WoT Live?

Gargamel · 03-21-11, 04:23 PM

So I read that WoT is going live in a few weeks, 11 April if I'm not mistaken.

But I'm not even sure what that means. Is this going to be a subscription based game? Or a 'after market' add-on type deal (free to play, but the really nice rewards are cash based).

And yes I know it's not a good sim, as the physics and controls are very arcadish, but I've really been having fun with it (got 3 tier 3 tanks in a few days).

Hi,
the game is going to be Free 2 Play.
The beta settings on your account will be wiped
Everyone will start at 0 with just 3 tier 1 tanks.

However, the you can buy Gold (Premium Account) through micro transactions.
Last time I looked there was no fixed price, but I think something like 2500 gold for $10/10Euros was mooted

heres a link to the preorder thread http://forum.worldoftanks.com/index....s/page__st__40

and interesting poster (may be out of date) http://downloads.worldoftanks.ru/wot.../preorders.jpg

OK good. And the wipe will be a good thing for me I think, as I didnt really understand the tech trees and whatnot at first, and wasted a lot of points.

Are we putting together a clan? I'd really like to get some coordinated manuevers going on. Like a scout that doesn't suicide so my artillery can hit some targets, and a couple tanks w/ a TD setting up some ambushes...

SgtPotato and I played a few matches the other day, and while we weren't very coordinated (I was playing in a stug and he was in a easy8 sherman most of the time, it was fun and I gained enough EXP to get myself the JgdPz IV!)

I'd like to start a clan, pre-wipe is fine, and post wipe once the game goes live, I'll have to see about hosting a clan, if I have to spend money opening a premium account to do so. chances are I'll be able to, but we'll see how it goes.
