As was previously announced, there will be balance changes made to Petropavlovsk, Zao, and F.D. Roosevelt in update 0.10.10. These small changes are required in order to carefully adjust the balance of these warships. Further changes may follow in future updates, should they be required. Soon we will surely share more information about the reasons for changes to particular ships in a separate publication. Besides, in the first half of November, we will also release a video where we will provide a more detailed information on how we work on ship's balance.

Recently, we posted an explanation about how container drop outcomes are determined in World of Warships, and — further — we announced that we would begin publishing the exact drop rates for containers available in-game in the near future. Today, we would like to address some of the most frequent questions that have since been asked about this topic. 

Commanders!

Back in September, we turned to our community to help determine the visual style of our next in-game map, and, as you may remember from the poll we held on our portal, the winning theme was "Faroe Islands". Now, we're here to share some news about its development.

We'd like to share details on the characteristics of superships Satsuma, Hannover, Conde, Annapolis, Zorkiy, and Yamagiri, as well as the settings of their unique mechanics. 

This September, during the official World of Warships' 6th Anniversary stream, we issued you a challenge - guessing the identity of a ship based on its silhouette. You suggested many different historical names and variants, and the correct answer was named almost instantly.

Commanders!

Earlier, when we shared a list of different planned measures directed at improving World of Warships, we promised that we would publish all drop rates for all Containers and Random bundles over the course of 2022. Today we're ready to share some progress in this direction with you.

Commanders!

We want to follow up on our announcement regarding Submarines in Random Battles and share more details.
