some general idea

[KitKatCandyMan]

ive been waiting for this game for some time now and i think it might be time for me to get started on the forums and become part of the active community im kind of a noob when it come to ship im more of a plane person but i am somewhat active of tanks aswell i usually post questions im not really and info guy ill sit and ponder tech trees for hours carefully planning my route then come to the forums for some info on my desicion. i get frustated with game very easilly so if there is a bug you know ill report it if i see it

 

my first question

what time frame are these ship for the game going to be in and how small are the first couple tiers going to be and how big are they going to get

 

what will be the light tank, heavy tank arty etc... equivelent

 

will there be submarines or is it just ships

 

what scale will the maps be taking place

 

will there be like, anti ship guns, i dont know what to call them but will there be those

 

and will the guns on the ship work like turrets in WoT and do i have to worry about shooting my self

 

i know the game isnt out yet and most of you will not be able to answer these questions but if a dev can enlighten us that would be great this is also a hello to the community id like to get to know you guys, running in a pack is much more efficient, and like jingle says, lol , fair fights are for suckers!

 

please excuse any mispelling errors i type very fast and then dont back throught and check cause im lazy :P

Most if not all of these questions are answered in the FAQ.

Well I'll give you a link to the faq and answer a few simple questions.http://forum.worldof...?/topic/76-faq/

1. The ships will be in the WWI to Korean war so there will be no missiles or nuclear powered aircraft carriers. The only types of ships that will make it in game are Battleships/Battle cruisers, Cruisers, Carriers, and destroyers. Any ship types smaller than a destroyer will not be included in the game because like subs they are too vulnerable and under armed.

 

2. Battleships/Battle cruisers will be like heavy tanks, Cruisers will be like medium tanks, destroyers will be like light tanks, and carriers will be similar but also different from arty.  

 

3. There will absolutely be No submarines at any given point in time. They are way to slow, to vulnerable, and most importantly this game is going to be about fleet battles which almost always never included submarines.

 

4. Maps will be much larger and time limits will also be longer.

 

5. All guns except dedicated anti-aircraft guns will be able to shoot at ships although like world of tanks, armor and penetration will matter.

 

6. Yes most ships will have one to multiple guns located in turrets which will all be controlled at once.

These two questions will annoy most people....

They cannot be compared and there will be no subs

ty for replying so fast and most of my questions were directly stated in the FAQ so thank you for that too

You'll find this forum somewhat more forgiving than WoT's. As most everyone here is used to hearing questions like that on an almost daily basis.

 

So, welcome to the forums, enjoy your stay.

I suggest taking a look at the unofficial wiki http://wiredstar.com/WoWsWiki/  :smiles:

^This.

For me you got away with it because your post consisted of more than 1 sentence, didn't come across as rude, and at one point actually contained the word 'please'.

Get a spellcheck. There are many free spellcheck tools for browsers nowadays.

Please be less "lazy".  It takes effort for us to respond in a friendly manner, maintain the Wiki, etc.  If everyone were "lazy" you'd not have a nice welcome here nor would you have the extensive resources available to learn about the game.  If you're expecting that we expend effort to communicate with you, please have the common courtesy to make a basic effort in making your post readable.

That said, welcome to the forums.  I'm not trying to be a jerk, it's just a pet peeve of mine when folks ask for help but do so while demanding that we excuse their laziness.   :sceptic:
