We want all ship types to be present in all battle types, including the main one for our game - Random battles. Why don’t you add submarines only to a separate battle type?Ĭreating a ship type that is limited to only one battle type does not fulfill its main purpose - increasing the diversity of gameplay. In previous Updates, the values and their dynamics are on the same level: The data is taken from Update 0.11.8 survey. The chart below shows how the number of players who were against adding subs to the game permanently varied based on the number of battles played on the subs. Those who played at least a few battles on submarines better understood their gameplay, strengths, weaknesses, and overall effectiveness.
Separately, we should note that the perception of submarines appeared to be significantly influenced by the fact of playing on them. Players’ perceptions of submarines varied, but different attitudes towards change are normal. Of course, all this time we’ve been watching the perception of the new class as well, evaluating many parameters and metrics to make sure we’re moving in the right direction.
Thus the next step is getting the submarines into early access. That’s a long way to go for developing one ship type, and we needed to move on. Finally, only about a year ago, subs were added to Random Battles, where we, based on your battles, brought them up to release-ready status. The subs have come a long way in testing - almost three years since the concept was created.
