    The new map is also okay, a field and a town

    ReplyDelete
  16. Q: So this patch does not include the full revamp of the german tree like shown here? (http://statcdn.worldoftanks.eu/comeu_v2_110412_release/uploads/germany_tree_full%28eng%29.jpg)
    So we won't get the Marder III TD line now?

    Also, the answer to the question if the VK3601(H) becomes a heavy in this patch asked above would be very interesting

    Thx

  17. Q: "Engine power boost"

  24. Free players whining about paying premium finally won the battle ...
    I do think this is a good move for the game. But, is there any plan to "compensate" premium users in some way?
    I do know 3 players platoon is available only to premiums, but this is a very important premium feature now available for free to anybody.

  35. Q: Dear Overlord, The 135 damage will be the final damage for the Panther's L/100 gun? According to the last 3 pages of the topic below, it won't be enough and transforms that famous tank of the Panzerwaffe to an undergunned cannon fooder.

    Q: Will the Pz III/IV and Pz IV swap tree positions in this patch?

    ReplyDelete
  42. Overlord, please tell us wheter we will get our EU test server for 6.6 in order to test the new tanks. Not everyone has an RU account.

  44. Hello Overlord,

    I'm happy with every bit of information you give us on here. But it is a bit strange that we have to go to your personal blog to find it, while nothing is really posted on the official forum.

    Apart from that we get a lot of bits that don't really connnect and sometimes even contradict former information. We're missing the big picture.

    Q: Can you post a rough timeline (in months) somewhere with the different releases that are planned and the content that is planned for said releases.

    It doesn't matter if planning changes, but at the moment i have no real idea anymore what to expect. And seeing the same questions as response to your posts, a lot of players ahve the same problem. Thank you in advance.

    ReplyDelete
  45. All ru test server players receive 10 000 gold for testing 6.6 ??
    How to get into test server ?? :)

    ReplyDelete
  46. Hello just a quick question:
    The new tanks to the US line, do you have a eta on the changes ?

    ReplyDelete
  47. 135 dmg for Panther? Why?

    ReplyDelete
  48. So... according to this russian site, the normal panther will also get the 88 L71 and not the 75 L100...
    But who are we now going to trust... a russian site, or overlord? XD

    ReplyDelete
  49. Do you want to nerf the E series? I play with an IS-7, but I can't damage the E-100. It has great armor, great agility and speed, great gun and a lot of HP.

    IS-7 has 2200HP, 150mm armor, 490dmg. E-100 has 3000HP, 200mm, 750dmg.

    Do you think it is fair?

    ReplyDelete
  50. Q: Overlord, are the stats for the E-50's 88L/100 that are seen floating around the real stats for the gun (223 penetration and 240 dmg) or are there different stats?

    ReplyDelete
  51. Those stats are from the test server so I would say real. In theory they could change them before release though

    ReplyDelete
  52. "All ru test server players receive 10 000 gold for testing 6.6 ??
    How to get into test server ?? :)"

    You get 10 000 gold on the test server, you don't get 10 000 gold for testing as some sort of payment on your regular account if that was your thinking.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Are there some new Informations about the tracers? I thought they should be reintroduced completely with the 6.5 patch but they are not active until now.

    ReplyDelete
  54. August????? 31.8. or???

    Can somebody make wideo with Skoda T25????

    ReplyDelete
  55. Patch 6,6 isn't Duke Nukem! XD

    Overlord said already above that the tracers are not going to be fixed with this patch... so still godmode for arty... XD

    ReplyDelete
  56. Hi Overlord,

    Patch sounds great. One question:

    Q: Will the machine gun slot on the IS-4 top turret be a weak spot or just a visual addition?

    ReplyDelete
  57. Q: Panther 1 drop to tier 7 in 6.6 ?

    ReplyDelete
  58. @ Overlord:
    When comes the EU Testserver online with this patch? Or is it canceled?

    ReplyDelete
  59. Will there be a link from the VK3601H to the VK3001P? I am playing the Tiger I now and don't want to go back to PzKpfw IV to go for the Maus...

