Thanks for news. Indeed, it's pretty :3 Q1: Gun selection? Possibly 76 mm M1A1 and 105mm SPH? Q2: About patch 0.6.7. Will M103 make it to this patch or we're waiting for 0.7.0
Yeah... nearly all american tanks look quite like clones of each other...
That happens if you want to make nearly 30 tanks from one state, that did only realy produce arround 10 of them... Which where also nearly all from the same engineering faction XD
In this point there was a lot more science and economical spread in germany and russia! ;)
lemme get one thing straight , should we all play soviet tanks only because im sure most players agree with me that the soviet tanks in this game even after this new patch seem to be superior to all the other tanks , can you please advise ?
Q1:When will IS-4 be changed as tier X? Q2:You said that Object 252(IS-6) will be tier 8 premium? It will come with IS-4 change or earlyer because it is a tier 8 premium now? O_O Please answer :)

A1: Not soon, might even happen at the beginning of 2012. A2: Approx the same time.
Nice to see some more Light Tanks. But really sad, that u see in T6+ nearly only Heavy Tanks, even though the normal Battles were much more between Medium Tanks like T-34 vs. PzIV, Panther vs. T-34-85 etc pp.
Would be nice to see much more Mediums than Heavys in a normal Battle, but the Mediums arent attractive enough for it. Btw it seems a bit strange, that u have Tier X Heavy Tanks, but no Tier X Mediums, even though Mediums are the much more common tanks in the following cold war. A Tier X with Leopard I and T-54 or something like that would be nice.
Overlord if is-4 is changed to X next year, will you then nerf it to be equal to rest IX tanks? Think you said once it wouldnt be nerfed because changed would be done soon.
Seriously, when is the M103 and T110 going to be released particularly the M103? How long will you keep the US having the worst Tier 9 heavy tank all the while not giving it any hot fix buffs to alleviate some of its problems?
Regarding the American news today, I'd like to ask something about the US premium Mk. VIII Liberty/Anglo American/International tank. Like: Is it (still) coming soon and is there already anything to say about its stats? Just becouse i like the idea of this landship. :p And it is probably one of the oldest tanks ingame including the FT17. Tanks in forward! Best regards.
A bit off topic, but could you point me in the direction of more information on some of the new Russian tanks? (ST-I, KV-4). Can be in Cyrillic. My Google-Fu isn't up to the job of getting pictures or specs on them :(.

