Escort mode was abandoned ages ago. WG decided it was too hard for WoT pubbies to grok.

You misunderstand. IRL, the 4502B was similar in terms of armour, etc to the 4502A. It’s current status as a heavily armoured behemoth only exists for game balance.

Very sad to hear that Dragon Ridge was most likely scrapped. I liked this one so much! I know many people disagree, the best would be a map-disable option anyway.

“7. Is it possible in BigWorld or Havok to create hitbox (collision model) changes during battle: for example, you shoot a tank in spaced armor, spaced armor is torn away and is no longer part of the hitbox?

Yes, this will be implemented (Storm)”

Well this will put the last nail in the coffin of SuperPershing, an already crap tank, they will make bigger crap out of it.

“We don’t plan to implement player-controlled vehicles with wheels ”

The interesting part here is “player-controlled”.

Speculation: armored cars as part of convoys for the still-in-development Escort gameplay mode?

“the overly buffed VK4502B”

Overly buffed?! ROFLMAO. Somebody’s never driven an Ausf B. It’s the worst of the tier 9 heavies by a long, long way.

Interesting on the policy on Crew changes. Especially considering the shit-storm that developed from the switch to the MT-25 from the T-50-2. Shame, though, since I’d love the extra loader requirement to be dropped so I’m not swapping them back and forth in my SU-122-44.

Would be painful, though, adding a 4th crew member to the Lorraine grind (13 90 and Bat are 3 only).
