Update 8.4 to introduce more vehicles and graphically-enhanced maps; out for North America and Southeast Asia on March 7.

Wargaming.net has announced that it will launch a new update to World of Tanks this week.

Update 8.4 will bring in 10 new tank destroyers from Great Britain such as the FV215b prototype that comes with a 183mm high-damage gun. Players can also check out three new light German tanks: the Pz.I, the Pz.I Ausf., and the Pz.II Ausf.G.

The four battle arenas in the game--Ensk, Live Oaks, Steppes and Fisherman’s Bay--have also been updated with new graphics. The tutorial mode for the game has also been revamped.

The update will be out for North America and Southeast Asia on March 7. Korea will receive the update on March 20. For more information on World of Tanks, check out GameSpot’s previous coverage.

World of Tanks is beginning to suck. It's amazingly difficult to get a tier 9 tank without money paid in this game. I'm done with it.

@kripton97 Yeah I quit the game a few months ago when the brit line first came out. I paid cash (like a fool) for a tier 10 brit heavy - which they completely changed in a patch to something I didn't even like.... seems to be a common theme for wargaming. Funny how they wait to do it AFTER everyone paid money.

@fatee @kripton97  and how is that different from any other competitive game where u can buy champs, mechs or what not? Take lol for example - most champs that come out are pretty strong so everybody buys them...and then get toned down...a lot sometimes, a patch or two later. If you cant accept the way them game companies want to take your money you can always grind and buy them w in-game cash =/

@kripton97  it used to be fun from closed beta till before the 0.7.0 line of patches rolled in and when you think about the game its just a boring tiresome grind from one crappy stock tank to the other.
