0.8.6 accuracy change

Good news: our guns are getting more accurate in 0.8.6!

Below is a plot of where your shots would land, before and after the upcoming patch.

Artillery guns are supposedly going to have their accuracy reduced (larger aiming circle) so that, effectively, their accuracy stays the same as now -- but you won't have shots constantly hitting the "edge" of the circle anywhere near as much.

But the difference with arty this time is that now arty and TDs will make the same amount of credits and xp as regular tanks, i think they were making like 33% less in each category than regular tanks

Can you post the link for this info?

Yeah, TDs are going from 67% to 100% and SPGs are going from 50% to 100% of the XP/credits tanks earn.

opps... didn't read the fourm section... thought this was BF related.

I just thought we might be getting a new noob driving around a T1 Cunningham in the clan... oh well

I'm seriously considering buying back the T28 Prot. now. I made some serious bank in that thing and with the buff in credits i could support a fleet of heavies with the money that is possible now.

The Tier 8 Tds are significantly cheaper to maintain than the Tier 9s so the balance goes way up in favor of making an overabundance of silver in a Tier 8 TD now. The Tier 8 big guns can hold their own with any tank on the battlefield so the extra percentage in credits and xp is going to have half of the players salivating and the other half (non TD players) raising holy hell.
