Says the guy that can't even get that. You've fallen off at the deep end dude.

ftfy

And that's a suggestion that anyone should be able to get anything just by mindlessly spamming random battles and thus not really related to the arsenal, beyond it actually going in the direction you want. I mean, why make any sort of effort or skill matter in the least bit? Why not just ask for battles to reward the same xp, win or lose, playing badly or not?

Being unable to do something due to your other commitments isn't discrimination. I mean, I guess I should go demand to get the WC trophy. Why should it matter that I never much tried to play organized football, isn't on any team, and certainly not in any of the teams in the tournament, it's just discrimination if I don't get the same rewards.. somehow.

how's that a response in the least? You ignored how I pointed out your self contradicting post as you went on a personal attack to avoid answering for them. Now you sidetrek the fact that you did so by going on an absurd non-sequitur. You're literally calling others "not very bright" as you claim there was no way to know how the Stalingrad was going to be awarded before this announcement. That's just ridiculous.

So you're devolving into mindless personal attacks. Well. you already did that earlier against other people so.. I guess it shouldn't be surprising. /+free grammar check for the guy calling others not very bright

It's not speculation when it's been said explicitly. FFS the flags you got for season 1 and season to says "Exchange 3 flags for the Tier X cruiser Stalingrad".

Wait.. they're both making them only available to ranked and CW players.. and also making them available to everyone? what? just.. what? /also, I'll just go visit the closest car vendorship, demanding they make their priciest lexus "available" for me because it's for sale after all //and you're still better off than before. if your complaint is the fact that some rewards are exclusive, then make a thread that's about that, not the arsenal and currencies used

Yes it was. It's been known since CW was introduced.

Again. Stalingrad was NEVER supposed to be available to you to begin with. The arsenal however gives you a small chance to get it. Giving you a larger than previous ZERO chance is not something to cry about.

One question and one click is effort now? And even if you didn't plan to buy any of the ships, the bonus xp (even for ships you've researched, since it also increase captain xp and free xp gains) and reduced service cost should be worth it by itself.

To be more exact, the personal oil you have accrued (pun) will get converted to coal when arsenal is introduced, and after that point oil will stop being a personal currency altogether.

Except.. again.. and do try to read. Before the arsenal, he and other players that can't get to typhoon league would NEVER be able to get that ship. After it's added to the game, they are now able to get it, though through extra effort elsewhere, while also getting easier access to other premiums. The change here is to his and similar players BENEFIT, and removes an advantage from CW players. His complaint isn't even about the stalingrad, but the small cache of coal you get to replace the old oil you've accumulated. /also, just because you buy something form some business doesn't award you the right to get something else for free

Except it's not. You only get a small bonus amount of coal. You are NOT excluded from going ahead and farming coal to buy stuff from the arsenal, and that at far greater efficiency for the effort spent. And as you say you've already taken part in ranked, and are thus eligble for some amount of steel.. you're literally able to get what was before clan only rewards by putting some more effort into that (or just convert it into coal of similar amounts to what someone with an average amount of oil would get). Again, you've lost nothing and have gained the possibility of getting something you prior had no chance to get.

You don't have to be in a clan to play ranked... And you don't even have to play in CW or ranked to have a chance to get some steel, though not likely enough to get anything you can buy a ship with for a long while. However someone who might play one season of ranked and then another season of CW might use these spread out gains (maybe with steel from some secondary source like a SC) to get something, when he before would have needed far greater effort into either. In the end, you lose NOTHING if you weren't in a clan. You're in no way worse off, and likely better off. Those in clans got a small stash of coal, worth a special upgrade or two, but this "advantage" will get deluted very quickly due to the far higher availability of coal (6x as high reward+additional sources) than the meager payback you get from gathered oil. And the steel being handed out for CW flags and rank 1s is merely to adjust for the removal of the old ways of getting the ships, in that regard there's no additional reward for being in a clan or having played ranked (besides the additional coupon and 1k steel for the 3rd CW season to typhoon). Again, the only thing different here between those who have been in a clan and those that aren't (besides not partaking in content and now having a non-zero chance of still getting ships that before would be entirely out of your grasp, and this includes the majority of clans that never get to typhoon or higher) is getting a small stack of coal to replace a currency that was always supposed to be usable for some personal benefit but yet had not. "oh no, some people will be able to buy a radar upgrade" or "some people will be able to afford a premium ship a few weeks quicker" isn't much of a position to have.

Yet you're still no worse off than before. Small chance vs absolutely no chance.

You couldn't get it before. There's a small chance you might be able to get it now, only over a longer time. "boohoo"

Punished? Lol? You're also being "punished" by not getting benefits from ranked if you don't play it then? Oil was always supposed to have some personal use, that never became a thing and now you get a small amount (a very small one even, you can get 900 coal per day, but you could only get the equivalent of 150 coal per day through oil).

At most, the oil clan-players have stocked up will allow the purchase of a few cammos or consumables, or a special upgrade or two. What players not in clans get from this is.. Access to CW only ships What players not playing ranked get from this: Access to ranked only ships. What either of the two last groups get is of far greater value. Indeed in some ways them getting this is devaluing the value they used to have for ranked players, or would have had for CW players. So.. this is just crying.

But still, as usual, wrong. Simply checking average damage in t6-7 ships makes it obvious that even a middling player will have wins like that fairly regularly, and wins themselves are, again, common even for utter potatoes. 3 days to get one such win is thus not in the least difficult, no matter how much you feel the need to cry at your teams (lol) at your ships (more lol) rng (massive lol) or whatever else excuse you can make up.

Well you can't. But only because it's a t6+ mission.

It's more than that. During the time he farmed that WR, he was mostly playing in divs, against lower tier CVs (as few others had grinded out to high tiers as quickly), before CV got strict mirrored MM, and before most of those CVs got massive nerfs and AAA got a huge buff. It's more a testament to this games early history than relevant to what's possible today in any way.

shut up

Even a potato will win nearly half the time. That leaves doing 70k damage, which anyone can do in any relevant ship (t6+) at least once in 2-3 battles (rough estimate going from average damage for t6 ships). So at the worst you should do it in 6-7 battles worth. Which across 3 days is 2 battles a day. Much hard, much impossible.. /and how on earth is the quality of teams relevant to your own ability to do damage? are you crying that opposing teams are too hard for you to score damage against? //but hey, it's easier to blame teams for failing to do something that's pretty damn easy and is mostly in your own hands, just so you can excuse complaining that it's hard without facing the reality that it's your own failings making it hard

Well, I should rephrase that. It's easy for the sort who isn't so butthurt and with a persecution complex against anyone who points out their bs, that they seach for any post someone make to make their impotent reactions since they have nothing else. For those, it's probably very difficult. +edit, he sure does love proving my point