Q3: Does this mean the KV split will be happening around the same early 2012 time frame?
I read somewhere that infantry was going to be introduced at some point.. Something to use the machineguns for.. Any idea when and can one play infantry or are they just NPC`s
Question: Do you plane any discount on gold or tank price?? Its verry important for many players. We dont know do we must wait to 12 August for any other news or we can get some nice info about 1st anniversary today or tomorrow? Think, if someone must spend 3,5kk money for Tier IX tanks and then, at anniversary day You guys make 50% discount or some tanks or gold discount... Pls respond - I dont know what to do:P....
I had elite Panther II and elite Tiger II. Now I am able to research 88 L100/ E-75. But the vehicles r still elite, so I am also able to convert any experience gained. Is that supposed to be like that?
Do you plan to adjust the IS4 with a slight nerf in 6.7, since its movement to Tier X takes place in about seven months? You may know that the IS-4 is "borderline OP" for Tier IX.
Q1: Have you managed to add M41 Walker Bulldog after it? I would be a great tier 7 light, something to face french one. Q2: How much exp it wil take to get it? (from M5 Stuart, I suppose)
Overlord, why do you even allow comments in your blog if you don't answer them? You could easily prevent anyone from commenting. That way you wouldn't have to look at all the annoying complainers complaining. Or hey, let's say you like having praise, but hate having to look at all those people asking pertinent questions. Just make sure people have to register to comment on your blog. That way you can keep the commentators that verbally fellate you without letting any complainers in to ruin your day.
I would like to know what is happening with M103/T110 as well. They were announced long time ago, screens of completed models posted, yet the release is postponed every time. Do they at least have some priority in release schedule?
Or rather, in the comments to that blogpost. Search my name and you can find them. I don't of course expect you to make these changes - but I think they are worthwhile suggestions.
I think you have mentioned earlier, that over the new tiers of light tanks you will completely rethink the mechanism of the light tanks. Has this been done? If yes, what are the main changes to be expected? Will the light tanks viable in high / end tier battles, maybe even in Clan Wars?
Q: Can you give us an update for the T34 to premium switch and the introduction of the M103 as new US Tier 9 Heavy? Is this scheduled for 6.7 or later?
Do you have preliminary notes for the 6.7 patch? or a general idea of when it might happen? Just want to know if its gonna be weeks or months away, if you can't give something more solid.
Also THANK YOU for 6.6... I'm loving the new German tree. =)
" Anonymous said... (...) Or close the fac*** blog, bicause its useles u dont answer the ather people questions," --------------- What the heck is this? You have no guts to reveal your nickname, yet you're insolent enough to write such thing?
Guys, this is Overlords blog and we can't force him to do anything. We can politely ask and wait. If he is not answering that mean he can't or don't know. Btw. Maybe Overlord is developer but he is not responsible for delays. So being that rude won't change a thing. Or he will simply close this blog and stop posting useful infos.
Geez..everywhere those annoying brats hiding behind "Anonymous". Grow up balls, guys.
As much as I have to thank the devs for the 6.6 upgrade will the hit box's on the E75/E100 be sorted in 6.7? At present the E75 cannot compete with their peers on nearly equal terms (IS4, VK45 etc) In fact it is difficult to face even tier 8 Heavies at the moment.
Don't get me wrong I like the tanks I just wanted to ask the question!
Please do not give calendar for anything coming anytime anywhere.
The fact that M103 has been postponed to end of year is utterly frustrating. The spent free xp grinding the T34 in time for proposed patch 0.6.7 M103 have been a waste. And everyone bitching and moaning about an E75 should get their behind into a T34 and have a nice cup of STFU.
Simple as that: If you have no clue about a certain feature actually making it for a certain patch, simply DO NOT announce it. If you do, however, and pull something like this M103-garbage, you seem illegitimate at best, for these practices look like money-making by feeding customers promises that generate you cash which they spend on false assumptions.
So far I have been a pretty happy tanker in your game, but seriously, this is no way to communicate with your community.
Woah, wait, I thought the M103 was already done? Why is it suddenly so far away? If we're really going to be waiting that long, can you PLEASE give the T34 something to compensate in the meantime?
"Anonymous said... So how bout that kv switch? August 11, 2011 8:51 PM "
well overlord answered, that is-4 will become tier X in early 2012, so I guess the kv split will be with the same update the heavy line will be majorly mixed up x)
I for on am looking forward for the chaffee and the french tree sometime in the future
@overlord can you tell us about the french release tech tree? I saw arties, I saw light/medium-line and the heavy line, but my question is: Q: will the TD line come later, as it was with the US tech tree?
Wow... Was *NOT* expecting new American heavies to be a "maybe end of year" thing... That is very disappointing.
Oh well, be cheaper for me as now there is no need to spend cash to convert the 353,000 in free exp I have. If you're in no rush to update the US heavy tree, I'm in no rush to spend cash to help me get there.
I'm in no mood to pay anymore money on this game period since the 6.6 update. The e series is exactly opposite what was promised. Slow, weak armor and more of their rounds bouncing than a m5. I rammed a 1% lowe with my 75 and it lived. I bounced off a kv1s with a 105 round while getting 1 shotted by a is7. I watched a 100 try to RUN from that same is7. What a joke. Don't want to hear "you don't know how to drive the 75". I have NEVER bounced a kv1s with my tiger2. I have had multiple non-assist seven kill matches with the tiger 2. Wiltst the Russian line has UFO hulls with modern day naval guns.
IMO this should be a T4 tank as per normal you give a US tank to much credit. Just proves what we all know about how afraid of the US the Russian's are.
m103 появится вместе с т110. Игровая модель m103 готова, а т110 еще нет. Патч будет за номером 6.7 если BigWorld не успеет внести правки в движок игры. Инфа от разработчиков с русского форума.

