Servers are down for maintenance, we should have the new patch in the morning...

I got caught out with the update last night.

Was working on unlocking the Maus, 146k xp on the VKB and had enough free XP to unlock but thought, one more game.........Just as the game finished the server dropped off with the update.

I thought my internet had dropped at first, needless to say i was not a happy bunny last night!!!! Serves me right for not paying attention to the time.

Game sure feels weird after not touching it for almost 2 months!

Gun handling improvements on the Indien Pz. are most certainly appreciated and E-75 too.

maybe Ive misunderstood but I thought that if you have Maus, they will give you new tanks they have introduced?
"If you researched the Tier X Maus, these two will be credited to you as researched as well."

Just updating now.

Want to have a quick look to see what these changes are like that they made for Arty.

Correct, that's my understand and what they said: -

Firstly, after careful consideration, we decided to replace the two with the VK100.01P (Tier VIII) and Mäuschen (Tier IX). If you researched the Tier X Maus, they will be credited to you as researched as well.

I think that is the point, he didn't use his free XP to unlock the Maus, so he basically lost out on an unlocked T8 and T9

.

Arty changes are only in super test so no changes in game yet.

I don't think the sandbox changes will happen any time soon.

I feel dirty but I decided to pick up the Object 252 last night. Haven't had a chance to try it yet but I will tonight.

OspreyO · 24 Feb 2017 at 10:04

Met a few. Last night. I was completely unable to pen the lower plate. Managed to pen one from the side at 90degrees. Otherwise everything I fired at them bounced.

The Lowe seems to have become very hard to pen since the buff. Tend to be more dominant in games now.

Sargatanas2511 · 24 Feb 2017 at 10:32

At the front the Lowe isn't bad at all now. Side on, or even in hilly terrain that exposes the lower plate it isn't amazing though. The 252 seems really stupid though on paper, I will report back my findings when I try it out tonight.

OspreyO · 24 Feb 2017 at 10:41

I struggle to pen the lowe with the rev though. Most lowe drivers won't move far or give you the LFP.

I though the LFP was meant to be weak on the 252. I couldn't pen it anyway.

Sargatanas2511 · 24 Feb 2017 at 11:00

Check it on tanks.gg, the armour model is ridiculous. I got it simply because if you can't beat them, join them.

neoboy · 24 Feb 2017 at 11:40

Basically improved IS-6 that sees T10 as they are doing away with preferential matchmaker.

Sargatanas2511 · 24 Feb 2017 at 11:42

Improved in every way though, too improved going by the stats.

neoboy · 24 Feb 2017 at 11:47

Yeah the new breed of premium tanks can easily stand toe to toe with their non-premium counterparts as compared to the tanks of the old. The philosophy has completely changed from WG and here to stay now.

Sargatanas2511 · 24 Feb 2017 at 12:00

Even compared to the other new ones though, this one does look a bit ridiculous. Time will tell though.

neoboy · 24 Feb 2017 at 12:11

Doesn't look all that impressive in T10 and even T9 battles as lot of gun can chew through its hull. Also anyone having a problem of the game going into windowed mode after alt and tabbing? Never had this issue before and pretty annoying.

I had a similar issue to that and traced it to Team Viewer running in the background.

Sargatanas2511 · 24 Feb 2017 at 12:56

I play the game in a window anyway so I don't have any issues with that.

neoboy · 24 Feb 2017 at 13:07

Don't have anything new installed so guess I'll just load a little sooner in case I need to re-adjust it. Second day back and already have new people on the blacklist, some things never change
