Hey Tankers,
Trying to lock down the issues you are describing, haven't been able to replicate.  If you haven't yet, please submit a support ticket - our CS agents can access your account logs for more information and submit bug reports to the development team.

Einzelganger7: It all depends on the tank performance with the players who have been using it recently, for example, for a StuG III ausf. G we need around 1700 damage to get a first class medal, but with a T67 I bet it must be around 2k+. So it all depends in how good the overall players are using each of the tanks, the same goes for the marks of excellence.

TeriyakiTanker: Thanks, that is what I was looking for.... was playing last night and didn't see that they reset after completing them the first time!

TeriyakiTanker: Is it just me or are these not resetting?  Mine keep showing as unavailable.

Felipe6666Original: Evento finalizado. Estamos votando y comunicaremos a los ganadores cuanto antes. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: Este evento ya finalizó y estaremos anunciando y acreditando a tanto ganadores como participantes a lo largo de esta semana. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: Ahora sí, el evento ya finalizó y estaremos anunciando y acreditando a tanto ganadores como participantes a lo largo de esta semana. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original:    Lo que dijo Pepe, por más de que sea repetible, hay un horario estelar indicado en el anuncio. No sé dónde estés ubicado, pero a esa hora en Argentina, el uso horario más tardío de los de LATAM junto con los de Chile y Uruguay, la misión ya no se encuentra disponible. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: Habrá más premiums y regulares de otras naciones (habrá más anuncios a lo largo del mes), y no sabemos todavía cuál será el destino de este vehículo. ¡Saludos!

TeriyakiTanker: I'm calling BS on this, they limit the time so that more people will not have the physical time to get all the rewards and to make people feel like they need to jump in and play during prime time ensuring that the queues are full and that the event appears to be popular.  Limiting the time doesn't do a single thing to limit rigging so that just doesn't make sense.  If anything limiting the time you can do something would actually incentivize rigging...... but what do I know.

TeriyakiTanker: I thought you meant tier II and III.... but yeah more V and VIs would be cool.

Jambijon: Missions are active and working!  Apologies for the delay!

Felipe6666Original: Ya todo funcionando. ¡Saludos!

Einzelganger7: Each time I see those coupolas on US tanks from tier 8 to 10.

TeriyakiTanker: Its too funny..... so what compensation do those of use playing get for missing on out due to your inability to be competent?

Felipe6666Original: Es claro que el inicio de las Guerras de la dinastía está demorado. Estamos investigando el asunto para resolverlo cuando antes. ¡Saludos!

Jambijon: Hey Everyone,  We're aware that the missions are still showing as unavailable.  Will update as soon as we are able.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys! Tank Rewards for February has kicked off and runs from now (31Jan) until 26Feb to earn the tokens.  Players have until 29Feb to redeem them for prizes.  More information on the event can be found HERE. Top prize for Feb is the tank below. For more information on where to redeem click HERE

KRZYBooP: Not sure yet. It could go the route of the AE Phase 1 or be a premium tier 9 tank. 

KRZYBooP:  Shells are not purchased with only gold anymore they are purchased with credits only. The thought behind the World of Tanks economy is play tier ten have some fun, then filter back down to 7-9 to supplement your credits to go back into a tier 10 battle or be a pro and make them credits to keep playing tier ten only. (YAY Arty!) This is also why many tanks are tier 8, to assist with earning credits and training crews for tier ten.  HE is still useable against thin armor. Just more concentrated at one point. 

KRZYBooP:  If your opponent is having a heart attack from the beatdown being delivered I am pretty sure you are going to be safe from a retaliatory groin attack from that opponent.  

KRZYBooP:  Well, that seems extreme.

KRZYBooP:  

KRZYBooP:  HE is still being adjusted along with the other premium rounds in the game. There is no solid ETA on these changes at this time. Our streams are a good place to catch leaks since CabbageMech doesn't like to keep things from our players.  

KRZYBooP:  My "free" damage is always like 12.... 

KRZYBooP:  Ammo, in general, is getting reworked to offer more decision making when loading an ammo type. The idea is, Standard round does more damage but doesn't penetrate as well, whereas the premium round has a higher chance to penetrate, but causes less damage. This creates a trade-off between a guaranteed hit, or slapping someone in the face with a freedom shell of doom. HE is also getting looked at, and already seen an adjustment in the damage bubble parameters concerning falloff of the damage. That's not all though, our developers are looking at this ammo rebalance as a chance to change HE a little more, and already made adjustments from OMG whyyyyyyy to meh that round barely scratched the cigarette my crew member was smoking in the open hatch of the TD. Nothing concrete has been shared and everyone is waiting for more info. Mostly cause all future tank rebalances are waiting on ammo changes.  

