Devs, how about this?
Hirumaru, on Sep 17 2012 - 04:23, said: My question regarding Clan Wars and balance metrics:
Do you track usage and stats for tanks used in Clan Wars? If so, how does tank usage and how do all of their respective win rates, etc. compare to their stats compare to random battles?
One can argue that the ultimate argument for balance is the usefulness of a tank in Clan Wars. That is, if it isn't used in Clan Wars, it isn't balanced well enough. Even with the number of maps and the multitude of clans out there, you rarely see certain vehicles even after hundreds of battles. Even so, they rarely prevail.
How do clan wars stats compare to the random battle stats?

While you're nerfing the T110E4 significantly to drop its win rate by about the same amount the JgPzE100 should be buffed (3~4%) to reach 268 levels, then why is there such a massive disparity between the changes being made to these tanks?

will we ever see such an option of a gun on a higher tier?
ulrikov, on Sep 18 2012 - 00:22, said: Vallter, an honest question - how do you usually play the E-100? Do you intend on using HE on it 90% of the time or do you use gold rounds for it? Is it basically a poor imitation of an HP sponge?

Sorry for be insistent

WarStore, on Sep 18 2012 - 08:27, said: Dear devs,
final stage of public test for v.8.0 is near, and we did not hear anything about meaningful buffs for Jpz-E100.
The patch was once again tested with lots of gold flying around.
-How did the JpzE100 perform during tests? How would you compare this test to 7.5 test #1? Remember that during 7.5 test#1, devs considered it to be overperforming, nerfed the hell out of it, and you know well the results after the patch went live.
-Do you think those small "buffs" will get this tank out of the bottom?
-Can we expect some changes for the most unreliable gun in the game to reach the final release of the patch? And if not, how much longer should we wait for the real buffs, or should I just sell it?

Vallter: Only as separate modifications of the vehicles. This means as
separate vehicles. But still, it's only a probability.
Movodor, on Sep 16 2012 - 00:27, said: Will transfers from the SEA server to NA ever be considered? My experience on the SEA server may be the thing that finally kills my interest in Tanks.
Vallter: Not in the nearest future.

Vallter: You still receive premium bonus during such events. Due to many
questions/complaints of this nature, since 8.0 we will display the
bonus of PA in after battle statistics and also give for comparison
numbers you would earn without PA.

Vallter: Everythinng depends on your feedback. More requests to release a
specific guide, more possibilities to receive it sooner
Zergling, on Sep 16 2012 - 12:04, said: When will SPGs be removed from the game?
Vallter: It will never be considered.
Lert, on Sep 16 2012 - 16:06, said: Never.

Vallter: Probably in the future, but no guearantees.

Even with the number of maps and the multitude of clans out there, you rarely see certain vehicles even after hundreds of battles. Even so, they rarely prevail.

Vallter: We track vehicles use on global map and plan different CW features
basing on these statistics. We do not balance tanks basing on this
data.

Vallter: Tank Locking won't be implemented on NA according to the current
feedback from clans

Vallter: This is not a final change, so I would like to suggest you watining
till 8.0 release notes
Zamolxet, on Sep 17 2012 - 20:56, said: Does WG plan to add historical maps?Like one under the eiffel tower,one in the red quare,one in tranilvanya or one at the brandenbourg gate?
Vallter: Though normally inspirated by actually existed maps, we try not to
copy their locations exactly. So I doubt that such maps will enter
the game anytime soon.

Vallter: Unfortunately, such cannos would be barely playable on high Tiers,
so we won't add them.

Vallter: I'm not, but the person who is responsible for balancing plays at
least 1-2 battles a day. And he uses 85% of credit ammo in the load
out.
ArtV, on Sep 18 2012 - 02:52, said: Please can you remove assault on Prokhorovka now?
Vallter: No, we do not plan to remove it, but you will be able to remove the
mod in 8.0. Update will be released soon and all our forces are
dedicated to polish it before release, thus no hotfis possible even
if we would like to remove the map
martingalindo, on Sep 18 2012 - 05:03, said: Vallter please can you give the angles please?
Sorry for be insistent
Vallter: No, unfortunately not. There are historically accurate. I would
suggest to search a historical blue print with angle mentioned
there.

Vallter: 1)It's hard to say, because this test statistics were a mess due to
new physics and other additions in 8.0. We will monitor the vehicle
closely on the retail server after the 8.0 is released
2)They will make it perform better

Vallter: There are some actions that will be taken with 8.0, which will
reduce abnormal amount of Artillery. If this not helps, a specific
limitation in MM will be added.
