The "It's fixed!" feature will generally always be on a Wednesday unless there is a schedule conflict or too many things already on that day.

At least for the time being.

Guys, we are not going to be denying anything just yet. Really. Its just too soon and it serves no purpose other than setting up the expectation we are just always going to do it time and time again.

We have some more news coming this week including more news on the Battle Pass rewards, 2 of which we already revealed last week with the M6A2E1 and French P-39Q-25.

In the meantime, sit tight, explore the rest of the forum, enjoy the May sales and stay tuned to the news over the coming days and weeks

There is a whole forum outside of this topic. If there is nothing to talk about here, feel free to use the 99.9% of it that you are not using by everyone posting off topic here.

If you want to predict / wishlist then there is also a topic for that too

Nobody is forced to use and discuss everything in this one singular topic. Its a choice thats being made to do so.

No im here anyway, as I said yesterday there is no reason to chime in with the denials and start crushing dreams when some people are on another planet already when it comes

That lasted long.

Do you really think that would stop it?

Look at how far off the M6 discussion went on and how far that went off topic. Or the previous 2 "M" aircraft discussions of which will not be named?

Yeah ok sure. Ill do you a deal

Ill stop with teasing if you can all go 1 week without tagging me here

Sounds fair?

To be honest in this thread this time there really would not have been a point. It went so far off topic or over the top that it just wasn't worth it.

Stop with what exactly? I dont accuse anyone of "always complaining".

There will always be people that dislike something, its literally impossible to please 100% of players. Its just a given fact.

But nobody gets accused

Too soon to be talking about BRs right now. We never do that until its pretty much in game, so I dont know why you feel that would change here.

Too much of that is subject to change and in the past whenever we have mentioned a BR that turns out not to be final, we just get blamed with "yOu LiEd To Us". So we are not doing that anymore.

In game designations are based on tree position and how they are used in game. These can change over time (as with the most recent changes announced this week) but they are centered around how they are in game more than a 1:1 for IRL designations. Like Strike aircraft.

You dont have too, just take it to the correct topic is all

https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/245815-m6a2e1-heavy-tank/

No comparison at all. Barely anything really exists on the O-I and its not even close to what we are talking about here which is a fully built and very well documented tank with a slab of armour on the front that it was intended to have.

That's why nobody claims the Maus is a "hull down monster" too. Neither of these tanks are meant for that. Both are heavy tanks on the higher end of the scale.

For you perhaps, but a lot of people wanted this tank for a very long time and as the general reception has shown its very much something people want.

This happens a lot, which is why we don't just use a singular source.

Another good example of this Yefim Gordon's series of books on Soviet aircraft. He makes several mistakes all over, but several other authors cite him as a source, so before you know it, you have 10 people all saying a MiG-21 could do or carry something it couldn't.

My dude:

Its a saturday.

Spamming "GiB SoRcEs" over and over does not mean I can just magic them up from the developers at your wish and call unfortunately.

People have already shared several of the sources used in this topic several pages back (which you ignored) such as Hunnicutt and others which give full details, drawings of the plates size, position, thickness and everything else required:

The initial reaction to the tank on all platforms by everyone vs the small number of people taking this discussion round and ro

Again, people that claim this tank works as a "hull down monster" are not really taking into consideration this tank is the size of the Maus almost. There's hardly any situations in standard gameplay on most maps where this tank is going hull down.

We do. You disagree, thats very clear. But not everyone does and the majority of players are happy with the implementation of the vehicle.

Really not sure how you claim to this conclusion without a tinfoil hat.

Just because a vehicle is in another game does not mean the model is "copied" from anyone. If so games would be suing each other all day.

The model is our own, created by us for us.

I dont have them to hand as im not a developer and its a Saturday, people have already posted many sources on the tank and its armour.

Im not sure what confusion theres still is here.

There are always people that disagree with pretty much everything and anything added to the game and the way we choose to add it. Whats important is making the most players happy which is the case here.

Everyone can see the reactions very clearly, including the developers

We have simply added the tank in its intended complete form. Thats all there is to it.

You have made it very clear that you disagree with that, but this circular discussion has gone on long enough.

We have explained the situation and why it is being introduced in its complete form.

if you think this is the sort of tank that is easy to go hull down, I think you have the wrong tank in mind. Its almost as tall as the Maus.

No. The version we had in game was an amalgamation of all Panther projects. It will remain only for those that already have it.

Our stance has not changed at all. The tank was based on its fully finalized and intended design based on source material. Only the frontal plate is the additional armour. Not doing so would have created a pretty pointless reward.

We have created the tank to its original specifications as if it would have seen combat if the project was finalized. There was no need for them to add the plate on the prototypes as they were just for tes
