  7. Hi Overlord,

    Good work on the patch. Don't get down because of all the whiners. It means they are emotionally attached to the game and there tanks and therefore you are doing a lot of things right :)!

    Q: Can you give us a small sneak peak of the major features of Patch 6.7?

    ReplyDelete
  8. T-30 tank: hit points decreased by 50, dispersion during movement and traverse increased by 10%, dispersion during turret traverse increased by 30%;



    Don't you mean T30? ^^,

  10. realy are you guys serious,
    test patch 2, all loved the new E series it was great, everyone whas completely happy with the stats of the tanks, but then, test patch3, big nerf for the E series ,ffs why this nerf, no one asked for, E series wasent overpowered at all. Now after test patch3 the whole community is raging about the nerfes but is ignored by WG. If you ignore the community long enough then one day there is no longer a community to ignore. IF the 6.6 goes live with The E series is useless as in test patch3 ill stop paying a single Euro for this bullshit.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Why does the patch comes so much later then last time?
    Russian Players get it today and the last patch did we get one day later. Trouble with translations? :D

    Thanks.

  14. Don't release 6.6 with test3 specifications plz.

    Delay it some days for new test version (if it is necessary) better than releasing a fail patch which is made players disappointed

    ReplyDelete
  15. Being respectful didnt get me anywhere, besides, shouldnt that go both ways?

    ReplyDelete
  16. "A: I ask you to be respectful. Otherwise I will have to turn off anonymous comments."

    You are absolutely right.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Q: what is the spec of E75 and E50?
    will they be nerfed as test patch 3?

    A: why you even ask? ofcourse e50-75-100 spec will be nerfed!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Give respect, and respect shall be granted You!

  19. The E-series tanks are being released with test 3 specc in mind, i think Storm said something about that..
    Wasnt unexpected :)

    Then KT will be my end of this game and I will not pay a single $ for it.

  21. Overlord,

    Please be clear. Is the test3 final version of the new patch?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Sure it is the final version. The Russians get the patch totay!

    ReplyDelete
  23. where is the respect for the players, wg is ignoring them continuous, is that what you call respect?

    Respect is not a gift its a privilege which you have to earn!

    Ignoring the community ist not the way to earn respect. Maybe you should think about that.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Q: Please be clear. Is the test3 final version of the new patch?

    A: Yes, it's true.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Well then its confirmed, im giving up and going for Russian tanks, this is not ment as a whinepost, its just that i already have the old german heavy line and i see no point in going for the E-series as it has the same flaws..

    ReplyDelete
  26. Ofc :) we wasnt expecting anything else .P
    I remember you overlord, saying something about we must wait to the e-series, they will be the turning point for the german tanks or something.. Was that a lie? And yet you demand we be respectful?

    ReplyDelete
  27. 30%???? Its a HUGE nerf? Why did you nerf the T30 so much? Did it really deserved it??? I mean what is the statement used to legitimate this nerf?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Then turning to be even weaker?

    ReplyDelete
  29. Massdit, because it hits russian tanks too easy

    ReplyDelete
  30. I'm reading loads of topics about bugged T28s, T95s armour, is it really not working correct or as some say "working as intended"? Could you please set this thing straight.

    ReplyDelete
  31. This is disgusting, no more euros from me to WG.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Overlord, tell us your own opinion about the balance between is 7 and e-100. Do you really think that is 7 is not better? :/ Why did you nerfed tanks? Was there any "russian tanks negative" feed back from russkies community?

    Thanks for your answers.

    A: Being messy, test server does not really show the true balance, it does not give the full picture. I will give you my assessment a week or two after the update is out.

    ReplyDelete
  34. For those who didn't follow the test server threads:
    E50 - a medium tank with the agility of King Tiger
    E75 - VK4502 with a different skin and weaker lower front armor
    E100 - another brick with lame lower front armor and a gun that bounces more than the short 88.

    If you ever considered playing the E series don't spend a cent on it. It doesn't worth the money.

  35. Overlord, why is patch 6.6 already being applied on RU server, why so huge delay for EU/US server?

  36. Q: Overlord, why is patch 6.6 already being applied on RU server, why so huge delay for EU/US server?

    A: Is it really huge? Update will be up next week. We don't deploy patches on Fridays, if smth goes wrong, it will be more difficult to fix this.

    ReplyDelete
  37. yes just got lucky i did not research german heavy, will go russian IS-7 now and replace german mediums with T-54. probably gonna sell my panther, panther 2 and e-50 guess its not worth the wait sigh

    ReplyDelete
  38. Overlord, we're very dissapoitment. E50 is now a brick not med, E75 got huge weakspot and is slow as VK (wasn't it intented to be something as fast line as russian ises?), on e100 penetration values are too low, weakpoints too huge. Ovi u promise something, I know it's your job to tell nice and smooth things but we rememeber your words about e-series - it should be competetive (yup, E50 as huge brick is surely competetive to fast and agile medium as t54, also E100 with penetration value 235) and now u behave like ugly gaming corporation, like EA or Activison sucking money from customers.
    Now i lost my interest, I've got two months of premium and I can't see a posibility to have fun of it.

