KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys! This here is a general announcement for the transition of the common test from the Launcher to the WGC. To make things more neat and tidy on your desktop, we have integrated the Common Test in the WGC. Now all you have to do is click a few buttons in your WGC and bam you are in the CT galavanting around in the future tanks of your dreams. For more information on these changes please click HERE There is no ETA on when this change will go live, and is just a friendly heads up.

The_Chieftain: Hmm. I take the point of it being more correct, but in common use at least I'm in good company. From Wiki: "In military science nomenclature, a quick reaction force (QRF), also known as a quick reactionary force, is an armed military unit capable of rapidly responding to developing situations..."   English is indeed not my first language, it's more a form of Hiberno-American.   ​I shared your question about ranges, but that was fairly quickly put to rest firstly by the use of the distance tool in Google Maps to do some tests, and then by simply looking at the scale in the bottom left corner of the period map and making an estimate. If the units were indeed more or less in their reported grids, and the enemy at the grids reported by the units, which seem to pass the 'sanity' test of them being on roads etc, then the extreme ranges are correct. ​It may also be why there was such prodigious use of ammunition, HE to spot the fall of shot as well as have effects after AP had "petered out" a bit. From the American perspective, I can understand it. If you have the ammo, and supply seems to have been one thing the Americans were not short on, why not fire at targets, even if it takes a few rounds to score the first hit? Even if you just force them back without killing them, you've done your job.

DomoSapien: Quick update, folks: there has been a schedule change for this Friday, 5/17:

Something came up and SuperNova_o7 will unfortunately be unable to stream. The wonderful & generally hilarious Trobsmonkey has graciously volunteered to pick up his slot.   He will be streaming at approximately 21:00 CST on Friday, 5/17.

I've edited my post and put in a request with the content team to get the article on the news portal updated as well; those changes should be live on the news portal tomorrow, and I've already updated the schedule on the first page of this thread.

We will also be processing the mass-invoice for 3 Additional tokens on a tentative date of May 20th, so those extra tokens should be available on your accounts by May 21st.    Assuming you've gathered all the codes this month, your "31 codes" mission should become available on May 28th.

KRZYBooP: Me at the end of a match in Arty where my team didn't do so great.  

CabbageMechanic: It is, we're expecting it to begin in June.  More details to be announced soon.

Felipe6666Original: ¡Buenas a todos!   Primero lo primero... ¿Y los anuncios de abril?   Tank Rewards   Lo que todos esperan desde que se fue está más cerca que nunca. ¿Cuándo llega? ¡En junio! ¿En qué fecha específicamente? Sin precisiones por ahora. ¿Tendrá cambios? En la interfaz como mínimo, habrá más detalles sobre otros aspectos luego. ¡Les dije que iba a regresar!   Discord   Discord vuelve a estar en el centro de la escena, porque si bien hace ya dos meses comencé a darle más visibilidad, dotarlo de herramientas, etc., ahora su uso se convirtió en una iniciativa global, lo que implica que cada región tiene el suyo. Prueba de ello es el artículo oficial que lo anuncia y el banner en el carrousel que lo promociona constantemente. Por tanto, pueden encontrarme allí también, que es donde los Voluntarios de la Comunidad más visibilidad tienen en términos de moderación.   Búsqueda del Tesoro   No hace falta decir mucho al respecto porque ya vi a casi todos pasándose los códigos del evento, yendo de un Contribuidor de la Comunidad al otro para obtenerlos, comunicando y comentando la noticia, etc., así que lo único que voy a agregar a todo eso es que con la versión de mayo no solo buscamos hacer las cosas más sencillas, sino también buscar un punto en el que podamos sistematizar el evento de manera tal que no sea algo estático sin sorpresas, pero que sea mucho más amigable en general.   Otros anuncios:   Esto es algo que suelo decir en los comentarios de Facebook, pero es bueno dejarlo en claro aquí también: los rebalances a los tanques pesados como el E 100 y el IS-4 serán una realidad, pero solo una vez que concluyamos con los medianos. El Programa de Contribuidores de la Comunidad recibirá algunos cambios en sus incentivos (nada demasiado crítico) que serán comunicados luego en su hilo; el Programa de Voluntarios de la Comunidad está dando mejores resultados de lo que pensé. El doblaje total de los videos (de los nuevos, no de los que ya están allí de nuestro canal de YouTube sigue encontrando dificultades en el camino, pero eso no quiere decir que vayamos a darnos por vencidos. Entretanto, mantendremos nuestra política de doblar los videos "más imporantes" solamente y de agregar subtítulos al resto (con su respectivo soporte en español, claro). Los concursos de arte tienen cada vez más participantes, así que sigue sin haber motivos para detener su marcha (y el sistema de votación por jurado da buenos resultados también). Lo mismo aplica a los concursos de la comunidad, a pesar de que en ese caso los resultados son mucho más variados. Me alegra poder decir que los torneos, a pesar de que no ofrecen mucha variedad (soy el primero en admitirlo), siguen sin presentar errores por ahora; sin embargo, pueden esperar cambios de diferente índole en los próximos meses (muy pronto para decir más). Uno de los proyectos especiales en los que estoy trabajando vería la luz tentativamente en junio de este año; demasiado pronto para revelar más cosas. La sistematización de las misiones por fechas patrias es ya una realidad (aunque con limitaciones), pero falta pulir más el concepto y lo que incluye. Pueden dejar sus opiniones al respecto aquí. La calidad general de la traducción de ciertos artículos y anuncios del portal ha mejorado, pero el entramado para hacer que esa mejora impacte en todo (incluido el juego) es algo que llevará más tiempo (y mucho).   ¡Saludos!

