Q&A – 29th December 2015

Huge thanks to Vladimir for translating.

– Q: is the perk rebalance planned for 2016? A: I cannot say; again – there will be no information on dates and such, everything is ASAP;

– Q: it’s not a secret anymore that some important players were invited to Minsk recently and one of them made a video, where he said: “SerB; Storm, Pankov, Makarov and Kisliy will return to WoT development.” which position will you (Storm) take? A: yeah, watch more crap… how can I return to the workplace i’m already at?

– Q: i have a suggestion: you open a subforum “Maps” and look at which map has the most comments, and start working on that one, instead of using your internal statistics and heatmaps. A: yeah, very funny, maybe we’ll do the same with tanks?

– Q: what about T95E6, when will it be buffed? A: no info yet;

– Q: which changes happened to the plans of the devs after the rubicon patch? A: i can’t say anything yet;

– Q: switching to a platoon member and can’t see his damaged modules, but his engine was hit… bug or feature? A: bug 🙁

– Q: i wish you, and Vader (map designer), and all the people who are responsible for the current state of the game to be fired in the new year of 2016! happy new year! A: sorry, won’t be able to please you with that;

– Q: are there any obj. 268 rebalance plans? A: most certainly not; (Seb: TAP question for the win)

– Q: arty rebalance? A: still ASAP;

– Q: what’s that about the cancellation of the Pz 58 marathon? A: sorry, not my department, can’t say anything;

– Q: what about 50×50 battles? A: NDA (non disclosure)

– Q: i’m tired of freezes, what’s up with them? A: actively working on it;

– Q: won’t you fix the difference of penetration values of the M41 on the M48A1, T95E2 and 59-Patton? or are you thinking about it? A: yes, we are;

– Q: blocked damage is counted already, why not add it to the earned XP after multiplying with some factor? A: to balance the current XP gain, other factors would have to be nerfed, it’s not that easy;

– Q: when will the fps drops on spotting be fixed, it’s in the works for 2 patches already? A: yes, yes, it’s being worked on;

– Q: is the JgPz E50 news a fake? A: yes;

– Q: will the new engine have a new name or still be labeled “Bigworld”? and could you say when the release will be in general (soon™ or ASAP)? A: i can’t say anything yet;

– Q: i remember that there was a “fully updated client” promised until the end of 2015, what about this? A: “i hope we can release it” is not a promise;
