Captains! We're happy to announce that World of Warships: Legends, the tactical combat action for consoles developed by Wargaming Saint-Petersburg, is entering the closed alpha stage! If you've left us your credentials we're going to start some communications with you very soon and you'll get a chance to be among the first to try out the game! Meanwhile, feel free to browse around the forum and meet your fellow gamepad commanders, but please follow the Rules. Also, feel free to check out official community Discord! Stay tuned for more legendary news and prepare to Turn the Tide!

I am the other Phil and I approve of this message.

Greetings everyone! My name is Kristian aka T33kanne, I am 26 years old and want to introduce myself as the new Community Manager for WoWs: Legends. I am a very passionate World of Warships Player and some of you may now me from the PC Version. I started playing video games at the age of 14. The first games i picked up were based in FPS and MMORPG gerne. A friend suggested World of Warships to me in August 2015 and i picked it up as one of my favourite games since then. When I started playing WoWs I tried to play every class. I quickly realised that the battleship class is my most favourite. For the first five months I was a pretty casual player until I joined my first clan in January 2016 "MDIV" - Deutsche Marine Division. In September 2016 I joined "OMNI" - Odem Mortis International and participated in several Tournaments. After leaving "OMNI" in February 2018 we created, together with a bunch of french competitive players, "RAIN" - Rejective and Idealistic Narcissists and we were able to secure the 1st place of the 6th King of the Sea Tournament after only 4 months of creation. So I can tell you, I am very excited to be able join the WoWs: Legends Team and support you guys from "the other Side". Now a few points to my person: I moved from Germany to Prague so I am not based in St. Petersburg. I’m here to make sure that you guys have someone to talk to if you need anything. I will answer your questions and forward concerns to the Devs. (I hope there won't be any 😉 ) So if you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me. Turn the tide and stay awesome!

Legends and gentlemen! It is without joy or sorrow that we bring you this update, but in essence PS Alpha is not going to start now, and it moves to the beginning of October. We don't have a delay in development, but rather decided to bring you the more polished product with many a bug already taken care of even at the alpha stage. Development for PlayStation goes pretty much hand in hand with the Xbox process with some caveats. That said, the version PS testers will see is going to be identically updated to its Xbox counterpart, and leave you with a smaller "Known issues" list than we would have otherwise. So please stay put, we're getting closer and basically in a month you should be able to start turning the tide on your Playstation consoles!

Guys, who have registered for the beta weekend, this post is to clarify what the next steps are! 1. When? The weekend will begin on Friday, December 21 and last until Sunday, December 24 (UTC 4:00 is when the servers will go down). 2. How do I know that I'm in? If you receive a follow-up e-mail with a code that's a good indication! The mailouts will happen no earlier than 2 days before the weekend. Redeem said code in your platform store, download the game and join the fun! If you receive a letter with a code it means that the servers are live. UPDATE: Mailouts are about to begin on Dec. 21 UTC 4:00 3. What if I don't receive anything? You might not get access, but you will still get your goodies when the game is released! Moreover, this isn't the only beta-weekend we plan on having. Those goodies will include various consumables that can boost your progress in the game. 4. Is there a way to get something extra during the weekend? Play 10 games in any mode and you will receive a special beta weekend flag when the game is released! 5. What happens after the weekend ends? We're going back to closed testing, however you'll be able to find everything that happens to the game. Moreover, there will be at least another beta weekend, so stay tuned! 6. Do I retain access to the game after the beta weekend if I registered recently? Unfortunately, no. We want as many people to join the fun and tell us what they think, but there is still much work to be done before we release, so we hope for your understanding. 7. Where do I find more about what WoWs: Legends is about? It's a naval action game that offers you a great console experience with legendary warships and historic commanders keeping you company while wreak havoc upon the seas! To find out some more in-depth info, please refer to these posts: Why are Legends the way they are? Commanders in Legends 8. I want to get better in the game! Now! Easy, young commander! Feel free to go through our guides section. 9. I found a bug, I found a bug!!!!!!! Please report it either here, or on our Discord server in the appropriate section. Also, check the Known issues thread first! If you're sure that your bug is new, please provide a brief description of it, any screenshots/videos, your platform, timestamp (with the timezone included). Sometimes we would also ask for your platform nickname but we will reach out to you for that. 10. Is there an NDA of any sort, may I stream? We currently have no NDA, so please stream away. Unfortunately, you won't be able to stream with native Xbox tools yet, but otherwise we're not limiting you from sharing the fun. Turn the tide!

