little things beeing done to keep the players that are playing this
game since the beta started satisfied.
I for one realise a drastic decrease of the once super active players around me. The game has just very little to offer after you have reached a certain point.
Shure the upcoming tournament and the show matches might get some of those playing again, but to be honest only a very small part of the player base can participate in those. The rest will have to wait for another month and they could easily start to play another game and then be lost for wot forever (just like l4d2 lost me after i started playing wot).
As for the list beeing an "ad":
I thought you (Overlord) had your opinion based on statistics, that showed that the german tanks are not that much superiour than their russian counterparts (except the t54).
That is a opinion i share... yes i think that the german heavy tanks (T8 and T9) are actually stronger than the russian ones. The maus is a small fortress that in some situations, if played correctly can be a way bigger thread than any other T10 tank. Yet those tanks will be buffed. In my opinion wargaming is giving in to all the players that are "crying" for german buffs for roughly 4 months now. Why would they do this? Because comments like "german armor needs a buff, or you wont see my money" can be seen more often these days.

Overlord: You might want to look through this topic, if you
haven't.
In general German tanks are fine, but some changes are required indeed. Those are more like adjustments and fixes, not buffs.
Vigorous community feedback urges us to reassess the data gathered.

.
I dont know why you completely redesign pagorki, in my opinion it just needed a small number of tweaks but hey, work is beeing done!
Like every second line of the list seems to be a major update and improvement to the game itself, and the list is really long.
But as happy as i am, i seriously have to say that i dont know if i should believe all this. I am sorry to say this, but for me it does sound a little surreal, that a team of devs that was not able to implement any significant changes to the gameplay (except the removal of lag) in the 6 months i have played this beta, now suddelny presents a to do list of this magnitude.
I mean seriously, why not do these changes one by one? What is the point of having a beta running when you dont even use this oppertunity to test the game you are producing.
How should i know that this is not just one big advertising hoax to convince some of the beta testers that are unhappy with the game as it is to invest their money in your project?

how many issues are worked on, possibly removing good amounts of
grief felt by many players. And more information is always good.
One thing made me curious, though:
Volunteers? That doesn't sound nearly as cool as "mercenaries". Is the original mercenary concept scrapped altogether? I wouldn't be surprised, though, there has been some speculation that the original "mercenary" concept would have been possible only for the most hardcore gamers, as you had to be paying and earning everything yourself, opposed to a clan that has to pay for registration only once. So what do these "volunteers" do? Fight against clans over unoccupied provinces, perhaps?
Also, what the heck is a nomad clan? Clan without any provinces? How does that work? I am being very curious about these.
Feel free to not answer, I believe these questions will be answered later, when the implementation of these new clan war futures is a more current affair. I am very curious, though...
Anyway: Great job, dev team, and thank you, Overlord, for keeping us informed. I might be more active with this game after release than I predicted, depending on how quickly you are churning new patches.

Overlord: Volunteers are regular players who don't belong to any clan but are
willing to participate in clan wars. Having marked the respective
checkbox in-game they will be added to special waiting queue.
When a clan is not able to fill certain province with 15 tokens, clan leader of its deputy can use the help of volunteers to reman the team before the battle. Volunteers will join the pre-battle clan chat where clan leader is to finalize the roster choosing the exact players both from the clan and from volunteers.
Volunteers services will be paid with gold.

I dont like those kind of offenders, as they destroy a game total, seen that before in other online games.

1) Are the shots distributed linearly (i.e. same chance of hitting each spot within the circle) or non-linearly (greater chance to hit the closer to the middle of the circle, very small chance to hit at the edges)?
2) If not linearly, is it possible to get some numbers or formula on how the calculation of shot is done, i.e. central 25% of the circle has 50% hit chance?
3) Does crew skill affect shot distribution, given that 2 crews of different skill had a circle of the same size (obviously under different conditions)?

Overlord: For an obvious reason I won't go into details here, automated
system scans battle logs searching for potential violators both
team killers and bot-users. At this stage all suspensions are done
manually, in some minor cases violators get a warning message
(applies to non-regular bot-users).
The algorithms are being improved constantly.

influence of this loading system upon loader must have been rather
depressing.
Moreover 40 rounds per minute for 75mm gun wouldn't suit the balance.

more than 10 new maps are in development at various stages.

