I'm honestly not sure! In the rare occurrence when I d/c, my ship almost always comes to a complete stop.

Hi, Folks

Sorry to hear that you don't value the camos even if they are free. Not all free rewards are going to be the same or be valued by players the same.

I'll remind you that we give out a metric boatload of items for free in this game. Not all of them will be to your highest liking, but try and look at it over time. We just released a DY with a free Tier 7 premium that can be completed by absolutely anyone just for playing. We did that with the Repulse, Graf Spee, Tachibana / Yahagi, and Gorizia in other dockyards. Premium ships are a boon for F2P accounts.

@Ahskance has even been playing a free-to-play account on his stream and has been astounded by what he's been able to accumulate just for playing.

I understand that some camos are not very exciting compared to things like these, but please understand that they are that: free. If you regard expendable camos as dirty underwear... well that's a shame, but no...

Calm yourself, Iago - it's a closed test-of-concept

Surface ships can fire-and-forget as their main weapon. CV's are literally locked into guiding their main ordinance. We're going to test both options and choose the one that works best.

I agree! Ships need to feel similar, but different so that they aren't too difficult to pick up but offer a style of gameplay that feels unique.

Not an easy thing to do!

You're welcome to DM me the replayfile on Discord or in a private message here in the forums.
It sounds like you and an enemy sub ran into each other underwater, which is so incredibly rare as to suggest that you should go buy a lottery ticket right now.

It never exactly went away.

The matchmaker changes that were introduced a few patches ago were intended to reduce the chance of this sort of matchmaking and it did. This can still happen, however, when the population of submarines and DD's far outweighs the other classes in the moment.

There will always be specific instances of unpleasant matchmaking that isn't your optimal loadout, but the changes we introduced were intended to lessen the occurrence of it and we've actually seen in our data that it did!

Hello, Captains!

The North American team will be out of the office this Wednesday, August 17th. This means there will be no Community Stream in English, Spanish, or Portuguese, unfortunately . If you are looking for your Community Tokens, then we encourage you to tune into the EU stream at 11am - 1pm Central Time and say hello to our EU colleagues!

Thank you!

As someone else pointed out - those Research Bureau points are waiting for you right there - all you have to do is repurchases the ships and play a game with at least 300bxp.
You did it just fine - but the next part is regrinding the ships :)

Hi, there
2 things:

1. As a game company, we do not base potential improvements to the game on whether or not it will render old community content obsolete. It's just not the way things work, nor should it. "Well, we can't update the captain skills because Notser's videos on captain skills won't be relevant anymore".

2. I doubt content creators are saying to themselves, "shoot - now I have to go back and redo my videos". That's not how content creation works. Especially for YouTubers, more views is what they want. In fact, such a shift in captain skills means there is more territory for them to make content, not HAVE to make content. Twitch streamers also benefit from this in that they can make content out of trying new builds.

The game is going to evolve and change. Most skills are similar, if not exactly the same as old skills, albeit moved around so that not every ship class has access. Removing AFT from cruisers ...

Hi, there!
Considering how many times I hear folks' saying that World of Warships is "pay-to-win", it's always a surprise to me to hear the opposite. It sounds like you are frustrated that, despite your input over the years, the results in your WR have remained the same. As someone who was once very bad at the game, who then became someone very good at the game, the most effective way to get better is to division with those who are better than you and to watch instructional videos from veteran players.
YouTubers like Potato_Quality are easy to understand and make videos that are accessible to a wide audience. I recommend giving him a try! He's on of our NA CC's!

Hi there,
I'm going to take issue with this take on the change. Snowflakes have always been so much easier to complete in Coop due to the speed at which games go that Randoms players actually start to fill up Coop matches during this time just to get them all done in a timely manner. This annoys the Randoms players AND annoys the coop players.

This change was designed to allow both Coop and Randoms players to complete their snowflakes in roughly an equal amount of time rather than provide a significantly faster route through Coop only. Coop players can and will knock out multiple snowflakes at a times while Randoms do the same. The reason for Randoms having more knocked off per match is due to the average battle length of each mode. Coop players are only increasing their rate of snowflake completion.


This is literally a net gain for everyone, so I'm afraid I'm going to disagree with your take that coop players are experi...

Some ships are meant to have Depth Charges rolled off the back. Some ships have side launchers. Some have forward launchers. Some ships have combinations. Others have airstrikes.

We want some variety!

Well that's even easier.

Useless = No uses.

Camo = changes the appearance of ship = Use.