Welcome, captains! 🙂 We're happy to see you here. Please make yourself at home and enjoy. While all of us (both players and devs) are eagerly waiting for Alpha to start, let's have a good time chatting here. And if you're ok with it, introduce yourself in this thread and say hi so we know you better. I know we're building the base of future WoWSL community together. Let's make it the best place to be from the start 🙂 Cheers!

Greetings Legends! My name is Robin Sy, I'm 24 yo, and this is my short introduction as the new Community Manager for World Of Warships Legends EN/FR. I am fresh out of France as much as I am fresh out of the PC version of World Of Warships, and I'm quite excited to experience the game and meet the community around it! Some of you might also know me as TheSailingRobin, on YouTube. I've been creating diverse content since November 2016. (shameless plug alert) Feel free to go and have a look if you're interested [https://www.youtube.com/thesailingrobin] How have I discovered Warships? Well that's a good question since I can't even remember the answer. It seems like I've been playing this game ever since it was released, or at least since the early days. I've witnessed it develop over the years into something I became quite addicted to. The mix between intense competitive action and almost unlimited strategy got me hooked up in the early days, but I quickly realized that team play was one of the key element of the game. So you'll see me quite often in a high tier division on the EU server. What are my go-to ships? I'm a cruiser main on PC (Des Moines) but I honestly enjoy all classes, except CV. I'll need to get my grip on Console to get an opinion on the version. What other games do I play? Plenty of others! I try to stay away from big titles and focus on story driven games and open worlds (Deus Ex series - Dayz - Xcom2 - Astroneer - Subnautica). I'm here for any questions and concerns, and as an experienced, dedicated and passionate player that will get to learn Wows Legends with you, I'm very open to discussions. Do not hesitate to contact me, I'm quite available. On a more personal note, I moved to Prague on the 27th of February 2019 so that's where I'm based now.< I'm an addicted video editor and I'm trying to get a PHD in memes. Also, I like dogs. Wait, is that even useful information? Cheers, and turn the tides!

Options Prologue Legends! I am currently working on gathering as much Information as possible for you to read. Please bare in mind, it takes a bit. Game mechanics and basic information will follow as well. I want to keep these Wiki-Threads as clean as possible so i deactivated the comments. If I missed something, please use the discussion thread: Things stated in these "Wiki"-Threads may change! So lets start with the first basic informations: Ammunition High Explosive Armor Piercing Shells Consumables Damage Control Party I Hydroacoustic Search I Smoke Generator I Engine Boost I Catapult Fighter I Repair Party I Surveillance Radar I Upgrades Slot Main Battery Modification 2 Aiming Systems Modification 1 Secondary Battery Modification 2 Aiming Systems Modification 0 Slot Damage Control System Modification 2 Steering Gears Modification 2 Propulsion Modification 2 Slot Concealment System Modification 1 Target Acquisition System Modification 1 Propulsion Modification 2 Slot Concealment System Modification 1 Target Acqusition System Modification 1 Steering Geras Modification 3 Commander Currency Commander (alphabetical order) Base Traits Skills A - L M - Z

Legends! We are happy to announce you the official start of the Beta. A few of our chosen Community Contributors were able to give you their first impression of the Game. If you haven't seen their Videos here is a list for our English audience: The Mighty Jingles NoZoupForYou This thread is for discussions all around the game. Feel free to post and exchange your opinion with others! Stay legendary and turn the tide!

1. Generally speaking BB's are the hard counter to cruisers, cruisers are the hard counter to DD's, and DD's are the hard counter to BB's. 2. Any match I tried to camp, regardless of class I'm using leads to defeat. Ask some of the best players here such as T33kanne, @KaLeuWillenbrock, @Not Cerberus, etc. they will all tell you the same thing. Camping leads to lost matches. 3. See point 2 but replace camping with edge riding.

I think one of the biggest mistakes the console tanks team made was treating asset development like a national security matter. There was never any excitement generated from new tanks or lines because they wouldn't tell us what they were doing. The Dev Blog for WoWs PC is fantastic. We can see what's close to release, what's still being tested, and what's further down the pipeline. Look how much buzz Prinz Eitel Friedrich has generated, and we don't even know when it will be released yet. Same goes for upcoming changes in mechanics, consumables, etc. Just having an idea what's in store is a big deal. Please don't lose that openness on the console version.

