Elias_K_Grodin: Great question! I'll be helping out the Community folks organizing cool events and activities! Might even pop up on streams in the future! In terms of the battle, you can catch me in mediums or light tanks. I'm still getting qualified on tank destroyers so it may be a while before you see me in those!

_BobaFett:    Thank you.

_BobaFett:  The Spanish/Portuguese articles always seem go up before the English ones. It is somewhat odd.

_BobaFett: Bump

_BobaFett:  It's to promote their clan by pushing their recruitment page back to the top. Which reminds me, I've gotta do that.

_BobaFett: http://forum.worldoftanks.com/index.php?/topic/646420-superteste-m48a2-raeumpanzer-m46-patton-kr-t95e2-59-patton/  I will replace the image when the English article goes up.

MA77: Saudações, Continuamos trabalhando para melhorar alguns veículos Premium, e chegou a vez de um novo conjunto entrar no Superteste.  Embora alguns dos veículos listados abaixo sejam de diferentes nações, todos eles compartilham a mesma origem: os Estados Unidos. Seus papéis em batalha são bastante semelhantes, o que implica que a natureza das mudanças também será semelhante: elas visam melhorar o conforto ao disparar e, em alguns casos, o próprio poder de fogo.
Lembre-se de que todos os valores estão sujeitos a alterações com base nos resultados do teste e não se esqueça de deixar o seu feedback! Boa sorte no campo de batalha!

MA77: ¡Saludos, Comandantes! Seguimos trabajando para mejorar ciertos vehículos premium, y ahora es el turno de un nuevo conjunto de ingresar al Supertest.  A pesar de que algunos de los vehículos listados a continuación pertenecen a diferentes naciones, todos comparten el mismo origen: Estados Unidos. Sus roles en batalla son bastante similares, lo que implica que la naturaleza de los cambios será similar también: están orientados a mejorar el confort de disparo y, en algunos casos, el poder de fuego en sí. Como siempre, recuerden que todos los valores están sujetos a cambios de acuerdo a los resultados de las pruebas. ¡Dejen sus opiniones! ¡Mucha suerte en el campo de batalla!

_BobaFett:  The irony...

_BobaFett: Wait, you're telling me you don't like your 50 Anniversary stamps?

Einzelganger7:  
Nice! One of the bands I've been listening a lot made a cover of that song.
  ​  

Einzelganger7:
Once again, thanks a lot! I am so happy to be one of the winners and congratulations to dagengster as well.
   

Draschel: in all seriousness, the gun has the same alpha damage, with more AP pen and accuracy, compared to Cromwell 75mm HV L70 75 actually is not too bad. Considering a long time ago it was 138mm AP pen, not 150. It has good accuracy and muzzle velocity The problem is the chassis. schmulturm desperately needs the panzer IV  horsepower engine, to give it some needed mobility. The turret is also a big gripe. It traverses left and right ridiculously slow, slower than many heavy tanks. This needs bump up buff  

_BobaFett:  This is The Way.

Draschel:  Do you know who valachio is? Well the guy doesn't play anymore, but when he did he called Is4 the diarrhea tank. As in, penetrating it facing forward is about as easy as s---- after eating taco bell. Valachio was twice the player I am, and about 4x what you are. Obviously turret roof and UFP buffs have arrived to save the day, but LFP is still weak. susceptible to any tier 8 with 225 pen. Is4 needs to be angled all the time. With 160mm ide armor? A person would be stupid not to. Generally, you do not want any of your UFP to be practically penetrable by AP, in tier 9-10. Is7, 279E, 260, E100, Maus, 705A, 263. Even 60 TP minus the driver hatch. Pretty much an upper hull, you want 300+ because you aren't cheese when 330 HEAT gets used. And it will be. Tank like 113? Is4? get turned to cheese Perspective, not even Leo PTA and RU251 are penetrating Is6 in the side with HE. speaking about experience with Is6, you have little if any.    

_BobaFett:  http://wotreplays.eu/site/5880660#redshire-jangofett-su-101 Few mistakes here and there, but a overall satisfying game.

_BobaFett: It is pretty brutal, I'm gonna be honest.

_BobaFett: The only one that might fit that criteria is the 703. Other than that they're all pretty balanced.

_BobaFett:  I was saying that bake thinks that the steam version is different than the regular version. 