  39. WG thumbs down... test 3 is just a joke in balance. You fail

    ReplyDelete
  40. I buy Maus. Spend lot of money ( 5 mil. silver+ 400 gold for tank, 600 gold crew, 30 gold for rammer ..., ) and now is Maus nerfed. Give me my money back and take this thiny maus for me. Lowe is not nerfed because is for gold ( increased price). My Maus cost me more. Ruskie for win. I vote for soft wipe. I buy IS-7 and all will be ok.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Please Overlord can you answer :
    "I mean what is the statement used to legitimate this nerf? (for T30 about dispersion)"

    ReplyDelete
  42. Once again we fill that we have been betrayed by the Dev team.
    May you realize that the new E series on the Test Server is NOT OK. You ( Dev team ) are already working on nerfing it. Please STOP that.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Right, my clan is now boycotting gold purchasing, will also contact certain game newsletters etc to tell them how WG plays business, big B for bad!

    ReplyDelete
  44. what are you doing with the Maus???

    -400 at hp?

    Dev team have you ever played with Maus???
    If you do not have HP why the f.... are you on the map??? we are sure that not to make DMG.

  47. Overlord,

    Could you please tell us why did WG chose to ignore the opinion of the EU and US players about the upcoming E series.

    Time and time again you were told that it is not well balanced and that the tanks you are introducing are... in words everyone understands... really shitty.

    Tite and time again you were told that in the event you go on with the test 3 specs we will quit paying money for your game.

    Are you willingly giving up on the $ brough to you by the EU and US players?

    Regards,

    Fedain EU

    ReplyDelete
  48. now take me serious.. i was about to spend big money on e-50, e75 and e100 .. believe me when i say..i wont pay a dime for this game.. i have premium since the wipe.. not 1 day without premium..now i have 9 days left of premium account ..and i wont buy premium anymore.. this games is more and more annoying, more unbalanced..

    ReplyDelete
  49. Can you please explain logic behind T30 nerf?

    T30 is already weakest T10 heavy and you are nerfing it even more. This is another senseless nerf, like the one when you nerfed US gun depression.

    ReplyDelete
  50. uninstalling wot tonight ... its more a joke then a game ...

    it was rly nice and fun to play ... but known imbalances (is4 and t54 since 4 month) will not be changed and new tanks are not more than a joke ... a rly bad joke ...

    do u want the players to change to world of aircraft or why u develope such a ... such a ... i dont know a word for all the disapointment ...

    ReplyDelete
  51. i don't understand 1 think about WG, about 10 players i know will quit to spend money in this game , thats minimum 100$ per month (10 players x 10$ each month) and i'm reading this blog every day and about 50 posts say they are quiting even they have money in this game and about 50 people are saying they wont pay for this game anymore , so its about 10k $ per month you lost becouse you nerfed E series , so whats the point of this patch ? get more people or loose more people ? and if this will go on you will be bankcrupt very fast. i'd say about 7.0 patch or so :)
    if you go like this no1 will play WOWP becouse they'll know all russian plance will be OP and there wont be any balance .

    p.s. i respect your patriotism of your native tanks and you want them to be best in game. but this is MMO game and you should consider balancing them so every nation player should be happy :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. If the test 3 is completely final - does that really make it a test?

    ReplyDelete
  53. "p.s. i respect your patriotism of your native tanks and you want them to be best in game. but this is MMO game and you should consider balancing them so every nation player should be happy :)"

    yeah ... no problem with this ... but the other tanks can be slighly behind ... and not that far as they are now ...

    ReplyDelete
  54. Q: Overlord, why WG do not want/allow a german t9 medium tank to be suitable for serious company and CW matches? As the E 50 is developed now, the tank will take the same part in CW and Companymatches as the P2 - none.

    At least, it would be only fair if there is a warning on the german med tree: "Warning, this tanks are not suitable for Company or CW matches!!! Random matches only, because only there you can ignore the people who are blaming you for staying in the 2nd or 3rd line for sniping!"

    ReplyDelete
  55. I don't agree on final E-series stats but for anything else: good work, thanks. btw: the looks of Panther with long 75 suck. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  56. I'm pretty annoyed that you've put in a nerf on T10 tanks.

    Why not be done with it and rename them tier 9.5? Because its not like there's a big jump from a IS-4 to a IS-7.

    You should of left the Maus HP as is and increase the HP of the T30 and IS-7.

    ps: What was the bloomin point of a 50hp shuffle on tanks that tank 500+ HP hits? When does 50hp less actually matter? One game every fifty?

