Tanitha: Yeah youve only had 100 battles in it.. And thats your main
problem, the gun..
If you have it maxed and fully upgraded, which takes 200? battles about from memory. then its a decent tank.
I still don't think its as good as a IS4, but its pretty close..
I think the vk4502 is closer to the IS4, than the tiger/tiger2/mouse is to the russian counterparts.
So out of the tiger/tiger2/vk4502/mouse, I prefer the vk4502...
Grab the bigger gun and its a different tank.

Pictures of the Week said: Note: Many of these images are from projects in progress. They should be considered Alpha images and not final
With everyone returning to their normal work schedules around the world after the holidays, work picks up its pace and new stuff comes flooding out. This week since the Dev team was getting back into the swing of everything and very busy, combined with the immense amount of photos and patching given out for the holiday surprises, were thin on new pictures (heh pretty understandable given all that got released) So I figured this week I would post up some images of tanks being discussed on the forums. Will dig through my archive and try to find some less known photos for this week!
This weeks photos are "MrVic's Tank Photos" Something to tide us over this week

Tourist Guide to Maps of WoT said: Written By: Ripper753 "Division Acorazada 250"
Murovanka tourist guide

1.- "The white houses". Many people go there and shout "GO OUT PHANTOM!! I'M BRAVE! I'M HERE!!!". Sometimes the phantom go out and kill that guys, but sometimes nothing happens and the people in the white houses feel stronger. It is like therapy. If you don't know where to begin, go there.
2.- "The lumber mill". It is like any other lumber mill that you can build in any RTS. It produces 200 wood per minute.
3.- "The hide-and-seek hill". There you can play hide-and-seek, that's why. The people go there fast, then stop. After a while they move slowly thinking (they can't see me, im the best). When they reach a nice bush then stop, shoot and die.
4.- "The fishing hill". People go there, sit in a bush and wait. Like fishing. Sometimes something bites, and sometimes nothing happens along all the morning.
5.- "Town of Murovanka". When you visit Murovanka, you can't move as usually. It's forbidden to look to the haunted forest. You must run from house to house, and pray between them. Only brave people try to look the forest from a corner, and die eventually.
6.- "The mini-forest". If you are too scary of the haunted forest you can stay there. Being a coward is natural born, there is nothing you can do about it. We understand, really. Don't feel bad, think that you are in Malinovka. Dont read the chat and that's all.
7.- "The sausage hill". ¿Do you remember the film "Hamburger Hill"? Ok, nothing similar. It is the place to go if you need a bit more concentration before trying to go to the haunted forest. It have some nice bushes too to spend time and see the green dots disappear.
8.- "The haunted forest". You have two options when you visit Murovanka. You can come by north, then you will only visit the haunted forest. Or you can come by south, then you will never visit the haunted forest. Its like a phisical barrier that separates the forest from the town. You try to go to the other side but something stop you.
9.- "The burning Messerschmitt". Yeah, there is a crashed plane there, and it is burning. I swear.
10.- "The most chicken spot ever". I must tell it, once I saw a guy hiding there. There is a hole where you can hide pretty well. I swear, one forest guy came by north and when he saw the enemy (me) he hid there! The most funny of all was that i saw him all the time but he was aiming the ground thinking (im a rock, im a rock). Erm...sorry. A very nice hill to find chickens and other shy animals.
Note from Ripper753: No funny drawing this time, I can't find it. I know that it is there but...I just can't. If you see the funny draw of the map please send it to Ripper753 (me) by PM and I will publish the best one next week.

Pictures of the Week said: Note: Many of these images are from projects in progress. They should be considered Alpha images and not final
With everyone returning to their normal work schedules around the world after the holidays, work picks up its pace and new stuff comes flooding out. This week since the Dev team was getting back into the swing of everything and very busy, combined with the immense amount of photos and patching given out for the holiday surprises, were thin on new pictures (heh pretty understandable given all that got released) So I figured this week I would post up some images of tanks being discussed on the forums. Will dig through my archive and try to find some less known photos for this week!

