[2019] Why is PT server not used anymore

Hey folks, just as a reminder our testing process is vital to World of Warships and balancing various features and ships. For those of you unaware however, here is how our process works:

Internal Testing - This is where the Development team tests things that are very early in development and before player testing becomes necessary.


Super Test - This is early testing done by members of our community which focuses on both short term and long term upcoming content. We gather feedback/data and make changes where needed before pushing changes relevant to the next update to Public Test.


Public Test - This is a Test server available to everyone for public testing. While many times information (statistics or descriptions) are already available from Community Contributors, Dev Blogs, etc... many times stats have changed by the time things make it to PT. This is where players and our staff spend a good portion of our time playing and testing to ensure things are prepared for the update.

In short if you do play on PT we really do appreciate it, it's so vital to ensure we have smooth updates.
