so many codes at the same time. But your accounts should be
credited correctly. If not, please, contact our Customer

Gaea: Hey guys! Even though there is a timed out message, you should
still be receiving the goodies in game! Try out the code and then
check your account. I did it twice with the timed out message and
then got the goodies in game.

just add more problems/bugs.

still looks like your trapped in a dome. I was hoping on some
background improvements with this update.

rack the enemy? yes? Yes please? Does it? yes? Gonna? yes?
Also, they used completely different engine sounds for the trailer. I hope those are the new engine sounds we are getting cause they sound pretty good. If you just used them for the trailer cause you think your in-game engine sounds aren't good enough....well then give us some new ones cause we think the same.

Tanitha: Dear Players.
This section contains archived and past Q&A threads for your reference.
The current Official Q&A Thread: 7.5 Era is located here
http://forum.worldof...-thread-75-era/
In this linked thread you can ask us anything about World of Tanks and its development. We cannot promise an answer, but in those cases we will still respond to the question and state that an answer is not available. In some cases, it might take a bit of time to get an answer to a question. When those cases arise, we will quote the question and state that we're in the process of getting the answer.
Questions should be related to anything affecting the live game or future developments.
Have Fun & Happy Tanking.

Chojin, on Aug 09 2012 - 19:29, said: I guess I'll be the one dissenting voice and get lots of down
votes.
The graphics upgrade is very impressive (stunning really, I do want to see the maps with the new shadows and water) but I am not looking forward to the new physics.
I can't help but think this level of physics is like adding tripping mechanics in an FPS. You never see an FPS where you can die by slipping on the dirt, hitting your head on a rock and getting a concussion. That may be realistic but it's not fun.
WoT has always done a excellent job balancing realism and fun. I really liked how the original game was straightforward and let you focus on the fun parts of driving around massive warmachines blowing things up (or getting blown up in turn). I can only hope that same balance was applied with these new physics.
I just wonder how the game is going to be made more fun watching my tank capsize in a river or tumble down an embankment. Dying from the environment rather than dying from opponents is a major change in the gameplay, and I have to hope these physics do not make that a major element.
Because the alternative methods to kill opponents with jumping and ramming do sound very entertaining, but again that is the result of player actions, not terrain mechanics.

they checked yesterday and it was still schedualed for the 13th.
The date was changed so unproffestionally, as compared to how most

sudden, impulsive descision to change the date does not site well
with most anyone in the game. Developers, or whom ever is in

5th, and we responded to that concern both on the forums and by
rescheduling. We cannot grant rematches every time a team member
does not show up, there simply is not enough time to do that in
between each round. I recommend you keep an eye on the threads
related to any tournament in which you are participating as the
latest updates are likely to be found there (or in this case here,
as you will see on the previous page).

Liegor, on Aug 09 2012 - 17:42, said: with the physics update will there be physics for the environment?
Like if i run into a fence, instead of the poor animation it has
now, maybe it will tip over? or if i run into a car i might push it
forward or tip it over and a wheel falls off?
it would add even more polish to this game
calderhutchins, on Aug 09 2012 - 17:43, said: I have a few questions:
1. if your tank gets hit by a bullet, lets say 12cm will your tank receive "recoil" according to weight?
2. Release date, when it is estimated for 8.0?
3. what happens if your tank falls on another and your tank stays on top of theirs?
4. So i'v heard about that multiple shots to one area of a tank can weaken the armor, if that is not true then when will it be implemented?
Thanks in advance!

Vallter: We will polish this moment gradually within updates coming after
8.0. Though some effects will enter physics first iteration.

2. Release date, when it is estimated for 8.0?
3. what happens if your tank falls on another and your tank stays on top of theirs?
4. So i'v heard about that multiple shots to one area of a tank can weaken the armor, if that is not true then when will it be implemented?
Thanks in advance!
Vallter: 1)Nope. In real life it most probably would make a hole and not
just move your tank a bit. Other hit recoils are already in the
game.
2)September-October 2012
3)I doubt he will survive this, but tests will show.
4)Nope, this is not implemented and not planned, at least for nearest future.

ravines (and heavies getting high centered on lights!).Vallter: On Abbey there is a 'Death Zone' which works similar to water. You
should be speaking about it.

Liegor, on Aug 09 2012 - 16:42, said: with the physics update will there be physics for the environment?
Like if i run into a fence, instead of the poor animation it has
now, maybe it will tip over? or if i run into a car i might push it
forward or tip it over and a wheel falls off?
it would add even more polish to this game

1. if your tank gets hit by a bullet, lets say 12cm will your tank receive "recoil" according to weight?
2. Release date, when it is estimated for 8.0?

Vallter: We will polish this moment gradually within updates coming after
8.0. Though some effects will enter physics first iteration.

Subject: Camouflage system - 2.0
Link on message: #2416564
Link on message: #2416564
Gaea: In update 7.0 camouflages were introduced in the game. With them
tankers are now able to change the exterior of their battle
vehicles. But aside of adding more and more patterns, no changes
were done to the system itself. In update 8.0 we plan to change
this situation.
In the next World of Tanks update the camouflage system will be reworked. Players will receive the possibility to purchase 3 types of camouflage which will coincide with 3 types of maps – ‘Summer’, ‘Winter’ and ‘Sand’. The ‘Summer’ pattern will be displayed only on summer maps, like Prohorovka, while the ‘Winter’ pattern will camouflage tanks only on ‘Winter’ maps. The ‘Sand’ camouflage will color the vehicle in a similar way on the more sandy maps like El Halluf.
Camouflage will adapt to the landscape automatically if the appropriate pattern is purchased for the vehicle.
The camouflage menu will be changed (seeing this is only a draft, we were unable to create an English version):

But the main thing in the update is the fact that adaptive camouflage will now give a slight bonus to the camouflage rates of the vehicle. Currently it’s set to 5%, but the end percentage may change after tests. Bonus camouflage will stack with camouflage net and camouflage crew skill.
Camouflage, as it is currently, can be temporary purchased for credits or permanently set up (until a new purchase is made) on the vehicle using gold.
We want to remind you that this is only a work concept that may change upon your feedback and Public Test statistics.
A couple of points:More types of camo could be added in the future including urban.
If you have purchased camo in the past with gold it will be refunded (possibly) if you still own the tank. You will then get to choose the use the new camo system if you want. All old camo will be removed.
If you choose just to buy a winter camo on a tank, when you are on other types of maps you will have the standard non camo appearance.
You may not have 2 camos of the same type on the same tank. If you buy a second one the first is replaced.
Prices have not been set yet.
