I have a feeling the A7M is going to have a BR increase soon. Currently it is a superprop facing things like P39s.
 
And I managed to download it all in a one hour or two... Thank you, decent Internet connection. And while I haven't played a game in the new version yet, I can say this; British tanks, yay.

Having to pay too many (real) British pounds for them, however? Nope. Shame on you Gaijin, you could've done better with a new tank tech tree. Why not have an even split of non-Premium vehicles and Premium ones for those who can't afford to spend real-life Silver Lions?

"I just spoke with a Sony PS4 Tech support agent. She said there is no new update available for WT in their data base. After explaining the situation, she told me there is no record of Gaijin Entertainment supplying the update information to Sony as of yet."

This was about an hour ago.

Two people spoke to Sony tech support and got two different stories. I wouldn't go by anything passed on from Sony's customer service reps.

Edit: Finally some new info, posted by Smin1080p, Lead Tech Mod on the official forums, but it's direct word from Gaijin CEO on reddit.

Sony has a glitch on their side and we still can't publish update for PS4 (it has passed submission, it is just not publishing for users).

HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET IT DONE THAT FAST?


Like, what was the speed on the Gaijin installer?

Actually, I did make a blunder; I could play the game, but the instalation was not complete when I booted it up. As a resut, I had to continue the download (I had about 3 GB left to download), and I actually managed to get a disk error as well, so I had a delay to add up to the mix. Fortunately, that problem was solved after I turned off Firefox and kept the Internet traffic to a minimum.

But if you want to know, I mostly got 1 MB max, with some periods where it dipped to 400 or so KB.

I'm maxing out at 400kb...
 
I FINISHED B***CHES!!!

But same... sleep much needed.


Things I see different:
General chat is gone, however players create their own chat boxes. Invites now has a dedicated icon. Items such as RP, lion, orders, wagers are now visible in the bottom right corner.



Anyways, I'm going to try to work on my German aviation lineup. I want to be able to do more in realistic battles other than just tanks, so I have some grinding to do..
 
Before the update dropped, I had gone away from the grind I was doing and was working on getting skins for lower tier vehicles, and just outright spading low tier vehicles I had overlooked due to the grind. It's actually been a nice change from the 4.0BR planes and 5.0BR tanks.

But, can't do that until the patch is there on PS4.
 
lol...


Had a blast playing Stalingrad on RB tanks in both Tiger E and H1. I think we had a convoy of Es to start out with, and we then split up... Someone could've saved the replay and directed a movie out of it, it was that good.

The new German map was okay, but didn't play it that long. I really like the spotting system, and it's not that OP at all. It's much needed after trying relentlessly to figure out if that's a dead tank or not...

Can't do much against a bad Internet connection drop sometimes, I know those feels... But at least now you got it done, the Internet eventually took pity on you, haha.

Also, the new tank spotting system definitely sounds like an interesting and useful change within the HUD, I do wonder how it works.
 
So I played some games last night. My impressions:

Stalingrad is a god damn maze of destroyed buildings.
Rhine is hectic as the B and the C flag are right down the road from each other.

But I do like it. Granted avast is giving me problems so I only played for a half hour last night. I'll play more tonight though.

Basically, if someone shoots an enemy, a downwards arrow appears at his first location (he can move, the arrow is stationary). He also gets shown on the map of what he is (light, medium, heavy, TD). It lasts for about 20 seconds or less.

Real useful for determining who's dead or not, as MG's also set it off.

Get rid of that Avast dude... causes problems for everything.

Hmm, interesting, so it's a quick visual cue to determine enemy positions as well as their damaged status... That is definitely a very useful way to find those two things, and it's good that it was implemented in the game.

Haha, guess that also applies to me, a fellow Avast user. But I always keep mine on Silent/Gaming mode so that it won't bother me when I'm playing. It's a matter of fiddling around with its options...

Nope... Not damaged status, but position at least.

It's a pain is the ass for a whole bunch of other stuff on my computer. AVG just sits there and does its job..



One thing I've noticed so far, is that after you join a match or so, it will say "processing operation" and in wont join a match at all.... Never had that issue.