    ReplyDelete
  57. - T30 tank: hit points decreased by 50, dispersion during movement and traverse increased by 10%, dispersion during turret traverse increased by 30%;

    Sorry I didn't clearly with that? The point you want to mention means the aim circle right?

    ReplyDelete
  58. If you take 400 hp from a Mouse I want it replaced with JS7, atm I got very small chances of killing JS7 1 on 1 with 3200 hp, and with 2800hp there are none.. are you insane??

    ReplyDelete
  59. I'm a clanleader of a clan with 75 members.
    Round about 50 players getting premiun regulary.
    Last night 30-40 told me, if the testpatch 3 is the final version not one cent anymore for this game.

    I can realy understand them and it's my opinion too.
    An other game that will go down the hill, because of ignoring the community.

    ReplyDelete
  60. When is the T34 move coming in, I was under the impression from a while back that it would be this patch (6.5 to 6.6), also the IS4 to tier 10.

    From -
    "In Development: Vol. 2
    New US heavy tank М103, a substitution to Т34 as tier 9 US heavy tank.
    Soviet heavy tank IS-4 shift to tier 10 and introduction of Object 252 as new tier 9 Soviet heavy tank."

    ReplyDelete
  61. crossposted unintentially in should only have posted here sorry...
    Dont usually post here or on forum.

    Have spent the bigger part of my vacation to grind enought XP forthe 3 new E tanks. Can´t put in words how dissapointed I am. I feel sicerely ripped off and empty. Been looking forward to have an nice autumn with the new E-tanks and around x-mas get the stug E-100. Now I havent got the motivation to even start the gameclient. Why should I bother anymore?
    Dont wanna play other then german tanks. Can´t understand what wargamings agenda is but I won´t support it anymore. Have probably spent 300-400 euros wont spend any more beacause german vehicles never seems to be competetive in this game. Really sad, and boring ingame. Seems like only fools play german vehicles. I was one of these fools. I wont be fooled anymore.

  63. Will there ever be nation vs. nation battles in this game?

    ReplyDelete
  64. And of course IS-7 only got 50 HP reduction while Maus and T30 got nerfed a lot more.

    Seriously WG?

    You simply have to stop this obvious "Russian tanks shall be better than German/US tanks" plan.

    This was the last straw for me, I've stopped buying gold until WG's mind set has changed.. I have a feeling that is going to be a long time and by then I've surely moved to another game.

  67. i have one suggestion before updating the patch try battles nation VS nation not for players for you developers and you'll see why all we are complaining about German tanks beening underpowered so much :) E series Gave us some hope to play with german tanks and have fun but nooo... WG just split on our opinion and do whatever they liked :)

    ReplyDelete
  68. This is make not sense!
    in new patch on russian server E-75 get :
    Suspension 21 deg/sec, and Turret 20deg/sec !!!
    This is outrageous!!!
    let make just a game of russian tanks,not world of tanks.
    really this looks like a frustrasion for russians kids,to see in patch2 how a german tank can destroy is-4,is-7,the "mother of their tanks"!.russian kids whining for their destroyed tank,is a real frustrasion for them...wtf

    ReplyDelete
  69. E75 and E100 will go live with the test 3 specifications? I wasted a ton of money and time in this game. Not that you have to care but you lost another customer. Might still play now and then but you wont get a cent for your salary from me anymore. I hope you enjoy the servers beeing flooded with 90% russian tanks. What a ripoff.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Dear Overlord,
    I see that you do not want to answer : "Please Overlord can you answer :
    "I mean what is the statement used to legitimate this nerf? (for T30 about dispersion)" " as you posted in between.

    As a result I come to the conclusion that :

    A. You do not know why such a HUGE nerf has been performed. It really is scary as you are the main CM and the link between dev and player. You must know important stuff. It is not seen as important :/...

    B. There is no reason (a bit silly, but who knows?)

    C. We would not like the answer (understand irrelevant statistics)

    Every single possibility makes me feel pretty bad/sad. I start to think that I wished I did not payed my last package of gold as I start to lose fun and interest in the game as many others. I do not like it, I have been playing since more than a year now...I feel kinda attached to this game. I feel sad.

    Rgds.

  71. "Don't get down because of all the whiners. It means they are emotionally attached to the game and there tanks and therefore you are doing a lot of things right"

    Amateur psychologists, my least favorite internet citizen. Always wrong and making irrelevant remarks about valid criticisms. Unshakable in their self-righteousness.

    Overlord has freely admitted to the Russian bias and pro-communist slant in his own comments.

    The game is a fantasy, semi-role playing game where most of the tank lines never existed beyond prototypes that never worked well enough to advance to production. Many of these tanks never worked anywhere but in the game.

    People keep confusing it with a WWII era tank combat game, which it is certainly not.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Are there going to be possibility for a limited soft wipe option (free exp & tank refund)? Even if it would cost gold.

