0.5.6 завтра?

[anonym_zZxkRkj66HUJ]

При условии, что они вкачаны в ПВО. И тоже не проблема - облетел по дуге и скушал еду.

Там нямка только одна - советсткие эсминцы и японские, у американцев есть заградка. К 9-10 японским ЛК приходит понимание, что у них фиговое ПВО, поэтому ходят хвостиком с крейсерами, тем более расстояние боя позволяет им быть на одной линии.

 

Еды на 9-10 нету, в отличии от 4 АВ, где всё еда.

 

Едой я считаю абсолютно беспомощные цели чисто по роли в бою. Советы с японцами, последние особенно с 0.5.6, для эффективной атаки вынуждены действовать в первой линии, а там ни крейсер заградкой не поможет, ни у себя её нету, только на свой авианосец рассчитывать, но если у тебя в союзниках Мидвей ударник, а у противника универсал, твой от налёта скорее всего защитить не сможет.

Для порчдко. Не толькож япам с 8 километровыми играть.

+10 узлов скорости и не вопрос

Хоть надейся хоть нет, а будет на днях, а тут надо еще на стоковом Хиппере корпус "B" выкачать успеть, чтобы "C" открылся автоматом

Видишь ли, так как моя статка закрыта, то ты можешь только обзываться днарём. )

 

 

Так я знаю что ты днарь. Стыдно перед однокласниками-вот ты ее и звакрыл. Какие еще причины.

[TreshRush]

ПВО можно было апнуть только амаги я нагато,у американских линкоров и так ПВО сильное. У крейсеров заградки есть голдовые.

[anonym_VeKMo3JkMdMz]

Нусс ав смело могут не входить больше в бой. А Айова теперь отличный корабль, огромный крейсер с 33 узлами, точными орудиями и дальностью 24км

 

Откуда 33 узла?

• Her maximum speed was increased by 2.2 knots (26.6 knots -> 28.8 knots)

Хвостиком сильно не походишь, если у КР самих нет цели тебя прикрывать. Скорость и манёвренность не позволяет, плюс нужно свои манёвры ещё совершать. В итоге, недосягаем для АВ бываешь крайне ситуативно, и под прикрытием одной только дальней ауры одного крейсера тебя спокойно АВ разбирает. КР ещё и заградку может проигнорировать, занятый своими делами в прицеле.

 

[Starhound]

Что-то мне кажется, что владельцы японцев пересядут на Гиринга, там торпеды никто не трогал.

 

Такое вещали с выходом прошлого патча когда нерфанули, что то гирингов не прибавилось. Но шим стало меньше это точно, по боям вчера и в выходные обычно одна шима в бою была, а вот кагер и фубуки полные щи.

Да проси нерфа торпед Хабаровска еще для справедливости.

Так его вкачать-то надо не всё сразу, но популяция явно возрастёт.

Ну дык да, че тогда панику разводить, к тому же не факт что за это время что то не изменится. С каждым патчем ребалансы. А Амер эмы и так страдали очень долго, их и так очень долгое время не трогали. А если и им торпы резануть то зачем тогда вообще эсминцы в игре будут. Шимы вон вообще на бой один стал, добились своего.

У КР и не будет желания прикрывать ЛК надраивающего синюю линию. Просто потому что там ему маневрировть негде, а жить хочется.

Это всё верно, и я ни в коем случае не обвиняю КР, как и вообще никакой класс, кроме хайлевел АВ.

Просто по итогам выходит, что имеем то, что имеем.

Я не думаю. Стиль игры на них очень и очень разный

[konocrad]

да уже новость висит

[bulbozaurus]

If the AA/secondary guns are off at the moment the player designates a priority target (default Ctrl+LMB), the AA/secondary guns will open fire
Вот объясните мне, пожалуйста, кто это просил? Написано "на основе фидбэка". Вот взять и на ровном месте сделать неудобство эсминцу. Повесить приоритет - это задача, которую эсминец делает ещё за несколько километров до возможного обнаружения самолётом, а огонь открывает только если все таки попал в засвет. Но, видимо, рекреационные игроки наши забывают Р нажать. ((

 

Хм, интересно, в новостях на русском нет этого пункта. Надеюсь что все же убрали из патча.

