Both Marbleheads have the same detectability. They just come in different colours.

It's always nice being shown a table where literally the same ship has really different stats as a proof of something being overpovered .
Unless the camo is so important.

It existed, by the way. And used by Japan. With different shells again, though.

She's based Study III 1938 24500t.
Guns are Mark XI with newer shells as specified in that design - original one had problems with accuracy.

50-100% you regulate your own guns. 0-50% your guns and enemy guns have the same setting and are adjusted together.
Have you done rebalancing as was described in the guide? Also, 120mm do have a different sound.

Entire sound engine is new. And we added this extra functions to sliders - before you coundn't separately change gun/engine sounds for yourself and team in any way. So we added this ability for those who wanted more control. Sound setting may improve in the future.

Italian cruisers. Part 2

Update 0.8.10 will continue the Italian update cycle.

The event will consist of directives, a new collection, and Italian cruisers which will be out of early access.

Items of the collection dedicated to the Italian Navy, consisting of 16 elements will only be available in the event's containers. For completing the collection, you will get the new unique Italian commander - Luigi Sansonetti.

The commander has three talents:

A one-time duration increase of consumables after a fixed number of hits to opponents from the main caliber guns;


A one-time increase to the firing range of main caliber guns after the destruction of an enemy;


Increased reload speed of main caliber guns and torpedo tubes after reaching the "High Caliber" achievement.

Please note that the commander is still in development and the exact numbers will be...

When any new system comes there's almost always ironing out period when things are perceived as worse than before, even if they're just different. We'll continue improving the new system because with this we'll be able to provide the best sound possible.
To illustrate why, let's suppose we do the reversion.
To do that we need to stop everything, and begin creating a version with the old system. Because a lot of stuff in connected to the sound system after it's ready that "update with old sound" should go through several rounds of internal testing, public testing, and then released. At least two months have passed and we're back to square one. Or we can just continue improving the current system, and the sound would be much better than before.

Yeah, In my first battle with her after test I easily did 100k damage, so I would disagree with that statement.

British and Commonwealth Warships Camouflage of WW2, volume 2 states that those two octuple pom-poms were added in 1940, with the camouflage Ark Royal has in our game, page 113.
And Skuas were completely removed only in April 41, so the ship state if of late 1940 - early 1941.


We couldn't pass an opportunity to make Ark Royal with Swordfishes as torpedo bombers.


And let me tell you - they're quite good. Yes, they are quite slow compared to other CV, but you have 3 of them in attacking squadron - so more HP per squadron than Furious. And even more, their turns are quite tight, which allows you to easily aim your torps where you want.
Similar stuff with bombers, but they have different bombs, but there are a lot of them. Their main purpose is starting fires, of course.
Furious drops 12 bombs in one attack with 29% fire chance. Ark Royal - 24 bombs with 13.7% fire chance. Yes, Furious bom...

In all cases, or using boosts?

Of course, they can appear, but as T10's are quite popular, we focused our resources for ships that have more demand. When that craving is reasonably satisfied - other ships may appear there. Btw, new lower-tiered reward ships may also be available via other, easier-to-get resources.

Commanders, Update 0.8.8.1, which fixes sound problems, was installed on the game servers. Unfortunately, some players are still having trouble adjusting the sound in our game.

Therefore, we decided to share with you a quick guide to setting up your sound settings:

Step 1: Set all volume sliders to the maximum level.



Step 2: The main volume sliders are located on the left side of the Audio settings window. You should start adjusting these settings only after completing the previous step.

Main volume sliders include:

General volume level - manages all sound in the game;


SFX volume - manages all sounds except music and voice messages.



Step 3: There are several sliders on the right side of the Audio settings window for "fine-tuning" the sound:

Gunfire volume - in the range from 100%...

If you have 5 T10 ships - Research Bureau is opened for you, and you get 10k bonus RB points. Ohio is there.
It's done exactly for the reason there is more easily obtainable content for the player, and RB ships are more of hard-to-get prestige ones.
