Wot console

Hi,
I've decided to give a try ChromieCraft but I have some performance problem (which I think can be related to WotLK client rather than server itself).
I have some problems with FPS stuttering. Basically client runs in ~60FPS (windowed) or ~120FPS (fullscreen). The problem is every ~2nd second it stutter to half of avg FPS (so ~30 in windowed and ~60 in fullscreen). I can see this behavior even on login screen.
I've played with v-sync, tripple buffering, cursor hardware, reduce input lag, resolution, refresh rate, details settings - no difference at all in any config (except with v-sync turned on - then my FPS drops about ~20%). I've tried also to limit FPS both from game

console maxFps XX 

and from nVidia graphic panel - the result is the same (FPS stutter to half of max).
What I've notice is that client uses both GPUs (Intel UHD for ~90% & RTX 3050Ti for ~15-30%) and in the moment of stutter UHD usage is spiking and RTX usage is dropping (both for 3-5%).
Any ideas how can I fix it or where to look for help with it?
*Game is fresh download, without any addons. Tested in BE starting zone.
** My setup is Legion 5 15ITH6 (i5-11400H & RTX 3050Ti)
​
Solution: The problem was "Lenovo Vantage" app - specifically "Hybrid Mode". After disabling it the integra is gone from task manager and client utilizes only RTX graphic. Now it works smoothly without any stutter :)

I tried downloading the discord to be in a more active wot console community. They got 120,000 members and 20,000 online at the time I was just on. I can see why WG has pretty much abandoned this sub and the forum. Discord is where it’s at these days for gaming.
We only got “24,000” total with usually only 75-100 online at any given time and it’s the same dozen dudes here who ever post or reply. The majority of the 24,000 either lurks or more likely joined but ignore the sub. Maybe I’m too old (42) but Discord is super confusing and I have no clue how to use it or do anything in there. There’s like so many sections. I got frustrated and uninstalled. Y’all stuck with me for now but I’m a little bitter that any feedback we post here will generally be ignored by WG.

There's an Abrams, a Challenger 2 and a t72bu. I was thinking, on the pc side how would you feel about modern tanks being in the game? They would most likely be completely separate from the tier system.

Obviously we are taking a gentle parenting approach with our kiddos. We recently got custody of them due to reasons I won’t mention here. I’ve known them for maybe a week and a half tops. When we talked to a child advocate representing them we were told we would lose custody if we did not enforce some kind of limit on screen time with them. The limit they originally suggested seemed harsh so we negotiated a more lenient 2 hour limit, with exceptions for the four of us as a family watching movies (she specifically said no family game time exceptions). Ever since the kids have been begging to spend time with their grandma and stay the night at her house. Last night I found out why. Grandma has been following none of the rules set forth by the child advocate undermining us as parents, and the kids best interests. The reason for the screen time limit was their extremely poor sleep patterns we send them to bed at 9 but the often stay up in their rooms reading or coloring till 12-1 am in the morning. They’ll then get up at 5am asking for breakfast and making all kinds of noise. I get it they are adjusting and although I don’t agree with screen time limits I know that the child advocate is only looking out for us and the kids.
I have an app that allows me to track their screen time on their switch as well as the Xbox. I have left the option to have the consoles simply shut down off since they do play online games and sometimes need to finish their match before they can stop playing. My step children while at grandma’s went according to the app and my sister in law bless her heart has been playing games for pretty much the entire they’ve time been there. Sadly my step the youngest is using grandma’s old wii and my step son is using her PlayStation so I cannot see how visually exactly how long they went over. (My step sister lives there and didn’t know about the screen time limits). My step sis also mention that she had seen my step son playing COD for at least 5 hours today so far. And he was playing Lego Star Wars an additional 3 hours yesterday, I also noticed that my step son after having played Minecraft and WOT and additional hour using his sisters login to avoid the alarm on the switch for screen time.
Obviously we will not be letting grandma babysit or spend unsupervised time with the kids as she cannot respect the boundaries set the the kids advocate. It is clear however they have both been lying about screen time usage at grandma’s and using visits as an excuse to not follow the rules.
Now I’m gonna give the kids a chance to fess up to this since I know they are aware of the rules they choose to break and actively participated in doing so. The question is what would be a good consequence for them? I obviously don’t want to be harsh especially if they choose to be honest about the extra hours.
I also know we will be switching to the child advocates original recommendation of 30 minutes of screen time with a once a week optional family movie night if this keeps up.
Any ideas?

