  1. I would like to thank the Mods this weekend for handling a problem I had on TeamSpeak this weekend quickly and quite nicely!  Your work while free of pay was much appreciated. Thank you!

      1) Just imagine for 1 min Mexico would want to join the Warsaw Pact ...

      2) Afaik Crimea until the '60s belonged to Russia, that is until Chrustschow (a guy from the Ukraine) became the boss.

      3) Putin is no saint, but the West especially US keeped poking Russia even when they were down in the last 25 years. Add to that the contest threat to the russian underbelly by China. Being cooperativ until 2005 get Russia nowhere with the west.

       

      -->> And you guys keep wondering why Russian foreign politics get's more agressive in the last ~10 years.

      The Russians wanted to keep their warm water port ...

      It's much more complicated than that. I know for a fact that russians living in the Baltic States are discriminated nowdays - there they are a minority. I can't say much about Crimea before Putin marched in, but I suspect it wasn't a good place to be a russian. Add history and geopolitics to mix and things don't look that black and white anymore as western media and goverments wants you to believe.

  3. Does anyone know if WOWS 6.0 went live on EU or RU?

  4. On WOWS - In regards to the now tier 1 Captain's Perk Preventive Maintenance which gives a 30% chance preventing module damage ... Are things like the engines and steering gears considered modules, and if you pick this perk would it make the Last Stand perk less necessary???

      For BB, you shouldn't be taking LS, you're engine and rudder are knocked out by basically nothing other than torps. I'm not sure about all the new skills, but I don't think the module survival is as important as fire prevention or aa though.

      no I was going to grab a bunch of the now really good tier 3 perks ... not even getting RDF

      LS is, and always has been, a skill aimed at destroyers and cruisers.

  5. Shouldn't the battle cry of the Swedish tanks be Panzer Vort?

  6. Could someone do me a huge solid and cut and paste the Division 1.5 patch notes in a PM to me?? Thanks ahead of time.

      Update 1.5

      Game changes

      Added World Tier 5 bracket (230+ GS)

      Enemy NPCs are level 34.

      Maximum Gear Score raised to 256.

      Heroic Incursions are now available in Tier 5 only.

       

      Named Gear items have been implemented in the game. One piece is available for each Gear Slot and each one comes with a unique Talent. Named Gear items can only be dropped in World Tier 5 or in Survival game mode.

      [Mask] Ferro’s oxygen mask: Players can move and shoot while under burn status effect.

      [Knee Pads] Shortbow championship pads: Grenades have shortened fuse timer.

      [Holster] Colonel Bliss’ holster: Powerful improvements for sidearms.

      [Gloves] Skulls MC gloves: Increased damage when no gear set bonuses are active.

      [Chestpiece] Barrett’s bulletproof: Powerful bonuses when skills are on cooldown.

      [Backpack] NinjaBike messenger bag: Less DZ loot and DZ XP lost when dying in the Dark Zone.

      Enemy Armor Damage now functions in PVP: damage calculation in PvP ignores a percentage of the target’s armor equal to one third of the shooter’s Enemy Armor Damage.

      Enemy Armor Damage is now a Major bonus instead of a Minor bonus. With enemy Armor Damage now applying to PvP, this will create an interesting situation where players will have to decide between increasing their Armor or Armor Damage.

      It can now roll on Backpacks, Masks, Kneepads, Holsters and Gear Mods.

      Roll values have been lowered to compensate for the fact that it can roll on more item types.

      Rolls on existing Kneepads will be scaled to appropriate values. Note that Enemy Armor Damage will still be considered as a Minor bonus on existing Kneepads.

      Enemy Armor Damage will be removed from existing Masks and replaced with another minor bonus.

      Stagger now functions in PvP: high-stagger weapons (Shotguns and Marksman rifles primarily) will now cause the target’s aim to flinch.

      NPCs now have chances to drop crafting materials. Chances to drop higher quality increases with World Tiers.

      Season Pass Open World Supply Drops will now scale with World Tier. Opening a supply drop in World Tier 1 will reward with Gear Score 163, 182 in world tier 2, etc.

      Items in the Scavenger crate in the Base of Operations will now scale with World Tier.

      Vendors will now scale to player’s Gear Score, independently from the World Tier they’re in. This means that the Gear Score and currency value of goods they sell will adapt to the player’s Gear Score.

      We have adjusted the Credits and Phoenix Credits rewards for Main Missions, High Value Targets and Incursions to better scale with World Tier. This overall results in an increase starting from World Tier 4 and above.

       

      Weapons

      All Weapon types

      Hip fire now has stronger recoil than aiming down sights. The strength of this effect varies between weapon types. From most impacted to least impacted: Marksman Rifles, LMGs, Assault Rifles, SMGs, Shotguns, Pistols.

      SMG

      Vector 45 ACP & First Wave Vector 45 ACP: base magazine size increased to 25.

      MP7: base damage increased by 16%.

      LMG

      M60: base damage reduced by 3%.

      M60 & M249 now take longer to reach full accuracy when fired.

      Hungry Hog: base damage reduced by 13%, to prevent a scaling overlap with the implementation of World Tier 5.

      Shotguns

      Lowered the strength of aim assist for Shotguns.

      Lowered the effect of accuracy on Shotguns.

      Headshot base bonus reduced from 80% to 60%.

      Showstopper: Accuracy while in cover has been reduced.

      M870: base damage reduced by 12%.

      Added 12 new weapon types. These weapon types can only be dropped in World Tier 5:

      MG5 Light Machinegun

      Infantry MG5 Light Machinegun

      Famas Assault Rifle

      Tactical UMP-45 Submachinegun

      Snub nosed Rhino Pistol

      Rhino Pistol

      Rhino Special Pistol

      Added 4 new High-End named weapons (available at various gear scores depending on source):

      Golden Rhino

      Urban MDR Assault Rifle

      Tommy Gun

      Thompson M1928

       

      Gear Sets

      Final Measure

      4 pieces: Grenades can now be picked up every 8 seconds instead of 15 seconds.

      Hunter’s Faith

      3 pieces: Headshot bonus reduced from 20% to 10%.

      FrontLine has been added:

      2 pieces: +15% Protection from Elites