Hambijon: Hey Tankers, Seems some of our allies camo is a little too good.  We are aware that some of your teammates will show as just a shadow or invisible with the team marker over them. Our devs are aware of this issue and currently working on a fix.  Once we get some more information, we'll update this thread as soon as we are able. Thanks for your patience and GLHF!

Hambijon: Yes we are aware as well and the issues is currently being working on by the devs.

Felipe6666Original: Ya reporté el problema para ver qué puede hacerse, pero pueden contactar a Soporte individualmente para que les activen la bonificación por sistema de manera individual (mi reporte tiene que ver con hacerlo masivo).   ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original:   Solo para que quede claro, esto iría a participar de Composición dado que los modelos de este tipo en particular no pueden participar en Modelismo (ver el FAQ).   ¡Saludos!

KRZYBooP: Do you happen to have a replay?   If so could you please submit it to our support team so they can investigate?

KRZYBooP: Howdy!   If you are still having issues please submit a ticket to our support for additional assistance. 

Hambijon: Attention! The IS-3A just hit the Premium Shop just in time for Frontline!  No need to explain what this tank is capable of since its garnered a pretty big reputation after its rework. Slight changes of note.  The War Chest bundle with this will come with 30 Days of Premium Time along with the other goodies. For the full list of details, click on the following link: The IS-3A is Here! GLHF!

TeriyakiTanker:   I guess you have a point aside from the part where his is correct...… try some math some time.

MA77:   Fala, Brazil_007!

As mudanças no jogo sempre são anunciadas com certa antecedência e em várias de nossas redes sociais, grupos e afins. Todas as alterações são públicas e sempre pedimos a opinião dos jogadores com relação a estas. As mudanças do Type 5 Heavy foram anunciadas pelo menos trinta dias antes de sua implementação nos servidores.

O primeiro anúncio ocorreu no dia 29 de Março. O segundo, no dia 11 de Abril e o veículo já estava disponível para testes e feedback no Teste Comum da Atualização 1.5. O terceiro, aconteceu com a chegada da Atualização 1.5.

Espero que tenha esclarecido como que as mudanças ocorrem, assim sendo, os tanques leves com rodas poderão ser revisados num futuro breve. 

MA77: Oi, esderaX.

Abra um ticket em nosso Suporte e informe o ocorrido.... eles irão lhe ajudar. 

