Dear Legends! We are starting the distribution of codes among you (Xbox only for now), and will continue the procedure during the coming days. Tomorrow, July 13th (yes, Friday 13th!) the first small group will receive theirs. Please don't lose your bearings if you didn't get into the first group, as we will be adding more and more people with each couple of sessions, and of course, announce the fact. Most of you will receive the codes through email (address associated with your Xbox gamertag) and gain access to a specialized forum section and then a separate channel on Discord, some will get the codes through DMs. We ask you not to assault our DMs here or on Discord and beg for codes, as that tactic will not work, since the codes were already assigned to particular people. Also, only myself and Radar X are likely to be responsive to queries regarding the alpha status on the Forum and alpha role on Discord, so please be respectful of our developers 🙂 Note, that the bulk of codes will be sent out during the next week. If you received a code and didn't get the appropriate "Alpha tester" role on the forum or discord, please don't hesitate to contact me or Radar X, so we can assign the role for you. This process might be a little drawn out, but please be patient and merciful over the weekend 😉 Servers will be up and running initially, so you can try out most of the features, however finding Standard battles might prove difficult because of the limited amount of players. So your go-to at first would be "Versus AI" mode. That's why we implement focused sessions, where we'll ask you to focus (did I use "focus" enough?) on particular features and provide timely feedback through special forum topics and of course on Discord. We will share the test schedule for those sessions soon and give the groups "assignments" to look at particular features and provide particular feedback on them. Please understand that this is where the NDA becomes quite serious, so if we detect any leaks there will be zero tolerance policy with a swift removal of early access rights for such violators, but this policy is subject to change. Once again, if you didn't get selected, please be patient and wait for the next wave of invitations as we will need more people inevitably. We love you all, but can't let you all in just yet. Until further notice, turn the tide!

I meant to say version, just got a really bad habit of saying Port instead

Happy this game is coming to console. Absolutely best game ever

This is a repeated theme it seems. Not only here, now, but it was in the past in Open Beta of World of Warships to a certain degree. This is "not" a port of World of Warships. It is not a port of World of Warships Blitz. It is not a variation of World of Tanks Console. It's been said quite a few times now by the devs, that this is a new development team. I recall back in Open Beta of World of Warships that a bunch of tankers were greatly concerned that WoWs was nothing more than a reskin of WoT. After all, same gaming company, using the same game engine with a similar theme and even "some" similar mechanics. In turn they insisted that the game would inevitably be a carbon copy reskin. Yet the two are completely different games altogether. This is no different. World of Warships Legends is and has been stated to be a stand alone title. So again, not a port, but that doesn't mean that it can't have influences from "what works" in other successful titles. I understand people's concern, but honestly the over concern that some people have voiced (not saying you) is a bit much. Especially considering the stand alone title aspect and how little is known yet.

I don't think he has a negative attitude. I'm also part of the bunker and his concerns are actually why I brought this up. A lot of people have been disappointed by the more recent course World of Tanks has gone. Since Wargaming is the parent company of them all, naturally those thoughts would come. I am hoping the team will talk about this and be able to put some of these concerns to rest. Edit: And if it is their plan to go in this direction, at least we might be able to be part of the discussion.

Look, bro...... WoWSL has already come right out of the gate and explicitly stated that they will be an independent game and not a port/copy of PC. It’s ok if you want to be bitter and negative about WoTC, but leave it in the Bunker please. Don’t start shooting WoWSL in the foot before you’ve even had a chance to step on deck. If you go out of your way to only find things to be negative about, then you’ll only find negative things to talk about. Warships are made from Steel with Hearts of Oak..... they’re not made of tinfoil. Let’s all try to be honorable sailors and work together to sail this ship! Please, I implore you, leave your bad attitudes in port where they belong! (even I agree that WoTC has made questionable decisions.... but this isn’t the place for it... this is WoWSL and we should all be committed to making this the most positive community within the WG umbrella!)

I think there will be only ships that existed in real life, no blue prints ect

How about Mercenary ships? lol Just kidding never in a million years would I want that

Didn't manage to get into the alpha for the world of tanks on the 360 but I did make it into the first round of beta testing and the best part about that like you said is watching the game grow your input actually matters more than it does when the game is fully released and one of the other positives is you get to meet people who are truly interested in the game that you want to play I still got guys that I met in the beta that I play with today hell I've even met their families and that was over 4 years ago

I was in the Alpha for WoT on Xbox 360, In the Alpha for World Of Warplanes and World Of Warships on PC. I think the best part is watching a game grow from humble beginnings realizing your feedback was part of the process. Growing contacts, being part of a community of players. I love it. I hope I get to be part of the WoWS: Legends Alpha.

Still, I'd pay a buck to see @Philigula's inbox on Monday morning.

Please try to leave that attitude at the door.

That was explained in the FAQ. Xbox is first because Sony likes to drag their heels. We’ll probably start seeing Alpha keys for PS4 in another couple of weeks. There’s no need to call Xbox “crappy” when their parent company is actually far more player-friendly than Sony. (And I’m a PS4 user)

I hope to be in the first group. Meanwhile BOOP to everyone
