Russian Q&A with developers from WG, done by EU player Silentstalker, on his blog "For the Record"


- both the L7 gun and the engine on Type 61 tier 9 Japanese MT are historical according to SerB
- regular Type 98 Ke-Ni in game will have Hara suspension (SS: Christie suspension “Otsu†version will possibly be a premium tank)
- Japanese heavy branch is being developed
- according to developers, radio mechanism is working fine and its impact on gameplay is sufficient, especially on low and mid tiers
- too early to evaluate the new 8.9 TD statistics

“The analysis of new vehicles doesn’t begin immediately – not by a longshot. Of course, it is constantly monitored and analyzed, but when it comes to new vehicles, unlocked in the beginning by experienced or active players, of course their stats go up and down. And when finally the majority of players gets used to the vehicle, other players develop tactics against this vehicle and when it is played by all who wanted to unlock it and not only those who succeeded, it is then when we start considering the statistics valid and make decisionsâ€


- all TD’s have an abitrary camo bonus, but WT E-100 has a really poor camo in general, because it’s too big
- the fact some maps act differently balance-wise, when you use different tech on them are a feature of the game and this is considered normal by the developers
- Object 430 will appear in 8.10
- Lowe weight (and other data) is based on this table from Panzer Tracts (model W1662)
- Storm on “Chinese leak†(SS: you know, that garbage with “IS-7 will be getting a gun swap, currently it has the S-70; in 9.0, it will have the S-70A †and so on): “Crap to the God of Crap! You probably believe fortune tellers too…†– so, once again, it is CRAP.
- new maps based on historical locations are being developed: Kharkov, Minsk, Königsberg
- the power of the engine is always constant in WoT (revving has no effect)
- some players keep complaining about Lowe weight being too high: Storm states there are no reasons not to trust Jentz and Doyle and Panzer Tracts and there are no other data about it
- according to Evilly, STB-1 tier 10 Japanese MT will have a good depression, “almost like Patton†(SS: -6)

Storm answers on questions under the “patchnotes†post:

- the new Japanese map will not be like Sacred Valley, it’s rather flat – half of it are fields, half is the village, there will be mountains around the edges
- according to Storm, it’s pointless to save video and audio settings on server
- it’s not possible to display post-battle statistics when your client crashes before the battle is over
- Object 140 as a whole will not be rebalanced
- KV-1S will not be split in two tanks before the model rework stage is reached (SS: that means at some point next year)
- tomorrow, the supertest final stage for 8.10 starts (8.10 common test will NOT come this week)
- Storm confirms that in 8.10 the Japanese tanks will be green, not brown
- Northwest map has some imbalance between bases, but a small one (won’t be rebalanced for now)
- whether SU-76i and Ke-Ni Otsu will be premium (or gift/award) tanks was not yet decided
- apparently, SU-85i was also retested lately to make it ready for release
- the motion blur effect mentioned in patchnotes will be possible to switch off
- serverside replays will be implemented (when it’s done it’s done)
- no client optimization is planned for 8.10
- it’s possible to implement “last replay for each tank†instead of “last replay from game played†saving too, but so far there have been no requests for that
- about 30 interface issues for Team Battles were fixed in 8.10
- apparently, the developers wanted to call the “Hidden Village†map “Ninja village†at first
- according to Veider, there are plans to somehow limit the amount of TD’s in tier 10 battles, Storm however adds statistics for battletiers 10, 11 and 12 (in percent) and adds he doesn’t think there are too many tier 10 TD’s:

Battletier 10 (percent):
LТ = 7,11
MТ = 21,97
HТ = 40,07
АRТ = 7,99
TD = 22,87

Battletier 11 (percent):
LТ = 7,75
MТ = 24,41
HТ = 34,90
АRТ = 9,31
TD = 23,62

Battletier 12 (percent):
LТ = 5,26
MТ = 22,64
HТ = 35,17
АRТ = 12,02
TD = 24,91

- devs didn’t manage to fix the bug where WT E-100 “turret†gets damaged and is impossible to repair
- events and discounts will be implemented into the Mission window as a part of it
- Lowe increased ammo count doesn’t mean the ammo rack module got bigger
- premium Soviet MT has not been fixed yet
- full remodelling of non-combat interface will come in distant future

 

Well, i never thought they would nerf the IS7

 

Oh man, thought it was free shipping on tanks, lol

 

NA Server – KV-220 on sale

the mysterious tank for Monday to be sold on US server turns out to be KV-220.KV-220 | Tankopedia | World of Tanks
KV-220 was a betatest Soviet tank (sort of underpowered, quite rare).

So far, this offer is US server only

 

EU server will have KV-220 on sale too

Source: EU forums

Just a quick update:
Ectar posted Kv220 to be in gift shop - General Discussion - World of Tanks official forum
that EU server will also have the KV-220.

 

Premium Shop: Special Collector’s Edition

The year 2013 is almost at the finish line. To honour its passing and welcome the New Year, we have prepared a lot of special offers for you to enjoy throughout December! Without further ado, let’s kick off with the first deals!

The list opens with an offer you simply cannot miss – the Collector’s Delight package! Why is it so special? Because this package contains a unique Premium tank which is rarely (if ever) seen on the EU battlefields – the Tier V Soviet heavy tank, KV-220! Originating as a gift tank on the RU server, the KV-220 made almost no appearances on other servers, which naturally makes it a very rare and valuable addition to anyone’s tank collection! If you go for this package, then besides this heavy metal gem you will also get a garage slot, a month of premium account and an impressive 10,500 Gold! Grab it while it lasts!

