The current maximum Warbarge level is 8, ever since Warlords 1.2:
* Maximum Warbarge level is now 8.
As such, technically any subsystem could be upgraded till level 8.

Yes, they are working as intended, I verified on a test character. All subsystems upgraded to level 8, the produced and stored maximum climbing up as they should. Claimed 18 experimental weapons from the level 8 Experimental Laboratory for example.

CTRL+F Warbarge. It's that one line that I posted as link. It's under GAMEPLAY, like so:
GAMEPLAY * Daily Missions now grant a specified amount of Command Points. These Command Points are automatically contributed to player corporations and can be spent on Planetary Conquest activities such as: - Selling Clones. - Moving Clones. - Using Clone Packs to attack Districts. - Changing Reinforcement Timers. - Changing District Surface Infrastructures.
* Maximum Warbarge level is now 8.

You cannot spend componentssubsystems that are not in game. What you technically spend your Warbarge Components on is leveling the Warbarge itself. Level 6-7-8 Warbarge can be purchased and have no new Subsystems. But upgrading your Warbarge above level 5 also allows you to upgrade existing subsystems above level 5 - so the components are not just wasted. If you're not happy with only upgrading the Warbarge itself and not getting a new subsystem, you can send us a ticket, we can reset your Warbarge and refund the components. New subsystems may be added in the future though.

What bonus damage on level 8? 2. What is the maximum bonus damage is now available?
The Augmented Ammunition Facility is providing a 9% damage bonus on level 8.
I cannot comment on whether this is working as intended at the moment.

To clarify - the 9% damage bonus is the intended bonus from the level 8 subsystem. What I cannot currently comment on is if it is actually giving the bonus as intended at the moment - there's that thing where it may be capped at 5% at the moment.
And no, not pay to win. This subsystem - like any other - can be upgraded to max level without spending any real money on the game. Also, +damage =/= win. It can be a big advantage, sure.

The what now? Announced? Where did you hear or see that?
I'm not debating the time/warbarge component/money thing. I know exactly how many components a character needs to get there, and how freaking long that could take. I'm not saying it would be easy or even sane to do it, all I'm saying is that it is possible.
That announcement does sound interesting though, please link that here if possible

Didn't say any of them were, and I also mentioned that I tried and verified the level 8s on all Subsystems on a test character.

That's been discussed earlier in this thread:
GM Archduke wrote:To clarify - the 9% damage bonus is the intended bonus from the level 8 subsystem. What I cannot currently comment on is if it is actually giving the bonus as intended at the moment - there's that thing where it may be capped at 5% at the moment.
As in, I upgraded the Subsystem to level 8 on the test character, and I can see on the Warbarge UI that it says 9% damage bonus. I cannot comment on whether this is accurately coded and currently functioning as intended, or if it's instead only giving a 5% damage bonus in game.
I'll try to remember to clarify this with Shanghai the next time I'm on shift, but I'm usually quite busy, and tend to forget about the Forums at work.

Could you post the number of components required (and the cooldown after) to upgrade WB systems past level 5?
What I loosely remember so far, because I made the mistake of not writing this **** down while I was upgrading:
Level 1: 300ish (a few hours) Level 2: 2500ish (under a day) Level 3: 10k ish (a few days) Level 4: 25k ish (a few weeks?) Level 5: 50k ish (unknown) Level 6: ??? Level 7: ??? Level 8: ???
Warbarge itself: per-level costs and cooldowns much lower than subsystems, to level 6 is a little under 10k components
I'm quite positive that all this is not a 'secret', but I can't remember seeing any raw data on this that I could just copy-paste. I'll see what I can do about this if I don't forget.

Unless, that just didn't happen. In that case, you should be running for public office. Because your spinning and lying are on par with that of a politician.
Umm...lol. I'll respond to this when I get back in the office tomorrow. Archduke needs some sleeps.

You're not going to convince me. I've dealt with community managers my whole gaming life. I know what you guys are paid to do. I've played this game longer, and more than you. I've been gaming longer, and more than you.
I know I won't convince you, I've talked to you before, and seen you ignore all possibilities in order to arrive at a preconceived conclusion that supports your emotional state at the time. I'm not delusional. But I'll still explain - a bit later - because you're just plain wrong.
2 more things: - what do you base the theory on that you've been a gamer longer than me? - please watch the personal attacks and language, you're getting into bannable territory

First of all, please listen to CCP Rouge carefully in the Fanfest 2014 - DUST 514 Keynote - he never said anything about not having further updates for DUST 514.
In this additional FanFest Announcement Rouge also specifically stated that Legion was not greenlit at the time, and that we will continue having updates for DUST 514.
Please also see these Forum posts answering DUST 514 and Project Legion concerns: If Project Legion becomes something more than a prototype, we will not leave our DUST 514 players behind. I want to address the concerns about character migration from DUST 514 to Project Legion if it goes ahead.
And there's this /incomplete/ list of stuff that we actually did since that announcement:
Warlords 1.0 Overview & Patch Notes Warlords 1.1 Overview & Patch Notes Warlords 1.2 Overview & Patch Notes Introducing Warlords 1.2 Planetary Conquest Revamp Introducing Warlords 1.2 Progression System [Feedback] Hotfix FoxFour DUST 514 Development Roadmap
These are facts, man. Nothing you said just there is correct.

I hope you figure out what that cause is, because although it may not look like it I'm sure you'd love to be a Community Manager of a successful and/or popular game.
I really can't remember my total hours on this game. Perhaps you have more. I'm not going to measure straws. You claim to help players, but yet have refused to listen to feedback that was critical to the game, by players, reviews, and publications.
I've seen this exact same strategy from you in a different thread - when proven wrong with stone-cold facts, just slightly modify the subject.
Yes, many players stopped playing. Doesn't change the fact that we never announced an end to DUST 514, never said we would stop updates, and the fact that we're actually continuously releasing updates. Facts. So, since you cannot argue with them, you change your argument. Well, sure, go ahead, but you were still plain wrong.

Original:

I did answer that question, you chose not to understand the answer.
The simple answer is - Warbarge /and separate Subsystems/ levels 6-7-8 are not unobtainable, as we're continuously working on DUST 514 and releasing updates. Nobody says the game is coming to an end except you. Twist this any way you want, I don't have any more time to waste on discussing this moot point.

That is plain wrong again. Why can't you understand when you're wrong? It's funny actually. I've seen players actually having level 8 Warbarges. Closing.
