Random Events and Dynamic Cover in Recon Mission 2023

[@fpgraphite5953]

This change will either be 100% hype or a total disaster, im cautiosly optimistic WG!

Can we all just appreciate how much they listen to the fans this time?

[@thencrranger5628]

aren't you people bragging about how world of tanks is now over with the crew rework and how wargaming never listened to the fans?

[@jackmasterpunk8350]

I hope they add this to other maps, not just these 5, would be interesting to see what they do

[@sebastiengill8809]

Redshire also had 2 blimps, although 1 is wrecked it would be cool for a blimp crash on that map

[@sigmamalegrindset132]

there was others teased like Airfield having dynamic water

[@stefandebeer9375]

I think the first 5 maps will first be a proof of concept, if it works they'll for sure add more maps to this feature...👀

[@onesteeltank]

There's a plane that crashes behind south spawn at the start of Erlenberg, it would be cool if they did something with it

[@Sceri0]

They have to start somewhere. Pretty sure they will add more once they will see how it is received. For example in the trailer released in the end of last year i believe i saw changing water levels on several maps

[@karlmuller6456]

The thing that I wonder about is: Those objects that can be destroyed got shot by a very low caliber (105mm). What if a Jg. Pz E100 hits them or a generally bigger gun? Do those objects have HP like tanks or simply shot-counters that make them disappear after they took 3 or 4 shots?

[@nikolaytretyakov3290]

Yes each of them has an HP pool that depends on the object type. The number of shots needed to destroy an object depends on the alpha of your gun.

[@MrClaypogue]

You clearly didn't listen to the video then......... It clearly states they will have HP and need to be shot to remove the HP so if a 4005 hit them or a jg 100 then probably not going to last long.........

[@karlmuller6456]

@@MrClaypogue Mate, HP can mean: "Ok you have 4 HP, with each shot you loose 1 of them." They don't say it clearly anywhere, so before you tell me something, make sure you at least know what was said yourself. XD

[@baohungle5410]

You shouldn't be concerned about this. There are destructible objects in the game already. If that's not enough then there's something called "module damage" Surely a 180mm shell from JPE100 will do more damage to anything compared to something like a 120mm S.Conq's gun. WG cannot be that stupid to leave those new destructible covers with shot-counting kind of HP.

[@ludovitbradovka5208]

@@baohungle5410 This is WG, expect dumb or smart decisions. They put 8 tanks into containers-dumb they made a gamemode that is so much fun, that even some other fun games would be jealous(call to mars/)- smart

[@pavelos3848]

You should make those moveable hulldowns destroyed with one (max. two) shots. Depending on module DMG of certain guns of course

[@akopowerletsplay3884]

watch my videos also

[@sanjikaneki6226]

and maybe the type of ammo used , like a HE from a 152mm should destroy them all in 1 hit

[@WorldOfTanksOfficialChannel]

Greetings All, Recon Mission - Random Events and Dynamic Cover will be releasing later today (May 15th). Just to clarify somethings, the main battle format is very close/the same as regular random battles. 15v15 combat just with the addition of the random events and dynamic covers. -You will be able to earn Battle Pass Points -It will count directly to account stats including W/L ratio as well as the possibility to earn Mastery badges and medals. -You will be able to earn XP and Credits like normal -The main thing that is disabled are campaign missions (progress towards the Obj. 260/279), as there is a limited map pool and that might significantly change how hard/easy those are to fulfill. Best, Ser_Remseldorf

[@thenaberius6081]

20 seconds to move out of way with T95 or mouse, or other heavy slow tanks... Bad bad... really small amount of time.

[@gofast8878]

Really love recon missions. The only other game mode besides some frontline now and then i play.

[@highongamin]

I think I'm gonna enjoy this. This change tomato players from camping with HTs and MTs.

[@comancosmin637]

An opinion just by seeing this is that wargaming have to be careful to not create situations that will make the heavies too op

[@Tomoki_Robo]

This

[@coin5212]

random events - yes dynamic covers - no

[@snakescull]

frontline is my favorite gamemode :D

[@matejmicola4057]

6:06 I´m looked at the wagon and realised that the Wot trailer from like 11 years ago might be getting real

[@falcon985]

Ok this looks really cool. Map changing in battle makes battle more dynamic and mobility a bigger requirement. Also it's fair you can't turn them off. Level playing field for all. I guess the worry is that on some maps if tanks get stuck between debre completing a battle might become difficult, but that's some technical issue to sort out anyway.

[@secretmapper7595]

Thank you for letting us submit our feedback asweell👍

[@generalcheese5858]

I am thinking about the Mines Map. Like A warship that will bombard the hills! Or earthquake that make two or more path to the hill? That Changes will really change the Map!

[@user-px1ix3pg2g]

🤣🤣😅

[@earlofsandwich7884]

When I saw the volcano on Oyster Bay my first thought was when is that baby going to go off!?

