Armo1000 Alpha Tester 686 posts 650 battles Report post #1 Posted April 22, 2015 So it seems that there is no hope for the RN any time soon. as many of you will know WG is focused on appeasing the Russian community and has pushed the RN to 4th or maybe even 5th place. However for those of us that want to play the RN ASAP there is hope. WG have stated that HMS Warspite and some other well known ships will be making it into the game allot sooner as premiums. Personally i don't think that such a well known ship such as Warspite should be a premium however that is a discussion for another day. I am just happy we will be getter her sooner than the RN tree. The question in hand is when will this be? I expect before release sometime but when during this time is uncertain. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deamon93 Sailing Hamster 3,124 posts 1,275 battles Report post #2 Posted April 22, 2015 I guess around the start of OBT since, apparently, there won't be a wipe between OBT and release. Then again it's just an assumption. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[DUDS] Crooq_Lionfang Beta Tester 1,999 posts 6,434 battles Report post #3 Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) Don't forget that we already have two soviet ships as premiums, and the first premiums of a nation come before the trees. Just because the RN tree won't come next (RU will) doesn't mean the Warspite which was said to be a premium, won't come during Beta edit: just looked it up, they specifically said in the "What's Next" article that they plan to introduce Warspite (among others) during Closed Beta.

[-GOD-] McLeod [-GOD-] Weekend Tester 399 posts 7,184 battles Report post #4 Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) They have already said that Warspite will be a premium ship added during CBT, it was in the what's next for WoWs article here: http://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/common/what-next-2015/ I reckon they'll probably add it in 3.2 with a couple other premiums. I can understand them making popular ships premiums as the interest in those ships will be high the likelihood of people buying them will also be high, all marketing really.

Deales Alpha Tester 193 posts 1,783 battles Report post #6 Posted April 22, 2015 Tbf with Warspite there is 4 ships of the class all in different configurations so it makes sense that 1 of them becomes a premium especially if it performs well and builds some more hype towards the RN tree (no more hype needed) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lobster1234 Beta Tester 161 posts 145 battles Report post #7 Posted April 22, 2015 Warspite and Bismarck or Tirpitz will maybe come with Patch 3.1 as Premium Ships^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OnboardG1 Beta Tester 202 posts 4,490 battles Report post #8 Posted April 22, 2015 The post seems to suggest that Bismark will be the prem and Tirpitz the line ship, which makes sense given that Tirpitz should get the AA upgrades. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[MAD] Markhand [MAD] Beta Tester 86 posts 3,947 battles Report post #9 Posted April 22, 2015 Tirpitz have several updates and upgrades making it ideal for the lineship. Something Bismarck did not. Tirpitz paintjob was alot cooler if i recall.... We should also put in mind that the topic for the changes doesnt mention everything, and they will probably withheld Warspite and Bismarck info until the last second. We will know within 1 and a half week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DumbleDerp Beta Tester 659 posts Report post #12 Posted April 28, 2015 Warspite. Beautiful ship with a lot of power and a lot of history. I can't wait to see her in the game. Might never even take her out to sea - would be too heartbreaking to see her sink Gerudan, on 28 April 2015 - 10:39 AM, said: You will probably get the Warspite rather soon: http://worldofwarships.asia/en/news/common/welcome-warspite/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[DUDS] Crooq_Lionfang Beta Tester 1,999 posts 6,434 battles Report post #15 Posted April 28, 2015 (edited) Oops, sorry, just saw the quoted part and didn't check your links that came after. As of now the WG EU support site doesn't list a patch for tomorrow (yet), but that can change. Or it can come on thursday instead. Edit: that Asia announcement is strange: on the one hand it says it'll be here till end of CBT, which sounds like preorder stuff, on the other hand it's price is in tokens, while everything built with tokens is going to be wiped and the tokens put back into the account at CBT end Edited April 28, 2015 by Crooq_Lionfang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gerudan Beta Tester 203 posts 3,197 battles Report post #17 Posted April 28, 2015 I'm not sure if it is correct and will come tomorrow already, but the EU EN twitter account also teased it so it can't be that far away from being released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