WOT is your favorite aspect of World of Tanks/Console

My monk is at light load (10.6 pounds) and as this is early on all he has on him are a ring +1, his starting bracers, and a masterwork quarterstaff. Removing and re-equipping those does nothing. His wisdom still isn't getting added to his AC. I took a dip in rogue and tried equipping and removing armor and that doesn't fix it. The entire party is also collectively at light load. Also Lann is getting the wisdom to AC perfectly fine and clearly displayed.
​
The problem seemed to happen when I rerolled from Scaled Fist to Sensei and I was hoping to avoid redoing the last 3 hours if any sort of fix exists. I'm on the Xbox X.

Coming from war thunder wondering the speed of research in WOT console

Well atleast you tried guys 🥲.
When our devs did controversial changes (6.0) update us wot console player revolted and it didn't do shit. Instead all that happened was that they completely ignored anything we said. Now when you guys revolted they immediately reversed the changes to which makes me envious of you guys.
The reason I'm making this post is that so I can say if it seems you guys are about to go down a similar path that WoT console players are gonna go down. Heres how it gonna go :::::Devs are gonna start ignoring yall, they will continue with their terrible fucking changes despite yalls feed back, and soon there will hardly be any f2p player in the game::::
Now if the devs of this actually do listen to yall and by some miracle make the game better for you guys (which I sincerely hope they do) then yalls efforts weren't in vain and in the end we would have won the battle.
TL;DR YOU GUYS MIGHT GO DOWN THE SAME WAY WOT CONSOLE DID BUT IF NOT THEN GOOD LUCK!!!!

​
QNA summary:

