LiannaSilverwind: Also notice that Double XP for first victory per tank per day is
NOT accounted for statistics like Average Experience or Maximum

2 000 XP.

donMoa, on 04 May 2011 - 10:43 AM, said: Sveiki! Spēlēt sāku nesen, kādas divas nedēļas laikam atpakaļ,
tāpēc nekādu lielo panākumu pagaidām man nav ar ko palielīties.
Krievu tanki ir vieglie BT-2(laba lidmašīna), BT-7, A-20(starp citu nav viņam nekādas vainas) un amīšu Stjuartiņi M3, M5 pagaidām.
Tā kā sitos vēl pa vieglo galu. Artilērija nepatīk, labprāt tos iznīcinu pretiniekam:)
Priecājos, ka ir latviski forums.
Pats programmeju mazliet PHP, tāpēc varētu uzlikt arī forumu latviski, ja vajag.
Klanos laikam man vēl par agru, bet tas nekas. Spēlei parasti atvēlu stundas divas vakaros.
Ak jā, krievu serverī spēlēju ar citu niku, taču ar to šeit nez kāpēc netieku, bet tikai krievu forumā.
Šim nikam man pat bija bans, bet tas tāpēc, ka jaunākais dēls pigorus sataisija ar manu kontu spēlējot:)

Our first intention was to award all players, who have finished the Quest successfully and have sent us the correct answers. But almost all of them posted the answers in different forum threads. Though we tried to delete them, this was not enough. We had doubts, that all users made the Quest themselves.
Next time we will announce the Quest some days before it's start, decrease the Quest time and use special functional. This will allow us to track and award all winners. If the release of the functional gets delayed, The Quest will be changed in the manner, forseed and posted by Dezix.

Overlord: Haven't decided yet, possibly 8.8см KwK 43 L/71.

Overlord: This is planned and we are working on it.

Overlord: TKs are not punishable if committed within a company, platoon,
and/or clan team in CW.

Overlord: Don't platoon with wrong guys, Teamkilling ones platoon mate is not
punishable, choose your friends wisely.

Overlord: There will TOP 10 charts covering number of provinces owned and
battles won. Later it will be expanded.
http://challenge.worldoftanks.ru/
http://challenge.worldoftanks.ru/

Overlord: This is very very unlikely.


Overlord: We already have Maus turret modelled, as for Krupp turret, our
military experts do think it is the most suitable one for mounting
15 cm KwK.


Question:The KV-1 and 2 wont get any upgreadable turrets right?
Overlord: Each one will have 2 turrets to choose from: welded and cast
models.

Overlord: Actually I like that map, though it's an old one.

Overlord: Platooned tanks have the same values for match-making purposes as
regular vehicles so one team can have several platoons while the
other one - none.

is it possible to get a warning when patch arrives to rebuy them ?
Overlord: Keep tabs on patch notes and official news and you won't miss it.

that there is issue with the game engine. But what exactly is going
on since big world developers have been boasting since early 2009
that there is multi-threaded client available? 2 years has passed
and no multi-threading. Is it still far away or has they abandoned
the development? Or has it something to do with how world of tanks
uses the client/engine?
MrCaffeLatte, on 01 May 2011 - 09:16 PM, said: Looking forward very much to the new TDs on the released tech trees
(thanks WG) but I have some worries. I hope I'm not repeating
questions - I searched the topic and I didn't really see anything
but perhaps I just didn't look hard enough:
Do 'ghost shells' exist? By which I mean shells which are shot while the aiming reticle is fully on the target and yet still manage to miss, with no impact graphics on a building/rock behind the target or on the ground near the target. While using the BL10 I encounter this on occasion, but I was wondering if this has been accepted as a 'bug' or 'problem' by the developers? I can imagine it being rather aggravating as more tanks with slower RoFs are released because it is painful having to wait another 20+s to try shooting again.
On a similar note, I also find myself doing 0 damage track shots when the tracks of a tank are not even visible and I am aiming at a completely different part of the tank.
Are these perhaps lag/ping related? I have rounds where I encounter none of these and others where a significant amount of my shots fall into one of these two categories.
Also, are there plans to limit the numbers of TDs per round, or at least have a more reasonable split between teams, as sometimes I see teams with 5 higher tier TDs and the other team has 1 or 2 low-tier ones.
Apologies if this has been asked/answered before.
Terminator210, on 30 April 2011 - 07:02 PM, said: Question about the StuG E-100
Which design would be choosen?
The design similar to the Jagdpanther (partial casemate), or the one close to the Hetzer (full casemate)?