[CTapbILI_Enot]

Тут на форуме приоритетного региона выложили уже патчноут и дату запуска патча 0.5.6..

http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/80610-056-patchnotes-and-downtime/

 

The update is scheduled for May 25 and will be applied on the servers from 03:00 PT/  06:00 ET until 05:30 PT/  08:30 ET  during which the game server will be offline.

 

 

Camo up!

New permanent camouflage patterns have been added for the following ships: Yorck, Hiryu, Roon, Hatsuharu, Myoko, Shchors, Dmitri Donskoi, Kiev, Ranger, New York and Cleveland.

 

Premium Ships

The following Premium Ships have been added, purchasable for Doubloons in the Port. The list will be extended with future releases. The Premium ships released for 0.5.6 are: Tachibana, Texas, Diana, Molotov, Mikhail Kutuzov, Emden, Tirpitz, Campbeltown, Warspite, Blyskawica.

We have also added the US tier VII Premium cruiser Indianapolis for testing by Wargaming employees and Supertesters. This ship is not yet available for purchase, but you may encounter it in battle.

 

Ship Rebalancing

Major levelling up changes were made to several ships that received new or overhauled hulls. Moreover, many ships underwent slight modifications in their performance characteristics and configurations of their AA and/or secondary guns. We have decided to spell out all the details for game balance changes below.

• 6х2 105mm L/65 Dop. L. C/31: the average AA damage within the 4.5km AA engagement area radius did not change and is equal to 100 points
• We added a subsequently researched hull © with the bow and more powerful set of AA defenses in comparison to hull (B):
• 4х2 20mm Flakzwilling 38, 6x4 20mm Flakvierling 38 (engagement area radius: 2km; average damage: 53 points)
• 18x1 40mm L/56 Flak 28 (engagement area radius: 3.5km; average damage: 135 points)
• 6x2 105mm L/65 Dop. L. C/31 (engagement area radius: 4.5km; average damage: 100 points)
• Hulls (B) and ©: the current 203mm Spr.gr. L/4.7 Bdz HE shell type has been replaced by the 203mm Spr.gr. L/4.7 Kz HE shell type. As a result, maximum HE shell damage has increased by 200 points (from 2300 to 2500), and the chances of causing fire have increased by 2% (from 11% to 13%)
• If hull (B) had been researched before the update was released, the new hull © will be researched without any XP cost.
• If hull (B) had been purchased before the update was released and the ship is still available in the Port, the new hull © will be researched and added for mounting without any cost in XP and Credits.
• Hull research and purchase prices have been rebalanced in a way that the overall price of the ship research does not change

Roon

Top hull received significantly reinforced AA defenses. Besides this, she received a new more powerful HE shell type.

• Hull (A): three 20mm Flak 38 AA mounts were added, and three 37mm Flak LM/42 mounts were removed. As a result, the average AA damage within the 2km AA engagement area radius increased by 9 points (from 21 to 30 points), and the average AA damage within the 3.5km AA engagement area radius decreased by 31 points (from 148 to 117 points)
• The current 203mm Spr.gr. L/4.7 Bdz HE shell type has been replaced by the 203mm Spr.gr. L/4.7 Kz HE shell type. As a result, maximum HE shell damage has increased by 200 points (from 2300 to 2500), and the chances of causing fire have increased by 2% (from 11% to 13%)

• We extended the close range firing sectors of her main guns
• Her set of AA defenses was altered - the average AA damage was slightly decreased:
• 4х2 20mm Flakzwilling 38, 9x4 20mm Flakvierling 38: the average AA damage within the 2km AA engagement area radius decreased by 5 points (from 77 to 72 points)

• With the more powerful HE shell type, she will have better performance in encounters with enemy destroyers. AA defenses that have been showing exceeding effectiveness have been slightly weakened, in regards to all the other advantages of the ship

Tirpitz

AA defenses were slightly improved.

