WoWS: New format of ships’ descriptions in the Armory and Premium shop – Update 0.11.6

~ Sebastianul

Details about the updated format of ship descriptions, which will appear in the upcoming version 0.11.6.

General Principle

With the release of 0.11.6 we will update the format of ships features’ descriptions in the Armory, Premium Shop and other places where you can purchase a ship.

Updated descriptions will contain all the basic information about the ships without a detailed dive into their characteristics. Features will include notable strengths and weaknesses of the ship that determine her gameplay and distinguish her from other ships of the same type and tier. For example, fast main battery reload for a battleship will be highlighted as her special feature, while having a standard Repair Party consumable will not. In addition to strengths and weaknesses, there will be “neutral” features, such as the presence of deep-water torpedoes or SAP shells.
