[SINT] Jvd2000 Players 1,639 posts 31,173 battles Report post #2 Posted July 9, 2020 Requires you to do 5 missions from 1200 upwards to 1600 base xp in a match. rewards one (!) normal german container...(and 5x 200K silver) Well thank you very much WG..... edit: main problem is the disbalance between effort and reward. The setup of this CV show is already on my bad side due to RNG lootboxes again. Then the final good reward (a nice tier x camo that requires 600 tokens)) is hidden behind luck of having all 3 cv's drop and having Graf Zep in your inventory...Sure having a camo worth 5K doubloons for free should not be easy but this is almost impossible with only just good luck.. Receiving one more container for that odd change of having a cv mission drop against these requirements just angers me. Does not encourage me to spend money at this moment. Especially since this missions were sold as easy. 1600 base xp is not super hard but neither easy...and then one crate.. 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WG has a long history of ridiculous mission requirements. I guess you don't remember the PR desaster or the crazy weekend missions years ago. In this case it's ok. If I can do it on the side, fine. If I don't, just one container, who cares. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And btw, look at the post they made on Youtube "Simple" combat mission?! The same "simple" they used with Pay-to-Rico i guess. Thanks, This was the reason i was upset. Not being ungratefull for a "free gift" but more again the misinformation of WG. Will never (extreme unlikely) get the 3 required cv drops for the 600 tokens required for a tier x perm camo. And i dont feel entitled to get them either. But the remote chance is like that, so remote, that a 5 extra rng chances are not going to change my abysmal change to get anything for free out this event. And these "simple" missions do not improve my mood. Baseline: Would like a free tX camo, but extreme unlikely (accepted, but atleast be fair about if WG like the "Free PR" Early free CV, don't care, any one received is nice. Will not go through loopholes though. Will not spend a dime on this. Breath in, breath out. ignore and continue with other things then WG. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And btw, look at the post they made on Youtube "Simple" combat mission?! The same "simple" they used with Pay-to-Rico i guess. I wouldn't stress about and here's why. 1. This is a CV event. Personally I like playing all classes but many don't like CV's so why even care. 2. Personal taste of course but I think the perman-camo looks puke. 3. This particular directive features NO PREMIUM TIME option for your tokens. Normally we get to at least exchange our tokens for some premium time, but not this time. So who really cares? So you might not get a CV with the weakest torps in the game that you can still get later anyway since it's just a tech tree ship. Statistically most all players are not going to ever get close to getting something worthwhile since the token drop rate is tailored as such to get players to spend money. So all that most players are going to get from this directive is a choice of some lame signals. Does that sound appealing to you? Because it sure don't to me.

You need 1600 to actually get the Container. And you need Several of these Games. Let me Tell you Straight. For the Average Player getting a Game of over 1300 is a 1 out of 10 thing. Over 1500 is a 1 out of 20 thing. Means they will need to Play 50+ Games for this. And even then its not Guaranteed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
