Hello warriors,
recently, a MM developer called "Nikita" made a stream with well-known RU streamer Amway921. Here's what he said about Wargaming MM. Some of the stuff is pretty nuclear.
- There will never be skill MM in random battles, that is SerB's unchanged position. If you want skill MM, go play team battles;
- Developer admits that sometimes, WG implements features without telling anyone. They implement it, make it live and announce it only if it's working properly (otherwise they silently remove it);
- "National battles" MM experiments led to no good results;
- The least vehicles you can meet in one random battle is 7vs7 (happens during late night when very few players are playing);
- Accounts with over 2500 battles played are considered as "advanced players" and when playing lowtier battles, they will not be playing with players with less than 2500 battles (RG: Couldn't agree more, something I've been saying for some time...)
- If a player is 3 times in a row at the bottom of the team, in 4th battle he will definitely be on the top of the team;
- After buying a new vehicle, the first battle with that tank you will definitely be on top of the team;
- Matchmaker has an unused parameter where it treats stock vehicles differently but the developers decided not to use it;
- Apparently platoons have lower chance of appearing on top of the team ("you want to play on the top of the team - play more solo");
- Developers want to ban troll-platoons but it is unclear when will that happen;
- In 9.7, many additional statistics will be collected;
- Developers already created a piece of code that allows the game to match two players together in a platoon not based only on winrate and number of battles but also based on overall account statistics;
- There is a mechanism developed for gold transfer among the players but it will not be implemented;
- Currently everyone at WG is playing WoWs;
- WoWs has a different MM mechanism, developed by Lesta (WoWs developer);
- WoT Blitz will have bots in tutorial, the tutorial mode is being completely reworked;
- In China (Chinese market), 60-70 percent of players are playing on Windows XP;
- Developers are working hard on Mac OS WoT client;
- MM is being completely reworked, there's no ETA however. There are plans for many small but very nice fixes.
Which reminds me...
ReplyDeleteWhere are my Chinese TDs? And the possible second heavy line?
Pls WG... :(
Also, dammit, what will WG do with M46 and M47?
Btw - Are You Chacharo from the wot Forums?
DeleteYes :)
DeleteNice, i liked your reviews alot.
DeleteThank you :) !
Delete@Chinese TDs.
DeleteIts all about the hard data... and hard data, that is actually true, on tanks/vehicles from China is almost impossible to get.
*Looks at WT E 100*
Delete*VK series*
*E Series*
*LTTB*
Uhm...
"Which reminds me...
DeleteWhere are my Chinese TDs?"
In soviet tech tree.
Do you really wanna play darker green SU100, ISU152, ... Adjust your gamma and contrast. There are your copy-pasted chink TDs.
People really wanna more clones ?I can already see it: Type SU100 , Type SU152, ...
Whole chinese tree should be removed from the game to save clients size.
This three-times-in-a-row rule seems a bit strange to me. Does it also apply if you change vehicles? If yes, aftet being lowtier three times you could select your next tank accordingly eg. use a Luchs wich is OP on it's own tier.
ReplyDeleteI think it only works for the same tank. If it doesnt, thats a smart idea :p
Delete"- There will never be skill MM in random battles, that is SerB's unchanged position. If you want skill MM, go play team battles;"
ReplyDeletePlease WG put this in BIG BOLD letters in the client welcome screen so we can stop the flame wars on this issue.
"If a player is 3 times in a row at the bottom of the team, in 4th battle he will definitely be on the top of the team" Absolute BullS%!. just 2 days ago I played with matilda to finist MT-6 mission and was lowest tier all night long with one or 2 exceptions !!! but there were more than 5 time lowest tier in a row.
ReplyDelete"After buying a new vehicle, the first battle with that tank you will definitely be on top of the team" Absolute BullS%!. I bought the T28 and was in the tail for about 7 or 8 battles. now for some mysterious reason I'm 80*% of the time top tier.
maybe you already had a module researched with the t28?... weird
DeleteYes I played the first battle with tank full (already all parts unlocked from the T28 Prot.) but still.
DeleteI 'think', but I'm not sure, they are talking about functionality yet to be implemented, not live yet.
DeleteAccounts with over 2500 battles played are considered as "advanced players" and when playing lowtier battles, they will not be playing with players with less than 2500 battles (RG: Couldn't agree more, something I've been saying for some time...)
ReplyDeleteThen xvm would have wrong when show me half of all players in a battle of T7 Car is below 1k battles :v i've played 4k.
t7 is not lowtier
DeleteHe means T7 Combat Car American Light Tank which is tier 2...think a little b4 u reply:P
DeleteI think this feature will come in 9.7 its not up yet.
DeleteXVM shows plenty of incorrect data all the time...
DeleteBut yes, they are talking about functionality yet to come quang pro, not yet in production.
DeleteKeep seeing 'low tier', 'mid tier' and 'high tier' without any real explanation as to which tiers these refer to (and you can't quite divide 10 tiers in three even groups). I assume it's gonna be either 1-4, 5-7 and 8-10 *or* 1-3, 4-7 and 8-10?
Delete- After buying a new vehicle, the first battle with that tank you will definitely be on top of the team;
ReplyDeleteI call bullshit.
wrong, I bought BDR G1B and I was top tiers a few of games. I know that because when this tank is low tiers, it is useless !
DeleteThis is true and only be applied to the very first match of a tank, rebuy doesnt count
DeleteWhat if this is upcoming feature with the 9.7 patch :o
DeleteThe least vehicles you can meet in one random battle is 7vs7 (happens during late night when very few players are playing);
ReplyDelete4vs4 Today Morning
- If a player is 3 times in a row at the bottom of the team, in 4th battle he will definitely be on the top of the team;
I hope there aren't people who believe that because MM fucks me always in my B1(Only Limited MM Standard Tank)
- Developers want to ban troll-platoons but it is unclear when will that happen;
Unclear for WG is the same like when we asked our parents if we could buy a toy and they used to say "We'll see".Practically that gives you false hope and it will never happen.
