MA77: Saudações, comandantes. As alterações no mapa "126_japort" foram realizadas especialmente na área destinada aos tanques médios e leves. Como resultado: A região tem maior espaço para manobras. O ponto de passagem foi melhorado para torná-lo menos vulnerável. As possibilidades de variações táticas foram ampliadas.  Mais Imagens É importante também mencionar que reduzimos as áreas não jogáveis do mapa. Com isso, continuamos a melhorar este novo mapa em nosso Superteste!

TeriyakiTanker: So what are you talking about with the 2 million credits?   Is this a complaint about crew books?

MA77: Saudações, comandantes. Os novos tanques pesados italianos de Nível VII e VIII acabaram de chegar no Superteste.   Qual a sua opinião sobre esses dois veículos? Grande abraço!

Einzelganger7: I do not care if people hate them and I do not mind to watch them while I am getting destroyed because back when they introduced them it resulted me a nice feature so it is nice they returned them, my only complain is that we can't personalize the dogtag with the icon we want, there were some nice ones like the animals (tiger, wolf, snake, etc) but I hope they can add more personalization options in the future.

Einzelganger7:
You're right, at least those employees are not in Crimea, though this still means no buffs to German tanks but at least no nerfs either to recently buffed ones like the poor Leopard PT A, I hope.

Einzelganger7:

Einzelganger7:
Indeed, and do not forget it will have ATGM system.

Einzelganger7:
Yeah, I guess those trolls would be like a 1% chance, but unfortunately I am so paranoid to accept any dynamic platoon at the beginning. lol

On a side note I found that video, the trolling by dynamic platooning starts at the minute 2:25.
   

Einzelganger7: I guess this means even more noticeable soviet bias incoming, heh.

Einzelganger7:
Absolutely. Or they could also return the Hetzer to the tech tree to start from it, then put this beauty at tier 5. A Hetzer with a 150mm cannon but of course with really low rate of fire to balance it, then Brummbär at tier six and so on with prototypes up to the Sturmtiger at tier 10.

Einzelganger7: Personally, I've felt scared to even think in accepting dynamic platoon at the beginning of a match because for what I've seen on Claus' videos, people can troll you with physics abuse and either kill you by drowning or by throwing you for a cliff and they do not turn blue. So I only accept their invitations at the end for people who want to rig the brothers in arms medal.

Einzelganger7:
Well, the game is rated T(een) by te ESRB so yeah. The chat is not a local bar where you can talk with the most foul language possible and expect others to see it as a normal thing, so is not a "snowflake" thing nor anything related to new generations, it is the fact this game is available for teens so you as an adult should be responsible and mind your language, but since basically nobody does, this is why I decided to disable the chat since almost 2 years ago.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys! Check this stuff out!   

Einzelganger7: I'd prefer a Sturmtiger derp TD branch, the Sturmpanzer IV (aka Brummbär) could fit well at tier VI or VII.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys!  Ranked battles season 2 start 26Oct and run until 16Nov.   Earn prizes from styles and consumables up to the Concept 1B. More information on this can be found HERE.

Felipe6666Original: Bueno, atento a sus opiniones, logré extender el horario estelar para la segunda temporada por 1 hora. Antes que digan nada, a mí también me parece insuficiente, pero tengan en cuenta este pequeño detalle: a partir del 1 de noviembre, Estados Unidos adelanta sus horarios por el DST (Daylight Savings Time), lo que implica que esta hora extra, que para los primeros 6 días de la temporada lleva el horario límite en SA a las 23:00 (ARG), llevará el límite hasta las 00:00 (ARG). Quizás a más de uno le interese saber por qué los horarios del SA cambian junto con los de USC, y he aquí la explicación: en verdad, los cambios a uno no afectan al otro, pueden cambiar de manera independiente, PERO, para evitar potenciales problemas por confusiones que no se arreglan subiendo o bajando una palanca, opté por cambios sincronizados en pos de la estabilidad del modo de juego. Espero que para la tercera temporada el horario pueda extenderse aún más, pero con esto en mente, esta temporada debería ser aún más disfrutable que la primera. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: Todas las opiniones sobre la 1.10.1 van aquí (utilicen los hilos correctos): http://forum.worldof...alizacion-1101/ ¡Saludos e hilo cerrado!

Felipe6666Original: A la gran mayoría de todo lo planteado, ya te lo he respondido en oportunidades anteriores, pero nunca continuás con el debate, por lo que diría que no estás interesado en las respuestas, solo en utilizar el foro como tu muro de Facebook, así que hilo cerrado. ¡Saludos! P.D.: Si querés contestarle a un jugador, mandale un MP, no abras un hilo por un asunto entre privados.

