Discount on tech tree ships

[SamuraiShakaViking]

Hello,

 

I cannot find the mention of the duration of the discount  on all tech tree ships... nor on when the discount on port slots, and also starting a clan start and end,,,,

 

I guess it is somewhere there on the news page, but I couldn't find it though.

 

My searches here didn"t either.

 

Is there an in game client that shows detail on special , eg the discount on starting a clan & its duration.

 

In general the UI is very sketchy in english for some of us.

 

Also there have always been buggy the friends list and groups and channels, was always very frustrating. but now since this update I cannot open friend list at all....

 

Im trying to 'recruit' my friends who left the game to return, trying to find incentives to persuade them, eg better UI and QOL improvements.

 

Please advise where to check out for these discount incentives and their duration,

 

Thanks

Discount for Port Slots

 

Start: Wed. 29 May 07:00 CEST (UTC+2) / your local time: Wed. 29 May 07:00

End: Wed. 26 Jun. 07:00 CEST (UTC+2) / your local time: Wed. 26 Jun. 07:00

 

You'll be able to take advantage of a discount for Port slots during Update 0.8.4.

 

Discounts and bonuses:

300 100 for 1 Port slot.

 

 

There is no active tech tree ship discount currently. That's probably due to your clan base.

oh yeah clan discount.

 

I miss the reasonably regular % off to Tier VIII, then 30% etc. sales, for a line, or nation. Like top of the tree in WoT, its a good incentive. or the occasional premium shop offering the same discounts too.'

 

Those regular sales would definitely attract and retain (desperately needed) new players to the dwindling  playerbases.

 

As would permitting Africa to play the game fairly; fastest growing youth pop, and tech infrastructure. Africa is full of ex-pats; eg. peacekeepers, ngo's, interns, volunteers, and ,any other typical gamer. , And Africa is right next  to WG in Cyprus!?!?!. Egypt with its 80million plus pop., Nigeria with nearly 200 million (and a very developed tech/comms/ IT sector Id volunteer to WG to assist them get this vibrant gaming continent to fair access to the EU, to resolve the latency issue  , or better yet new global servers, like any other global MMO..

 

Im alarmed how long you have to wait in queue, quite a lot more often often , since the cv "rework", especially at low and medium tiers... with grinding the USSR bb's and for the British cv's. It definitely  shows not enough active game community growth, retention and expansion... the game is getting very obviously  top heavy , hence the extra expensive high tier premiums.

 

The discount on port slots is good, but should be available for credits; so counterproductive to limit a (especially new) players expansion , and make it  pay to play to get slots and dismount modules too, which should also be possible with credits. New players need every incentive and QOL boosts and benefits. Im try to recruit some of my friends who left Wot then WoWs. But I have so little incentives to get them interested again. Especially with the (im)balanced CV "re-work"  , World of Warplanes meta now.

 

The vertical top heavy direction on the PC mode is obviously not a sustainable game nor business model.

 

Healthy growth and expansion is only possible by consistently attracting and retaining more players snowballing on a more exponential basis.

 

And there are two very easy and quick and  simple and inexpensive ways of doing so...