Tourist Guide to Maps of WoT said: Written By: Ripper753 "Division Acorazada 250"
Murovanka tourist guide

1.- "The white houses". Many people go there and shout "GO OUT PHANTOM!! I'M BRAVE! I'M HERE!!!". Sometimes the phantom go out and kill that guys, but sometimes nothing happens and the people in the white houses feel stronger. It is like therapy. If you don't know where to begin, go there.
2.- "The lumber mill". It is like any other lumber mill that you can build in any RTS. It produces 200 wood per minute.
3.- "The hide-and-seek hill". There you can play hide-and-seek, that's why. The people go there fast, then stop. After a while they move slowly thinking (they can't see me, im the best). When they reach a nice bush then stop, shoot and die.
4.- "The fishing hill". People go there, sit in a bush and wait. Like fishing. Sometimes something bites, and sometimes nothing happens along all the morning.
5.- "Town of Murovanka". When you visit Murovanka, you can't move as usually. It's forbidden to look to the haunted forest. You must run from house to house, and pray between them. Only brave people try to look the forest from a corner, and die eventually.
6.- "The mini-forest". If you are too scary of the haunted forest you can stay there. Being a coward is natural born, there is nothing you can do about it. We understand, really. Don't feel bad, think that you are in Malinovka. Dont read the chat and that's all.
7.- "The sausage hill". ¿Do you remember the film "Hamburger Hill"? Ok, nothing similar. It is the place to go if you need a bit more concentration before trying to go to the haunted forest. It have some nice bushes too to spend time and see the green dots disappear.
8.- "The haunted forest". You have two options when you visit Murovanka. You can come by north, then you will only visit the haunted forest. Or you can come by south, then you will never visit the haunted forest. Its like a phisical barrier that separates the forest from the town. You try to go to the other side but something stop you.
9.- "The burning Messerschmitt". Yeah, there is a crashed plane there, and it is burning. I swear.
10.- "The most chicken spot ever". I must tell it, once I saw a guy hiding there. There is a hole where you can hide pretty well. I swear, one forest guy came by north and when he saw the enemy (me) he hid there! The most funny of all was that i saw him all the time but he was aiming the ground thinking (im a rock, im a rock). Erm...sorry. A very nice hill to find chickens and other shy animals.
Note from Ripper753: No funny drawing this time, I can't find it. I know that it is there but...I just can't. If you see the funny draw of the map please send it to Ripper753 (me) by PM and I will publish the best one next week.

Note from Ripper753: No funny drawing this time, I can't find it. I know that it is there but...I just can't. If you see the funny draw of the map please send it to Ripper753 (me) by PM and I will publish the best one next week.

Tanitha: I doubt there is anything hidden, as in nothing changed without us
being informed.
Because Ive not even updated yet. I don't usually run the launcher and just run the game directly.
The version number didn't change, so it still works with or without any patches.
When there is changes the patch number changes too.

MrVic: I think that was the best and nicest post ever asking about the
speed on a KT. (and yes I am being serious lol)
It seems the Devs work to get them as close as they can, but without throwing things out of balance, or to test how it effects balance.
Adjust something a bit see how it performs and assess if he needs more or less and how it stands in its tier ect.
Every match we play effects that data

MrVic: Touching on the point of historical accuracy ect, As Gnaw touched
on, I am a rather extreme historical nut case, (Yes I actually pay
money for dusty copes of reports from archives) I have a thrilling
68 page report on Green paint used on early US tanks.... Not the
best thing I have spent money on, and let me tell you its not fun
to read lol.
My big difference is keeping in mind unless your insanely committed to research and counter research, you end up with a really limited view of popular "ideas" of how things were.
A good example is the discussion of German Hardened Armor. Keep in mind I am not trolling and I do not want this to effect the game in anyway. This sort of information only shows the average across the board of armor and armor quality in WW2 really were so erratic that in the end their in essence the same.(This is in reference to Plating not welds bolts and such properties if you want I can write up a good 4000 word break down on the boring side of welding and construction) Mainly due to quality control and errors in manufacturing designs aka normal stuff that happened. In the end every nation had Excellent armor alloys and at the same time on the same tank made right after it on the same assembly line had Poor armor alloys. Its just the nature of the time standards and technology.
The following Images are just part the main part of a few reports (I have TONS more if you really want to be bored) Also I have them from most major nations testing labs also
(Yes I am a WW2 Dork) I have reports
from about all angles. US vs Ger Ger vs US RU vs US US vs RU
This is what can happen with Historical over abuse

Overlord: Rebalancing will take place non-stop after release as well. It's
inevitable, the more tanks we have, the more difficult the whole
system becomes. Current balance between factions is quite ok, but
there are several weak spots like tier 9-10 US tanks, Maus, IS-4
(better than counterparts) and some others. Current trees will be
reworked, especially US and Soviet ones. Regarding German tree,
production of E-series will be speeded up.
It was our idea to implement French tanks first. Do many people know much about them? Have they been represented in other games much? I think, no to both.
