World of Tanks - Development: How We Made the New Physics

Update 9.14. brought improved physics for vehicle movement. How was it created? What exactly was made? What can we expect in the future? The developers themselves answer these questions and more in the new episode of WoT Development. Happy viewing!

I don't understand these people saying the sounds and physics are worse, to me it feels really good. especially the guns sound much more impressive

[procrastinator]

"issues with team balance" Great to hear that you acknowledge that this is a problem!

[FSXNOOB]

WG is lika a Lada, you will get from A to B like in a Mercedes, it will only take you years..

[Imufur]

finally some devs understand fun is way more important than realism

[Methylimidazol]

Good job, WG. New physics are awesome.

No fucks given about gold ammo am I right ?!

It would be really great if you could have similar training battles to World of Warships. If you could drive around a new map on your own without having to invite anyone, if the ammo resuply was free, and if you could place bots in your or enemy team and choose any tank you want them to be, or you want them to be afk or active and armed. I mean you already have bots for tier 1 (t10 bots don't have to be smart, it's enough if they could only move and fire at you).

And about 9.14... It's the greatest freaking update!!!

Wargaming, how can you make so good physics, while setting the fucking gravity value so low that it feels you're bouncing and flying on the Moon! Please increase the gravity, I think it needs to be at least doubled.

[nazimelon]

Serious question: could you change the trainingrooms, so that you can change the physics in your own room? imagine moon-gravity on Himmelsdorf and similar. that would be awesome.

one problem in my opinion i cant tell the differences between what gun just fired plz help

[Kinsanth_]

you could reimplement the spotting range from the tds from earlier, its really poor that a td cant spot for its own, if its alone against scouts and heavies ... or instead reimplement the old camo system from the tds, but stay with the low viewrange . either of these adjustments would make the game again mor playable

Also: 9.14 was a great Patch. the Physics work how they should and the sounds are really nice (although still a little monotone but... whatever. I mean, i´m not fully sure why you didn´t team up with Gnomefather or something like that and used their sounds as a base but i´m sure you had your reasons).

The next things, in my opinion, should be Premium-ammo, Artillery and a certain aspect of the Matchmaker, for which, after quiet a lot of "research" within the game, i can provide an answer for all of them.

1. Maximize the Premium-loadout to aprx. 10% of the tanks maximum ammo. Premium-ammo IS useful sometimes, even I say that although i do not/extremley rarely use it, but it should not be used for an unfair advantage. Many people say "everyone can buy it for credits", i tell you "thats wrong". not everyone is a professionnel player and always has millions of credits.

2. Half the damage, double the accuracy. less frustrating for everyone. Arty does hit but doesn´t one-shot all the time.

3. The problem that many people have got with the Matchmaker is the win-chance that XVM provides. I say, fuck them. In my opinion, it´s stupid to throw a game because XVM told you to or expect a game company to base there matchmaker on a third-party rating system.
What IS an actual problem with the MM though, is that you, on some days, end up being on the lowest tier everytime. if there is a certain maximum for that or something similar, that would be enough.

Just some opinions from a long-time player, that saw all of the crying, whining, bitching, changes and what so on.

why does engine sometimes while climbing just crash (overheat)?

[TheNameTooSexyToShow]

I work at WG and this is not how we made the new physics, this is only a video to manipulate the community of WoT. I would love to tell you how we made the new physics, but when I got home after work the next morning I had such an outrageous hang-over that I forgot what happened at work.

[willimdarmawan]

keep up the good works wargaming..God bless you guys

[Disbandeddeath]

would you be able to release new physics for console

[tk-chzh]

nice step!!!
Now get some amendments. Fying, roling and bouncing tanks... do sth with that! :)
And why all tanks are farster exept jgtiger 8.8? After that patch it stopped spinning ?!?!

[edelmiropaspan]

It would be nice if they release a new game mode using the 10.0 physics

7:50...that brick is like the in game FCM...without the gun doh :D
