Let's be optimistic on earlier than 6 months!

I believe the OP might be misconstruing the meaning of part of one of his posts which I'm assuming was his first response on the "Trying to be Civily Critical..." thread (and OP please correct me if I'm wrong). Sub was discussing what forms of data we use to quantify change and part of that data is surveys done when people uninstall the game.

There are a number of data points we use to quantify the state of the game, need for change, and overall satisfaction of players. Those surveys are just one of them and used in conjunction with other information such as your feedback. The feedback we read on these forums is absolutely crucial to the success of the game. As a game company it makes very little sense for us to wait until someone uninstalls the game to ask them why they are unhappy. We do have to pair sentiment we see every day with data to ensure we have a full picture, so while we may not be able to rely on people's thoughts alone, they very often point to ar...

In general cruising speed was increased by 35 knots for most aircraft, however IJN, the GZ, and attack aircraft have been increased to 40 knots.

Feel free to check out the Changes to Aircraft Carriers section of the update notes for more details: https://worldofwarships.com/en/news/game-updates/update-084-soviet-battleships/

Really glad to hear that! I'm a little biased since it's my favorite ship but you won't be disappointed!

3 of these points are accurate! The last we did not state but it will definitely take some additional development time to implement alternative methodologies.

As mentioned the new Russian Battleships are designed for medium range fighting and will suffer accuracy wise once you get beyond 12km. Try to stay close and use your larger HP pool to improve your chances of success.

Be sure to check out the recent Dev Blog, but the short version is this was tested and while it did achieve our desired goal we believe this can be done in a different way which provides a different impact to gameplay.

Thank God you do not work in our financial department.

If you think that for the game which is 4 years old and is the main project of our studio, it makes sense to make Tons Of Cash© (on the least popular class in the game, btw) for 1 month at the cost of pissing off everyone for a year, you....kinda don't understand how it works.

Also what's up with unbalanced Russian BB? Any proof that we consistently release lines OP and then nerf it? I kinda fail to see such trends, in many cases, actually, we had to buff new ship lines after a while. Our goal is always make the balance as good as possible, given some limitations of test process.

Finally, "large number of players" did not quit outright or ran to Co-Op. Any "large" number is, well, largely visible, and a lot of developers, from dev team to management, care a lot about player numbers. Or, to put it more diectly, have the audience as one of the most important evaluation metrics. I mea...

It's a one way to look at things.
Another way is this: we have tons of content locked to specific "seasons", so each 2-3 months there is an "update arc" with a lot of cool stuff to get. Those who "wait for Warspite", miss all this, or will find this content much harder to get.

Also, I am not sure that having a reward for new/returning players is "shoveling" and not having exactly the same is "shafting". Maybe it's the cultural things and I do not translate it properly, but I just imagine coming to, let's say, some food delivery, and saying they "shafted" me for not giving me 1st time deal after having 100 meals there..but again, I may be reading too much into it. With all due respect.

Cheers!

Hey Crokodone,

Glad I could help! Yes, those filters can be used to turn off/on camouflages that you don't want to see.

Tech Tree Overview and Ship Highlights

Hey Captains,

With the official release of the new Soviet BBs, I thought it would be a good day to post the tech tree overview and ship highlights. We will go over the basics of the tech tree and some ships that I find to be highlights or high points of the line (this will be my personal preferences).

The personal highlight ships will all be tech tree ships (not everyone has access to all premiums).


This is a generic screenshot of my German tech tree.

Basics of the Tech Tree:

On the left hand side you have the nations that are available in the game. When you click on the nation it will bring you to a screen specifically for that nation. Please keep in mind that some nations currently only have premium ships.


Looking at the tech tree you will see re-searchable ships starting from the left and premium ships on th...

Yes, sorry, I meant exactly "DPS when rippling", not max theoretical DPS.

I hate to say it, dude, but I think I personally brought this feature request from Reddit last year and never thought it may have any negative consequences for anyone...

I think it's very subjective topic, so let's see how feedback goes on this change further on.

Comment

I am thinking about it honestly - making a big CV-rework after action report. But in all fairness, I need more time to formulate it all, and also I would like to see some things currently in development to be done first. Then we will see. But yeah, you pretty much read my mind here - I think such insight might be interesting for some players. Still, it won't help those who simply do not like the changes, because..well, they just don't like them (as unfortunately it is not possible to suit everyone).

Comment

"Most players hate this CV rework" or "I and people around me hate CV rework"? Are you sure you can speak for everyone? I am not, from my experience. Please before saying things like "most" and "everyone", consider this:

People always tend to communicate on the game (or any product) when they are not happy with something. Usually communication means something is wrong, a lot less people take their time to say "hey, good job here", they usually just play/use the product and have fun. I am NOT trying to devalue what we discuss here, but trying to speak for everyone when only a few % of active audience socialize at all is not too objective.


By the way it is a big challenge - to reach the bulk of audience. Even mass polls do not have too good penetration. Again, I'm not saying that content here or on Reddit is irrelevant - it is important, but it does not necessarily represent any majority.


People are naturally resistant to cha...

There is no favoritism here. The delay change was rooted in concerns about CV ability to spot early on in the game and came directly from the communities feedback. It was tested and as our dev blog mentioned, the change really didn't accomplish what we were looking for. There will be additional adjustments as needed (such as changes to AA sector fire), but it needs to be done with relative understanding to how it impacts the game as a whole.

Comment

Also, to everyone here - please let's stop throwing personal insults and accusations towards each other based on the way some of us prefer to click LMB in a video game. Thank you very much!

Heyo Everyone!

Based on some feedback we processed from the first stop of the AAT at New Jersey, we have made a few amendments to the event schedule.

All events are still available just in a slightly different order, with staff adding an extra hour onto their attendance; please review the new schedule here:

Fem,