A: Олень, Оверлорд уже писал это отвечая на вопросы в комментариях к другим темам.
Overlord said... A: There is a chance that M103 & T110 will be added by the end of this year. That's the most accurate timeline I can give.
Does that mean the end of the year is the earlyest date or does it mean it could delayed to the end of the year. So the release with 6.7 is definately canceled?
Replacing my Stuart with the Chafee? NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I love my Stewie. I have a crew training camoflage and I love sitting in bushes and taking shots at fatass heavy tanks with the 75mm. Once I elite her, she will definitely have a permanent place in my garage.
IMO this should be a T4 tank as per normal you give a US tank to much credit.
why should it be a t4? I think t5 light tanks aren't that bad of an idea heck, french get a t7 light tank also: if the chaffee is better armored than m5 (which I guess) and just as fast, it'd be a better support than m5 also, I guess the flatter profile will be definitely rewarding towards camoflage and evasion of enemy fire
@Overlord few questions on you 1)M24 will probably be a scout. If you will find just a little time and look on both german and russian tank trees-scout tanks (A-20, LT-38NA, Pz III, Leo) are tier IV, so why will M24 be tier 5? Because of 75mm tank gun? It had got trouble to penetrate even T-34/85 in Korean war and M3 Lee has got this weapon in tier IV (T-28 has got even 85mm gun) so it wont be OPd in tier IV. It has got too much armor? It is same as A20, maybe A32-so what is the reason for moving it to tier 5? Are you really so scared of US tank corps and German Panzerwaffe that you have to nerf it and remove their advantages? 2) Why is majority of russian tanks firing twice or even thrice as fast than in real life and German or US dont? You want examples? Here are two of em-1) IS-2 was able to shoot 2-3 rounds per minute-In game? 4-5,56 2) KV-2 (1 round per minute in real life and in game 2,75)
3) Did you noticed that russian tanks are nerfed only once or twice (and only symbolically-50 hp on IS-7-that is soooo much! oh wait-Maus nerfed by 400 hp) but american and german are pre-nerfed and then-if they are better than USSR are nerfed again?
4) Please stop telling us that you need more skill to play some tanks-if you think bout it you will see that it means-It is bad tank.
5)Why wont you change JTs armor characteristics on 125/80/80? This could be much more real than 250mm front, which actually doesnt bounce much shellsfrom tier 8+?
How much will the chaffee cost in credits and XP/research? The chaffee will replace my m5 stuart can I go directly from the M5 stuart to the chaffee if I have the credits and etc to get it. Or will I have to go throught the M7 again? Please say I won't have to.
I really lost the fun in playing wot. Got myself t2 tanks with 100% crew and other stuff and these are the only games i still like. In hight tiers (esp. americans i have the feeling) u grind to the next tank just to be even more dissapointed than u where by ur last tank. Really no fun.
Any clues about stats, armor, guns?
ReplyDeleteSexy beast <3
ReplyDeleteWhat's that other tank on its right ?
ReplyDelete"introduced into the game in 6.7 update"
ReplyDeleteSo there will be 6.7 patch after 6.6 not 7.0 immediately :)

ReplyDeleteSome more Information:
ReplyDeletehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M24_Chaffee
since it was used in 1944 and was still used in Korea, it could become one of the best scouts. Till then, I'll use my Leo.
Thanks for news. Indeed, it's pretty :3

ReplyDeleteseems to me like it would be a heavier gunned Leopard..