• Can you do a roadmap or something? - This has come up before, A lot of conversations has to happen to get thing done. Such as getting the Italian TD’s ready for the gladiator season. Our devs were really trying to fix the tanks, working on each tank individually as it couldn't be done with a simple fix for all. Its mostly concerns about delivering a roadmap promise. Such as “big content update in october and halloween stuff” but promising stuff for a specific month is very difficult to stay on track. Development cycles changes and we often have to shift. The Double barrel USSR tanks is another example. Delivering on a roadmap is difficult to give you all the details.
  • This was quite a long answer and i hope i got a good enough summary. (zorin)
• Can the Medals tab be removed and re-integrated on the main PBRS? - This has been talked about with the user designer. We know players want to see all the rewards and stuff on one screen and it is something we are looking at and there are proposals.
• Can we add a Tab in the garage menu to see if your clan mates are online like friends? - Currently there is a separate pop up for friends. This is a good suggestion. On if this will be a new tab or on top of the social tab. We are thinking about plans for next year that are clan focused, so ill make a tickets for this so its on our minds.
• Can you make stat tanks previewable before buying equipment and consumables. - good idea, will take UI work to dynamically show that. This is something we can make another investigation ticket.
• Tanks filters separate for WW2 and CW? - Good quality of life change, albeit low priority. Will follow up on that one.
• Can you return the contract compatible filter back? - I honestly forgot we had that filter. Good suggestion.
• Filter on the Logs? Just show the Battles? - Another Good idea. Some players like to see the OPs while some just want to see the battles.
• Nation and tier filter on the stat page? - Will have to investigate the filter suggestion. Lots of filter questions this week. Its a balance between where we prioritize the UI work on Big jobs and these quality of life changes.
• Can you make it so custom games allow cross mode battles? - Its been a bit since we did any changes to custom games. Right now the game isn't setup to allow the garage to merge. This isn't an impossible task to accomplish. There are other parts we have to account for such as allowing all the tanks on the tank reel we will have to update the UI on the tank filter. Right now custom games are on a lower priority, but this is a good idea.
• Will there ever be new games modes? - Yes, will have more to share next season. Supertest may have already had some hands-on time.
• Remove damage penalty on WW2 PvE? - Possibly. We can start an investigation on that. We didn't want to make it too easy for veteran players, thus when we developed Co-op there is a bit of reduction against bots. This does affect your earnings and we already adjust earnings so that it is lower compared to multiplayer.
• Smoke in WW2? - Smoke was integral in the development of CW. We haven't had discussion on if it should be added in WW2, but looking at the Chat it looks like most want it to stay only in CW. No current plans for it in WW2
• Any new mechanics for CW? ATGMS that explode over the turret? - No dates, but we are thinking of new ideas. No drones and satellite strike and stuff as thats too modern.
• Changes the heavy tank Icon for E3 to a MBT icon? - Your right in that all the tanks in this era are all pretty advance. Early on in Development of CW, we were thinking that all these tanks are pretty much MBT’s and we cant really say this is a medium this is a heavy, thus we want to identify tanks by their role. We ultimately didn't end up going that direction. We played with the idea such as a front line tank, assault tank (mediums), snipers and scouts. No we are not making a new icon to answer your question.
• Why does the gun move once my auto lock stops - Your gun follows your camera when your not in auto lock.
• Can the efficiency of RB-RT auto lock be reduced? - We can always follow up on an investigation. This is a very difficult task. Auto lock defaults to looking at the center point of the tank. (talks about how some tanks are good against auto locks) If were to make any tuning adjustments it may make it incredible difficult to hit things and useless. We want to have a balance were it may be useful. There may be alternative to this problem.
• Could the CW tanks have their gravity adjusted back to normal in Custom games? - Maybe when we have more time to add more options in custom games such as gravity adjustment.
• Can base caping become impossible until the last 5 mins? - We can understand this can lead to poor games when it is capped quickly. This comes up from time to time. There are different ways for us to tackle this.
• Will it be possible to sort the operations better? - This was a discussion I had with the user experience guy. It is something we are thinking about. It's still early right now, so I can't say much.
• Can we get the old aiming reticle as an option? - We did a number of HUD changes back in December, and the reticle was a topic of discussion. We started to bring more info back to the center of the screen. We most likely will not make it customizable as that's harder to develop for. Do note that there is a good portion of people that like the current reticle. This does not mean this is a forever no, just its a continuous investigation to try to make both kinda players happy.
• Possibility of making the mini map larger? - This is something we can consider. Will have to run it by the UI engineer to see if this would be a performance issue.
• Since names cant be shown on the mini map, maybe we can highlight a player to see if they are spotted? - Interesting idea. Say you want to watch out for a specific tank and keep an eye out for it. WIll make a ticket for this.

Giveaway:

• None this week, but i need some ideas on what to base my random free-bies that i give out. Any suggestions?
• Anyhow also while your looking at this, how did you guys enjoy the new format / quality of qustions this week?

Hey guys, last time I played the game was around 2017 or 2018 at max. I remember maps where rain fall, snow fall, blizzards and sandstorms were prevalent. I don't see them in any of the wot console videos I watched recently. Did something major happen to the maps and weather effects?

I miss it when there was more tech tree tanks than premium tanks. I miss when tanks weren't balanced around gold shells. I miss when teir 8s weren't comparable to teir 10 in anyway.
Now everything is a blatantly overpowered in someway because it won't sell otherwise. Everyone has a abundance silver now so they don't hesitate to slings gold rounds. Majority of my games I'm damaged by gold rounds, usually the first shot I receive is a gold round.
I haven't unlocked field mods yet so this is juat speculation. Field mods below teir 7 are there solely to seal club, no one but seal clubbers are going to benefit from it. I sure don't because I have to elite the tank to get access to it. And then at that point why stick around? I personally hate tier 1 through 6 so I never stick around more than I need too.
Side not, I never got to play wot in its glory days on PC, i was stuck on the disowned console version.

