    Announcing SKIPPER

    It's just a bit of fun, whining about MM does nothing. It is as it is, it works and it doesn't, on average it works. You still play the game which is proof enough. I thought it funny enough, a bit early, but that might have to do with the reqions, I don't know :-). Happy April fools day!
  2. Hmm so you can MAX get 300, that means to get one "special" space camo for 600 moronium you have to shell out 10k doubloons... WOW, that's absurd... not even a half decent discount, 8k for looks only and you get what 20k coal (worst case scenario thats 50 containers with the worst luck in the world (and no daily wins or super containers)) and 40 "special" flags.. (of course in addition to the 2x240 moronium you get).. 10k doubloons, that's a STEEP price for.. But hey, who am I to complain, I won't waste time nor energy on neither quest nor offer. And I am ironically thankful for it, because it made my choice SUPER easy, I'll just focus on clan battles and the fly strike thing (to get those for free) and then just not bother about the moronium quests (as I know 100% certain I won't be able to grind to get even 1 of those camos without spending 10k doubloons (that's about 33€!!!! The price of a T8 premium DD or T7 premium BB!!!).. Advice: Don't bother, cool game mode which is worth a few games, but nothing more. Got nothing else to do? Probably better than watching paint dry, but not by much.
  3. Hmm 3 days added to the 750+ days I have... Hmm not worth a fart (besides you get these rewards in normal containers just playing).. For the one being "recruited", cool, you can get som pretty nifty stuff, have to play a bit though, but still.. Half decent for them, utter utter utter waste for me.. So, whilst the incentive is there for the recruited there is absolutely none for the recruiter, or rather negligible.. Sorry. Not to mention the premium shop has been a barren wasteland of really poor deals for months now, it's been free falling since December. It caters to new players, but utterly ignores veterans.. Saves me tons of money every month, but.. you lose out WG.. This is actually the first weekend with discounts on tech tree ships, nice.. Ages since doubloon conversion offer, or special doubloon offer.. Again, saves me tons of money and you once again lose out on some sales.. Mehh..

    Port UI & Client Stability Improvements

    Alas, pink is not a colour support will assist you with even if it is WG's fault you got it.. Ohh well, only 3 games.. stupid stupid stupid, they claim we'll be compensated, but the page they link to doesn't say much :-(.

    Port UI & Client Stability Improvements

    Port is sluggish, 2-3 disconnects today.. Should I open ticket or? Port seems to get worse with every update.. Now I am unable to connect and thus not able to finish the last daily mission chain. Everything on this page is also super sluggish. Takes 4-5 seconds just to reload this page, everything else on the net is smooth. Wow, seems like you guys are having massive issues, right now nothing works as it should. Game client unable to connect, last refresh of forum got me a timeout..... Wow. 4 refreshes later and the help portal still won't load, game won't connect. Nothing works, not able to register a ticket not able to play the game.. Going to bed p***** off... :-(.. Update: Managed to log into the game now, pink, as the game detected me as being AFK, sadly there's no logic in whether the user can log in or not. So I get that, submitted a ticket (as the entire EU site was unavailable for 30 minutes), hoping for a fix of the colour issue (pink.. :-)) and inability to finish mission.. PS! NA client and site works... EU is... correction was fubar..

    Premium Shop in March: Prinz Eugen

    I wholeheartedly agree. Last year these were available in 100 and 200 bundles, without Premium time. I've 2 years of premium time, I'll never spend money if it includes premium time.. That being said, I was 1 inch away on Friday to press "purchase", but sense prevailed and made me rethink my spontaneous reaction on this awesome camouflage being available in the premium store.. That being said, I've got over a million free after I bought Alaska, And captain exp is fairly easy to farm without these.. spend another 40€? Nah, sorry, 1. too expensive and 2. uninteresting bundle. If you don't have premium time, it's an ok deal for the 200#, not good, just ok.. Think last year I got 200 for 25 ish€....

    Rules of the "Fly! Strike! Win!" Event

    Of course I have, do you know how often you are top tier in T8? less than 10%... so, yeah.. Playing a CV at T8 in a T10 is a mixed bag of pain.. Saipan does ok in T10 due to T10 planes, but Kaga struggles, Enterprise is ok, as is Lexington and Choco... Anyway, CV rework is still in progress. And to be honest, I feel the moaning and wailing has subdued dramatically since it started. So some things WG must do right.. There's still a way to go, auto trigger of consumables is just plain stupid, autopilot is still heavily intoxicated (vodka mode?)... Really don't understand all this nonconstructive criticism, if you have an issue with something, explain why (not specifically aimed at anybody, just a general feel for the negativity among a few active voices on the forums)... Whatever, I just love the new CV's... I guess I'm one of the "few"..

