36 Chisum Alpha Tester 222 posts 1,761 battles Report post #6 Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) I betting 2-3 months till the OBT. WG stated that we won't be stuck in the CBT for long, but that could also mean 6+ months but I'm an optimistic person by nature.

22 EbilPiwat Beta Testers 153 posts Report post #11 Posted April 5, 2015 I'll say it will be 3-6 months. The US Battleships, and Japanese carrier tech trees are available. They are working on 'fixing' the plan they will have for piasters. The lack of piasters in the test is the biggest issue currently. So I expect a wipe, add the US, and IJN tech trees, and piasters 'soon' and then 3-6 months to see that they work enough to open it up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It'll help the game a lot more in the long run In the meantime, I'd like to immerse myself in the elusive lore of WoWS game mechanics. Others should do the same since said mechanics are going to be complicated, if WoT is anything to go by. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MMOs don't have CBT for 6 months so why would such a simple game content wise last even 3 months? F2P games need to get things kicked off at decent rate anyways every day they stay in CBT is wasted money so why you guys think this is beyond me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

7 eclea1 Beta Testers 109 posts 407 battles Report post #17 Posted April 5, 2015 Personally with the way the game looks I expect the OBT within a month. The way WG seems to be handling the CBT seems to be more about advertisement than testing. Which is good however after a quite long alpha if they keep the CBT for too long they will slowly lose the hype they just made. I have a friend who plays who expected the CBT to be only 2 weeks or so as he does not see why the game needs a long CBT. But all we can do is wait and hope.

Guest Guest 0 posts Report post #23 Posted April 5, 2015 I still think things are missing from the core mechanics of the game... just doesn't have any lasting appeal. But that's just me It has a solid base, and several good elements (Music, Graphics, Main gun noises for the most part) though other elements are very lacking, giving the game less depth.

5 carpe_jugulem Members 20 posts 10 battles Report post #24 Posted April 5, 2015 Interesting, the tone on the EU forums suggests a move to open very shortly (which may be pure optimism) and the devs aren't committing to any kind of time frame. The question is I suppose, are they going to add U.S BB's and stuff before open? If so I would expect a longer closed time but with further waves of keys released. Personally I would like to muck about with piasters for a bit (impoverished weekend tester pleb) especially to open up more slots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
37 Evocoot Beta Testers 212 posts Report post #25 Posted April 5, 2015 Could be a good bet that the next major beta update either pushes it to open or allows a lot of us waiting somewhat patiently in. With more fleshed out tech trees they'll need more people around playing the new ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
