Felipe6666Original:   Hay vehículos que están limitados por lineamientos internos. El caso más famoso es el del Type 59, pero hay algunos otros. Respecto de los "raros" o poco frecuentes en las ofertas, no suele haber una limitación de ningún tipo. Queda a nuestro criterio usarlos para este tipo de concursos, pero su acreditación debe estar bien justificada  Es decir, no podemos premiar jugadores con un BT-SV o un Pz. II J solo por adjuntar capturas para un concurso o responder preguntas en otro  

Felipe6666Original:   La idea de este concurso en particular es que se hable solo de aquellos que son famosos por su blindaje. Ahora, si querés hablar comparativamente o mencionarlos, no hay ningún tipo de problema, pero la discusión tiene que centrarse en los "reboteros". Igual veo que resolviste la duda antes de que conteste   ¡Saludos!   P.D.: No olvides publicar la guía aquí también como se indica en las reglas

DomoSapien: Hi folks,    I understand there was an issue with the Gold Cup scheduling, the tournament was set up by some folks in HQ and was supposed to be fully automated, but something seems to have prevented the playoff stage from triggering.   Knowing that some players made prior engagements for their Sunday afternoon, and weren't expecting a reschedule, we will be postponing the playoff stage of the Gold Cup and the Grand Final to next week.    Playoffs will be July 28th 12:00PT 14:00 CT 15:00 ET and Grand Final will be July 29th at the same time.   Really sorry for all the trouble, thank you all for your patience.

TeriyakiTanker: Glad I went with EUWINS.  Figured it wouldn't be close based off the practice MAHOU gets and having to play off the EU server.

DomoSapien: Tournament schedule has been updated through the beginning of August, please check Jambi's original post!

Jambijon: Okay, you're all good!

BigDaddyLaxative: Okay, you're all good!

Hambijon: Okay, you're all good!

DomoSapien:   Tier V tanks. Total of 15. I'll get the typo fixed.  

DomoSapien:   It's also worth mentioning that Dance210 was part of an actual, dedicated eSports department. We no longer have such a department, which means the entirety of tournaments are being run by the two of us. We're doing our best to find a balance between tournaments and our other regular work functions, but we are definitely improving.

Felipe6666Original: Cierro el thread antes de que se empiece a poner tóxico.   ¡Saludos!

Jambijon: Apologies, it seems the tournament system is still getting overloaded towards the end of registration.  We are still trying to update it to avoid issues like these.  For now, I can manually confirm your team if you like?

Felipe6666Original:   My bad. Sí, concuerdo con eso (y con lo del oro también). Creo que dar la posibilidad en créditos o incluso imponer solo esa opción (como se hizo con los consumibles y munición premium) sería una buena solución.

Felipe6666Original:   ¿No se crearía entonces una distorsión? Es decir, si el equipamiento mejorado pudiese ser adquirido con dinero real, entonces crearía una brecha entre quienes pueden invertir en el juego y quienes no. Por ahora, los bonos solo pueden ser obtenidos como recompensa por determinados eventos o acciones.

Felipe6666Original: ¡Buenas, Comandantes!   Estamos complacidos de anunciar nuestra nueva versión la tienda del juego. Si bien no incorporamos nuevo contenido, sí la ordenamos y mejoramos su presentación para que sea mucho más fácil para ustedes encontrar lo que buscan.   ¿Qué les parece? ¿Mejorarían alguna otra cosa?   ¡Saludos!

DomoSapien:
Sadly we were not able to get a Spanish-speaking caster for the match.

DomoSapien:
The instructions are on the portal article, but basically it is a bonus code like during the Mysteryball World Cup event. 

Redeem the code NAWINS if you think MAHOU is going to win.
Redeem the code EUWINS if you think FAME is going to win.

The_Chieftain: I met Bruce very quickly at TankFest, but was unaware of his choices. They filmed at least two Top 5 episodes over the weekend, a German chap got one as well.   That Lost temple show reminds me a bit of the old Crystal Maze game show on Channel 4.   Anyone been tracking the USCPSC Twitter? Apparently they decided that since nobody cares about the organization anyway, they’d have some fun...

Gnomon:   ​Thanks for working on this! Giving it a Staff Post Box bump too. 