News from the Front\Developers Break Down Game Mechanics\Pre-release notesLink on message: #399903
Overlord: Last updated March 11, 2011
With the release approaching there is an urgent need to make up for a certain information deficiency. This thread is an attempt to cover top 10 most important points, issues, plans.
1. Release: Hardwipe & Prices For Gold
These dates are still considered to be rough, but should give batter understanding of projected time-lines.
ETAs:
Pre-orders launch: April, approximately 2 weeks before the release.
Release date: April. Hardwipe confirmed.
Note! The exact dates will be announced on the websites. ETA's will be updated as we near the respective events.
The exact prices for gold are to be announced. There are some organizational issues that are to be sorted out first.
US server:
set in US dollars
EU server:
set in Euros
1USD=1EUR rate won't be in use, overall prices will be practically the same for both servers.
Note! Available payment systems and other related details are to be announced.
Pre-order packages will be available approx two weeks before the game goes live. All in all there will be 3 options to choose from, each one contains certain amount of gold with discount and a premium vehicle (A-32, Pz. V/IV, M6A2E1), and a slot.
Pre-order stuff can be added to existing account.
2. Release Version and the Upcoming Major Update
Projected release version - v.0.6.3.x. It will be based on v.0.6.3.7 and contain 1 pre-order tank M6A2E1 that is currently missing.
Major update v.0.6.4 - preliminary patch notes:
New vehicles:
- 3 tier 8 SPGs: Object 261, Geschutzwagen-E, T92.
- 2 premium tanks: Lowe and KV-5.
- 2 tanks from full tress: Pz38 NA, KV-13.
Maps:
- 2 brand new maps.
- Completely redesigned Pagorki map.
- Reworked Komarin map.
New movement system that is supposed to remove about 70-80% of stuck cases.
Fixed hit boxes for several tanks (Maus, Jagdpanther, IS-7).
Added gold transfers between clan members.
Reworked detracking system. See new detracking mechanics section.
[Possibly] Reworked special graphic effects that is supposed to fix multiple fps drops.
Reworked the mechanics of credit and gold repair kits, fire extinguishers, first aid kits. Details to be announced.
Added advanced settings for voice chat and reworked some interfaces.
Added mute player function for voice chat.
Added individual adjustments of match-making value for each tank. Tanks of the same tier and type can be assigned with different values.
[Possibly] Fixed several cases of memory leak.
Reworked outlines of bases to reflect the actual radius more accurately.
Note 1! ETA to be announced.
Note 2! The update comes after the release.
Note 3! US TDs will be added with the update that comes after v.0.6.4.
Note 4! French tanks will be added after US TDs.
3. Visibility and Spotting Mechanics
Visibility and spotting system are being worked on. Below are some details.
Overall performance if the system will be optimized so as to consume less server resources
The rate of visibility checks will see significant increase (approx 3-5 times more frequent)
The number of "hard points" (special spots are verified during visibility checks and located on the vehicles) will be increased several times. That is supposed to make visibility mechanics more accurate and credible when determining sight between tanks.
The number of visibility "sight lines" each vehicle emits is going to be increased several times. Small objects (posts, stones, bushes etc) won't affect visibility mechanics the way they do it now, their influence is to be reduced.
"Camo" or visibility values are going to be reconsidered to reflect actual vehicle size and engine specs. Currently there is some mismatching, especially with German vehicles.
"Post-firing" visibility will be systematized and redesigned according to gun specs
ETA is to be announced.
4. Revision of Tech Trees
Currently we are considering possible revision of existing tech trees. The work is still in progress and there is no ETA for changes to arrive.
US tech tree, to a high extent, can be revised in the light of community feedback here.
5. Match-making System
The way match-making system performs currently is explained here (Dev breakdown with chart) and here (FAQ).
Plans for future:
Match-making spread for the majority of the vehicles is not planned to be decreased
Most of improvements will be done by means of changing match-making value ("weight") of the vehicles, that enables us to adjust the probability of getting into battles of a particular tier without changing actual match-making spread
It will be possible to assign unique match-making value to each individual tank (currently assigned according to tier and type, i.e. all tier 8 heavies have the same value)
Several adjustments will be made when tier 8 SPGs (soon) and tier 5 light tanks (not soon) are added
Match-making value for tier 9 medium tanks is to be increased that will bring them in battles of higher tiers
No match-making system for company battles
Company battles are going to be divided into several sub modes: according to overall tier of a company, limited to min/max tier of vehicles in it, faction-based company battles
Most probably overall tier division for companies will correspond to current battle leagues
6. Clan Wars
International clan wars beta will start in a few months after the release.
Non-exhaustive list of features for clan wars currently in development:
New territories on global map.
Special in-game maps for most important historical provinces.
Fog of war in special battles. Neither team is aware of its opponent's roster.
Reconnaissance.
[Distant plan]Engineering structures in controlled provinces: bunkers, automated (bot-guided) weapon emplacements, mine fields etc.