    In every mmorpg I have played and seen lots of changes (nerfs & buffs in game mechanics), there's usually given an option to reset your stats and commit your progression points again (somehow limited ofc).

    I think this would be reasonable action because lots of people have been grinding top tanks (mainly for Clan Wars in their mind) for months and now they are unhappy for the work they have put into this game. These patches have broken their vision and they feel frustrated with their current progress and the don't trust anymore the direction the game is going.


    In other words, if the customer is not happy for the deal, it's not considered a trade, but a fraud. (I'm not saying that any official contract has been broken - only mutual satisfaction).

    ReplyDelete
  73. Surprise surprise, Germans get a tank which can rape Russian tanks in close combat, Russian tank players QQ, E-75 gets nerfed.

    However, Russians seems to be a bit... unskilled, I keep killing them in 1v2-3 even after the nerf. (Best one was yesterday, killed an IS4 and 2 SU-152s)

    Anyway, I have a serious question:
    Overlord, did anyone report a weird bug on the test server? Sometimes (occurs randomly) right after I load up, the game starts to stutter (screen freezes for 2-3 secs in every 5 secs), and produces weird graphical bugs (ground disappears, I only see the tanks, stuff like that), making me burn myself and skip a round... Happened 4 times on the test server already, never happened in the "normal" client so far, so I guess the problem is in the test patch, not in my computer.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Last one have a point! +1

  75. I have a question Overlord:
    "• Introduction of Е-75 and Е-100.
    Undistributed experience from elite Tiger will be transferred to King Tiger.
    No additional refunds are planned."

    This experience transfer will happen in this patch or?

    ReplyDelete
  76. Whats gonna happen to Panthers users already have?

    ReplyDelete
  77. And what about something like "limited number of the heaviest arties in battle" ? Or "arty's tracers enabled back again" ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  78. Man, Overlord, just in the two-plus hours this thread has been up, two clan leaders have said that at least half of their clan members are not going to pay for the game anymore, and TONS of others have said they're in the same boat. It's not just on the U.S. and European servers, either; the Russians are revolting, too. Influential people in the gaming world are now going to give you tons of bad press, too. Is any of this registering with you and the devs? You are witnessing a MASSIVE evaporation of your customer base, and it's all because you all can't stand to have German tanks anywhere close to the same level as your precious Soviet tanks that are based on fabricated, propagandized statistics.

    I posted in the 6.6.3 thread a few posts from Russians regarding admitted biases from the developers, one even saying that people are stupid for playing anything other than Soviet tanks. I frankly wouldn't have believed such things before this E-Series fiasco, but I certainly believe them now. Your bias has been laid bare for all to see.

    I hope you invested your money wisely, because your income from World of Tanks is going to dry up quickly.

    ReplyDelete
  79. LOL! Overlord deleted a post that was calling for a boycott of the game!!

    Way to be community leader... FAAAAAAAIL!!!

    ReplyDelete
  80. Reading through the thread, I sense angry pro-German tankers that feel they have been somehow cheated out of getting a tank competitive with that of the Soviet line.

    There are claims that the developers do not listen to their feedback (because they are Russian and biased). Yet, all the feedback I see is along the lines of buffing German armor and weapons to unrealistic performance numbers, which do not even consider the fundamentals of game design or balance in the slightest sense.

    For example, they would ask the penetration of the 150mm to be buffed as it is too low. If that was to happen, then the 750 damage would have to go, or the accuracy would have to be upped to perhaps 0.4 (whichever values the developers use to weight those parameters).

    In other words, you can't have your qualities A, B, C and D to be high and you must have 1 or 2 that are lower.

    For the 150mm E-100 cannon, that is penetration and accuracy. The high point is damage. The average quality is aim time.

    When you post credible data and evidence that you understand game design and balance concepts, perhaps then I will reconsider your comments. Until then, they are mostly unsubstantiated vapor that sounds more like an angry rant than an intelligent response.

  81. Lol @ this patch:
    Maus - nerf
    E series - joke
    T30 - nerf
    IS7 50 HP nerf <- lol

    You guys must be on vodka all day.

  82. I have a question to all those who feel cheated by the E-series. Why do u guys say that you will go Russian tree? Don't give this pleasure to WG!!!! I haven't played on test servers so i give the E-series a try and if it doesen't comforts me than i just "stop playing the game" (only once or twice a week and only the duple XP round)

    ReplyDelete

    They NEED to enhance (artificially) the German tank stats as lots of core elements of the game artificially enhance the Soviet tanks (greater camo, viewing ranges too low, maps too small, soviet tank speeds, massive alpha damage + excellent HP's and Armour).

    Without it the German (and US) lines are OBVIOUSLY under powered...just about 90% of the EU server acknowledges this.

    Its not "hate" its not "conjecture" its player-proved fact.

