Hello All!

I don't really come on the Forums & it's quite confusing but I am used to other forum formats.

Now before you bite my head off that ''Oh there's already been this thread'' I'm sorry for that in advance, I'm new to these Forums.

I was wondering if anyone has any logical guesses to when the new British Cruiser Line will come out, I know its being re-done but I was wondering if there's a rough date of when it will be be available to the public, thanks.

Go on the live server and you may see some being tested, an ST may be able to clarify that.

In a Q and A on reddit I read they likely won't come in 5.13, so it's more likely we see them in 5.14. Seeing how it's 1 major update almost every month, I guess we'll see them sometime in November. Unless, of course, they are ready for 5.13.

 

"The initial concept implied too much "HE-smoke-spam-click-click" meta gameplay, which we really don't want to support more. We want each line to offer some unique experience rather than being clone of previous lines.

We are testing a new concept, the 2-nd edition didn't show good results on production test, then we improved it and will tests 3-rd edition. For now, it seems to be much closer to what we want. I am not sure the line will be ready by 0.5.13, though. We'll see."

 

That's from Sub_Octavian on reddit.

This decade.

 

By the way they keep pussyfooting around them I'd say the next decade would be a more accurate time of release

I think its fair to say some time off I have a feeling they will flip the release with the IJN DD's so with an update every 3 weeks we are looking at likely not before early mid Nov and more likely xmas time.

Saw and got the killing shot on an Emerald tonight in standard battle in my Kiev. He was only using AP.

 

Hopefully getting close.

Saw this on Armoured Patrol:

 

WoWS: 0.5.12 RN CL Changes

Thanks to Urakaze. Excuse the rough translation, that is all he could do for now.

PRELIMINARY. WILL MOST PROBABLY CHANGE IN THE FUTURE. DO NOT TAKE THESE AS FINAL STATS/FACTS!

-Apart from the smokescreen flamethrower and racing boat gameplay style, a new style has been proposed.
-Engine Boost removed and Smoke Screen was reintroduced.
-The smoke screen will only create ONE cloud of smoke, though the radius of the cloud is 1.33 times larger than the normal smoke screen
-Smoke screen endurance time and reload time from the flamethrower style remained
-Belfast and Perth are also equipped with this smoke screen
-Repair Party now repairs the ship in 20 seconds, repairing 2% Ship HP/sec , repairs 40% of the ships HP in total
-Still AP spamming only (Belfast and Perth still get to keep their HE though.)
-AP shells now have the performance indicator of the flamethrower style and in-game interaction indicator of the racing boat style
Take Minotaur for example:

Shell mass: 58 kg
Krupp value: 2672
Detonation threshold: 12mm
Detonation time: 5 ms
Ricochet angle: 60°-75°
-RN CL armour returned to original cardboard thickness

-Other changes to armour that are not listed in 0.5.12 change log were cancelled.
-Repair fee unified to 5500,11500, 23000, 42000, 75000, 120000,180000 (Tier 4-10)

Yes, this is the last Chinese leak on RN cruisers.

As long as the insult of not bringing 1 Dutch ship in this game persists I'm hoping the RN line (Michiel de Ruyter to the RN fans) will come in 2135. Heck I even see the "common wealth" line in port. WTF? are they introducing the mighty fleet from the former British colonies first?! What will we get? The awesome Bangladesh battleship which played a profound role in naval history? No offense to Bangladesh for this matter.