• The 2x4 20mm Flakvierling 38 AA mount on top of the main turret that was previously unused is now working. As a result, the average AA damage within the 2km AA engagement area radius has increased by 6 points (from 78 to 84 points)
• Aiming angles of torpedo tubes were readjusted for both sides of the ship. For the port side, the torpedo launch sector was moved one degree towards the bow. For the starboard side, the torpedo launch sector width was extended by one degree
• Additional AA defenses can now be mounted on the main turrets, because the technology required for this has become available in the game.

Furutaka

Performance characteristics were improved for the top hull.

• Hull © was replaced by the new one, with improved performance characteristics:
• Her main guns were reinforced: now the ship is equipped with three twin main turrets (3х2) instead of the previous 6х1 arrangement. Now her new twin main turrets are arranged in a more reasonable and conventional way (two forward turrets and one aft turret) and have higher traverse speed
• Her torpedo tubes were reinforced: 2х4 instead of the previous 2х3 configuration. The new torpedo tubes reload slower, but they can launch one extra torpedo in each torpedo salvo
• New set of AA defenses: 2х2 13mm/76 Type93 Twin, 4x2 25mm/60 Type96 Twin mod. 1, and 4х1 120mm/40 10th Year Type mod. B2/C:
• The AA damage within the 1km AA engagement area radius was nullified (3 -> 0 points)
• The average AA damage within the 1.2km AA engagement area did not change (7 points)
• The average AA damage within the 3.1km AA engagement area was added (0 -> 20 points)
• The average AA damage within the 4.5km AA engagement area radius increased by 10 points (from 10 to 20 points)
• Hull (В): rudder deflection speed and amount of XP now correspond with hull ©

The hull will now reflect the landmark modernisation of the ship when she had her main gun turrets upgraded. By making this change, we moved the ship a bit closer to later-period Japanese heavy cruisers to better prepare the player for a change in battle tactics.

Myogi

AA defenses were reinforced for the top hull.

• Hull ©: 4х4 12mm/62 "HI" Type and 4х2 40mm "HI" Type91 AA mounts were replaced with 8х2 25mm/60 Type96 Twin mod. 1 mounts. As a result, her average AA damage within the 1.2km AA engagement area radius (8 points) and the 2km radius (32 points) was transferred to the 3.1km AA engagement area radius (40 points). Consequently, the total average damage of her AA guns remained unchanged but their firing range has increased.

Fuso

AA defenses were reinforced for the top hull.

• Hull ©: All types of 13mm/76 Type 93 AA mounts whose firing range was 1.2km were replaced with additional 10x1 25mm/60 Type96 mod. 1 plus 8x2 25mm/60 Type96 Twin mod. 1 mounts. As a result, her average AA damage within the 1.3km AA engagement area radius (46 points) was nullified, but her average AA damage within the 3.1km AA engagement area radius has increased by 58 points (from 23 to 81 points). Consequently, both the average damage and the firing range of her AA guns were increased.

Nagato

AA defenses were significantly reinforced for the top hull.

• Hull ©: we added 24х1 25mm/60 Type96 mod. 1, 8х2 25mm/60 Type96 Twin mod. 1, and 2х3 25mm/60 Type96 Triple mod. 1 AA mounts. As a result, her average AA damage within the 3.1km AA engagement area radius increased by 95 points (from 93 to 188 points)
• Hulls (B) and ©: range finders were added on top of the second and third main turrets.

Amagi

AA defenses were reinforced for the top hull. The ship's secondary guns were also improved.

