EU Questions & Answers

ComfortablyApathetic, on 15 January 2011 - 07:01 AM, said: Will the new spotting system put an end to invisible tanks, or just make spotting more consistent? The more radical the change, the better. I could rant for pages on end how the spotting system frustrates me, but I'll hold my tongue.
Any ETA on the new game modes?

Will there be any options (checkboxes) players can use to exclude certain maps or certain categories when they are ready to join the matchmaker? At current everyone has at least 1 map or 1 style of tank they dont like and since map votes dont exist this option can improve user enjoyment.
*looks around nervously*

Will their be a way to trade tanks, crews, gold, etc with other players for other tanks(as long as both players have the tank researched at all) or credits?
and also will their be like a way to Auction your tank or crew to other players so that their is a chance that you may receive more credits than what you would if you sold it to the store normally?
Sorry if these questions were asked before the thread got cleaned up.


DemonicSpoon, on 15 January 2011 - 08:55 AM, said: Are there any plans to allow matchmaking to take equipment, crew level, and modules fitted into account, or is tier and type the limit of what it will ever handle?


Afghane, on 15 January 2011 - 12:04 PM, said: In the above German tree screenshot, there are premium tanks with a "box" or "gift" label under them. Care to elaborate which will be available to US/EU players and in what form?


EchelonIII, on 15 January 2011 - 03:11 PM, said: What changes, if any, are planned for company mode? So as to allow smaller tanks to participate in, instead of the current system which weighs by tier alone (e.g. two Pz 4 = one IS-7)?


Arctander2, on 15 January 2011 - 04:39 PM, said: Question 1: I'm really curious about if/when any more information about Clan Wars will be added to the game and what it will mean for the game. As far as I can find, there's been nothing official added since October regarding this big feature in the game:
I've read everything in the two threads
http://forum.worldof...bout-clan-wars/
http://forum.worldof...r-1-global-map/
----
Question 2: There has been some mention about custom decals or information (clan logos) on tank skins, is there an ETA on when this will be implemented and any information about how it will work? Can we make our own, or will we be choosing from preset combinations?


aRmoreD_eX, on 15 January 2011 - 05:41 PM, said: Is there any information available about a pre-order start date?
Also when pre-ordering is getting ready to begin will beta testers get an advanced option to pre-pre-order?


berree, on 15 January 2011 - 07:13 PM, said: 4 questions
1.ETA on larger maps
2. 30vs30?
3. I've seen people saying the Panther 2 should actually be smaller than it is now any truth here?
4. Paint shop for tanks?


Glythe, on 15 January 2011 - 07:19 PM, said: 1. Since the values are already calculated in the game data, can we get a listing of effective armor rating whenever we see an armor value in game?
2. Can we have a more simplistic version of spotting enemy tanks in this game? If you shoot someone within their commander's view range you should be revealed. It is not fair to avoid detection with bush trickery (over and over again).
3. The Maus is largely considered to be inferior on the battlefield to the IS-7; will we see the coaxial gun working before release OR the E-100 for so there is an approximate "equal" between these two nations heavy tanks?


painless, on 15 January 2011 - 07:46 PM, said: When will dynamic stats be implemented? i mean stats like reload time, now its fixed and presents value with 100% crew, but when you get tank you only get portion of it due to crew efficency?
