No comment on "we don't care about your feedback" ? Thanks for confirming even though we all knew that already.

Exactly. I opened 12 random bundles with British tokens. Got NO ship from them.

"Nice" way of getting out attention to the Dockyard by making it golden-flashy. WG seems very DESPERATE. And don't tell me this is not related because WG made PR fiasco related to this update as well and it's perfectly on-topic.

Sure, rentals are a thing... because someone who did not research a single T10 ship and never played it will probably do great in a T10 rented ship without any captain skills etc. Whatever. All I'm saying is that almost everything is focused on T10 and nothing else. Rentals for CBs are irrelevant and have nothing to do with that.

Recently (last few months) I play co-ops almost exclusively. I find them more relaxing and less toxic than Random battles. That being said, WG is doing all they can to fuk up the co-op mode by making the battles shorter thus nerfing the rewards and the economic viability of playing them.

Whenever I read "Puerto Rico" on the forums, I imagine a pile of horseshit. And when I see it in-game I can actually visualize it.

WG added a flashing golden splash now to attract the last naive people they have in their player base. So desperate.

Yeah, these "early access" to new lines is a poor scamming attempt. It has been poor since it was introduced and it's getting worse and less appealing each time. I mean from a limited amount of bundles you can get, only with the temporary tokens relevant to the event... we came to unlimited random bundles that have lower chances of a ship drop than ever alongside premium bundles that you have to spill 1,000 doubloons for each one. WG calls that improvement, I think it's an insulting joke. But... as I always say... as long as there are stupid players buying into it, they will continue to do it. It's quite simple actually.

There was someone on the forums few days ago (too lazy to find the post) who got a single ship I believe out of 13-14 premium bundles he bought. EDIT: Here it is. Well, it isn't clear if he got anything before than T8 but to me it sounds like that's the one and only ship he got from 13-14k doubloons. "A bit" overpriced, huh? Not the only one but as I said - I'm too lazy to search for those posts. I found this one because I remembered I replied to it straight away.

My post from the other thread, also relevant to this one... : Same here. Not sure if I opened 11 or 12 (lost count and WG made sure you cannot track anywhere how many you opened so far) but not a sign of a ship. Seems like these drop chances are lower than ever and WG wants us to pay the 1,000 doubloons to have a tiny but higher chances. No, thank you - I don't endorse and financially support manipulative scammers.

I see options "I don't care" but actually "WG doesn't care".

Every time I think they cannot make an event worse than the previous one, they prove me wrong. UNLIMITED RANDOM BUNDLES, with no guarantee of a ship drop. Does that sound appealing to anyone? What do the spreadsheets say? Players' feedback is very positive? Ask Boyarski, huh?

WG wants you to pay 1k doubloons for the 'premium bundles' or whatever they are called. Even though so far I've seen many complains about low chances with those as well. WG keeps miscalculating and shooting themselves in the knee.

Have you checked the ping during those 'freezes'? I bet the reason are ping spikes caused by WG servers. If so, it's a known issue but WG has done nothing in the last month or so to fix it.

Any battle mode should always count towards directives and daily missions. That's the only logical way of doing things, especially for most players who have limited time for a game. I won't even comment on such lame excuses given here, not worth commenting because they make no sense whatsoever.

So you can get the same ship twice? (2nd time just a compensation for it) That's a brilliant idea from WG. I mean.. I'm not getting any ship at all because you made the chances as low as possible but out of those tiny chances you made it so that the same ship can drop more than once? Brilliant indeed. Even when I think you can't make them any worse, you still manage to do so. Unbelievable.

And I asked you nicely to tell me where is that claim coming from. From the spreadsheets? Can you provide some data for us? Even if you have such data, you're aware that the short battle time isn't the core issue here but correlated to the issue I write in every post!? (read below or any of the previous posts) Keep your cynicism to yourself, please. It doesn't work. You're either still missing the whole point or you're just pretending you're not seeing it. You do know that the short co-op battles aren't the core issue we're discussing here, don't you? The main issue is the one I'm repeating from post to post but seems you choose to ignore it or have real issues understanding. Check any of my posts or even the last one where I talk about the 3 ships left alive when the battle ends and the nearly 175,000 HP that no player took a piece from. That's the real issue @MrConway. I hope now it makes more sense (still can't believe I have to draw the issue every single post) so you can spare me the cynic responses that don't help at all. No, I definitely can't be a representative of anyone here.That's why I invited you to open a poll and see it for yourself. Why don't you do it? Because we both know what would be the result? I did not post results from a single battle. I posted results for many battles and if you think it's necessary I can post results from every co-op battle I play? Would that change anything in your eyes? Of course it won't because it's just me, right? Well, did you see the screenshots and posts from other forum members? I'm pretty sure you did even though you're repeating that I'm the only one complaining about the short co-op time and limited rewards as a result of that. Do you want me to quote those or you saw them but chose to ignore? No, we won't. Because instead of you presenting any arguments or even data (which you have and I don't), you're ignoring most of my replies and focusing on something which is not even the real issue. I'm not asking that the teams go back to 8 vs 8 because that would NOT solve the problem, at all. Points are the problem no matter how many players there are. This has been made clear so many times that I believe I don't have to elaborate further even though it seems you're still not getting what the real issue is here. Maybe now you will. If not, tell me and I'll explain it in more detail (or quote myself from some of many threads related to this issue), just focus a bit and try to understand instead of being cynical with your replies and read to give up saying "we won't find a resolution in this thread". Issues should be discussed, maybe we won't find a solution here but you shouldn't give up so easily and quickly. Especially when on the other side you have someone who is talking nicely and giving constructive criticism with facts and observations instead of writing in CAPS LOCK, insulting etc. (like many other threads lately).

Yes, they did. CVs were never mentioned though. "Missing" would be the new ones that never had the UUs, not the ones that got disabled by WG. I mean, we'll see. We know nothing but that is a problem.

So far, every operation has been destroyed by WG introducing bugs that were never present before. Seems like "Aegis" is no exception.

Did you get the first one from the random bundle as well? Seems like a terrible bug because if you can get the same ship twice then the whole bundles would be even more hilarious than I thought. Maybe @MrConway or @Crysantos can check.

Since there is no reply (I wonder why, huh?), here's another example... I'd call it quite representative... Battle time: 04:12. Three ships left alive on the bots team, 2 BBs and a CV. Those 3 have a total of 175,000 HP and only one Bb was scratched, otherwise full HP. I managed to engage only 2 ships (sank both of them) and the battle was over before anyone could get a piece of that 175,000 HP which is not insignificant. You'll also note 2 bots in my team so if 2 players would be instead of them (especially CV), the battle might have ended even sooner and I'd do even poorer (along all other players in my team, obviously). I'd also like a response to the previous message where I quoted you and left quite a few question marks. Or ignoring the questions and waiting for it to go away is a new strategy from WG? I hope not. @MrConway

Which might as well be never. There is absolutely nothing pointing in a direction of CV's UUs and with the current state of the CVs and all the bugs related to them it's clear that UUs for CVs won't be coming any time soon.

Yeah, seems like you forgot how it was for you to get all those T10 ships you own now, huh? Or you're saying that now it's much easier than it used to be? Tell that to the new players who come to WOWs, try it out and then leave after few days, never to return.
