19.03.2015 Q&A
Not much today. The test starts at 18:00 or so.
- In 9.7, AMX CDC will become available in the ingame store for gold;
- According to developers, the AMX 30B gameplay resembles the M48 Patton gameplay a lot: it has a very good view range, depression, aimtime and reload time, it is not susceptible to engine burning and ammorack explosions. It'll be a good vehicle (RG: I do agree with that);
- AMX Prototype needs a LOT of XP to unlock, because it's a transfer from LT class to MT class, the same situation as with Lorraine;
- On Live Oaks map, most of the opportunities to take long shots (sniping spots) were left untouched, the only difference are the changes for the upper base.

Supertest Mauschen - No Gold Ammo
Hello warriors,
a piece of information was leaked from the supertest. Remember how everyone was angry about the 15cm E-100 gun on tier 9 on the Mauschen (VK4502B replacement)? Well, as it turns out, the developers decided not to give that gun any gold ammo on tier 9. Just AP and HE shells.
No gold for you, goldspammers!

0.9.7 Effect on FPS
Hello warriors,
Russian player Dibie benchmarked the 0.9.7 performance on his PC (high-end i5, GTX 780) on a replay. The blue line represents the 0.9.6 client, the yellow line represents 0.9.7 client with minimap turned on and the red line represents the 0.9.7 client with minimap turned off. Left bar represents FPS, below is the time line of the replay.
As you can see, not only there is a drop in FPS compared to 0.9.6, but the minimap influences the FPS as well (positively). This FPS drop between patches is unexpected and Storm promised he'd investigate.
