On NA, supposedly not, but who knows? Every news post has at least one error on it somewhere, it's just a matter of finding them.

Will there be a wipe between launch and OBT?

I am confused. From what I read 0.4.0 isn't OBT, it's 'common test' whatever that means. Also there's no word on if any progress made between 0.4.0 and OBT will be wiped. Anyone know?

e: Apparently it's 'head start'? http://forum.worldofwarships.com/in...154#entry888154

From my reading, this is the last wipe. Open beta will start a few days after 0.4.0 release/wipe.

Obviously, you get all your gold/premium stuff back at the wipe.

They did the same thing after alpha, the closed beta version ran for a week or so but only alpha players could log in.

That's basically what they did with closed beta too, except the only ways to get in (if you weren't already) were watching hype streams nonstop or buying in to an alleged beta.

I'm interested in hearing this, because at some point I heard that I might be able to use my WoT gold on WoWS. The WoWS bucks themselves do seem to be game-locked, though.

If you look in the premium store, you can see gold + credit packages that say "only for tanks" or "only for warplanes" or "only for warships", and that's where some of the confusion comes from - the gold in the packs is shared across the accounts, but the credits will go into the particular game only

Gotcha, thanks.

Also, drat the Murmansk owns bones. Its really fun and the 8km 2x3 torp launchers are hilariously good at level 5. Just had a great game that I capped off by rushing an enemy Colorado, firing one side of my torps at him from 4km, then going hard to starboard and firing off the other side. :byewhore:

Well, I've only played a few more matches recently, but I'm very happy seeing BBs everywhere. It makes it easier playing a DD. Hopefully that stays the trend, because I hate having matches where half my team are DDs and the enemy team is chock full of US CAs ready to blow us out of the water with a single volley.

I'm going to buy 2 of everything, have it all gold plated, and lord it over all the poor peasants.

Of course I'm not going to tell them my piles of money came from having no life and spending way too much time driving tanks.

If I could somehow sell off all my gold consumables in tanks (for gold) I'd probably be a damned millionaire.

Also, in order to research the next ship do you have to play the ship that precedes it exclusively?

The tier 8 Atago (its basically a Myoko with a slower RoF and torpedo launchers that have a 45 degree angle launch aim, aka you can fire them without having to totally show your broadside). It looks really solid.

Played it during the common test. It felt a lot better than the Myoko.

If spending a buck to get a Murmansk makes me dregs, so be it :colbert: (also yes)

You do accrue freexp in small amounts from every battle which can be used on anything for any ship, but otherwise yes

Wargaming being wargaming, a bunch of ships have changed class names over beta. In this instance it's because, even though the class was called Takao, the Atago was commissioned first.

Just tried out botes. Trip report: It is fun and cool, but I have not figured out all the buttans yet. How do you stop a fire? With 'R' for repairs? Or is that a separate thing?

R for repairs stops fires and flooding, and instantly repairs damaged (but not destroyed) systems like turrets, rudder, torpedoes, etc

If you catch on fire while repairs are on cooldown, you have to wait for your seamen to stop the burning on their own
