In this case he/she will get the rental ships right away. The status is still upcoming, details will be announced before we go live. Those infos will come before the season start. And as to achievements: No, unfortunately they won't be earnable.

We do our best to get the modpack updated ASAP, but since it needs to be recompiled for every version and sent to us by the devs, there are sometimes slight delays. Seeing that the official modpack will now be more relevant than ever, we will try to have it published as soon as we can.

It is indeed. You can find a list of included mods in the post, or simply download and check it out! :)

Communication on this topic was definitely no ideal, but I also think you are blowing this out of proportion. You are after all worrying about problem with a mode that has not been implemented yet. If we had released the mode without taking this into account and having a solution, then I would understand it entirely. We should have more details on our solution on the portal next week, well ahead of the mode's release :)

Of course not. If you you do want to use some mods and be entirely safe, I would recommend sticking to our official mod pack as it has been checked by developers and contains only approved modifications.

We are aware of the situation on the NA server, please refer to Sub_Octavian's Reddit post for details. As soon as we have some more concrete information to share regarding this situation on the EU server, we'll let you know. Until then you are of course free to discuss this issue here. In the meantime:

Yes.

We did realize that this was an issue but were not sure how to address it, as there are several options from a technical standpoint that needed to be investigated. You have my assurance that there will be a solution, the details of which will be announced as soon as everything is nailed down. Until then there is still some time until the season starts, so please be patient :)

They do not :)

a: We can't do that yet, we'll update you on progress when we can. b: Still looking into it. c: Also looking into solutions here. d: We intend for them to be, but whether and when this happens depends on many factors, including CV changes and how the first season goes. We have no metric or data to split clans by in the beginning, but due to the ELO rating clans should spread out quite quickly. Agreed. This thread has run its course. While we are more than happy to engage in civilized discourse with you, even when the feedback is mostly negative, but this thread has become a proper cesspit. If you wish to continue discussing this topic on the official forums, keep the discussion civilized and on topic, or it will be locked and I will have to ban people. //closed

With this kind of attitude it is hardly a surprise that there is almost no one in this thread support the way we have chosen to go

I love the way you quote only part of my answer.

As I have now said multiple times, this is not our intention. We are looking into ways to provide you guys the flexibility to switch setups without having to pay doubloons. Yes, about 50% of them. As to why you only have to look at the reasons we have already explained multiple times.

I am not sure if it will be the same ELO system, I'll let you know. The last information I heard was that signal flags will be earnable in clan battles as well - but don't quote me on that quite yet ;) While we respect our community contributors opinions greatly, we are not going to make decisions based solely on their opinions. And as was pointed out, the opinion on our announcement was far from unanimously negative. Without being able to confirm this I would also hazard a guess that many that do think it is a good idea are being silent because they don't want to get chewed out by the very vocally negative part of the community...

at T10 you have to achieve a certain level of damage to make any sort of currency We're not planning to make it a mode where you constantly lose credits by playing, wait and see. How is renting to players (who have not achieved competancy / skill level in T10 vessels) (i.e) who have not ground the path to get to T10 level, doing good or enhancing the game play? It lets players that are in a clan but have not reached tier X participate in the clan battles and will hopefully make them better players by encouraging them to learn how to work with their team and play the new ships. How does W.G. intend to stop the "UNICUM) clans from clubbing the smaller clans to death? There will be an ELO rating, so good clans should not be facing bad ones once they have played a few games. This also means that teams with many rental players will face similar teams if they are not performing well. The cost in gold / xp to reconfigure our T10 boats in a config for the current meta into a specialised "Clan Wars" config? Really? We know this and are currently looking into ways to make this affordable to everyone - more on that soon.

That's not how this works, but you can send an application :) To be fair those are not bad ideas, but until they or something else has been implemented, the problem remains. Its not that we don't want CV's in clan battles or that we are not willing to change them, but it will take time.

It absolutely is, that's why CV's striking ships is actually quite hard and rare in competitive. The main issue we have with them mechanically in terms of competitive play is their spotting ability that negates a lot of our spotting system.

It would kinda defeat the purpose of a mystery bag if we told you what was inside :P And honestly, nobody told me either :(

The fact that it is not a random battle allows for very coordinated crossfire that is fatal to cruisers. We tried different limits and found this one provided the best balance. Random battles are supposed to be just that: Random Also: See below:

Thanks for the update. Computers... how do they even work ;)

Gentllemen, unfortunately the promised in-depth FAQ will have to be delayed until tomorrow so we can ensure that we will get it localized for other languages and the RU cluster as well. My apologies. I am going to leave answering any further questions until we have posted it, as I hope that this will address many of the concerns that you have voiced. EDIT: My apologies as well (Ev1n)

Unfortunately I was not able to get any further ideas on resolutions from our support team, I can only suggest reopening your tickets again. If there is an issue affecting multiple people, we will need them all to contact us via tickets to be able to collect the data necessary to track down the errors. Apologies for the inconvenience.

We know that dedicated CV players will not be happy with this decision, I was just pointing out that they can indeed participate in another class of ship.
