Q&A Experiment

Update: Comments are closed. Let me sort that out and find the answers now. The answers will appear in a new blog post.

This mostly concerns EU server, since NA doesn't have it that bad, you can ask Chieftain&Co.

Alright, this is something I have refused to do until now, but I might as well try it, let's see how it works. Basically, we all know the EU server Q&A sucks (I've written about in most of the time), so as an experiment:

Write your questions into comments in this forum. I will try to find an answer for you, or - if I remember how the developers answered recently - I will answer myself (I will write my opinion in italic, so it's clear what is an official developer answer and what is just my speculation).

I also have the possibility to relay SOME of the questions to the developers (I will translate them in Russian and ask a friend of mine to post them in the Russian Q&A thread), but judging from the official EU Q&A thread, I don't expect many of those, as people essentially ask the same stuff over and over and over.

A few "rules" (more like guidelines, but please respect them, since it's my time it takes to find the answers)


- Use the comments for asking the questions, please do NOT get into discussions under this post (respect the fact I'd have to sort it out), even if the question you see is really silly
- Don't ask for buffs or nerfs (developers never bother with those, the official answer is "we will buff and nerf as needed")
- Don't post offtopic stuff in the comments
- Don't post suggestions in the comments, I will NOT relay them - that's not what this post is for, use you official forum suggestion section (NA/EU has one, not sure about SEA)

  1. 1. Why are replacement premium tanks for the Chinese Type 59 and WZ-111 being created as opposed to placing them back in (or implemented on other servers)?

  3. Will they look at using more small destruction targets, secondary capping areas or domination type victory mechanics so as to reduce the benefits of camping, rather than simply relying on artillery ?

  4. The staff at the EU-forum should be ashamed that we've come to this...

    Anyway, I'll ask the same questions I asked in the last Q&A thread there, that only got to the question part, not the answer.

    1. What you think of the chances that the map-making tools be released to the public, and then the devs review and balance what they get out of that?

    2. Aside from independent suspension, what else can we expect with client-side physics?

    There was a third question I asked as well, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was now, and the original thread was deleted. Will get back when I remember it.

    Thanks for taking your time.

  15. Hi, can you please ask for me why Type 62 has commander/radio man and WZ131 (I think it is same tank as 62) and 132 loader/radio man? And if there is a posibility they will make crew roles on all 3 tanks same.

    It is not good when you have to choose if you want learn radio operator skills for wz 132 or type 62 and not be able to use them on other vehicle.

  16. 1.On a previous Q&A serB said that "BIA allows perks to be activated at 95%". But ingame I do not see the greyed out perk button light up after getting to 95% on a perk as second skill. Is the perk active now just not showing or am I missing something?

    2. Is there plans to make alteration to tanks that perform underwhelming to its peers instead of a straight buff or nerf? Such as giving different guns or different engines?

    3.If possible can you please tell us if the german second TD line will have comparable guns to the current TD line or it will have more powerful guns in exchange for virtually no armor? Will they follow the normal german trend of lowish gun depression or will they have gun depression like the dicker max?

    4.If the prem consumables that are now available for credits not used much or deemed too expensive will their costs be decreased? Like 10-15k instead of 20k.

    5.Does HE shells have more chance of causing ammo rack detonations? And does HEAT have the same chance of causing the same as AP/APCR?

  20. 1) Will there be anything (WarThunder like) like unlocking painting/ spec camos for how u play with tank? I mean for example after 500 win with 1 tank u will unlock camo with leafs, zimerit etc for this tank visible for every1 ( http://drongo-lab.ru/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/0_72d47_4f7ca233_XL.jpg )

    2) Is there a possibility of adding a new module: "transmission" and do not count transmission as module: "engine"?

    3) Will germans have any more modern tank than Leopard 1? (Im not asking for a modern tank with rockets etc just asking for later tanks with more modern radio, engine etc than Leopard 1 have for example)

    4) Reticles: will there be in future stand non moving reticle? (reticle which will not catch on objects like a magnet when u aim on tank which is behind an object the reticle jump on this object [self-moving] instead of holding the direct point on which u aiming)?

    5) Will there be anything like better zooming in sniper mode for sniper tanks or for tank about we know they have better optics than others?

  28. Woho! Finally a chance to get a reply to my question!
    Would it be possible to make shells have mass and thus kinetical energy?
    No more zero damage hits. And you get to physically push a tank backwards ^^
    hit the side of T-50-2 and only tracked him? No worries, the impact will kill it.
