A great adventure wasn't it?

 

The winner doesn't really win anything. He gets a medal as the Forum Gamer. Don't think there's much moer to it xD

 

Think it will be hard for Stompers to win now, since they only have 2 or 3 active members I believe. Might work if the Ironheads and Gold Beasts destory each other though xD

 

Hmm.. Is it Speedy that gets do decide who switches or is it you?
Btw, what if the player doesn't want to change nation then? Is he still getting moved? xD

 

I'm wondering if this will change much in the game, or if it will still stay as it is. Will be interesting how the whole idea will turn out

 

They can, if they plan things right. If you would have built your troops before Speedy got down, you would have gotten up quite easily. So it doesn't really help to say that you can't raise troops. It can work out, if you get help from your team mates.

 

I think it depends on which game it is. I mean Halo 2 or Halo 3 etc.
Although overall, I think I prefer Halo. Always liked the Halo series, so it wasn't a hard choice for me

 

Since most of the Flash Games (as Aaddron said) are Browser Games, I'd have to go with Browser Games, since there are many oher Browser Games that are more fun and more well made than Flash Games, such as Drakensang, Runescape etc.

You don’t even have to look under the Christmas tree to find it – simply log in to your account to find this special little rascal:
MK. VIC

British Tier II Light Tank

Everyone who logs in to World of Tanks from 25th December to 16th January will have not only the vehicle but also a free slot added to their garage.

MK. VIC
Developed by Vickers-Armstrong, the three-man light tank Mk VI entered service in 1936. The vehicle was produced in three variants: A, B and C. With a length of just 3.93m and overall width of 2m, this 5.3 tonne machine was extremely compact. When the Second World War broke out in September 1939, the Mk VI tanks made up the vast majority of the armoured vehicles in the British Army.



Enjoy your new tank and happy holidays, Commanders!

 

Stream with Veider

Source: world_of_ru:

Hello everyone,

Stanislav “Veider†Kargin made one of his weekly streams yet again and Maiorboltach from RU LJ forums was kind enough to re-write the answers into text. Here’s a summary of what Veider said:

- M26E4 Super Pershing will be buffed, but not in the next patch
- Top tier TD’s will be rebalanced very soon, but how exactly is secret for now. It’s possible all top tier vehicles will be reviewed and rebalanced
- in 9.0 there will be no new tanks whatsoever, apart from possibly one premium tank (which one is secret for now)


- T-34-3 won’t be buffed, the tank is fine, if a bit lackluster
- night battles will not come anytime soon, Veider adds that it will be like blind moles fighting in the dark and it doesn’t look too good
- the new (SS: as in next) nation that is planned is the EU tree, but it is not sure when, WG has no plans so far ahead
- apparently there will be no map choosing in team battles, the map will only be displayed before the battle starts
- new Chinese vehicles have the same problem as the Japanese heavies (SS: holes in tree, not enough info)
- Roaming is still being tested, not sure if it will come in 0.9.0
- Veider uses Jagdtiger 88 for farming
- KV-5 will definitely not be buffed, the vehicle is doing just fine in battles
- Lowe won’t apparently be buffed further either and IS-3 will not be buffed either, as it is “the most balanced vehicle in the gameâ€
- probably the most unbalanced (SS: overnerfed) premium tank is the Super Pershing, it might be reworked
- the “Alien†M6 buff is not planned for now
- Panzer IIJ is overpowered, it won’t be buffed
- British tier 10 TD will not be nerfed, Jagdtiger 88 speed will not be buffed
- the new upcoming map will be Kharkov: it’s much like Ruinberg, a 70 percent city map, only with higher buildings
- it’s possible Maus might recieve further buff somehow, but Veider is “waiting for nowâ€
- when told that cybersports players are whining because arty is useless, Veider replies that it’s pointless to talk about artillery, since there are “other plans for them†(SS: as in, for cybersports)
- Veider states that tank transfers from player to player (SS: as in, trading tanks) will be allowed only when players stop stealing accounts (SS: which means never)
- E-10 (SS: the “Hetzerâ€) is planned for release, apparently the adjustable suspension is a small problem
- US Christie tanks were postponed for far future
- FCM F1 is not planned for now
- SU-85i will be released soon as a regular premium vehicle
- new French vehicles (TD/MT/HT) do not have the highest priority, the priority is in HD models and alternative hulls
- Highway is being completely reworked by now
- Wargaming planned new US medium branch, but it was postponed, its top tier is the T95 Medium Tank, very similiar to the Soviet T-54 according to Veider
- current Wargaming player rating won’t be removed, Veider thinks it’s almost perfect now
- RhB WT will not be nerfed soon, but its performance is being watched carefully
- apparently, in far future, players will be able to reset their player statistics (SS: I am not absolutely sure I got that right)
- Char 2C bis and Sturmtiger were both modelled already but later postponed, but the 2C bis case is that Wargaming doesn’t simply know where to put it in regular branch and don’t really feel like pushing it at all costs, there are 5-10 such vehicles on WG “shelvesâ€
- rear-turret VK4502B will be buffed
- US premium TD: there is one very paper vehicle (SS: as in, not very well developed) for tier 8, but that one has not even reached pre-production stage in real life (SS: odd)
- AMX40 is fine statistics wise, but really lackluster and it cannot influence the battle as much as other tanks of the same tier
- it’s possible there will be a tiny buff of ARL V39
- Historical battles will come in 2014, maybe in first half
- there will be changes to the T49 tank destroyer
- Object 263 branch is “playable†according to Veider: “Noone promised it would be easyâ€
- it’s possible T23 medium tank will return to the game, but not soon, WG keeps it in mind however
- T18 will not be nerfed
- Veider on T7 Combat Car: “Well, let me tell you like this, it’s not exactly an ultraOP vehicleâ€
- new maps for team battles were not introduced, because there was a clash of two groups, the regular players wanted new maps, hardcore cybersport guys wanted to play only the old maps and since TB is meant for cybersports, WG decided not to put new maps in it
- new tier 8 LT will come in 2014
- there will be no arty vehicle amongst the gift tanks
- there will be no tank and airplane battles on the same map, Veider states that when he played Battlefield, he always got really pissed when he got bombed in his tank by a plane and he couldn’t do anything about it
- IS-7 statistics are closely watched for now, this goes for IS-4 too
- Q: “When will there be fewer noobs in the game?†A: “When you leave *laughs*â€
- the “quality of armor†parameter will not return
- in near future, WG will buff tier 8 premium profitability, but not by much
- Veider states that if he really wanted to get that IS-6 from the event, he could do it in 3 days

