Draconas, on 11 January 2011 - 07:21 PM, said: Overlord, few quick and hopefully painless questions.1. Any word on matchmaking tweaks? there is no huge problem here, however seeing some games with 3 t-44 vs 3 tiger 2's 90% = victory for tiger 2's, more balance of high tier mediums would definitely solve this, arty and heavy balance are pretty good.
2. You have mentioned the sight/firing/camo system posed a serious problem and would be addressed, is there any word on pre/release implementation of this?
3. I see you are starting on french tech tree, now by the your earlier posts i'm not sure if it was made clear if french would be out with release, can you confirm/deny french coming out with release?
4. While you have said beta gifts were under discussion, my question is slightly different, will there be a package available to beta/players in general for gold purchasing in first month or so of release? While many beta players might feel frustrated about the wipe issue, i believe some incentive package might help quell some of these, any previous discussion on this topic?
5. Finally, you have said that February 2011 is to be estimated release of WoT, are there any plans to enable a sort of continual game mode with numbered re-spawns or separate objectives (retrieve the spy/assassinate the dignitary, etc) in the near future?
Overlord: 1. No news on match-making adjustments currently, need to get and
assess the data first. For sure, there will be improvements.
2. Planned rework of visibility system requires game engine modification. At the moment we are not ready to share any information on that.
3. No, we won't manage to finish French line in Q1. Lowe, Pz 38 NA, KV-5, KV-13, and US TDs are possible, but not French vehicles.
4. I'm totally sure our guys will devise something. Prior to Russian release there were 5 packages with fixed amount of gold and bonus tanks (Pz V/IV, A-32).
5. At least two game modes are being worked on at the moment. Assault - one team is to defend the base, the other one is to capture it. Domination - there is one base in the center of the map and both teams are to capture it. Current maps will be reworked and adjusted to suit these two plus new maps will be added.
