Wait wait wait… hold on a minute.
You know Sony or even Nintendo could also raise money for Crytek, right? Why do you assume that the 2 things are connected to each other? I mean… other then that. Heck, even a bunch of kickstarter back-ups could explain it!

PS: Maybe the spanish inquisition founded Crytek. ;)

In 2009 Koch media (DS parent) had 330 million revenue. WG had 210 million in 2012.
Since 2009 Koch media group grown quite a bit (bough a lot of new IP’s), and their revenue is much, much higher.

Now make some simple math, what does it mean if in 2009 Koch media was much bigger than WG was in 2012? Don’t you think that now in 2014 Koch media has at least twice (twice is worst case scenario) the money 2014 WG has?

So yeah, next time please inform yourself…just a tiny bit…

Oh, also Koch media IS the biggest European publisher. Wargaming is also in EU right?

But if tier spread is reduced, we’re going to see some MAJOR nerfs to tanks.

Honestly, there’s no issue with the spread as it is, all tanks have their weaknesses, and being lower tier means you end up having to learn them, instead of just “point and click” that being top tier generally is.

So, according to you, WG does not have enough money?

What about WG sending the black helicopters, I MEAN, buying that whole bank in Cyprus?

Is freaking Deep Silver bigger than the Cyprus bank? I don’t think so.

If not, let SerB send in the black helicopters…

No, there should be. At least 2 versions where the tanks, gold and exp are shared. Physics can even be different for 2 different servers.

Physics CAN be the same, but then Crytek looks awesome and has terrible bigworld physics… NO!

2 different servers with shared tanks, exp, creds, gold, etc would be fine.

Hmmm, maybe WoT CAN be better than War Thunder. xD

But it shouldn’t become the only WoT. It should be the WoT 2.0 running next to the current one which will share your stats.

Now we can expect the new Homefront to be on BigWorld.

DS has more than enough money to publish the game themselves. They could even buy WG if they really want to…
Also DS is and it will always be willing to invest,even in dying franchises/gamedevs (see stalker series, see metro series)

We will see Homefront released no matter what, DeepSilver will make sure of that.
