Fire up your Shermans and gas up your Wolverines, American Tanks are being privately tested and are hopefully going to make a appearance soon. Screenshot gallery of the tanks here.

Fun fact, there's two different types of daddy long legs, one has no poison glands once so ever, while the other cannot harm humans with such tiny mouths but do have poison glands. While the ones that are considered to be "The most poisonous spiders ever" have no backing at all as the spider has no way breaking human skin to inject anything. It's also why there been no scientific study to show the effects to this poison on humans because the chances actually getting harmed by this spider is so small. Also another fun fact about the Brazilian wandering spider is that it's venom causes painful erections that can outright cause your junk to stop functioning, assuming you live that is. It also causes your whole body to feel like it's on fire while your muscles loose control and you suffocate from sudden lack of working lungs.

If you need to skimp on things to save cost cut out things like expensive DVD drives or flashy cases. If you get a ok case you can just take the side off of it to help with cooling/cleaning. But like Ford said, the major things for a gaming PC are video cards, CPUs, and hard drives. Everything else is more or less icing on the cake. Also for cases try and get a really roomy one if you plan on upgrading the shit out of it later, I've had to switch my case a few times to keep up with the bricks of video cards and giant heat-sinks for CPUs. But if you don't want to build your own Best Buy actually sells some fairly decent gaming rigs at a good cost.

Ah the sickly sour smell of a political cycle jerk. At the rate this threads going it should boil down to a pissing contest quickly.

If you're paranoid about loosing your credits, buy a whole bunch of tanks, the soft wipe notes said you'd get a full refund from your tanks. Anyways they just released some new patch notes again. They also said something about adding "weight" to tanks that are in a platoon. Sounds like it could make the balancing system consider platoons as more dangerous than a random grouping. And there was something in there that changed the visibilities of tank destroyers so when they fire they are easier to spot. Oh and the expendables are pretty cool. For like 3000 credits you can get a repair kit that speeds up repairs, a fire extinguisher, or some motor oil to enhance engine performance. All of which only works for one battle.

Ok the Russians are getting another patch really soon and the developers have put their foot down saying that if this goes well we'll finally get a fucking update. Consumables and hookers for everyone! Just get ready to download an ungodly amount of updates, we're backed up like 4-5 patches now so probably look at 400-500MB of shit. This was right from a dev so hopefully they won't get high and wander off or anything. Here's the developer's response to everything so far. It also looks like they'll be getting a server on the East Coast and expanding the current servers to help with lag issues. Also It looks like I broke NDA by posting updates and shit in this thread, but don't tell nobodies!

Gotta look on the bright side, at least when we do get a update it will add in a whole ton of shit. I mean we're getting expendables which so far looks to be cheap stuff (around 5000 credits) that boosts something on your tanks. So far I've seen mention to two different kinds of oil (improve mobility/top speed maybe?) and they have premium expendables which do god knows what. And to top it off we get two new maps, platoon battles, a JagdTiger, and improvements to the way the game looks. They're also changing it so HE shells can no longer bounce off and fixed Tip99.

Wasn't this guy just cleared by the officers as someone who does not hack?

Do you have hot, single, relatives and free food? If so it might cover the costs of flying down there. (Also congratulations)

They're on the southern hemisphere, see without editing we'd look to be sideways just in the other direction.

I just asked it about how what is real is dependent on perspectives and it sat there thinking. Then it reset. Did I win?

New patch notes came up some of the noticeable are new tanks. http://forum.worldoftanks.com/index.php?/t...ch-coming-soon/ EDIT: Never mind, looks like the devs feel that the game is not quite up to standards and plan on doing a softwipe with the new patch which will be out soon. Holy buttfuck it went from us getting a patch in two weeks (said just over two weeks ago) to another ETA. They also might change what we're entailed to for the soft wipe as they mentioned the details being released later. We might also not get patched for another few updates if they feel unsatisfactory with the latest patch.

