Fair enough if you have been but statistics cant recreate how the tank handles and how people feel who drive it. Especially for those who have both as their opinion is more gratified.
And just out of curiosity how many people are actually working on this project game?
i mean developer wise not customer services or support etc.
Raketensegler, on 23 March 2011 - 08:49 PM, said: What do you plan then to increase German gunpower of Tier 5 and 6?
German tanks have nothing comparable to the ZiS-6 and D10T (the 7,5
l/70 and 8,8 l/56 are 30-40mm short in terms of penetration and
have much less damage). This is the case for tanks as well as
TDs.
As of now no increase of penetration for the 8,8 l/56 was planned which is desperately needed.
Overlord, wouldn't you agree that the 7,5/l100 could close this gap nicely from a mechanic wise point of view as well as thematically?
Since pre order is starting tomorrow I want to know what buffs are actually planned for German tanks and the above mentioned examples of completely superior guns warrant some comment.
What (exactly) is planned for the 12,8/l55?
Lito, on 23 March 2011 - 11:47 PM, said: Are there any updates for the german TD line, camo wise?
Will it be fixed in the next patch?

so it shows what area they are in when they call for help as it
stands now when they shout for help its guesswork to know where
they are.
Also any plans to bring in an indicator for arty to show when they are reloading, this would help other players see their status and not keep calling out for arty to fire given their slow reload times.
Thanks

Overlord: If you look through "Improving German Vehicles" topic, you will see
that's not true actually. Moreover the list from the OP is far from
being full. We have some other curious ideas that are currently
under consideration. Most of them will make it to the future
patches.
All current balance discrepancies are wll-known and will be seen to in due time.
About 100 people.

Quote - Waiting. I typically spend more time waiting than playing. Either I play agressively, die and spectate, or I wait in ambush, die anyway, and spectate the rest of the time.
Quote If you do not like watching battles you can always develop another branch of tanks. Then quit out of the battle you died in, and fight with a second tank.
Quote Locking away one of the games key features for non-premiun users. Namely, the social part. Not being able to use voice chat very badly undermines the ingame communication, I have yet to see a single properly coordinated battle, or even hear a single user speak.
Quote - The effect from the above, especaily the later two, is that the strategy element of the game is very limited. Especialy team strategy. Without it it doesnt make much of a game for me.
Quote - Balancing anyone? Is this a feature yet to be implemented? Not even a rock-paper-scissors system, instead a rock-boulder-mountain system. My medium tank spends its better battles making some much bigger tank wonder whats making that 'ding' noise all the time*. Its worse battles is where it finds out. Bonus expierience (of which I typically see very little as the whole dying thing cuts experience in half) or not, its not entertaining.

tank company. But you are free to join the existing platoon\tank
company and cooperate using voice chat there.

new impressions.

Vallter: We are working on improving the current matchmaking system. Also
you can try to hit the weak spots of enemy tanks. And there are
different strategies for different tank types. Killing enemy is not
the only goal of battle. Scouting can give benefits too.

I just attributed the lack of posts in the recent time to the fact that after the open beta and the announcement of the game going live, the amount of TKs increased exponentially.
Vallter: There are two different systems in our game for finding and
punishing Team Killers:
One is the Automatic System, that is described in the game rules. The Team Killers banned by this system and not reported by players are listed in the special topics in mentioned forum branch. We have not posted new lists recently, because all Team Killers banned by the system were also reported by players.
The second is the 'ticketing' system. You send a screenshot,if any, and\or a detailed description of the issue to the Support Center. Then Technical Supporter starts the above-described process.
The first system is banning players, who have violated the game rules many times. This users can't be judged by usual EULA statements and can even receive a permanent in-game suspension. And this why we can post their names on forums.