  89. Flakker2, it's not the 150 on the E-100 that concerns me, as that is more of a derp, shotgun weapon. The 128, though, should be able to deal some significant damage with plenty of penetrating ability.

    Also, the lower armor up front needs to be shored up, and the tank itself should be a bit more agile.

    ReplyDelete
  90. Funny thing is... they know how to make a good E-series line.
    By option they prefer not to make it though. Maybe it's their nationalist mentality that doesn't allow it.
    We need to understand that Soviet people lived in cultural enclosure during the period post WW2 until the end of Cold War. They still have to socially evolve due to that enclosure.
    This lack of evolution reflects in this game in the distorted way they balance the game.
    They tell us the truth, for them the game is balanced. They can't really see it isn't.

    Of course that should be boycott - they were crossing the line since CBT (yup, ROF nerf for KT, speed buff for ISes and so on) but we were tolerating this cause they made some promises. Now they broke it and we simply don't trust them when they saying about balance improvements in patch 7.0.
    So:
    1) we want honesty information policy - every stats must be visible, no hidden camo stats or something. Also we need to know how exactly you want balance current tanks with future ones - maybe you got plan, maybe E75 fits well in future M103 and Object 252 (or T10) but we need to know now how you want to balance it.
    2) keep your promises and balance tanks properly - amount of weakpoints on tanks must be equal, surface of it must be equal and vulnerability must be equal. Penetration values on top tanks must efficient to penetrate each other properly, no more gaps like turret on t54 immune on counterparts fire while T54 can penetrate P2 reliably.
    3) respect us - we gave you our time and our money. I took part in so many contest I bought preorder and bought gold each month. All I want for that is treating me as a partner not as a milky cow. And we don't want to be forced by game mechanics to choose one side instead of another.

    Hear us Overlord, cause this time you come too far.

    Ok, leave E 100 as is, but increase the size of IS 7 and give a similar derp gun to it, and lets see how many happy russian tank drivers will you see here ccheering for the "buffs"

    The IS-7 and E-100 have different roles, so it makes no sense for them to be mirror copies of each other.

    "They NEED to enhance (artificially) the German tank stats as lots of core elements of the game artificially enhance the Soviet tanks (greater camo, viewing ranges too low, maps too small, soviet tank speeds, massive alpha damage + excellent HP's and Armour).

    Without it the German (and US) lines are OBVIOUSLY under powered...just about 90% of the EU server acknowledges this."

    The developers are working on larger maps. Soviet tanks often have worse visibility than other tanks. It was done because of the game balance I was talking about earlier. Some values have to be low, others high, you can't have a tank with all pluses, as that would be the definition of unbalanced.

    Its not "hate" its not "conjecture" its player-proved fact.

    How can players prove anything when they seem unaware of the criteria required to accomplish a balanced game? Sure, some of them may understand that but the majority (that make posts at least) seem obsessed with calling even the slightest change due to Russian bias?

    How can 90% of the server acknowledge something when most people do not even read the forums? You claim the majority is behind it when all I see is a few LOUD voices that pretend to act as if they were the majority. I do not remember voting for them to be my representative :-)

    PS. If you guys want me to respond to your comments, you need to make sure you are not posting as anonymous.

  94. Dear Overlord,
    Can you please provide a list of reasons why you have decided to make these negative modifications on the Maus Tank? Implementing changes is one thing but providing a decent reason for it another. Yes I am a Maus Driver and frustrated about the changes, nevertheless I can also say that based on my experience the Maus tank used to be perfectly balanced so far, in comparisation to the other tier 10 tanks. I'd appreciate if you could provide feedback on my question. I am a holder of a premium account since several months, and spent time and money on a product (Maus) I actually enjoy playing without being superiour! Don't underestimate the number of people who might leave Wot behind and move on to another hobby if you don't forget to keep the balance in game. thanks a lot in advance.

    Dosnt matter what u wrote down here. This is just a news blog. No reason to whine here. They didnt care about the hall EU community. This is a russian egoist game.
    If u would like to do something better, just do not pay for anything in this game. Thats all.

    Oh and u can delete all anonymous comment. Thats will show how mutch respect u have for the EU community.

    The IS-7 and E-100 have different roles, so it makes no sense for them to be mirror copies of each other.

    Mate, E100 is nearly useless without gold ammo at this point. With gold ammo it's a copy of T30 with more weakspots (lower front + rangefinder on turret).

    I guess they implemented the T30 nerf that at least in clanwars it may be considered as alternative time - to time, but still won't risk spots of precious IS7, the one and only truly offensive T10 heavy tank in game.
    Maus can be used offensively only in cities where you can hide them from arty, also the nerf of HP will even reduce their role to block places while you advance elsewhere.

    EU forum has in excess of 1 million users.

    I'm sure that the majority do log in and read it, and that they appreciate the updates on the game, the hints, tips etc and read the discussions.

    Sounds like a Majority of players to me? Sure, there are a minority who are "vocal" about these issues.

