HeavyDiveKick, on Aug 30 2012 - 03:45, said: Another question:Why is it that in Tank Training, the repairs cost nothing but ammo still requires money?
This makes it really inefficient to train at tier VIs or above.
Vallter: Because there are no mechanics to track, in which type of battle
rounds were shot. And such feature has very low priority.

applied to the game. Are game developers going to make it if your
tank is big enough all building and structures will be destroyable.Vallter: Physics in the game and destruction of objects are two different
features. We will enable more destructible objects in future. But
still, all calculations for our game are run server side. Thus we
won't be able to make all objects on maps fully destructible. There
is just no servers in the world that currently can support this.
Eliminateur, on Aug 30 2012 - 15:21, said: Vallter,where/from where are the questions list for the ASAP compiled from?
Vallter: It's compiled via forum monitoring. Questions are gathered by
Community managers constantly from all topics, including this one.
M18HellCat, on Aug 30 2012 - 15:53, said: Vallter,When do you think the second German medium line will be added?
Will there be any changes to the Super Pershings acceleration or speed?
If the B1 is getting a buff like you said, will the B2 also receive the buff as well?
Are you still planning on replacing the T-50-2? Or did you fix it's physics problems by reducing its traverse?
What is planned for the Type 62 in 8.0? Any buffs?
Thanks.
Vallter: 1)Next year, most probably.
2)There are no plans to change SP in any way currently.
3)No, B2 is performing well and has no need in buff.
4)We reduced traverce speed on 20% currently, but still, we want to replace it with another vehicle.
5)No buffs. Vehicle is performing extremely well. I would suggest you learning some guides on it or Chaffee.

M18HellCat, on Aug 30 2012 - 15:56, said: Also:What tier will the Ersatz M10 Panther be?
What tier will the SU-122-44 be?
Will the SU-122-44 get the same DPM as the SU-152 with it's top 122? (They use basically the same gun, as ITDUDE has shown)
When will the PzKpfw IV go on sale as a premium tier 6?
Is the ELC AMX getting nerfed in 8.0?
When do you plan on adding the T23 back to the game?
Why was the Lorraines and Bat Chat's traverse speeds nerfed in 7.5? They can hardly turn now.
Vallter: 1)Tier 7
2)Tier 7
3)We will look how it will perform on tests. What can be stated for sure, it will be slightly underperforming compared to top SU-152
4)Most probably in version 8.1
5)ELC AMX won't be changed in 8.0
6)There are no current place for T23 in the game. We will probably enable it, when picture changes.
7)Because they were slightly oveperforming.

Super_Salo7, on Aug 30 2012 - 16:23, said: As of right now the tanks used for clan wars are T110 (E4 and E5),
M48A1, Bat Chat 155 and 25. All other tanks are used
only if the above tanks are not available.Question: will you re-balance some tanks so everybody has more or less same chances in a CW or a pub.
Vallter: T110E4 and M48A1 will be slightly nerfed in 8.0. Also, E-100 will
get a buff. Moreover, probably only Tank Locking can make situation
better.
WarStore, on Aug 30 2012 - 16:51, said: Such as?They certainly don´t have higher view range. They don´t have higher RoF, even with plenty of room for the crew.
Mobility? Nope.
Higher accuracy? Nope
The only thing I can think of is "arty magnet". Big tanks excel at this being easy arty targets. Is this the "other advantages"?
Teamoldmill is not asking for huge camo values for the Maus/E-100 series, but they also don´t have any advantages for being that big. They are easily spotted, but can´t spot enemies firing at them because they get the same view range value as those small russian and french tanks.
Vallter: Biggest HP and great armor are for sure not an advantage....
Death187, on Aug 30 2012 - 16:51, said: I sent them a reply last night and was told they were still
investigating it. I will send them another message to ask for an
ETA.Thanks for not dodging my questions. We are all pretty frustrated with the hits for no damage so any explination or changes to the game to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Have the Devs considered making a damage minimum for every hit that penetrates? That would eliminate the problem we have been having. This is really taking the fun out of playing the JPE. When you hit for no damage you are then helpless for 22 seconds while you reload only for it to possibly happen again.
Vallter: Yes, we do plan to add some minimum damage for such hits, specially
for suspension, but it's still lots of work to do on that. We
change it gradually. Unfortunately, I cannot give you any ETA on
when this process will be finished.
Though this case is quite strange even for current system. Are you sure that your mate have not received a critical hit for a gun and then repaired it?

