  2. Wohoo! Can't wait to test these tanks :D (And can't wait to see how well the old VK3002(DB) works now)

    1. It's unchanged.

    2. No improvements? Hmm. Was kinda hoping they'd do something about the armament. Oh well. *off to play the indien panzer then*

    3. The ammo capacity got buffed. The 7,5cm L/70 can hold 79 grenades in the stock turret and 100 grenades in the upgraded turret.

      And you get a new engine to grind through between the top and the stock engine. 700 hp for 15k exp (I need to get that top engine asap before the patch).

  5. A word of warning about the T-60: the 35 mm armor is the lower glacis, the upper glacis is 15 mm thick.

    ReplyDelete

    1. But upper hull (actually only upper front hull is ever called glacis, lower front hull is sometimes called nose plate) is sloped at IIRC 70ddeg, so pretty much autobounce for everything small caliber.

      Upper front hull: 15mm@70deg
      Lower front hull: 35mm@28deg
      Driver's cockpit: 35mm@15deg
      Sides: 15mm@0deg
      Rear: 25mm@14deg
      Front turret: 25mm@25deg
      Mantle: 20mm@0deg+20mm@45deg

      Don't know what top turret is in game but probably one uparmored or from T-45 prototype, that is 35/35/35mm

      Delete
    2. 15 mm armor only autobounce shells up to 35 mm calibres, eg. the MS-1's stock 37 mm won't bounce.

      Stock turret have 15/15/15 armor (t-40 turret) and the top have 25/15/20 (T-60 turret).

      It's pretty fun though with 52 deg/sec hull traverse... and 13 hp/ton :P

    1. The second I posted that, I remembered how testserver works. No answer needed, huge derp on my side, sorry. ;)

      Delete
    2. The test server is only one. And it is for everyone.
      The speed wich the EU community posts the news about it tough is a bit slower than the RU one. So be sure to check Worldoftanks.ru if you want to know if the test is up or not.

  9. Looks like lots of good things coming, or at least interesting things. How good the new German stuff is remains to be seen.

  10. i'm excited about the map, incidentally i just tried to open the test launcher, no update, on a wim i tried again and now its downloading a patch so it might have just come online, I'll be making a small series of videos about 8.5 test as i did on my youtube channel for 8.4, no promises on how much stuff i preview, today, I am going to aim for a Leopard 1 review and then see how late it is :)

  15. Anyone confirm the Leo Prototype only has a rate of fire of 5 rounds a minute? This would be bad. Some people are already in test.

    1. don't worry about that stuff, they wont keep the values of the 1st test if they are wrong/bad, im almost done on download so i might be able to upload my first video in less than 2 hours, fingers crossed

      Delete
    2. >5 rounds a minute
      I head back to take a look on my Centurion7. Same DMP, possibly less accuracy, and unreliable HESH.
      Sorry my lovely Centurion....

    3. The guns on the cent 7/1 and the pt A are the same except that the pt A has HEAT

    4. the gun on the tier 9 with 5 per minute is only for the tier 9, the 10 fires faster and the gun in question is a 105mm

      Delete
  16. You can update ur old Test Client to the new one now!

  17. Well, wot.ru already posted the patch notes.So the t-server is up.

    if you scroll down you will see that someone met the Failowe

    ReplyDelete
  19. Ahahahahaha WG does it again. Check this fucking shit out.

    http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/96/ncbksx.jpg

    The FailLowe is smaller than Leo. Fuck you SerB with your fucking pathetic shit Leopards and your invented Failowe.

    This patch really shows how much they hate german tanks. We pretty much got trolled.

    1. They increase size of lowe for historical purpose = whining about german tanks
      They make failowe a small tank = whining about german tanks

  20. Whopper,

    Failowe is only for clan babies. Public doesn't get it. Leos have been totally screwed in terms of firepower. The "paper tanks" that Serb laughed about giving us have worse DPM than armored tanks of the same tier. Fark them is right. Terrible new T9, T10, Failpanther is dumb as well.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Woohoo. 165 damage with the konisch gun on the 3601 with standard ammo. Sounds very very tempting :)

    ReplyDelete
  22. WTF? On RU and NA sites, there are links to testserver client download, only EU is slacking. Can I download test server form, let's say, NA link, and will it work on EU client?

    ReplyDelete
  23. T-54 face stomps the Leo proto by the way. Already tested. Not even a close match up.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Maybe they will buff Leo 1 in test 2. But i doubt because remember JPE-100 it came out like total shit. And we had to wait for the next test to buff it a little. So yea maybe with Leo 1 it will be different.

    ReplyDelete
  25. In this entire update, Germany gets one good tank, the Indien, and 3 complete fail tanks, the Failpanther, Faileo, Faileo P.

    Wonderful.

  26. i could penetrate a enemy leo 1 (in hulldown) everywhere on his turret, gun matle and even high sloped parts of the turret with my leo 1

    ReplyDelete
  27. Looks oddly like the E-50's turret from the back. More model c&p?