    ReplyDelete
  60. The tech tree was already set, nobody will change it because of you, deal with it.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Hi there, id like to ask if it would be possible to have the awesome german 75mm L/100 which is tier 8 on actual tier 8 german meds?

    ReplyDelete
  62. Overlord-

    When are the M103 and T110 coming? You people are waiting to long to give the american tree 1 tier 10 tank while the germans get two and the russian second tier 10 is on the way when the swich around happens.......Pathetic.....

    ReplyDelete
  63. Im currently on the 3001p and i dont know if ill get the 3002db before the release of this patch.
    If i dont will i get the 3002db for free? Or will i need to rework to the 3002db? Looks odd to me if i have to. And then will i keep the 3001p? Or will my 3001p be replaced with the db.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Hi Overlord

    Its still actual that EXP from elite Tiger I goes to King Tiger in 6.6.0 path?? I don't see it on preliminary patch notes v.6.6.

  66. "August" is a pretty broad period of time to project a release date. Are we talking "early August" "Mid August" or "Late August"? In other words, do I have enough time to get from Tiger to VK 4501 before the patch hits?

    ReplyDelete
  67. Q:
    I'm happy with every bit of information you give us on here. But it is a bit strange that we have to go to your personal blog to find it, while nothing is really posted on the official forum.

    A: It's a matter of time mostly. All important info will appear on other resources as well. I am used to "leak stuff" here, you know.

    ReplyDelete
  68. @Tiger Anon

    I kind of doubt it. As far as I know the patch is slated for early August so I kind of doubt there will be time.. unless youre a monster and can get 40kxp a day? heh Maybe with premium services and gold/elite tanks.. I still have to rebuy a KT so I go on and get an e-75. Thing looks pretty slick.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Please Overlord can you tell us when will be the new patch (6.6) applied, aproximately (in weeks please)?

    ReplyDelete
  70. "It is a priority, however tracers wont be back in 6.6."

    What are you guys doing all day? Dont get me wrong, but how long are the tracers now disabled? I think you guys should really hurry up solving the problem with the modable tracer or just enable the tracer again even if its still modable. Everyday there are more artys ruining the game.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Q: So E-50 wont get the same stats as Panther II... Nice armor buff so the hull is like t-54.. When can we expect m47 patton buff or do we get the m48 chassi too finally in one of the next patches?
    You're giving us us tank drivers a hard time... heavys and medium paper tanks, bugged td line (look at t28 and t95..) and only the arti line is ok.. comeon overlord do something for the us tank players.. we have suffered enough.. a good player can't do something versus bugs or even this paper armors.. :( winratio is still high but thats no balance point.. look at stats and clan wars etc.
    I really beg you...

    ReplyDelete
  72. Overlord,

    Urgent question - I am grinding my Tiger II as fast as possible to the VK4502. When does the 6.6 patch come out so I know exactly how much time is left? I wouldn't mind waiting an extra week :-)

    ReplyDelete
  73. Can you give us an estimate when 6.7 will be released?

    ReplyDelete
  74. Overlord,

    I have a vk3002DB and i'd like to reach the E-50 on this line.Panther will be on tier 7, so i have to research it too? That means i've lost a tier?:)

    ReplyDelete
  75. try get the panther 1 before patch, then you get the panther 2 for free and 100% crew on it! RObino

    ReplyDelete
  76. Overlord We see all these Nice things coming out for the USA and the German tanks Is there anything nice coming out for USSR look at the stats on the russian test server from both nations the USSR Look like there at a disadvancage or is it just me?

    Kind Regards
    Rampy

    ReplyDelete
  77. Hey Overlord,
    Can I get a 10.5 cm L/100 gun for my Löwe tank? How about one for my Tiger II (when I get my Tiger II that is) I just want a 10.5 cm L/100 on a German tank. Did those exist?!?

