DomoSapien:   Man, have I ever told you that I really appreciate the generally whimsical nonsense posts you make from time to time? 

Always gets a good chuckle out of me, even when I'm being trolled ever-so-softly

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockies! The holidays are here with the return of the Advent Calendar. Starting now (30Nov) players get a special mission.A screen should appear when logging in for the first time after the patch to accept the special combat mission.  Then on 1Dec the fun really starts to snowball, with a different vehicle and battle mission everyday throughout the winter sale.  This season there is an extra surprise, you can purchase these offers with in game gold!  Be sure to open your calendar daily to find out what great offers and missions are hidden behind each door!  Click HERE for a link to the article.  

DomoSapien: I understand where you're coming from however the issue with making the missions only visible during tournaments is that this would require us to deactivate them when the tournaments aren't active. Any missions requiring cumulative progress such as damage dealt etc. will be reset every time. To my knowledge that's the only way to make them completely invisible with the current tools at our disposal.

Jambijon: The title was incorrect and was fixed yesterday evening.  Its a 3v3 with 1 reserve.

BigDaddyLaxative: The title was incorrect and was fixed yesterday evening.  Its a 3v3 with 1 reserve.

Hambijon: The title was incorrect and was fixed yesterday evening.  Its a 3v3 with 1 reserve.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockies! Alas warriors of metal breathing beasts!  There is a new stead to quest upon and claim in the World of Tanks Winter Challenge!  The Event runs from now (30Nov) until 10Dec. For more information on the Tank and the Challenge click on the picture above! Every stage you complete will grant 10% off the purchase price.  Good luck to all who embark on this legendary journey!

MA77:    ​Fala Black! Tudo certo?

A Conta Premium começa a valer a partir do momento em que creditamos ela aos jogadores. Ela foi adicionada para os participantes e vencedores no dia 26/11. 

TeriyakiTanker:   Havent noticed anything unusual myself but upload some replays or screen captures of your personal score and someone could tell you what is going on.  Best guess, if is actually happening, is that you are shooting lower tiered vehicles more often.

KRZYBooP:   Tanks are constantly being Balanced and adjusted. The more you add to the game the more intricate and delicate balancing gets. Most recently they rebalanced Pref MM tanks, almost all of them in one patch, and I can assure you that there will be even more balance changes too come. There is over 500 tanks in the game with many things to consider. The IS-3A is getting a new mechanic added that will certainly change how the tank will be played and look forward to the new challenges.   

KRZYBooP:   Please be sure to post any feedback like this to the feedback thread from Domo  

KRZYBooP:   Yes!  

KRZYBooP:   I am hoping for improvements to CPU usage but don't have any additional information other than what the website states. 

DomoSapien: Hey there! Noticed the thread and wanted to chime in with the mostly likely explanation for your missing equipment.

This question would come up quite frequently during my days in CS and I can imagine it's still a frequent-flier in the tech support department around patch days.

Aslain's modpack includes the auto-equip mod - this mod Artificially "duplicates" your pieces of non-complex equipment so that you can mount them on any theoretical amount of tanks. How's this possible? Well, the mod will "hotswap" your equipment for you and mount it onto your other tanks automatically by grabbing that same piece of equipment off a tank that's not in battle, and mounting it on the tank that you're queue'ing up in.   The reason it randomly stops working after patch days? Well, the mod developers don't always update their modpacks immediately. So it may be necessary to wait a few days at times before Aslain rolls out an update for his modpack to bring all the mods within the modpack back to their functioning state.

DomoSapien:   Indeed, as long as the 400m isn't just some hard-coded threshold that can't be changed, that would be a pretty sweet alternative.

KRZYBooP:   I got distracted this morning. 

DomoSapien: I like that suggestion, not sure if we have the capability to make a distance restriction part of the mission but it's certainly worth a shot! Gonna pass it on to the Event guys!

Felipe6666Original:   Wargaming no es responsable por lo que los capitanes hagan en sus equipos, por eso los jugadores son los que aceptan formar parte de uno o no. Dicho de otra manera, no podemos interferir en los equipos diciéndole a los capitanes qué deben hacer con su equipo.   Los reservistas son necesarios, sobre todo en Latinoamérica, por la frecuencia de las desconexiones o problemas de otra índole que impiden que algún jugador llegue a tiempo o pueda presentarse siquiera para jugar (son opcionales, no obligatorios).   Los premios se piensan para el formato que se especifica (7 vs. 7, 3 vs. 3, etc.), no para el formato incluyendo las reservas. Por último, el pago de los premios va a seguir siendo proporcional a la participación de los jugadores en el torneo para evitar que quienes nada hagan reciban cosas igual. No hay una forma fehaciente de comprobar que los jugadores no participaron por negativa u otro motivo (es la palabra de uno contra la del otro).   ¡Saludos!   P.D.: Revisé mi casilla y solo me mandaste dos MP, uno sobre una falla en el servidor y otro sobre una falla en un torneo, no encontré nada sobre esta cuestión.

