[Infos] Prochaines màj, dernières révélations et fausses rumeurs

[ineeh]

Ces histoires de canon ça me fait penser à un truc.
Ce serait bien un système qui permet de modifier son canon pendant les 30 secondes d'attente sur la map.
Genre on est avec le KV, on voit qu'on tombe sur une map de ville hop on charge le gros canon pas précis mais qui fait bobo, et si on est sur une map de plaine on monte un canon plus précis.
Ils y ont pas pensé les devs à faire ça ?

Il me semble que la question leur a déjà été posée, et ils ont répondu que c'était volontaire, quand tu équipes ton char avec différents modules c'est un coup de dé.

Edit : 7500 gold soit quand même 25 euros au taux d'achat le plus intéressant pour les golds ... y'a que moi que ça fait halluciner ?

[CanardNoir]

Ça fait cher mais c'est du r8 il faut du temps pour débloquer un bestiau pareil. C'est vraiment un investissement si tu veux le débloquer. Je ne suis pas sûr d'être ravi si n'importe qui peut s'en payer un pour 2500 gold.

2 a 3 semaines de grind sans premium, en partant du T1.

[CanardNoir]

2 à 3 semaine ça ne veut rien dire du tout.

Tu pourrais même dire 1 semaine pour quelqu'un qui joue 20H par jour que ça n'aurait pas plus de sens. C'est le nb d'heure qui compte, après que certains ne fassent rien d'autre que jouer à WoT c'est une autre histoire. Perso il m'aura fallu 3 à 4 semaines alors que je joue tous les jours. (ce qui est déjà bcp)

[Noir le Lotus]

C'est surtout cher pour un tank qui, d’après les commentaires sur les serveurs de tests, n'est pas si bien que ça ...

(ce qui est déjà bcp)

Environ une centaine d'heures de jeu en comptant 5 minutes/bataille.

[CanardNoir]

25 euros pour 100 heures de jeu ça ne me pose pas de problème. Si j'avais moins de temps et plus d'argent je me serai pe payé un kv5 perso. (quelqu'un de raisonnable qui joue 2h/jour mettra quand même 1 mois et demi)

[Le Glaude]

Bah après c'est a toi de voir si tu préfère ouvrir ton porte-feuilles ou alors farmer des heures.

M'enfin le principe d'un jeu c'est d'y jouer pour avoir son tank et etre fier de l'avoir acquis a la sueur de son front pour en profiter a sa juste valeur... enfin je crois.

[CanardNoir]

Le principe d'un jeu c'est ce que tu veux. Il y a des gens qui peuvent se dire qu'ils n'ont pas que ça à foutre de grinder 100 heure devant un écran au lieu d'aller profiter du beau temps ou de leur copine/femme/enfants... enfin je crois.

[Le Glaude]

Ben c'est un peu comme si t'achetais un RPG, tu lance une partie, tu quitte, t'ouvre le menu DLC et la tu payes 25euros pour que toutes les quêtes soient finies, le jeu a 100% avec toutes les armes et l'histoire principales faite. Moi je vois pas l’intérêt, mais comme tu dis chacun son truc.

[CanardNoir]

Ouai enfin t'as comparaison est bancale mais ça ne vaut pas le coup de continuer. C'est drôle comme certains semblent fermés quand il s'agit d'envisager un jeu différemment.

Vive le grind donc! \o/

[ineeh]

Sur le forum du serveur européen, Overlourd vient de dire qu'ils prévoyaient une arrivée probable du 0.6.4 sur le serveur russe la semaine prochaine. Et après seulement ils décideront de la date d'arrivée sur les 2 autres serveurs. ça nous laisse encore bien le temps de profiter de ces chers tanks romuliens

[Le Glaude]

Ouai enfin t'as comparaison est bancale mais ça ne vaut pas le coup de continuer. C'est drôle comme certains semblent fermés quand il s'agit d'envisager un jeu différemment.

