It's all about money dude, nothing more, countries with a low number of players are low on the list to have their language translated, its a cost thing, i run my own business and i certainly wouldn't have all my articles and advertising translated into Tiawanese because one day i have a business transaction with a couple of people from that country. It's simply not cost effective. Secondly the countries mentioned i suspect most of them speak English as a second language. As do 60% of the countries world wide. Fact is WG will only translate into languages where it is making big money. Sadly the short answer is "Don't hold your breath". Translation just won't happen for many countries as you simply don't provide enough financial incentive for WG to bother.

Because they don't squeeze enough money out of those countries, so its a third class service for you, we all get second class service :)

You hit the nail on the head, there used to be value in stuff they sold, xmas crates had 25 and 50 camo, now its 5/10, xmas crates had gold compensation now its credits, T8 ships were around 25-30 euro now 40 euro, ship packs used to have upto 9000 doubs in them depending on the ship pack you bought now its around 2500 for those same but more expensive packs. Many of the ships are cut and paste tech line ships so your getting stiffed even on the uniqueness aspect of anything wg sells these days as well. I stopped buying as the value WG can be bothered to add diminishes. I hope and suspect many others boycott this massive drop in value by stopping spending but is suspect many will just keep buying any of the latest junk WG puts out and WG will just keep adding less and less to so called offers.

If WG can shoehorn broken square shaped pegs like subs and CV into a round hole game like WoW's then i would not be suprised if they could justify sledgehammering and justifying introducing mechs into the game as well , after all HG Wells had HMS Thunderchild fighting a martian tripod in War of the Worlds, so its not beyond realms of fantasy that WG can somehow get Warhammer mechs into the game. Another mysteriously found blueprint of some OP mech styled russian bb on the back of a second world war russian ciggie pack...like all the other fantasy ships they bring out, as long as they can sell it i'm sure they will find a justification for its introduction. What suprises me is after what WG did to Total war Arena's, taking an A class franchise and destroying it in less than 12 months why would Games Workshop risk their brand by allowing WG to mess about with it lol

Ridiculous high prices again, I have all ships on my main ( up till xmas ) except steel ships as I am a solo player and collector. I don't benefit from the clan boosts or play much past Rank 8 in ranked battles so steel is hard to come by. I stopped buying anything from WG after the xmas event due to the rigged crates where all the tiers almost exclusively came out in order, 5/6/7/cv/8 and finally the 9's. I'v always spent well at Xmas and always considered it pretty good value but not this year. I got 21 ships this year and only 1 ship came out of that tier order clearly pointing to them being rigged to appear that way ( on my account and the vast majority of YouTube openings ) so my in tier order drop was not an isolated event. Next is the fact that they removed doubloons compensation totally from the xmas crates again devaluing them along with the rigging. I say this laying the ground for my initial point of stupidly high prices WG charge these days. Your paying £150 euros for some of these Warhammer packs which literally give you a reskinned Amagi and some flags. The more we jump on these overpriced, little effort packs the more WG will pump them out and slowly inflate the prices looking for that ceiling cap where players stop spending. (for me that was xmas). Its your money spend it how you will, but do consider the drop in original content from WG, and instead the lazy copy paste junk with minor tweaks they are currently spamming. Im not a fan of over the top skins and more interested in traditional camo, tho I do get others interest in this kind of content. As usual the art department knocked it out of the park. But WG as a company use some pretty dubious tactics to part us from our money without putting in much effort. Finally Mr FidelisRaven, Darth I think is simply making the point that with everything happening around the world at the moment WG's pricing policy is a little obscene. Which I kinda agree with, especially as most of the content is no longer unique merely copy paste tech tree ships with minor tweaks. In the end it's your money, and people are free to do what the hell they want with their hard earned cash, but do consider what kind of copy paste junk your supporting when paying these over inflated prices, think how many full games you could buy with that 150 euro's. Or anything else you fancy. I'm done supporting WG, WoW's this year went from a must play game to an occasional drop in for me now and I would never start another WG title.

Ahhh that explains it...most Vikings couldn't read or write for toffee, so explains the 2 half letters joined together :)

I have a real keyboard, in English, can't be doing with all that ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. So it's the Agir :) I do however agree that Alaska will prob be the next ship retired.

