I just won a Tirpitz B in a container and even thou you are advertising that there is a mission to earn 2,500 doubloons' you do not have a disclaimer stating that this has to be completed in the standard ship NOT the B model this is as far as i can tell Illegal and false advertising.

Then why are the advertising on the shop under the Black Models, this is false advertising and illegal in my eyes and probably that of a lawyers as well.

 

Its also hard as hell to do considering JB is no longer available to purchase so if you dont own it you are yet again screwed by WGs incompetence.

They do not. You either read not everything or did not understand it.

WG states that the bundle for Black Jean Bart will include bonus missions for 2500 Doubloons and 25 000Coal.

Edit: So what have we not read or understand?

That Jean Bart and Jean Bart B are different ships, as stated, and that the mission is for Jean Bart, as stated.

Let me take this screenshot and mark you the places that COULD HAVE told you things while READING...image.png.60468fb61aed04b591c0d6563e984af7.thumb.png.8777c173bad4ec9abfa5524038ee6155.png

 

I mean you can go misleading advertising but i don't think it is that well hidden that a person who goes reading everything as one should can not pause and think a little... not that the same thing applied to ALL BLACK SHIPS FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS....

 

 

one could think that the OP joining 2012 may have noticed that.

Listen I bought a bundle

 

Bundle included what u see in the screenshot above. We also get the mission but it dont work, needs to be patched from WG thats it.

Wether we read wrong or not, EU laws are superior on this. (thankgod). If u dont get what advertised you can get a refund.

They sold the JB-B with a bundle that has a mission that can not be played with ship that brought the bundle.
that is just retarded.. " it is the same ship " yeah, except that it is not qualified to do the mission with.. can't even buy the "regular" JB.
that is clumsy to not say misleading or scam.

What is stated, is that the JB-B is IDENTICAL to the JB apart from the camo.

"the only difference is the camo" is what that screenshot says, and that is what i said too. perhaps you should read again?
But another difference is that you can't do the mission with it, so the camo is not the only difference.
i concede " not the black version"  in the first screenshot is pretty difficult to dodge. it is there.
but to sell a ship with a bundle that can't be done with that ship is just crazy, it is duping the customer..
what is the point of that bundle?  to try and get people that already have the regular JB to buy the JB-B just so they can do the mission with the regular JB?
that's just retarded.. this reeks of a scam, i certainly feel duped and i am sure many with me.

It's a consolation prize for those that happen to randomly get the black version while already having a normal one.

You said they were identical. They are not.

Which is obvious, if you understood that they are two different ships :Smile_facepalm:

That was explained again and again here on the forum and the WoWs website...

No, the screenshot says you buy a Jean Bart B with a combat mission for Jean Bart.

Wording matters , this one is a Freebee for impulse buyers like you that just see "more" when they read it.

Dude... Seriously, this community was down this Road 3 years in a row that 2500 Dubloon Combat Mission was always for Owners of the Original Ship if they got a copy of it from the container and or decided to buy it again as a thank you from WG, there is nothing AGAIN to be confirmed there it is how was advertised 3 Years in a row if WG got you and others to buy a ship they removed for popularity again in black good on WG, if you now are sore that the combat mission for Jean Bart is not working for the Black Version of the boat... :sadface:

Seriously can not fathom how dense people act about it.

OK, as a WG Staff I can confirm what @DasTongle or @ColonelPete said here. From all screenshots here is visible, that it is explained, what is the difference of "B" and standard ship (without B).

So no broken mission here or false advertisement as it is explained, that those missions are for non-black versions of those ships. The mission is something like a compensation gift for those, who have basically two identical ships, just one of those is coloured black and has additional "B" letter in it.