[@jokanaan2486]

What about player generated random events? Instead of train moving at a random time or falling zeppelin, allow players to push the trains to provide cover or shoot down a zeppelin for distraction. You could also destroy a bridge with enemies on it or destroy previously indestructible buildings or cover. Just some food for thought 🙂

[@Theunknownone58]

I like this though it will be hard to balance :)

[@baohungle5410]

To maintain the core gameplay, most of the terrain/buildings have to stay indestructible. Random events which are big enough to make an impactful change to the maps should not be triggered by players. Otherwise, either it will end up being too OP or too toxic. Plus, it's called "Random events", not "intentionally triggered events".

[@jonathaniel6614]

Imagine the resources it would take to not have just a single pre animated event happen and the physics associated I don't think that's happening

[@Tomoki_Robo]

Oh nice Though it'll need extensive testing

[@chaffysteam4128]

This actually really cool especially since you don’t know when it will happen or not

[@ajajel488]

I will pray for my potato pc to survive those event ingame now.

[@andrewmetasov]

That sounds good so far, and it definitely looks great. Hope that this feedback system will really help to make good improvements out of these events without big drawbacks.

what about night maps?

[@PuddingCh]

Cant wait to watch people (including myself) forget about these events during a battle and get crushed by a falling aircraft lol

[@TheBigVadi]

i hope these arent the final animations i really like this concept for randoms and cw but it looks a bit off so i hope its still in progress, with the timers i would say that it should happend or not at any given time of the battle (prob before min 7-8) but even at the countdown, the dinamic covers i feel that only the huge containers, trains and death tanks (which are currently a pain in the ass when you accidentally ram them) should be movable the other new ones like the blocks should have a bigger downside to the guy pushing it since they are too convinient maybe apart from breaking maybe work as a dmg reduction shield and take 75-25% of the pen and dmg of the shot ofc heat wont pen and reduce the hits to destroy it, apcr and ap should be more than capable of doing that irl so it could be interesting

[@garipask3790]

[@thebean3174]

does it appear in training battes too?

[@johnhall9695]

Looking forward to seeing the results

[@mrvktr7044]

Really looking forward to see the new mechanic. Hopefully the battles last long enough to happen these event because.. honestly, these object could do so much favor. Breaking campfests close and longe range combats, opening flanking position and allowing more tactical approach, teamwork and 1000IQ plays like covering your friend with an object.

[@gfgraeff2068]

Very nice changes! Congrats WG!

[@nathanlemmel]

How will this affect RAM usage? This update seems fire though.

[@Orcone]

The coolest part is that WG is adding more and more things that make the maps look more like warzones rather then a tank based playground (Im thinking directly about Berlin or the recently added Oyster Bay). These random events are another nice addition that not only shows off their great animation but also becomes a part of the map and tactics. Im looking forward to testing it in Recon Mission.

[@stevemc01]

On a side note, there seems to be almost no RNG in the Martian event (the gameplay at least, not the chests)… …and it is hands down one of the most godtier game modes I have ever played. Hella enjoyable with some wonk-ass physics that makes anything possible.

[@mtd_productions]

[@philburg2]

Wanna bump up those rewards a little bit? That's a lot of matches to play.

[@user-dbf4ez1xj2sr]

good changes, the main thing is not to listen to any Kwaku Babu and introduce them! So that new changes do not fall on the shelf, as it was with the crew.

[@StrKiddy2]

crew changes were actually garbage. Those are not.

[@cipyradutza]

Dynamic cover is not helping much against artillery not so important. As for the random events they will add chaos to the game. Much better to add objectives like for example capture a key position. This will help new players who don't know the maps to fare better cos many including myself don't know were to go or what's the better place to be and help your team and do more damage.

[@joelromo731]

[@daschesser]

I did not exxxxxxxxpeeeeect this to happen and I LOWE (a german tank) it. THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANK YOU Wargaming.

[@Adibarum]

it looks to me like Wargaming are trying to speed up the pace of the games so there will be less chance for sniping from cover, it look like they want us all to be out battling in the front line all the time, because they know where all the areas where tankers camp and they are going to make sure the random events happen in those areas and as they said if you don't get out of the way in time your tank will be destroyed, so now not only do we have the enemy tank and Arty to be concerned about we now have random events which could destroy us as well...fantastic

[@superdad933]

Cool...the terrain is no longer genuine but, more playable...I wish there are more random destructible structures in the map that are useful to players not only trees and broken tanks...example, destroying structure to escape deny reinforcement of the opposing team?..but if not done correctly will block your own team?...or if over-powered will collapse? sink? or drop into mud or sand pit...I wish there are more realistic scenarios in the game that can be randomly altered during the encounter or before the action begin...maybe, incorporating more random events that will enhance the game even it's not an actual event but, it's better if it really happened in the past similar to folklore stories that affect the history of ww2?

[@dymy8466]

this is really cool, but i think it would be better to have this just as separate game mode

[@Meldonator]

the key word is "RANDOM", if the events are scripted and happens everytime and at a given moment it will be only a "cosmetic" gimmick IMHO