Felipe6666Original: ¡Buenas!   ¡Ahora sí! ¡Acá van los primeros torneos del último mes del año!   2 vs. 2: Dúos de sábado: https://worldoftanks.com/es-ar/tournaments/1000000836/ - Nivel VII 3 vs. 3: Pelotones de domingo - División Maestría: https://worldoftanks.com/es-ar/tournaments/1000000837/ - Nivel VIII 3 vs. 3: Pelotones de domingo - División Desafío: https://worldoftanks.com/es-ar/tournaments/1000000838/ - Nivel VIII   Los torneos de este mes siguen acompañados de un añadido especial: ¡misiones! Sin embargo, serán publicadas más tarde. La premisa seguirá siendo la misma, aunque puedo adelantarles que modificamos los parámetros de algunos objetivos.   Recuerden leer las reglas generales de los torneos para evitar confusiones y poder reportar problemas (en caso de haberlos). Iré publicando los torneos disponibles para cada semana de diciembre conforme vayan saliendo (como siempre, y solo luego de localizarlos y verificar que esté todo bien).   ¡Buena suerte y saludos!   EDIT: Las misiones de este mes están aquí.

Felipe6666Original: Como indicaron, es automático. Si cumplís con la cantidad de años para recibir el T-50-2, entonces, al ingresar al juego, se te acreditará automáticamente con el resto de las recompensas. De otra forma, recibirás solo las correspondientes a tu cantidad de años jugados.   ¡Saludos!

1984BigBrother: It's a 3v3 the title is wrong and it is being corrected now. Thanks for the heads up!!

Felipe6666Original: Exacto, no hay una fecha para implementar esta caracterísitca (asumiendo que se implementará. Sigue en fase de pruebas por ahora.   ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: Recuerden que los bots están pensados para jugadores novatos, así que no esperan maravillas, pero concuerdo en que se ncesitan hacer mejoras incluso teniendo en cuenta ese punto (puntualmente en los cazatanques, porque yo también noté lo mismo que IIPravdaII).   Y sobre la división entre jugadores realmente nuevos y los buenos que solo abusan de ellos, es una idea que siempre me agradó, pero que veo complicado de implementar. Bah, en verdad creo que hay limitaciones para distinguir jugadores "nuevos" (rerolls) de los verdaderamente nuevos para ponerlos en partidas diferentes. Eso sin contar que, como se menciona, hay jugadores con miles de batallas que por la razón que sea se asemejan más a jugadores que recién comienzan en el juego que a jugadores que ya lo jugaron bastante. Además, está la cuestión de quienes vuelven al nivel I para empezar una nueva rama (sí, podemos arguementar que los "experimentados" liberan con libre hasta el nivel V-VII, pero yo particularmente sigo jugando desde el principio). Así que veo difícil hacer un algoritmo que contemple todo eso.   ¡Saludos!   P.D.: Igual todo eso da para una disusión aparte, centrémosnos en los bots

Felipe6666Original:   Sí, por eso los acabo de localizar siguiendo lo que dice la configuración interna del torneo (gracias por señarlarlo igual), pero antes de anunciarlos oficialmente quiero confirmar con el resto que es el texto el que está mal y no la configuración en sí.  

Felipe6666Original:   Tiene que ser un tema de optimización de ese mapa en particular entonces. Voy a reportarlo, pero las soluciones de ese tipo dependen del equipo de desarrollo.   ¡Saludos!

The_Chieftain:   It would help if they made good cars. I note that GM is keeping the good sellers, such as the Camaro, the  CTS and ATS, all of which are excellent. I mean, look at the list of the six cars they're killing off. Is anyone going to miss the XTS or LaCrosse, really? And when you look at the really high end, Who,  really, was going to buy the CT6 over the equivalent German vehicles? (And the answer is only under 10,000 folks a year. Indeed, of the six, only two sold more than 20,000, and only one over 50,000, the Cruze, which also has the lowest profit margin). When I turned in my Passat Diesel earlier this year, I really wanted to replace it with a Caddy. The wife wouldn't let me get the CTS, unfortunately, so I took a look at the  CT6 (And the Continental). Even if I could afford a new one (Which I couldn't, after a quick glance), look at the German competitors in the same price range. If I were spending that dollar value, it would probably go to Audi. We ended up getting a used 5-series.  

Felipe6666Original:   No te ignoré, lo vi recién hoy (e iba a contestarte en el otro thread, pero ni modo, contesto aquí ):   En verdad, eso no está determinado todavía. Sí, tendrán cargador, pero no puedo confirmar eso para todos los vehículos de la rama. En realidad, no deberían ser trackeados tan fácilmente porque, si bien la destrucción individual de cada rueda afecta al desempeño, el vehículo no se detiene. Además, tienen una velocidad superior al de sus amigos con orugas, lo que debería compensar el riesgo a la exposición al fuego. El camuflaje debería ser muy bueno en términos generales.   ¡Saludos!

