Tank freezes incoming

Taken from the GoHa.Ru interview:
Interested to find out what many of you clan wars addicts think about this?
Quote
GoHa.Ru: Well, we still have a lot of questions: For example, how long will the tank be "Frozen" for tanks such as tier 10 heavy tanks, tier 9 medium tanks and tier 8 artillery... will it be different for each of them? Will any destroyed tank be frozen, or is it only applicable for the tanks of the defeated team? Will this system operate during landing tournaments? And probably the most important question - when will this system be introduced?
Kirill Mal: I cannot definitively say how long each vehicle will be frozen for. It is a matter of fine-tuning, what I can say is that a destroyed tier 10 heavy tank will be locked for a couple of days. There will be no distinction between winning and losing, both will be locked, there will be no freezing after landing tournament encounters. The Final battle against the owner of the landing zone will be considered as a fight for the province and vehicles will be locked on defeat.
This system is seen as a priority and thus we work on it very hard. I think it will be introduced somewhere around autumn.

It just means that wargaming cant merge the eu+us servers with the russians on the global map because the russians will have too big an advantage having all the t10 and t8 arty already.

This is just plain retarded. Bigger clans will now have a de facto advantage over smaller clans just because of sheer numbers.

This will limit only the smaller clans. Those larger clans who already hold territory on CW map got their top tiers a while ago already and are currently getting new tanks. So when this thing is implemented larger clans have loads of tanks to be used even after freezing (from same members), while smaller clans could easily lose their territories in couple of days due to not having enough tanks for tomorrow's fights.

I'd say that this is a canny move on the part of wargaming.net to generate revenue. If this is introduced, everyone involved in clan wars who doesn't have multiple end tier vehicles will have to do some serious grinding or exp conversion. For players who love one particular tree, they will have to start grinding multiple alt's if they want to play every day but only want to use one tank.
As others have said, this will affect smaller and newer clans more, and severely unbalance things when the maps are merged. Clans with huge amounts of gold in the kitty will be able to make the transition with less difficulty by funding XP conversion for their members, so this is likely to make the situation on the map more entrenched and static IMHO.
The changes that are being introduced look like they will punish risk taking and aggressiveness, and promote static nap-fests - which is a depressing outlook considering how dynamic the european server has become recently.

what about the bypass you can do, kick the account with frozens tank (if it lasts 3 days) get a new one in with tanks and so on.

this will surely change things around many clans. If your tank gets knocked-out in first battle of the day and your clan wins it, why the heck should your mighty maus be fighting in next battle? Got another tank? Fine. No? Let somebody else from your 100 member long memberslist participate.
I think it's a great idea, but i'd like to see the tanker himself beeing "frozen" from remaining battles for the day and be able to patricipate in CW the day after, however main tank knocked out in stage one should still be out of it.

I currently have T30, Patton as top tanks and about 700k locked XP. I'm sure that a lot of players have huge amounts of locked XP on various vehicles and this "tank freezing business" forces a player's hand to convert that into free XP, to get another tier X. Although I agree, this will change the way CW is played forever as it will create a huge gap between older and newer clans, this is nothing but a smart marketing strategy. Get gold, use gold, BUY gold.

Yeah, this is marketing. 'Your IS-7 and Maus is locked? BUY GOLD, GET PREMMIUM, GET ANOTHER T10!'
Ahh, forget. Who will bet that short after or with they will introduce option to 'Unlock your tank immedietaly, only 500 gold'

Short time after releasing this option they will realise its too op and increase the charge to 2k gold

I for one do not look forward to this feature at all. Plenty of clans have only a few T10's. This is going to make it even worse for them.
Good news for larger clans with plenty of T10's though....

Overlord has confirmed it.
RED is going to love this. Mash your clan up first round, next wave, and the next until your finally out of defence against their zerg.

This will just mean a logistics nightmare for clan management and fixed lineups....
Oh boy! here comes the stress again....

Who cares if RED NAP´s around or European Clans. It doesn´t make any difference, but anyways this new "feature" is crap. It forces people to play more random-shit-games.

Maybe make a petition? Because this is bad. For small clans and even for big clan(big clan maybe are big, but they can't get their 100ppl online) What is more most population of big clan are 4fun players.
Of course, petition need many clans to have 'power to clout' and WG to hear it.
Even if we are enemies on UC, we should cooperate in the matters which endanger us both
and want to kill our fun.
