And where is mud and dirt, snowing, windy, watter flowing on bonnet all the things that tank People love ?

"Hi everyone welcome on 9.17 update, we add 20 OP tanks, bye bye! "

[Ridiflous]

Shell penetration mechanics changed. In one term: Removing the only frontal turret weakspot on IS-3 making it even more OP

[MegaProize]

IS-3 don't have now ANY weakspots on front. "FAIR"

[Shinji_OnO]

So now all the french heavies will be usless, gj WG again -_-
P.S. FIX THE FREAKING MATCHMAKING

[oliverbauer]

i think the sweden will be overpowerd :)

[itsalie]

Basically, the Swedes are op, the overwatch means auto bounce on anything. A 183 mm can even bounce a Scorpion now.

[nightmare]

can't wait for the Swedish TD. I really like the way they are design on tier 8 - 10. why not buff some other premiums? I feel like the super Pershing need a bit more horse power.

IS not having a front weak spot will be the end of me. I always come up against it in my lower tiers and could never outrun his turret traverse. All other update info looked very good. Thanks again.

What I *actually* want implemented in World Of Tank's
1) Modified match making (battle tier is okay, but add the players' amount of battles or the service record)
2) Water terrain to distinguish fire
3) An "I overturned my tank" command
4) An option to help allied over turned tanks to turn back on top (ie, tow ropes like that in WarThunder)
5) More maps and not reskin maps (ie, Not Himmels and Winter Himmels)
6) At least a modified version of the old removed maps to be brought back
7) Bring back tank companies (or male the team battles accessable to tier 6 (4-6 tiers) so that newer players can enjoy an alternate battle game mode)
8) Bring back domination and make it accessable to at least tier 8 (or better 6 as I mentioned)
9) Remove most of the invisible wall (I don't care, every tanks their own responsibility, I just want your promise about those E100s going to places where we couldn't go in previous patches before the physics update)


Troll request
Make a premium M3 Lee in tier 3 but it uses the turret and 37mm instead.

[nihilist]

if you aren't doing the overmatch change then buff the is4 as that is crap at sidescraping because of weak spots yet its supposed to be good at sidescraping. if ever you do bring in the overmatch change rule then buff the 183 which is woeful now with accuracy aim and no armor on it whatsoever, it's supposed to be the armored version of the shitbarn yet it cant deflect anything when going backwards and angled even.

[PichKhun]

The Swede's TD line seems op. With good camo, bia, and the new suspension system, it can be dominating. I can already imagine how experience sniper play them. :/

[tobiasksoderholm]

Finally! I've been waiting for so long for this to come out in a very long time because I am also Swedish.

[Dumlen]

So, love for the wz 111 lower plate.. what about the 112?

[algirdasnausedas]

Interesting update (no sarcasm), but what actually causes problems isn't fixed... when you research new vehicle and have stock gun and crew with maximum 90% you get 2 tiers higher enemies with max gun and crew training... such things need to be considered more I think

[grantharrison]

the swedish line looks bad ass. I'm so happy to see my race's tech line be treated so well.

[epic]

So with the new swedish tanks, there is no point in playing the t20 now that there is the leo, and both the other 2 tier 10 autoloaders are effectively obsolete? That 'Totally' sounds awesome. Also, changing game mechanics completely for some tank destroyers which will completely change the balance of other tanks, and make some obsolete again? I really can't say i'm looking forward to this update

[CasperKersten]

Buffs to premium vehicles; Pay2win, you mean...

[JosephSco]

Tier 8, 9 and 10 heavies look overpowered. Low tanks with autoloaders, good gun depression and strong turret armour yeah that will be fun to play against!

[RavenShugo]

Lowe will be an armored tank finally??? Sweet! Before it was too slow to get anywhere and had armor, that can be penned frontaly by almost anyone, so I was waiting for them to give it better power, or better armor))
