[DC_DK] hgbn_dk Players 3,370 posts 44,373 battles Report post #1 Posted August 8, 2018 Been wondering about how these new T-IX premiums can be obtained when released, will they be available in the arsenal for coal and/or free XP premiums only??? Can anyone from WG shed some lights on this or is it a closely guarded company secret?? I am not asking for the price of the ships nor their release date. @Tuccy @MrConway @Crysantos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, I said the public relations department might not know what the planning department is doing. And yes, it IS a rule that they're not allowed to talk about this sort of thing until news are announced, been that way for ages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[THROW] wilkatis_LV [THROW] Players 5,061 posts 10,702 battles Report post #14 Posted August 8, 2018 @ForlornSailor I mean, @lafeel is right - the answer would be something along the lines of "even if we knew we couldn't tell you" It might easily be the case that they are developing a premium, but the way how it will be acquired is not finalized yet. There might have be "ideas", but nothing certain. Just look at the Musashi - everyone was well informed about the ship and where it will sit in the tech tree long before the price was finalized near her release.

[DC_DK] hgbn_dk Players 3,370 posts 44,373 battles Report post #15 Posted August 8, 2018 It would be easier if just they made their mind up on what currencies to use for what... Right now we have credits( not going to be used on this) Doubloons ( probably only useable to convert to free xp) Coal a likely candidate) Free XP ( also likely) Steel ( heaven forbids) Or as regular premium shop sale for real cash, which would be a new practice...And most unlikely. If they are out to confuse their customers about this they are doing a great job. Just a simple and relevant question from a confused customer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[DC_DK] hgbn_dk Players 3,370 posts 44,373 battles Report post #17 Posted August 8, 2018 While I can understand their reasons for dividing Premiums up in multiple categories, to control the flow of said ships in battles when being released. Regular premium shop item, everyone with a valid credit card is able to purchase. regardless of skill or battles played, being the the least restrictive and servers will be flooded. Free XP still obtainable for cash, provided you have the elite XP to convert. This will slow down the flow a little. But still a lot of ships. Coal theoretical available for cash if you buy enough event containers and exchange the tokens for other containers containing coal. This will probably be the most limiting in regards of ships seen in battles. This is only pure speculation on my part... Reality might differ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TORAZ] El2aZeR Beta Tester 15,786 posts 26,801 battles Report post #19 Posted August 8, 2018 C'mon guys, it's easy to find out! Here's how: - pick a class - if you've picked BBs any sister ship of a regular high tier tech tree BB (that is not a premium yet) can be a candidate - if you've not picked BBs, find a ship in that class that will most resemble a BB in characteristics/playstyle and voila, you have your T9 premium candidate - discard all other ships that do not resemble BBs - if you've picked CVs, uninstall the game immediately Seriously though, can we finally get some T9 premiums that aren't (pseudo-)BBs? 4 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
