Matchmaking was changed in 0.8.7. Single tier existed earlier than that, but with those improvements, it became more commonplace.

We'v already fixed the range issue, though.

We did think it through, though.
I may as well quote myself why:

So, for active player getting double bonus shouldn't take too much time, and shouldn't be that hard, given notice beforehand, but there's also an alternative way:
When new year event starts - you can get snowflake reward and reset the line after that if you want to, and to receive a double bonus You'll have until mid-February.

We released rough schedule for clan and ranked battles, but havent made any announcements about more upcoming lines since UK CA.

We'll announce that later. And we'll talk about the coupon.

German unique commander Günther Lütjens

Soon we will be testing a unique German commander, so today we are ready to reveal the current concept of his talents and improved skills:

Secondary Armament Expert: after receiving 100 "Secondary hits" ribbons, the reload time of secondary armament is reduced by 15%. Talent can be activated once per battle.



Iron Strike: after receiving 140 "Main battery hits" ribbons, the reload time of the main battery is reduced by 7.5%. Talent can be activated once per battle.




Exemplary Reconnaissance: after receiving 3 "Spotted " ribbons, the ship's hit points are partially restored. The talent restores 300 hit points per second. Its duration in seconds is equal to the ship's tier (e.g. Tier V = 5 seconds; Tier VI = 6 seconds; etc.). This talent can be activated repeatedly.



Air superiority: After receiving 30 "Rocket hits", "Bomb hi...

Both infernal camo's should be in your inventory.
First of all, try relaunching the game client, and if it doesn't appear - show with screens that it's not an option.

Before that, for example, we have a case with USS Kearsage, which isn't named after the state, but after a different ship, named after a mountain.

Yeah, it was me who put a confusing title first.

And it turned out, we had this in the game since early-early alpha.

2 different issues.
The issue with range is being fixed ASAP right now.

That appeared due to direct name transliteration.
UPD. We're aware of this typo and it will be fixed.

Hello Commanders,

We'd like to address the situation with shell tracers.

The display of shell tracers has not changed since the very early stages of World of Warships due to technical limitations. It does not depend on a specific ship, only on a type of the shell. For HE the tracer starts to be displayed from a short distance from the barrel, for AP and SAP - from the barrel.
The former technical limitations are no longer valid, but for now, we can't tell you whether the rendering of tracers will be changed and how. These changes will affect all ships in the game and the interaction between classes. For example, we have concerns that this may affect the combat effectiveness of destroyers firing from smokes. It will take time and probably some additional balance changes to evaluate the consequences of such change from all sides.

Therefore, we want to thank you for drawing our attention to this situation, but we cannot promise y...

Just in case - this solution was applicable only to 0.8.8.1 update.
If you have "red skies" on certain now - it's due to outdated mods with 99% percent certainty. Modstation should already be updated.

Getting in-game resources isn't free, You still spend time to get them and can spend them on different other things - they aren't unlimited. Also, even unrelated coal, doubloons have long been available via in-game activities, but anyway, you don't get those resources for free.

It's in the article.

Thank you for your concern.
We're investigating this right now and will talk about it in further detail soon.
But what can I certainly tell you right now is that it affects a lot of ships, not only Smolensk, and this has been part of game mechanics for a long time.
We should also thank u/leehwongxing - has checked quite a few ships, you can see results of this player investigation on reddit.

First of all, while I know this can be an unpopular opinion, but your experience or experience of players who is visible to you doesn't mean overall experience.

Secondly, the changes are literally are don so with the same combat performance shown, the carriers will earn the same amount of XP as other ship types. Economics shouldn't be used to balance ship's power. The same approach is similar with premiums, btw - we strive to make them similar in power to tech tree ships, instead of making them worse, due to their better earnings.

There are no true credit grinders on T10. Those ships can be okay, but T9 prems generally give more credits.

I don't say that commander is specifically tailored to be optimal for all lines at the same time.
But commanders still give bonuses. For example, Auboyneau can be used on CA or BB lines.

We strived to choose talents and improved skill combination ship classes can benefit from them.
And you can't say with 100% certainty that german CV's won't ever appear in the game.
UPD.
