  1. How much ping do you get in Asia? I'd think it's only about 130ms-ish.

     

    I know I end up with 130 on NA East. I haven't downloaded the EU or Asian server game versions yet. I could try to, but that would take up a lot of harddrive space. In addition, most people over there don't speak English if I am correct.

     

    However, if I can run a proper Ping test and get a result below 150ms, I could try to transfer to another server.

  2. IS-4 was good when it was T9, as a T10 it's a underperforming, barely anyone play these. 

     

    IS-7 is very reliable tank, as it is since the beginning of the game.

    IS-7 is reliable... to everyone but me. Whenever I face enemy IS-7's, I can't penetrate them no matter how careful I aim. When I drive an IS-7, everything goes through my tank as though it has no armor at all.  -_-

     

    It's a great tank though. Just don't ask me how to play it. I'm terri-bad in it.  :P

  3. Edit: Raffle has been completed; winners were Riptide098 & US_3rd_Army from the NA server

  4. Good news is 80% of mods, and I mean those important mods (at least to me) works, so no Vanilla 9.3 for ya guys tomorrow on patch day :)

     

    I really need some rest :( .....

    If you really need some rest... stop working on the modpack for a day or two and get some rest! You deserve it... don't overwork yourself.  :o

  5. Tons of things that we don't know about this situation though, so no1 can tell you anything about it.

    Was it a 1 vs 1 or could someone else have spotted you?

    What tanks were you two using?

    What crew skills/equipement/consumables were in play; on both sides?

    On top of that, you only think that you knew where the arty was at.

     

    Usually, it's safe to assume that everything was legit, imo.

    Arties are normally very well camouflaged and only detectable when pretty close to you (unless they fire and/or move).

    Seeing as you didn't have 6th sense, it's also fair to presume that your crew was worse than their crew.

     

    Usually safe to assume? It's always safe to assume everything is legit.

     

    98mc, upload the replay to wotreplays.com and I'll download it and watch it. I'm assuming you were spotted by another tank from a distance and didn't realize that. Either that, or you were spotted right before you began staying still. The arty saw you stop moving, you went out of the arty's sight, and he took a fully aimed shot at your previous location.

  6. I never said that im a new player and i need a guide about how to play, im a 4k games player that is doing 1500-1800 wn8 sessions all days and i think i know all the mechanics of the game but i want to remember them more automatic if its possible, but thanks anyway, that can help any new player that read this post.

     

    The post is about if anyone know about a skin mod that ONLY show the weak spots, not the modules or crew. I searched a lot in google and cant find one, so thats why i did the post.

     

    If anyone know a mod like i said and tell it to me i will apreciate it so much.

     

    Thanks.

     

    There aren't mods that show weakspots directly.

     

    However, MeltyMap's Math Mod shows you the exact amount of armor that you are shooting at (as well as what your current effective penetration is), so that could be of use. In addition, using the Tank Info Panel will tell you the general armor and gun values of any vehicle you highlight (including your own). Using both together can help you significantly.

  7. I wasn’t convinced so much about all this reasoning, your example was good but not so good, BT-SV and AMX have different campo value, so i tried to find some more evidences. Not to miss respect to nobody but just to be sure.

    I tried to check again this theory in forum and i find this two discussions:

    http://forum.worldoftanks.com/index.php?/topic/365131-can-someone-else-ruin-your-camo/page__st__20#topmost

    http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/379458-does-shooting-behind-bushes-reduce-camo-of-other-tanks-behind-the-bushes/page__st__20

    Unfortunately with different conclusions!!!!

     

    So i try with game support and it’s +1 to you.

    The official response: “Camo mechanics are about your tank only upon firing.” “The bonuses for other tanks within that 15m radius doesn't change unless they don't shoot themselves.”

     

    p.s.

    the other problem , being shot at accidentally by the enemy due to the proximity to the spotted tank was not neither in question

    I was within enough proximity of both of the tanks to spot them if their camo values dropped even the slightest bit - I tested that before hand. As soon as the AMX fired, he was spotted but the BT-SV wasn't. If the BT-SV were to shoot, or lose any camo value for that matter, he would be spotted immediately as well. The two tanks were right next to each other, but only one was spotted.

     

    If you want, I could run the same thing with two T49's with full Camo Skills and camo nets paired right next to each other. I'd have one shoot and the other just sit still. The one who shoots would be spotted whilst the other remains hidden.

  8. Obviously. This is pretty clear.

     

    Let talk about camo bonus.

    I know that after my shot bushes or standing trees within the 15m diameter become transparent and lose their environment camouflage bonus. This is the rule. Simple.

    Until now i thought that this is valid for everyone 15m around me but probably i am wrong.

    Are you sure that the camouflage bonus lose is only for me and not for everybody that is 15m near me?

    I heard this theory lot of time ago and i never check it. I always believe it is true. After tour response i try to verify it via google but I didn’t try too much.

    Only your own tank's camoflauge is affected when you shoot. This is why that BT-SV remained hidden when the AMX 50 100 fired - the AMX lost most of his camo value, but the BT-SV wasn't affected; he was still invisible. The only problem is that when you're within 15m of a tank, if you're spotted, the ally you're next to may be shot at as well if an enemy misses you, or the ally is in the enemy's line of fire towards your tank.

     

    The issue is not with allies within 15m losing their camo - they still keep that camo. The main problem comes from allies within 15m of the spotted tank being shot at accidentally by the enemy due to the proximity to the spotted tank. You could remain invisible whilst sitting next to your spotted Platoon mate and still get shot at - your tank is still there, even though the enemy doesn't see you. If you're in the way of the shot, you'll get hit.

     

    This is where the theory came about. Players were getting hit so often when sitting within 15m of an ally, that they speculated they were losing their camo value - this is not the case as my test with the AMX 50 100 and BT-SV proves. They're just so close to the spotted allies that shots are accidentally hitting them.

  9. Just one thing about Sitting next to Allies: after our shot, bushes/trees in 15 m range from our tank are no longer providing camouflage, so all the tanks that are near us will lose this part of protection too….but what happened with camo net and camo skill? Are they still offer an protection or due to our shot this part of protection for our allies is loosed also?

    Your Camo Net and Camo Skills still remain in effect - don't worry.

  10. Yup, I changed it to 3 posts, for educational purposes :)

     

    To prevent new users to posts their issues on shoutbox right after registering on the forum, at least to make it harder ;)
