Do ships even drop from these btw? I find it deeply disappointing (to say the least) that Wargaming are not obliged to publish the drop rates for the contents of paid-for containers. Only Belgium and the Netherlands have consumer protection laws relating to this (so I understand). This is something that the EU and/or national governments should fix by passing new laws, or applying any existing ones which are relevant. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you definitely make a good point on the droprate point. It's a bit of a problem that it's (in theory) all too easy to con ones customers. One could even create different droprates for different crates that appear identical externally (for example, give the CCs 15 of the (imaginary) HappyCrates with 50% droprate and sell in the shop HappyCrates with drop rate 25%. But internally their names could be HappyCrates1 and HappyCrates2 and the customers have no way of knowing as both share identical crate animations and visible names). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBH I think WG 'seed' players with good results so other players in game see the potential and buy also, sorta like a virus, not everyone gets ill but everyone carries it. It's also the reason why I don't bother with flags camo and prem modules etc, you add those and the match you next go into make them pointless, eg AA, equip ship -with prime AA buffs and for the next 7-8 matches no CV take them off, next match CV! you just waisted 8 matches worth of AA. so now you have to buy more, or win more 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't make a lot of sense if you ask me. They could...but I think it's unlikely that they would. Of course things can always have exceptions, but discussing this (I mean this even could include something like botters) may go into semantics and won't really help being discussed by us here on the forums I think. I used to think this, but I highly suspect this is just confirmation bias and obviously any human can be wrong, and this includes me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise known as 'mudflation' go look it up. If being 'active' means spending 4 hours a day playing one game, then the game can frankly *edit off, it's a game, not a job. There is a fine line between offering free stuff and making that free stuff a chore to get. The last year has shown Wargaming making it a chore, over and over. It's not time gated you could do it all on the day it released if you wanted to. Even at a modest average of 1500 base XP, it's 34 games, over a 2 week period. The other parts are not difficult to do with the amount of flags and camo's wargaming throw at us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On my alt EU account, where I haven't played a battle in a year, i got an Atago B from the daily shipment BS container. On my NA account, where I haven't played in 5 months, I got... You guessed it, the Atago B from the daily BF BS container. I have less than 500 games combined on these accounts, haven't spent any money on them. On my "main" account tho, this account (almost 9k battles, spent quiet some money on it), I opened two of these crappy containers (for the 50k captain XP grind and the daily shipment container), I got 8 shadowhorsepoop camos... So yeah. If you want some nice _free_ stuff, you have to stop playing the game, it seems. Gotta love these fair, nice, gamble kinda containers. They are the best, aren't they? And when you have these as some "GREAT REWARDS" for some laughably intense grinding, and you have 50 ramming flags in them, or 5 useless camos, boy, they were worth the grind... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
