The only country that has enough balls to actually protect their weak and gullible and do something against this scummy behaviour. The guys who passed this law have my utmost respect.

Not really lol, that's only because our government can't take any taxes on these buys.

 

You want to gamble in Belgium, we have a lot of Casino's, you can play "Lotto", Euro million, buy lottery ticket, and you can even do that online from your computer...yes, you can just because...taxes can be taken.

Belgium is not a dream land where citizen are protected against gamble addiction.

So restrictions like that are...a joke. :Smile_facepalm:

The way I remeber it was reported when it happened is that lootboxes are banned because the review of the algorithm for dropchances was denied by WG, I dont see how the tax is an issue if other online casino services are allowed to exist, obviously thats not the (only) issue but nevermind the end result is still the same

Since someone dug out WGs patent for manipulating matchmaking, making it easier on players with a new tank in a higher tier, it's a small step to not trust a loot box mechanic. Just imagine how easy it is to tailor drop chance according to the level of stupid modified by disposable income.

Quick question, according to the droplist of the containers they can only contain black ships.

 

Am I confused, or did they remove the normal ships from the containers?

Only reason I was thinking about buying some, was the chance of a Kutuzov...

 

Might be confused with the christmas / newyear boxes though,,,

Black friday containers are always black textured I think? Mind, the special missions are very specific to ships with black textures.

PSA: if you don't already have the asashio, well, don't sleep on the asashio B. Forget about Alaskas and Massachusetts, asashio is where it's at.

 @arttuperkunasHow is Assashio in comparation with Loyang, Cossack and Kidd. Is it on their level or worse. I see from ship in game description that Assashio torps cant hit cruisers and dds, only bbs?

I also quite miss the point of the desire for this ship. Torps are useless against the first line of encounters. Your guns are subpar so that your game is based upon sneeking past these enemy DDs and Cruisers unseen to hit the big ships behind. Way to specialitzed for my taste.

Asashio is a unique ship, can't really be compared to any of those (which are all good, more or less all round, versatile DDS).

 

Asashio can deal with DDs due to superior spotting and "good enough" guns. It's not great at it, but it can manage, especially if you have a division shooting what you spot.

 

Asashio is not good at dealing with cruisers, ngl.

 

But Asashio is the rider on the pale horse when it comes to BBs, no other DD even comes close. You can farm every BB in the game, higher tier is just better than lower tier as they have more HP and XP to give you. It's not just that ASashio has 20 km torps. The point is that it has fast, low detection, 20 km torps that it can fire vast numbers of due to reload booster.

It is very specialised, and it really comes into its own if div play is your thing. DDs and cruisers are less of a problem if you have a cruiser/bb pal who shoots whatever you spot. That said, it is not at all a bad ship even in solo play in randoms.

I bough the chain bundles excepted the useless Shino as I had dubs stocked for that since the anniversary event, got no ship :Smile_unsure: I wish I bought an Atago B instead of wasting those dubs gambling.

A few months back, I had a hankering to drop some Dubs on black Friday, to get a Black JB, because I missed out on getting her for coal, picking up Georgia, Smolester and Thunderer instead. 

 

But now that T9 MM is hilariously, unfunnily broken by being mashed by 5 or more Superships every single game?    Yeah..... that's a double-hard NOPE from me!

Really all those dubs through the black Friday bundles just to get a Shino?!? :cap_wander: 

 

Its not even a coal or Dubs ship, you get it for free doing the Honorable Service campaign.
