ARGO: Sounds more like an Aquarium filter thats clooged......

MrVic: Okay there seems to be some confusion today
The upcoming patch will not include a softwipe.
The Softwipe is planned to occur with the Server split.
The Patch will more then likely arrive prior to the Server split (aka softwipe time)
The plans for the Softwipe have not changed, There may have been some miscommunication on that part.
IF the plans change it will be posted officially and it will be done as soon as the plans are changed (I do not see any changes coming for the softwipe beyond the date it happens)
So more then likely we will see PATCH--->SERVER SPLIT/SOFT WIPE---->PROFIT
Hope that helps
Update: Should see a better run down of whats coming this week.

ARGO: You get a cowardly lion
I put in croissant

ARGO: I think the balance system is only half the factor of the game, It is also the players and strategy too. I was in a game last night and although looking at the our team vs the enemy team we should have absolutly destroyed them. We had a Maus, an IS7 "The Works" even our mediums were better. Their team had an IS7 and an IS4 for top tanks and thier lower teirs were mediocore at best however what they did have were two things 1. A plan 2. skills. They took our arty out 1st, then our heavies. It was Lakeville and they faked going through the city and rushed the valley. They were all over our base before our team even got half way to theirs. Although we lost I have to admit, they were magnificent.

ARGO: This kind of humor has no place in Game discussion and should have never been posted in it. This type of thread should have been made in off-topic HOWEVER, Making fun "even in jest" of another race, color, creed, country" is not a practice this forum never allows so with all due repect to our French neighbors I am sending this topic to the junkyard and locking it.

Tanitha: There is no cheats for wot, everything is safe serverside.
However there is 1000 wild accusations, links to keyloggers and viruses, and lame ol fake youtube vids linking to keyloggers.
All this discussion about something that doesn't exist gets old.
There is no "known" cheats for wot, there is no father xmas, and there is no tooth fairy..
Sorry to break it to you.. but they are the facts.
There is a test server that runs on a different system. Some bugs in some maps where you can shoot threw walls/mountains etc.. But not cheats/hacks..
Thread locked and dumped..

Overlord: Typo. Should be BL-10 of course, see the first post of the topic.

Overlord:
Yes, the scheme and armor values are correct.

Tanitha: Yeah weight shouldn't be literally taken as tonnage.. It should be referred to as worth/strength/etc..

Tanitha: I dont know why they are releasing french tanks next.
But have a read through this, there is lots of goodies in it, and its the post that i like the most regarding other nation tanks.

Tanitha: 1. In closed beta atm, Open beta will be soon (no released date)
2. There will be separate forums coming soon. A euro and a USA forum, with the possibility of others such as a german/poland forum as well.
Until then there is sections for other languages.
Regards.

Tanitha: Your problem mars, Is you are using a forum account that is not a beta tester...
<<----------------- See over there? you are listed as "member" not beta tester.
Do you have another forum account from when you made the game account, which is a beta tester?
Either you have one broken forum account, Or you have two forum accounts and you are using the wrong one.
When you lopg into a forum account that is set to "beta tester" then you will see the other 80% of the forums. At the moment, you cant access much at all.

ARGO: I used a laptop for gaming for 10 years simply because at the time I had niether room or $$ to get something better. My laptop I actually used as a server for online gameing from 2001-2009 and it did admirably. I now have a very nice desktop rig I built but still have a good laptop as a back up or if I travel "Got to have my WoT fix". Laptops have come a long long way with gaming and there are a few really cool laptops "Alienware" out there that suppport the king of power needed for gaming needs HOWEVER It seems like laptops are always playing catch up with their desktop big brothers due to the fact that you really can't upgrade them all that much. Laptops as technology progresses will most likely replace the desktop as the PCs of choice but only when computer manufactures make ones that can recieve descent upgrades and grow as the consumers needs do.

ARGO: IS4 is so omnipotent that even when it misses, it hits.
Rules of IS4
1. IS4 is the most powerful force in the universe.
2. IS4 will always win
3. If IS4 loses, see rule #1 and repeat as many times as needed.

Overlord: I'm glad that at least we are compared to WOW. That's something.

Overlord: And for winning contests too. Perhaps we will think of some other possibilities.

Tanitha: As above, you probable bought a new KB AND installed xfire
Switch the xfire off anyway.

Tanitha: You can email support@......
But imo the best and quickest way to get this fixed, is to get another key that works..
There is a lot available here, instantly.

Overlord:
BL-20 will be the only tier 10 gun for Object 704.

Overlord:
Object 704 will be added with the following update (the one after 0.6.2).

Soft-wipe has no relation to our patch schedule, it depends on the time when EU servers are up and running.

Overlord:
One should know where to stop. Jokes are jokes, but there have already been enough of them in this thread.

Overlord:
Object 704, M12, Geschutzwagentiger, Т-54, Panther II, M26 Pershing are planned for late December - early January.

MrVic: There is a few second period before the base captures, its a buffer. Also it creates the situation if you do not inhibit or stop an enemy team capping your base at the same time your capping theirs, that a draw can occur from dual base caps. Otherwise you could never generate a draw in that method when truly it was so close it was a draw
Otherwise the odds of capping in the exact mili second is so rare that you would not see draws in that situation.
Its working as intended and adds more of a tactical choice in those last moments.

MrVic: Its a Turn table for the ability to dismount the gun and act as a fixed Artillery piece. (which would make it not a SPG at that point) Also not something I for see adding due to it being field artillery, but down the road ya never know.
