WOWS Q&A – UK cruisers by Sub_Octavian

At the moment we have decided to hold the original concept of the branch

• Smoke and HE – It is exactly not what pleases the players nowadays;
• Branch light cruisers, due to the PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS(SMOKE+HE), would most likely play this way(SMOKE+HE) as it's the only effictive tactics (unlike other ships, which regard SMOKE+HE AS one of the possible tactics), otherwise they'd wait for a quick exit back to the port;
• If German Light Cruisers(LC) made fresh trends in gameplay of LC (and our concept of melee to them works and explicitly brings players joy), then most likely we'd wait for negative as by British commanders and from opponents.

Therefore we decided to undertake radical experiment and completely change the concept of branches. It will not be staying in the fog and launching HE, but will be active manuvering and need to shoot wisely. The experiment quite radical, we are not sure that he will succeed in the first try, and certainly not sure that this will not slow down the release branch. But we believe it is necessary to spend on it to offer players new, interesting branch.

At the moment any conclusions are premature, changes have been passed into internal testing and has not yet hit on a production server (where we will have to test them out). Therefore, we do not particularly go into details.

Anyway, all these movements pursue one goal – to provide you an interesting branch which diversifies the game.

When the new concept is formed and confirmed, it,of course, will appear in the corresponding version of patch, and publications on the new branch. And streams and full information support. For now, just yet.
