2012 Mystery Revealed
What to expect in WoT in the near future? A lot
of stuff!
We give you the unique opportunity to get hold
of World of Tanks release plans for 2011-2012. I'm totally sure most of
the plans announced will be accomplished in time thanks to the team of
highly-skilled professionals, that currently comprises around 300 people in 3
major offices.
With the development center in Minsk, Belarus,
Wargaming.net has fully functioning operation office in California, the US, and
two forming offices in the EU - in Paris and Berlin.
The main focus of the development team is to
introduce new game modes, add more tank models (French are coming soon), new
maps (Jungles, anyone?), improve visual effects and the engine itself.
The detailed release plans are given
below.
New Game Modes
Company battle divisions: tier 10 max with no overall tier limitation, tiers 8, 6, and 4 max with the respective overall tier limitation. | Q4 2011 |
Assault (one team attacks, the other one defends the base) and Encounter battle (two teams are to capture the base in the center of the map). | Q4 2011 |