Alaska...by far, Azuma is a glass canon and the Agir has trash guns and WG have nerfed the secondaries by 20% and even more controversial is the fact that they have manipulated the turtle back so it doesn't really work and have totally removed the nose plate protecting the citadel from the front.....it cant nose in at all and gets nose citadelled easily...Russian BIAS is here it's real and at this point not even open to a discussion as to whether it does exist, I think the way they treat German ships actually borders on out and out racism. I blame Flame he showed a game with the Agir being both fun and effective, two words that simply can't be used when introducing a new German ships. Finally the turrets are extremely fragile and break over and over. So as pretty as the Agir is just avoid it, save your fxp and get Alaska. Getting sick and tired of these BS Russian ships with every toy in the shop and other lines with glaring weakness. I wish they would keep their Russian bias on the Russian servers, simply keep the EU/NA servers somewhat balanced and aimed at players from those regions, they try to appease the dwindling Russian player base by introducing these OP ships on all servers.

Don't expect these clowns to balance subs..they have proved over and over they simply do not have the smarts to effectively balance much of anything. I played a little on the test server enough to confirm my suspicions that the art department can indeed polish a turd, graphically they are great, gameplay wise is also no shock, good players will dominate and make other players games a misery like CV currently do. Meanwhile bad players will hide and camp out the games taking no risks while being immune to damage from many ships resulting in many more full time games with little happening in the final 5 or 6 minutes.. I play games for fun and WG continue to add mechanics that simply frustrate many players both here in WoWs and in WOT, and when players are frustrated enough then they are no longer having fun, no fun means they leave the game. Why these fools continue to add in frustrating mechanics to a large proportions of the player base is mind boggling. They wonder why the player base is stagnating and many of the servers are bleeding away players of many years while replacing them with short term newbies who rarely have the patience to grind multiple t10's. The answer is simple, stop introducing frustrating mechanics that drives away the core players. The main frustration for me with subs is the auto citadel which simply ignores torpedo protection....The Yammy has a great boast of the best torp protection in the game...which now simply doesn't count when facing subs a class it can not defend itself against. I started this game with 8 other players from WoT in BETA and have been a whale of a collector with every prem ship, coal and FXP uptill Xmas in my port. I'm the last player from that group who still bother with this game. On the down side I have not spent a penny since Xmas, care little for new copy and paste tech tree premiums and feel little urge to do massive grinds like the Odin which are so obviously rigged its painful. Almost every crate in the Russian cruiser event holds 5 tokens, its not random its totally front loaded with all the crap so you either grind away your life or get the credit card out. I no longer care if this game sinks without a trace and I most certainly would never start another WG title. Over the last several months WoW's has become a drop in game every few weeks for 10 minutes or so. And I predict that's the way its gonna go for many more old and loyal players.

you can guarantee it, for around £300 Euro lol Don't do it :)

I'm just jesting with you but come on ...it's not pretty lol...obviously your money do what you want with it, as its an event camo i'm guessing it won't be for sale...at least for now.

Why would you want that camo? Probably the fugliest camo WG ever made, i'm sure it's available for half price in Minecraft :)

You fail to take into consideration the far superior pen angles of the new ships guns...making them far more efficient than the older ships guns...Must be a dev to show the headline stats to make a point, but not the hidden stats people have to hunt out on external forums or the stats WG simply do not publish and are used for unpublished balances. Almost a good argument, but you simply omitted all the facts. Perfect recruit for WG, you should apply for a job there :). I'm not sure if these are real shells or made up shells ( life's too short to look) but if they were real they would probably be a different composition again making them superior to the mk2's, finally the guns could even be identical its the ammo that makes the difference not the delivery system.

I'd take the socks over the junk 5 tokens in these crates LMAO...does your aunt now work for WG....the level of reward on opening the gift and crates seems about the same level :) ITS PREDATORY MARKETING.

