Server is restarted usually at 06:00 in the morning, so the mission ended at 06:00 on February 29th. It's always like this.

Apart from that, they could have given them slightly different stats, with one having, for instance, some more AA, another one more range for main guns, another one slightly faster... That would give some incentive to get what is actually the same ship 4 times.

My mind is fine, thanks. These issues have nothing in common. But good try. At that time I didn't know that Supertesters had that extra advantage. My position is the same as for Alphas. Thank you for stating the obvious. I have nothing against someone who signed up but for whatever reasons couldn't get the number of pearls. It would have been nice of WG to make a discount depending on the number of pearls, but they should have let only people who actively participated in the Project have a chance to buy. I have no interest in Warspite. I see what my Fuso and New Mexico can do to it with each salvo. It was just an example of the stupid politics of that company.

So basically someone who didn't even bother to sign in for Project R can get the reward ship, but getting a Tirpitz or a Warspite is close to impossible... Pure WarGaming.

If you expect a developer to answer your questions, take a seat because it may take a while.

I feel much better letting out a good old rant in chat against a moronic player/team.

Hmmm... I don't think so. Nelson and Rodney are really ugly (for me at least), but that's all. I can't remember any other class or ship that could make it into WoWs (that leaves the monitors out of the question) that is fugly.

Yes, I realised this morning that the fake funnel was in front of the real ones instead of behind, and guessed it must have been some kind of historical correction. What's got me puzzled is why the hell they never write this stuff in the patch notes.

Alpha testers got their reward with two exclusive ships. Closed Beta testers got one as well. Giving benefits to some players because their status is elitist. How exactly? I'm not claiming these benefits for me, if you would have bothered to read all my post.

I don't see why Alpha players should have privileges in this regard. All flags should be merely cosmetic.

Kongo speed is not 25 knots, but 30+. And stern chase a fast ship is stupid most of the times. Be it a Kongo, a cruiser or a fast carrier. Only if he's about to run out of map may make some sense.

1000 gold for the clown camos in previous patches were already expensive enough. 3000 gold ? Just LOL

Can you please list them all?

Dear WG, My OP ships are still not enough to consistently have good games. Please buff. Yours sincerely, OP

I didn't mention ARP ships because there's a commercial advertising component involved, and also because ARP missions where 100 times more demanding than Project R.

No ship should be balanced around AA power. This is a game of warships where you're always going to fight other warships. Planes may or may not be in the game. Cleveland is an AA beast, but it's competitive vs other ships. Why can't Yubari be the same, being a ship that was sold for money?

Hmmmm, I wouldn't be so sure. What was Project R? Exactly that. Give away a decent ship for playing.

Just count how often you see Yubari captains in random battles nowadays...

In all my US battleships (up to Colorado) the first step was improving speed. 21 knots is bad enough. If posible, 1st hull upgrade and engine with free XP.

To be honest, with the current state of cruisers in this game my interest in any new cruiser line is close or equal to 0.

I was watching the stream of a fellow countryman and in a certain moment this happened (links to TwitchTV): Full health DD blown up without a hit He fires his frontal turret (the other one had been blown out earlier), DD turns, shells fall slightly off to the left with no hits recorded (so it's not a lag issue), Detonation

So, a sister ship of the tier 4 standard line is a tier 5 premium? Does this mean the tier 4 standard is OP as hell or the Premium will be a piece of crap at tier 5?

Two words: Arcade game.

I've been screwed buy this patch, as I used a zoom mod from the CBT days, and it stopped working after the patch. That mod was discontinued and its author has dissapeared, so I'm forced with the stock zooms which are completely different to what I'm used to. I will try a mod called "Zeiss" that I found in a Russian site, which gives many options with different zoom in, zoom out and FOV, and try to find the one that suits me.

Wow, Kirov at tier 5... WG's inclination for Soviet power at its best.
