World of Warships Dev Tracker

Hey Captains,

With patch this week things have been busy but don't fret, we will get to a new topic soon! I am thinking it will be early map movements and opening battle strategy.

Anything else on this topic would you like to discuss? Early map movements is one of the things I see a lot that has players getting out of position or just getting lost.

Give me your ideas here and I will do the best to cover them soon!

Thanks!

Thanks for the screenshots and WGC report. I'll try to replicate it on my side as well.

As of this morning all Directives should have unlocked and begun providing tokens for completing them. We did call this out in the patch notes so hopefully yesterday was a great opportunity for everyone to get familiar with the new mode.

Hey Paul1224,

When it comes to Tier VIII, there are a few things you need to take into account.

Tier VIII is the most stretched tier in the game, Tier VIIIs have to be able to fill games from Tier VI to Tier X.


There are a decent amount of players that play Tier X, so that draws some Tier VIIIs into those games.


As a Tier VIII you have to change your mindset from being the biggest kid on the playground to the kid that is the friend of the biggest kid on the playground.

In Sub_Octavians Q&A he was asked about Tier VIIIs and this is what he said:

Question 7: Is WG happy with the effect that CVs have on tier VIII MM?

Sub_Octavian's answer: Tier VIII vs Tier X experience is roughly the same regardless of class. Some globacl MM improvements are being worked on but no CV specific changes are currently planned. We want to improve the experience for Tier VIII in ge...

Hey Burnsy, first thank you very much for taking the time to write this up. It's incredibly constructive and I appreciate it.

The AA change yesterday will certainly require an adjustment of tactics for anyone who hits a flak cloud or lingers a little too long in general AA range. Previous to this there were situations where a CV could make an entire pass and due to DPS distribution easily heal up and return most if not all their squadron safely. From a surface ship side this is not a really ideal experience.

As you said, Saipan does have a lower squadron size (compared to Midway) so the loss of a plane will hit you harder than some of the other CVs. This was a general change made that impacts all CVs and we aren't ignoring that, but right now we are monitoring CV and surface ship performance. Other regions are just getting the update today and it's just too early to tell how this change impacts the overall balance. This of course isn't to say ...

Hey JEFFREY_LEI,

The Slava is a tier X Soviet BB that is currently in testing.

This is a great place to go if you are wondering about upcoming ships, mechanic changes or anything else that might be coming to World of Warships.

CSS Tips and Tricks

Usage of style objects (similar to css-classes)

Create style objects:

(def css SomeStyleObject()
(position = "absolute")
(width = 100%)
(height = 100%)
)

Invoke:

(block
(class SomeStyleObject)
)

Example of implementing the Hover pseudo class

The Hover is triggered when you point to the cursor to a specific area, and not the entire block

If you need to set a certain area as hitArea, add a block whose name='hoverArea' and pass the block's name to the hitArea property of the parentElement element with the help of the $target object.

Styles change depending on the screen's width/height (similar to media requests)

Hey folks, today's AA change did make some changes which we are actively watching data and reading your sentiment for. We want to hear your experiences (positive or negative) from both a CV and surface ship perspective.

For CVs, if you are effectively dodging flak clouds, your attacks should still be dealing similar first strike damage. You cannot however loiter in AA range and will need to be a little more wary of ships with stronger AA in close proximity. This extra time in that range will more consistently destroy your squadron and require an adjustment in tactics.

Again balance is ongoing but we're watching and listening!

Also folks let's please keep feedback constructive. If you have a specific experience please share it.

Force close the client using the task manager and restart it.

It should resume progress of the download from where you left off.

If you're still having problems, reach out to the Support team and be prepared to provide a WG Check report.

https://na.wargaming.net/support/en/products/wows/help/17361/17363/24589/

It's Day 1 and folks are excited, but this event will last throughout the entire update so there will be plenty of time to join in.

Other players have also reported not hearing their own music when selected in the settings.

Will test this after checking the ship names reports.

Can you guys do the following?

1. Run a check and repair of the game client

2. Relaunch the game and check in both Random and Savage Battles

3. If problem persists, run a WG Check report.

Hey Lampshade,

The Georgia is will be leaving the premium shop in the near future but will remain in the Armory.

Hey Douglas,

These are both viable options. I would probably go for Superintendent but that is just me. The extra heal can work wonders when you are done with the brawl (if you survive) =).

You can still select the skill, it is just showing you skills that are recommended for a certain type of ship.

Hey Captains,

Thank you for letting us know about this, this will be investigated.

Captains, if you can please provide your WGcheck to me in a PM to help us further it would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Capitães, tivemos alguns imprevistos, e teremos que adiar o início da corrida da temporada de Classificação.
