Three Clusters RU EU and NA
Sever down time for the three. Patch Notes for the three with the NA times. Given notes for the servers are the same.
RU. June 2 from 6:00 to 6:45 (MSC) game servers will not be available due to technical work, during which the client-server update will be released.
EU. The World of Tanks servers will be unavailable on 02.06.2017 from 06:00 to 06:45 CEST due to this update.
NA. There are plans to release Micropatch 0.9.19_1 on June 2nd, 2017
Maintenance will begin at 02:00 Pacific Time (09:00 UTC) and will last approximately one hour.
During maintenance, the World of Tanks servers will be unavailable.
Patch notes:
- Fixed the issue with accessing missions from the congratulatory window that appears after a player completes a mission in the battle.
- Fixed the issue with the inability to use the battle mode selector at low resolutions due to the overlapping field indicating the number of bonds.
- Fixed the issue with the display of text at the welcoming screen of the Ranked Battles mode.
- Fixed some technical issues.
Information.
When maintenance has completed please restart World of Tanks using the launcher file (WOTLauncher.exe) and ensure your game client updates properly.
If automatic updating has been enabled in the launcher settings, make sure that the client has finished updating.
In my opinion the biggest most retarded change is the control scheme for the autoaim and lock turret.
It’s so stupid that you simply cannot look around while holding right click. And if you want to look around you can only do it while not looking at the enemy.
Otherwise you autoaim instead of for example aiming at the drive wheel of a tracked tank when you want to look around.
This is indeed a very, very stupid change. I was looking through the controls to see if something was missing there, until I learned that autoaim is the same now as locking the turret….
Who decided this? Clearly somebody not playing this game at all. And why did noone stop that person from making this decision?
Another really shitty thing they changed in the settings is the ability to choose your own resolution.
I play on a shitty laptop with a trackpad and the screen gets squashed now because WG insists that the resolution has to be set automatically.
This is such a basic setting for any PC game since the beginning of time. I’ve been playing dawn if war recently. The first one. That game is from like 2000 and still has more options than WoT.
WG is just dumbing down all the options it seems so the idiots and incapable morons don’t have to worry.
there is a solution for the AA/turret lock simply you need to bind same key for example RMB to both lock and “off” target in preferences.xml
Where is the preferences.xml file located? :/
In C:/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/Wargaming.net/WorldofTanks
This folder is hidden so make sure you can reach it
Full path C:\Users\youruser\AppData\Roaming\Wargaming.net\WorldOfTanks
appdata is hidden by default so make sure yo can reach it
Thanks. Will try.
This patch could’ve been so much better without the improved equipment, the directives/new reserves were nice as the 6th sense one really helps if you have a LT crew that still doesn’t have 6th sense. I also liked the SOS and BIA compatibity so I can easily use female crew in tanks that have 5+ crew members. I suggest they change the new equipment to cosmetic things or even make it convertable to gold or maybe train crew to 100% or reset skills completely without having to use gold
I don’t think the new equipment is that bad especially IF it is going to be available to get bonds through ranked battles too as WG has said.
Then again it was WG who said it and I don’t trust a single thing out of their lying filthy mouths.
The difference it would make is minute and wouldn’t effect the majority of random battles. E.g. An OBJ 140 with inthe new fancy equipment and directives all aimed at increasing DPM only gets a 0.15 second reload boost.
The biggest differences will be in strongholds and clan wars for those who play it. I’m in a decent clan. But we nowhere near the top and if we meet top clans like we do a lot already in advances and strongholds etc then we are at a huge disadvantage. The top level clans already have the larger air strikes and all of them will be kitted out with the new equipment. When 15 of them have the new equipment and maybe a couple on my clan have it…thats where the biggest difference lies.
You can simply paste %appdata%\Wargaming.net into ‘Run’ (Win+R) or the address field of Explorer for convinience.
meanwhile, the amount of negative feedback/opinions of the improved equipment and directives on the WoT Asia forums has caused the the admins there to voice that they are taking it up with their production/development team to review…
really up in the air if WoT Asia will or won’t receive improved equipment and directives in 9.19
Eh and this new tier 8 stupid mm, it fucin hard playing all the games with tier 10.
WG don’t really care Sank …
as far as WG is concerned ‘there’ plans and schedules for WOT is just going fine there next big thing in late summer is new (old) HD Maps of the Maps we already have (which no one asked for btw.
So regards MM as you and everyone by now should realise WG has fine tuned the MM to exactly what it thinks WG itself needs – not the players.
T8 Premiums in endless Tier 10 battles?
*regardless of the ‘new’ MM template this again all going to WG plan, T10’s need T8’s to farm easy WN8 – or as WG see’s it a ‘bonus’ for playing T10’s
see Dev’s NA and EU Q/A in March 2017 with Thaine on YouTube regards new MM template, joked T10’s deserve east T8 battles, only fair and fun and he was serious.
as ‘T10 only battles’ aren’t fun with both teams single tier at T10 (yes you read that right.
Modmakers can get at it again; it’s now 0.9.19.0.1
Good article