Gnomon:   ​

Felipe6666Original: ¡Buenas, Comandantes!   Continuamos trabajando en el nuevo mapa para Grandes Batallas. En caso de que no lo recuerden, se trata de un escenario soviético en el que habrá combates en cada rincón. Los jugadores contarán con varias oportunidades para desplazarse relativamentes protegidos en varias zonas y podrán extender sus ataques luego de ganar un posición clave.   Imágenes   ¿Qué cambió en esta nueva versión?   Cambiamos una parte de la ciudad teniendo en cuenta sus opiniones. Varios jugadores consideraban que era muy compleja dado que no estaban seguros de cuáles caminos seguir y en cuáles podían esperar que el enemigo apareciera. Ahora se pueden desplazar en los límites del mapa. Los jugadores querían poder hacer uso de estas zonas y, honestamente, creímos que era un punto válido. Rediseñamos las zonas al este y oeste del mapa. Las estadísticas dejaron en claro que eran utilizadas mayormente por los tanques medianos y queremos que todos los tipos de vehículos puedan sacar provechos de estas áreas. Las bases cuentan ahora con más cobertura. Las estadísticas de la versión anterior demostraron que capturar las bases era bastante problemático porque las bases eran muy abiertas.
  Como siempre, los resultados de las pruebas definirá cuáles serán nuestros siguientes cambios.   ¡Mucha suerte en el campo de batalla y estén al tanto de las noticias!

MA77:   O servidor LATAM abre às 11:00 e fecha às 02:00 durante a semana e 03:00 no finais de semana.

Felipe6666Original: 1- En el artículo que anuncia la Tienda 2.0, el botón para su descarga y prueba dice claramente "DESCARGAR PRUEBA COMÚN".

2- Creo que había una manera mucho menos tóxica para "informar" a los jugadores de eso.   3- Thread cerrado por obvias razones.   ¡Saludos!

Gnomon: Today, we’re rolling out the 4th iteration of this map. In case you’ve missed the previous announcements/posts, it was conceived as an open map in a Soviet setting, with fighting possibilities spread over every nook-and-cranny. Players were given opportunities for relatively safe movement between different zones and extending their attack after winning a fight in a key location. What has changed in the 4th version: A part of the city has been re-worked. Judging by the feedback we received, it was too complex. Players had navigational problems and weren’t sure from which direction they should expect an enemy to appear. Due to this, we thought the city needed a re-work.  The edges of the map have now been made traversable. The players wanted to make use of these zones, and we completely agreed with the idea. The parts in the east and in the west have been redesigned. The map stats showed that they were mostly utilized by medium tanks. But, we are going for more tank class diversity in these areas. There’s now more cover for the bases. The stats from the previous test showed us that capping was difficult because the bases were far too open. As always, the test results will define what happens next.  Imgur album for map: Grand Battle Map

MA77: Saudações,   O Superteste de um novo mapa para o modo Grandes Batalhas ainda continua! Estamos lançando a quarta iteração desse local, e caso você tenha esquecido ou não estava por aqui, ele foi concebido como um mapa aberto em um cenário soviético, com locais de combate espalhados por todos os cantos e recantos. Os jogadores deveriam ter as oportunidades de movimentação relativamente segura entre diferentes as zonas e estender o ataque depois de vencer uma luta em um local chave.  
O que você mudou na quarta versão:   • Uma parte da cidade foi re-trabalhada. A julgar pelo feedback, era muito complexo: os jogadores tinham problemas com o local e não tinham certeza de que direção deveriam esperar que um inimigo aparecesse.
• As bordas do mapa foram feitas atravessáveis. Os jogadores queriam usar essas zonas, e achamos bastante razoável.
• As partes no leste e no oeste foram redesenhadas. As estatísticas do mapa mostraram que elas eram usados ​​principalmente por tanques médios. Nós estamos mudando para ter uma maior diversidade de classes.
• Agora há mais cobertura nas bases. As estatísticas da versão anterior nos mostraram que era problemático capturar porque as bases eram muito abertas.   Mais Fotos   Como sempre, os resultados do teste definirão o que acontece ao lado do mapa.   Por favor, siga as notícias e boa sorte no campo de batalha! 

TeriyakiTanker:   Point stands you are a redline camper, and a bad one.  Get out and learn how to play, you would be surprised how much good it does you!

MA77: Saudações, comandantes!

No próximo sábado, dia 21 de Julho às 15:00 BRT haverá um duelo entre dois gigantes: os vencedores da Corrida Armamentista dos servidores NA e EU, MAHOU e FAME, respectivamente. Mas isso não é tudo! Nós temos códigos de bônus para você. Preveja qual time vai ganhar e ganhe um monte de Reservas Pessoais! Adivinha incorretamente e ainda ganhe algumas Reservas Pessoais!

Se você acha que a MAHOU vai vencer, utilize: NAWINS. Mas se você está torcendo para a FAME e acha que eles irão ganhar, utilize: EUWINS.
Nós teremos três transmissões simultâneas e você poderá acompanhar tudo ao vivo em PT-BR no canal do Pavys - https://www.twitch.tv/pavysgamer!

TeriyakiTanker:   The funny thing is that what you see as proof of rigging I see as proof that you are a redline camper.  You have better games when you lose because that's the only time you actually get to do any damage, and when you win you do almost nothing because you actually don't ever help the team..... I wonder which one of us is actually correct.  I am guessing its me.

CabbageMechanic:   I understand your position - point of procedure though, the team working on in-game shop stuff is composed of platform devs, not game devs.  There are separate teams working on both fixing/improving current 1.0 maps, completing more 1.0 map rebuilds, and improving Frontline for the next iteration.  More maps coming next (major) patch.

