Even Korean and Chinese online games companies have way better PR and more events, offers, promos, bonuses and attractions than WG nowadays. Heck, even Korean MOBILE games offer more incentives to play... Just that they don't have such beautiful ships...

Yea, few days ago i spent most of my time ingame gawking at those instead of playing. Damn ship porn

Advice for F2P player waiting for RN tree.
Vanhal replied to Plynlimon's topic in Newcomers' Section
I'm not confusing anything. I'm not talking about flag and service, but rather the engineering and tactical concepts than are turned into actual ships and thus reflects distictiveness of every navy. It's not enough for ship to be serving under the RN banner to be called "British" ship. Going there, you could as well call the Arkhangelsk "Russian" battleship, while it was not. Kongo is much more "British" ship than those destroyers and carriers, despite never serving in Royal Navy. Unless OP wants RN in cosmetic way, then ok, but i was under impression that he wants "British" ships (and not purely escort ships of the 3rd line) rather than simply RN flag. If the latter was true, i am mistaken then and i suggest asking modders for help, there are lots of flag mods, and i even saw mod that can change the class name displayed by the client.- 15 replies

Agree with that, missions are fail at three main points: 1. Can't abandon mission, it force you to play certain ships (good there isn't missions specifically for carriers, i would go mad by then, as i feel kind of compulsion to do dailies in online games ). 2. Boring. BO-O-RING. 3. Rewards are bad. Even compared to low level normal gains. For someone that play 7+, pffff.

Advice for F2P player waiting for RN tree.
Vanhal replied to Plynlimon's topic in Newcomers' Section
Sorry, nope. Those were US ship build by US according to US project. Closest to RN you can get for free now is stock Kongo i guess. It sucks incredibly on stock though.- 15 replies

THE closest game of World of Warships ever
Vanhal replied to Tin_Can_Terror's topic in General Discussion
I once had a game when i won by sinking last enemy ship (Myoko) in exactly last second of the match by getting two citadel hits at him (Fuso). Few seconds later i would die too cause of his torps - That was closest i can get. -
German cruisers vs other nations cruisers
Vanhal replied to Darth_Glorious's topic in General Discussion
So, you disagree with me by agreeing with me? Strange, but ok. -
Advice for F2P player waiting for RN tree.
Vanhal replied to Plynlimon's topic in Newcomers' Section
1. Yes 2. If you want to progress more than tier 4 quit playing PvE. Unless you have godly patience. But few dozen battles in PvE for training can help you immensely in this game for a start. Also, if you are not sure, it would be good to test every new ship or ship upgrade in PvE battle too. Best credits for free player can be earned at tier 5 pvp.- 15 replies

Vanhal replied to Darth_Glorious's topic in General Discussion
They used Yorck, Roon and Hindenburg to avoid nazi connotations - of course we wont see ships named for nazi "heroes" (like Horst Wessel), no matter how plausible it would be. -
Wait, what?
-
They do read the forums. Alas, their answer was "No" (in the various release threads). Everything is all right, they are doing excellent jobs, only faulty thing are those pesky, insolent, entitled greedy players that complain about every "offer" being daylight robbery and product tying. Without them, WG's job would be way easier. Oh, wait...

PC Gamer: WoWs is 'expensive and exploitative'
Vanhal replied to _EasyTiger's topic in General Discussion
Knowing WG it would end with double loading time, before and after commercial. And the commercials would be just extra cash for WG, without lessening the burden on players. Better than you, hence he use the word freemium. Oh yes, they are. On 8 tier the difference is not big, but look at Murmansk and compare to WoT premiums. Then Aurora. Then base cost of Mikasa (not available right now, but the number is there) is FOUR TIMES the price of WoWp tier II plane. And so on. So? Most of the point is that the WoWs is harsher than WoT. Yes it might. Probability is higher than zero. Maybe. -
PC Gamer: WoWs is 'expensive and exploitative'
Vanhal replied to _EasyTiger's topic in General Discussion
"Warships is the most thoughtful Wargaming game so far, but its economy continues Wargaming’s pattern of expensive, exploitative freemium prices." "World of Warships is Wargaming’s most expensive, grind-heavy meta-economy yet." " I just wish that more of us could see everything Warships has to offer without an aggressive, expensive grind." "World of Warships is Wargaming’s finest vehicle combat game, but its free-to-play model is getting prohibitively expensive." Uhm. Quoting myself at the beginning of closed beta (and again at open) about possible reviews: "I told you so". Although tbh i meant mainly ridiculous premium vehicle prices in comparison to WoT, which apparently have not been noticed yet. -
Every time you 'FIX' the MM, you make it worse, Good Job
Vanhal replied to Last_Rites's topic in General Discussion
MM has nothing to do with this. At the tiers where people actually play MM is better with every fix. Ask them to change the economy so more players play high tiers. Problem solved. Oh, and some actual endgame. And more players overall. Those are the problems, not MM itself. -
Still way better than the contests and streams. That said, i would expect same level of events as in WoT. No more, no less.
-
Maybe reduce the cost FOR EVERYONE. That would resolve most of the higher tiers problems, like lack of cruisers and destroyers or overall campfest, without artifically screwing BB's like you propose.
-
He never said "WoWs sux" because player numbers is dropping. And yes, at least from the time of open beta till release it was dropping slowly but steadily. Idk how it is now.

Please use UTC to indicate maintenance times.
Vanhal replied to SkybuckFlying's topic in General Discussion
Not even mentioning tons of games "global servers", but all the events are either in middle of the night or in early morning for all of Eurasia -

Vanhal replied to SkybuckFlying's topic in General Discussion
Ha, at least be happy they don't use pacific time. I swear this thing is purposfully made to infuriate people that live everywhere else than the US west coast. -
I see a strong candidate for "dumbest thing ever written on this forum" prize here.

Yep, you got that right.

Zastanawiałem się jak będzie odzwierciedlony Argo Clock na rosyjskich drednotach, ale po chwili namysłu przypomniałem sobie, co zrobili Tirpitzowi... Czyli będzie pewnie miał rozrzut jak pepesza w rękach strzelca z delirium tremens a zasięg jak plunięcie tegoż strzelca. Ale może to i dobrze, że wszystkie trzy typy będą odzwierciedlone przez jedną premiówkę i (prawdopodobnie) jeden normalny okręt w drzewku. Wolę papiery niż kilka prawie identycznych okrętów na kolejnych tierach.

Premium shop ships - no benefit (same error like in WoWP)
Vanhal replied to ulthien's topic in General Discussion
Two guys would answer that question for you, their names are Kruger and Dunning. Please, don't assume if something is incredibly easy for you, it is also easy for everyone else. While i agree that WG are constantly making economy in their games more punishing for a F2P player (we even have premium players complaining which i never heard about in WoT despite almost 5 years of playing!), it's NOT adopting LOL and CS models. If WG would adopt economy model where they sell skins and premiums and whatever i would be incredibly happy. But the real and only point of concern are the maintenance costs. Xp, ship prices and so on are bearable.