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, Comandantes! En el día de hoy, los Carro d'Assalto P.88 y Progetto CC55 Mod. 54, dos tanques pesados italianos de nivel VII y VIII, respectivamente, de la nueva línea que anunciamos recientemente, ingresa al Supertest.  Si quieren más información sobre este y otros vehículos de esta nueva línea, no olviden mirar nuestro video dedicado:  Como siempre, recuerden que todos los valores están sujetos a cambios de acuerdo a los resultados de las pruebas. ¡Dejen sus opiniones y recuerden que participar del debate les da una chance de ganarse un estilo especial (más información aquí)! ¡Mucha suerte en el campo de batalla!

Einzelganger7:
Really? Hmm.. I had no idea because I rarely use tier 8 tanks (I mostly play tier 6, 7, and 9) since I unfortunately have no competent tier 8 premium, you know that tier is premium tanks galore... and when they buffed the Tiger II I played like 70 matches during those weeks but kept getting most times mid or bottom tier matches, at least it performs much better now so it wasn't that bad, heh. But today it really surprised me to get 8/10 matches only with tier 8 tanks, I will try to play tier 8 more often now that my Tiger II and Panther II feel decent.

Einzelganger7:
To keep the conspiracies, is it just me or the matchmaking is actually a lot better now? I decided to test the Panther II buffs and after 10 matches with it, I got 8 single tier matches, 1 as top tier vs tier 7, and one as mid tier vs tier 9 and 7. Do you guys think they actually improved it or maybe my RNG was over 9000? Let's start making hats of tinfoil! lol

Felipe6666Original: _Katyusha___ nos cae muy bien, y sigue teniendo razón: Italia nunca tuvo tanques propiamente pesados. De hecho, el video lo aclara bien, porque estos son diseños originales italianos que nunca pasaron de un plano dado que la nación estaba arruinada para producir material pesado  Por cierto, todo lo que involucre vehículos japoneses es muy divertido, sobre todo porque la mayoría de los archivos originales siguen en manos de la familia real, que amablemente nos dejaron copiarlos para nuestros juegos  ¡Saludos!

Einzelganger7: I never mind people playing SPG but it is indeed so BS that they spent the whole match shooting happily the enemy team without risks but they do not like it when others destroy them. If you enjoyed damaging enemies on the other side of the map it is completely fine, that is how arty works but at least take it like a champ when it's your turn to be destroyed and either try to fight until the end or do not suicide. Same for players of other classes who suicide, but especially for SPG ones since they are indeed the ones who do it more often.

Einzelganger7:
I see, then it is configured almost like my tier 7 Panther. But of course this VK 30.02 Daimler looks more dynamic so it will be interesting to see how it performs for me, thanks.

TragicLoss: WG Staff post <3

TragicLoss: Glad you like it!

TragicLoss: Hey Tankers! 
 We are changing the format of our Thursday streams. Currently, it is a mirror of the format of Working as Intended (our Q&A+platoon stream) and we'd like to differentiate them.
 The new format for LateNightTankShow will be community training room minigames (Yes, similar to Reddit Community Night). 
 Currently, there are no prizes, however that doesn't mean it will always be like that. We will be tracking winners across every stream.
 Below are two links, the first one is the rules of each minigame, what tank is required to play, and how we will run it. The second link is a sign up sheet.
 You DO NOT need to fill the sign-up sheet to participate, but it helps me cater to what kind of minigames people want to play. If you join the stream without filling up the sign up sheet it will be a first come first serve basis using our platoon queue Twitch Extension.

 Minigame Rules and Organization
 Sign-Up Sheet for THURSDAY THE 22ND @ 6PM CT:

 Sign up sheets will be posted the Thursday before the date you're signing up for.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys!  Get a spare pumpkin and gourd it out with a tank themed Jack O' Lantern or our WG logo for a chance to win some tank prize packages.  There is also a Costume contest awarding its own prize package. Both of these will be featured on our live stream HERE.  The deadline for submissions is 28Oct and more information on the prizes and how to enter can be found HERE.

Felipe6666Original: Otra actualización sobre las especificaciones del Rinoceronte: Cambiamos la cantidad de PV de 2150 a 2000 Cambiamos la dispersión al rotar la torreta y en movimiento de 0,22 a 0,24  ¡Saludos!

