Why is the EU Tier X DD "Smaland" considered "over popular" (in light of DevBlog: Changes in availability of several ships)?
_HomTanks_ replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
Nah.. if kitakami comes it would be available via cash. It is a golden opportunity for wg to make good money out of it, remove it from sale after a while, create some demand when it is not for sale, then put it on sale again and make even more money. What would they gain if they make kita for free xp? Nothing. -
[POLL] Have you played new "Key Battle" Halloween event battle type? Do you like it?
_HomTanks_ replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
Like I wrote, one may find it fun or unfun. If it is unfun to you, don’t play, simple. If you are only playing this game to get fxp or cmd xp, go to random or other modes. For the ones who find this mode fun enough to play, the rewards are overwhelming. -

Total rewards reached to a very good point with new additions. 38 special signals, 2 super containers, a patch in addition to a free T9 and T8 camo, 3 six point commanders, 3 day premium time, 100 temporary camos, and silver exchangeable points, plus the Gale and Valkyrie missions rewards. All these are given for free if you play. I don't understand the prejudgemental approach from some players to this event. Same as every other event in the past, some may find this event fun or some may not 'X' event in the past more fun, but here we are WG offering all these goodies for free, I wonder how long people will keep complaining... Then again, I don't really care. It is your loss if you don't play. -
When will thunderer be removed?

Whoever says that they don’t ever pull a Notser would be lying 😁

Well, a haru popped up behind a rock once about 5km to me. His teammates and mine were also behind rocks so it was only two of us. No smoke no radar no skill, brute firing power non stop while sailing full speed parallel to each other. In the end, our last shots killed each other. This is raw pew pew. It would be the same outcome whether one of was the best dd player or worst as there was nowhere to run, no rock to hide, smoke would not help, torps were used. So, in your example yes it would be to your advantage in Smaland if you could catch a haru in smoke. And it would be to your advantage in Harugumo if you catch a Smaland half life or without the boost or with teammates backing you up as It is really difficult to kill one alone.

Will retired (premium, coal, freexp etc.) ships return at some point?

I see, thanks. I have PR, was just wondering whether it was on sale at any point because I wasn’t sure. Yep, thanks. -

But you don’t like crates -
A decent Smaland player can take you out in Haru, so don’t attack every Smaland you see :)

Right. I was addressing Musashi and Kron mainly. Edit: I don’t remember but maybe I’m missing, did we ever see PR in crates or sale for cash? -

Kuznetsov, you mean Kutuzov. Plus, Fujin, Enterprise, Iwaki Alpha, Arkansas Beta, Nikolai. -
Well, even this much sounds quite a lot of work. No worries and thanks for the info my friend 👍🏻

There is no information on whether removed ships will be available on sale for in game resources again, though, they are obtainable via new year crates as you guessed. While new players may not have those ships, a tremendous amount of people got them, especially Musashi and Musashi is as broken as Belfast. It is basically a Yamato in tier 9 facing tier 7 ships. Kron is strong but so are other SCs. -
Smaland and Halland may seem similar on paper but are different in practice. For general pop. Smaland would be more difficult to play with weaker AA and torps than Halland. But it has its own gimmicks as being a better gun boat, speed boost plus radar. IMO, no ship is worth for 2 million fxp (seriously wth??). It depends a lot what ships you have, what you want to have, which classes and or nations you like to play when it comes to deciding to get Smaland or not. I would suggest it for collectors, veterans and competitive players but i would not suggest it to beginners and casuals (at least not for such a price tag).

Good call, change is always good, not to mention those ships have been around for quite a while. -

Ping is set to -35 in replays.

Yes, the torps you thought that passed by you. It’s the de-synchronization between server and client.

[POLL] Have you played new "Key Battle" Halloween event battle type? Do you like it?
_HomTanks_ replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
^^ What Ramses mentioned was something different, if you didn't escape via portal, and before the Octagon you were the last survivor, isn't there an award for it? I get Ramses' point and he has one. At the end of the battle this pops up on the screen "Last survivor will be awarded". In this case, what it means is, Player XYZ did not grab a key and escape (or had a key but couldn't escape), did not go to Octagon but he/she will still get the double point of whatever he/she achieved until then. That "last survivor getting double Bs is THE award" part is not clear and this detail is not mentioned in Big Hunt web page either but possible to understand it by playing -

No other achievement so far. No because it's not really something special to be the last one alive before Octagon battle begins. It just means that everyone fought so fierce to get the keys, killed each other for them and only four of them were able to manage getting out via portal, while 1 person was cruising around and enjoying the scenery or shooting everyone randomly near the portal but far enough to be hurt and making sure he' would stay alive. Naturally, when others escape via portal or die trying it, the only remaining person has no one else to fight against before or after the Octagon and this is not any sort of an achievement. If we relate it to Random games, it is not something like Solo Warrior. It is more like a camping BB at J line. Why would a BB at J line get any special award for it? -
git gud.

They needed QC checks with the bugs not design. According to your logic ships with over 100knots and torps with 200knots shouldn't have existed and eventually the event shouldn't have existed. Which ones, name them? I do. No it wouldn't. Just to give you an example, i once hit a T7 enemy cruiser having around 10K HP left with 8 torps, each torp dealing 14400dmg, and he didn't sink after all torps landed on him. Check about saturation below; https://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Damage_Saturation

If you are talking about Barracudas, one of them causes 7K + damage. From far distance, ships and creatures usually evade most of them. Try using them from close distance although they have 10km range and single launch. Enemy ship may have saturated parts or shield active. Once the shield is off, they are easy to kill. As you can launch so many Barracudas at once. Balance is never needed in such events. It is an event, a temporarily designed fun mode with unreal creatures and environment. Also, you think a ship going 115knots or torps going as fast as 200 knots are balanced but torps hitting saturated parts of the ships causing low damage (which is a game mechanic btw) is unbalanced?