    Don't misunderstand me, I firmly believe Soviet tanks are not, in themselves, overpowered. The game is flawed and this gives them an unfair advantage.

    I want tanks that are balanced, weaknesses balanced with advantages for ALL tech trees.

    Unfortunately, Wargaming seem keen to retain the status quo...a broken system...I fail to understand this and after several patches promising change, it hasn't occured.

    A few minor items have happened which are good, but the fundimentals remain unchanged and its killing the enjoyment of the game for lots of paying customers.

  100. Nerfing T30 is a grim joke...
    Longer aiming time imply :
    -more exposure
    -less accuracy
    -less survivability
    And why? Cause USRR tanks have to be the best? T30 already dont has armor at all... Gun was his strong side. And now? Crap.

  102. "Are there going to be possibility for a limited soft wipe option (free exp & tank refund)? Even if it would cost gold.

    In every mmorpg I have played and seen lots of changes (nerfs & buffs in game mechanics), there's usually given an option to reset your stats and commit your progression points again (somehow limited ofc).

    I think this would be reasonable action because lots of people have been grinding top tanks (mainly for Clan Wars in their mind) for months and now they are unhappy for the work they have put into this game. These patches have broken their vision and they feel frustrated with their current progress and the don't trust anymore the direction the game is going.


    In other words, if the customer is not happy for the deal, it's not considered a trade, but a fraud. (I'm not saying that any official contract has been broken - only mutual satisfaction)."

    I agree. I would like to rework some stuff. I with my current information I would choose another way and tech-tree. I know we are all responsible for our action, but like the previous poster says in a long text, that the OPPORTUNITY COSTs have changed. In the US those it mean, that in many cases the customers have the chance to change their former decisions. As example can I name CCP: How gives free Skillpoints (which are even independent of the attributes) when such a change is happening.

    http://www.mmocrunch.com/2010/06/24/eve-online-unexpected-downtime-ccp-compensates-with-free-skill-points/

    http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Skills_guide#Learning_Skills_removed_in_Incursion

    and in many other cases. I would love to have this change, even when I have to pay a little:(

    So now my Question to Overlord will be their a change for player which have gone for example to an E-50, that they get the XPs back (and of course make this tank unavailable again)?

  103. Just quitted that game because after 6 months it
    becomes obvious that devs want no balanced or
    competitive game. They want an arcade tank shooter
    where soviet tanks rule everything else.

    Im sure as russian, playing russian tanks only,
    that game is great. For me, its bullcrap.

  104. Overlord why wait two weeks before you want to review the E-series? hoping we will forget how bad they seem in two weeks?
    Well I wont, two weeks from now = 18/8-11 looking forward to your review then.

    ok lets compare From Tier 5

    Tier 6
    KV-3/M6/VK 3601(h)
    KV-3 with its superior armor and angle and with his 390 damage ... with 175 penetration :))

    Tier 7

    IS/ Tiger I / T29

    Tiger paper armour even PZiv can damage u even PZ III/IV/ T29 good gun good turret armour but everyone knows hull armour is weak, IS 5.59 ROF with 175 Penetration and 390 damage and normal armour 120mm :) t29 and IS is balance somewhat but Tiger is peice of paper...

  114. Instead of complaining here, since it seems it wont change anythine.

    ReplyDelete
  115. Actually…Overlord…can we just, please, NOT have this patch at all?

    I mean, relaunch the patch in a few weeks WITHOUT the new tech tree’s or tank buffs/nerfs. We’ll have the “nice to have’s” such as two person platoons but introduce seriously flawed tech tree’s and unbalanced tanks and I think we’ll just walk.

    Just…just, leave it ok? I’d rather have no E-series at all, than a poor excuse of one.

    since ive been playing from the start ive had almost 6000 matches , yes i have better stats and more kill ration with my IS-4 but most kills 9 with my KT most damage GW Tiger most EXP my Tiger I with 2.1k and this is when the german tank is inferior before patch boosts.....So when u see me In my E75 and E100 fear me :)when u see me in a russian tank run lol :)

  118. why not make a poll about player satisfaction about the game.

    ReplyDelete
  119. The decrease in acuracy is probably due to the fact that mediums can't really take on a T30.
    If you circle a T30 you will notice that the T30 turret is faster than a T54. If you even rotate the tank then you are even faster at turning.

    What they've done is to make sure that the T30 is no longer a medium tank slayer like it was. That huge inacuracy will sure mean you miss alot of shots while rotating, and trying to get rid of that fast medium circling you. And you know the reload time it has today, one miss is usually enough to make sure you loose and die.

    I guess this was another way to buff the T54s as they are very vulnerable today against T30s.
    Well hell, any medium will find a T30 a fricken nightmare. I kinda liked it that way it was since the T30 didn't really have much else going for it.

