About World of Warships

Wargaming's World of Warships is based on naval combat between vintage warships from the first half of the 20th century. Players can choose and develop battleships, destroyers, aircraft carriers and cruisers. Teams battle each other in this massive multiplayer game and also play in cooperative mode. There are also competitive modes and 12-member team versus team action.

This free game is a deliberately paced hunt and fire game using torpedoes and ship-mounted artillery. Teams can represent the U.S. Navy, Imperial Japan, France, Britain, the German Empire and Russia, Asia, China and Korea. There are other navies available at premium cost.

    "Don't waste your money"

    Posted 2023-06-12

    Pros: The old style of play, subs good but range of torpedos seems a little over the top, the Atlanta used to be good ship now it's ruined.

    Cons: New updates ruin the game play, waste of time buying ships as they change the parameters when it over performs, cruisers now over powered.

    Overall: Used to be a great game but they have changed it so much it has become dead. Don't buy ships cause at some point they change the parameters of the ship and it becomes useless, you don't need flags or camo cause the game works well without. match making is terrible and their new version allowing people to start a new game after they die in one (without waiting for game to finish) no means you end up in a game with 4x4 or less, to many bots now also because no one playing. You cant finish the "tasks" because of lack of players and if you leave a game early to try another to do a task the game providers give you a penalty.
    Used to love this game and played since it started, now its gone rubbish.

    "The story of a good game ruined"

    Posted 2022-03-03

    Pros: Huh?
    Other than the game being highly addictive for the sole purpose of making you waste money on Premium features, there aren't any, hence their ever shrinking player base.

    Cons: Initially the game is fun and challenging and then quickly becomes pay to win, or you get obliterated by veterans, or their gun accuracy (known as RNG) goes haywire in some matches and you couldn't hit a barn wall from the inside.
    The matchmaking is also broken, you're either up against poor skill level players (obviously new) or Veterans in aircraft carriers or Submarines that constantly bombard you in lower tiers when you have little to no defense...
    Not to mention all the politics that go on within their company that add to their bad press.
    It is also not financially viable to constantly play tier 8 and above classes which ruins the grind you endure to tier 10 so you no longer have +2 tier match making.

    Overall: Mostly I love the games they've produced as they have such potential but so many areas ruin this game, so I hope they close down in order for another company to replace them and do it right.
    PS. It has left such a bad taste in my mouth I would actually pay money towards ending this Wargaming group.

    "Torpedo planes suck!"

    Posted 2021-12-12

    Pros: Potential to be great!

    Cons: Aircraft carriers rely on planes for attack. Too bad they are so inaccurate!
    Drop torpedoes after targeting a ship -you hear the torpedoes hit the hull of the ship but you get no points for it! EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING!
    Sometimes the bombs drop before the "crosshairs" sometimes after. even when you line up perfectly it delays the launch of weapon and completely misses target! Sometimes if you pilot a destroyer a battleship will take you out with one shell! Still can't figure how to do that!

    Overall: The game could be outstanding but between the money grubbing and the awful inaccurate shots it sucks!

    "Good game."

    Posted 2021-07-21

    Pros: The gameplay is good ,the graphics, and most of the ships are real, some of the ships in the game were planned to be built but were canceled, including, U.S.S. Montana.

    Cons: Well, there is no training, but if you played World of Warships:Blitz first, you will have the experience to play in the 463 ship game World of Warships, also the updates, I do not have time for them.

    Overall: Great, the graphics are cool, the the ship speed is a bit slow, but they are WW1 era, so that is to expected, the carriers, able to control them and your squadrons, wow, just wow. I have played the game for like 2 months, already have the first carrier you can have in US, I have experience with WoWs Blitz, so world of warships is no problem. So, watch out cause here I come!

    "Could be a great game but dissapointed"

    Posted 2020-08-20

    Pros: Great graphics keeps you thinking but read he cons. Avoid random battles.

    Cons: When you play random battles eery enemy ship singles me out and no other allied ship gets touched. Something not right.

    Overall: Could be a fantastic game but spoiled by poor random battles.

    "Wargaming stole $200 from me"

    Posted 2019-12-31

    Pros: The free version of the game us okay but don't spend real money on thus game.

    Cons: I spent approximately $200 on 3 premium ships from the Wargaming.net store and I never received them.

    I was told that i was not entitled to a refund and that they were not legally required to do anything because they were in Russsia and American courts had no jurisdiction over them.

    I successfully disputed the charges with my bank and began receiving threatening emails from Wargaming.net.

    I turned the emails over to the FBI and blocked them from sending me future emails.

    Overall: You should be safe playing the free version but for God sake don't give them an opportunity to steal your money!!
