World of Battleships website leaves dry dock

cool been playing Navy Field on and off for years now. Im glad to see another WWII navel mmo in the works.

Would be lovely if they one day tied together the 3 games (World of Tanks, World of Warplanes, World of Battleships), and made it possible for tanks to fight planes, or planes fighting battleships... Let's call it:

World of Battlefield :)

And this is an MMO? how? Just a big FPS it looks like.

Much as I loved Navy Field, I know Wargaming.net, and that means these battles aren't going to be top-down isometric in true back-in-the-day fashion. It's probably going to be a close-in 3rd-person shooter again, where you drive the ships around. Their experience with World of Tanks will probably mean direct-fire naval combat, as well as just about every big ship having the capability to switch to indirect fire as well. I wonder if submarines will rear their ugly heads? Doubtful..

I just wish a few of the features of Navy Field show up--being able to engineer your own armor distribution and assign weapons was pretty nice.

whats with all the World of "insert name of military vehicle" F2P garbage mmos? can we flash forward a few years and start playing World of Carrots or World of Snails or the next blockbuster hit World of Worlds of Battle Plane Tanks of Fiery Molten Steel XIIV 2.

* War of Ground Soldiers (And every Christmas Eve, you can't fight, but you can go to enemy lines, trade pictures of your family, and have dance-offs with the enemy).

* War of Newspaper boys (Be the first to hawk papers during war time, while rounding up paper for the war-effort paper drive. Be sure to collect all those Action Comic #1's!)

* War of Cooks (Serve up piping hot meals to your troops. No, this is not Diner Dash...really...it's not. You are just confused. ;P ).

More news. Now I'm actually looking forward to it.
Two words: Aircraft Carriers.

For a game (no matter what you want to classify it as) that is free its not bad at all. In the month I have been playing I have progressed nicely and have not spent a dime. I like it better that its not too deep and set in a "world" environment. To me this is a game you play to do something different every now and then. Its not something you devote as much time as a toon you create and grow from head to toe. This is just fast-paced quick battles that you can do without too much time constraints.

I really do not get the "greedy" comment earlier seeing as how they have got nothing from me at all. I will probably end up buying the $20 boxed version just to contribute because for the time I have put into it, its been at least worth $20, not like the $50 I wasted on the Lotro expansion which I will not be playing when it launches.

Our corporate webserver blocked it as a phishing site. Doh!

(Phishing... See?)

HA! I did it again!

Awww no U-boats? I was hoping to be under water...you know....without being sunk.

Considering the three games will share the same experience pool, clan wars map and premium gold, you could consider them to be expansions rather than stand alone.
