Soviet Cruisers: Early Access

[The_EURL_Guy]

We're here to tell you all about the new game event in Update 0.9.4!

Read it on the portal

[HMS_Edinburgh_C16]

[VIChiefIV]

So 6 boxes from the dailies + 54 from the directives gives 60 boxes with a guaranteed minimum of 5 tokens per box = 300 tokens total which is exactly the cost of the Mikoyan. Just a bit of a shame we can't use the tokens to get the camos+ships that this update is about with the Mikoyan as a final reward for completing all the directives but since these are tech tree ships that you can get anyway at some point I'm ok with it.

 

Would have been nice if perma camos for these 3 ships were purchaseable seperately though rather than be buyable in a fixed order.

[Sweedish_Gunner]

If the Petro doesn't come until 0.9.6, what comes in 0.9.5? That's the Moskva split and Nevsky right? 

[Aetius85]

So still no official news about Moskva replacement? I read tons of posts on forum but didn't see an official post by WG staff confirming players will receive Moskva also if the line is resetted and Moskva no more researched (again) so xp on Donskoi can be used for Nevsky. I saw answers from forumites saying yes, but an answer from WG members would be great

 

Thanks

[wot_2016_gunner]

Overall it's fine; there are some issues, but they are basically the same issues of 0.9.2 (EU DDs early acsess)

 

Namely this

 

which is practically the same as this

 

But the rest is fine

You get the "Soviet" camo for Mikoyan as the reward fpr completing the directives, not the ship 

 

Reward for completing all Directives: the Soviet permanent camouflage for cruiser V Mikoyan.

As always, WG trying to force us to buy, buy and buy. Pathetic again. And we don't even have the stats of the ships (CCs didn't play them lately), the official (published in its own article) rules for the ship changes, etc. Keeping all obscure, so people don't have clues. Realy sad. Put your ludopathy where the back ends.

[GarrusBrutus]

is this a typo? ^

[mac1985_fighter]

What happens to the people that have Moskva when its replaced do we keep it or is it exchanged I'm confused

[ColonelPete]

@Sub_Octavian

Looks like the 180mm guns on the new ships will outperform the current 180mm guns.

I am very sceptical about the balance of the new ships.

[Van_Bazel]

just what we all waited for . New Sovjet Paper Tigers.

Are you talking about this great and mostly overlooked thing where the old T5 guns are better then the modern T9 ones:

[MarcoGn97]

Petro only in 0.9.6 I want my new theory of Balans now PepeHands (or, well, in one patch like it's usual)

 

The camo look cool af, art team carrying the day as always 

 

Ready to serve the Soviet Union, RNG permitting...

You must be mistaken Comrade, Russian Balans is stronkest in world!

I wouldn't say all the rest is 'fine' exactly; they're trying to stretch four ships out into six bundles (and only three of them are actually the early access ones), which makes it seem like they're not putting so much effort in as for the Ikea DDs.

Ye, in 0.9.5 Moskva is getting switched out of the tech tree.

We already answered it several times on forums, live on stream, on the dev blog and as soon as we are getting closer to it, will will announce details on the portal.

You will get Moskva if you have here right now and even if you don't have her bought right now or if you reset the line. All that is important is that you actually had her researched before the switch.

The vast majority of the game is available completely for free and so will the tech tree ships be, once the Early Access phase is over. You can buy premium-goods, which make you progress faster or make your ship's exterior stand out, but we cannot just offer everything for free. ;) Developers prefer to not only live off of bread and water.

• One of the main features of the new sub-branch is their effective armor-piercing shells with good ballistic properties, high penetration, and a short fuse-arming delay time, the latter of which will significantly decrease the number of overpenetrations. Salvos fired from these ships are effective against both battleships and cruisers.
• An average reloading time and special accuracy settings: the new ships have a larger dispersion ellipse at long distances in comparison to other cruisers.
• When these ships are positioned wisely, they will demonstrate their decent ability to absorb hits thanks to the good armor protection they enjoy for their type.
• As with most cruisers, you can choose between Hydroacoustic Search and Defensive AA Fire.
• Cruisers of Tier IX and above have the Repair Party consumable at their disposal.
• The combination of their accuracy settings and the Surveillance Radar consumable with a 12 km operating range makes the new cruisers most efficient in medium-range encounters.
• Give a fraction of these to other cruisers and they would be nerfed. Jezus guys are u kidding????

So wait, do we have a new Stalingrad replacement ship?

So far it looks it will be a new clan battles meta ship, (by the new info on paper) hmm 

[CaptainKreutzer]

I have a question-

 

Is Petropavlovsk 0.9.6 release gonna change German CV early acces event time or is it gonna be like Kleber, gonna be released fully with German CV early access event?