    ReplyDelete
  78. Hi Overlord,
    Your 30th April post (tech trees revised & improved) mentioned new KV variants, yet these do not appear in your new preliminary patch notes. Please let us know what the situation is regarding these items.
    Thank you for a great game.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Russian 0.6.6 test1 Q&A thread, Google-translated: link to the thread

    - Afterburners will be removed for all E-Serie (due to balance reasons);
    - Armor for E-50 and E-75 will be increased (and weight as well);
    - E-50 and E-75 will get 1200HP engines;
    - And some other - read, guys ;)

    ReplyDelete
  80. What to expect after patch 6.6:

    - First we'll get the french tech tree (this Fall).
    - Next - the USSR Heavy Tank line will be modified.
    - Later - changes in USSR TD line (new TDs will be added)
    - and finally - changes in the Germany TD line (new TDs will be added)

    The answers of all (or almost all) your questions were already posted here! You need only to read the blog!!!

    Also - nothing about US M103 and T110. I only hope we will see them this year. But its not a big problem for me, I'm enjoying my T30 and I'm not in a hurry ;)

    Cheers, m4st3r

  81. Just to clarify, it says side armour, not frontal in that thread :)

  82. In Development: Vol. 2
    Preliminary patch notes of v.6.6 update planned for release after v.6.5:

    New map Fishing Bay (working title, subject to change)
    New map Siegfried Line (working title, subject to change)
    New German heavy tanks line: Pz.VI Tiger (P), VK 4502 (P) Ausf A, Е-75, Е-100.
    New US heavy tank М103, a substitution to Т34 as tier 9 US heavy tank.
    Soviet heavy tank IS-4 shift to tier 10 and introduction of Object 252 as new tier 9 Soviet heavy tank.
    New US premium light tank M22 Locust.
    New Soviet premium light tank Т-127.

    The introduction of German medium tank Е-50 in v.6.6 update is under consideration.

    So we will get is4 at tier 10 on 6.6 patch or not?!

    ReplyDelete
  83. No, you won't. Thats old. See this one:
    http://game.worldoftanks.eu/in_development

    ReplyDelete
  84. Here are some answers:

    The Tiger and King Tiger are staying where they are in the tech tree, so there's no point in transferring xp from the Tiger to the King Tiger.

    The Panther's guns, as you can see in this post from the Russian server (http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/41037-panther/page__st__120), will be the 75 L/70, 105 L/28, 88 L/56, and 75 l/100. The damage caused by the 75's, as has always been the case for same-caliber guns of different lengths, will be the same, in this case 135 average hp, the same as it is now for German 75's. Only the penetration increases as barrel lengths increase. The L/100 will have a nice average penetration of 198 mm, much better than the short 88's.

    ReplyDelete
  85. Overlord i know that i wont get answer on my questions on forum so i have to ask here

    what gun will IS4 get after patch 6.7? if it will have less penetration than 260(S-70) so just leave S-70 on IS4

    ReplyDelete
  86. Quote:

    Added machine-gun slot to the model of top turret of IS-4

    Question: Ninja Buff for IS4 turret with new hitzones for its relocation as a t10 hvy?

    ReplyDelete
  87. Hello Overlord. I have a question. I have king tiger, VK and maus all elite (maus is by default). After the petch will my king tiger loose its elite status because i will have to spend xp to open the new E-75 or will be opened since i already have elite status?

    ReplyDelete
  88. Still no M103 / T110? and when they come?

    ReplyDelete
  89. Just to be sure:
    - If you already have P2 as elite, will you get the best engine on E-50 without needing to research it?
    - The top engines of E-50 and E-75 are the same?

    ReplyDelete
  90. Question about XP: Will the unused XP from the Panther transfered to the PantherII?

    ReplyDelete
  91. Q: can you clarify what 'disproportional tank icons'?
    IE does the minimap now distiquish between a higher teir td and a lower one?

    ReplyDelete
  92. I hope Wargaming realizes that Tier 10 heavys are currently not playable in random games due arties? Tracers would greatly relieve this problem.
    -Counterbattery would be again possible
    -You would even had a chance to position yourself best way possible to avoid arty when you see the shot coming. Now you don't have a clue and you are usually dead because it takes only 1-2 shots from arty to kill T10 heavy. (Other than Maus)

    Nice to grind two T10 heavies and be able to use them otherwise than in Clan Wars.