Vive le grind donc! \o/

Donc sous prétexte que je vois le fait de profiter d'un jeu différemment de toi, je suis fermé d'esprit ? J'ai pas le droit d'avoir mon avis sur la chose ? Ah. Mokay pourquoi pas.

[keulz]

Le principe d'un jeu c'est ce que tu veux. Il y a des gens qui peuvent se dire qu'ils n'ont pas que ça à foutre de grinder 100 heure devant un écran au lieu d'aller profiter du beau temps

Et dieu inventa l'ordinateur portable.

Le soucis, c'est qu'on est censé prendre du plaisir à jouer au jeu.
En achetant directement tout le contenu terminé, tu va jouer 5/6 parties avec, puis tu va te lasser en voyant qu'il n'est pas si génial que ca ...

[Wannamama]

[Carpette]

Ils ont corrigé le tir ce coup la, y'a pas de nation prédominante au niveau des tank représentés (ou alors faut vraiment se faire chier à compter).

Par contre, j'ai l'impression que notre ami after effect est passé par la, par ce que leur moteur 3D et leurs couleurs sont bien plus joli sur leur vidéo que ce que j'ai sur mon écran quand je joue :D

[fenrhir]

Et, d'un autre côté, leur flotte est mal fichue (même pas d'effet quand les tanks entrent/bougent dedans, on dirait une patinoire de verre, regardez bien). Mais bon, on s'en fout un peu :P

Par contre c'est un trailer mensonger : on n'aura jamais autant d'action en bataille simple Faudrait d'autres modes de jeu pour ça.

[Wannamama]

The 0.6.4 patch is indeed being released on the RU server today, if everything goes as planned. The release moment for the EU server is dependant on the performance of the patch on the RU server. As always the Devs will take a few days to monitor the patch before releasing it to the EU and NA servers.

No official moment has been announced, but I expect the patch to hit the EU server not earlier than next week, or possibly the week after that. It's up to Overlord or Mediahead to announce the definitive date though. I am as much in anticipation of that anouncement as you are :Smile-playing:

- Now when leveling the crew (on an elite tank with marked “Rapid crew training”) – bonus experience received for the crew is given to the least experienced crew member.

Vehicles and balance. General:
- Added new vehicles: premium heavy Lowe and KV-5, KV-13 and Pz38NA, tier 8 SPGs: Object 261, GW-E serie, T-92.
- Fixed hitboxes for the following tanks: IS-7, Jagdpanther, Tiger, Tiger II, VK4502, Ferdinand, Jagdtiger, Panther II, M41, T2 Med.
- Fixed minor inaccuracies in hitboxes of several tanks.
- Fixed a number of model and texture bugs.
- Added new gun 3d models to the following tanks: VK4502, Ferdinand, Tiger II, Jagdtiger.
- Readjusted visibility parameters of all vehicles while standing still and on the move.
- Readjusted visibility of all guns when firing.
- Readjusted maximum range of fire for all shells.
- Readjust shell velocity for all shells: fixed errors, improved gameplay balance.
- Introduced detailed damage mechanics for tracks. Reworked durability of tracks and repair time for all vehicles.
- Increased match-making value for tier 9 medium tanks.

Battle mechanics:
- Added extra checkpoints on tank models for more accurate visibility checks.
- Readjusted visibility calculation for multiple bushes if they are within 15m range away from the vehicle.
- Engine now catches fire, if is has received certain fixed amount of damage, which is the same for all vehicles. The purpose is to reduce the ability of low-tier automatic guns to cause engine fire.
- Changed fuel tanks fire mechanics. It catches fire when it is destroyed now. It can’t be put on fire after a regular hit.
- Changed mechanics of "Fill tanks with CO2" equipment, now it increases durability of fuel tank.
- Changed firefighting mechanic: fire strength decreases with each second. The exact value differs from vehicle to vehicle and is multiplied by average crew firefighting skill. As soon as fire strength reaches zero (and the vehicle is not destroyed), the fire is put out.
- Changed effect for credit and gold first aid kits, repair kits and fire extinguishers:
Credit repair kit will fix 1 chosen damaged module until the end of battle. Gold will repair all currently damaged modules until the end of battle.
You can put both repair kits on the same tank together.
First aid kits work similar to repair kits.
Credit fire extinguisher will extinguish fire immediately after you manually activate it – by pressing its button ingame.
Gold fire extinguisher will automatically extinguish fire 0.5 seconds after tank catches fire and will reduce chance of catching fire by 10%.
- "Extra combat rations", "Case of cola", "Chocolate" consumables are now automatically activated at the beginning of the battle.
- "Removed speed governor" equipment now damages the engine 50% faster.

