What’s Coming in 2019?

vuque: Hello guys,   We have asked internally about some clarification about how the ammo changes will affect well-armored vehicles/super heavies. This is the answer:   At the moment, the effectiveness of well-armored vehicles, such as the E-100, IS-4 (we want to even improve them at the request of the players), Maus and Type 5 Heavy (we are also nerfing it) are at the same level as other heavy tanks. They don't have an outstanding performance. Yes, these vehicles have a good performance on blocked damage, but that is how they were designed. This change will improve the survivability, but not the chance to penetrate these vehicles (armor penetration of special shells will remain the same). After the changes happened vehicles will receive less damage from special shells, by 25-30%, but this is only a part (not a major part) of the total damage they take and the total damage taken will decrease slightly. The reduction will be situational when, in a specific situation, these tanks will inflict precisely the damage from special shells with increased penetration.   As a result: yes, these vehicles will receive not direct, but indirect improvements. But the volume of this improvement will be situational and not so significant that the vehicles go beyond the limits of balance. That being said, based on the results of the tests, we will closely observe such vehicles and if the changes have a stronger impact than we initially planed, then we will react to this.