 

Storm is asking about bad MM in 8.10


Source: world_of_kwg:

Hello everyone,

apparently, a problem came up with 8.10 MM, because Storm is asking, whether the Russian players had some bad MM setups lately (he mentions cases where one side for example has 3 tier 10 heavies and the other has 6). The newer the better and the more disbalance gets reported, the faster a solution will be found. This applies ONLY for patch 8.10.

From the discussion:

- the fact tier 10 arty sometimes gets balanced against tier 10 heavies is considered normal according to Storm
- developers do like patch 8.10
- there have been no (SS: intended) changes in MM in patch 8.10

And what about you? Have you run into weird MM cases in 8.10? Post them, including a screenshot (please, ONE link (any link) per comment, posts with more than one link get withheld in the spam queue and I won’t approve until I see it there, which might sometimes be with significant delay).

Russian Q&A with developers from WG, done by EU player Silentstalker, on his blog "For the Record"

- all the servers altogether (RU, EU, ASIA, US) should be able to handle 1.500.000 players at the same time (Russian cluster only wouldn’t be able to handle such an amount)
- KwK 44/2 for Panther (Ausf.F) will not be implemented, as there are no significant differences in performance from the KwK 42
- it’s theoretically possible Panther Ausf.F hull will be the stock hull for Panther II
- there were no “secret†changes in camo and spotting mechanism in 0.8.10
- Japanese tanks are “not more stealthy than acceptableâ€
- when assigning camo factor to a tank, both the approach where it is assigned manually and the method where it is assigned automatically based on the vehicle size are used
- SerB doesn’t like the fact SU-76 and T-70 can’t meet Tigers in battle (to be historically appropriate), but says he can’t do anything about that
- vehicle reliability will not be introduced into WoT. SerB: “Masochists can migrate to other gamesâ€
- planned server-side replay will be one replay for all the battle members, eg. you’ll be able to see the entire battle from anyone’s POV
- Crusader arty (5.5in) is doing fine statistically
- players not understanding the exact mechanism of how much XP you gain for what? “How terrible…â€
- the fact you can rightclick-look around in sniper mode in a tank and you can’t in a TD is due to the fact players got confused when the view resetted to the TD firing arc
- dust raised by gun blast wave and other such effects are already implemented into the gun firing camo loss
- Q: “Why does IS have -6 depression and KV-1S -8 depression for 122mm gun, when both turrets are practically identical?†A: “How terrible, we should change it to -3 for bothâ€
- Q: “Do the developers know about the disconnects from server?†A: “*surprised* What? We have servers?! Use your brain a little. If you have one.â€

As a result of the “8.10 M feedbackâ€, Storm states that everything is fine with 8.10 MM

Good platoon of medium tanks is very powerfull. When they have opportunities for flanking and for attacks from multiple ways it is just fun to play.
