as promised here is the "Japanese Heavies Q&A" with Daigensui, these questions were picked from the comment section of a previous normal Q&A:
Is there a possibility to have a t8 prem for the IJA HT?
- Yes, although it will take a while.
For the Type 5 HT, is the gun originally from 14cm naval gun.
- Yes.
How much of the line is created by WG/you (due to lack of historical data) ?
- There was constant communication and cooperation. So say which part of the line was made by which is impossible to say, never mind needless.
Regarding high-tiered Japanese HT armaments.
Considering the cooperation between Rikugun and Kaigun was unlikely since the Rikugun and Kaigun were not on good terms at the start of the war , is it even possible for Rikugun to obtain 12,7 cm and 14 cm Naval Artillery to be mounted on their tanks and have ammunition supplied to them?
- If we suppose that IJA supplied the hull for use in coastal defense, then it is possible. After all, IJN did do their own modifications with Chi-Ha with 12 cm guns.
Is the O-I 120 model correct? According to SoukouDragon's article from 2013 there is no 4th turret (third miniturret) behind the main turret: http://ftr.wot-news.com/2013/11/19/superheavy-japanese-tanks/- About as "correct" as possible. Plus, you have to realize that there are quite a few artist's interpretations that are not based on actual blueprints or interviews with the engineers who worked on the projects.
These tanks are obviously very large, do you think that they might be restricted gameplay and teamwork-wise because of their size? For example, on a map like Himmelsdorf, the new tanks could take up so much space, that they could be problematic for allies.
- About as problematic as T95.
Will the new heavy tanks have any interchangeable modules with the current lines?
- Maybe, we'll see how the TD line works out.
From what tank it will start the new heavy branch?(Chi-Ha, or Chi-He)?
- Starts from Tier 1.
Modules (engines, radios, gun) from medium tree will be available for some tanks in the new heavy tree?
- Radio should be interchangable.
How many crew members will the tier X have?
- Six, obviously.
What suspension types were investigated for the Japanese Heavy projects? Was it a beefed up version of the standard Hara bell cranks or something else entirely?
-
What role were the heavy tanks intended to fill in the Japanese order of battle/who wanted them? (ie type 95 ha go was a cavalry tank, Type 97 chi ha was infantry support, Type 91/95 heavy was for.........)
- Armored bunker to dominate any and all land-based opposition.
How were the vehicles intended to be transported outside of combat?
- By its own power, likely. I doubt they thought that far ahead.
Were there any derivatives of the designs for other purposes ie SPG/Tank Destroyer ?
- No.
On the higher tier Japanese heavies most of the angling is actually terrible, lets be honest it's quite flat. If you take a look at the STA-1, STB-1, Type 61 and so on they have well angled upper plates, so if they design tanks as insane as the heavies why did they forget about angling ? What happened ?
- First, you're comparing postwar JGSDF to IJA. Second, it's likely more an issue of whether angling would have been possible. With IJN sucking up all the welding experts, I would say that IJA didn't have the necessary expert manpower to ensure that angling of such heavy plates would not fall apart under its own weight or from impact.
Could you clear out your PMs please ^^. I tried to PM your NA account a few days ago.. No success :(
- Use WoT forum
What do you think of slanders like this one: http://i.imgur.com/Yc5mFbL.png
*Doesn't answer for a few minutes due to laughter*
-You know, aside from Rita knowing that we are not the same person, you might notice that we have quite different positions on a number of things, such as my not liking the existence of the Japanese Tiger (a necessary evil to save up Japanese designs). Never mind that, the constant character assassination attempts at this point is so hilarious, I can only think of it as trying to compensate for a lack of something on the part of all the people who believe that crap. Perhaps they feel insecure in front of someone who obviously knows more than they ever will and can completely run them into the ground? Who knows, after all they're irrelevant in every way.
RG: Damn... even I know better than to piss Daigensui off.
Thank you for participating! :)
This is for the reader coming from a Google Search to this blog. Daigensui is actually a guy pretending to be a kawaii Japanese girl so everyone would agree with him, and in fact, I wouldn't be surprised if this "interview" was staged. For those unaware, Daigensui is actually a South Korean male living in Vancouver going by the name Kang Seung Jae, and was busted after the South Korean World of Tanks community banned him and discovered the truth. Among other things, Daigensui claimed he was:
ReplyDelete- Was a very intelligent, overachieving student that graduated from both Tokyo and Yonsei Universities
- Worked in a fortune 500 company owned by “her” parents
- Possessed net worth surpassing 10 million dollars
- Was a distant relative of the present Emperor of Japan
To enhance the ruse of being wealthy, Daigensui even donated to a visual novel just to prove that 500 dollars was something he could toss around casually, showing just how determined Daigensui was to maintain this ruse. One would surmise that Daigensui suffers from multiple personality disorder. The "research" for World of Tanks that he claims to be difficult is anything but, and more often than not, Daigensui is outright wrong about things. Daigensui is also the insecure one.
Daigensui: if you are reading this, on behalf of the entire internet, let me be the first to say that not having your misinformation, feels-based evidence and lies in the forums is a breath of fresh air. You were wrong about everything conceivable surrounding Girls und Panzer, and it is a travesty that anyone, such as Willx, was stupid enough to agree with you. I know you played the anime girl card in an attempt to trick people into agreeing with you, and while it worked for a while, evidently, maintaining the ruse was too much work for you to handle. Since then, other users have continued on the discussion about Girls und Panzer without you, and in fact, have occasionally made you a laughing stock for how ignorant you were. I'll admit, not seeing your presence cloud the forums with lies and deceit means that better thoughts on Girls und Panzer Das Finale and Der Film could actually be heard over your pseudo-intellectual, vociferous and irrelevant rambling. While you may have tricked half of the internet into believing you were a girl, you didn't fool me, and you certainly didn't fool anyone with half a brain.
Let me be the first to tell you a little secret: there aren't any women out there who possess all of these traits and would also waste their lives on forums, spewing racist, bigoted insults to anyone who disagree with them. They'd be doing thing of greater value beyond digging through publicly available tank documents no one cares about. No, you are Kang Seung Jae, only pretending to be female for e-cred. See, the Korean WoT community disavowed you and banned you from every online community imaginable. A phone call with you revealed you were a guy. How desperate were you to seek approval and validation, that you resorted to pretending to be a girl? Pathetic.
I know that you have no education, and that you waste your life on meaningless pursuits. You only know more than the average person about things that are utterly irrelevant, and it is you who are insecure. If you want to fight it out, jackass, I'd run you into the ground every day and twice on Sundays. Your life must be pretty irrelevant, if you've got such a high-and-mighty attitude; this only proves that you're the insecure one. It seems you've also gotten yourself banned from virtually every community of note, with Sufficient Velocity just a few months ago being the most recent, for your incorrect and uninformed political opinions, it is clear that whatever delusions you count as political opinion have no weight. What a shameful, sad legacy to leave behind.
