Inside the game
The minimap, visible ship information, team composition and battle notifications help players follow the situation. Interpreting these cues also depends on experience and attention.

More data.
Not always more understanding.
In World of Warships, players make decisions while the situation changes around them. The game provides essential information; independent tools provide further statistics. The difficult part is understanding what matters while the battle is underway.

How players get information today
Players already have access to a considerable amount of information. It comes from several places, each serving a different purpose.
Independent statistics tools
Applications such as PotatoAlert and WoWs Monitor offer additional context about players and matches. Their information can be valuable, but statistics still require interpretation.
The named services are independent third-party examples, not TaskforceIQ products or partners.
02 / THE CHALLENGE
Knowing a number is not the same as knowing what it means.
In a changing battle, a player has to consider multiple information sources, relate them to the current situation, and decide where to focus. The value of information depends not only on its accuracy, but also on how quickly it can be understood.
More information is not necessarily more clarity.
03 / OUR PERSPECTIVE
We believe this can be considerably better.
TaskforceIQ is exploring opportunities to improve how complex game information is understood. Our work remains under private development. We are not publishing product interfaces, specifications or implementation details at this stage.
The question worth asking
How much of the player’s attention goes into understanding information, rather than using judgment and experience?
A considered approach
We value clarity, responsible development and a fair gaming environment. Details will only be shared when appropriate.