The full casemate would offer several advantages. 1. lower profile, 2. better use of the inner space, 3. better sloping of the side and rear armour and 4. less weight, because the vehicle dimensions could stay smaller. The germans knew this too and so they would have chosen the advantageous design (in my opinion ...).
Which armament would it have?
150mm KwK?
175mm KwK?
Another question, why the Jagdpanther II is positioned in front of the JT? Isnt the JP II based on the E-50? It would make more sense if its positioned in front of the StuG E-100 in my opinion.
bfheroes89, on 01 May 2011 - 09:55 PM, said: Overlord I repeat my question, will the E100 look like the one on
the attached picture? If you have no permission to give such
information just please write it down
I'm grinding german heavies just for
this baby and really looking forward for confirmation. It simply is
beautiful
MrCaffeLatte, on 01 May 2011 - 10:04 PM, said: Thanks for the swift reply to my previous question.
I think I'm safe in saying, on behalf of the WoT community that enjoy playing (German) tanks, and just enjoy variety:
I beg you to implement a 175mm KwK for the E100 Stug. It would be an awesome tool for the team and just a great weapon to use if balanced correctly (not to mention it would provide the ideal counterpoint to the Jagdtiger's faster firing 128). I think this would help convey the somewhat eccentric tank designs by the Germans in WW2. It would be the epitomy of 'Tank Destroyer'. Plus, who doesn't like firing a bloody massive gun?
Onto my question:
Are there any plans to allow players to choose where to spawn on multi-spawn maps (e.g. Westfield)?
Stubentiger, on 01 May 2011 - 10:20 PM, said: Thanks for the answer. If I remove the crew of the PzKpfw 38H735(f)

v.0.7 with E-series and Porsche tanks - July-August. Everything is
very rough here, apart from 0.6.4.
2. If it is nerfed as planned the tank will be purshased back from players, crews and modules will be fefunded.

Apologies if this has been asked/answered before.
Overlord: This is pretty much pings/lag dependent. High pings mean bigger
delay in data transmission, ie larger discrepancy between
client-side and server-side reticles, thus your shell can actually
go not where you were aiming in the first place.
No limitations are planned. This applies to all classes.
No limitations are planned. This applies to all classes.

Which design would be choosen?
The design similar to the Jagdpanther (partial casemate), or the one close to the Hetzer (full casemate)?
The full casemate would offer several advantages. 1. lower profile, 2. better use of the inner space, 3. better sloping of the side and rear armour and 4. less weight, because the vehicle dimensions could stay smaller. The germans knew this too and so they would have chosen the advantageous design (in my opinion ...).
Which armament would it have?
150mm KwK?
175mm KwK?
Another question, why the Jagdpanther II is positioned in front of the JT? Isnt the JP II based on the E-50? It would make more sense if its positioned in front of the StuG E-100 in my opinion.
Overlord: Most likely the first one.
150mm KwK is more credible.
150mm KwK is more credible.


Overlord: The chassis seems to be correct, but this turret won't be
available. It will have Maus and Krupp turrets.
See - http://world-of-tank...om/1490231.html
See - http://world-of-tank...om/1490231.html

I think I'm safe in saying, on behalf of the WoT community that enjoy playing (German) tanks, and just enjoy variety:
I beg you to implement a 175mm KwK for the E100 Stug. It would be an awesome tool for the team and just a great weapon to use if balanced correctly (not to mention it would provide the ideal counterpoint to the Jagdtiger's faster firing 128). I think this would help convey the somewhat eccentric tank designs by the Germans in WW2. It would be the epitomy of 'Tank Destroyer'. Plus, who doesn't like firing a bloody massive gun?

Onto my question:
Are there any plans to allow players to choose where to spawn on multi-spawn maps (e.g. Westfield)?
Overlord: No, here we prefer complete random.

Overlord: Yes, sure.

Overlord: Internal testing will show, however both are likely to keep those
guns.

2: Any date for when it is comming a patch to fix the mantles? As they're not doing what they are supposed to do at the moment.