Quote One of my clan mates reported a TK-er earlier and didn't get any words from tech support.
Vallter: A ticket submitted even for the simple report can't be closed
without an answer. If you haven't received it because of some
technical issue, you can send a request to the Support Center with
a 'problem' ticket ID included in the message and they will resend
the answer.
Quote This has not been my experience, hence my question. Unfortunately, I've submitted a number of TK tickets, for myself and on behalf of ally victims, and I've never had a response that sanctions were taken/not taken. Is this something new?
Vallter: The normal response is 'We will consider possible sanctions against
the player' and this means in 98% of cases, that the reported
player will be punished. If not, Support Center will inform you
about this in a special message and explain the reasons.
Quote What is the significance of "(chat)"?
Vallter: This is a type of suspension in the game the prohibits the use of
battle chat and all garage channel. It is usually applied for any
violation of rules, that regulate norms of in-game communication

Vallter: The whole track damaging system will be reworked in the version
0.6.4 patch. You will be able to damage tracks if you hit the
leading or the rearmost wheel of the tank. It will be much more
difficult to detrack it by hitting middle part of the tank. Also,
if the trajectory of the shell after hitting tracks goes to hull,
damage will be dealt to the tank.

Sorry but German engineering was much more superior to Russian, so if anything, German modules should be most resilient to damage.
Oh and it would be nice to have a gearbox added to the list of stuff that can break because having the gearbox a part of the engine is just f*%&ing up the Tiger even more since we're being all historically accurate with a forward gearbox... if you're going with historical accuracy you should make it so that gearbox does what it did in real life... aka make the Tiger quite agile for it's size.
But noooo of course not.. that would make too much sense.
PS: I know the German tanks will be getting a buff but that doesn't revoke my right to complain about it.

Vallter: Gearbox in our game is a part of engine. Because of this you can
hit some German tanks in the front and lit them up. Also all tanks
a modeled according to the historical reality and correspond the

Vallter: 1)If I remember right, persons, who quit battle at the very
beginning, receive 0 credits and 0 XP, but still have to pay the
repair cost. As for "go there and die" battle style... We have a
free game and every user can play in his own style. If you don't
want to suffer from this issue in random battle, join a tank
company or play in a platoon.
2)We are working on the matchmaking system and add some upgrades with every patch. Also we await improvement in work of the the current system, when the amount of players will significantly increase. Also we are planning to change a bit MT rating system.

Vallter: There are no plans to change the limit of platoon members. For more
numerous teams and, especially, clans tank companies are
implemented in the game. In this way a well-organized group of
players will engage only groups of the same level. Also we are
discussing the possibility to add companies with different point
limits.
RaZoR193, only 1 player with a premium account is needed to form up a platoon. If you don't want to buy a premium account you are free to join existing platoons or tank companies.

Suggestions for platoon, in-game chat status, "try my tank"

Subject: Archives\Beta\Suggestions\Suggestions for platoon, in-game chat status, "try my tank"
Link on message: #440120
Quote It may also help to have a "platoon whisper" chat mode. This way we can text chat among platoon members without annoying the entire team, for the cases when the platoon doesn't use the voice chat. You could even have a setting for text chatting while being a member of a platoon: by default you chat with the platoon (Enter) and need to do Shift-Enter to send a message to all team, or the other way around (Enter default for the team and Shift-Enter for platoon).
In garage, it would be absolutely great to have some sort of indicator in chatrooms/clans/private chats whether a person is in the garage (and can pay attention to the chat) or they are in a game.
Quote A potential development could be a "try my tank" feature, allowing a friend or clan member to try out one of your tanks in battle before they decide to research/buy one. Obviously, when a friend plays one of your tanks, it's the hands-on experience that should be the only benefit. To discourage the potential abuse of this, there should be nothing else gained or lost: that tank driven by someone else in battle should not accumulate experience points or credits, and no expenses with repairs/resupplies, either for the person driving the tank or for the owner of the tank. If this is not sufficient, you may consider allowing "tank sharing" enabled only to premium accounts, or perhaps require a small cost of (5-10-20) gold for each game played with someone else's tank.
