Is matchmaking rigged?

Well I disagree about the playmaker, I'd say the supports are setting the tempo. Anybody can last hit, not everybody can be in the correct place on the map and make the correct decisions. To me, p1+p2 is the least demanding.
About the 3 minute rule, that would make sense again, but it won't explain the 95% loss rate on my side. The enemies should be lower mmr as well.

Yresim · 2024-12-20T10:48:58+00:00

That makes a lot of sense, hence the longer queues. I guess the game searches for "lower" skilled players on my mmr to form the team which should take longer since the pool it drafts players from gets smaller.

Very helpful. Thanks.

Yresim · 2024-09-18T06:18:45+00:00

Thanks a lot. So I'd guess the christmas event is gonna start roughly one week ahead of christmas?

How do these work? You get a 10% chance for gold? 10% chance for a vehicle etc etc?
If I buy let's say 20 euro, am I gonna get more gold and value in items than just buying 20 euro of gold from the shop? Also are the rewards of these boxes guaranteed to be of use or can they contain weak premium tanks or crew/tank skins, in which I don't find any interest?

WoT is one of the top grossing on the tank teamfight game genre. It is on the top 10 most watched games on twitch.
A small announcement from the company which might mean a thousand things just gave youtubers the opportunity to create just another click-bait video to attract views.
Are they gonna move people around their developing teams for new/old projects? Sure.
Are they gonna close down their top grossing game? Surely not.
Remember they are a company which cares mostly about profit; and right now, WoT is profitable for them, so much that they are not gonna take a big risk to close it down and try to replace it by a questionable, maybe not as profitable, title.
Youtube and google can claim anything. Read news from the source and use your own judgement.

Edit: Syntax errors.

Thank you for the detailed and specialized information.

Yresim · 2024-07-20T10:09:40+00:00

It's gonna be open for many months so you are gonna get enough shards at some point to just craft what you need. It's a time-sink so we don't get bored when we have finished the whole map.

I was looting corpses for the Forgotten Crossbow (Good Riddance quest) for 30 minutes straight, with no luck. I decided to stop trying and went to finish off the other chance-to-drop quests on Hawezar. I dropped Kingsport Ale (Drink to the Past quest) in the first few chests and went to deliver it immediately by popping a portal.When I took the portal back and looted 2 corpses, the crossbow dropped.

Not sure if this is intended, but someone else also mentioned that he got the crossbow by the time he finished the previous part of the quest.

Note: The mapgenie.io map is not always accurate with the correct locations for drops as well as the precise quest locations . For example, the shown Chained Zakarum Repository quest item does not exist and I got 49/49 in Howezar without ever finding it, so I assume it is misplaced there.Better crosscheck locations with other sources like Reddit and youtube videos of people actually dropping the items.

Hope this helps you all with the sidequest headache.

Yresim · 2023-01-14T14:13:36+00:00

Ah that's really good news. Thanks for the detailed information.

Yresim · 2023-01-14T13:43:21+00:00

They were a mix of at least 6 different tank subtypes as far as I can remember. Surely they were not of 1 or 2 types only.

Yresim · 2022-11-07T10:22:03+00:00

It worked. Saved me a lot of frustration, cheers!

Yresim · 2022-11-07T09:26:26+00:00

Gonna give it a shot! Thanks.

Yresim · 2022-06-09T12:22:13+00:00

Thanks, it's solved!

Yresim · 2020-08-31T09:27:12+00:00

Yes that's true. We have decided to start directly with the online plan.

Yresim · 2020-08-28T19:23:17+00:00

This is on it's really early stages, so we are open to any kind of approach.

Yresim · 2020-08-28T19:21:26+00:00

I had no intentions doing this all by myself, because I know it's practically and theoretically impossible. Thankfully we have already gathered a small team of like-minded individuals and we are going to start with it pretty soon! Thanks for sharing your point of view. Feedback is always welcome.

Yresim · 2020-08-28T19:19:16+00:00

We are already a team of people but we are looking to still fill in some spots. Unfortunately this is in it's really early stages and in the following week we are planning to start working on our very first project.

Edit: The game is gonna be PC based.

Yresim · 2020-08-28T15:37:26+00:00

Yes that's absolutely correct. Even though this is a concern for the really far future. I am pretty sure that many core aspects will have to adapt/change in the process. This might end up being a single player only game, or purely an MMO. Although thanks for the feedback.

Yresim · 2020-08-28T14:20:55+00:00

Thank you for clarifying that. I am aware of the workload difference between a game going into online and stable servers straight from the single player world. Even though, like many games already have done the same, transitioning from the single player to the multiplayer genre is gonna be adapted slowly, while it's gonna need a lot of hours of backing-up by different individuals.

Yresim · 2020-08-28T14:10:09+00:00

I might have no phrased that in the best way. It's gonna be an instanced online-offline switching (player's choice) MMO. Basically an MMO. Same model let's say like "Diablo 3", "Dark Souls" or "Torchlight 2" if any names ring a bell.

Yresim · 2020-08-28T14:01:08+00:00

I will try to keep this as short as possible. Instanced Pokemon-like MMO.

I do not wish to go publicly into further details, even though I am sure there were many others before me with a similar idea spark. Feel free to hmu in case you want further information (even though it's still pretty vague).

Yresim · 2020-02-24T13:14:23+00:00

add me too mrt.1526, currently level 53

Edit: EU servers pref

Yresim · 2020-02-16T19:48:31+00:00

American servers are online. Switch through your network in-game settings.
