[2022] PSA: The PTS is LIVE with the Econ-Camo Separation

Please hop on and check it out!

You can leave your feedback here or in the PTS Feedback Thread!: https://forum.worldofwarships.com/topic/256367-pts-0116-pt-1/

Here's a quick rundown!

Pick a ship and go to the Equipment tab:

Click the "Economic Bonuses" section under the Commander.

-

Right now, the 10% / 10% / 20% is because I had 2 Resource Flags (One as a CC and Another for working with WarGaming)

The "Flag Bonus" is the "For Personal Merits" and is permanent. It's always on <3

-

I can add Bonuses to the various Resource Areas. I'll choose some now...

After choosing the +40% Credits, I'm shown the Total Bonus as +50%.

-

I'll add a Free XP one too...

-

So now it looks like this!

-

If I want to add a "Permanent Economic Bonus" / "Bonus Package", I can click on the Gold Bordered Section...

If I hit yes, I get additional rewards for ALL the categories.

I can mouse over the Resource to see that it's got the Permanent Bonus added in.

-

Lastly, if I have a Tier 1 or 2 Bonus Equipped (Like my +40% Credits one that I'm using), I can use "Auto-Purchase" to buy another Bonus for Doubloons if I run out.

This option DEFAULTS TO OFF <3

-

Now that I've selected everything, back we go to the Equipment screen.

-

Now let's check out the Exterior Tab~

All my Expendable Camos are sorted into:

Permanent (use as much as I want)


Standard (22,500 Credits to buy a use if I run out)


Single-Color (45,000 Credits)


Abstract (75,000 Credits)


Thematic (90,0000 Credits)


and Special (Not purchasable. Only gotten through events/special means!)

and once again, Auto-Purchase defaults to OFF <3

-

So now I can use whatever Economic Bonuses I want while using whatever look I want <3

I don't have the Siegefried to check, but Visual looks should continue to be available.

For the Agir:

Owning the Camo means the Conversion will factor it. You do not need to own the Ship itself. The "Permanent Bonus" will be there when you acquire it just like the Permacamo will be there waiting in the current system.

Can you rephrase your question? What isn't understandable?

If you still have access to the second game, please take a screenshot of the Free XP section on the last page. You'll need to scroll down a bit.

You can see how the +##% adds up to the shown.

You can sell Camouflages in the Inventory:

-

The "Splitting Bonuses" isn't currently on the PTS. I'll put in a question about that.

Interesting. Thanks for the head's up on that.

Can you log out and log back in? If it stays that way, please make a post in https://forum.worldofwarships.com/topic/256365-pts-0116-pt-1-bug-reports/

The PTS rewards you 60 Containers for every Battle played. 10 Containers of 6 different types.

As a reminder, Tier 3 Bonuses are:

+160% Credits


+800% Ship XP


+800% Commander XP


+2400% Free XP

-

The More Economic Bonuses container gives 3 items

1 is always Bonuses


2nd is sometimes Bonuses


I didn't ever see a container that was all three.



If you got a Tier 1 Bonus, you would get 3 of them


If you got a Tier 2 bonus, you would get 2 of them

-

As for Supercontainers:

Tier 2 Bonuses come in quantities of 50


Tier 3 Bonuses come in quantities of 25.

This was pretty cool as I got 25 x +800% Ship XP Bonuses. Currently +800% Ship XP isn't available even with Flag Stacking.

-

The Premium Containers like Distant Voyages or Italian Destroyers

Distant Voyages currently gives 14 Dragon Flags

On PTS they give 8 x Tier 3 Bonuses

Premium Italian Destroyer currently gives 10 Dragon Flags

On PTS they give 7 x Tier 3 Bonuses

So Tier 3 Bonuses look to be available similarly to how Dragon Flags are now

The Exterior Tab is quite open, but it's open to allow a good view of your ship.

Typically Credits was the third item. The most often combo was:

50,000 Credits


500 Free XP


3 x Tier 1 Expendable Bonus

The Tier 3 Bonuses feel surprisingly available, so I do think that will help a lot, yes.

I don't have information on the availability of Tier 4 Bonuses yet. I know they are supposed to be rare so I expect Events or Special Missions sort of availability. When I have more information, I'll certainly share it.

Asym, the new system is literally similar to the old system.

Currently you can equip Economic Signals and get more stuff. There are 4 signals, one for each Resource.

In the future, you can equip Expendable Bonuses and get more stuff. There are 4 Bonus Types, one for each Resource.

-

If you don't equip Signals now, you will never run out of what you don't use. If you want to hold onto Bonuses that you never actually use, you will absolutely be able to keep them around sitting in a corner doing nothing.

PTS. Live Server does not reward players with 60 Containers per battle played.

The More Signals Container now gives out Combat Signals. For those that chew through Signals it looks very nice. I think it was 4 Signals per slot so like 12 per Container.

Camo was... 1 Camo each for 2 slots, and then either a Bonus or something else as the third.

-

In general, please hop onto the PTS and check it out. We definitely want feedback and for folks to get their hands on it.

Correct. Also because the new Container system is implemented. You can pick which Containers you want to open from a menu. It shows you how many Containers you have of different types and allows you to open specific ones or "Open All" for a single group at a time.

There are many mission on the PTS that offer lots of Containers to play around with.

It's covered in the first post of this thread:

The PTS server copies your main account and converts it.

It looks like ships on live that have Signals activated carry over to have similar level Bonuses equipped on PTS. For ships with no Signals equipped on live, they do not have Bonuses activated.

Thank you for saying so!
When Ahskance and I took the job we determined ourselves to give the forums as much attention as we could and answer questions to the best of our ability.

We really appreciate the kind words

If you have turned something on, it stays on.

If you have not turned something on, it stays off.

-

The ships with no Signals applied on Live have no Bonuses set as active on the PTS.

Please reach out to Customer Support. That sounds very strange and I'm sure they'd like to look into that.

Yes. The Region is added to the name on the PTS.

Doesn't seem to be implemented yet. I have a question in on that.

At this time we have no intention on offering merging. On the PTS Tier 1 and 2 Bonuses are available in Daily Containers. Tier 3 Bonuses look to be available in the places where Dragon Flags are available.

The "Permanent Bonus" will have the additional +30% Credits baked into it. For those with the Combat Mission now, they will have +40% Credits instead of +10% Credits.

I recently did a breakdown on the Stars and Stripes camo. Let me find it...

Here it is: https://forum.worldofwarships.com/topic/256871-can-anyone-explain-how-the-expendable-camo-conversion-works/?do=findComment&comment=5784372

This shows a breakdown of 1 camo vs 100 camos. It describes the process used.