DomoSapien: Sorry for the slowpoke.jpg response on this but if the goods are unused they can be removed from your account by Customer Support.
If you already have an LTP in your garage and purchase the bundle under the impression that you will be getting Gold Compensation for the LTP, but receive Silver (or nothing? I don't recall the specifics of how compensation works for the "Item + bonus tank" bundles off the top of my head and am writing this from my phone so looking it up isn't really handy for me right now) you can always request a refund as long as the payment method used was refundable (credit card, paypal, etc.)

Customer Support just needs to remove the goods from your account, so it might be necessary to buy a few days of premium if you don't have enough left for the refund, that way they can withdraw the full amount of Premium Time associated with the original purchase.

KRZYBooP:   What everyone above said!   If you would a complete movie marathon of explained mechanics and videos that are not easy to find Check out this FORUM.   To check Weakspots and angling on Tanks check out Tanks.gg   Good luck on the battlefield, and if you are interested join our Discord    

KRZYBooP: No Code this time.   Be Merry!
 

DomoSapien:   Data from recent surveys we've run shows that most players who consume stream content do so via a multi-monitor setup. You may not like to do so, but generally players who watch World of Tanks streams like to have the streams running while they play the game as well. Many players will jump on WOT during our WG streams so they can count in with us and try to get matched in the same battle.

Releasing the code prior to the stream would theoretically accomplish the opposite - why would I visit the stream if I already have the code? I understand that this isn't directly in line with how you'd like the event to be run but you also aren't familiar with the limitations of our backend systems. There is a method to our madness and this current Scavenger Hunt format is arguably the best we've had so far.

Regardless of codes being reposted, I am actually keeping an eye on the channel metrics of all participating contributors - I see organic spikes in new followers/subs for each contributor corresponding with the drop dates. You may disagree with how I'm running this event but you don't have access to all the data that I've gathered from the event and presented to my colleagues and supervisors showing that not only do Contributors benefit from the event/format, players who participate tend to play more sessions, longer sessions, and earn + spend more Credits/XP than non-participating players.

I would also like to remind you that there is absolutely no reason to stoop to personal insults simply because someone disagrees with you about how an in-game event is run. Please keep the discussion civil.
 

DomoSapien:
I've heard a few reports of the May 8th code not working the whole time. If you had trouble with the May 8th code can you please submit a ticket to Customer Support and PM me your ticket ID via the Forums or Discord so I can investigate?
I double-checked the code and verified that the activity period wasn't set incorrectly, so I'd like to take a deeper dive into some account logs and see if I can get to the bottom of this.

As for the Mastery codes not working, thank you for the heads up! Just spoke with our team about it and they're investigating to see what's going on. I will post a thread to News & Information once I've got more details.

Hambijon: Attention Tankers! Prior to Update 1.3, the IS-3A was more of a "collectors" item rather than a solid Tier VIII Heavy Tank.  After the rework, specifically with the auto-reloading feature (reverse of the Italian auto-loaders) the IS-3A became a scary adversary to be in close quarters with. For all the juicy details, check out the article linked below: Vehicle Profile: IS-3A Also, yes we are totally selling this by the way (without the crates).  Offer for the pre-sale goes live on May 11th to the 13th and then the general sale will be live May 13th to 31st. GLHF

CabbageMechanic: Hey Tankers,

We have a compensation plan submitted, just waiting on final approvals, should have announcement ready tomorrow.

See you on the battlefield!

KRZYBooP:   I had no Idea the suspension worked like that for STB. More than likely it will work exactly like the swedish Mediums. 

Hambijon: Try launching it from the .exe file to see if it works.  Default should be something like C:\Games\World_of_Tanks_NA and the click the WorldOfTanks application.

KRZYBooP:   We can't have nice things since some players like to point out where their team mates are hiding in the Saltiness of their death.

KRZYBooP:   YAAASSSSSSSSSSS

KRZYBooP:

KRZYBooP: Try running the game in safe mode with reset graphics.   If you are still having problems submit a ticket to our support team HERE