    He he he he.. I love the new CV play, frustrating at times and rewarding, but then I have loads to learn.. Regarding CV's in game, I don't find them to be an issue when playing a DD anymore than before, in fact less so now (as a DD now can actually have a good AA setup without being Grozovoi or Kidd and that the CV can only focus on 1 DD at the time). There's about 40-50% of the games I play with CV's in them and I think they add a dimension to the game play that I've missed, before a CV was super dominant, now, not so much, they have an added role which don't pay them much in regards to silver or EXP; scouting, and they don't do absurd amounts of damage like devastating strikes anymore (really hard to get). Anyway, yes they're more frequent in games, but they're also less of a nuisance. The rework require all classes to think a bit differently, which is good, refreshes the game play. But, this new campaign, collection and containers seems dull, boring and frustrating. However, I do love the dragon flags so I'll probably buy a bundle or two (it also helps with oil for the clan so why not.. :-)). I'm a bit depressed that they only offer credits for ships you have as some of those you can get are premiums you should be given their full value in doubloons (as it has been before) or am I wrong and this is only for Edinburgh? (it says credits only in the article, which is why I'm a bit worried)... @MrConway? -Fesvil

    Premium Shop in February: Alaska

    Hrm... bonus dubbie deals on the NA.. up to 15% bonus doubloons when paying with cards... (MC or Visa).. long time since we had that on the EU I think? Get Azuma out there, get the modified Azuma out, get the Alaska out.. Another collector piece like the Wichita is nice, but like Vanguard it's a bit of a limp sausage... don't bring much to the table.... So, another month with nothing much to spend my hard earned cash on.. can't really complain, have 800ish days of premium (thanks for that offer)... Not quite sure I'll sell the CV's or not, but I guess not.. To me it's been a vacuum since Christmas.... that's 2 months ago soon....

    Premium Shop in February: Alaska

    There is nothing abusive in loot boxes! Is it gambling? In the sense that you're not guaranteed to get the item you desire, sure.. I'm against banning things that aren't harmful, you've got a brain, if you don't find loot boxes worth it, don't waste money on it. The age check is rather daft, but you need a valid payment solution, where I live you need to be 18 to get that, but there are ways around it, but under 16 I think you'll have a hard time without breaking the law (but I'm not certain). My comment was more in the way that it seemed you wanted to buy, but couldn't due to the country in which you reside. If you have got anything against a law passed by your government, you should complain. That's democracy, it's not a foreign company's duty to tell your government that they're wrong (if they are or not is not relevant). I agree they should put the items up for sale in the "premium" shop, I even think they would make a bit more money... To me the Irian was beyond a doubt the cheapest ship I've gotten yet in Wows (if you count all the other sweet stuff I got in the containers even more so). Then again, I'm not here to argue against your clear desire to be governed in that way, I just disagree in the way you put your point. And finally I agree it's a bit of a [edited] move to do it this way, but it's in the end about making money, and if they think they'll make more money this way, then that's how they'll do it (even if both you and I think it's a [edited] move and that they're wrong...).. So, I like freedom of choice, you don't, apart from that we're more or less agreeing on the same things.

    To be honest it is your responsibility as a citizen in said country to make sure your government understands the folly of their decisions, not a foreign company. But I also think WG should have made these available for purchase in-game for doubloons as they would probably earn some more moolah. The entire so-called "premium" shop has become dull and boring and REALLY lacks "special" offers and not retarded "special" like it is now..

    Premium Shop in February: Alaska

    You know... I used to not get it why people complain about the gambling, and I sort of still don't, you have a choice.. But, now I get some of the complaints, why can't WG just sell the things people really want, sure you can gamble and get lots of stuff, most useful in a way or another, but make the ones that love some of the work you do able to buy the special things, not just in the damn containers (how many different types of containers did we have for 2018? 10+ I think...).. I think you would earn a trifle more if you did... just my 2 pence (not spent as there is nothing fun to spend them on....)..

