Developer Q&A, 1st September 2013

No SerB rule, even though he is not Serb. XD

 

Ha ha ha ha ha that is really good feature when you play WoT. XD

 

- Q: "What the hell, I can't see a tier 10 TD shooting at me from 56 meters..." A: "What a horror..."- Yes its very big horror, over 50%hp loss is very terrifying.

- if you get automatically unlocked the new arties implemented into the game, because you researched its predecessor, you will have them unlocked, but they apparently won't have their modules researched in any case, even if the original arty has the same gun as the newly unlocked one. This is intentional. - SPGs haters.

- basically, SerB confirmed GW Tiger P is a fake - he confirmed they basically used the development order for 210mm mortar Elefant and rough dimensions of the vehicle to deduce it was an artillery vehicle.- Why didnt they call it Elefant as it should be named in the first place?

- regarding the aforementioned client physics implementation, it's being worked on, it will work so that for example Schmalturm Panzer IV's mesh side armor (Schurzen) will fly off after being hit, it's possible that after its implementation, there will be additional armor implemented, such as sandbags - They should implement side spaced armor, sand bags look too cheap.

 

But tanks would look much more powerful and cooler. XD
+ HE shoots would have less influence.

 

HE shoots from M4, Hezer, T40, T82, Pz iV would be significantly reduced.

 

OMG OMG OMG, Hawx got purple name

Back to the subject

- premium accounts running only when players are playing won't be implemented

If this was implemented premium acc would cost A LOT MORE, that is the only option of this happening but it probably wont happen at all

 

- SerB confirms that the source for E50M was Spielberger's book, but also states that the project from the book did not meet success and had to be "further developed" by WG - They couldnt decipher perfection. XD

- SerB states that the "maps are being remade for arty to better hits tanks behind covers" is just a conspiracy theory- Ha another SPG hater.

 

- AFK tank can still light up enemies, if they get close to it- Why wouldnt they light red tanks? XD

 

- it is possible for both teams in random battle to have different number of platoons, if the MM mechanism considers the MM weight difference between those too small (for example 2x2 man platoons vs 1x3 man platoon)

My problem is that when i play let`s say IS-3 in one team there is platoon of 3 with 3xT7 tanks while in other team there is platoon of 2 or 3 with T9 tanks. And that is it no other platoons. I don't really care if it is 2x2 or 1x3 for me it is more the TIER BALANCED PLATOONS. And it shouldn't be very hard to implement as far as they want it. IF it already has the MM based on points then just add certain values to those who are in a platoon and when put in a list for waiting find similar platoon. IT wouldn't slow MM that much due to huge amount of platoons overall.
I would gladly wait 20s instead of 2s for a little bit of more balance in my games.
For noobs it doesn't matter so they wouldn't even know why MM became a bit longer than before anyway xD

 

You know when you wait too much you often go in +2 tier battle where you are only tank from that tier. XD

 

we got news on Superpershing issue, apparently, it's going bye bye from the store
yes but it will be back again leyter
but the fr.arty tier4 will not be back
