Do to the numerous lag complaints, I have would like to get your opinion on the following:

If penetration zones aka "red armor" was removed and there was a lot less lag would you be a happy tanker?

 

Thanks for your opinions guys, and also hopefully WG you see what the people want fixed in the next patch!

Well, it would be a bad time for SU-152's users because since the 152mm cant really pen anything, people would not know where to hit and risk creds for shells

the splash dmg of it is great!

also people on PC don't have this help, and they manage to excel with it

I think it would be good fo tanks up to tier v because at tier 6 thats jere weakpoints start to matter and at tier 5 it introduces them do i think up to tier v would be good

[Blesd12]

I don't think it would have an affect

[Electronetic]

I guess splash damage does do some damage, but I wouldn't just want to do like 350 damage with HE on a tank every time, not knowing weak spot is so that if I do know where the weak spot is, I can do like 600 damage w/HE.

I want to keep it, but that's because I'm kind of a nub

And how can I have a post without my beloved Panzer II J?

I would like to see it off, it will make it in some cases easier and more intense in games (especially tier X) i HATE how people can see exactly where to shoot to do damage, on PC you need a lot more skill and precision to pull off penetrating hits (with a little help from the color coded aiming reticle). But i feel like taking the "red armor" off would make the game more challenging and enjoyable imho.

[BuickHellFire]

Any in game armor info should be removed, if they are to lazy to look up the info. let them shoot at no damage zone all they want.

[NCRranger24]

Keep it until tier 5, then disable it so people must learn weak spots.

well...

you guys can LEARN he weakspots like all the new guys on pc do

 

aim for cupolas, lower glacis, machine gun ports, view finders, turret rings...

(and of course sides and rear are weakest)

 

if they can do it, so can you!!!

I would like to see it taken off but I feel that it will never happen. This game is supposed to be short and fast hence the name Blitz and I feel like the games would last much longer if people didn't know where to pen off the top of their head. 

[Looney999]

Well, Blitz is more casual oriented than a unicum paradise like PC, I'm pretty sure 90% of players on Blitz have never seen the Wiki much less this forum.

This. This is why we have hitskins, why we don't have individual crews, why we only have encounter battles (and no standard), and likely why Clan Wars is going to be different from PC. Different audiences. Unlike a lot of you, most people don't spend hours at home grinding away, they play to kill a bus ride or something.

 

What you guys propose is to shoehorn WoT PC into a mobile game, and ruin the fine balance that's been struck between complex and simple.

[__Joebob1967__]

I really wouldnt need this hit skin. Just aim for common weak spots like the commander's cupola or the lower glacis plate.

[TheHollowSyndicate]

How exactly are you sure that the highlighted color's causing lag?

That's the point. It would make people think about when and where to shoot
