There was no public beta testing yet,that was a forgerie. .I found out that a month or two ago. Here is a rough translation: Read the comments here OVERLORD'S BLOG for further info on beta testing & WoT:Blitz One german site is reporting that this game will be out in mid 2014
2014 it is, I checked with Overloard "Not in 2013, we are only planning to start beta by the end of this year."

I wonder if it can compete with battle supremacy. Buuut since it's free to play like the big brothers then I think it will be able to
I can't possibly see how could controls translate well to touchscreen for a game like this, but won't judge anything upfront.
Oh, I suspect it will compete very well. Battle Supremacy is great but the expectations for this one would be high considering who is actually doing it. From what I've seen so far, it does look good and should be exactly what people are expecting. Just have to wait and see what the F2P elements are. The controls seem to be pretty good as well and what you'd expect from a touchscreen conversion or how you'd expect to control on a touchscreen I suppose, less complex but getting the job done. It should be a very interesting one as there are some decent ones of the type out there now but Battle Supremacy is the standout at the moment. I can't help but feel that if the pay elements are similar to the PC, this should be the new king. Either way, from the info and bits and pieces I've seen so far, it'll definitely be tough to beat it.