    Premium Shop in February: Alaska

    Bought the 3 ingame container bundles for a total price around 7800 doubloons, but I was lucky I guess. I have friends who bought the 38 container bundle and got only junk (hoping to get doubloons for the ships he already had, alas not so lucky).. I wish they would put out more diverse ships, ok the Irian is ok/good, not great and far from bad (it's Kutuzov after all, without the smoke, but with gimicky torps). I wish for more ships being available in many ways. What's taking Alaska so long (8 months since they teased a clan mate said.. wow.. )? What about that Neutered Sashimi Russian DD? Azuma v2.0.... The JB was no replacement for the Musashi as it wasn't available for free exp, only hard cold cash or coal... So, for now theres no available free exp ship at all at T9, none... I heard rumors about 1.4m Fexp cost for Alaska, that's just plain ridiculous, got to be, the price equivalent of that in doubloons with 1:30 exchange rate is even absurd (1m at 1:30 is 33.333 doubloons , 1,4m is 46.667 doubloons, both prices makes these ships by far the most expensive in game.., but you can grind them..)... Anyway, the game has been pretty stale for the last 2-3 months I feel, nothing special except a never ending variety of different containers with content of usually pretty lame quality... Was better before.. Halloween containers 2018 were laughable, 2017 were awesome.. Christmas 2015 were cool, secret santa, no containers. Christmas 2016 were cool, good containers with good chance of ships, 2017 were good, 2018 were pretty lame.. New year, 2017 camos were crap, crap, crap, 2018 much better.. The hunt for graf spee were so much m,ore fun than the crazy grind for the Prinz... Same with Cossack and British destroyers, french BB's, and now soon, British CV's... To be honest, I'm losing interest in even looking at the specials for each month, because they're the same, nothing new, very very rarely something interesting or good... The offers are the same (specials you used to call them) as they have been for the last century... The specials are like the board outside the restaurant, they change daily based on a weekly rotation, nothing new, predictable and oh so very boring after having tried everything on the menu. You need to revitalise the premium shop, or just drop the premium tag and call it a shop, not even "the" shop... It reminds me of the quote: "Nothing to see, move along!". So, there's nothing special about February's deals or offers, money saved, for now.. The kid inside hopes for something spectacular every month, but he's getting bored.. WG, please..

    [UPD 11/2] Update 0.8.0.2 Hotfix

    Go to Inventory, under Aircraft carriers I think you can get all back.. I know I still can.. tempting with 1.5m free exp and 48.2k doubloons.. But, mehh..
  17. Hmmm boy did they up AA x 10 compared to the test servers.. holy.. Matchmaking in kaga is a no go, T7 planes in a T8+ match you can give up, if you're meeting T7-T9, you have a chance with T7 and some T8, T9 will eat all your planes.. Trying to get more steel using coop will screw you doubly over as your bots are just INSANELY much worse than the other team.. 3 kills and 100k damage and you will still lose... Problem is there's too many that wants to play coop.. which sucks.. but ohh well.. time time time time.. Move to T10 and it's a different story.. MUCH more fun.. planes actually can take a fair beating if you use all skills and modules to buff them... I was more comfortable in midway compared to Hakuryu, mainly because the rockets are super on midway (use the "tiny" ones)..Hakuryu rockets are utterly useless against BB's.. On average I have 70-80% shatter on BB's.. DD's you do good damage to. But DD vs KAGA attack = DD wins, you may get 1 salvo off. Dodging is no longer a good strat, most AA detonate on your plane so you can't dodge.. had my entire squad of kaga torps die in less than 5s trying to torp a cleve land.. probably defensive AA.. So, KAGA is ruined when up tiered and now there's a lot of CV's playing = always uptiered.. Haven't tried enterprise or saipan, but saipan has T10 planes, should fare better.. Hated the old system, love the new, but it is so insanely unbalanced at the moment...
  18. I have loads of duplicates, enough to complete it without problems. You get this container in the mighty prinz campaign as well.... Don't worry..
  19. Super, Thanks, Much appreciated! Although I sort of feel the last one is one you don't follow so I'll pay less attention on following that. The rest, duly noted.
  20. Sorry for asking a question, could you please give a quick guide to how to post patient and correct questions? And if you also have a set way of how to phrase statements, I'd really appreciate it as I'd hate to offend you in the future.
  21. Any reason why our web shop takes 24 hours to add new content where as NA content is available in store the second the patch hits? Yesterday the 07.12 patch hit the NA server and in the premium shop was all the things you'd expect, but here in EU things take a while to be posted. In effect they then have 1 day more to complete all the missions and stuff (not that I do think that matters).. Just curious why we always have to wait until Friday before anything is made available, but it's a different practice elsewhere...
  22. Wow, nice to farm the next F.exp ship in 8 matches or less :D
  23. You get 2 for free from WG, if you want to give some to others you have to pay for them and can then send them. That's why they call them Santa's gifts. This time of the year these things are quite common, at least where I live.. Anyway, merry Christmas!
  24. Btw still getting containers, not sure how many I've gotten so far (6ish perhaps?)..
  25. If you spend the money you've saved on Wows crates on something else, you've saved nothing :-).. Wish there would be some way of proving that you're 18 years old and thus would have to legalise it. Or?