Regarding the Italian TDs:

• Originally the new TT line was set to release May 23rd.
• This is being moved to June 27th.
• This is due to technical issues with the tanks. The turrets of the tanks are unlike most others in that they are not horizontal. This requires additional aiming mechanics that allow the barrel to account for the diagonal movement and keep the barrel and aim point aligned.
  • While aiming in sniper view, rotating the turret to either the left or right side causes the camera to swing (which makes you feel like you are on a boat).
  • In both camera views (3rd person & sniper view), we encountered problems where the aim point and the barrel separated from each other when rotating the turret. (This issue has been fixed)
• These issues make it difficult to engage enemy tanks and would cause players to have an uncomfortable and unfamiliar player experience.
• Our main priority toward you (aside from delivering the best gaming experience we can) is to make sure that our tank models come as close as possible to their real-life counterparts. As a result, we design our tanks with this in mind, which sometimes creates unexpected problems. Rest assured that we're working hard on resolving these issues so that you get to enjoy your upcoming tank destroyers to their fullest potential.
• Link to Youtube stream at 12:30 to see the video of the issue. Link

War Hammer Update:

• "The Warhammer 40,000 event is now on the second week of Phase one and heading quickly towards completion to kick off Phase two. Keep up the good fight against the Orks as we have another enemy on the horizon, Chaos!
• We have been monitoring the progression of Phase one and feedback from players on the Challenges. We appreciate your comments on the event so far and have made the following changes to the Phase two challenges to address the feedback we have received.
• For the Emperor! Challenge
  • We have removed the progressive difficulty system so that the requirements do not increase with each completion.
  • The requirement will remain at 1,000 XP for each completion.
• Adeptus Mechanicus
  • We have removed the progressive difficult system so that the requirements do not increase with each completion.
  • We have also lowered the XP requirement for each completion to 750 XP.
• We have also been monitoring your response to the vehicles themselves. One vehicle in particular has stood out from the rest, with the early adopters expressing that the Nemesis is not living up to expectations. While we normally need at least 30 days of data to have a more accurate picture of a tanks performance, the initial data in this case was a bit concerning and matches the feedback players are expressing.
• Due to the limited availability of these tanks, we felt that we needed to take action now to improve its performance instead of waiting until after the event.
• Nemesis:
  • Aim Time: 3.1 -> 2.8
  • Standard Shot:
    • Penetration: 280 -> 310
    • Shell speed: 950 -> 1200
    • Reload: 19.8 -> 17.3
  • Charged Shot:
    • Penetration: 280 -> 310
    • Shell speed: 1020 -> 1200
    • Reload: 24.7 -> 21.6
  • Rapid Shot:
    • Penetration: 280 -> 310
    • Shell speed: 890 -> 1200
    • Reload: 9.9 -> 8.7"
  • Average DPM 2122 -> 2423

Upcoming events / News:

• June 27th Italian TD line
• Late May: “Reforge”