DomoSapien: This Common Test is specifically for the Shop 2.0 interface. We'd love to hear your impressions in our official Shop 2.0 CT Feedback thread!

Jambijon: Apologies for not clarifying.  The 1v1 Masters bracket only has prizing for 1st-3rd and the Challenger bracket has prizing 1st-8th.    Brain fart on my part    The Mastery Bracket is meant for "higher tier" players, hence the higher gold amounts and tank tier, where as the Challenger Bracket is set at a lower tier with prizing catered to assist with progression and a little gold on the side.

Gnomon: Hi, again!  As you may have seen from my announcement post, today, we’re releasing the CT1 for our new Shop! Shop 2.0 comes with some quality of life changes that should make your experience with the Shop more enjoyable/easier to use.  If you'd like the details of the test, please check my post I linked above. Please play around with the new Shop and let us know what you think! Any constructive feedback (both positive and negative), comments, or suggestions are welcome. Also, let me know if you run into any bugs and try to provide as much info as possible as to what happened. I may PM you for more information if you do happen to come across one, so keep an eye out for that.  Thanks everyone, and best of luck on the battlefield!  

Gnomon: Hey, everyone!    I've got a bit of news for you regarding the Shop.   Our dev team has been working on a new in-game shop for several months, and it's finally available for testing! We plan to change the shop's interface and functionality, so we're starting a separate Common Test specifically for this new feature.   Why have we changed things? Well, the current shop allows you to browse through the list of available vehicles, modules, shells, etc. There are also filtering tools and special offers. However, the design hasn't been updated for a bit, leaving much to be improved.    We have two main goals with the new Shop:   Functionality: We want "Shop 2.0" to become the go-to place for anyone looking to get new in-game content. Due to this, Shop 2.0 will provide extensive information about every item available Convenience: Instead of small consecutive changes, we decided to make a new design from scratch and focus on usability and the overall look   We want to see what should be improved, changed, or even removed, so we'd like to ask everyone to join the test and share their feedback. Please leave your feedback over in my WCFR Shop 2.0 Post.   Also, here is the TEST CLIENT INSTALLER   I'm going to break down the new features in the spoiler below, but be sure to check out our article here: Explore the New In-Game Shop   Here's how the Common Test Will Work:   After joining the test, you’ll be provided with a certain amount of all in-game currencies (Credits, Bonds, and Gold) to buy in-game items. 100,000,000 XP 100,000,000 Silver 20,000 Gold 50,000 Bonds   We’ll be running an emulation of purchasing Gold and Premium Account with real money — to test the full-circle functionality. If you lack the Gold to purchase a Premium Package and decide to buy more of the currency, choose a bundle and click “Purchase”  — doing so takes you to the Premium Shop, where a payment operation will be completed. Upon release, Shop 2.0 will allow linking and remembering preferred payment methods by default, but during this Common Test, the operation will be automatic.   Features  Everything is Close at Hand   The old horizontally aligned three-tab menu has been replaced with a vertical set of icons, which now only contain shop items. The "Depot" tab has changed and taken its place, while special offers are now part of the Shop under "Best"     Two completely new sections, "Gold" and "Premium Account" have moved to the Shop, too, featuring options available for purchase. They could be left in the upper right menu, but we want to test this arrangement in terms of user experience.      The "Vehicles" section now has a cleaner look and a more clear structure. The list of machines is presented in tiles, divided into several categories (reflecting bundles), along with available Premium and regular tanks. The familiar filter is now hidden behind the tank icon to the right of the search field, so as not to frustrate players with excessive visual information. Its functionality remains unchanged: if you want to search a desired nation or vehicle class, click on respective buttons in the filter menu.   Once you click on any vehicle, it is displayed as if parked in your Garage, so you can literally “try it on.” If you choose a bundle containing several machines, you can switch among them by clicking on the desired icon at the bottom of the screen. Every vehicle will feature a historical note, a list of Crew members with their core abilities, and additional bonuses with descriptions (if you’ve chosen a Premium tank).     Equipment, Consumables, Personal Reserves, and Directives are all compiled in the unified “Service” section. Jump between the tabs to reach the type of items you’re looking for. In case you need an item for a certain vehicle, activate the filter in the upper right field and choose the desired machine.     Just like with vehicles, everything is divided into blocks; items available for Bonds are arranged separately. For your convenience, we’ve created a standalone section, “Items for Bonds,” where you can seamlessly access improved Equipment and Directives.     What's after this test?   At this stage, it’s crucial for us to know your opinion about the new Shop. We'll continue holding internal QA sessions to make sure it’s fast and reliable from the technical standpoint, but we also want to be confident Shop 2.0 performs well in terms of user experience, too. Based on your impressions, we’ll introduce necessary changes both prior to and after the release. Please let us know your thoughts!   Thanks, everyone!
