Giza, on 23 February 2010 - 11:24 AM, said: Has some more questions Jeremy.
1. When upgrading your tank, is there some kind of limit to the points or is it just max all areas like firepower, armor, threads, radio etc.
2. Is there a limit to the points you can put in a tank. Let us say you have 5 upgrades as max for a light tank or do you keep on getting more and more points until all areas are maxed out?
What I am asking is, do you have to choose if you prefer speed over firepower or armor over speed?

Jeremy Taylor: You can choose between the points you want to upgrade, exact points
that fit your playing style most. Want to help your team as a scout
or just want to make your vehicle faster - upgrade your track. If
you find your firepower not good enough change your gun for
something more destructive first (e.g. from Flak30 L/115 to Flak38
L/112 when playing PZ.II). If you have enough credits for
increasing both speed and firepower - please upgrade both gun and
track. There's a certain set of upgrades for each functional
element.

vehicle at 3D in your hangar when it is purchased. You can have a
good look at our collection of renders that will be widening
gradually http://worldoftanks.com/gallery/art/1.
You will also be able to see your primary light tanks in 3D as they appear at your hangar automatically. Then, we will be providing you with tons of screenshots, ingame video and other useful information that will give a clear understanding of World of Tanks fighting vehicles.

day? for how long do you suspect? 2-3 hours? will there be an
attack limit, or limit on how many zones you can conqour a day?Jeremy Taylor: It will depend on the situation on the global map. Two individual
clans (A and B ) may have two battles (offensive and defense) with
each other and not more on the everyday basis. If you have the
conflict with the clan C - you start fighting with this clan.
Problems with clan D? Challenge them. And so on... The more clans
we'll have, the more conflicts will happen during the war each day,
the more challenges you will have to face each day. War is war, so
there will be no dearth of conflicts and politics. The more
detailed information will be revealed a bit later.
Most comfortable time is the evening regarding the time zone of contestable territory. If there's a fight for Vladivostok, the battle will be conducted in the evening in accordance with Vladivostok time zone. If there's a fight for, say, Wyoming the battle will be conducted in the evening in accordance with Wyoming time zone.

Jeremy Taylor: My bad, I expressed my idea not to clearly . I just pulled out a small final
part of the chain. For instance, to get VK3001H you have to start
with Leichtraktor (which looks like a dwarf comparing to a giant
like Tiger), then go to PZ.I, PZ.II or PZ.35(t.). From PZ.II you're
going directly to PZ.III, then PZ.III (A), and finally to PZ.IV.
After that you have to choose between two "paths": Leopard or
VK3001H... Oh gosh, it looks like I've gone too far . Don't make me expose this
information beforehand We're planning to publish the tree
of German tanks tomorrow.

Jeremy Taylor: We are planning to hold clan war battles in the evening time
regarding the time zone of the attacked territory. Each territory
has its real prototype on the world's map. The evening is believed
to be the most comfortable time for that purpose. For instance, if
there's a fight for, say, Berlin the battle will be conducted in
the evening regarding Berlin time zone.

Jeremy Taylor: This is also a very correct statement. But we want to make World of
Tanks closed beta testing both efficient and fun. That's why we
will have no limit of testers for beta. Moreover, big total number
of testers automatically increases the number of experienced
testers in it.

Jeremy Taylor: Everyone chooses his own tactics when operating the artillery. The
tactics you've outlined are very common too. However, taking out
scouts demands more skills than finishing the damaged tank during
its repair period - scouts are much faster than heavier tanks and
soooo annoying .
We didn't introduce big antennas; we see no need in them especially if regarding the gameplay.

same: the earlier you will send your application the earlier you

Application form will be published on our website when the beta is
officially announced.

factors we follow during the development process. We think that
Armoured Recovery Vehicles would hurt the dynamic gameplay of World

the beta, statistically improving the chances of finding a given

concerns camos you will have to select from the list of the
official camos. Historical accuracy is very important in our game

see the target-area i can reach from min. to max. ?
i would love to need data from teammates, that are at the frontline, so that would push teamplay a little?

Jeremy Taylor: Of course; light high-speed tanks are the best helpers for that
purpose. You'll see the enemy on your mini map as soon as it is
captured by the scout's radio or captured by you own radio
depending on how close the enemy moved to the rear and depending on
your radio characteristics.

Jeremy Taylor: World of Tanks has no dividing by countries concerning teams or
clans. Each team or clan may have Soviet, German, US or fighting
vehicles from other countries in it. Still however you may form the
clan of only Soviet, US or German fighting vehicles if you're
willing to.

unanswered.maybe i wasn't so specific.
when the tank moves around you can see the wheels/tracks moving indipendently up and down...
also i had some other questions. they were about how does the system works for howitzers. if you have the time read the post. if you don't its ok i'll see it when it will be ready

Jeremy Taylor: - We are working on making the track's motion as close to the
reality as possible.
- I'll start the individual thread dedicated to the artillery in World of Tanks where you can ask any question you find appropriate.

explosion lead to shell holes... Is that what you meant?

radio view it will we indicated on your mini map. That's is why
scouts are usually the best helpers for artillery.

Jeremy Taylor: - Not in 100% simulator style. We are making the MMO action.
Windage calculatings and the corresponding arrangements will hurt
the gameplay and fun of the game.
- Of course. We already have different types of locations and will add more.
- Buildings are destructible in our game. But you will not be able to turn the building completely into ruins (World of Tanks is MMO, complete destruction is tooooooooo excessive from technology standpoint). Trees are already knocked down, the same will soon concern hences.
