Mugsy_: Hello Down_Range,
I looked into the T95 and I believe you successfully located a typo. The side armor says 30mm but I don't think that is accurate, I think it is a bug. If there was something else that you feel we failed to inform you please let me know and we can look into it. Thanks. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Hello Tankers,
No new features should be in effect as of tonight. We're investigating why new icons were made available and there is a chance that the menu will revert to the 7.5 version until those new features are implemented.
While an experimental period of tank locking is possible in the future, it should not be active tonight. The sabotage, intel and counter intel buttons are semi self explanatory buttons while the exact mechanics are not available yet. The training button refers to training your "Spies" for those features.
So - there shouldn't be any surprises tonight.

* I will add this since I stated it in the Gameplay section:
The new Clan Wars features will be put into effect in coming updates. There are many variables that influence exactly when, so I couldn't give you an exact date. Variables such as moving CW to the North American map, the possibility of a tank locking experiment, and other fairly large game changers. But we'll be sure to give lots of advance notice before any changes take place.

GeneralDirection:
There are 15 people on the enemy team. Just because you think it's the T-50-2 spotting you, doesn't mean it actually is.

Mugsy_: Hello,
You'll be glad to know that in the future platoons will be able to select their game modes. I appreciate your continued patience while we continue to improve and refine our features. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Hey Squeaky, great suggestion. Glad to hear the desires and ideas of players making it into the game. Great job. ~ Mugsy_

GeneralDirection:
What graphics setting did you run on pre-patch, and which do you run on now?

Vallter: As it was mentioned, voice-over is not included. Please, press 'CC' to enable subtitles.

Vallter: Don't you know what happened with your camouflage patterns? Are you interested in where 'T' button gun? All these and many more questions are covered by this video. Check it out!

krazyone: Wow i really like that idea. It would be really cool to have some decals that would only be unlocked by tier, medals and other things. Thanks for sharing the idea

Vallter: You were interested, why have Wargaming implemented new physics? What will they work on after 8.0? Check out the video and find the answers!

Mugsy_: Hello everyone,
As some have said you have a lot of control over the graphics. You can turn down the gamma, the graphics can be switched to standard, and experimenting with your other settings will help you find a look that most pleases you. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Hey everyone,
The tech tree was changed to a horizontal layout to accommodate future expansions. Simply, we needed more space. This new layout affords us that space. I understand many prefer things as they were. I can only hope that as we progress forward and develop it we'll improve it with your continued feedback and find a happy medium between form and function.

Mugsy_: Hello everyone,
I know this change will take some time to adjust to but in the long term interest of growing our tech tree we needed more space and this layout best afforded us that space.
Simple as that. Needed more space. We didn't ignore that many folks didn't like it. But we determined it was a necessary compromise.
Sorry, I hope you can get used to it or find a mod to revert.

Mugsy_: I believe it doesn't work if you are in platoons. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Yes, we noticed this as well. Thanks for the feedback. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Hey guys, You don't have to bump the thread anymore. For your part, mission accomplished. I can't say for sure it will be implemented, but it has been brought into our development dialog. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Hello everyone,
I understand the camo changes and refunds are complicated and frustrating, my sincere advice is before you get too upset just submit a support ticket. If you want answers, corrections, apologies - submit a support ticket. Today was a big day with a lot of changes, but I believe we're very fair at Wargaming and we'll take care of any problems this change created. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Suggestion noted. Thank you sir. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Also you can tweak the post processing (turn it to low or off) and tinker with the gamma until you find something you enjoy. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Now that 8.0 has launched I expect we'll be improving the Clan UI incrementally, I am interested in hearing specific feedback from everyone as each project emerges. I'll probably be creating threads in the Ultimate Conquest board asking for notes on specific ideas - so keep your eyes peeled. That being said, a message of the day for clans has been discussed many times and should be an achievable feature. I dont imagine we'll ever create a news or information windows that interferes with a players ability to use their garage or join battles though.
In the meantime, there are many metagame solutions to these problems of communication. Some clans have facebook pages, others use TeamSpeak and Skype channels, still others have their own websites and forums.

Mugsy_: I believe if you switch graphics from improved to standard it turns down the bloom. ~ Mugsy_

Captain_Judo: love this idea

Captain_Judo: Not to worry. We base on content and nothing else.

Mugsy_: A previous suggestion was for a Clan "Message of the Day" window either on the launcher or in the garage. Would this satisfy the need you are expressing? ~ Mugsy_
* exactly Hartung

Mugsy_: Hey Akivall, suggestion noted sir. Thank you. ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: you should have a clan chat channel at the bottom of your garage

GeneralDirection:
Physics and shell normalization changes are both going to impact the way certain vehicles are played.

GeneralDirection: This will be changed with the next update. There was not enough time to put together the lists for each client localization. EU is in the same boat here; right now the ordering is the same for all regions.

Agrona: Welcome welcome! Glad to have you on the team Captain_Judo!

Mugsy_: Feedback noted. Thanks everyone! ~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: I believe currently we use "Let's Battle" for Wargaming and "Roll Out" for World of Tanks
~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_: Hey everyone,
Lots of great suggestions here to breathe new life into TCs.
~ Mugsy_

Mugsy_:
My advice with all conflict either in game or on the forums is let the moderation handle it for you. It is difficult to fight the natural response to retaliate but it will serve you best to stay mellow, and if people are harassing you in game submit a support ticket with a replay attached. Let us handle unpleasant problems for you.

Captain_Judo: A better enthusiast than active participant how I came across it as my game tag, specifically for WoT, is a longer story

lord_farquad: Unfortunately there have been some technical issues with the tools required to file those requests. I will get your gold to you as soon as those have been resolved. Sorry for the delay.

lord_farquad: Generally within 48 hours. However this week there have been some technical issues. As a general principle, when a tournament is marked as "finished" then the gold request has been filled. That's how I make sure I get everyone, and it helps players know as well. That's why you'll notice there are quite a few not completed from the past week (technical issues). As soon as I am able however I will complete all of them. Sorry for the wait.
