Version 8 available for download on the US site - not available yet on the EU site. Not sure if they will be the same?

1.3GB in size though
 
so good to see the T-50-2 is getting a bit of a downgrade, finally reducing its turn rate! :) also good to see the A-20 is actually getting an upgrade, because its utter gash, in every way shape and form at the moment.
 
I play on the US servers, got stiffed with my camo tanks, didnt get the full value of gold back when they removed all the camo. :(
 
uk website says its down due to maintenance works. Wonder what all that is about.

US one is up.

Camouflage
All camouflage present on tanks at the time of the update will be removed, and a refund for the cost will be returned: - Camouflage removal and refund will be performed automatically upon the first login to the game after the update - Camouflage will be compensated at purchase price & in purchase currency - gold or credits respectively
- All camouflage is refunded at the same price it was purchased for
Up to three camouflage patterns (summer, winter, desert) can be purchased and stored for each vehicle. The pattern will be selected automatically depending on the classification of the map. If there is no appropriate pattern, then no camouflage will be applied
Camouflage patterns now give 5% camouflage bonus to the vehicle characteristics when in use

Didnt realise this, OI !
So they give you a refund on any camo tanks then expect you to buy it again if you want it probably for more money.
Cheek!
Reading the US website the downtime is 8 hours whilst they upgrade the servers to 8.0
Also noticed it says

All players with a premium account at the start of the maintenance will be compensated 1 day of premium time.

Wonder if that includes wearing snow camo on a "green" map and vice versa ? :)

I think it's 250 gold per camo and there are now 3 camo sets. Winter/Snow, Desert/Urban & Wood/Forest.

So for example, say you purchased the Winter/Snow camo set and you were on Artic Region your tank would appear with a white pattern camo and you would gain 5% extra camo (awesome as its an open map anyway!) but when you were on Steppes you would have no camo at all because you only purchased the winter/snow camo and this is more a desert map.

So, they expect you to pay 750 gold to cover all map types......per vehicle! Not to mention it now costs gold to put text/logos on your tank as well.
 
Siema....Looks like they're enhancing the 'pay to win' features of the game. I fully expect enhanced gold armour to be the next on the list....

I'm concerned about this new patch, we have retards that can't play the game in its current form - and now they introduce physics. It's going to spawn a whole new level of retard. The game is going to be a mess for weeks, E100's will be toppling off cliffs every other game.....Maybe it's time for a break....
 
I remember the first few days of the test server, people were not shooting each other but simply trying to get to the most inaccessible parts of the map. After a few days it got back to normal (ish). I can see the same thing happening on this release - I might also break for a few days to let the retards get it out of their system.

I didn't see it in the Beta but i'd like to see a "Tick this box to play with players that have an IQ higher than your average goldfish" option.

p.s. RE the gold camo. 1500 gold costs £5.95. So for full camo set (750 gold) on a tank you would pay around £3 - this would decrease slightly if you bought more gold at once of course.

Looks like they are really killing off the E4...

Max speed of T110E4 suspension decreased from 28 km/h to 26 km/h
Max reverse speed changed from12 km/h to 10 km/h
Turret side armoring changed from 203 mm to 152 mm
Armoring of T110E4 turret cheekbones changed from 254 mm to 203 mm
Armoring of T110E4 gun mantlet changed from 305 mm to 254 mm
Aiming time of 155 mm AT Gun T7E2 gun changed from 2.7 sec. to 2.9 sec.
Reloading time of 155 mm AT Gun T7E2 changed from 20.2 sec. to 21 sec.
Dispersion of 155 mm AT Gun T7E2 changed of 0.36 m to 0.37 m
 
That's ridiculous regarding the E4. If it were Russian they would never have nerfed it.

Physics+retards. Watch out for the biggest tanks killing themselves!

And I too will not be buying new camo.
 
Typical WG. Produce a decent tank so everyone grinds to it as its worth having then nerf it to hell when everyone has it, then produce the next decent tank so everyone grinds to that .... carrot and stick.
