You physically lost your money. And failed to get what you wanted. A loss is a loss regardless, you can't spin it any other way. Lootboxes are trash and should go end of.

Hey you played with smoll2razer! I also got rekt by a hakekeku with her dive bombers while trying to kite away with miss georgia (i put myself in a stupid position anyways) but we held of over 7 ships with only 3 lol (amagi shat herself and ran away lol, thank you two smoll toineh minotaurs). Hood's AA has always been trash doe, not sure why peeps actually think she has gud AA. kinda giggle whenever i see her in any tier 8 cv really 'w'

You gamble your money to get a certain prize, you then either get said prize you want (win) or you dont (loss). so yes it is gambling and gambling does not need to be purely money only. You can gamble based on tactics in war, during a fight, during a test, gamble precious items to do whatever you need to but with a chance (usually high) to fail regardless. Essentially these digital items are only as worth as the code they are written in and if they can actually be sold outside its current digital environment (see csgo). Heres the definition for gambling. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/gambling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambling https://www.britannica.com/topic/gambling For example if theres a loot box for tier 9 prems and you really, really want a musashi and you spend the amount for the crate and you get flags then you have lost your money and gained nothing from it since that wasn't what you wanted in general. You keep doing this over and over and over and over, losing and risk huge amounts of money while getting nothing of value in return nor the thing you wanted in general.

*wargaming sees russian bb stats* WG: ahh thank you comrades now we know which russianz to buff! Hmm wonder if the top 100-200 players and worst 100-200 players should be included as well.

On wows-numbers i did some checking and found a very small number of players at 55% winrate and below getting over 70%. Most are at least 60% winrate and over, Although most have below 100 games played in piepan. Noticed peeps seem to do better in her current form than the rts form though which seems to be the same all across the board with most if not all cv's. Mainly due to the fact that the ordance is manually guided from start to finish, so bad players will miss more often and fail to strike due to not dodging flak and good players will strike more often and kill more often due to better target selection, awareness and dodging flak (besides other things). So yeah the gap between goods and bads has increased if anything. I dunno if Saipan is stronger since i've never played her before or now so i can't really say anything.

Then ill probs just play georgia and jean bart then (not that i mind either way). Plane hp doesn't seem to scale that well from tier 8 to 10 if its only a few points, but then i guess you don't want planus to be too gud. What a bloody mess lol.

@Yoshanai Well since your an expert on miss midway, how teh feck do you play her even with stock planes and three module upgrades missing? Tried to do the same things as miss lexi but somewhat mixed results so far, kinda was expecting planes to be more meaty, and enemy team annoyingly enough kept blobing and sticking to islands. While also somehow having crossfires (because in two matchs my team thought blobbing into one giant mass was a great idea....).

Well despite trying to spot dd's even killing them and such, i ended up losing every game in my midway today (3 games but still). It still mostly stock, but i didn't think that would hinder my performance soo much, and im guessing because of the stock planes trying to manage plane reserves is harder, plus not getting hit by flak from multiple ships is harder as well. Annoys me to no end when you spot something and no one bothers attacking it despite whinging to spot something. Did 91k, 78k and 113k so far 6ish kills altogether might be 7. Dunno if its me, lack of experience at tier 10 or some other reason.

Ya i just saw dat, guess the server guinea pigs have decided to transcend regardless. shame, guess wargaming can leave the thread alone for now untill they decide to idk add more things i guess. oh well, might as well start doing a line drawing of a CV but one that actually existed. Just too chooose....

Unusual name but vereh noice. Think sunleader is doing dat in the consumables thread, el2azer has his saipan thread up discussing how long it takes compared to rts to damage and kill targets (and maybe any other CV examples he provides i guess.) I would of called you peace or peacings! 'w' Is there anything to discuss about CV's besides hypothetical lines atm?

*gasps* smoll and peace! yaya. 'w' Wot happened? Why teh new name and face? Lots o arguements here this thread so far. Lets here some ideas from peeps about cv's then i guess back to before i guess.

Estaca_de_Bares uses taunt! response: At least they remembered the cap i guess...

oh roight. who you den hmm?

wasnt there a tier 10 japanese DD also in the works? somekind of hybrid gunboat leaning dd? or did i imagine it. god how many prems got shelved so far? i wonder if theres anymore CV prems besides lusty's sister?

Oh yeah, what even happend to sigfriend? i thought she was ready to go by now? seem like a gud concept (sort of). Could of done with a better heal and slightly less dodgy armour scheme but still. Maybe idk been ages since i last saw her. Makes me wonder if poltava and california will get shelved.

Alright fam the last vid was like 2 centuary's ago, i assumed she had torp bombers because i never really bothered looking at the vids for her. Either way cv reeework is broken so adding her wouldn't really matter anyways. Now calm, and take 20,000 breaths.

If it ever gets let out of the cupboard of course. what if its like a tier 8 ark royal but obviously more in line with tier 8 speed? wud you get her? i want lusty in the game now...

shush you know what i mean silleh. * puts caggi chan in sink* im guessing miss indomitable will forever be shelved? makes me wonder why they even bothered coding and modelling the bloody thing in the first place. oh well.

I would post memes, but they made me a sad barneh. so sad barneh it is. this cv disscussion will reach 500posts me thinks. I just want miss yorkie... Not as a support CV doe, god knows how weegee will manage that.

Hmm im guessing they kinda do via the number of battles you've played then any legacy data on some dusty arse server that got chucked into the back lol. they could restore them that way, since you have somekinda proof you had them (plus screenies, vids and anything else). never sold a prem (only have 3 T-T) so i have no clue what its like. sold two prems on world of danks doe, T14 and tog 2.

yeah, unless the 100mm's get that special pen mechanic i would have 128's or 140mm's (could just put you know 12-14 per side sure wargaming wont mind much). I was thinking nelson style since she can bow tank better with her turret config but izumo version should be fine. both will be fine but i guess @Sunleader you will want miss H43 to come into the game den, makes me wonder what name she would have with dem 482mm guns. wouldn't mind super alsace or even some other wacky ships. should probs stop now. 'w'

oh god... Well this might kick off again...

Yeah i love that design the nelson yammy is pretty interesting as well, was thinking of a tier 9 coal ship for that. Thats actually the mega yamato with 510's and a shiz ton moar gunz. https://www.deviantart.com/tzoli/art/Last-Japanese-Battleship-proposal-759738735 The description is pretty neat doe. Unfortuantly that would have to be somekind of tier 11 steel/coal ship. Although wargaming could just make them 460's regardless. But hey i wouldn't be suprised if i saw bigger gunz later on from this point. for the nelson version these two would be fine. https://www.deviantart.com/tzoli/art/Yamato-Preliminary-Design-A-140G1-D-752230653 https://www.deviantart.com/tzoli/art/Yamato-Preliminary-Design-A-140K3-751636685

Wasn't even aware that an event was taking place like that recently lol. De grasse because i could defo use a french commander crew trainer. and because better la galissonaire is always welcome.

We need bigger ships lads with bigger gunz and moar smoll gunz. 482’s with 225mm secondaries anyone?
