The development of World of Warships has progressed a lot for the last few months. A lot feautres and new content have been added to the game, and even more concepts and game design documents have been devised for future. However it was the right time to put the game through so-called focus-testing (by a small group of people representing the target audience) that took place in late July in Saint-Petersburg, Russia (this is where the developer Lesta Studio is located).
15 luckers were given an opportunity to check out the early build.

Lesta producers are really impatient
Playing the game
Tired game designer
The enemy is going to the bottom
Everything goes as intended, Serb makes a lunch-break
It appeared that girls liked battleships most
Basically everything went good which means that the core gameplay will be finalized or nearly finalized quite soon.
More stuff on WoWS is to come.
not a single sneak peek at gameplay... :(
ReplyDeletea bit early for gameplay footage
Deleteis it possible to see at least ingame screenshot ?
Deletewhen is the alpha scheduled, men id give everything for an Alpha invite....
ReplyDeleteMost likely some time in 2013, there is still a lot to do.

Deletewaiting will be the death of me :P
follow the order, check out warplanes first :)
DeleteWoWP sucks pretty bad. Saw many Alpha testers quit and many beta testers quit.
DeleteI think WoWP is going to be a flop. BUT WoWS is going to be amazing!
2013? damn, i was expecting fall or maybe winter for first alpha to air :@
ReplyDeleteThat's my own expectation, I don't work on the project directly, so can be wrong with it. :)
DeleteBy the looks of it, given WG's track record & judging by the all the non wrist watch people in the photos I would say 2015 for alpha at the earliest.
DeleteBy 2015 we just have to extend the trilogy with mech-game. :)
Deleteworld of walking battleships and flying tanks more like
DeleteAny idea on types of ships to look forward to? I.e. Submarines, Cruisers, speedboats, Destroyers?
ReplyDeleteAlso just a guess but after WarGaming's purchase of the engine company I would think that one day in the 20## future that we are going to click an icon that will essentially put us in a locker-room of tanks, planes and boats. So if one day we will be playing "World of WarGames" then I say nothing is withheld from us which we have conceived to do and keep moving forward.
Q&A posted on FB yesterday:
DeleteQ: Which ships and eras will be represented in the game?
A: The game will include ships from the beginning to the midpoint of the 20th century. We’re going to have four types of ships: battleships and battle cruisers, aircraft carriers (with some hybrids), cruisers (light and heavy), and destroyers. We plan on having two nations, the United States and Japan, ready for the release of the game.
Eheh , even Pro (pic 3 - Vspishka) have a pick to test WOWS/WOBS.
ReplyDelete:D
ReplyDeleteIt looks like they always took the picture so perfectly that there always was either a faded screen only a corner of the screen or a head in the way... Uuuuuuurrrrrrgggghhhhh. I want my battleships now.... And my navy field game broke (it won't work) so gimme wows now!
ReplyDeletecant wait for alpha to start,will be the best of the trilogy imo.
