Work in Progress: Update 14.6


This is a short overview of the planned features for Update 14.6. For more information, visit the relevant link:

EU NA ASIA

IMPORTANT! Because the update is still being tested, the information in this article is tentative and reflects the state of game development at the time of its publication. Some changes and new features may be removed entirely or implemented differently by the time the update goes live.

Hey, Captains!

With Update 14.5 in full swing, it's now time to cast our eyes forward and take a sneak peek at the fun new features Update 14.6 will be delivering in just a few short weeks!

Here's a quick breakdown of some of the most notable new additions:
  • New U.S. destroyers: Ships of the new branch are great gunslingers and have a unique new feature—a Smoke Generator that can be toggled on or off!
  • Graphical improvements: Enabling the WG Temporal Super Sampling setting in your game client will deliver sharper visuals and smoother edges without significantly impacting performance.
  • Rarity system: It'll soon be a lot more intuitive to understand just how unique in-game content is thanks to a new system of visual rarity for ships, camos, and beyond. This improvement goes hand-in-hand with a standardized pricing model for direct sales based on this system.
  • Container Barge improvements: This package of changes aims to improve your experience on the container-opening screen, with the introduction of an animation skip, better container content breakdowns, more flexible options for bulk opening, and an integrated guaranteed drop counter!

[h2]New Experimental Ships & Oregon Leaderboard Event[/h2]


New experimental ships Protector, Hotaka, and Varese have splashed into the game, joining the first round of ships—Metz, Vyazma, and Oregon—introduced earlier this year. The newcomers stand out for their close-range specialty that's complemented by their unique experimental feature: their secondary battery firing range and reload time improve relative to the damage they take.

[h3]Compete to Win Destroyer Johnston[/h3]

A new 1-week Leaderboard event has begun! Climb aboard experimental ship Oregon and try your best to inflict the most damage possible in a single battle. The top 25 players will win U.S. Premium destroyer Johnston, and the next 75 players will receive bundles of Coal.

Everything you need to know about the new experimental ships and Oregon leaderboard is available via this link:

Familiar Battle Types Return!

Two familiar temporary battle types have entered the game for Update 14.5—have a go at both this weekend!


Asymmetric Battles: The tried-and-true battle type that pits a smaller team of players against a larger team of lower-tier bots.





Team up with other daring Captains at the helms of Tier VI–X ships and superships with a maximum of one tier difference between teammates. You can create Divisions of up to five players, and each Division may include up to two battleships, two cruisers, two destroyers, one submarine, and one aircraft carrier. However, unique Commander talents will be disabled in Update 14.5 for this battle type due to technical limitations.


Unbreakable Line: A more recent addition to the roster of temporary battle types. The main feature of these player vs. player confrontations is that when you're destroyed, you respawn!



Exciting news, Captains—Unbreakable Line will return in Update 14.5 and stay with you until the end of Update 14.6! Some changes have been made based on feedback for the previous iteration, but the core idea remains the same—ships respawn after destruction! Battles last only 12 minutes and are fought on smaller maps.
