Can someone explain why the <> is before the <>.
It was produced a year later then the Ferdinand.


Quote And why is the <> referred as heavy s-p attillery, as far as I know its a tank destroyer (PaK43)


Quote I don't know what it is with me and the "Maus", I am not so attracted to it. I do prefer the "Jagdtiger" instead.

I don't know much about tanks, but as far as I know, the Merkava IV is one heck of a tank. It's shells are awesome too, and it has a self-defense system (If you wonder how I know all that - Future weapons FTW )

Axelius, on 25 February 2010 - 06:07 PM, said: Neat, I'm a bit saddened that I can't go from the 38(t) to the Tiger tree, but I can do with the Pz. III. Also a bit saddened that I'll have to start a whole new tree to get my StuG, but since I don't plan to go higher than Tiger I in heavies I guess I can live with it.
What I feel is lacking are the Vk 4501 (P), the Porsche prototype for the Tiger, and the Sturer Emil, the Vk 3001 (H) with a PaK 43 on it. Also Panzerwerfer, but since we're not seeing rocket artillery yet (which also isn't that effective against tanks) I'm not complaining.

m4rek, on 25 February 2010 - 03:57 AM, said: Speaking of firing lasers, if shells have a little travel time then it would follow that they are created as a physics projectile and not as a ray weapon. Thus, my question is, will shells arc when we fire them, and will the player have to adjust for this or will the game automatically adjust our elevation depending on the range we're targeting?

How many units can a single player choose from?
In one game pick my fav. light tank, in other my fav. medium tank and in third game, my fav heavy tank? and of course my fav. artillery cannon.
In one game you can only play one unit but how many different units can we choose from? Are there like profiles...

Okay not the railguns guns obviously(?), but just about those HUGE mobile artillery pieces they made or are you keeping things a reasonable below 200mm cap?

m4rek, on 25 February 2010 - 04:16 AM, said: I'd imagine that if a clan wishes to dispute a territory, they would have to announce their attack before the combat period of that territory zone. I'd also imagine it would have to be done a day ahead.


Quote On a side note, will it be possible to spectate a game from the very start and/or after it has begun without taking part in it at all, or will we only be able to spectate if we've taken part and have been destroyed. And... if we have been destroyed, please make it so we can access the lobby (or whatever you wanna call it - the place where we can join a new game from) without leaving the game we're spectating?


Quote This is less relevant if you can rejoin a game as a spectator, but I suspect people joining a game after starting could lag it a bit and it may not be a viable option as a result.

and another question, if a clan protects its trritory vs a few other clans (each time it plays against one) can players from the defending clan that were destroyed when fighting vs clan A respawn in the battle vs clan B?

On topic though, from what I gather, the range of some of the artillery pieces would actually exceed the map sizes you've quoted so far. With the additional optimisation work that you're conducting at the moment, would it be possible to get some larger maps? If you feel that this would cause problems for users with low-end computers, it could be a selectable option on setting the room, and it would default to the smaller maps size available and then the map size would be displayed for people wishing to join and a warning if their system could have problems with it.
