2x Battle Modes arriving During Update 12.10 - Asymmetric Battles and Clan Battles 23 "Triturus"
During update 12.10 we will see Asymmetric Battles and Clan Battles return to the game, WG have given us some idea what to expect, but there will possibly be some changes before both battle modes start.
Asymmetric Battles
Update 12.10 will bring back Asymmetric Battles to the game! The latest iteration of this popular Battle Type will have a different format compared to the previous one, as battles will be fought in a 5v12 format with Tier VI to X ships and superships. The bot team will not be able to field Submarines. Ships on the player team can differ by one Tier, while ships on the bot team will be up to two Tiers lower than the ships on the player team. For example: If a player team is composed of Tier VI and VII ships, the bots in the enemy team will be Tier IV and V ships.
Asymmetric Battles will also have the following changes compared to the previous iteration:
- Divisions of up to 5 players can be formed (one aircraft carrier, two battleships, two destroyers, two cruisers, and one submarine)
- Bot ships are now more likely to focus on the highest HP ship closest to them.
- Bots will now be less effective at dodging torpedoes.
- Bots are now more likely to head toward Key Areas to capture and defend them.
Based on collected data and player feedback, we decided to include these changes in order to improve the gameplay experience for non-battleship classes, which was one of the main concerns put forward during the previous iteration. Changing bot behavior to be more active around Key Areas will make the gameplay more dynamic and challenging.
Clan Battles 23 "Triturus"
The 23rd season of Clan Battles "Triturus" will start on 15th November. Battles will be held in 7 vs. 7 format on Tier X ships.
