Exactly.
Purposely TKing someone then saying "oops sorry" is the other side of the discussion..
Establishing intent (From a screen-shot) is difficult, with or without a "sorry"
Anyway I know they are working on this issue.

ARGO: I got this off the internet:
IS-4
1944 design, in competition against the IS-3. Longer hull and thicker armour than IS-2. About 250 were built, after the war.
IS-7
1946 prototype, only three built. The IS-7 model 1948 variant had a weight of 68 metric tons and it was armed with the 130 mm S-70 naval cannon (7020 mm long barrel) with autoloader and stabilizer, infrared night scopes, 8 machine guns, armour from 220 to 300 mm thickness and 60 km/h roadspeed. Crew of five. It must be noted that the Slostin gun was to be installed as its AA armament.

I don't know if I would get it ingame. All I'd really be getting is 900 horsepower and 20mm more armour. But then, I'm just making wild guesstimations. Maybe it will be the tank I had to have?

Tier 7 spgs are going to be introduced prior to bigger maps.
We will have to cope with it somehow.

From an admin, Jeremy Taylor:

- Premium accounts; the premium gives +50% to credits and gold per battle to the owner. Premium account is a very good thing for players who don't have enough time in real life to dedicate to their favorite game. Still however, this account will not give you any advantages in battles. I mean, Tiger achieved through playing with premium will be absolutely equal to Tiger achieved without any investments. The only advantage is your time saved.
- Premium tanks; these are some prominent special tanks that will be a kind of jewels in the crown of your collection.
- Gold; players will be able to purchase some additional gold to be later exchanged into ingame credits
- Custom features; some personal drawings, insignias, custom camouflage and clan emblems available for money.
Still, we believe that majority of players will be getting tons of fun playing World of Tanks without investing a penny.

Archives\Beta\Reduce "suicidal scout run"Link on message: #237584
Tanitha: Firstly, I'm thinking the suicidal scout runs of the past dont work
very well any more, with no warping they die too quickly, even
leopards.
And secondly, Part of the suicidal scout run, was getting lots of exp from killing arty while you were in the enemy base. That's now a lot harder because you don't live in the enemy base for long.
Another part of the suicidal scout run was lighting up the enemy so your team mates/arty could shoot them, and you get paid support exp for their damage. But again that's now limited because scouts have a limited life in the enemy base now.
I doubt suicidal scouts are earning anywhere near what they used to earn now that warping is fixed.
Scouts are due to be buffed soonish

Overlord, on 18 November 2010 - 01:01 PM, said: Most of the problems arise from some obvious problems with
spotting/detection system, icluding so-called invisible tanks and
malfunctioning modules (camo net, optics etc).
With warping having been fixed in 0.6.1.5 once and for all, the detection system as it is now, remains one of the biggest issue.
Increasing the rate of visibility checks, that currently depend on distance between two vehicles, is going to increase server load substantially. Nevertheless, such option is under consideration and we are planning to see how it works at supertest.

games. Sure there is a problem with sighting "IMO".
I didn't/don't know there was any new problems though, because I thought the problem was there before the patch as well and was just as bad before the patch..
The only feedback I've seen so far, is the servers are due for a upgrade which will reduce lag. I don't think the problems are just lag problems though.
Mods have asked devs for a update and more info recently (Today), and devs have been pointed to this thread.
As for my previous post, I was just posting and informing that id merged a few posts on a similar topic into the one thread. The photo of the elephant was just because it was at the end of a 36 hour shift due to not being able to sleep, and I was a bit nuts. Ive not posted any constructive feedback into this thread, because I don't have any at the moment.
Please be patient : )

Shelving this tank for now. Kind of annoying seeing as how I got it the week before the patch.

Does the Pershing come alone in a patch or does it come with more tanks like the PantherII?
And is there a time-line ready for these new tanks to come out? Something like beginning of 2011 or December 2010?

Likely that all 3 Tier 9 mediums plus some Soviet and German tanks from full release tree, including top-tier artillery will be added simultaneously.
US TDs are currently in development. 50% completed.

It would be a topic for another conversation, I guess.
Personally, I highly doubt that "another nerf" will be required. We don't want US tanks (tor heavies) to be whipping boys of the game.

The point of Beta is to get feedback on a game in development, right?
Okay, so which feedback do you think is more valuable: the humans you have playing the game, or the statistical numbers being generated?
Wait, before you answer -that- question, answer this one: are you making this game for numbers or for people? For mathematicians or average people?
Okay, so what's more valuable to the players who are trying to enjoy this game? Numbers? No!
Beta isn't simply about numbers and data, it's about the players. C'mon, Devs! Stop throwing numbers around and acting like they are most valuable thing here. Player opinion should carry at least some weight.
That said, I'm not trying to diminish the incredible effort I'm sure is being put into this game by the Dev team. No, that isn't my intention at all! Keep up the hard work, guys.

Can't but agree. Player feedback is important source of information. But when it comes to bugs (20% bugged armor), we just have to fix them. No other option here.
If the performance of US tier 7-10 heavies falls dramatically, we will start to think of possible way out.
