The_Chieftain:   Can I run it over?

The_Chieftain:   That, I didn't have anything to do with   I'll see what I can find out about the posts being removed, but at this hour, I wouldn't expect anyone to answer.

The_Chieftain: I was wondering why I hadn't seen him in a while.

veganzombiez:   The Quartermaster Unit is used to prepare the Evacuation reserve, which increases Industrial Resource kept after an unsuccessful defense of your Stronghold.  If you're getting that error message, and you don't have mods, send in a ticket to Clan Management support with a screenshot of the error message + your python log (txt file in your World of Tanks install folder).

The_Chieftain:   CK, I don't want to stifle your creativity, but I really think you're spinning your wheels here. I know the lads at Minsk have considered a number of options, from M60A1 as top of another branch through down-tiering half the US line, and putting M60A1 at the top of the current branch, to leaving things as they are. I was involved in this discussion with them last year. I don't know what route they are going to take, but I know that such proposals have crossed their desks. I also know that they aren't devoting many brain processor cycles to this, because they have more pressing things to think about.

veganzombiez:   On Safari: If you browse the forums, you can see that Safari did pretty well with the community, not just technically, but mechanically.  Yes, there are things that could be better, but overall sentiment's been good.  I'm currently discussing Safari with the devs at this time, and some of the things you guys liked will be in Campaign 4.   Most other things I'm bound by NDA, and I also don't feel comfortable speaking for someone else.  I hope you can respect my decision with that.  

veganzombiez:   Perception's a big thing, and it doesn't seem that NA is listened to, but we are.  Sometimes it's hard to notice that, especially with a game that's as global as World of Tanks PC.  I may not post in every thread, but I read them, and those threads help me get your feedback to the devs.  For example, the Influence economy was adjusted across all regions.  Let's take a look at the Tier X values on NA (Tier VI/VIII comparison here):   Tier X Influence Values Original Season 1 Purchase cost of a Division 350 210 Purchase cost of modules 30 18 Division + Module Purchase 440 264 Upkeep cost of a Division per day 100 60 Upkeep cost of modules 20 12 Division + Module Upkeep 160 96   "Yes vegan, you've already told us it's a 40% drop."   The EU server kept the original values (NA content page for comparison).  Our data did play a part in the decision, but the NA player feedback was just as significant.  When players highlight the toll that skirmish grinding takes on their community, and aren't reporting what they personally like or dislike, that's very valuable feedback.   Some things won't change immediately, especially since GM2 is a little over 2 months old, and Seasons are about 3 days old, but many mechanics are currently being reviewed.  One reason GM2's architecture was emphasized in the reveal is because values and mechanics really can be adjusted based on each region, such as the Influence economy being different across servers.

GhostPrime:   So for me, I have both. (I also have a Xbone) I play PC games as well as Console games, but the two are completely different beasts.   PC gaming is on the rise, and PCs are easy to upgrade. (You should build your own) many games are on both PC and console, PC has the capability for much better graphics. Mouse and keyboards are better used for FPS games and RTS games. A controller is able to be used on the PC as well. (You can use a PS4 controller or Xbox) Not to mention all the things you can do with a PC other than game. (Too much to list)   PS4 is a great system, there are many great games for it, and many more to come. It's easy to go to the gamestore pick up a used game pop it in and play. It can be an video entertainment system as well. It has a media player where you are able to stream video from your PC, PS4s have netflix, youtube, and hulu as well, just like a PC. It also has the PS Vue app where you are able to select different premium channels to pay for and watch. (in lieu of needing cable)   If you go for a PC though I strongly suggest a PC monitor. you will get much more clarity, and crispness.

pizzastorm:   It might cost more to set up initially but in the long run I think the lower cost of games for the PC will make it more worthwhile.  

Saffr0n:   It should not. They are on completely separate servers, which is why your latency with the Common Test Server is higher than normal. If you are experiencing a connection issue with the normal USE or USW servers please submit a ticket using our ticketing system and we'll troubleshoot the issue from there.

GhostPrime: While I ok'd the use of squash if you do not have pumpkins available, I would like to see Tanks made out of pumpkin, or squash. Not a mix of both.

GhostPrime:   Unfortunately we don't know when or if team battles will be changing at this point.   

GhostPrime:   The best thing to try is a clean re-install of the common test game client. If that still does not work, please send in a ticket to support.

pizzastorm: Hello Tankers,   There will be a few adjustments made to the upcoming update/updates based on the feedback received from the public tests.   Features that will not be included in the next patch: The new tank customization bonuses Gas cloud mechanics in Rampage mode   These features will be reviewed and reworked based on the feedback generated and hopefully return with improvements!   We will be keeping the new and improved customization UI, as well as the new Steel Hunt game mode with the new maps.   Other alterations to the update schedule will likely follow shortly.   We appreciate your assistance and ask that you continue to voice your concerns when issues like this come up in public tests! 

The_Chieftain:   The latter.   We're arguing over what we're actually going to call it, the name's a placeholder. Well, technically, I believe the argument is now over and I won. It'll actually look a bit different to the ones you see on Supertest right now, but it's pushed for a rapid release.   Why they couldn't do it with a US TD is beyond me
