Well, the que works for once, at least for me. It's been a while since I've seen what number I was in the que,

You mean that the 38MB we downloaded yesterday are the new improvements for the 3-d version?
I feel disappointed somehow. I still have an average of 27 FPS rate :(

on south coast i have hard fps brakes... from 40 to 15 idk no why

Does anyone know where is that option to disable bloom effect? I don't see it in ingame settings.

Why does it say all the time server is busy you are in queue... like tried to log in 5 days in a row

No old guns for SU-100m and SU-101 = WTF they have test forums??? people WANT the guns from first test with of course rebalance in ROF aiming time and accurancy no the actual ridiculous top guns specially in the 101.

same prices of the tier 10 camo jobs?? well no more camo for me then thats it

750 gold have the 3 camos in a tier 10

I dislike it that I have to wait in the queue for about 10 - 15 minutes, then change some of the graphics settings (first time on 8.0.3) then have to restart and wait in the queue again :(

Number in queue 2000

I still have performance decrease when moving into bushes/trees and in sniper mode is even worst and WG if u wanna tip how to balance E 100 buff his gun, need to be more acurate and a bit pen(15 cm gun cant penetrate most of tiers X,poor gun realy) thats main prob.