The_Chieftain: Some time ago, I did a series of articles in which I basically transcribed some overview documents by Army Ground Forces and Ordnance. I figure now’s a good time to back to the keyboard of whoever the poor sod was who had to type all this up, and give some publicity to his work. Today’s topic is that, again, of the relationship between the development guys over in Ordnance, and the users in Army Ground Forces. Over to you, anonymous, long-dead person whose name is sadly lost to time!By far the most satisfactory relationship, at least from the point of view of Army Ground Forces, was maintained between Army Ground Forces and the Research and Development Division, Army Service Forces. The Research and Development Division was in the anomalous position of satisfying the demands of Army Ground Forces and at the same time of controlling the research and development activities of the technical services. Almost without exception the personnel of the Division followed a policy of according Army GroundForces the fullest support in its development requests and recommendations.Relationships with the technical services were so varied and of such different nature throughout the war that generalizations would not be entirely accurate. They can best be understood from a study of the history of specific projects.One thing should be noted in connection with the technical services. Army Service Forces, usually on the recommendation of Army Ground Forces, established the priority of development projects. After the priority had been established, Army Ground Forces and Army Service Forces both could entreat and urge, but the actual speed of development was largely in the hands of the technical services. And it was only natural that projects initiated by the technical services were of more interest to them than those which were requested from outside sources.A good example of this type of reluctance on the part of a technical service is the case of the 2 ½ ton, 4x4 cargo truck T23. Studies had early indicated that an entirely new departure should be made in development of military trucks, particularly for use along the coast of China, and the T23 was the initial model to result from these studies. To all appearances, the Ordnance Department was not interested in this development. Certainly no pressure was brought on the manufacturer to produce the vehicle. Almost two years after the initiation of development, the truck was still undergoing tests and was not ready for combat use.2 1/2ton T23, by Chrysler, in 1946The general course of engineering tests and service tests were changed in two principle ways by the Development Division, they were to limit service tests to one board whenever possible and to telescope engineering and service tests on occasion when this would serve a useful purpose.Upon the inception of Army Ground Forces, the sections representing the combat arms were very reluctant to recognize the integration of development functions in the Developments Division and tended to perpetuate the branch emphasis which had existed in the offices of the chiefs. This attitude was particularly manifested in branch insistence that any equipment to be used by a certain arm be tested by its own board. This caused much duplication of effort and increased the possibility of conflicting actions. The problem was partly solved by early assignment of primary responsibility for certain kinds of equipment to one of the various branches, but the unnecessary duplication of tests and the consequent added work load and delays were not eliminated.Changes looking toward more effective integration were introduced at the insistence of Col. D. B. Sanger, who became Chief of the Development Division in February 1943. He, perhaps more than any other officer in the Requirements Section, was responsible for the gradual decline of branch consciousness and the growing realization of the completely integrated equipment program necessitated by modern war. His every policy was directed towards the eventual elimination of the arms branches in the Division. This he never achieved because of the express sanction given the arms branches by Circular 59.His first step to reduce the duplication previously insisted on by the arms branches was to restrict the formal test of equipment to one board when such test could adequately determine the suitability of the equipment for combat employment. If other arms had peculiar problems which required test solutions by their boards, additional tests would be conducted. In order to have all the boards informed of new developments, he established the practice of sending to them for informal study the equipment to be tested. The boards could submit informal comments on the equipment. This procedure saved considerable time and simplified the coordination problem in Army Ground Forces. All test reports were received by the branch having control of the board, but were turned over to the branch coordinating the development which in turn consolidated action on all reports, informal and formal.Engineering and service tests were combined whenever feasible, but this possibility was generally limited. The service boards of the Army Ground Forces were neither equipped with the elaborate technical testing and laboratory equipment required to perform engineering tests, nor provided with the necessary technicians. In this respect the Army Air Forces held a considerable advantage in expediting all development phases by virtue of its control over actual development and its facilities for performing both engineering and field service tests. Notable examples of telescoping both engineering and service tests in Army Ground Forces are the M4 floating Bridge, and in fact, all bridge testing during the war.Random image of a floating bridge.Neither engineering nor service tests can be dispensed with, but the testing process might have been greatly simplified under more completely integrated agencies.Tests by the service boards were conducted in the same manner as under the old organization.With the increasing importance of equipment testing during the war, Army Ground Forces resorted to extended field service tests under limited procurement. In case of complicated major items of equipment such as tanks, artillery weapons and bridges, limited procurement for extended tests was consistently used. No ASF board was competent to test bridges and related engineering equipment because of the traditional organization into boards strictly representing the arms. Tactical units were universally used in testing this equipment. As indicated earlier, extended field service tests served two purposes: They permitted the elimination of production “bugs”, and they submitted the equipment to a more exhaustive and rigorous type of field test than was possible with the limited number of troops available to a service board.As more of the Army Ground Forces became employed in overseas theaters, it became more difficult to find troops available for extended field tests in this country. Tactical units were needed for this type of test, and in the last year of the war such units in a sufficiently advanced state of training were simply not available. The problem became particularly acute in testing the division-army bridge.Introduction of New Equipment – New Developments Division.Two steps were taken to meet the difficult testing problem outlined above. As troops became less available in this country, Army Ground Forces increasingly sent limited-procurement equipment over-seas for final evaluation, at the same time maintaining its policy of insuring (sic) combat suitability before such shipment.Army Ground Forces would have much preferred to conduct all tests under its supervision, but it took due cognizance of the realities of the situation. The theater commander was first consulted, and if he did not request shipment of the items for test or limited employment to determine requirements and suitability, the shipment could not be made. Thus the force of circumstances turned in favor of those who held to the doctrine of complete theater freedom in the selection of equipment.The War Department also instituted a system of sending small groups of specialists and technicians, called introductory teams, to the theaters to introduce new equipment. In this way the it could be assured that the equipment would be properly used, that those responsible for its development would have an opportunity to observe its functioning in combat, and that the theater would have a chance to see the equipment under the most favorable conditions. In the latter months of the war these teams were used with great effect to introduce such material as the VT fuze, recoilless weapons, new flame throwers, new radar, and new mortar locators.Control of introductory teams was vested in the War Department New Developments Division, which had been established as part of the War Department Special Staff in October 1943 to initiate, coordinate and direct research, development, standardization, and military application of new techniques, weapons, and equipment, with particular reference to introducing new equipment. The Division was not intended to supplant existing organisations, but to complement them by direct support or by necessary coordination with emphasis on expediting programs regarded as impotant. The first Chief of the Division, Maj. Gen. S. G. Henry, established the group on a functional basis, dividing the equipment of the respective services among the members of the Division. This organization was continued by his successor, Brig. Gen. W. A. Borden, who, until promotion to General grade, had been an Ordnance officer.The relationship of the Army Ground Forces to the New Developments Division suffered by contrast with that of Army Service Forces. There was a belief on the part of some AGF officers that the functions of the New Developments Division should have been exercised by War Department G-4. It was believed by Colonel Sanger that confusion and delay were caused by interference in the proper sphere of the several subordinate agencies. For example, the New Developments Division, under its broad powers, could and did press for development of projects which subordinate agencies had already investigated and for which no requirement was found. An example is the ¾ ton landing vehicle, cargo, which New Developments Division sought to inject after both Army Ground Forces and the Transportation Corps had determined that no requirement existed. Part of the difficulty was due to the previous background and the prepossessions of the officers concerned.--------------------As you can imagine, there will be a Part 7. And probably a Part 8. Who ever said that developing all the equipment required for an Army in a global war would be simple?