• Hull ©: 25mm/60 Type96 Twin mod. 1 AA mounts were replaced with 25mm/60 Type96 Triple mod. 1 mounts. As a result, the average AA damage within the 3.1km AA engagement area radius has increased by 26 points (from 189 to 215 points)
• Firing range of her secondary guns was increased by 0.5km (from 4.5km to 5km)

Fubuki, Kagero, Shimakaze

The range of the torpedoes was generally reduced. To prevent the "torpedo spam" situations in battles and encourage players who prefer high-tier Japanese destroyers to switch to a more aggressive gameplay style, we also removed some torpedo types, whose range was excessive, from the modules available for these destroyers.

• Fubuki: Type 90 mod 1 torpedoes were removed
• Kagero: Type 93 mod 1 torpedoes were removed
• Shimakaze: Type 93 mod 1 torpedoes were removed
• The research and purchase costs for the remaining torpedo types were adjusted to keep the total cost in XP and Credits unchanged. Players will receive compensation for the removed torpedo types

Katori

Increased survivability of her main guns.

• Endurance of the turrets increased 1.5 times

Kuma

Reinforced AA defenses for her top hull. The AA defense capabilities were reinforced to improve the ship's balancing against other tier IV cruisers.

• Hull (B): The 2х1 7.7mm/80 Type90 AA mounts were replaced with 2х1 13mm/76 Type93 AA mounts, and 6х2 25mm/60 Type96 Twin mod.1 AA mounts were added.
• Average AA damage within the 1km AA engagement area radius was nullified (from 3 to 0 points)
• Average AA damage within the 1.2km AA engagement area was added (from 0 to 5 points)
• Average AA damage within the 3.1km AA engagement area radius increased by 20 points (from 10 to 30 points)

Aoba

We increased her survivability and reinforced her AA defenses. The increase in performance characteristics is intended to show the qualitative difference between Aoba and her predecessor in the ship branch (Furutaka)

• Hulls (A) and (B): The 4х1 120mm/40 10th Year Type mod. B2 AA mounts were replaced with 4х1 120mm/40 10th Year Type mod. B2/C mounts. As a result, the average AA damage within the 4.5km AA engagement area radius has increased by 10 points (from 10 to 20 points)
• Hull (A): the ship's HP was increased by 4,200 points (from 26,300 to 30,500)
• Hull (B): the ship's HP was increased by 1,400 points (from 30,500 to 31,900)

For all Commanders who have specialisation in the affected ships, players will have the possibility to redistribute skill points of such Commanders for free

 

Sound Effects/Music

• Added music tracks to the "Yokosuka" Port
• Enhanced the overall sound design of the game. The improvements were made for shot sounds at low sound settings, sounds played when the camera is tracking shells/torpedoes after firing, sounds played when the camera is tracking air squadrons, AA gun sounds for the guns included in the medium AA engagement area, and ship destruction sounds
• Shot sounds were reworked to achieve a cleaner sound without overloading the audio system
• We changed the way musical tracks are stored. This will reduce the size of updates related to the game's soundtrack

 

Interface Overhaul

In Update 0.5.6, we introduced an important interface improvement: fully overhauled post-battle statistics. Now players will be able to see detailed information about their battle results and interactions with other players.

• We added information about the total damage caused and received in battle to the "Personal Score" tab
• The Detailed Report tab was fully reworked. Now players will be able to see detailed information about the damage caused to each enemy ship, including incapacitated modules. The information about the damage caused and received in battle (broken down by damage type) will now be displayed with more detail. Moreover, this tab will now include information about the player's "Team Killer" status and the number of battles required for this status to be removed
• The economical information has been moved to a separate tab named "Credits and XP." This tab will include detailed information about the player's earnings and expenses, including all active XP and Credit modifiers. We hope that with this tab, the game's economy model will be more transparent and understandable to players.

The minimap has been extensively reworked to make it more informative.