Elias_K_Grodin: Howdy Tankers! I recently transferred to the World of Tanks team after being at sea for the past 3 years with the World of Warships NA crew! Excuse me if I’m a little rusty in battle as I still getting qualified in medium and light tanks but have over 600 battles under my belt since 2016 and still getting used to being on dry land! I’m going on my 5th year with Wargaming later this Fall and have served with not only the World of Warships team, but also spent over a year helping players on the Support Team!My former name was Gneisenau013 (referring to the German battlecruiser) but nowadays you can find me on the battlefield as “Hey_man_Gneis_shot”. You Filter fans out there know what I’m talking about! Here’s some fun (and not-so-fun) facts about my story and background: So what’s your story?I grew up and lived in Northern California (San Francisco) up until finishing high school. After that I joined the Marine Corps as a reservist so I could get dirty on the weekends and earn a degree at the same time! I earned a commission as a Marine officer but was medically discharged after an injury. Since then I’ve worked in different fields such as first responder, tech, and even the railroad before landing at WG. When the publishing teams decided to relocate to Austin, TX, I decided to move as well so this is not just a SXSW destination for me but now my hometown! What’s your order of battle for World of Tanks?I’m mostly a medium tanker so here’s my lineup right now:GER: Pz.Kpfw. III/IV (yup, when it was still a tech-tree tank)GER: Pz.Kpfw. IV Ausf. HUSSR: T-34USA: M4A1 Besides Tanks and Ships, what else do you do for fun?I grew up waaaaay before the Internet or even when computers were a household staple. I have fond memories building plastic model kits, especially of my beloved Pz.Kpfw. V – Panther! But the one hobby I hold dear to my heart is model trains. I love all things trains and even thought it would be fun to work on the railroad! Sadly, I found out that playing and watching trains is MUCH more fun than working on them! What other video games do you play?If I’m not trying to block shots in WoT and getting sunk in WoWS, I tend to jump on Pokemon Go and find an excuse to get outside and catch em’ all!I used to be active on World of Warcraft with a gnome warrior but haven’t been on for the past few years, yet maybe I might again! I’ve also picked up a Nintendo Switch and “Just Dance” has been quite entertaining! You were in the Marine Corps, is it really like the movies “Full Metal Jacket” or “Jarhead”?Sadly, no. As many other current active and retired Marines will tell you, both of those movies were Hollywood adaptations loosely based on actual life in the Corps. Although, there were times at MCRD where the drill instructors were disappointed and wanted to “motivate” the platoon. However some scenes from “Jarhead” hit pretty close to home, especially the “hurry up and wait” and finding out your significant other has “replaced” you back at home.  Has it been difficult switching from WOWS to WoT?It has been a learning curve so far! Tanks move A LOT faster than ships however much of the mechanics works the same way such as spotting, concealment, angling, and knowing when to load HE vs AP.However, it hasn’t all been me getting thrown at the wolves as I played Tanks from time to time and still remembered the basics enough to do this in a recent battle!    It may take some time to get up to speed on changes to the game in the past year but I’ve probably chatted with many of you on the WOWS community side or seen you in person at some Anchors Away Tour stops in 2019. Let’s remember not only to have fun in the battlefield but to also to share great stories and thoughts in chat, on the Forums, and with each other! Drive on and roll out! "One hundred rounds do not constitute fire power.

Einzelganger7: I have the same issue, what I do to open replays is drag the replay file over the World of tanks shortcut icon on my desktop and it can be opened normally.

_BobaFett:  Afraid not.

Einzelganger7: I also wanted to get rid of the free xp on my tanks, though I noticed that I have 7777 on my VK 30.02 M. That might be an exception.

TragicLoss: Updated! I don't generally check the announced/pinned posts often.

Definitely poke me directly if you ever see anything that's not updated that relates to streams  

Otherwise, our schedule is on the World of Tanks homepage.

_BobaFett:  Yes the O-I is definitely a keeper and no the tier 8+ tanks are not worth it.

_BobaFett:  Meh, not really. No redeeming qualities other than HP. Gun is meh.Mobility is bad.Armor is non-existent.Constant arty magnet. I only bought mine because I like the look of it.

_BobaFett: I do not believe is WG competent enough to rig battles for certain players or teams.

_BobaFett: The Type 4 is a worse experience than the O-Ho, to be honest.

_BobaFett: Unplayable, no.

More difficult, yes.

_BobaFett:  A classic.

_BobaFett: Yeah I was looking foward to the Italian heavies but they turned out to be mostly disappointing.

_BobaFett: Not nerfed, just powercrept.

_BobaFett: Bump

_BobaFett:  Try reinstalling the game or running the 32 bit version of it. That got rid of it for me.

_BobaFett:  If you have nothing positive to contribute to the discussion, please keep it to yourself. 

_BobaFett: It's like a snowball effect. The team that loses one gun will be at a disadvantage and if they continue to lose more guns, it'll only go downhill from there.

Draschel:  People do not think you are a bad contributor, because you have low stats and aren't as powerful a player people would otherwise expect a contributor to be.People think you are a bad contributor because you cannot take advice, in any sort. You are very insulting with your responses, and worst of all you thinking you are fashionably far better than you actually are. This is an unacceptable show of pride, and really provides your followers second rate content when you suggest terrible tanks and builds.  And an awful display of grammar, that is just tiring. You do not even try to post effectively.  Firing gold ammunition won't make you better, even if you did. sirfoch didn't fire heaps of gold shells neither has taugrim. And their results are bounds better. It isn't premium shells, it is a lack of a grasp and know-how to effectively excel. A very skilled person can play bad vehicles and do admirably very well in them. Even without premium shells because they understand they nitty gritty virtues of the game. You do not. And worse you get caught up on dumb conspiracies as to why people are good, and why others aren't. This is ignorance and folly. And ignorance and folly shouldn't be the beat of a CC 

Draschel:  what would you call yourself if you were the only person who had premium ammunition, and everyone else did not? And you still performed as you do now? Because i am pretty sure you would
