KVs can be one shotted by my Hummel, the Prototypes cant :O

[Mysthalin]

It's one of those situations where the prototypes are likely better than their end results lolz.

Interesting, a lot more races will be in the game...

The closed beta is actually going on already started from July 8th. First of all the players will get fantastic action team-based gameplay. In the closed beta we are going to introduce 3 tank nations: German and the Soviet Union will be available right away, afterwards the third American line will follow.

Each nation will represent about 40 tank models, all detailed with historical accuracy; 7 unique maps, among which there are open field locations and urban maps; detailed damage and penetration system and many other interesting features. By the time of the release we are planning to add 3 new maps, 4 more tank nations as well as new modes, missions and campaigns.

At the moment we are in the process of the beta keys giveaway, so whoever didn’t get the key yet still has the opportunity to participate in the closed beta! "

Ooo  got a pm back from one of the devs!

Hi,

there is not a big problem really. Your name will be changed to Salan after the game server restarts. I've put you on the waiting list. Please, wait.

muhaha.. no more Taaduuki jokes for you!

[brn4meplz]

Whatever you say Taduki

[Demon767]

all camoed up

[Mister Schmidt]

Can other people see your skin or is it only you?

[Demon767]

Only you. you are retexturing the tank skins in-game. so every tank type is the same colour you are. so every pz3 will look like that one ^ or every panther will look like the edited one

what i was thinking, if you guys can come up with a clan/tank insignia idea for the clan. ill put it on every tank. so you can be a little nostalgic when you see your clan/tank division insignia on yours and your brothers tanks in battle

[GrinningD]

My Jagdpanther, hunting MagicCandyBar.

[Mister Schmidt]

I see what you did there :')

[Masacree]

Only you. you are retexturing the tank skins in-game. so every tank type is the same colour you are. so every pz3 will look like that one ^ or every panther will look like the edited one

what i was thinking, if you guys can come up with a clan/tank insignia idea for the clan. ill put it on every tank. so you can be a little nostalgic when you see your clan/tank division insignia on yours and your brothers tanks in battle

And your enemies?

 

[Demon767]

your enemies dont see your skin, they see whatever skin they have in there folder

your enemies tanks will be the same texture as your tanks that you edited

[EliteGren]

I think Massacre asked if the enemies will have the EiR tag on too.

[Masacree]

The question was :

Won't you feel nostalgic when you see your clan/tank division insignia on all of your enemies tanks too?

Which sort of defeats the purpose, I think.

[salan]

Blah i think one of the major things for this game is getting that premium account
