If what you are saying is true then it makes the fact that they earn $400M a year more impressive.

I’ve once seen some pretty interesting tables. Can’t remember where, tho. Some russian site I think. Got there through WoT-Forum. Someone linked it there. They pointed out that way more than 50% of the registered accs are dead accounts, if I remember correctly. And from the remaining accounts a certain portion are multi-accounts. And then again from these real accounts that are left, a big bunch consists of transit-players that just started to play and have less than 1-2k battles. Major part of them is gone again soon, adding their accs to the dead-acc-scale, being replaced by new transit players. Only a vanishingly small amount of players are true, active, long-term players. Let it be around 1% (on ALL servers, worldwide). If you made more than 10k battles in this game, you’re already a living fossil!

So, yea … WG is always bragging with this – “100 Million players!!!111!” whereas it’s not a big secret that this is a castle in the air. There are by far no 100 Million active (!) players.

Permaban on WoT Forums with morons like you there and power tripping assholes like BBV and iscending moderating it is a badge of honor.

You get motion sickness from being a gunner on a tank as well. Most people are able to acclimatise after a few weeks tho

- Occulus Rift support for WoT? “Not anytime soon, 50 percent of the test group got motion sickness”

Of course, you get motion sickness from driving a tank that only your eyes. It would be great if there’s a new way/ a true VR (I mean, you don’t need to have a controller and you can feel the environment. Like the anime “Sword Art Online” or “Accel World”.) that you won’t get a motion sickness.

Worth menitoning the Yager dev team is making Dreadnought game, which seems to basically be WoT(WoWs?) with spaceships.

With the first one you kinda had to use sniper zoom on anything further away to tell what kind of tank it is.

Still, of al the games I tried with Rift DK1, WoT was pretty much the least problemic in terms of motion sickness.

Then again WG might be trying out something like camera positioning similiar to the one in realistic WT battles, with mouse only moving the gun and turret (at least that’s how I’d do it). Then you’d probably have to actually look around with your head (not really much point in that with current 3rd person cam) and… if they’re using DK1 I’m sure some’d get motion sickness.