    ReplyDelete
  93. can you remove the boxs at base in this patch

    ReplyDelete
  94. Hey Overlord,

    Is it correct what you said that the EXP from Elite Tiger will be transfer to Kingtiger? :( i saved 165k on my Tiger :(

    ReplyDelete
  95. Total agree with the last comment, tier7-8 artys are too much overpowered

    ReplyDelete
  96. I think artys should be supporting vechicles, but they are now onemanarmys

    ReplyDelete
  97. no they are not. very few arties can kncok our more than 6 tanks. This can happen of course but it is rare. I can mostly kill way more enemies with heavy or medium than an arty. And think that 4-5 kills per battle is normal. What should be changed tho is having 5-6 arties in each team... now thats the problem.

    ReplyDelete
  98. arty is fine, they ARE support tanks, play a few higher level games. RoF is extermely low, when players use terrain will arty does NOT have a good shot, when players move arty has a difficult shot, when arty fires at someone close - they reveal themselves, and are promptly killed.
    arty is NOT overpowered. geez, and this is a non-arty player talking - theghostcat

    ReplyDelete
  99. Will undistributed XP from Elite Tiger be transfer to Kingtiger, as u said before? Plz confirm!

    ReplyDelete
  100. Engine boost removed? HP increased and weight also? What's teh point? OMG Facepalm! That's EPIC! No german tank should go fast! OMG HAHAHAHAHAH :D:D:D It's ridiculous taht every heavy goes around > 30 km/h.. Jf this move is correct, then it was just a great statement! :D

  102. When want to change the M103/M110 ????????
    T34 its to weak :(

    ReplyDelete
  103. Overlord, I have a question.

    What will happen with research when Panther II is switched to E-50? I currently have fully upgraded Panther II, but will I need to research the Tier 10 engine again? Or will it be researched automatically? (Recently spent my xp on Panther II engine, so it would suck if I need to research again.)

    From what I know my engine would be researched automatically with patch, but people have been saying I need to grind another 50k just for the engine.

    ReplyDelete
  104. machine-gun slot for IS-4 is just mistake of patch-note. this slot has been already added half year ago.

    ReplyDelete
  105. for the question about a tank losing elite status for having new stuff to research, it should still be elite, my patton tank is elite still, yet I haven't researched that other 90mm gun

    ReplyDelete
  106. HAHAHA. Sure not opverpowered. Gw Tiger one shoot me always with tier9 T34. If that is not overpowred then i dont know what.

    ReplyDelete
  107. The game need a heavy arty nerf or tier10 med tanks like t-62

    ReplyDelete
  108. omg...you gotta be kidding me???!!?! :D L2P and arty wont kill you... If you think arty is overpowered then you definetely DO NOT know how to play this game..and maybe its time to go back to SIMS ?

  109. "omg...you gotta be kidding me???!!?! :D L2P and arty wont kill you... If you think arty is overpowered then you definetely DO NOT know how to play this game..and maybe its time to go back to SIMS"

    Oh another guy with that old unreal talk... When u learn to avoid arty games changes into campfest and we all know thats no good. Recently I have been killed by arty only in situations when I want to jump open field or when I was accidently detracked so I have no problem with arty but something is wrong when I need at least two shots to kill arty and arty can oneshot me (u know that situation when your rushes into enemys base and only arty left to kill and that arty is hide in bushes and can blow with oneshot first tank in their sight). Arty shuld be nerfed - 4 shots to kill is enough on that same tier for benefit of satellite view and whole map targeting.

  110. Why is xp from elite Tigers being transferred to King Tigers? Why were people running Tigers and King Tigers in parallel? The new tech trees were released some time ago, and it was clear to anyone who looked at them that the Tiger and King Tiger were staying where they were, and that no new tanks were branching off the Tiger. There was no reason to keep running your Tiger, except for enjoyment, once you had the King Tiger. Why are people being rewarded for not reading the new German tech tree?