  120. Hi!
    T30 nerf??? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
    Why be even more difficult to break the weakest tank anyway??
    Pathetic this whole thing is a tank which is why you should spoil even a tier 5 tank armor-piercing projectiles is diagonal??
    if any new updates you should not do such things you do give out more updates as you move in that direction if this is all a ruin, and then you can not just me but I will not play it no more than 1000 players, so I will not be surprised. -.-"

  131. I will ask about few things:Coz i feel just new tanks with gimp stats and just by giving armor with lack of other stats that will suck anyway...
    1.Why you guys add new german tanks?
    2.E50 is by speed of 5 faster and bit more armor.... has less traverse speed and less turret speed same gun as before patch Panther2.
    3.Maus nerf by 400hp and and last time i checked gun ROF was nerfed by 0,4 and not 0,2.
    Maus is slow easy to be picked by arty and 400hp thats like alot compared to faster IS7 and T30 which you nerfing by silly 50hp i mean cmon...i have IS7,Pather2 and t54 and i preffer to play russian tanks there is no way german tanks will be comparable to russian.
    4.Panther1 is a joke as well you nerf the gun to the gun like Pzkmpf4 gun...go and look at the same guns on russian/us tanks same tier...what you gonna do with ok dmg not sure if it was like 140 but penetration like 134? or other gun penetration 198 and dmg 110 or so? seriously i wont play Panther1 after patch but its not fair for other ppl who may want to lvl german gimp meds which i already have.What you gonna do with dmg if you lack penetration? or you have penetration but you lack any dmg...Look at other Tier 7/8 tanks meds...it wont help ROF is high if gun sucks
    Feedback:
    T54>E50
    IS7>Maus,E100

    Not gonna comment E75 or E100 but it doesnt look good by reading ppl who tried/played

  132. I am sick of Clan Wars being played 4 arties + 2 Mauses + 9 IS7.. But now we will have 11 IS7 per game. You will see.

  134. learn to play your tanks...

    german tanks except maus are not supposed to lead attacks, they are supposed to stay at range and kill the enemy...

    if you have problems of penetrating other tanks you should aim for their weakspots...

    guess what: even russian is-series and meds have riccochets on their german counterparts!

    conclusion: if you don't know how to play the game read some guides or watch videos of other players. it's always the same in every game, when people are worse they start to flame or complain...

    4.Nerf on T30 isn't too hard. You can overcome it with skill.
    5.I am getting along with the russian tanks as enemies.
    6.Learn your roles. If you want to lead attacks and push the enemy then play russian tanks.

    I have a question:
    Is a consumable equivalent to the russian "Removed Speed Governor" for the other fractions planned, like the removed Afterburner planned?

  143. What is this for sick joke nerfing the americans again.

    Why even change the T30 now when you have to rebalance it completely again when moving to the TD line....

  144. The rumor's of USSR tanks being OP ain't as serious as some would have them, and the costs of KV over T1 Heavy, and KV-3 over M6 almost makes up for it aswell -T29 vs IS is a good match, Tiger I however, needs a little boost (not in hp)

    Since i've got a T30, my mind responds negative to the sound of nerfing it.
    But we gotta trust Overlord and the rest of the crew, they want it to be balanced for everyone! Instead of negative comments and stuff like: ''you are going down, you will lose players 'cus of this'' help out with facts about what could make it more balanced, even though they might allready be aware and trying to fix it allready :D

    I'm pretty disappointed with what I've read so far about the E-Series. It's gone from something to which I was really looking forward to being something that's really just more of the same (and maybe not even *that* good). I'll still give the E75 a go, but I don't really have high hopes for it, anymore. It just looks like it will be another sub-par brick easily damaged by lower tiers. :-/

  157. Well, real problem is the way how game is balanced - victory statistics, not tier balance...

    So, we all know that russian tanks are overpowered and players often act fearless while german tank players plays more wisely... I myself play with King Tiger and IS-3 and with IS-3 I feel more unstoppable so I engage more often without cover and get killed by hidden tanks waiting for russian sucker player like me to appear on their minimap...

    Solution to unbalanced problem is playing with german tanks and shooting in the air, dying over and over again until russian tanks start to statistically win big time :)

  160. The reason they are nerfing the T30 maybe because they are getting ready to move it to the US TD line. Am I right overlord?

    A: It's not the right time for this. It will be adjusted in another way to fit tier 9 TD role.

  166. My Question:
    "• Introduction of Е-75 and Е-100.
    Undistributed experience from elite Tiger will be transferred to King Tiger.
    No additional refunds are planned."

    This experience transfer will happen in this patch or?

  175. Well aint that peachy!

    Can't say i'm surprised

    They said that overall russia has way more players than EU and US combined so, they just cater to their bigger player base.

    Personally i'll just do my daily 2x xp matches and stop when prem account ends.

    I'll see when WOWP comes out. If I notice the slightest bias towards russian planes in that game it'll be the last time I spend any time and money on wargamming.

