test is live!!!

[KanonenVogel19]

Yes! Finally!    

 

Unfortunately you didn't post any information on the changes, so now we all have to sit and wait patiently...

 

Anyhow, looking forward to the changes, and personally I hope that you've eliminated the entire premium ammo concept and instead focused on having different shells for different situations that all cost (about) the same.

 

See you on Sandbox 

[SlyMeerkat]

Sounds good

The test already starts next week, so enjoy your weekend with one of our current events (e.g. try out the new Kingtiger ©) and check out the details after.

How can we enjoy the weekend when the thoughts keep running towards what you've planned with the shell rework? 

 

Regarding the Königstiger, do you have any plans for the Deutsche Tiger II (H) ? 

Maybe we could have that one as a marathon reward? 

[Denton_0451]

I hope this new concept will be better than the one outlined in the Supertest news post. Can't wait to see what you came up with.

I think it was a template for the captured Tiger so they could balance it without revealing their plans of making it a captured vehicle and there are no plans to release it to the public.

Mostly because any presumed changes are subject-to-change. Upcoming tests will determine how far these changes will go.

Interesting. I don't usually take part in tests, but this time I might actually do. This will be a crucial change of the game; we should all do our part to help Wargaming not to make a mess of it

I'm curious to see what they've come up with. Personally, I think the change is doomed to fail if there is no massive overhaul of armour layouts as well, i.e. more nerfs of massively over-armoured vehicles such as, for example, the 430U. But well, we shall see, won't we ...

When it comes to this: guys, we could really use your feedback. Also, testing is a good way of checking the upcoming changes. It always is

The game will still be playable even if they completely removed all high penetration (premium) shells. A lot of players play this game with a no-premium-ammo policy and still do decently, it's just more difficult. And nothing stops them from reducing armor a little bit afterwards if they get tanks that overperform. But I think it's difficult to do all changes in one go.

Except that you are asking us to participate, so it would be useful to have an idea of what mechanic we are testing this time round.  If not, then sorry, I've wasted enough time on the test server in the past trying to test new tanks/features, only to find practically everyone fires full gold ammo, making any such testing pointless.

when are you able to download the sanbox client?

 Full details of the changes will be announced just before the test, so stay tuned!

The problem with giving out any numbers is that some people might take them for changes already set in stone. That's why, to avoid any possible confusion, we'll announce the changes as soon as they will be ready to be tested.

Still..you could have shared some details about the concept of the changes. You only told us it is something different from the last one. This is a news post without any news.

But hey! Now you have a date which you can look forward to, I know because myself, I will be looking forward to those tests.

Well, before testing we already know nerfing damage wont work for sure. Nerfing OP armour should be done the same time as prem ammo testing. They go hand in hand. IS3 has to be able to pen Type 5, otherwise, there's no balance. With prem ammo or without.

Will not be testing anything without knowing the details of what I'm spending time testing.  Knowing the details beforehand will not sway my conclusions.

That's the thing, we cannot know for sure before the actual tests.

As it is written in the article, more information will pop up just before the tests.
