Our research has shown that after “Situational Awareness”, 60 to 80% of players (depending on the ship and total amount of skill points) choose “Basics of survivability” at Tier I. The “Basics of survivability” skill has been chosen based on analysis of the most popular skills among all players. If the commander has other level 1 skills besides Situation Awareness, they will be reimbursed the price of the Situation Awareness skill (1 point).If Situation Awareness is the only researched level 1 skill of the commander, it will be replaced with the Basics of Survivability skill.This is intended to make the gameplay more enjoyable, as both beginners and more experienced players that would habitually pick the Situation Awareness skill for all their ships can now focus on other skills instead. The rules for compensation are as follows: This should help players see its edge and better plan their actions during the heat of battle.Ī popular skill, Situation Awareness, which activates when your ship has been spotted by enemy ships, is being given to everyone by default and removed from the commander-skills tree. The smokescreen is now displayed on the surface of the water, if the player is within a 2.5 km radius of it. For this reason, we have made a couple of major changes to the visibility system, with the overall objective of making it clearer and more logical for players. The visibility system, spotting ranges, and how exactly smoke screens conceal your movement were difficult for players to to fully understand. To see the old model, move your cursor over the picture. The following ships from the US tech-tree have been remodelled: South Carolina, Arkansas Beta, New York, Colorado, North Carolina, Wyoming, Montana, Iowa, New Mexico, Arizona. Armour interaction with HE fragmentation shells and bombs was not affected.
We have improved the detailing of the bevels and lines of the model, creating additional conditions for AP shells to ricochet in some situations, especially when they hit the bow or stern of the ship. In some cases, this led to a redistribution of the inner part of the ship’s durability points (within a 5% limit). Our goal is to bring the models created at different stages of development up to the same standard of detail.Īs part of Update 0.5.9, the in-game models of both the US Battleships and the British Premium warship HMS Warspite were refined. The patch is scheduled for 28 July and will be applied on the servers from 05:30 CEST until 07:30 CEST (UTC+2) during which the game server will be offline.Īrmour for US Battleships (and Warspite) RevisedĪs part of improving the game, we are continually revising all the armour models within World of Warships.