• Now the bisecting line will be displayed on the "spotting cone" to help the player stay more aware of their ship's direction
• We added an icon that will be displayed on the minimap when the corresponding enemy target is locked
• Now players will be able to set autopilot waypoints directly on the minimap when playing in aircraft carriers

Moreover, players will be able to customise the display of additional information on the minimap:

• "Circles" showing the detectability range by sea and by air. The radius of these circles will dynamically change depending on various modifiers (for example, after firing a shot from the main guns)
• "Circles" showing firing ranges for main guns, secondary guns, AA guns, and torpedoes
• Markers on the minimap showing where an enemy ship was last spotted

Improvements were made to other parts of the interface as well: we implemented a lot of minor yet very useful tweaks based on feedback from players.

• If the AA/secondary guns are off at the moment the player designates a priority target (default Ctrl+LMB), the AA/secondary guns will open fire
• In case the player causes damage to an ally, a warning notice will appear in the chat
• When in Spectator mode, hints will disappear after the first click on them
• From now on, once a player spawns in a battle, they will see the chat history for that particular battle
• The display of the distance to a catapult-launched aircraft has been enabled
• To help players better understand the main gun ballistics and evaluate the ability of the shell to hit the target, an in-game indicator will appear whenever a player is likely to hit the terrain

We fixed a bug that caused main gun shells to hit the landscape due to incorrect operation of the targeting system. Previously, when a player was aiming at a target that was behind the mountains/island, the system wouldn't always "understand" their intentions correctly and sometimes the effective aim point was placed on the mountain/island rather than on the hypothetical course of the target

• When hovering over a ship's XP bar, a hint will pop up showing the ship's performance characteristics, including updated information on the state of that ship's AA defense/secondary guns
• Enhanced the visual display of damaged torpedo mounts on a ship's dynamic icon in artillery firing modes and the torpedo launch mode. A player will now be able to see the current condition of their ship's armament
• The starting position of the camera in a battle may now be configured in the Settings
• Experience and Credit modifiers display has been changed from "x1.5" to "50%" for unification purposes

 

Economics

To make the in-game economy more straightforward and suitable for display in the new post-battle results interface, the calculation scheme has been slightly reworked. Final results may sometimes differ slightly from the previous values due to rounding. Let's see how it works:

• A player gets 1,000 XP. They won the battle, had a Premium Account and had an "Equal Speed Charlie London" signal (+50% XP per battle) mounted on their ship.
  • PREVIOUSLY:[base XP] х 1.5 for a victory x 1.5 for Premium Account х (1 +0.5 for using the Equal Speed Charlie London signal) = 1,000 x 1.5 x 1.5 x 1.5 = 3,375.
  • NOW:([base XP] х 1.5 for a victory x 1.5 for Premium Account) + modifiers to be applied to XP earned = 2,250(1,000 x 1.5 х 1.5) + 1,125(2,250 х 0.5) = 3,375.

Adjusted the selling price in Credits for the following Premium ships:

• Arkansas Beta: from 375,000 to 2,137,500
• Albany: from 375,000 to 1,162,500
• Diana and Diana Lima: from 375,000 to 1,237,500
• Iwaki Alpha: from 375,000 to 1,987,500
• Tachibana: from 375,000 to 712,500
• Kamikaze: from 3,750,000 to 1,762,500
• Kamikaze R: from 3,750,000 to 3,000,000

 

Game Maps and Game Modes

• Added a new map, "Okinawa," for tier VII-X battles. The map was created based on the real-life location. Get ready for battles in Domination mode amid picturesque islands and in open water!
• Added a new map, "Estuary," that will be accessible for tier VII-IX ships in Domination and Standard Battle modes. Mountain ranges make artillery battles in the centre of the map trickier, but also provide opportunities with extensive pits and depressions in the terrain which provide certain areas with a line of fire
• Added a new map, "Neighbors," for tier V-X  battleships, cruisers and destroyers and tier VI-IX aircraft carriers . Battles will take place in Domination and Standard Battle modes in the fictional waters somewhere between the shores of England and occupied France. The map has an interesting feature that makes the opposing teams spawn close to their Naval Installations
• Added a new map, "New Land," that will be accessible for tier I-III ships in Domination and Standard Battle game modes. The map is small and intended for dynamic battles at lower tiers. It is dotted with icebergs and ideal for combat with lots of movement
• On the "North" map, we removed a tiny island in the G9 square because it hampered ship movement while not serving any tactical purpose
•  Maps "North" and "Northern Lights" are now available for tier VI-X ships

