Does anybody know how I actually test it? I already signed up but I don't know what to do next.

let's see if it becomes something

[tankzalott]

just because of all the nerfs to cv play over the years the constant whining moaning and complaining by kids about being killed by a carrier in one go .

Never mind the fact that other ships can kill you in one volley. This rework to appease the kids and try to get more to play carriers when they hate carriers anyway , is both unneccessary and not really wanted , dial back all the silly nerfs to cv play and people will play them naturally . I have played carriers a bit and have the saipan , i hope the compensation will be worth it . carrier rts worked well as you could control both your carrier and the planes ( to a certain degree)  now you only control a flight a planes ? when we could control them all at the same time and move your carrier?  a bit of an odd choice to change this . Please stop trying to appease  the whiny kids or we will just end up playing battlehips in every game and nothing else . thanks

To be honest. RTS genre is one of the most played and most people like/played it. The problem isn't the RTS style. It is the laggy UI and missing teaching of ingame mechanics. And then what I really hate is that WG didn't learn anything from the incidents with the Chrysler tank in WoT and the GZ in WoWS. You still lie to us, you want that kind of rework for the Console controls. I honestly think you won't manage the balancing. As an exmaple. You gave USN CV's 1 setup, but left the IJN CV's 2. So you tried to balance 1 setup around 2 ones and failed completly. I just hope you don't just shift the problems, like I belive. Instead of really fixing it. But I still look forward to it, because I hope the best for the rework and would really like to test the new gameplay. Since I own and played most carriers in the game except for GZ. And I am one of the better players.

Good Luck WG, balancing the new CV's and submarines.

 

P.S. What I would like are camos for the planes. Because we will end up seeing those a lot. Like having blue planes on my IJN CV that uses the alternative blue perma camo.

Hope change comes lives soon, I love RTS but this change is ok with me.. From the video It's similar to BattleStation:Pacific Aircraft carrier gameplay  which I quite enjoyed. :)

I wasn't really focusing on the idea of captains making errors or not, I was trying to focus on the results of those errors. CV captain errors affect his team very much and immediately. Any other class captain's error does so far less.

I disagree. You assert the results of every and each error of a CV's captain lead ineluttably to a catastrophe and to a sure defeat. This, very simply put, is not what happens in this game. Is just a trivial simplification of more complex game dynamics.

Even if these bad CV captains can destroy their teams with a mouse click (or "error"), which I don't believe, there is always the option of tuning the gameplay so that this could not happen anymore. Which is much simpler than invent and implement a brand new game mode from scratch. Which, on the other side, is mandatory to solve other kind of problems NOT related to gameplay at all, imho.

Being a Closed Beta Tester, I actually enjoyed CV's from the start having sometimes 2 CV's per team and forcing cruisers to ACTUALLY PROVIDE AA defense to BB's and CV's.  Then all the changes not allowing 2 cvs in a platoon together, then changing everything.... making AA crazy and nerfing CV's.  Its just not fun playing and hasn't in a while.  I'm not sure this BATTLE STATIONS MIDWAY approach is gonna work... I will take a look at it, but I would almost say go back to the beginning of CV's in this game and go from there...   Keep it simple...

I have enjoyed playing CV since the beginning. My biggest issue is nearly allways that toxic chat that occurs every... frikkin.... time.... no matter what you do, in good or bad... (got even reported 3 times in a game where i sank 7 ships and made my personal best score with midway)

They will select a few number of Players who participated and sent them instructions on Email that you used to sign up your World of Warships Account. hopefully we get lucky. :3

Honestly we dont need that kind of cv gameplay its easier to play like this now rather take Survey of Do we need that gameplay --- Yes or No if people vote yes than put it if people vote no than dont put that in game because it will ruin the game

[44smok]

If WGC will be required then LOL nope ain't gonna bother

Hi, I normally play Public Test when it is there, do I need to sign up for this separately?

Normally they sent to you an invitation email. Nonetheless you'd sign up on the wows web site.

Early WOWS player, I decided to halt progress of my Japanese  CV after reaching Tier VII. Let's see if this makes it fun again.

Good going WG, and keep making this game awesome.

Thank u, sukassa. I signed up from the website, but they seem to only allow players from high tiers, who play a lot with carriers. My highest ship is tier 3, and it seems I won't be testing it.

 

Note: WG also sent me an invitation email for British destroyer testing, but they later sent me another email saying they sent the other one by accident.

 

Note 2: It's been two days now, I don't think I'll make it.

[TheMadTrooper]

I look forward to see the changes to cv for my self I think a change was needed not sure it the right path but fingers crossed

I do not think the test started, because for proof, there would surely be many videos of youtuber on wow that would show the new CV gameplay if it were the case, but we have none, so do not lose hope, like me: D

Exactly, as we say in the video, the test will be happening in the upcoming weeks. Stay tuned for more news :)