No this was the January Patch with a few changes 😉 We will announce the "Beta-Weekend" soon enough.

@KaLeuWillenbrock this will not stop cookie cutter captain builds, no more than the PC does. Everyone will gravitate to what works. The thinking this will add more choice or better balance things is just an illusion.

@PietroMaximoff i think you make a good point about how people choose to play their games. I'm in my 40's and I still sit directly in front of my tv just like I did when I was a kid playing Atari/NES. Although I will admit it does no favors for my back lol.

Yes you will - once you will receive the E-Mail with a Code there will be an instruction. The Mailing will start on the 18.12. - the CB Weekend will start on the 21.12.

As an Alpha tester for WoWS, I'm really excited to see Warships coming to consoles. I am worried about the beta weekend falling RIGHT before Christmas. I hope my family will understand why I'm in the game room the whole weekend 🙂

Monday, September 17, tune into WoWs anniversary stream to find out more about Legends gameplay and get a chance to become a part of the alpha! The stream begins at 14:00 UTC and the Legends section hits hard at 17:10 UTC. Turn the tide!

For everyone that missed the anniversary stream - here is the Legends part 😉

Hallo zusammen, ich wollte mich der deutschen Community auch nochmal persönlich vorstellen. Ich heisse Kristian aka T33kanne und bin der neue Community Manager für WoWs: Legends (En/De). Falls Ihr also Fragen oder Anliegen habt könnt ihr gerne auf mich direkt zukommen. Ich werde mich bemühen eure Anfragen so schnell wie möglich zu bearbeiten. Eure T33kanne

An unrealistic hope my friend! 🙂

Unfortunately there is always one or two idiots that try and make a mountain out of a mole hill. I know most guys will be understanding.

I wouldn't give me your social security number, but otherwise, when it comes to WoWs:L I'm a solid dude!* *This opinion might not be representative of what @Calypso thinks

Let me dispel some misconceptions, sir 🙂 We're not putting any platform before any other platform per se, however we're trying to get on with the times, and a significant part of our potential playerbase does prefer the rapid pace of Discord to a measured yet, slower forum. We do double all of the news items both platforms, however, so there's no disrespect towards any of our community members. Another reason why Discord might be more popular among the future Legends is that many of them (if not most) are communicating using their phones, which do go well together with Discord. Forum is usually preferred by PC users whose numbers are not that high in our particular case, but in the end of the day - to each their own, and we're not depriving any platform of information. When it comes to Reddit, there are couple of things at the moment that prevent a fully functional sub. First, it is an open resource and we're still in the closed stages of our testing. Second it is a community-ran platform, which we can at most recognize, and I believe with time there will be a subreddit which we interact with regularly. Then again, maybe you're trolling and I write all of this for nothing, but if not, I hope you have your answers now 🙂

Know what you mean......well, maybe we can get into the beta when that rolls around.

GOT IT! On the one day of the week I have work 12 hours. I think I'm not feeling so well tomorrow.

Damn right!

Look forward to seeing you eat some humble pie

This is how ships work, right?

I 100% agree with the sentiment of many here. I would have absolutely zero interest in his game if it was being handled by WGCB. I have much more faith in WGSP, even if this team is only a sub-division of them.

I wonder if I'll rage as hard playing ships as I do tanks... 🤔🤔🤔

@dieWildkatze Here, as a sign of compromise, is a doggo doin' cat stuff

Detection of Ships 9km Consumable duration 30s Reload time 180 s Number of consumables 2 (please not that this consumable is currently only available on the Baltimore)

@John-berg1995 The smoke Nerf on DD's is temporary. Can't remember the exact reason but had to do with AI DD's during standard battles. It should of only affected tier 3,4 DD's during the closed beta as well.

My rundown so far, bearing in mind I have no prior experience with WoWS in any form: Pros - aesthetically it looks great so far; gameplay is smooth (no hiccups or jitter); making things like PvP and commander access linked to experience level is a nice way to ease new players into the action; on the whole RNG doesn’t seem to be as influential as WoT (maybe I just haven’t noticed as much) and I like that there is no premium ammo. Contrary to others’ opinions, I like the mini map being top rather than bottom screen, since torpedoes and nearby obstacles need to be seen in the lower portion of the HUD. Cons - the torpedo aiming mechanics are not intuitive or perhaps feel clunky; it does feel like a farther view is needed to help situational awareness; small things could be improved, such as making the highlight box stand out more when over a given ship (right now it’s brighter white, like bold, but can get lost), providing more guided information on upgrades and slots, and some sort of descriptor/guide on the strengths/weaknesses of various classes. WoT is infamous for requiring players to find online sources to learn the game properly - there is no reason to continue the trend here. Those are my current thoughts as a total noob to Warships.