TeriyakiTanker: Of course no one has proven it, the difference the anti-riggers have indeed done statistical analysis that supports the idea that it isn't rigged...... the other side has not even done that, well except for Umkhulu and his numbers showed the same thing as the anti-rigging folks.  So you really are incorrect in your assessment of the situation. If you really want I am sure one of the hundreds of threads on the subject would be easy enough to find.  Unfortunately after years of stupid behavior in these threads they pretty much all devolve into name calling and lunacy from both sides.  In a sad way it is really interesting to look at NeatoMans old posts and see him actually trying to help people understand and over the years you can see him becoming more and more frustrated and becoming much less pleasant in his postings.   Bottom line is you just joined a long line of people adding nothing to the conversation, congrats on that.  Ohhhh and for the record I readily admit that WG is perfectly capable of rigging the game in anyway they want but it doesn't seem particularly likely.

TeriyakiTanker: I think you are confusing long and stupid to be honest.

Einzelganger7: I bought it during the time they changed the tech trees since it got auto researched because I went for the Leo PT A through the light tank branch but I haven't used it. What equipment do you have on it?

TeriyakiTanker: Ummm do you expect people to know what you are talking about by reading this? Have you contacted support? Do you realize its Sunday and they aren't going to get back to you today? If customer service is important to you than you should give them a reasonable amount of time to help you out.