QNA summary**:**

• How did the engagement with the golden ticket event compare to others? - We are still gathering data and reviewing it. Hope you guys did enjoy it.
• Secondary weapon on Grant and Char B1? - Not currently on our plans. Usage of secondary weapons in WW2 hasn't been as high.
• WW2 Centernial for sale, before another 100 years? - We debated on if we wanted to revive the event or not. Nothing to share right now.
• Is there a way to get previous season tanks? - Anything not available in the TT goes on sale for bundles or special sale event throughout the year.
• PC skins? - We can not important skins from PC, thus we have to make our own. We prioritize skins that match the upcoming seasons or events. At some point in the future we may look at making those.
• German CW TD and lights? - Later this year. We are always discussing our tank schedule, as we just shifted the Italian TD’s.
• Kharkov map from PC Frontlines? - We tested large scale battles, and it didn't work on the consoles. The Maps we can take a look at. Stay tuned to later streams as we will have more map and game mode updates.
• New Eastern alliance tank? - we do have an upcoming premium, but no dates.
• BZ-176? - Unlikely to be this year.
• More camos that are subtle for CW? - Yes, maybe some newer camos next season.
• Any plans for WOT Plus for console? - No plans.
• When will the thumper be in WW2? - it will never come to WW2 as its armor and gun is too strong.
• YOH tanks? - no updates and no plans currently. Maybe next year.
• Sharpshooter contract? - a few months away.
• Fog use on maps? - its a hard thing to balance with usability. With the old bad weather map variations players had issues even with stuff outlined so it was shelved with the special weather versions.
• Premium T30? - Well there is the T34.
• Did the voice actors did the voices inside tanks? - Unlikely, ill ask the audio guy.
• Challenger 2 TES premium? - no, that is a modern vehicle.
• New tank next week? - This month we are focusing on the warhammer tanks. We did plan on having the italian TD’s but as mentioned before.
• Community Map update? - we have to schedule a community playtest event. Nothing to share with development. Next season we have plans on how we present the map.
• Reforge? - we do have a large number of tanks being reforged later this month.
• Halo (the xbox game) tanks? - Part of a long list of licensed tank requested. Interesting idea. Not something we can talk about in advance.
• Tier X tank sale? - Not this month, but soon.
• ATGM arming distance? - We are still in debate. We are working on other features and higher priority items at this moment.
• Turn small consumables into large consumables? - no plans right now, but we are thinking about consumables feature changes or improvements.
• Next contract for a premium? - Hint: Jah . German for something.
• Some different booster for after battle? - This comes up once in awhile, where players want to save boosters for really good games. Unfortunately, we would have to adjust the cost of the boosters. The current price is based around you losing and winning battles.
• Skin design competition? - Legal reasons. IP rights and stuff. We had a lot of issues in the past when we tried in the past.
• Arty 2.0 update? - No. right now we feel comfortable where it is right now. We want to see how it works for awhile. If warranted the next step would be a Arty 3.0.

Me and my friend just picked up wot on pc after playing a lot of console and are currently going thru our t4 tanks. While playing there were 2 games where I got 5,000 and 6,000xp from "challenges and event rewards" but my friend did not receive these. Wondering what they may have been and how he could try and get them?

I've heard this Switch port is good in comparison to Kingmaker. My PC can't run WOTR but I loved Kingmaker and want to play it any way I can. Has WOTR on Switch been consistently updated (I know the season pass is available, but what about the other DLCs and second season pass)? Are the free DLCs on console? And is it in a good state? I know people say not to go for Owlcat ports, but I really, REALLY want to play this game!!
EDIT:
For those wondering, I ended up getting the Xbox version (My internet can't handle the Switch version). I think that the movement and camera work much better than the PC version, although you're obviously going to run into problems navigating the menus. With over 24 hours logged, I still mix up the controls from time to time. As someone who mostly plays console games, I'd say (and this may be controversial) that the console port of WotR is my favorite port of a CRPG. Ever. I'll go ahead and answer the questions I asked in my post:
1) Yes. As of May 2023, the Switch and Xbox ports are both still getting consistently patched and updated alongside the PC version (I dont have a Playstation, but im sire the same applies for that, too). The date I just mentioned is important because this is after the release of the first DLC of the second season pass, which leads me to my next answer...
2) All DLC is on console. This includes DLCs from the second season pass, HOWEVER, unlike the PC version you CANNOT buy the second season pass bundle as of right now. You CAN buy the first bundle though, which means that you will likely be able to buy the second season pass bundle after all of the DLC for the pass is released. So it's really up to you if you want to buy them as they come out or wait until the bundle comes out.
3) Yes. This question was asking about the free DLC add-ons that are on the PC version but are seemingly not on console (stuff like addition to the character creation and stuff). These add-ons cannot be "purchased" separately because they were patched into the game upon release. So don't worry about not being able to find them when looking at the console ports' DLC list. They're there, already in the game for you.
4) So far I haven't encountered any glitches or game breaking bugs. No crashes or stuttering or anything. The game runs great on Xbox, though do be mindful that the other console ports may be a different story, especially the Switch version given that it's a cloud game (so it entirely depends on your internet connection). My only complaint is that load times are a bit on the longer side, ranging from 30 seconds to 2 minutes. As someone with OCD who constantly reloads his saves, this can be frustrating, and I doubt it will be patched, but don't let that discourage you from trying the game.
Overall, I've really enjoyed my time with the game so far. If you have a lackluster PC and have a console on hand, I'd say go for it. Keep in mind, however, that the Switch version CANNOT BE REFUNDED, as Nintendo does not allow refunds (the other ports CAN be refunded). If you like RPGs or want to get into CRPGs, WotR is a great game to shoot for. If you like DnD, play this game. If you like games with decent companions, play this game. And if you like this game, play Mass Effect. Controls make traversal a breeze for console players, and I think that Owlcat put more effort into this port than most CRPG games do, probably due to the disastrous Kingmaker port (don't buy that, Owlcat doesn't own the rights to the console ports or something so the games will never be fixed, patched, or updated).