Overlord: 1. Most of side objects don't belong to vehicle hit boxes. Client
side cratches are not 100% accurate.
2. In the upcoming patch.
2. In the upcoming patch.

1. will the T34 have a specific module setup or will it get whatever you had teched when it goes premium?
2. will it be possible to get it by gold afterwards (the revised techtrees didnt show it as a premium) or will it only be atainable by having it teched before you change it?
Overlord: 1. It will have a specific module setup.
2. It will be treated as "regular" premium tank.
2. It will be treated as "regular" premium tank.

users filled in the questionnaire correctly. And only 7 of them,
who were the fastest, will receive the prizes:
Batman
Makikou
Virtus
Guhonter

Armitxes
mukero320
And now the correct answers on the questions:
1)VK 3001 (H)
2)The author is Bean0. 704 was added on the side of the spaceship
(the bird was a tip, that image was posted in our Twitter channel)
3)Christie Suspension System
4)Sydney Valpy Radley-Walters (born 1920)
But the same image on the European and Russian Wiki was for Pierre Billote (born 1906). And it supposed to be this tank ace. Now there is a correct (or none) image.
We beg our pardon for this technical inconvenience. Because of it the password for the next task was posted in the first message of the quest topic. But still you had to send us the name of the tank ace in the final questionnaire. We accepted both answers, Pierre Billote and Sydney Valpy Radley-Walters.
5)SU-76, SU-76M and Ferdinand. Mentioning two of three TD's guaranteed you the correct answer.
6)No, it was not mass produced.
And SerB is the Product Manager (WoT Producer) in the Wargaming.net Company.
What will be changed in the next quest?
1) We will try to integrate the quests into our portal functionality.
2) Number of questions will be increased. Difficulty of the questions will be increased.
3) The quantity of winners will be increased.
4) The Quest duration will be decreased.
5) The photo with SerB will be substituted -)
6) The Quest will be started during the EU server prime-time.

Tanitha: Hi..
Our records show you were banned for a day.. To the 3rd of may. And it wasn't a first offense..
So please check the date on your computer, and check the date on the ban again. I believe you are mistaken.
And to respond to the thread in general.
Premium does not stop when Banning's are placed. but the rules are pretty simple, don't shoot allies, doing so results in a fair ban placed. "No, not a week for a first offense."
0.6.4 is coming out soon, this will hopefully improve the TK System as well as many other features. Its a big patch, and contains a reworked TK system, and TKer flagging. ETc..
There is also no disputing bans allowed within the forums. Mainly for the reasons above, misinformation provided from the player/poster...
Problems goto support.worldoftanks.com via a ticket system, and reporting to the forums comes with a 7 day forum mute ban. But i'll place a warning instead, and cut you some slack.
As for the problem, do you have to left click when tabbing back? I alt tab occasionally with no problems. Doesn't the right click work just as well, without shooting?

I know that the rules do not permit team-kills, and that bans are applied for suspected deliberate team kills.
However, I would like to know two things:
1. If you fire a deliberate 'warning shot' near an ally, but do not hit him, is this grounds for a ban?
2. If you fire a deliberate 'warning shot' that hits by mistake, would it be treated as an accidental or deliberate team hit/kill?
Also, could you please answer my previous question on command tanks?

Overlord: No. You did no damage.
You did damage. There is no way of determining that you meant to just miss him so it is treated as any other scenario where someone shoots a team member, it will be examined under the normal criteria so if it was right at game start with no enemy nearby it will be judged as deliberate for example.

yet.

I am sure you can understand now why the community scream "Russian Bias" because stuff like this adds fuelto the fire

Overlord: This is under consideration as well, howeber rebancing of D-25T
will cause chain reaction and require several further adjustments,
unlike L/52 which is used only on 2 tanks.

LiannaSilverwind: From what I've read and studied, French tanks definitely were very
well armoured and carried good enough armament. Their disadvantages
were poor tactics, not enough crew to do their jobs properly, and
in general - low speed. It is surprising how efficiently did German
army used their tanks that had very weak armor for its time with
not powerful enough armament (Pz. II 20 mm cannon or Pz. I
machineguns, short-barreled Pz. III, short-barreled Pz. IV), it is
definite proof that training, tactics and organization, cooperation
of infantry, tank and aircraft was more important than just good
tanks or just good aircrafts or just good infantry armament etc.