Timberwolf84, on Aug 30 2012 - 16:52, said: Why does the E 50 M have such a slow ROF when compared to the US
and Russian mediums?Why nerf the T 30? They are easy to kill as long as they are not hull down. If they are hull down they are amazing, but that is the driver and not the tank that needs a nerf lol. I do not see why the T 30 needs any nerf at all, it got hit by the nerf bat in almost all updates since I started playing.
What will happen to the Panzer IV? It is a great tank, but not OP.
When grinding for a tier 10 it should feel like an upgrade. Why in the world would I want to switch from my E-75 to the E 100 when my tier 9 is a better tank in my opinion? The E 75 is smaller, quicker and still has decent armor. Why switch to the E 100 when it can not penn anything unless it uses gold?
Vallter: 1)It has other advantages, for example, speed.
2)Well, it's always slightly overperforms compared to other TD's
3)It will be different.
4)E-100 has just different way of playing.

Brann, on Aug 30 2012 - 17:13, said: I running out of questions but I have one more....for now:I sat down and compared the tier 4 medium tank's guns and I found that the T-28 and M3 Lee have way better guns than the Panzer 3, in both damage and pen. The 5cm guns on the Pz3 are simply underwhelming and the L/24 is a good gun put it doesn't allow you to fight your own tier or higher very well, you can scratch stuff but you don't tend to do very much damage. As it sits the Pz3 is more mashed into a quasy heavy scout role rather than a medium.
Vallter: Slightly better gun does not give M3 Lee or T-28 possibility to
overperform. Pz III had other advantages and overally is a decent
vehicle.
ARGENTVS, on Aug 30 2012 - 19:42, said: -skipped-Vallter: Though we are trying ti be close to the historical accuracy, we are
looking more for the game balance. Moreover, Panther and Tiger are
clearly overperforming the T-34. Because this in most time the only
vehicle they were against. Unfortunately, this is forgotten many
times, while comparing German and Soviet vehicles performance in
WWII
MM is not going to be based on skill in our game for current game modes.

Timberwolf84, on Aug 30 2012 - 19:51, said: Well said! I am eagerly awaiting the reply to the above post.Very good point about the Maus reload time. Same caliber gun as E 75, and it has 2 loaders......should be much better ROF.
Vallter: You probably have not ever seen a shell loading process of the
tank, which is also influenced on internal space of the vehicle,
ammorack and many more factors. Thus, RoF depends a lot also on
turret.
Brann, on Aug 30 2012 - 20:24, said: Could you guys be any ruder? If I was Valter I wouldn't
even bother replying.I agree that the top tier German tanks need work but the way you guys go about the issue isn't going to help anything.
Vallter: E-100 and JagdPz E100 will be buffed. We are still gathering
statistics on new Tier X mediums, so will change only M48A1, which
has already shown to be overperforming. Possible changes for E-50M
will be discussed only after 8.0. We are currently satisfied with
state of Maus, though, still, we will take a very close look on
performance on all Tier 10 after introduction of physics. Also,
Tier X mediums influence on the game will be more evident by that
time, so we will probably plan some changes to top tiers.
Herr_Klug, on Aug 30 2012 - 20:32, said: General Direction responded to me and stated the collectors boxed
versions were no longer in the works. Has this idea been rethought
then and collector sets are planned after all to include the
premium tank(s)?Vallter: Well, probably not for NA. We sell box editions in a many EU and
SEA countries. Though I still hope that we will be able to make a
box version for NA also.
