Apparently there will be an Ultimate Factory (National Geographic channel) show on Wargaming. Overlord posted airing times for each region.

- flower camo is not planned
- apparently, there is a general change planned for the Sixth Sense, camouflage and spotting mechanism, everythign will come at once
- there is a horizontal limit on the distance a shell flies (700m, after which it disappears), but there is no limit apparently on the vertical scale, so a shell can fly 10km up
- HEAT shells will be further detonated by destructable objects, only AP and subcaliber shells will penetrate them
- it’s possible there will be settings presets for the future in WoT client (“for headphones”, “for making video” etc.), these presets apparently won’t be stored server-side
- WoWp release was “normal”
- there will be a big WoWp optimization patch in December
- camo crew perk (SS: or any perk) has no influence on tank MM weight
- it’s possible there will be unique camos given out for finishing “quests” (tough missions)

  1. “apparently, there is a general change planned for the Sixth Sense, camouflage and spotting mechanism, everything will come at once”

    That sounds very interesting, makes you wonder if it’ll be a big spotting/camo change, or just a little tweaking.

    My memory ain’t that good anymore… wasn’t there something planned about camo/spotting changes about a year ago?
    The whole thing that was supposed to come with the re-balancing of being invisible while shooting, etc?

  2. “- flower camo is not planned!”

    SerB doesnt like hippies it seems – evil communist bastard :-(

      • Common misconception, they are not, in fact, original hippies and Peace movement was made by teens from middle-class families, the movement lost it’s impetus once they run out of money and decide to go back home.

        Although there probably were commies among hippies they weren’t as significant to have major influence. You should also remember that many anarchists have similar ideas to Communists and hippies, like living in communes which is often used to label any group as communist.

        • “hippie”ism and communism (at least in the form of the eastern block) dont match for sure.

          Communism like it was talked about in the 19th century or in the western parts of europe in early 20th century is/was a totally different thing when compared with the BS that happend in russia, eastern europe and parts of asia.

  3. I forget if more information on this was posted, but was the entire “shots going through destructible objects” patch told to be imminent (8.10 or 9.0), or is it a soon(tm) project?

  4. I would like to see them implement real life camos featured in museums. I got a picture of myself on top of MVTF’s Panther, and would absolutely buy that paint job! Maybe even make some “achievements” along the lines of what museums players have been to? Would that help increase visitors to museums? Maybe, maybe not, but it can’t hurt.

  5. You can kinda do “presets” at the moment, though it’s a little fiddly – in the appdata/roaming/wargaming.net folder, where the preference file lives, I have zip files containing all the different setups I need, so I can just drag and drop and change a whole raft of settings at once. Be nice to have the same functionality available from inside the client, though won’t stop me needing to do it the old way, given that’s also how one gets older replays to work without being bugged out.
