At least in operations I can pick my own teammembers. Yay for me.

Btw, hoping this new German BB will finally get the Secondary Battery Reload Booster!

As is now, there aren't any replacements in the armory (yet).

Just wondering, would it make sense to wait till you get the premiumship container (so there is a chance at getting the now coal ship), and then get it for coal so you could get dubs if it happens to be the same ship?

The kitty purrfurst flag has been gifted out in earlier patches. I've had it since somewhere last year at the least. I don't remember exactly how I got it though, but it may have been a separate mission (chain) for which you needed to opt in on the website.

I am not absolutely sure he was away from the game for 3 months straight. But if he was, it would have been somewhere during the previous year. If there may be a bug and this re-recruit feature had not been implemented yet at that time (ftr, I have no notion of such a bug existing), perhaps it would still be a good idea to investigate as any bug may cause unforeseen problems somewhere down the road. I am however absolutely sure that he has only been put into the re-recruit category very recently (which means somewhere roughly a month ago) and all this time he was not away for 90 days. If this is a new feature only implemented since one patch or so ago, I would be happy if you could investigate Could you tell me when this feature was actually implemented? I'm pretty sure that if he was away for 90 days, he did not become a re-recruit when ie came back last year.

I couldn't find this information ingame or on the website. Till when will the 1 day rentals and the Dasha captains in the armory be available? Anyone know?

Even more speshuul, this was still a win after some heroics by me, the wooster and 2 of the battleships I think, after an epique carry

Personally I felt the same exhilaration when I got my first 19pt captain Getting at least 1 should be in any wows guide for newbs

Correct. I don't have the tab on my alt accounts

I wouldn't describe it as decent though. Can you imagine getting worse dispersion if you move (which would actually be more realistic but that's besides the point) or getting worse dispersion if you didn't pay doubloons when you recruited your captain? On NA, teamplay has also gone downhill for me. On EU is is bad but it has been this bad for a longer while now (or at least roughly since server transstuffs became a thing). Playing BB has become pretty bad if your DDs are suiciding, as BB is the least independent class in the game in many ways. If only because you can be described as a huge hulking blind mole compared to the other classes. My guess is that becoming more dependent and the win becoming more important equals more frustrating matches. This is also why coop and operations are generally speaking less frustrating.

They always have. Dasha was put inside a studio and did all the recordings, very similarly to how Jingles and Ovenchicken did

The words 'pay up' don't have this meaning though and especially in his context. And I'll be straight with you that starting a semantical discussion about this is not what I see as a good way to waste my time

The research bureau is part of the armory. There's an extra tab to the left, see here:

Tier 7 doesn't have one crucial upgrade in the 5th upgrade slot. This increases conceilment as well as increasing dispersion for shells aimed at you. Especially tier 7 destroyers may find it harder getting uptiered because of this. Tier 9 used to be in a bad spot and personally I am happy with where tier 9 is atm. Tier 10 used to be kinda a gigantic leap from tier 9, making the longest grind seem very long indeed

NA seems to have become a lot more toxic though. Used to be the other way around. Btw, EU does not seem to have become more toxic, or at least afaict. Players on both servers seem pretty bad these days, but this is an entire debate by itself (like the release of more minicruisers in DD slots). I totally dislike the RNG in for instance the crates. I'm ok with things like dispersion though. I don't like the game seems to have been trying harder to simply get me addicted to spend more and more time instead of making the game a better game. I'm not saying the game is not becoming better because in many ways it is (especially coop seems to be in a good place right now). Randoms and operations are not so good right now. CB remained the same it was before and ranked doesn't seem to have changed that much. I don't like carriers in either of these gamemodes though.

Are these 8 KotS crates all from watching KotS? Because I thought there were just 4 in total available from watching KotS during the 2 weekends I thought it was broadcast on twitch. I did finish the KotS mission chain which was good for 5 or 6 of these crates?

He will now have to pay for the legendary upgrade, or not have one. I'm not sure why this is new to you, all of us vets know we can't get the missions anymore.

I know. But this way not all captains sound like this and the voiceover is always there on the ship that I want. But I could of course try the voice out on a carrier (which is what I would want another Dasha for). I already have one from back when Dasha was for some event token

Because the missions for the legendary upgrades can't spawn anymore.

So you know till when the rentals will remain available?

A captain in the armory. She has a unique voiceover which imo is quite well done.

Yep. You're gonna have to pay up now :|

The number of players seems to be increasing. Or at least on EU. I see >30k regularly nowdays where it used to be more 20k-24k ish max. There's a lot of new players coming into the game. It apparently is correctly assumed that WG prefers to push for tiers 9 and 10 premiums now, along with some tier 8. Or at least they are laying more emphasis upon those tiers now.

Same experience with Missouri guns. Texas is definitely not OP or anything, but she worked fine for me last times I played her and I still found her fun to play.