QNA summary:

• Is it possible to add multiple version of a map to custom games with different spawns / Caps? - yes it's possible, but we do not have plans. We do have stuff planned that will meet some of those needs.
• Switch Ammos on the Forad? - We can consider it.
• Can you make the Free XP tanks have a different tag to make them easier to see? - yea we can, its another question if we will. Its reasonable request. If that's a useful way to identity what people are interested in. Good suggestion.
• ATGM min Arm distance? - It is something we are looking at.
• Up tier CW FV4005 or nerf? - Its the question of tank balance, we do take it seriously. We look at several factors and a tank may feel strong at sometime and not others.
• MBT-70’s 20mm? - I'm not aware of any plans, but we can talk about the work involved.
• Any plans to change any achievements? - Some of the retired achievements may be out of our hands with the console makers.
• WW2 silver earnings at higher tiers? - The economy is the way it is due to what has worked. I wouldn't say we are immediately planning to change it. Part of the skill of the game is to play at a level to earn. I don't want the game where the grind alone separates from performance alone.
• OBJ 907 on sale again? - no date set. Only available during special sales.
• BMP-3’s MOE moved to the larger gun? - its tied to the primary gun.
• On equipment from can we change from % to flat bonus? Such as speed equipment for slow tanks? - They are designed to work on tank in a complimentary way. They are intended to provide more benefit to tanks that are faster.
• Any update on double barrel tanks? - no update right now. When we do have a date we will give you it.
• In Co-op games can you make the damage against bots the same as multiplayer? - Its there to offer more challenge to the players. The bots are already at a disadvantage.
• Chieftain Hybrid 120? - Tanks not available on the Prem TT are for special sales.
• Clan specific tab in the garage? - its something we considered. We have plan for clans.
• Premiums bonus for lines come back? - we've been running other different ops that affect more tanks than just one line.
• Can tank names be displayed on the mini map? - its a memory limitation issue on the minimap.
• 4 player platoons? - Would cause too much issue with the MM and team balance.
• Karelia removed from CW? - we can talk to the map team to see if the engagement time is too much of an issue.
• VK 28.01 Durp gun? - no plans currently.
  • Sad - Zorin
• Deboo’s favorite tank to look at and to play? - Today, I love the Leman Russ due to how much work we put into it. Play?... this is going to get me in trouble but the AVRE, actually i'd say its the Wiesel.
• Clan based operations? Play as a platoon to earn small reward to other members. - I like the idea. No current clan plans that are like that, more smaller ideas.
• Commanders with prosthetics. Show support for wounded warriors. - It is something we would like to do. We just need to do research to make sure its good.
• Lowe Damage? Some medium have larger numbers. - Damage is correct for a 10.5cm gun.
• Team HP counter? - Due to our victory conditions, it's not based on HP, and it would cause confusion.
• Igniss buff? - early numbers - 55.5% win rate. Right now thats pretty competitive. Still too early to tell.
• Go back to consumables only used when used? - Consumables have passive benefits that you use.
• Any new Tier X’s for the US TT? - no current plans.