Bon, les gros changements ingame :
- le 704 sera moins rapide, mais +250HP.
- bon nerf des T29 et T32 : le canon de 105 passe à 6 tirs/min vent dans le dos, et 320 dmg... De plus les heavies ricains ont moins de débattement vertical vers le bas...
- normalement, up des chars teutons T7+ : on a bouché les trous des mantelets de canon, et correction des hitboxes sur les gros culs. Beaucoup d'ajustement sur la vitesse de tir des canons (parfois en bien, parfois en moins bien).
- nouvelles maps et nouveaux tanks. Kamparin, pardon, Komarin est modifiée : des bâtiments sur l'ilot central, seuls les T5+ peuvent défoncer les protections antichars qui en coupent l'accès.
- le feu fonctionne différemment. En gros, on brûlera moins facilement, moins tout court, et le petit con en Léo HE pourra plus foutre le feu à un KT au 215ème obus tiré. Valmon va être content. Surtout qu'un extincteur éteint le feu à 100%.
- décheniller fonctionne différemment. Il faut viser les roues d'entrainement à l'avant/arrière d'une chenille (selon les hitboxes, entre 1/4 et 1/3 de la longeur à l'avant, autant à l'arrière), le reste abîme les chenilles, sans les casser.
- 1ère version des épaves déplaçables (en gros, pousser *lentement* une épave plus petite - j'en sais pas plus).

Beaucoup de changement hors jeu, genre le garage : une étoile pour montrer les chars qui n'ont pas encore eu l'xp *2, des options pour virer les fumées et traces de chenilles qui font ramer, des corrections de bugs graphiques, des améliorations d'ui.
Grosse amélioration de la minimap et des icones : on peut choisir d'afficher les icônes, tiers, etc. Un joueur qui a TK trop souvent apparait en bleu.
On peut démonter l'équipement non démontable (sic) pour 10 or/pièce.

Si je lis bien, le T29 tirera plus vite avec le 105 (passe de 5 à 6 coups/min), mais le T32 tirera moins (sauf avec la 2è tourelle où on passe de 6.4 à 6.32, la différence est minime). Par contre les dégâts diminuent.

L'IS-3 reçoit un joli coup de boost: plus de PVs, plus rapide. ça veut dire quoi Increased passability for top tracks by 5% ?

Baisse des Pvs et des cadences de tir sur les artys, nouveau nerf ou correction mineure ?

- The icon of the player’s tank who has killed several allies turns blue.

On pourra les tuer sans soucis ?

Non, ça passe de 6.38 à 6.32.

C'est sur la première tourelle qu'il y a 6.4...

On pourra les tuer sans soucis ?

Oui.

Tu me fais penser à un crétin croisé hier sur Malinovka. Pendant le décompte, il annonce qu'il est un team killer, et a apparemment touché un équipier dans les 1è minutes (exprès ou pas je ne saurais dire). Il a alors été promptement éliminé et n'a pas arrêté de se plaindre ensuite qu'il ne faisait que plaisanter et ne méritait pas ce qui lui est arrivé.

Je ne comprends pas où tu veux en venir avec le quote de cowboy.

[Shurin]

Un joueur qui a TK trop souvent apparait en bleu.

C'est à dire?
Dans une partie ou en général?
En fonction de son nombre de tué et du nombre de TK, un genre de ratio?

[Flonflon]

Le blindage inférieur avant du KT qui passe de 150mm à 120mm sonne comme une très mauvaise blague ... Ah oui, +5mm sur la tourelle ... youpie !
