The opt-in button has now appeared for the "Nelson on the Bridge mission" - its inside the June Mission Briefing web-page. https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/common/june-missions-2018/ Happy hunting, all!

Confirmed. They've added the opt-int button to the mission briefing now. (Seems it was delayed in other regions as well)

Well, the current NA Takao mission is for a single month and ends on 1st December - 1 month before the end of year and the Arpeggio license lapses. It has been mentioned/hinted that their final December mission (1st December to 1st January) will make the previous ships available again, much like the current EU mission. Our EU mission is 2 months duration from 1st November to 1st January, and combines the 2 into one (Takao and previous ships).

Wow, I was actually looking forwards to this event. More fool me, eh! I have a Tier 8 (silver) ship, and this would allow me aim for Takao... on the US, SEA and RUS servers (In other words, *all* other servers apart from EU). But its not good enough for EU, apparently. Makes me so "happy" to be on the EU server. While I do think that a Tier VI requirement is a bit on the low side (I was actually surprised at the other severs), but whats wrong with needing a Tier VIII to earn a Tier VIII?

I had a similar issue. My download started fast as usual (~4 MB/s) and then slowly decreased in speed as time went on. After an hour, it was down to 200Kb/s or less. Strange thing was, I simply paused the download via the button on the launcher. Hit resume after a few seconds, and it shot back up to 4MB/s. Strange (And very annoying).

This was mentioned on the WoWs Asia website. They have apparently added voices for Haruna & Kirishima in their latest patch. "When used in battle, special voiceovers will play for Commander "Haruna" and Commander "Kirishima (Yotaroh)"." Their current Arpeggio mission rewards also give a possible teaser of the next EU Arpeggio ships.

I had a winning match against the Phantom over the weekend, and the flags were awarded sometime today. I just logged in a few minutes ago and they were all there. So no, 3x XP is not the reward.

In other MMOs there are usually options to block messages from certain individuals in chat. Is there no way to do this in WOWs? If not, should the option be there to do so? Every now and again (thankfully rare!) you have someone who dies early (Its always their teams fault ) and then spends the entire rest of the match spamming chat with insults and "advice". Most times this amuses me no end . The problem is that actual useful messages or warnings for the team get lost in the spam as this goes on and on. Simply reporting players for chat abuse is not really enough, as the game is over by that point and you will probably not see them in game anytime soon again (Thankfully). I know that there are mods that remove the entire chat, but this seems overkill to me as you lose helpful messages again. Would it not be easier to have the UI option, during the match, to right-click on player name & block the player. And they vanish from your chat window. The block list could be stored locally on your machine if need be. Or is this a feature that Wargaming in general is not too bothered about (I have not played any of their other games).
