- second American medium branch, turreted British tank destroyers: "no comment"
- Leopard 1 won't have its gun stabilizer included directly into its stats, but you will be able to mount it as an equipment
- second US artillery branch based on M1XX designs (M107-M110) - "if necessery"
- regarding Wargaming acquiring "original plans" from archives and the possibilities of other companies getting them - "Understand, noone will give us the originals, we are making copies. Thus, any company or person can make such copies."
- SerB states that one sheet of copy costs from tens to hundreds of Rubles (SS: one Euro = cca 40 Rubl), but the expensive part is actually looking for the documents, that requires a large amount of trained people
- teamkill automatic ban system does not work in training rooms
- both viewrange-enhancing skills work the same, there's no difference
- SerB states that when selecting the US T10 heavy, the M48A5 (with M68) was skipped intentionally - instead, the Patton 3 with 90mm stock gun was selected so that there was room for unlocking a new gun.
- regarding bots in WoT: "to make them ground-based is quite difficult"
- there will be new hangars implemented
- devs won't touch players (SS: regarding yet another whine about skill MM)
- there is an interface bug with the chat windows - they don't close when you press the "x" in upper right corner, will be fixed
- the fact that on AMX M4 the gun has full depression only when turned to the front of the tank is not a bug, it's intended
- old aiming circle (0.3.3) will not return
- there is a bug that when you drive on certain hard object (for example the concrete pavement in Ensk), the terrain passability counts as if you were driving on the ground beneath the object, will be fixed
- it's possible each nation will get its own hangar
- Q: "Storm, how dow you feel about the anti-tank butthurt site http://tankam.net/?" A: "http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/kingofgame/47397647/15804/15804_900.gif"
- Q: "Will it be possible to put wallpapers, move furniture etc. in the hangars?" A: "That's Sims"
- the only platoon balancing is that both teams have to have the same amount of platoons +/-1. Both teams are balanced based on the tank weight
- VK2001DB and VK3002DB will be in 0.8.5
- premium tanks will not be sellable for gold
- regarding the tutorial: "It's done for a person that sees the game for the first time, not for an experienced player. For newbies it works perfectly." (SS: regarding the issue where you have to shoot the Tiger 2 in the front even when you know it won't do shit, it's counterintuitive for older players)
- tutorial was tested on people who never played WoT before

So the early DB line will be added. Time to write another article.
ReplyDelete- both viewrange-enhancing skills work the same, there's no difference
ReplyDeleteEhhhhh... not true? Recon gives a smaller bonus than the S. Awarness, but it also compensates for the broken visor, so they do NOT work in the same way... SerB messing stuff up again or what?
Thats alot for today. I think the .gif is quiet fun and new hangars sounds good to me. :D But to me it feels like the new update got more bugs then the last one. :|
ReplyDeleteTo me it looks like with every patch they fuck up more things and several new bugs shows up than they fix old ones in the same patch....incompetence at it's best...
DeleteThat happens when you go for quantity. WG is on turbo mode, with 1,5 branches per month. As Joseph Stalin said(no offence): "quantity has its own quality!"
Deletethere will be new hangars implemented
ReplyDeletelovely!
Hajvanho
Frank Davis can you ask SerB if there is going to be skills and perks for arty crew members? The current one have from minimal to no use
ReplyDeleteThat would be interesting.
DeleteIn the tutorial, it wouldn't hurt explaining the penetration indicator, since it's right there in front of your face in all games.
ReplyDeleteIt's explained in the penetration tutorial video, but it should be at least hinted to or linked.
Deletewasn't second branch of US MT already confirmed? and actually - who cares about another crappy german med on tier 6?
ReplyDeleteAny idea what the VK 3002 DB V1 will look like? They wouldn't leave the gun selection the same right?
ReplyDeleteThe top gun is the 75mm L/70, it looks and behaves like stock VK3002DB (same turret), it just has a different suspension.
DeleteWill we get any new tier 8 premium tank? I have 15k gold and I'm not sure that i want löwe or T34.
ReplyDeleteNot sure. The closest hightier premium is the Soviet T-44A I think (low pen, but decent armor).
DeleteAfter reading about t44a in the wot forum, this tank won't be a good moneymaker. Sadly.
DeleteI think the American tree is quite crowded as it is. The devs should pay some attention to the French tree instead.
ReplyDeleteWhat about the "DW (Durchbruchwagen)" (Tier 5 Heavy). Any infos?

So the stock stabiliser has to be bought as an extra. It's like buying a car and having to pay for the passengers seat. I fear it will have horrible accuracy on the move then.
ReplyDelete"Leopard 1 won't have its gun stabilizer included directly into its stats, but you will be able to mount it as an equipment"
ReplyDeleteA true gun stabilizer??? or just another kind of VS??