KRZYBooP:   Metal in the snow...... Obviously........

I am kidding. If you have a replay please submit it in a ticket to our support team. 

DomoSapien: Congrats on the consolation prize of that LT-15 completion 9k spotting is no small feat!
Best of luck with the rest of the campaign.

DomoSapien:   Unfortunately the sandbox server has been down for quite some time. I believe the last iteration of sandbox was to run the Battle Royale mode for April Fools'

We are starting off testing in a closed environment because they are introducing a lot of new mechanics and we want to make sure we get a lot of closed testing in before releasing them into the wild. Not even us WG employees have gotten a chance to play the wheeled vehicles yet

As soon as I get a chance I will be happy to share my impressions with anyone who is curious.

DomoSapien: Thank you for the feedback! I'm happy to add it to my next report.

That said, there is a bit of silver lining in the information I've received regarding this event: Namely, I've seen language indicating that we are considering extending this event for future years.   But it sounds like you're aware of that. However, with that in mind: If the event is extended as a recurring seasonal reward, I suspect that considerations will be made to allow players that missed out on, say, the T-50-2 this year a chance at earning the vehicle next year.

At least, I certainly hope this is how it will function, and I'm sure many of my fellow players feel the same way. I will definitely indicate in my report that this sentiment exists.

Jambijon: The tournaments aren't deleted.  After they complete they are removed from the "featured" list or "active" list on the tournament portal.  You will need to use the search function on the tournaments page to find older tournaments.

DomoSapien: You guys are awesome.

Glad you're looking forward to taking the T-50-2 out for a spin! Played a few games in mine today, rocking this beautiful 0.7.0 skin brought back some great memories. 

Even ended up at the top of the scoreboard in a tier VIII battle on my first match

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, tanquistas!   Siguiendo la línea del Desafío Italiano y del Desafío Británico, llega el Desafío Festivo, un evento que tiene como objetivo nuestra más reciente adición al juego: el cazatanques soviético premium SU-130PM.

Pilsen
Ghost Town I have noticed that there is not a list that says all of the maps available for each tier, we are working on this and will hopefully be able to post it before the end of the week! GLHF!

BigDaddyLaxative: Hello Tankers!   Below is the preliminary schedule we have planned out for the month of December.  As always, all of this is subject to change.   Some important bits: We have increased the time between rounds and stages to 5 minutes to avoid any timeout issues (no invite bug) that we have experienced in the past.  Minutes between battles will remain 2 minutes. Like Gold, Credits and Free XP will be paid out in the same fashion where the number of battles contributed to your team will determine your split of the prize. After the 22nd of December, we won't be running anymore tournaments due to the holidays.  We'll pick back up with the start of January 2019!

We've changed all of the mission conditions from "Once per account" to "Once per day."  This way, you are not required to complete every single one to earn enough tokens for the Garage Slot. Blocked Damage seemed to be least completed mission, so we've drastically lowered the threshold. Again, these are very simple missions as we don't want to create some that would warrant a different play style or how a player approaches the tournaments.  Also, the prizes aren't crazy good either, but its nice to get a little something if you didn't manage to qualify for a reward in a tournament.    Missions: Mission:  Tournament Master Restrictions: Once per account Conditions: Collect 8 Tournament Mission Tokens  Slot x1   Mission:  Destroy Enemy Tanks I Restrictions: Tournament battles only Must be in Tier I-VII Once per day Conditions: Destroy 6 enemy tanks in any amount of battles.

Hambijon: Hello Tankers!   Below is the preliminary schedule we have planned out for the month of December.  As always, all of this is subject to change.   Some important bits: We have increased the time between rounds and stages to 5 minutes to avoid any timeout issues (no invite bug) that we have experienced in the past.  Minutes between battles will remain 2 minutes. Like Gold, Credits and Free XP will be paid out in the same fashion where the number of battles contributed to your team will determine your split of the prize. After the 22nd of December, we won't be running anymore tournaments due to the holidays.  We'll pick back up with the start of January 2019! Registration will now close 1 hour prior to the tournament start to provide enough time for brackets to be published.   12/1 to 12/6:   12/1 - 2v2: Saturday Duos!   SCHEDULE Registration Start: 11/28 at 18:00 PT | 20:00 CT | 21:00 ET  Registration End:  12/1 at 13:00 PT | 15:00 CT | 16:00 ET Tournament Start: 12/1 at 14:00 PT | 16:00 CT | 17:00 ET   RULES 2/14 Format  2v2 Tier VII only 8 teams per group Cap reduced to 120 seconds!
