World of Tanks Changing Based on Player Feedback

Version 9.15 of World of Tanks is coming, and with it comes a pack of community requested content. The update, which is live now brings some balance changes to some of the tanks, and changes to the UI and UX, all of which has come directly from the feedback of fans of the game. 

With such a vast amount of content across multiple platforms, it's inevitable that Evolution in World of Tanks is a gradual process, but thanks to the dedicated players, the dev team addressed elements that truly take their experience up a gear. A number of popular mods have been added to the client as native in order to make it more user friendly. It's now possible to extend Garage filters, view several previously hidden vehicle characteristics, which will change in real-time when certain upgrades are used, and more, in a safe and easy way.

“Work on Update 9.15 started with having a conversation with the players,” said Anton Pankov, World of Tanks Global Publishing Producer. “We connected with them on social media, our forums, during player gatherings; spoke to opinion leaders in the community and trialed changes on test servers to set our priorities. It’s invaluable, and from this we’re able to further polish features and mechanics.

“In the future, we’ll be addressing more player requests, and introducing the sandbox: the first step in one of the biggest changes in World of Tanks history. We’ll be rebalancing every single tank in the game—a truly massive task. Feedback matters more than ever. We’ll be in close communication with the community every step of the way because it’s only by working together that we can make World of Tanks the best experience possible.”