ReplyDeleteБудет сразу 0.7.0
A: Really? :)
french tanks come 7.0 patch
ReplyDeleteoverlord 6.7 to coming t110 and m103 ?=
cool, looking foward to this. Hopefully they can take a few hits before they are tracked and stailed :P
ReplyDeleteIt will get 75mm Gun M6 gun as stock one and smth better for a top one.
ReplyDeletelemme get one thing straight , should we all play soviet tanks only because im sure most players agree with me that the soviet tanks in this game even after this new patch seem to be superior to all the other tanks , can you please advise ?
ReplyDeleteQ: French tank tree still scheduled for 0.6.7?
ReplyDeleteA: French vehicles were not scheduled for 6.7. They will be added later in autumn.
Q:T110 and M103 what patch to coming???
ReplyDeleteOverlord...
ReplyDeleteQ1:When will IS-4 be changed as tier X?
Q2:You said that Object 252(IS-6) will be tier 8 premium? It will come with IS-4 change or earlyer because it is a tier 8 premium now? O_O
Please answer :)
That 25mm armor is not too much compared to the Vk2801's 80mm.
ReplyDeleteQ1:When will IS-4 be changed as tier X?
ReplyDeleteQ2:You said that Object 252(IS-6) will be tier 8 premium? It will come with IS-4 change or earlyer because it is a tier 8 premium now? O_O
Please answer :)
A1: Not soon, might even happen at the beginning of 2012.
A2: Approx the same time.
What about M103, it was supposed to be introduced in 0.6.7
ReplyDeleteIs that changed also?
Non-russian tanks are NOT nerfed, the developers are just trying to make the game realistic, not all-tanks-are-equally-good. :)
ReplyDeleteWill the russian heavy line or the american heavy line be changed in 6.7?
ReplyDeleteNice to see some more Light Tanks. But really sad, that u see in T6+ nearly only Heavy Tanks, even though the normal Battles were much more between Medium Tanks like T-34 vs. PzIV, Panther vs. T-34-85 etc pp.
ReplyDeleteWould be nice to see much more Mediums than Heavys in a normal Battle, but the Mediums arent attractive enough for it. Btw it seems a bit strange, that u have Tier X Heavy Tanks, but no Tier X Mediums, even though Mediums are the much more common tanks in the following cold war. A Tier X with Leopard I and T-54 or something like that would be nice.
Overlord if is-4 is changed to X next year, will you then nerf it to be equal to rest IX tanks?
ReplyDeleteThink you said once it wouldnt be nerfed because changed would be done soon.
Seriously, when is the M103 and T110 going to be released particularly the M103? How long will you keep the US having the worst Tier 9 heavy tank all the while not giving it any hot fix buffs to alleviate some of its problems?
ReplyDeleteWhen can we read preliminary patch notes for 6.7?
ReplyDeleteI would like to know about the plans for M103 as well, any answer would be greatly appreciated.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the American news today, I'd like to ask something about the US premium Mk. VIII Liberty/Anglo American/International tank. Like: Is it (still) coming soon and is there already anything to say about its stats? Just becouse i like the idea of this landship. :p And it is probably one of the oldest tanks ingame including the FT17. Tanks in forward! Best regards.
ReplyDeleteSo is it possible that this tank has the same top gun as the Easy 8 since it would be in top tier games very often?
ReplyDeleteA bit off topic, but could you point me in the direction of more information on some of the new Russian tanks? (ST-I, KV-4). Can be in Cyrillic. My Google-Fu isn't up to the job of getting pictures or specs on them :(.
ReplyDeleteDear Overlord,
ReplyDeleteSo T110 and M103 will delay to 2012 too....?
Q1:When will IS-4 be changed as tier X?
ReplyDeleteQ2:You said that Object 252(IS-6) will be tier 8 premium? It will come with IS-4 change or earlyer because it is a tier 8 premium now? O_O