 

Graphics

• Reworked camouflage implementation: camouflage is now applied to secondary battery mounts to give the ship model a more natural look
• Reduced the "Z-fighting effect" for objects located at a considerable distance from the player. This effect produced a visual jittering of islands and other objects
• Enhanced ship destruction scenarios to increase in-game diversity and make it more atmospheric
• Now upon the first launch on 32-bit operating systems, the texture quality settings will be automatically set to "Low," regardless of the OS version

 

Teamkilling Prevention Improvements

The unsportsmanlike conduct report system that has long been part of the game was not always capable of coping with new challenges. With the release of the game, purposeful killing of teammates and friendly fire have become way too common, and the previous settings of the penalty system ceased to be efficient enough to counter the teamkillers. We believe that the new changes will tame the worst offenders and at the same time provide better protection for fair players.

• We lowered the threshold for obtaining 'Teamkiller' status. Now, even minor damage to an allied ship will result in the offender receiving this dishonourable status
• The 'Teamkiller' status now takes into account allied aircraft destroyed in an Air Squadron Assault, launched by pressing [Alt], as well as damage to allies from fire and flooding
• Compensation for damage caused by allies will cover the full cost of ship repairs, irrespective of how many Credits the offender earns in the corresponding battle. Please note that a fixed portion of the cost of ship servicing and the cost of ammunition will not be compensated
• The more often a player breaks the rules of the game and gets the "Teamkiller" status, the more battles they will need to fight without violations in order to return to "normal" status
• Regular offenders who damage allies will be subject to a special teamkill penalty calculation scheme. Under that scheme, the amount of damage they inflicted on an ally will be reduced by 90% while the return damage to the offender's own ship will be increased by more than 100% of its initial amount

The penalty mechanics have been reworked:

• PREVIOUSLY: Penalties for damage caused to allies used to be applied to the amount of XP determined with the use of modifiers, including Premium Account
• NOW: Penalties for damage caused to allies are applied to the final XP value determined after all of the modifiers have been applied
• That way players with Premium accounts, signals and other boosters will be receiving similar fines to players without the listed modifiers

 

Introductory Mission

• Allied ships will no longer open fire from secondary guns if the player's ship crosses their aiming line
• Fixed a bug that caused hints regarding movement and fire extinguishing to continuously appear on the screen

 

Other Changes

Fixed the following bugs and issues:

• The "Survivability expert" skill sometimes led to a reduction of torpedo damage

• Special event notifications remained in the client, even after the event was over
• A battle pop-up did not display the amount of remaining equipment

• Display of the torpedo hull when aircraft are approaching for attack
• It was possible to call a compact list of the carousel without selecting the compact list option
• Fixed a bug that caused camouflage disappearance at low graphics settings
• Fighter air group weapons load displays when a player received the Teamkiller status
• Displaying a ship that needs repairing in port
• Issue with flashing shallows on some maps when lifting the camera
• Recharge speed is now displayed in the performance characteristics as close as one decimal place
• Fixed a bug for some configurations that caused a black screen at the beginning of the battle
• Turret rotation angle display after reconnecting to the server
• Disabled the possibility of moving the discharge point for squadrons after the start of the attack
• An empty list of servers upon the launch of the client
• Assorted icons in the Help window have been updated
• Incorrect notification sound and animation when attacking the last squadron of aircraft
• Incorrect working of the secondary armament at shorter distances
• Emergency shutdown of the client after reconnecting to the server when the ship had been sunk
