On Live Server, Continuous Damage is focused on the LAST plane in a squadron (ie: the plane furthest to the right on the healthbar). This change was implemented in Update 0.8.5 to avoid Continuous Damage being spread across all the available planes and thus not shooting down any planes. Plane losses became much more consistent by focusing fire on the last plane.

The Closed Test keeps the "focuses one plane" functionality, but allows it to be any of the planes in the squadron. The plane could be in the middle of the health bar, or even at the front of the health bar (the "attacking" planes which are all the way on the left).

I do believe planes shot down in the "middle" of the healthbar continue to leave that gap there. Basically, each attacking flight retains its squadron integrity so later flights for followup attacks may have some holes in them. The option to send back a squadron that has taken losses would be taken care of by holding F to send...

Our PTS 0.11.11 Part 1 article has been updated with some additional earnings!

A new Mission can provide some Camos (or Credits <3)

Sinking 30 enemy ships gives a nice surprise!

Please remember that this is in Closed Test. As a Concept Test, this may or may not move forward depending on the results of the test.

The section you're asking about is here:

The new mechanic can choose any plane within the squadron (as opposed to the current mechanic of always picking the last plane).


The plane that is picked will be focused until shot down or the specific target chosen may change if the planes leave all AA for some time.

The target can be within the Attacking Group (ie: the first planes in the squadron which will shoot).

The section you're asking about is here:

Because any plane can be selected, the planes shot down in the attacking group are not "replenished".

IE: If a Hakuryu is attacking with a squadron of 12 Torpedo Planes and the first plane shot down is in the Attacking Squadro...

Hello, Captains!

A new DevBlog has been posted here: https://blog.worldofwarships.com/blog/395

Please leave any feedback you have here.

Thank you!

Very nice! Use her well <3

Prague might have had the day off? I thought that was Friday, but maybe it's a long weekend?

I'm not up to date on most holidays since I grew up in Customer Service. When you work all the holidays anyway you kinda forget they exist.

The EU office tends to stream on Thursdays, not NA. Our stream schedule is for 5pm CST on Wednesday barring holidays or specific events.

It does look like the LATAM stream took place at 3 CST.

To expand on saturation more extensively: Submarines have a couple key pieces in their 'armor' scheme; the exterior "light hull" (divided into fore end, aft end, and midsection) and the interior "pressure hull". The light hull can saturate and will receive reduced damage once its HP is depleted in each of those three distinct sections. The pressure hull runs nearly the whole length and cannot saturate, but is protected from HE shells by the light hull (since they explode on the exterior). AP that doesn't overpenetrate can continue dealing full damage to the pressure hull even with a saturated light hull. "ASW hits will also deal full damage within their "direct" hit splash range.

At some point in testing they did saturate, but it was removed. HP pools are similar to DDs because submarines take damage much more easily due to splash; since you can land shells in the general area and still do damage, submarines generally take more damage per salvo than DDs simply because you don't have to hit them directly.

I just want to note that submarines do not possess French DD saturation. Direct hits to the submarine midsection will always do 1/3rd damage. Shells that hit water and 'splash' the submarine do saturated damage (1/6), which is where the perception may come from.

Altered Title of thread from: "Let's See If This Gets Deleted" to "YouTube says NO to Subs" to reflect OP.

The recurring missions do also yield Live Server rewards. You can read about that in the article in the Recurring Combat Missions section which is halfway down the page: https://worldofwarships.com/en/news/public-test/public-test-01111/

People commonly talk in terms of how many ships are on a single team, not in terms of how many ships exist in the match.

A "6 Cruiser match" would be in reference to having 6 Cruisers on each side. Saying there was a "12 Cruiser match" would be considered odd as that sounds like either Tier 1 or an all Cruiser match (meaning 24 total).

The term you probably want to use is a "double CV" match. That implies 2 CVs on each team.

The enemy sub may be on the surface. The Sub Surveillance consumable still detects enemy Submarines under the water even while used on the surface.

The consumable shows submarines at Periscope and Maximum depth so you might not be seeing the enemy because of that.