ReplyDeletelooking new heavy tank for me
I read somewhere that infantry was going to be introduced at some point.. Something to use the machineguns for.. Any idea when and can one play infantry or are they just NPC`s
ReplyDeleteMy question to Overlord (pls respond)
ReplyDeleteQuestion:
Do you plane any discount on gold or tank price?? Its verry important for many players. We dont know do we must wait to 12 August for any other news or we can get some nice info about 1st anniversary today or tomorrow? Think, if someone must spend 3,5kk money for Tier IX tanks and then, at anniversary day You guys make 50% discount or some tanks or gold discount... Pls respond - I dont know what to do:P....
why overlord always skip the t34 - m103 questions?
ReplyDeleteA thing about the patch:
ReplyDeleteI had elite Panther II and elite Tiger II. Now I am able to research 88 L100/ E-75. But the vehicles r still elite, so I am also able to convert any experience gained. Is that supposed to be like that?
Q: why overlord always skip the t34 - m103 questions?
ReplyDeletebecause he hate non russian tanks
Now that's a cute little machine. Will be getting it when it gets released. =D
ReplyDeleteFor another US related question though, we'll we be seeing pics of the M103 and/or T110 anytime soon?
@above poster:
He answered the question on French tanks though
Here hoping for a US update too ..
ReplyDeletePlaying US now sucks .. big time!
sweet little tank!
ReplyDelete@General_Jack_T_Ripper "But the vehicles r still elite, so I am also able to convert any experience gained. Is that supposed to be like that?"
ReplyDeleteI suppose yes cause had same with Pz38 some patches ago.
@"what tank standing near m24 in screanshot n.3
looking new heavy tank for me"
It got 6 wheels so it means that should be Patton (T32 and M103 - 7 wheels).
@Chaffe
What a beauty! I hope it will be fast and manevourable with great range, excellent for spotting and arty rushes.
Overlord, are you considering a 76mm M32 for the Chaffee? :D? Maybe a 90mm derpgun (Danish modification)?
ReplyDelete@Overlord
ReplyDeleteDo you plan to adjust the IS4 with a slight nerf in 6.7, since its movement to Tier X takes place in about seven months? You may know that the IS-4 is "borderline OP" for Tier IX.
Tier IX:
IS-4 >> E-75 > VK4502 B > T34
Thanks.
Another tank driver hoping to see the Tier IX/X US Heavy update in 0.67. Looking forward to Overlord's answer.
ReplyDeleteMaus loses rate of fire and 400 health? Crippled it
ReplyDeleteT-30 loses sniping accuracy and is forced to move closer to hit targets? Crippled it
IS7 loses... 50 hp? SAME TANK HERE
I dont want new tier-less-than-10 tanks. I want the ones I have to stop getting nerfed :(!!
Overlord why u dont answer the M103/T110 qeustions ?
ReplyDeleteU will be punished if answer the questiuon?
If u dont then say somting abaut it :P
Or u afraid ? :D
omg we dont need tier5 scout or second german heavy tank line, we need balanced american heavy
ReplyDeleteTime for some love for the US heavies! :-)
ReplyDeleteSo are we going to see the M41 Walker Bulldog? It fits the envelope as development started in 1947.
ReplyDeleteIs VK2801 coming in the patch too? How about T-50, T-50-2, T-60, T-70 and T-80?
ReplyDeleteWhat about T34 change to premium and new american T9 HV ? Just +/- answer please before even this thread will become nerf/buff spamfest.
ReplyDeleteIs american tank so its gonna be 125health equipped with mighty 6mm ion-cannon.
ReplyDeletesincerely yours : CAPTAIN AMERICA

ReplyDeleteTwo questions Mr. Overlord:
ReplyDeleteQ1. Will the VK2801, Pz.I, and Pz.I Ausf. C be included in Patch 6.7?
Q2. When will the KV/KV-3 movement happen?
when will second line germany TDs come?
ReplyDeletepls Overload do not ignorate this question

@UP
ReplyDeleteIt's not a bug. This is how it's made in reality.
M103 is coming 6.7
ReplyDeleteT110 is coming with the 2nd US TD tree (after the russian heavy balance)
Overlord I know this is not the right place to ask but have you got any idea when will the retail version hit the stores here in Europe?
ReplyDeleteQ1: Have you managed to add M41 Walker Bulldog after it? I would be a great tier 7 light, something to face french one.
ReplyDeleteQ2: How much exp it wil take to get it? (from M5 Stuart, I suppose)
Overlord did the crew death got changed in some way with the new patch?
ReplyDeletei have experience alot more crew deaths, even asked arround and can confirm it from a good ammount of people
Will the crew setup be that which is it IRL?

ReplyDeleteI would like to know what is happening with M103/T110 as well. They were announced long time ago, screens of completed models posted, yet the release is postponed every time. Do they at least have some priority in release schedule?
ReplyDeletePlease, please tell us about the schedule of T110 and M103......
ReplyDeleteI just feel I am being deceived .....
at begin,you said we will have at least M103 at 6.6, and we got none
and at 6.5, I asked you guys and you said it will be on the september, and now we see nothing
and this make me very disappointed, and you just ignore all the question about M103 and T110 >:(
Quote: "Overlord, why do you even allow comments in your blog if you don't answer them? ..."
ReplyDeleteI agree with the whole post. Ok, I can understand that you (Overlord) are busy, but then cut down the number of silly comments by requiring a login.
BTW: in the blogpost "Release of v.6.6 Update Is Scheduled for August 10" I make some suggestions you might consider for future updates.
Or rather, in the comments to that blogpost. Search my name and you can find them. I don't of course expect you to make these changes - but I think they are worthwhile suggestions.
ReplyDeleteWhile the Chaffee is indeed a beaut, I think many of us are more keen on news and pics of the much anticipated (and delayed) M103 & T110.
ReplyDeleteThrow us a bone here, Overlord. Please?
Hi Overlord!
ReplyDeleteI think you have mentioned earlier, that over the new tiers of light tanks you will completely rethink the mechanism of the light tanks. Has this been done? If yes, what are the main changes to be expected? Will the light tanks viable in high / end tier battles, maybe even in Clan Wars?
Thanks