Every game I have played I have asked the question "anyone received lots of tokens from these crates", there are many who answer and that answer is overwhelming around 100 from 12 crates a few obviously lying who reckon they already unklocked the tier 9 lmao and a couple who claim a single 300. it's obviously not a total accurate way of judging and WG will never willingly give us percentage drop rate but I believe these numbers to be pretty accurate. I don't mind a bit of grinding to achieve a reward at the end but for a month of grinding with these obviously rigged crate drops aimed solely at tricking you into purchasing more crates in the armoury I just can't be bothered...I'm already out. I think some will unlock a t7, not many but some, a tiny amount may scrape it to T8 but genuinely getting anywhere close to the T9 and the alleged few crates required to unlock the T9 will be about as achievable as getting the Pueto Rico for FREE. which I believe was verifiable in just 2 cases. Play the game as normal and you may genuinely be blessed by RNG, unlikely but possible or crack out your wallet and pay for dozens of 5 token crates. Expect little from this event and WG in general and you will rarely be disappointed. And remember these are tech tree ships and will unlock soon. Good luck Player 1 your def gonna need a massive chunk of it.

rants over...jeez WG continue to surprise me every week, and rarely in a good or positive way.

They lose the doubloons they invested in the camo, while receiving the same benefits as those who didn't buy the camo...how in that world do you get they don't lose anything. WOW. Jeez you changed the status of this ship, they didn't ask for it and lets face it doubs cost you nothing and can only be spent in game...For crying out loud give this man and everyone else the doubs back for the money you took from them for a camo that's now irrelevant. GIVE IT BACK. ps I didn't buy the camo but think your taking the mickey out of those that did.

Your not the only one m8.....9 of us opened crates 1 300, most never cracked 100 tokens from their 12 crates...myself I did 90, I hit a 15 and 25...one of the lucky ones, rest were 5's. They won't show drop odds because then it would be too easy to check if they are lying again. The tokens are front loaded to give 5's out in majority of the crates hoping to force you into buying more at 500 doubs a shot...don't get sucked in. Crooks I tell you crooks.

You know your trying to get around loot boxes to avoid being taken to task by governments due to your shady loot crate practices, well i'm pretty sure the way your rigging these latest crates to dish out the low 5 token crates at the front of the event thus rigging it in an attempt to entice people into the thought process of just 1 more 500 doubs try and it will be a 300 tokens. Well i'm pretty sure that's border line illegal too and if not should be, these crates are supposed to be random...it's obviously not. Nine players all opened upto 12 crates each (Including ones from twitch), of those 9 players 1 received 300 tokens, there were 5 25's, 3 15's and the rest were 5's. Really dude....if your gonna make these crates a part of your money grabbing tactics at least make it fair. Stop rigging the crates, stop front loading them with junk. You did the same at xmas and frontloaded the t5,6,7,8 and 9 ships almost exclusively in that order.

Same here Aethervoxx, i'll take the directive crates but only stupids will pay for crates for tech tree ships. Iv picked up dozens of FREE games on EPIC store since I stopped spending in this game and bought games from sites like Instant gaming for a fraction of what WG charges. There is more to gaming than this game.

These are russian ships, and therefore will receive tiny meaningless nerfs like the kremlin....AA defence survivability reduced....OP guns not touched....don't expect any real nerfs to these ships. Henri was destroyed because the Kremlin was out and the HE henri was a big counter to it...so they destroyed it. Anyone remember last time they saw a poor Henri in game. I get why they do it, some national bias because lets face it who wouldn't want home nation to be best, they also pandering to the RU server players who whine constantly about how weak Russian ships are and they are desperate to stop the RU server hemorrhaging players. I get why they do it, they should just acknowledge the fact, I think the bigger crime is the way they continue to destroy any German ships that appear to be balanced or fun ( RIP ODIN ), same with Japanese ships and the poor Yueyang which appears to be a favourite whipping boy.

not my main kiddo lol

Do you see many consistently enjoying it these days, if your easy pleased and happy to put up with obvious bias, cut and paste premiums, bad mechanics and a myriad of other issues that's upto you. Remain a sheep if you want, but i'm from the west where freedom of speech is still valued. And I don't hate the company just the direction it's taking, and I will stop playing when i'm good and ready. Not when some random and faceless and irrelevant poster bleats that suggestion too me. You should buy the new russian premium due out soon the Baaaagration. have a nice day

BS ships BS story BS company BIAS inbound...don't think its even open for discussion now bias is here and bias is MASSIVE :) Story was real bad...got half way before I could take cringe worthiness no longer. If only they put some of the budget for this rubbish into balancing the broken gameplay...if only.

no you don't get the new T10 and yes around 240k regrind on the donskoi...you have 2 days to get it lol...GL