The goodness doesn’t end here, though – if you’re a tank collector, you will be thrilled to know that there will be two more packages containing rare tanks to choose from! The first one is the Gift from America package; it contains 15,000 Gold and a free bonus consisting of the premium Tier III Soviet light tank, M3 Light, and a garage slot! This vehicle was only available as a reward for completing the old tutorial. If you didn’t have a chance to get hold of it, you can get it now!

The other collector’s package is the Svyatogor's Legend. This offer contains the well regarded Tier VIII Soviet heavy tank, KV-5, a garage slot and 3,000 gold. If you’re into vehicles capable of taking a lot of punishment, you won’t be disappointed!

In addition to these offers we will also have special packages focusing solely on resources. The most prominent of these is the Huge Holiday Hamper, containing an astonishing 12,000 gold and 12,000,000 credits! This is more than enough to get you a couple of end-game vehicles and still leave some spare change for parts and ammunition! Please note that the credit conversion is much more profitable in this package with a conversion rate of 666 credits for every 1 gold, instead of 400 credits for every 1 gold!

Last but not least is the well-known Offer of the Month, containing nothing short of the essentials to make December an easy ride. As always, the package comes with an additional 100,000 credits completely free.

Here’s a handy summary table. These offers are available from 29th November 06:10 until 6th December 06:00 CET (GMT +1).

Premium Account
A premium account allows you to earn more credits and experience per battle so that you can progress more quickly in the game. All the information about the advantages of a premium account can be found in our guide.

KV-220
The KV-220 is a premium Tier V Soviet heavy tank. It is a very durable vehicle. Combining the sturdy KV-3 hull with a big pool of Hit Points, the KV 220 excels at playing the role of a shield and damage-sponge for the team. If you like to be the one slowly but steadily pushing the frontline forwards and breaking the enemy defences, this vehicle will not disappoint you!

M3 Light
The M3 Light is a very well-rounded and versatile light tank. It has relatively good armour, a decent gun and it can accelerate quite effectively. As a result, this little vehicle can fill a variety of roles on the battlefield and switch between them easily when necessary. If you like the jack-of-all-trades tanks, you will love this one!

KV-5
The KV-5 is a Tier VIII heavy tank, and as with all of the KV series it is a member of the USSR nation in World of Tanks. It is a heavily armoured vehicle with a decent gun. Whilst it is unlikely win any speed races, it is quite easy to remain the last tank standing on a battlefield. If you are fan of ramming techniques then this beast should go straight to your garage!


That’s not all! In the Premium Shop there are a lot of permanent packages, as well as some exclusive packages available until the release of version 8.10. They feature, among others, the first Japanese Premium tank!

WoW this two looks interesting

 

Nice armor but shity gun and that speed (WoW F1 ;D)

 

Tankers!

Now that all the train conductors have been scared off the continent, we had some time to look around. We found some big, shiny, beautiful piles of Gold! But such treasure is hard to keep secret, and everyone will be rushing in to grab what they can before the mines run dry. Don't worry, though – in time, we're sure to find another deposit...

This is the next stage of the Clan Wars Second Campaign: "Gold Rush." Tiers are wide open (I - X), and only tank locking will be disabled for Stage III.

Stage III Details

At the beginning of Stage III, several groups of provinces will become Goldfields. These groups of provinces will always have a central province, the Pot of Gold () which will become a landing zone on the first and third day when the Pot of Gold appears. Each Pot of Gold will be surrounded with Goldmines (). Each Goldmine provides 42 Victory Points each turn. The Pot of Gold does not earn any Victory Points on its own instead owning a central province, and alongside the a Goldmine provides a 4x multiplier for Victory Point earnings from each Goldmine () owned in that area. After a four days, the Pot of Gold and their Goldmines will become exhausted, but another Goldfield will be discovered somewhere else on the map.

World Redivision: Stage III will start in World Redivision mode again; however, there will not be a wipe. Clans that earned their provinces during Stage II will stay on the map, but they have the option of removing themselves from the map before the stage begins with the "Exit Map" button. Please keep in mind that in World Redivision mode, draws in the Battle with Owner go to the attacker, rather than defender. Provinces will also be limited to 32 applicants during World Redivision, and will revert to 64 during normal Stage III rules. Please, additionally note that no cooldowns will be reset for both chips and HQ.

How do these provinces appear on the Game Map?

For further clarification, a Goldfield is a group of Goldmine provinces with a Pot of Gold province in its center somewhere on the Game Map. Goldmines are all the provinces that surround the Pot of Gold which is the central province of a Goldfield. Only the Goldmines provide Victory Points. The Pot of Gold province does not, but it does bring a multiplier coefficient for Clans that own at least 1 Goldmine province in that area. The Goldfield exists for 4 days, and the Pot of Gold itself becomes a Landing Zone on days 1 and 3 of the existence of a Goldfield.

"Fame" is your individual rating for your participation in the Second Campaign. Fame is earned from battles on the Campaign Clan Wars map, and players who earn the biggest amount of Fame in Clan Wars battles will receive a unique tank. The amount of Fame you can earn will vary based upon your experience earned in battle, the Campaign Stage, whether a province is rioting, and if you accomplish any secondary objectives. Just like Victory points in Stage III, Fame Points cannot be lost!

You will be able to track how your Fame Points stack up at the Alley of Fame!