Hi Overlord.
ReplyDeleteQ: Can you give us an update for the T34 to premium switch and the introduction of the M103 as new US Tier 9 Heavy? Is this scheduled for 6.7 or later?

ReplyDeleteA: There is a chance that M103 & T110 will be added by the end of this year. That's the most accurate timeline I can give.
Q: Overlord I know this is not the right place to ask but have you got any idea when will the retail version hit the stores here in Europe?
ReplyDeleteA: Nope, can't say for sure atm.
As much as I have to thank the devs for the 6.6 upgrade will the hit box's on the E75/E100 be sorted in 6.7? At present the E75 cannot compete with their peers on nearly equal terms (IS4, VK45 etc) In fact it is difficult to face even tier 8 Heavies at the moment.
ReplyDeleteDon't get me wrong I like the tanks I just wanted to ask the question!
End of this year? Are you kidding? To me it sounded like the M103 is almost finished since it was scheduled for 6.6....
ReplyDeleteQ1, will be the stug E-100 introduce this year?
ReplyDeleteQ2, when will come french tanks?
Overlord can you give to us a sort of calendar of upcoming patches? Thanks
ReplyDeletePlease do not give calendar for anything coming anytime anywhere.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that M103 has been postponed to end of year is utterly frustrating. The spent free xp grinding the T34 in time for proposed patch 0.6.7 M103 have been a waste.
And everyone bitching and moaning about an E75 should get their behind into a T34 and have a nice cup of STFU.
Simple as that:
If you have no clue about a certain feature actually making it for a certain patch, simply DO NOT announce it. If you do, however, and pull something like this M103-garbage, you seem illegitimate at best, for these practices look like money-making by feeding customers promises that generate you cash which they spend on false assumptions.
So far I have been a pretty happy tanker in your game, but seriously, this is no way to communicate with your community.
what about companies 120 or 150pts?
ReplyDeleteWoah, wait, I thought the M103 was already done? Why is it suddenly so far away? If we're really going to be waiting that long, can you PLEASE give the T34 something to compensate in the meantime?
ReplyDeleteFor people wondering about that other tank in third picture - it's ordinary M46 Patton, just with stock turret.
ReplyDeleteReally? Delaying the M103 AGAIN? That's just great, we will be stuck with the POS T34 for what, 3 more months then?
ReplyDeleteSo how bout that kv switch?

August 11, 2011 8:51 PM "
well overlord answered, that is-4 will become tier X in early 2012, so I guess the kv split will be with the same update
the heavy line will be majorly mixed up x)
I for on am looking forward for the chaffee and the french tree sometime in the future
@overlord
can you tell us about the french release tech tree?
I saw arties, I saw light/medium-line and the heavy line, but my question is:
Q: will the TD line come later, as it was with the US tech tree?
Wow... Was *NOT* expecting new American heavies to be a "maybe end of year" thing... That is very disappointing.
ReplyDeleteOh well, be cheaper for me as now there is no need to spend cash to convert the 353,000 in free exp I have. If you're in no rush to update the US heavy tree, I'm in no rush to spend cash to help me get there.

