KT repair prices costs on average 13.5k to 14.8k max while is3 cost 10k average to 11 k max to repair, so thats 30-40% more to repair the KT compared to is3? Why exactly? aren`t they the same tier?

Gobrot, on 08 April 2011 - 03:49 PM, said: Problem i see is that during a battle accidentle team hits can occur, 2 tanks fighting in close quarters arty helps out and with it not being 100% accurate its possible they hit a team mate, 2 people having a fire fight at ranged distance and someone drives through the middle of it and gets hit by team mate ( may lead to accidental team kill ).
So will these things be took into concideration in this system?

2. Teamkiller will be marked by blue icon. What about players mod for colorblinds? AFAIR they used blue color.

BadNews420, on 07 April 2011 - 11:31 PM, said: Was reading E50 E75 E100 engines thread and have some question about dropping panthers down in tier... What will happen with the exp and money invested in panther and panther 2 if they get dropped down a tier to make room for E50? i guess you buy back the tanks and modules for full price? Will we get back the exp invested above tier 6 as free exp that can be used on anything or will we only be able to use it on german mediums? or don't we get anything so we shouldn't learn german medium above tier 6 until E50 is released? or how have you planed to do it?

2. What will be the nerf for the redundant buff?
3. Why is it buffed in the first place?


Rhovan, on 08 April 2011 - 09:43 AM, said: Question:
Do WoT REALLY want a balanced game?
I mentioned not if i compare the both new premium tanks in WoT Newsletter 20
Example:
Löwe (Tier 8)
Hitpoints 1650
Armor
120/80/80
120/80/80
Penetration 232
Damage 320
R/min 6
Dmg/min 1920
KV-5 (Tier 7)
Hitpoints 1250
Armor
170/150/90
180/150/140
Pene 167
Damage 300
R/min 7,69
Dmg/min 2307
So you really think thats balanced?


Vincinzerei, on 08 April 2011 - 10:05 AM, said: @ST61
the Question is not about "hardwipe" or not.
its about
When the Developer Decide to make a Tank Premium who is currently not premium. What happens to said tank?
Will he be removed from the garage, will the player lost all upgrades (canon, motor etc..)
or is it yet to be discussed?

Szalona, on 08 April 2011 - 12:54 PM, said: ROF of M6A2E1 looks indeed very low. Can you reconsider it to something like 5.5?

Link on message: #462102

Koo294, on 07 April 2011 - 09:08 PM, said: Not true. A lot of Russian tanks cannot turn on the spot. And I believe T-54 is on of them.
All SPGs/TDs can, and most of the German tanks, and a lot of the American tanks, but not many of the Russians (is there any?).
Just to clarify, turning on the spot is 1 track back, 1 track forward, so the tank is turning about the centre. Not doing this, only moving one track, is slower and the tank also moves in a tight circle.
Also, since you like training battles so much, and since you can beat a pershing in your T-54 "with one hand", i shall challenge you. No using 2 hands though .

It doesn't make sense if you are forced automatically to buy specific upgrade for specific tank to avoid specific problem.

My question is, wherefrom we get these box-tanks?


Kieme, on 06 April 2011 - 07:57 PM, said: Hi there,
I would like to ask this:
1) Are there any news on the "box version" release of WoT (ETA, status)?
2) Assuming that the boxes will differ from each other in terms of gift content (tanks), will they give the same amount of gold (i.e. have the same price)?
3) Will new boxed versions be released as new nations' tech trees will become available in the future?
4) Could you speculate on the distribution plans (if they have been developed already) of such boxed versions (EU): will they take the way of large software product distribution, or, maybe, magazine distribution, or something else?
5) Are the boxed versions planned gift tanks strictly related to the box concept or might such tanks be released sooner as Premiums - in the event of a delay in box version release (with the addition of different gift tanks)?
Thanks again!


WhiteHyena, on 06 April 2011 - 03:13 AM, said: Just curious; I know you guys decide what tanks to nerf/buff based on mass stat data, right? (which frankly I disagree with, that's an awful system ) but what's your current policy on the under-played tanks?
I mean surely at the moment if you decide to buff a tank because it's got X% less win ratio than its tier rival or whatever then what do you do about the tanks that are seriously under-played? Logically that's a massive sign that something is wrong with these tanks, hence why so few people are using them, right? Likewise if any tanks have much much greater player numbers. The obvious examples here are the Maus and the T-54. General opinion is that the (current) Maus is possibly the worst tank in this game.. so is it any surprise that it's also got such low numbers in comparison to the IS-7 and T-30? Again the T-54, hailed as probably the best tank in the game right now.. you claim it's balanced and yet when we see figures about how many people are playing it both on the Rus servers and EU, there's considerably more people using T-54s than anything else.. don't you ever stop and wonder why that is?
So... yeah, just curious what you guys do about that, if anything?

-Box version... it works with a promocode in the box no??? is because if i find interesting the box i will buy it but now i plan do a preorder.
-E series... and in general tanks missing on tech trees, my question is if when 12 april comes on tech tree appear the box to expend XP to open this missing tanks or we need mantein or rebuy tanks that open this tanks, for example 3001P open Tiger P but is not ready, on 3001P research appear the Tiger P box or not???
Thanks.

http://forum.worldof...are-calculated/
You said that you would have done the same for XP gain.
Well... we're waiting
Can you confirm that M46 will be the new USA T9 medium ?
Pershing will become T8 ? With which gun as TOP ?
Will it be possible to upgrade it to become M47 ?
When new revised German and USA tree will come alive, will we get a soft wipe ? or at least get free exp and money equal to the one invested in theese tree ?


Lobo, on 07 April 2011 - 12:40 PM, said: So I suppose that none of the current tank present in tech-trees will be removed or converted to Premium. Correct ?


Gawin, on 07 April 2011 - 01:16 PM, said: Sorry if this have been asked before, but I couldnt find anything on it by searching.
Will you implement the option to see more statistics from a battle, which you dont get if you leave the game before it ends. Meaning see more then just if it was a win/loss and how much xp/credits.

Probably ammo rack needs more HP, or to become smaller, or anything. I will be surprised if in long term nothing will be done regarding this.
