WoT New Map Live Oaks

So far I have been playing for over an hour since patch 7.2 has come out and I have only seen Live oaks once and haven't seen Province at all. As soon as I do I will post some screen shots of it. Until then here are a few shots of Live Oaks for those who haven't gotten on to it yet.









Also added a shot of one of the new log on screens, so far Ive seen 2.

SWTOR's Missing Eyes



Of all the glitches and bugs you can find in SWTOR, I find the missing eyes one to be the most annoying. I understand that this is minor in the grand scheme of playing the game, but for some reason it is really getting on my nerves. Characters interacting in a pivotal story line suddenly lose their eyes and are replaced by either a non colored version or an empty eye socket. This happens quite frequently in the game and can become distracting if you are engrossed in the story line. When looking at the two screen shots I have added you can really get an understanding of how much this effects the story portion of the game. Without the eyes the character loses a lot of his life like appeal.

 

Although I know the devs have much more pressing business to attend to, I would still like to see this problem fixed. In a game that uses story as a key component in its playing, the eye issue can be a major immersion breaker. I can relate this to playing a first person shooter game in which my Avatar keeps losing his gun while firing. Yes I know they are just eyes, but damn it I want my eyes back.

World of Tanks Latest Video

Wargamming has released another video highlighting some of the upcoming changes in WoT. Featured in this video is the new American Tank Destroyers and tech tree. Also they discuss some of the advantages and disadvantages associated with TD's having turrets. Most revealing is the new tech tree for the American line, as the T30 is being turned into a tier 9 TD and losing much of its speed and armor. Also the T32 and T34 are being removed from the game all together. I also like the idea of the Hellcats top speed of 72kph, a TD with that much speed could prove deadly and could change many strategies in the game. 

Also mentioned is the upcoming changes in the games physics as tanks are now able to go over rocks and fall of cliffs or even become submerged in water. These changes will greatly change the game play and will alter every known strategy out there. You can check out the video below.


P.S. My favorite Russian spokes person is doing quite well in her English, gratz to her.

SWTOR Patch 1.2 Video

So apparently while I was out of town for the last couple days, a new patch 1.2 video was released in conjunction with the Guild Summit BioWare held.
There are some very nice additions in this patch, namely the legacy system upgrades, UI customization and promises of improved guild control. All things I am looking forward to. Check out the video below in case you haven't see it yet.
