The B1 is kind of annoying since it's gun isn't much better than the D2's.

You can buy gold for a friend now, or Buy a tank for him, Or buy a tank + gold for him (These 3 come with the tanks you could only get during the pre-order)
So, I wonder how they decided to price that, because by any calculation I've ever done, that is a discounted Lowe right there, which means it's an awesome way to buy each other Lowes, and a good way to get gifted the gold equivalent if you already had it ... Weeeeeird ...

And to boot, if the person already has the tank they will convert the gift into the gold price instead.
Someone is getting a Steel Wall, but who?
Such a heavy burden now to be the one
Born to bare and read to all the details of our ending
To write it down for all the world to see
But I forgot my pen...
noticed that, I did buy two of them ;p
Apparently they made a big stink on the EU and US forums. I really don't care who has the mutant 6. That tank is fucking terrible at tier 8

Ya, the forums dredged up videos from a year ago of the CEO saying the pre-order tanks would never again be available and I guess that made them relent.

My current lineup of regular tanks is:
KV-3 (IS researched but I'm a poordilocks.)
VK3601
T-34-85
Hummel
T-50
Stug
I've got another half dozen less notable vehicles, mostly tier 4s.
EDIT - Another IS-7 beatdown with it: http://www.mediafire.com/?6vzboomztf1ruu2
people are like that (annoying)
If they forced the change and then say a month down the round removed them, you'd probably have people from the first group who are complaining about it now, complaning it was removed.
Has anybody verified that you will be able to get the M6A2E1 through the gift shop in the future? I hate that tin can with a passion, but I have a hard time letting go of it, since you can't buy them through the store. I went to the gift web-page, but it doesn't show any of the pre-order premiums, and several of you mentioned that you could gift them.Edit Never mind. Reading is fundamental.

Re: the preorder tank sales, I agree that it's a very stupid thing to complain about. It's not like they're some badge of honor - all it took to get them was having $50 (or whatever) in your bank account at the right time. I suppose if someone bought a pre-order tank specifically because they knew they wouldn't be available later and thought it'd make them part of some exclusive club... well, that's still a dumb attitude but I can see being mildly irked in that case.
The only tanks I'd be annoyed about them putting on sale are those that are actual rewards for having achieved something. Mainly that means the CBT M4A2E4 reward, which required 1000 games played, and I guess there was one for alpha participants and maybe a Russian beta tank or something. Even then, it's just a game! There are more important things in life to get mad about.
The replay for this is terrible, almost the entire team goes hill.

I'm impressed by how you were able to peg the is-7 fuel tank in that battle and one of the previous ones, I feel like every time I go close to opponents I whiff a bunch of shots into spots that do no damage.

Seriously, this replay is the pure joy of the 13 90.
I also approve that when Simp and Mac go arty Himmildorf comes up.
"I think I can comment on this because I used to live above the Baby Doll Lounge, a topless bar that was once frequented by bikers in lower Manhattan."
I guess I gotta start playing again.
Well, some things are valuable because they're scarce. Makes sense to me. If something you have is scarce and it becomes common, then it's no longer valuable, and if you bought it under the assumption that it would always be scarce, you probably have a right to be annoyed. Collectors are a whole class of people that play games in a different way, and take pleasure in having rare things. I don't see any reason to deprive those people of that pleasure.
Of course, I haven't got any of them because I'm not much of a collector really, although I am a bit peeved that I never got the M4A2E4 even though I played the crap out of the beta, just because I wasn't playing at the end of the beta. I just hope they offer something similar later because the tank+gold deals seemed pretty sweet.
"I think I can comment on this because I used to live above the Baby Doll Lounge, a topless bar that was once frequented by bikers in lower Manhattan."
Then again, I look at the number of people with Lowes and Type 59s, and I suppose I shouldn't underestimate the number of people who are willing to spend far too much money on this game.
Of course. There are plenty of people who value these things just because they're rare. No usage in the game, nothing, zilch, just because not a lot of other people have it, and no one can get it. Doesn't hurt me that they have it, so if they enjoy having something, why take that away, considering, of course, that WG promised those people their tank would be forever unique.
The French heavies take some getting used to for everyone else as well: My jaw about dropped when yesterday I was headed up the hill on Malinovka in my AMX 12 light and looked over to see the French t8 HEAVY keeping right up with me!