    I suggest all do the same.

  176. Hi Overlord

    Thank you for making a really cool Tank game IMO. Could you please answer more then 1 or 2 questions so that the community can hear more of your views? BTW Are there going to be any improvements made to the JagdTiger so that it cannot get penetrated frontally by almost any Tier 5 gun and above. Because what I have read was that in WWII 2 JagdTigers took on 25 Shermans and destroyed every last one of them.

    ReplyDelete
  177. Seems Overlord answering here.

    Q1: So please can you give me shot why you tune down E-series on patch 3 ?

    Q2: Why was Maus tuned down aswell ? It was necesery ? Because most used tank in CW atm is IS 7. So "buff" Maus and T30 is the way to get other nation tanks from CW ?

    Can you give me answers thank you.

    A1: Our guys were "playing" with specs. The purpose of test server is to test and adjust afterwards, all the content there is NOT finished.

    A2: Maus was overperforming, not doubt about that.

  180. we are not excited because we dont have the answer of our main question.. why do u hate german tanks.. i am not a german, i am not a nazi..but i play german tanks.. i payed for my Maus the way it was why nerf it?

    why e-series is useless? why bother make them if are useless?

    why t30 nerf?

    u promised something..we believed you.. pointless..

    we paid money..nobody listen to us..

    we dont have enough reasons to enjoy this game anymore..so you are right we are not excited

    Best regards,
    Yours ex-premium user

    Oh those kids this times :)

    "A1: Our guys were "playing" with specs. The purpose of test server is to test and adjust afterwards, all the content there is NOT finished. "

    So, you dropped idea that E-series may be a fast haevies, so will you buff VK4502 to ful-fill this role?

    A2: Maus was overperforming, not doubt about that.

    QA1: Why not put specs from "test 2" on live and see how that performs? So far the majority here detest your decision to put "test 3". What? Will it kill the devs to put "test 2"?

    QA2: How? If a IS-7 is in front of me he can kill me while I ding him 10 times in a row! (yes that happened in CW three times!)

  183. Q: Flakker are you a developer?

  184. Maus overperforming OVERLORD>>>??? in what game?? r u f nuts??!!

    u even played with Maus?? i think i'm loosing my minds here..

    im glad when i see the other team with lots of mice.. if they have is7 and t30 i know we dont have a chance..but the maus is easy to kill.. now easier..

    i am a T54 and maus driver if that counts

  185. Q: Overlord, do you guys still plan to introduce the T34 and T30 changes in the same patch or will the T34 replacement with M103 happen before T30 is replaced with T110?

  186. Dear Overlord,

    A1: Our guys were "playing" with specs. The purpose of test server is to test and adjust afterwards, all the content there is NOT finished.

    You just gave me a clear answer today that it was the FINAL version.
    So you are clearly contradicting yourself dear Sir. So which one is it? Finished or NOT finished?

    Looking forward to your reply.

  187. @ Overlord
    The tests are for adjusting or? You bring out some stats and the community gives their feedback, and founded on that you are adjusting the values to find a good balance, or, that is the thing testing is for if i am right.
    So, here is my question:
    Why are you bringing out Test 3 as final version?
    The most ppl of the community complain about the changings, yes, there were changings necessary, but not at these points you (the devs) made them, why dont listen to the community and what they are saying?
    (even the russian community complains about the extreme nerf of the E-Series)
    So, why are you choosing test 3 for going life?
    And is there the chance to see a readjustment of the stats from the E-Series?

    ReplyDelete
  188. And to be perfeclty honnest with you, if test 3 is final version (it seems it is), I'll quit Wot for good.
    Not because E series will be useless, but because game devs obviously don't give a damn about the community's feedbacks.

  189. What are you excited for you. So it's just when an underdeveloped nation brings out such a game. Then they want to be the biggest...because they are not realistic in the...starving an miserable in the country...an the mafia determines where to go...

  190. I really have to wonder now how World of Warplanes will turn out to be. I'm pretty sure a MiG-3 will outrun a Me-262 and a Polikarpov I-16 will be able to easily down a Bf 110.

  191. Q: You just gave me a clear answer today that it was the FINAL version.
    So you are clearly contradicting yourself dear Sir. So which one is it? Finished or NOT finished?

    A: No contradiction there. Specs on test server are not final, and can be set to any value. Release version may differ greatly.

  192. Very many stupid comments. They HAVEN'T nerfed Maus.

    In 6.4 there was a bug in Maus's collision model - front upper-truck piece of armor could be easyly penetrated WITH damage. As a temp fix for this bug - Maus got +400hp. Now bug is fixed, moreover, Maus got shielded hull (often 203' HE Shell does no damage). So - after fixing the bug - they removed extra hp. Why are you screaming?

    If its so, then why didn't they specify this? in the patch notes? Was it not important?