[Distant plan]Call for artillery- and air-strike covering the whole square.
New battle formats. One base per map, bigger teams.
Political features: diplomacy and alliances, super-capitals, revolts.
Volunteers functionality (replacement for mercenaries).
Nomad clans.
7. German Vehicles
Having re-assessed statistics on vehicles performance and following vigorous community feedback, including but not limited to topics here and here, some changes are going to be made to German vehicles.
1. Fixed hit-box for Maus (example)
Fixed issue with lower front hull armor plate and "mudguards" (see "armor-schielding" below)
8 additional armor groups for gun and mantlet that can be assigned with separate parameters.
Added "armor-shielding" mechanics for mantlet and possibly front hull. "Armor-shielding" decreases actual penetration power of the shell, allowing shell to go further with reduced penetration ability.
Reworked mantled to reflect non-homogenous armor, gun hole in the mantlet and areas where mantlet armor overlaps with front turret armor.
ETA - v.0.6.4.x update
Note! Tiger II, VK4502, Ferdinand, Jagdtiger might be reworked in the same way, when the performance of "fixed" Maus is assessed.
2. Reconsidered and systematized visibility values for tanks and especially TDs.
ETA - v.0.6.4.x update
3. Adjustments to max speed values of Tiger and Tiger II are under consideration.
8. SPGs & Balance
Current SPGs mechanics is working as intended. The role artillery carries out in battle coincides with projected designations
No major changes are planned
Implementation of tier 8 SPGs is not going to cause significant rebalancing of lower tier units
9. New Game Modes
Several new game modes are in development
Assault mode - one team is to defend the base, the other one is to capture it
Domination mode - 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 new game modes
At this time - no ETAs
10. New Detracking Mechanics
The size of front and rear trucks/wheels for each particular vehicle will be specified in %.
I.e. suspension/tracks will consist of 3 major parts:
- front (approx 15-20% of its length)
- middle
- rear (approx 15-20%)
Hits for each part are to be calculated separately:
Hitting the front and rear parts will detrack the vehicle the way it works currently, ie the damage done to leading wheel or idler.
The middle part will have more hit points and reduced chance to be damaged.
The above is supposed to reduce the effectiveness of plain firing at tracks. One will need to aim accurately to detrack the opponent (damage either front or rear wheel/truck)
The image below roughly represents new system.
Green areas will be limited to the size of leading wheel and idler.
This post will be timely updated.
Topic for discussion.
With the release approaching there is an urgent need to make up for a certain information deficiency. This thread is an attempt to cover top 10 most important points, issues, plans.
1. Release: Hardwipe & Prices For Gold
These dates are still considered to be rough, but should give batter understanding of projected time-lines.
ETAs:
Pre-orders launch: April, approximately 2 weeks before the release.
Release date: April. Hardwipe confirmed.
Note! The exact dates will be announced on the websites. ETA's will be updated as we near the respective events.
The exact prices for gold are to be announced. There are some organizational issues that are to be sorted out first.
US server:
set in US dollars
EU server:
set in Euros
1USD=1EUR rate won't be in use, overall prices will be practically the same for both servers.
Note! Available payment systems and other related details are to be announced.
Pre-order packages will be available approx two weeks before the game goes live. All in all there will be 3 options to choose from, each one contains certain amount of gold with discount and a premium vehicle (A-32, Pz. V/IV, M6A2E1), and a slot.
Pre-order stuff can be added to existing account.
2. Release Version and the Upcoming Major Update
Projected release version - v.0.6.3.x. It will be based on v.0.6.3.7 and contain 1 pre-order tank M6A2E1 that is currently missing.
Major update v.0.6.4 - preliminary patch notes:
New vehicles:
- 3 tier 8 SPGs: Object 261, Geschutzwagen-E, T92.
- 2 premium tanks: Lowe and KV-5.
- 2 tanks from full tress: Pz38 NA, KV-13.
Maps:
- 2 brand new maps.
- Completely redesigned Pagorki map.
- Reworked Komarin map.
New movement system that is supposed to remove about 70-80% of stuck cases.
Fixed hit boxes for several tanks (Maus, Jagdpanther, IS-7).
Added gold transfers between clan members.
Reworked detracking system. See new detracking mechanics section.

US heavies could be pushed up in tiers. It just irks me to see any
of them lower than the actual Pershing is. 
So M6A2E1 will be tier 7 premium tank I presume, with 105mm T5E1? Well EU preorderers get this too or is this for the yanks?

Tanitha: With this being the Euro forum, the German players are high in
number, and a lot of them are passionate about their tanks : )
In history the German tanks were pretty good. So for those two reasons the German tanks are popular.

LiannaSilverwind: Thank you for your impression!
Fighting bush-campers may not sound easy at first, but as long as team cooperates, campers will always fail against team that works together. It definitely helps to cooperate with the others, help artillery to spot campers, focus fire and use every cover possible when advancing against campers position. Most maps have very uneven terrain and your tank can use every small hill, rock or bush to gain cover important for getting in range with your hiding enemy and spotting it for your team.
Going one by one is inviting certain death.
Good luck in your WoT endeavours!