  111. Is there any plans to give the T-44 the LB 100 gun? Looking at the stats, it is at a disadvantage vs. the Pershing and a major disadvantage vs. the Panther II. This is mainly due to the fact that the tank is a Tier 8 tank using a Tier 6 gun. The LB 100 does not add any additional penetration or damage, just a slightly increased RoF and accuracy. I don't think this would be overpowered at the tier 8 level.

  112. "Why are people being rewarded for not reading the new German tech tree?"

    Oddly enough, people who had run both tanks at the same time in preparation for the E-75 actually DID read the update:

    http://game.worldoftanks.com/news/full-tech-trees-revised-and-improved

    We knew of this three months in advance, mind you.

  113. "Oddly enough, people who had run both tanks at the same time in preparation for the E-75 actually DID read the update:"

    Are you reading what I'm reading? The German tech trees, new and old, haven't changed at all regarding the Tiger and King Tiger. The Tiger leads to the King Tiger, and ONLY the King Tiger in both trees. As you stated, we've known this about the new tree for three months. There is no reason to have kept running the Tiger once you had the King Tiger, unless you simply liked to drive it. Therefore, anyone who has been running an elite Tiger has been doing so in spite of all facts put out by the World of Tanks.

    If you want the Porsche Tiger, the tree clearly shows that you can get one ONLY through the 3001 (P). If you thought the arrow leading from the Tiger (P) to the Tiger I was going both ways, then you don't know how to read the tree. No one should be responsible for that error except those who misread the chart.

  114. Absolutely hate high tier arty. It doesn't solve camping. Satellite view arty makes you camp more. Honestly may as well be a Maverick AT missile.

  115. Hi Overlord!

    Is it possible to get information about the estimated credits and XP, we need to spend on Tiger(P), Ausf. A, E-75 and E-100. Would make preparations for the patch much easier.

  116. Really frustrated about the number of high tier artys currently in the game. Just bought the biggest gun on my Panther II yesterday (yes- paid with cash because it was a hard grind for tracks and turret already). Really love it against all tanks but when I got on the hill at abbey taking potshots at 4 high tier artys it took me two rounds each. In the meantime the enemy team capped our base.

  117. Hi Overlord,

    What about the viewing system? Will there be any changes in patch 6.6? I guess you know it does not work very well at the moment.

    Thanks in advance

  118. "This is mainly due to the fact that the tank is a Tier 8 tank using a Tier 6 gun."

    I don't think so, german tankers could dream only about such a gun on tier 6 (and I mean both of top guns - 100 and 122).

    "Looking at the stats, it is at a disadvantage vs. the Pershing and a major disadvantage vs. the Panther II."

    Are you sure? Pershing and Panther 2 keep that old guns from former tier 8 tanks, they got only better armor than previous tanks.

  119. Hehe... all the russian medium driver that got prefered by the old freaky T-54 are now whining about the new *equal* medium tanks...
    And still don't they understand that the programmers can't make tanks with the same stats and they obviously don't want to make it!
    Every nation, every tank haves it own preferences and positiv and negativ things...
    You just have to learn all the weaknesses and advantages of all tanks, not just for driving them, mostly also to fight them correctly ;)

    If so, why?

  151. As a player that has hit Tier 9 in all 3 nations tech tree, I cannot understand the constant whining abt the US tech tree.

    3 US (non-arty) tanks stand out as brilliant fun to play. The M2 light is possibly the most balanced Tier 2 light and I have gotten most of my Top Guns using it. The T29 is the only T7 tank to carry a proper T9 gun and phenomenal frontal turret armor. Again, not invincible but shitloads of fun. The T95 IMHO is actually overpowered. In the streets of Himmelsdorf, I can roll over 3 Lowes cause their gun cannot reliably pen my front but my gun rips open their 120pt frontal armor.

    A usa always come to the battles at last minute and claim the win, maybe this is why the tanks are not as good as the Russians or Germans. So, just wait til about 4ins of game left, join in, kill some, claim the win ;)