Evil....so evil...may you step on a lego while half sleep! Lol

Place for funny but clean jokes, stories, etc. Starting off, remember to check the curtain rods On the first day after his divorce, he sadly packed his belongings into boxes, crates and suitcases. On the second day, he had the movers come and collect his things. On the third day, he sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining-room table, by candle-light; he put on some soft background music, and feasted on a pound of shrimp, a jar of caviar, a bottle of spring-water, 3 cans of sardines. When he'd finished, he went into each and every room and deposited a few half-eaten shrimps dipped in caviar, and some sardines into the hollow center of the curtain rods. He then cleaned up the kitchen and left. On the fourth day, the wife came back with her new boyfriend, and at first all was bliss. Then, slowly, the house began to smell. They tried everything; cleaning, mopping, and airing-out the place. Vents were checked for dead rodents, and carpets were steam cleaned. Air fresheners were hung everywhere. Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters, during which time the two had to move out for a few days, and in the end they even paid to replace the expensive wool carpeting. Nothing worked!...People stopped coming over to visit. Repairmen refused to work in the house...The maid quit. Finally, they couldn't take the stench any longer, and decided they had to move, but a month later - even though they'd cut their price in half - they couldn't find a buyer for such a stinky house. Word got out, and eventually even the local realtors refused to return their calls. Finally, unable to wait any longer for a purchaser, they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place. Then the ex called the woman and asked how things were going. She told him the saga of the rotting house. He listened politely and said that he missed his old home terribly and would be willing to reduce his divorce settlement in exchange for having the house. Knowing he could have no idea how bad the smell really was, she agreed on a price that was only 1/10 nth of what the house had been worth ... but only if he would sign the papers that very day. He agreed, and within two hours her lawyers delivered the completed paperwork. A week late the woman and her boyfriend stood smiling as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home and to spite the ex-husband... they even took the curtain rods. I LOVE A HAPPY ENDING, DON'T YOU?

Für Stufe 10 (also WoWs am PC) braucht man schon ein wenig, ich würde das aber nicht in Zeit sondern eher in Anzahl an Spielen rechnen, abhängig auch davon ob man einen Premium Account nutzt oder nicht. Wenn man komplett bei Null anfängt und gezielt nur auf ein T10 Schiff spielt, würde ich mal so vielleicht 750-1000 Spiele schätzen. Du musst bedenken das du ganz am Anfang noch unerfahren bist, daher schnell stirbst, nicht viel Schaden machst, keine Caps einnimmst etc. und somit am Ende der Matches dann auch weniger Silber und XP verdienst. Mit Premium kann man das ein wenig ausgleichen, aber ab so 200-300 Spiele solltest du halbwegs die Mechanik vom Spiel verstanden haben. Es kann auch gut passieren das du zwar schon genug XP für dein nächstes Schiff hast, es dir aber vom Silber her nicht leisten musst, also darfst du extra Runden schippern um Silber zu scheffeln. Ohne Premium können T9 und T10 Schiffe auch gut ins Geld bezüglich Unterhalt gehen, hängt natürlich davon ab wie gut man dann mittlerweile auf diesen Stufen ist. Bei Null startend würde ich glaub lieber erst einmal in die Breite gehen und mehrere Schiffe/Nationen beginnen. Wenn du dann eine Basis so im Bereich T5-T6 hast kannst du anfangen gezielt auf ein T10 zu gehen. Macht auch mehr Spaß genügend Abwechslung zu haben

What does "boop" mean & can I attach it to a ship?

May this topic be even Englisher than any other English part of this forum 🙂 Enjoy your stay, folks!

I am an avid fan of WoW on the pc and same goes for WoT on pc and console. I have been looking forward to WoW finally coming to console as it is an amazing game on pc. I hope to be part of the closed alpha.

Hey Apache!! Nice to see you here! If they added Warplanes we could maybe one Day have Combined Forces play!

I’m looking forward to this. I play WoWs on PC, but WoTs Console is my jam. I’ve been waiting for this for years! Can I go ahead and sign up for Supertest now? I already test for Chicago.
