Special Features of the Test

The rewards for activities on the Public Test server may differ from those on the live server.

• VIII Kansas, IX Minnesota, and X Vermont will not be available to research on the Public Test server.
• On the Public Test server, Ranked Battles will utilize a reworked system. The battles will involve teams of Tier VII–X ships (depending on the League) facing off against one another in a "7 vs 7" format.
• For the purposes of testing, the conditions of the "In Pursuit of Strasbourg" and "Ships and Fates" Campaigns have been made easier to fulfill.  VII Strasbourg won't be available on the Public Test server.
• We've changed the reward for completing certain shipbuilding phases at the Dockyard. II Tachibana, V Yahagi, and IX Hizen won't be available on the Public Test server.

The light-effects on the new port are strange. Mid-parts of ships are dark, rest is bright.

Commanders, just to be sure, I would like to remind, that:

Hi,

 

In order to fix an issue when either a screenshot from the past battle or black screen appeared before showing the battle results, the public test will undergo maintenance during 1 hour on Friday 20th November at 09h00 UTC.

 

Thanks for your understanding,

I haven't update my PT client a few updates and now I have to download ''only'' 24 GB of data.

Considering I downloaded only 10% in last over 60 minutes times this will be a long night...

What weegee should focus is to optimize their game client and game itself, and not put some mediocre events instead...

[Hades_warrior]

After 10 hours of downloading of last 3 updates I can only say how thankful I am for this optimized wg client.

The fact that weegee ignores my feedback was totaly expected 

I must say that wargaming game center is THE worst game client I have ever seen.

1. First time opening 0.9.11.0 and the Dockyard popup text is in Russian:

2. The overlay in the Dockyard intro is too small by a single pixel width and height, leaving a bright line on right and bottom edges (Screenshot at 13_40_06 and 5x zoom) 
1440p full screen, graphics quality = very high

3. In the Armory, Credits are not being shown (this was before and after picking up 50,000 Credits from the Free Reward bundle) only an animated busy circle.
They are being shown in the main Port screen (615 064 756).

[thyns]

This trivial UI feature has been around for a while, but the end of match Combat Mission roll-over reports don't quite fill the progress bar. Even when 100% there's a small gap at the end, so it looks incomplete.

Port of Kure
Graphic realization of excellence.
Beautiful winter surroundings.
I found a kind of "game of contrasts" interesting:
The festive and Christmas atmosphere with fireworks,illuminated naval paths and glittering trees with the work of the shipyard cranes in the background and the warship on duty in the foreground.
Very good, great job, I loved it.

 

New Campaigns
I liked in general both Strasbourg and Santa campaings, same for the winter camos on ships.
Good work.

Best regards, Fafnir

[Krudog]

I enjoyed the new campaigns, but I did have issues entering battles saying the server was overloaded and multiple times I'm only fighting one player in random or ranked battles even though it showed at least 6 or more players in queue.  The Dockyard mission was enjoyable as well, the new port was definitely fits the holiday season so very nice job on that.

Thanks a lot for your feedback, Captain. For me, the Kure Port maybe is too industrial, but it is nice to read different interpretations. 😊

Stay safe!

Can't login to the PTR since day before yesterday. It says my version is not up to date but "Can't connect to the update server". What'd be wrong (definitely not my internet connection)

I uninstalled PTR but when I try to install it again the message just the same:

[Vana_Kurat]

PT server is not available since 25th Nov. First it said that my version is different from the server version, then after some uodates were installed it says it cannot connect.

I have had the same issues since the 21st. Get the same screen all the time.

Hi Captain, 

The Public Test of the Updates 0.9.11 and 0.9.12 closed on Tuesday 24. Probably the PT server was already closed when you tried to access it 😊.

Hi Captain, 

Your problem instead could have been due to some connection problems or some issues related to the firewall/antivirus. Try also to contact our Customer Support, if you will have some problems again in the future.

I thinks there is a problem on PT instructions page. "Check my rewards","Leave a feedback" buttons. I cant login from that page, cannot leave a feedback.I dont know if my browser is crashing or something else. It is loggin in from wargaming/wows main page, it okey there. So, i wanna check my PT participation rewards. But i just cant.

 

Also this. Tier V Texas situation on campaings. I guess, Campaings wont be easy that much on live server. You need to notice us to rent this ship from steam for completing these campaings.

Hi Captain, 

I think you are referring to a browser issue, but just to be sure: If you meant the login to the Public Test Server right now it is not possible because the PT is closed. If everything will go according to the plans, another session of Public Test should be available soon.

Hello Mr. Manager,

I didnt mean to log in to PT server, the game. İ was saying its recent public test instructions page in website. From that page ''check my rewards'' and ''leave feedback'' bottons. i cant log in to my account thru these buttons. i checked it with other browser its still the same. it says invalid password and email, but its not. I guess you are not paying attention what i was saying, because i pointed it really clear.  I am telling about These buttons or links , i cant log in via these.so i cant leave feedback(if this is not a feedback) and i cant check my rewards either (if i have some). Thanks for time and attention. I'm gonna stay tuned,for sure.

You don't need to, rewards are credited now automatically a few days after an update went live. Even if the page worked for you, there would be nothing to claim/check

 

of course this doesn't solve your login problem, but at least you won't lose rewards

Thanks Mr. Admiral. This is a clear ''roger''. 

İ just wanted to check it, saw there is a problem. I am not a really experienced on this but ''log in'' problem is happening since second round is started. And these auto-like, copy+paste messages from ''player support'' is not helping anything. That was what i've meant really.

Thank you and have a nice day :)

Salute :)

Well, the event stinks because it's nothing like the good prizes you can potentially gain in World of Tanks, and even with the nicer looking graphics in the WoW game there is NO desire to play this game on a regular basis to achieve really anything at all it seems. You make it EXTREMELY hard to gain coal to exchange for unique ships in the store, and I mean it's like trying to climb Mount Everest many times over which makes it EXTREMELY taxing to actually gain a decent level X ship or near that. So, it's far simpler and more straight forward to gain a level 10 Tank in WoT, and that deters players like myself to even bother with this game on a regular basis because why should I when you give ZERO incentive in payouts of EXTREMELY tiny amounts of freakin' coal and steel....!

So, the payouts need to be seriously revamped for BIGGER and easier payouts of coal and especially in steel too if you want to retain players on a regular basis.

Also, what's the heck with only paying out Flags in the freakin' Calendar - only flags?????

Not a happy WoW player at all...!
