To be honest in this picture the logo doesn't look as bad as in the blank white background.. :)

But Instinct, please, screenshots next week :) Do we have a deal? 8)

EDIT: Ok there is nuff pictures in the webkit! ^^

This webkit did include some very nice screenshots indeed, (even if one of them showed us the Centurion...) but some of the vehicle screens are wrong. The Pz.Kpfw. IV Ausf. E for example, isnt an Ausf. E, it is still a Pz.Kpfw. IV Ausf. F1 --- there is huge difference between these two variants, something which should be corrected (either the name or the model itself) in my opinion. Even if you do add prototypes and vehicles that was designed and produced too late to see action during WWII, you should at least name the vehicles by their correct names and variants. Human mistake or bad research? :rtfm: :realbig:

Hammer and sickle is still "over the top" :rtfm: Really, why are symbols like that needed at all? :confused:

They are planning to add a swastika to the W, and an American star to the R. There was also gonna be something british but they had only 3 letters.

Well ok, the logo looks pretty nice. It would be so much better without any symbols though.

And, the loaders visor is missing on the front turret armor plate (it looked exactly the same as the gunners visor). The antennae seems to be attached to the right fender (or it could just as well be the angle of the photo that plays tricks on my eyes) instead of being attached to the antennae base.

All Pz.Kpfw. IV variants from Ausf. A to very early G had two visors on the turret front and the antennae on the right side of the hull (the antennae wasnt removed from this position until the very late Ausf. G saw the light). Later variants (late G´s to J) had the antennae relocated to the rear left side of the hull, not the right side. :grin:

Cooling louvers are also from the F1 type.
The "Best Way" :twisted: is to simply rename the tank to Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf. F1.

Historically accurate people, you are offtopic-ing :lol:

Man i cant wait until they put swastika on that logo also, that symbol u have right now reminds people of things that USSR did to them, killing civilians... which kind of riminds me of NAZISM!!!!!

bastards.... :pang:

[HrcAk47]

I once again appeal to 505 Games, reconsider the logo! Things like this will only hinder the popularity of the game! :wilting:

All sides in the war killed civilians, that's the war in that scale, but I guess you have as polish some sort of different aspect. And I think you know why they cannot put swastika to it... :confused:

Also, the comitern was one of the winning sides so might that allow the use of the sickle and hammer? Moreover, it's historically remarkable icon for the communism (Do not think I'm one of them). And the third reason what could grant the use would be that the game has two russian campaings.

But something keeps haunting me. Sickle & hammer kinda fits the theme of the game, the wwII and bla bla but on the other hand it don't because MoW introduces the all sides of the war, even Japan and the Pacific theatre. That's why I don't like it. Otherwise the logo is kinda cool. :toast:

I don't think they're gonna change their minds because of some fans yelling and organizing riots in the front of their office... Hmmm... mayb your Jagdpanthering skills should be put in a good use. :realbig: :realbig: :realbig:

[filon102]

I dont think killing unarmed civilians on there territory in 1939-1940 they had fighting going on...even when ruskies where on the river wisla near warsaw they were aresting ppl and shooting them....there own goddamn allies for f*cks sake man, we dint do anything to them..... :wilting:

:huh: What was the point of this poll (http://www.digitalmindsoft.eu/forums/viewtopic.php?f=109&t=1103&st=0&sk=t&sd=a)? I thought another very cool looking logo was winning by a wide margin. :huh:

Just a lil offtopic:

This is a hungarian pz 4. Hungary got some... but the interesting thing is in the hungarian army this was a heavy tank 8) . It looks good on paper that we have some heavys :realbig: .

"ontopic":
People from the non-communist side will never understand how "good" :sick: was living in a "occupied" country! 1956? anybody remember where was the everybodys "liberator" (USA)? yeah we have no oil so there was no chnace to "liberate" us.

Praga´s Spring?

This is going way of topic, but then again its one of the..less interesting dev updates ever.

Every side committed barbaric actions, but winners get to tell the history, Churchill - when asked why was he going to wright a WW2 history book he reply something along- This way i get to tell my version!

This barbaric actions are always "judge" in face of their times and social environment - Nazis action where particularly shocking because they used a systematic/ organized aprouch to the killing in a social developed country. Russia in 1940 was still in revolution, 20 years after century's of feudal semi-feudal state where single human beings where regarded mostly as a resource...

This of course do not excuse anybody. For example Would anyone regard as shocking the allies carpet bombing runs in the last months of the war if they where perpetrated by Russian bombers against Germany or Chinese runs against Japan? Watt makes this actions shocking is mainly because they where issued by democratic nations where a free press and freedom of speech and access to courts existed.

Ok i´m bored, i need the Beta soon!

Anyhow that logo it is not a good idea, and same logo without Sickle & hammer will be fine. :|

The main purpose was to measure the reaction of the community and give a better suggestion to our publisher, however it doesn't force them to use the "suggested" logo.

Did a similar poll occur in the former states of USSR as well? Just curious... Too bad that they didnt choose the one most of us voted for, after all, that one was the best and made by someone unknown... :P

Nah, don't think, East gets different logo, V tily vraga 2 Lis Pustini (Desert Fox).

And i sincerely dont see the point of using the proclaimed worst logo. It can affect the sales, because majority of players i know pick games under the impression of boxshot... :(