Star Ruler is a 4x game that is somewhat comparable to Sins of Solar Empire, if Sins of a Solar Empire was on steroids. Star Ruler's website. They list the main features on the front page but here's some of the main ones. Customizable ships. Extensive modding support. A easy to follow UI. Vast randomly generated universes. They also have a stream up every now and then that shows off the gameplay and it's pretty god damn bitchen. One example is the guy had equipped his ship with a energy leech weapon that drained all the energy from a enemy ship then uses it to power a giant ass superweapon to blow it to bits. Or another is the guy showed you can build ships however big you wanted, to prove this he cheated himself up to a whole ton of resources and built a ship the size of the galaxy and used it to blow up enemy stars and planets. So look into this game if you're thinking about getting a new strategy game or if you've just got a itch for a good 4x game.

Well to be fair Tila should have known this sort of shit would happen, especially when she does tend to do stupid shit for publicity. Andrew W.K did the same thing but he took it and just sat there pissing them off while they covered each other in garbage. I don't think they give anyone any respect unless they are somehow related to ICP. I mean honestly look at the commercials for "The Gathering" it doesn't get more pathetic than saying you have a chance to get laid if you attend.

Yes.

Colleges around here get this all the time, someone goes around with the exact same petition and just about everyone signs it thinking they're being helpful and cool.

Just as a heads up Steam is having a sale on this game so it's now at 10$. If you've been holding out on trying this game out now is the time.

Don't forget about the American tree that will probably be out after launch. The dev's put an estimate at American's being released around September this year.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-tays...entral-11003456 I'm really not too surprised considering how they handled Crackdown 2 and APB. I mean the games had a cool concept and all it's just that they where pretty god damn lazy when it came to getting the bugs kinked out. Of course I guess this is what happens when you make a fairly buggy MMO in today's market, then try to back it with a re-skinned version of an older game. EDIT: Here's a Realtime Employee's take on things. EDIT2: And some depressing tweets from another Employee.

I want to know where the fuck you go to see 3D pornos. All we got in Idaho is nuclear reactors and fucking spud farms, we didn't get anything useful like a 3D porno house or a pleasure dome. :C

The European beta is still beta, we haven't even gotten the new patch yet. So far only the Russians are out of beta and into full on release just so they can tweak the store and find any last balancing issues. Also for which side has better tanks heres a rundown. Russian medium tanks are fast as fuck and can mount some pretty decent guns. The early heavy tanks they get blow hard while the later stuff is arguably better than the German counterparts. The Russia SPGs are worse than early German counterparts but they get later tier stuff like the S-51 which make them top SPGs. Russian TD's are kinda tricky and better suited for hit and run. Most of the Russia TD's are more or less just built around butting as large of a gun as they can on treads and hoping it the best which makes the armor pretty shabby but they can kill just about anything they point their barrel at. German Medium tanks take advantage of sloped armor fairly early in the tree so their armor is pretty damn good and they keep a decent speed all throughout. The German heavy tanks are absolute offensive monsters thanks to thick sloped armor and having some good options cannon-wise. German SPG's are a little more armored and pack a pretty decent punch but they don't go higher than tier 5. German TD's are perfect for defense and providing support to offence thanks to thick sloped armor and getting some nasty guns with high penetration but most of the stuff under tier 5 is a pain in the ass.

And if they have chaos I hope we can choose our god to follow instead of getting shoehorned into a child friendly god like that pussy Tzeentch. I want to play as a fucking noise marine and spread the word of rock to the loyalists.

They opened up the gold shop for the Russians, so far 12.50$ will get you 2500 gold which is a months worth of premium. But they might tweak things a bit later on so that price might not be solid.

Is it true that Foster's is Australian for beer?

If this game lacks customization over armor color and such it will be pretty disappointing. Massive nerd bonus points if I can switch my Imperial Guardsman's looks out with a Elysian droptroop or one of them deathworld jungle fighters, instead of default Cadian or something boring. Also weren't most Titan pilots slaved into their Titans? I could have sworn that there was a comic book that detailed the life of a Titan and it had the same crewmen over the course like a few thousand years.
