World of Warships knows a ship that is too dangerous to come into play.
In an interview with PCGamesN, the Wargaming leaders spoke about the plans for World of Warships and the rest of their franchises. It seems apparent that content has already been planned for the next 5 to 10 years; they are increasingly working to understand the games as a “shared universe”. But we have already dealt extensively with Wargaming’s big plans.
An interesting detail is revealed about World of Warships. They wanted to bring the “Kitakami” into the game. This is a Japanese cruiser that was characterized by being able to fire 40 torpedoes at once.
Kitakami – too dangerous for inexperienced captains
The “actual ship”, a Japanese cruiser, was equipped with ten quad torpedo launchers, which allowed it to send out a swarm of torpedoes.
In World of Warships, they tried to create the ship with this “torpedo” swarm. However, during testing, it became clear that players not only sank enemies but also their own teammates. Wargaming considered perhaps reducing the torpedoes. They then decided that it was precisely this torpedo flood that would define the ship and removed the Kitakami for now.
However, they are playing with the idea of bringing her back someday, perhaps as a reward for successful players, to ensure that the Kitakami only falls into the hands of experienced captains.
By the way, they are initially satisfied with the success of World of Warships. It is said to be “sticky”: Those who play World of Warships play it on average three hours a day.
