Patch 0.5.0 (Full Release Patch)

[Userext]

Hello people of the internet. WG isnt suprising us at all. As they did with OBT release(3.1 to 4.0 jump) there will be a patch at release

 

What do we know so far? Not much. I only found a thread. I am hoping them to publish 0.5.0 changes tomorrow. You know this is kinda funny because no testing was done for 0.5.0. Anyways

 

-MM changes http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/30473-050-mm-changes/

 

And MrConway confirming 0.5.0 being at 17 of september

MrConway, on 15 September 2015 - 02:00 PM, said:

Yes, sending the Kitakami to meet tier 10 ships would be a little mean  Whether and when it will reappear in game I cannot say.

 

Nice but now i have question WHEN will be 0.5.0?

On Thursday for release!

 

You know such a major patch(possible release of some tech trees i dont want to spoil it) and no public test for it? I mocked with 0.4.0 rush patch but this is beyond that

 

Edit:

I'm sure they tested it allright, notice how the Supertesters have been really quiet here on the forums lately.

[Xevious_Red]

Depends on if there are big changes. If they just decided to change the MM table, unlock ranked mode and give a new version number then I can't see why they would do any testing.

 

I'm hoping the German stuff is there, but since it's not October yet I doubt it.

[Userext]

There are new things. I dont want to spoil it though. I saw some photos that was in a thread later a moderator hid.

[Gatt]

In the meantime, the launcher has been just updated .....

[Siagor]

Basically, they screwed the Premium ships.

 

Won't ever see 1 tier lower, only 1 or 2 higher. Always on the bottom of the rooster.

Spoiler it with a big warning/disclaimer

The game mechanics are always a subject of major discussions, with many conspiracy theories popping up when something is not known for sure – such as the Matchmaker. It was a subject of extensive testing during Closed and Open Beta Test and subject to changes based on your feedback and our statistics.

 

Since the release is coming and the new MM was implemented server-side today, it is time to lift the fog concealing the Match Maker mechanics spread for Random Battles!

 

Enjoy!

You might want to read the chart properly

Only exception is Warspite. All the rest will meet only their Tier and one or two higher.

How so?  My tier V gremy still gets in tier V games.  Any ships that also see tier V games.. such as tier III cruisers see all tier V ships... like my gremy.

[Siagor]

Gremy still gets in V battles, of course. But do you sometimes see IV? Now you will see only V, VI and VII.

 

Or am I wrong in reading the chart?

​

The ones i shared for 0.5.0 MM is not max/min its same with the one on left for this chart

I think you are.  Look at the tier IV ships.  They can be matched against tier V and tier VI ships which means they meet any ships that are tier V and VI.  So in order to get a true idea of what ships any ship will meet in game, it is the tiers that are shown on the chart + any ships that can meet the tier of your ship (in this case any ship that can meet tier V).

 

p.s. sorry - I'm crap at explaining!

[Siagor]

Oh, OK, then I was wrong. I do apologize.

 

Forgive the poor monk, too many days without food :-)

Remember those are 'Battle Tiers' MM will make changes based on previous high/low tiering (individually) (as per patch notes for 0.4.1.) and whatever other magic it uses (as per the Patent)

[Takeda92]

It's probably not a big content or balancing patch. But the one after it will probably be.

[inAbag]

Which is the addition of the German tree end of October. I doubt we will be getting anything else before that.

[Userext]

If i had the photos i have seen i would break it to you. If i am guessing it right this line will come with 0.5.0 or it might be a bit after that.

 

Edit: No i am not talking about german line. 

[ironhammer500]

Well this patch will be another kick in the (insert word) for carriers after tier 6,  i can tell you 1 tier above makes a lot of difference in plane strength so 2 tiers above will be crushing.

i think the mirror MM stil goes. It would be weird to pull mirror MM out.

I have seen it not 100% how they intend, id say it works almost 75% of the time and then has the odd hicup, but if say a Lexi and independence matched vs a Shokaku and Hiryu, the IJN fighters will get slaughtered.

i cant know about that nation balance part though.

[JohnHusky]

Eh? So MM gonna be even more fixed? So whats random anymore?

 

Gonna be interesting to see what the patch is gonna add. If im gonna request a wipe for launch or not.

 

Oh i did see a small patch today, but i guess that was not it?

[placeholder001]

I'm sure they tested it allright, notice how the Supertesters have been really quiet here on the forums lately.

 

Well... we are a bit fed up on keeping everyone on track... It has become a bit too much... Also it is a bussy period after all just after vacation...