- Developers already created a piece of code that allows the game to match two players together in a platoon not based only on winrate and number of battles but also based on overall account statistics;
So,you are going to count Ze "Stronk" Personal Rating?Tickle me so I can laugh.
PR is quite inaccurate Imo.
- There is a mechanism developed for gold transfer among the players but it will not be implemented;
(@ Update 9.8)
WG:Gold Transfer Is Finally Introduced
Me:Time for Invite Codes Hunting
- Currently everyone at WG is playing WoWs;
They are "playing" with something else but anyway.
- Developers are working hard on Mac OS WoT client;
Yeah very "Hard"
- WoT Blitz will have bots in tutorial, the tutorial mode is being completely reworked;
May U do it in WoT too...there would be less newbies....Oh damn I forgot ur focusing on working very "hard" on MAC WoT and on playing WoWs
Yeah give me that MAC OS Client ASAP plz! Im tired of Bootcamp and won't buy a Whinedoves machine just for WoT / WoWs… So plz HURRY UP guys.
ReplyDeleteyet they havent quite figured out Windows..
DeleteAdleast you dont have invizible IS-7, Tiger I, JPanthers, Centurions, Chafees and Tiger P. Its so much fun shooting at IS-7 lower plate while its invizible. 10/10
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteRG consider this "Nikita" as an unreliable source. some stream info like this make me wonder what do they think of our IQ.
ReplyDeleteAnd If you already have Chi-nu-kai do not bother to finish the mision because you get only 750 gold.
ReplyDelete-Accounts with over 2500 battles played are considered as "advanced players"
ReplyDelete// They never played their own game, obviously. Number of fights mean nothing.
If you want prove: http://worldoftanks.eu/community/accounts/502265687-SCORPIONXXXL/
ask this bot user... (and yes i got replay of him doing so). Thats how you "advance" in wot... ty wg.
No further comments.
- There will never be skill MM in random battles, that is SerB's unchanged position. If you want skill MM, go play Armored Warfare;
ReplyDeleteIf you insist.....................
"- After buying a new vehicle, the first battle with that tank you will definitely be on top of the team;"
ReplyDeleteThis is simply a lie. In fact, this was almost never the case for me. When I got my ELC AMX, my first three matches were tier 8 matches. I was playing solo, random matches only on the EU2 server. And yes, it was during prime time with over 60.000 players on the EU2 server alone.
Now that I think about it, when I got my AMX 40 I ended up in tier 6 matches for my first 10 matches or so. I can bust this statement with almost every single tank I have.
Delete"- Developers want to ban troll-platoons but it is unclear when will that happen;"
ReplyDeleteRobocraft solved this problem easily months ago:
"All Platoon team members must now be in the same Tier, you will not be entered for battle until your Tiers match"
- Accounts with over 2500 battles played are considered as "advanced players" and when playing lowtier battles, they will not be playing with players with less than 2500 battles (RG: Couldn't agree more, something I've been saying for some time...)
ReplyDeleteif thats the case, then keep their asses out of tier 8 premiums, and any battle ABOVE tier 4.. protect us from them as well.. pretty freaking simple WG goobers
Agreed :)
Delete"The least vehicles you can meet in one random battle is 7vs7" i've had it 3v3 at tier 10 right after servers came back up
ReplyDelete" - Apparently platoons have lower chance of appearing on top of the team ("you want to play on the top of the team - play more solo");"
ReplyDeleteRemember all those times in Q&A where someone would bring up that the MM goes out of its way to try and screw platoons over, and Storm/Serb/etc vehemently denied anything such saying it was all in their heads, it was all a coincidence, MM treats everyone equally etc?
How amusing :v
I know for fact and from experience that players don't have the same armor (example: can't pen an amx 12t 3 times with a 311 pen gun) not ricochet*
Deleteand couldn't pen a t49 from the rear with a +300 pen shell twice.
and they were all unicums ( it happened to me about 50 times in the last 2000 battles)
And they dare to throw it in our face as 1st April's prank saying it was all blabbers from sore losers in forums.
it happened a lot more when I try to play with my friend's account who has very poor stats. whey i use the same tank and the same pc and almost the same crew set up !!!!
DeleteYou're an idiot.
Delete" If a player is 3 times in a row at the bottom of the team, in 4th battle he will definitely be on the top of the team "
ReplyDelete- I call bull. I was once 8 matches in row bottom tier.
"After buying a new vehicle, the first battle with that tank you will definitely be on top of the team"
- I call bull again. I have often not been top tier with new tanks.
"Apparently platoons have lower chance of appearing on top of the team"
- More bull. I have seen top tier platoons on enemy team all the time.
Yessss
ReplyDeleteFinally they are working on MAC client!
Rita please ask your sources 1,do they play their game world of tanks 2 if not ? why .and 3 if they don't they can't understand why players get pissed off with them for not listening to us
ReplyDelete" If you want skill MM, go play team battles;"
ReplyDeleteLet me do daily quests and personal missions in Team battles and I'll never ever join random anymore.
"- Developers want to ban troll-platoons but it is unclear when will that happen;"
ReplyDeletebecause not allowing them to even join game in such platoon is too difficult ?
Let them join and then ban them ... WG at its finest.
"- After buying a new vehicle, the first battle with that tank you will definitely be on top of the team"
ReplyDeleteIs this maybe on other servers than NA as both my first matches in a Lorr.155 51 and Chi-ri where not top tier in those matches the Lorr ended up in a tier 10 match on Himmelsdorf and the Chi-ri in a tier 8 on Prokhorovka.