I'm in no mood to pay anymore money on this game period since the 6.6 update. The e series is exactly opposite what was promised. Slow, weak armor and more of their rounds bouncing than a m5. I rammed a 1% lowe with my 75 and it lived. I bounced off a kv1s with a 105 round while getting 1 shotted by a is7. I watched a 100 try to RUN from that same is7. What a joke. Don't want to hear "you don't know how to drive the 75". I have NEVER bounced a kv1s with my tiger2. I have had multiple non-assist seven kill matches with the tiger 2. Wiltst the Russian line has UFO hulls with modern day naval guns.
ReplyDeleteThese tier 5 light premium tanks should cost 1500 gold each!
ReplyDeleteMy ausf b just eats 75s all day, so much so he's gotten quite sluggisg. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat said the mudflaps remind me of the poor old maus from beta, although WG seems to not hotfix the game those are seriously crippling the tank.
On topic if you bring the scouts I will bring the gold.
If anything .. US heavies should get a massive update ..
ReplyDeletecute little m24 your coming home with me!
ReplyDeleteOverlord,
ReplyDeletePlease update the indevelopment page of the website.
thanks
IMO this should be a T4 tank as per normal you give a US tank to much credit. Just proves what we all know about how afraid of the US the Russian's are.
ReplyDeleteThe M24 Chaffee was intended to replace the aging and obsolete Light Tank M5 (Stuart) a T4 tank
ReplyDeleteHow about fixing US Heavy T32 gun and money income..
ReplyDeletem103 появится вместе с т110. Игровая модель m103 готова, а т110 еще нет. Патч будет за номером 6.7 если BigWorld не успеет внести правки в движок игры. Инфа от разработчиков с русского форума.

Does that mean the end of the year is the earlyest date or does it mean it could delayed to the end of the year. So the release with 6.7 is definately canceled?
Replacing my Stuart with the Chafee? NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love my Stewie. I have a crew training camoflage and I love sitting in bushes and taking shots at fatass heavy tanks with the 75mm. Once I elite her, she will definitely have a permanent place in my garage.

why should it be a t4?
I think t5 light tanks aren't that bad of an idea
heck, french get a t7 light tank
also: if the chaffee is better armored than m5 (which I guess) and just as fast, it'd be a better support than m5
also, I guess the flatter profile will be definitely rewarding towards camoflage and evasion of enemy fire
will be available for T1> M2> M3> M5> M24?
ReplyDeleteAre there plans for M41? Walker Bulldog? It was developed in 1951..
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful little tank.
ReplyDeleteWill you guys include the M41 Walker Bulldog into the game?
I’m just going to leave this here

ReplyDeletefew questions on you
1)M24 will probably be a scout. If you will find just a little time and look on both german and russian tank trees-scout tanks (A-20, LT-38NA, Pz III, Leo) are tier IV, so why will M24 be tier 5? Because of 75mm tank gun? It had got trouble to penetrate even T-34/85 in Korean war and M3 Lee has got this weapon in tier IV (T-28 has got even 85mm gun) so it wont be OPd in tier IV. It has got too much armor? It is same as A20, maybe A32-so what is the reason for moving it to tier 5? Are you really so scared of US tank corps and German Panzerwaffe that you have to nerf it and remove their advantages?
2) Why is majority of russian tanks firing twice or even thrice as fast than in real life and German or US dont? You want examples? Here are two of em-1) IS-2 was able to shoot 2-3 rounds per minute-In game? 4-5,56 2) KV-2 (1 round per minute in real life and in game 2,75)
3) Did you noticed that russian tanks are nerfed only once or twice (and only symbolically-50 hp on IS-7-that is soooo much! oh wait-Maus nerfed by 400 hp) but american and german are pre-nerfed and then-if they are better than USSR are nerfed again?
4) Please stop telling us that you need more skill to play some tanks-if you think bout it you will see that it means-It is bad tank.
5)Why wont you change JTs armor characteristics on 125/80/80? This could be much more real than 250mm front, which actually doesnt bounce much shellsfrom tier 8+?
what the heck is the guy above me talking about?
ReplyDeletecan anyone make sense of the nonsense he's writing?
No idea-but he must have been pretty angry when he had written this xDDD
ReplyDeleteHow much will the chaffee cost in credits and XP/research? The chaffee will replace my m5 stuart can I go directly from the M5 stuart to the chaffee if I have the credits and etc to get it. Or will I have to go throught the M7 again? Please say I won't have to.
ReplyDeleteI've red pretty much whining here about overpowered soviets. In that case - why is there a number of players on Russian server found of t30?
ReplyDeleteI really lost the fun in playing wot. Got myself t2 tanks with 100% crew and other stuff and these are the only games i still like. In hight tiers (esp. americans i have the feeling) u grind to the next tank just to be even more dissapointed than u where by ur last tank. Really no fun.
