As I posted on the YouTube video:
Wow, Very nice, loving the new features except for one..... I think trucks and stuff should still be destroy-able, if you hit it hard enough, or something like the Maus just pushes it against a wall and squashes it....
Great work otherwise

Tank flipped over? I thought this wasn't a good idea.....

I doubt it will be as realistic as in That_Other_Game where a BT-7 drives on 45-50 km/h and flips over on a sharp turn.
WoT is too arcadey for that and the focus on fast paced gameplay too important.
In That_Other_Game it doesn't matter that you have to drive carefully, since it's already a slow paced game to begin with... as slow as tank combat can get anyway.
Tests will show... in 0.9.X or when hell freezes.

First thing I'm doing....A BARREL ROLL!
I just provide the loaded gun,
It's your decision if you want to pull the trigger.

Great work.
Will the new physics stil allow the barrel to unrealistically traverse through solid objects?

I have experienced a couple of times, after slipping sideways, getting stuck at an angle on one track - unable to move anywhere, just stuck. On these occasions I would have prefered a flip over. Who knows, I might have flipped right way up

looks great.
Now, not only do I have to be careful of incoming shells in my light tanks, I now have flying turrets, falling buildings, and probably trucks being pushed by other tanks, and to top it off, I can now flip over..........
Much anticipation.....I want to do barrel rolls in the A-20.
Did you also notice the bit about the tread physics, the new system will allow for more fun power sliding in fast tanks, maybe I can get the MT-25 to do a 180 slip

No... if it's an option to turn it on... I would assume that some people would just see the buildings break like they do now... especially if peoples comps cannot handle the graphics involved.

So, again with this old question.
So now with the new Havok engine and epic graphics improvement, which do you think is better?
World of Tanks or The Game that everyone knows which I will not specifically mention its name.
