Warspite on sale - but in a bundle
IamTroublemaker replied to OldGrandad's topic in General Discussion
Well, if I remember correctly, less than 10% of them actually play the game. I remember seeing the numbers either on rita blog or on an WG video. I also highly doubt anyone from the marketing team plays the game... EDIT: Tbh I dont give a [edited]anymore. I've come to a point in game where I cannot progress properly without credits which either means I need to play Murmansk the whole time (even though I'm bored with the ship already) or buy a proper T8 premium that might suit my style (which is either a BB or a CA, although I prefer BB) and is there any proper premium BB that earns a lot of credits I can buy? NO. Why can't I buy it? Because I if I will pay for the ship, I WANT JUST THE SHIP. Actually there is one premium BB, the Warspite, in a bundle where the ship itself makes less than 50% of the bundle price. So yeah. I've seen someone before say that premium content is not what can make one stop playing. Well it's certainly making me stop play, for reasons I've previously said. Trying to communicate with WG via forum won't work obviously. The only thing we can do is buy more bundles until the game dies which is gonna be relatively soon because it seems not even WG has faith in this game.- 450 replies

The premium ship choice is horribad indeed, but as you know, WG and their employees don't even play the game and fail to realize that. Its just BUNDLES BUNDLES BUNDLES!- 450 replies

Well, it always says who sent you the gift afaik and he said he didn't get any notifications, so how would he know he got the gift and has the ship in port? Anyway, just ignore him then... The point of this topic are bundles overall, not every individual that buys them (and there is a lot of them )- 450 replies

Teamwork is everything. You are still inexperienced in this game to judge it like that. The MM is in most of cases fine (except in late night hours when it simply doesn't have enough ships to balance properly). And as someone before said, yes, you can beat a higher tier ship in this game if you actually try and do some manuevers, like angling. Secondaries are far from useless and I love almost every ship that has good secondaries. They work really good against everything as they can wreck DDs and CAs and set other BBs on fire (it doesn't always happen) and I've had quite a few battles where secondaries did 10-20k dmg (on certain ships tho). Anyway, you still have too few battles to judge the game like that. Every ship has its flaws and you need to exploit them when facing it

Wargaming's take on historical reality vs online gaming?
IamTroublemaker replied to vaskemaskina's topic in General Discussion
From T5 to T8 IJN BBs have more HP indeed, but they are much easier to citadel and have worse armor than their US counterparts (Kongo and Amagi were battlecruisers), have overall better top speed. Kongo has less guns than its US counterpart while the Amagi has 1 more gun than it's US counterpart (it's not much better because it has less frontal guns but that doesn't matter now). Also they have overall better secondary guns. Their role changes from tier to tier. US BBs (T5-T8) have less HP than their IJN counterparts, but they have more armor and angling is more efficient, but they are much slower (with the exception of T8 which is relatively fast for a BB). In fact, they are just brawlers from T5 to T7 and they have much better AA. -

It was one of the rare bundles that actually seemed right, but then again, it was a damn bundle! I really don't understand why cant they just either offer us 2 different bundles with 1 being cheaper and 1 like they currently are, or a ship alone and in the bundle. That way everyone wins and gets what they want.- 450 replies

Want our money and run ? No you dont
IamTroublemaker replied to lethalbizzell's topic in General Discussion
From what I've seen so far forum won't help at all since the majority of players doesn't even visit it and thus probably doesn't feel the way we do + we, who say something are ignored by WG. -
Did you even read what I wrote? How can one get clear sky against another Bogue? Bogue has 27 planes afaik, and Zuiho is close to it as well...

We need more premium ship/tech tree premiums from 5 and and on. The only ones we have are Atago/Atlanta basically which is NOTHING, almost no choice. Just compare the WoT and WoWs premium store. I know WoT is older, but they started with the bundle [edited]after the premium shop had sufficient amount of content.- 450 replies

And the xp/credit income. You basically need 40 plane kills to count as 1 ship kill and considering the amount of CVs and planes at that tier, you cannot achieve that. Therefor the stock setup is the best for Bogue

We are kinda in the middle considering the prices, overall prices that is. RU is definitely the cheapest, while NA is definitely the most expensive one but that is kinda understandable due to economies of respective countries. But the problem for EU is that there is a huge economy difference in some EU countries. It still doesn't change the fact that bundles are ridiculous.- 450 replies

They are all just money grabbing whores so yes, it will be on sale in other words...

It has never been on sale again, however someone from WG has stated that Yubari, Gremy and Sims will be on sale again, approximately 1 year after the game release.

Did you check the modules you can research on your Bogue? You can have 3 different set ups on it. Besides the stock one (1/1/0, Fighter/TBs/Bomber) you also have one with 2/0/1 set up nd 0/1/2 and its up to you to choose which one you wanna play

Considering the fact that 21k Tirpitz bundles were sold, the majority of players is willing to spend a lot of dimes. The prices are influencing some players tho, not all, not the majority, but they certainly have an impact- 450 replies

IamTroublemaker replied to OldGrandad's topic in General Discussion
I agree, lower prices wouldn't attract new players, but would at least keep the old ones Commercials, ads, and personal suggestion bring new players. Personal suggestion could bring a lot of players, but as I said, since they don't seem to be willing to keep the "old" players, I don't see why would anyone suggest the game to someone.- 450 replies

The problem is that it would prove them that selling a ship alone brings more profit and both sides would be happy...- 450 replies

IamTroublemaker replied to OldGrandad's topic in General Discussion
The problem is that I want to buy two at the moment (Tirpitz the most) and if it's in a bundle, it means there will be gold in that bundle. So why buy Atago now (that is available for gold as well) instead of just wait for Tirpitz and the gold that will come in the bundle and add the missing gold to buy Atago. That way I would save some money as I'm not willing to spend more than I could. + I need something for rankeds and Atago doesn't seem like the best choice. Check your messages btw. And somehow I find it hard to believe more than 60% of active people bought it, but its just me and my point of view (I wasn't willing to pay that much for the ship at the time as I didn't need the gold/premium time)- 450 replies

IamTroublemaker replied to OldGrandad's topic in General Discussion
Well, so far it seems like WG didn't do much/anything about the players leaving the game, except that anime thing which seems like a relatively good move. Premium shop and inability to buy some ships for their value in gold, or in premium shop is a certain factor and I'm saying this from my point of view. I'm in a desperate need for a T8 premium ship as without credits I cannot buy high tier ships I've already unlocked and thus cannot progress further. And also I think the 20k Tirpitzes sold is for all servers, maybe. There is no way they've sold 20k on EU alone especially when you see that there is around 20k players online...- 450 replies

IamTroublemaker replied to OldGrandad's topic in General Discussion
How is making high (even though we don't know it) profit in short therm better than a bit lower profit on longer therm better? If they would just sell the ships unbundled, its obvious they would sell more. This way they are forcing us to buy gold and other goodies along with ships and there isn't much we can do with it due to the lack of content in premium shop which is due to BUNDLES. Yeah, the marketing people may have went to some fancy college, but that doesn't mean they know the market good. Some of the dumbest people I know finished college and are really bad at what they do...- 450 replies