KRZYBooP:  Ban XVM and someone will make a new one in a day called MVX. Mods for PC's is a thing and most games on PC has them. It's where a lot of new game modes are created and developed by the gaming community that plays them. Ammo rebalancing including changes to premium rounds is on the way soon. HE changes are included in the above. Some players like corridor maps and some just want a flat plane to fight tanks on. I have seen an equal demand in the many feedback threads and sadly the developers get the fun job of trying to make everyone happy and always falling short.

Felipe6666Original: Así es. Me disculpo por llegar tarde a la notificación, pero el inicio del evento se retrasó unos momentos debido al bug reportado por Edlara01. ¡Saludos!

KRZYBooP:  Then there is just Wing Chun 

KRZYBooP:  That would be terrifying if they spit poison, but sadly their spit is "poisonous" and after a bite from one there is a good chance of the bacteria-filled garbage mouth that the wound gets infected. Which does the killing much later if no medical help is found. Then the K Dragon just lumbers out of the jungle after the infection has done all the work. Those lazy dragons....

KRZYBooP:  That was my fault. I corrected myself in the post to let everyone know that the sale of the camo will stop as soon as update 1.8 happens.

MA77: Saudações! Hoje, o Concept 1B, um tanque pesado americano de Nível IX entra no Superteste. "Pesado", com certeza é, mas também é ágil e pode facilmente alcançar veículos médios, enquanto ostenta valores cruciais característicos dos tanques de sua classe.  Em termos de precisão, o canhão dele é semelhante ao do E 50, com um tempo de mira de 2,1s e uma dispersão de 0,36 m/100. Seu projétil padrão é APCR e tem 258mm de penetração, sendo que o projétil especial é HEAT e tem 310mm.Você levará 10,2 segundos para recarregar completamente e causar um dano médio de 400 HP. A torre tem 250mm de blindagem frontal e os ângulos de depressão/elevação são -10/+20, tornando o tanque uma ótima opção para jogar nos relevos.A torre está bem protegida nos ângulos retos, mas lateralmente e ao girá-la podem gerar um problema, pois 100mm de blindagem não é muito suficiente para seu nível. Quanto ao casco, a blindagem está longe de ser impenetrável, então é melhor jogar com cuidado.  Mais Imagens  Resumindo, a maneira mais inteligente de jogar o Concept 1B é aproveitar sua dinâmica para tomar posições importantes no mapa, mantendo um olhar atento sobre onde sua torre está girando. Gostou da novidade? Não esqueça de deixar a sua opinião nos comentários!

Felipe6666Original: ¡Buenas a todos! El día de hoy, el Concept 1B, un tanque pesado estadounidense, ingresa al Supertest. Imágenes 
Es un “pesado” sin lugar a dudas, pero también es bastante ágil y puede seguirle el paso a los tanques medianos sin dejar de presumir algunas características claves de los de su clase.  
La puntería de este vehículo es similar a la del E 50, con un tiempo de apuntamiento de 2,1 segundos y una dispersión de 0,36 a 100 metros. Su munición APCR estándar puede perforar 258 mm de blindaje, mientras que la HEAT puede atravesar hasta 310 mm. Además, le toma 10,2 segundos realizar una recarga completa para ocasionar un daño promedio de 400 puntos.
El blindaje frontal de la torreta alcanza los 250 mm, y los ángulos de elevación y depresión del cañón de -10 y +20 se sienten muy bien en terreno irregular. Su forma es lo que hay que considerar ante todo. Solo está bien protegido en los ángulos correctos, porque hay que ser honestos, 100 mm de blindaje lateral en la torreta no protegen a nadie de mucho. En cuanto a su chasis, el blindaje allí está muy lejos de ser impenetrable, así que es mejor cuidarlo bastante.
En resumen, la forma más inteligente de jugar con el Concept 1B es aprovechar sus dinámicas para tomar posiciones clave en el mapa sin dejar de perder de vista los alrededores al girar la torreta. Como siempre, recuerden que todos los valores están sujetos a cambios de acuerdo a los resultados de las pruebas. ¡Dejen sus opiniones y recuerden que participar del debate les da una chance de ganarse un estilo especial (más información aquí)! ¡Buena suerte en el campo de batalla!

TeriyakiTanker: You aren't just not a good player, you are a terrible player.  WoT is hard to even be decent at and you need to stop handicapping yourself.  Go back down to lower tiers and figure out what you are doing wrong.  Take it slow and find what tier you start losing money at and play the tier below that until you can tackle the next tier up.  This game is designed to incentivize players to pay money, if you feel that is predatory I get it.  But that is never going to change as it is the model they have chosen to make money, so I guess what I am saying is that at the end of the day this is a game and if you aren't having fun their is no shame in playing something you actually enjoy.

Felipe6666Original:  Estarán disponibles para su compra hasta el lanzamiento de la próxima actualización, la 1.8. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: La duda original fue resuelta, pero si quieres continuar un debate al respecto, hilo reabierto (cierro este porque no tiene sentido). ¡Suerte!
