18.5.2013

- Storm confirms that the biggest map size is 1200x1200m, out of that number the 1000x1000 area is an "active gameplay area"
- current smaller maps (Himmelsdorf) won't be made bigger in the future
- the reason for the tank silhouette not displaying when looking thru a fire of a burning tank is one of the properties of game render
- Storm doesn't know whether the community will be officially informed about banned mods
- arty nerf? "no comment"
- Chinese, American or French gift edition WoT? "Not for now"
- SerB states that Wargaming intentionally doesn't make its maps to resemble real life places (with real life names)
- the implementation of clientside physics is going "well", in time a video will be made as a presentation
- the fate of Panzer IV Hydro and SU-85i is "excellent"
-  the new camo system will take partially concealed tanks into consideration, it won't come soon
- the high shell price for the Centurion I gun is "a conspiracy"
- even though SerB was tempted to introduce Object 167M hull with the 122mm D-83 for T-62A, it won't be implemented, it won't get the 2A27 gun and 780hp engine either
- according to SerB, Object 120 (SS: SU-152 "Taran") is too modern to implement
- no realistic simulator is planned to be developed based on WoT
- principially it's possible to make maps not even-sided (SS: f.x. 1000x500), but there is no need to do that
- according to SerB, gasoline increasing the turret rotation speed is realistic, because the increased engine RPM transfers to the turret rotator via gears. Other power improvement consumables (LL oil f.x.) don't have such effect, because Russian tanks (which use them) have electric-driven turret rotation (SS: this is true. For example in Tiger, the turret rotation speed was directly tied to the actual engine RPM)
- there is "no guarantee" that reward tanks (such as the M60, Failowe and Object 279) will appear for other nations too
- SerB states there were other possibilities for Soviet tier 10 medium spot, but in the end, Wargaming picked the serially-produced vehicle (the rest were prototypes/paper tanks)
- SU-122-44 and T-44 might not have the same amount of suspension hitpoints (SS: in fact, the SU-122-44 suspension has the same amount of HP as the T-44 stock one, T-44 elite one has cca 25 percent more)
- SerB on leaks (whether he thinks there are too many lately): "Yes, generally, there are rumors and then there are rumors. There isn't much harm from them, but if we catch the leakers, we'll take action."
- the devs are collecting statistics on stock vehicles too
- the possibility to reload faster when the tank is standing won't happen, it would encourage camping
- the arties of various tiers will have the same MM as tanks in 0.8.6

    It's like wargaming is saying:
    - I want to play a game.

    Since when Object 907 got replaced by Object 279? o.O

  4. As for not resembling real places, can you ask SerB about this building? http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/229575-common-building-on-maps-that-resembles-the-warsaw-royal-castle/

    1. you know, "Pearl River" map is made on about real place and real bridge.

      Delete
    2. >about real place
      yeah, china...

      > real bridge
      lol

      of course they are making assets based on RL objects
      its so much easier (and there is nothing wrong with that)

      >SerB states that Wargaming intentionally doesn't make its maps to resemble real life places (with real life names)

      it does NOT mean they are not basing some parts of the maps or assets on rl places

  5. "- the reason for the tank silhouette not displaying when looking thru a fire of a burning tank is one of the properties of game render"

    That's like saying : "It's not a bug. It's a feature".
    Yet another proof that wargaming is a crappy company.

    What does that mean ?

  7. "the arties of various tiers will have the same MM as tanks in 0.8.6"

    well that's just fantastic, I can't wait for the tier 7 arties with 1850-2000 damage end up fighting tier 5 tanks. Just wonderful.

    4. In such a case, it would be a buff for the GW Panther, which moves from Tier 6 to 7, but won't meet Tier 10 tanks any longer. This patch is pretty interesting so far, let's see how it plays.

  8. - the high shell price for the Centurion I gun is "a conspiracy"
    Anyone know what he means by this? the shell price is clearly too much for the increase in pen.

    1. A simple he's an ass is answer enough imo.Sold my Cent 1 cuz it was just stupid the ammount of creds i was spending for a tier 8 med.
      If WT's ground forces is even 70% as good as their aircraft part then WOT can seriously kiss my ass!

    2. you guys mad or something? It has a gun from the heavy tank O.o

      Which other medium does have 225 penetration at tier VIII?

      Just be sure to hit the target and you won't feel the price..

      And anyway tier VIIIs aren't meant for credit farming.

    Can you please prepare for and start commenting on War Thunder Ground forces?

    soon you will have these 2 games with different approached, mechanics etc... you need another tab.

    1. and what if SS is not interested in WT...?

    2. SS is already spending enough time on this.. why would you ask such a thing from him :/

    3. But since he loves tanks he should play a game about them that is actually good.

    4. lol.. why are you even here if you don't like playing wot? O.o

    5. Judging by the actual content of that "teaser trailer" they are, unfortunately, still a long way off developing the ground forces side. i.e. there wasn't a single clip of anything in the vid..

  11. Object 279??? I guess you meant Object 907?

  12. "- according to SerB, gasoline increasing the turret rotation speed is realistic, because the increased engine RPM transfers to the turret rotator via gears."

    ...while my beloved T49 had as far as I remember a hand-cranked turret, which makes increasing its traverse speed by gasoline really silly

    1. This gasoline fumes are higher quality, breathing them the crew gets more high and strong.

  13. Franky, can you plz plz ask your friend in the russian forum, if he can ask, if the HP of Leo1s tracks is right? So far it takes longer than on the E-50M (100% RepCrew + Chocolate). Takes more than 7s atm
