the glorious T18.

I'm hearing some reports from players and colleagues that were able to log in, but some folks are still hitting the queue error.

Jambijon: No the Classic mode is only available via the WGC.   https://wotclassic.com/   Also, there is no longer an authentication issue but the demand for the classic mode is pretty high which means queue to get in is high until more space is opened up.

BigDaddyLaxative: No the Classic mode is only available via the WGC.   https://wotclassic.com/   Also, there is no longer an authentication issue but the demand for the classic mode is pretty high which means queue to get in is high until more space is opened up.

Jambijon: You can also make it transparent in the settings menu.

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, tanquistas!   Muy pronto, las versiones modificadas de tres famosos vehículos ingresarán al Supertest: el Type 4 Heavy, el Type 5 Heavy y el FV4005. Los cambios aplicados son considerables, así que veamos en detalle los de cada uno.   Cambiamos los parámetros de los cañones de mayor nivel de ambos pesados japoneses: el 14 cm y el 15 cm. Incrementaremos la penetración de los proyectiles del primero (de 249 mm a 252 mm para la munición estándar y de 282 mm a 290 mm para la munición especial), pero los cambios para el segundo serán más severos. Reduciremos el daño de la munición HE del 15 cm de 1100 a 900 puntos, la munición especial pasará a ser una HESH en lugar de una HE, que tendrá una penetración de 192 mm y un daño de 750 puntos.   Además de eso, el pesado japonés de mayor nivel será más ágil, ya que aumentaremos la velocidad final en 4 km/h, la velocidad en reversa en 3 km/h, y la velocidad de giro del chasis en 3 grados. Su potencia específica también aumentará, y tanto la dispersión del cañón en movimiento como al rotar disminuirá.   Estos ajustes disminuirán la capacidad de daño con HE de los pesados japoneses de mayor nivel sin alterar su concepto básico de juego. Los cambios descriptos harán que el cañón de 15 cm sea menos eficiente, especialmente contra adversarios de alto nivel. Al mismo tiempo, su cañón alternativo se comportará mejor, en parte por los cambios generales a las especificaciones del nivel X, y los jugadores tendrán dos opciones de juego igualmente válidas de acuerdo al cañón que elijan.   Las especificaciones de la reina británica del daño alfa, el FV4005, cambiarán bastante también. La mayoría de los cambios están relacionados con su chasis: la velocidad máxima será reducida de 35 km/h a 32 km/h, la velocidad en reversa pasará de 12 km/h a 8 km/h, la potencia específica bajará de 950 CV a 850 CV, y su velocidad de giro será de 26 grados en lugar de 30 grados. Además, el cañón será menos preciso, ya que su dispersión se elevará a 0,42 en vez de 0,38, y también le llevará más tiempo apuntar (de 3 segundos a 3,7 segundos).   Con estos ajustes, el FV4005 retendrá su principal característica: proyectiles HESH con grandes valors de penetración con daño alfa colosal, con la eficacia general del vehículo solo un poco reducida. El FV4005 seguirá siendo un poderoso combatiente capaz de eliminar a un enemigo de un solo golpe, pero le tomará un poco más de tiempo preparar su disparo letal.   Como siempre, tengan en cuenta que todos estos valores pueden seguir cambiando de acuerdo a los resultados de las pruebas.   ¡Sigan las noticias y que la suerte esté de su lado en cada batalla!

DomoSapien: Actual footage of the office this morning:
The real question is which one of us is Dark Helmet, President Scroog, and Colonel Sanders?

Jokes aside, the technical issues are being worked on and we appreciate your patience as well as your burning desire to relive the glory days. We'll definitely post more information as it comes in.

Jambijon: It's alive!! but with a very long queue to get in.  Will keep you updated.

Felipe6666Original: ¡Servidores en línea! Hay cola de espera lo único.   ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original:   Hay mucho más preparado para este año  

Felipe6666Original:   Pues claro, todo como estaba en 2011   ¡Saludos!

Jambijon: Morning Tankers! We are aware of the issues with WoT "Classic" and have been working with the developers on a fix.  Currently, it appears some users were able to get in, but for those who can't are experiencing instability or just can't connect at all. Our devs have charged up their defibrillators and are reviving 0.7.0. "CLEAR!" Once we Frankenstein this update I'll notify this thread as soon as I'm able.

Felipe6666Original: Sí, acabo de actualizar el artículo porque el servidor experimentó problemas apenas comenzó el evento (hubo mucha más cantidad de jugadores intentando ingresar que la esperada), pero parece que seguimos experimentando problemas. Avisaré tan pronto como esté todo funcionando.   ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original:   Por las únicas publicaciones que tenés sanciones es por haber insultado. Afortunadamente, el foro guarda los registros. Si querés discutir las sanciones, podemos discutirlas por privado sin problemas.   ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: Te invito a que leas la propia sección en la que acabás de publicar para que veas la cantidad de hilos con críticas (varios con exceso de toxicidad) antes de hablar de "silenciar" las críticas.   ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, Comandantes! No es ninguna novedad a esta altura del día que mañana abrimos los servidores de World of Tanks Classic, así que sin más preámbulo, dejo inagurada la sección oficial para que dejen sus opiniones (y sugerencias, claro) sobre el evento. También pueden hacer preguntas, claro. Y por si alguien por esas casualidades de la vida se perdió del anuncio y el bombardeo visual que hicimos por todos los medios, esta nota y este video lo sintetizan bien:  ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original:   Somos empleados, como los de cualquier otra empresa, Leoo006   ¡Saludos!

Jambijon: The collection of tanks unofficially dubbed "Snail Squad," has returned!  They're big, they're slow, and sometimes mistaken as a boat, but this squad has finally hit the Premium Shop again. For details on the current offers available, click on the THICC tanks below:

DomoSapien:   WGC isn't doing any "sending." You're logging in with the same game account. We will have a list of accounts that logged into WOTC and completed at least 1 battle, and based off that list the Pawprint style will go out. Click on the following link and download the EXE, that will install WGC.
https://wotclassic.com/en/

 

DomoSapien:
If memory serves me right, when you're installing WGC you will get a prompt asking you if you want to automatically detect existing Wargaming products. Make sure you don't confirm that bit and I think you should be good to go.
