So most of the stuff this patch has looks good, except for one thing. I also have trouble understanding why this one thing is marked green for being good. Limiting battles to a 2 tier spread? That will pretty much guarantee even MORE people will play like idiots and ruin what could be wins. That means there is absolutely nothing left to force people to play smart. More importantly, I have ALWAYS enjoyed beating the piss out of higher tier tanks with my lower tier tanks, even more than I enjoy the occasional one shot kill with my higher tiers.

Since WG wouldn't patch on a weekend, the likely release data of 7.5 is the week of August 6th.
Why? Because the classic league tournament finals are on August 4th. If WG releases the patch before the finals, and one team brings tier 10 mediums to the final and the other uses all pre-7.5 tanks for example, then it would invalidate the entire tourney. I would hope WG doesn't waste months of player effort and time by releasing early.

I think because the US tier six tanks will see tighter tiering, the earnings if not nerfed would be premium level.
You get paid for damage and easyeight and Jumbo are not being nerfed.
So your still getting in 22-40 shots a match if your not overmatched or a half way decent driver.
Even at about 110 damage a penetration,
A win with 900-1000 total damage in tighter tiers becomes a win with more kills and more important more penetration for damage, so what your seeing is just reality sinking in and nightmare top tier nines and tens no longer on the menu.
So they take and place you in matches where you should rack up damage with that rate of fire.
If they didn't reduce earnings, 40-50 k wins would be common right?
Guys that tier five and some eights premium earning level.
Its entirely possible they over nerfed them ..won't be the first time.
But you will be seeing many more matches where your in the top six or seven tanks if not the top tank.
Think about that for a minute.
It didn't make sense when they fed tier six to nines and tens for snacks to mess with earnings.
But now you should see consistent 15k- 20 k wins and 8-9 k loss ..
So the matches where you spawned and got one shotted after bouncing five shots off a speedy tier nine medium are over.
It may be too much or it may actually be OK ..
Only playing the game will prove it out.

Well looks like no 7.5 this week!
(Fine by me, i've been traveling this past month and haven't had a chance to play 7.4 that much)

Time to sell my Shermans it looks like a MINOR rebalancing by decerasing how much it can earn by 5% AND increasing the repair cost 35%.
Won't see any more of them in battles then. I don't think it made THAT much. Certainly not compared to the KV-2 which is a money machine and ISN'T getting hammered.
*sad*

I would like to know why my gun who was removed from T-28 85mm F30 is not stored so I can mount it to the Kv-1 but instead I have to spend credits and buy it now when I had it on T-28 before patch. Why I have to pay for something that I already had on the other tank that's called RIPOFF WG. I want some answers

More German vehicles will come, don't worry
Sir, this is not an adequate excuse to nerf what we have now. Yes I'm looking forward to the DB line, but I have no reason to expect it until year end.
What is with the 3002DB on the income/repair chart with the line blank? Did it receive some much needed help or not? On top of that can we please get rid of the mandatory panther II schmaeturm on german mediums from tiers 5 to 8?
