Well, a few days have passed since Project R started, and as far as the numbers go, I have serious concerns that the goal may not be achieved on the EU.  

 

Right now we have around 1.8 million pearls, I contributed 102 pearls so far. That being said, 100 pearls are easy to get. I assume most players participating have a similar amount. That would put us at around 18000 active players at the moment, or maybe 20000 as a very conservative estimate. 

 

If i'm not mistaken, each player can get a maximum of 407 pearls during the event, That means that to successfully finish Project R, at least 25000 players have to make the max. possible contribution - so we are 5-7 thousand players shortAnd each week a player misses, means 57 pearls lost. So players that join late, cannot contribute to full extent. 

 

For the tinfoil guys: Maybe WG made this change to the reward mechanic as they realized the goal was probably out of reach?

As per title, Project R is up.

 

Unfortunately, in contrast to the other region, EU is being neglected again: There will be only 2000 Kamikazes given out at random to those who meet the event's conditions

 

http://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/common/project-r/

 

I guess the main reason is EU's language diversity again.

 

I will take part in it, of curse, but the fact that the main price is not guaranteed is so anticlimactic

 

Update 21.01.2016: Thanks to our tireless CM team, conditions of the event had been amended. Now everybody who participate actively in the event and gathers 260 pearls, will be awarded with Kamikaze R. If you are new to the thread, don't waste your time reading it, head to http://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/common/project-r/, sign up and keep them pearls coming!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lmho ... Done most of the missions, except for some of the Carrier + a little of the Cruiser, problem is you see, my 12 "Team" mates (98 %)  now get destroyed, within 60 - 120 secs of the game starting = Defeat Defeat Defeat Defeat Defeat Defeat Defeat Defeat Defeat Defeat Defeat and on and on???? SERIOUSLY questioning this game!

Finally, thank you for showing your colors in plain sight instead of trying to hide them behind some fancy words in the hope the moderators wouldn't pick up on them.

Yup, and this time there isn't a sliver of a doubt to be found anywhere in the same post code.

Look. I'm happy for all of you. I'm getting a free premium ship. Awesome.

 

I still think it's a terrible decision to change because a handful of people [edited]incessantly. Who knows how many of you are even paying customers?

 

I also still think it's a valid business decision to implement the contest in its original form. That you are unable to separate from your fragile and child-like egos long enough to see it is frankly just disturbing.

 

Ha ha, not a paying customer? Your funny man...............

Did the same maths on Wednesday already.

If we have about 2.9 million pearls on Sunday evening we're in the green (if all the players contributing pearls 'til then will continue to do so until the 24th of February and don't stop when they reach 260 pearls).

If not... well... it's just a T5 DD, right?  :hiding:

Yep, contrary to his beliefs, this thread have showed us many things:

 

1. It is useful to protest obvious injustices

2. Wargaming do actually listen to its players

3. The pearl thing is really great, and I recommend it to all my friends

 

I do not think they would have made an impossible goal for us, that would be counter-productive to all goodwill WG have gained in this mess.

So, a question, do we have the slightest of chances of reaching the lottery?

 

Or I have to grind the 260 pearls?

Well, if we don't grind for pearls there will be no draw as we will not reach the target!

plus, since WG has said you will get the ship if you get 260 pearls why not just go for it?

Anyway, it is the first time we, "the whinners", have achieved something on EU server. :izmena:

The 100.000 credits came in a box, so the 1 day of premium may as well.

In that case you could choose at which point to activate the 1 day of premium. :)

Well, the 10 Million Pearl goal is just the lottery. The guaranteed Kamikaze R is a 260 pearl personal goal. That should mean you can get the Kamikaze R without the 10 Mil goal ever being reached.

 

If the weekly missions in the future provide as many pearls as they do right now, everybody that actively plays each week should get his own personal Kamikaze even without trying.

 

 

 

By the way, the 6 Mil goal is 10x of each flag, which includes the Papa Papa flag (300% more Free XP). Make sure to save that one until the 6,5 Mil goal has been reached, 3x XP event.

My understanding of the event rules is that 10 million pearls are required for any kind Kamikaze handouts, be it the lottery or the "guaranteed" Kamikaze for 260 pearls.

 

It reads: "By going above and beyond the original goal of collecting 260 pearls, you will receive your free Kamikaze R Premium destroyer, once Project R is successfully over - and all without having to rely on pure chance!"

Already happened. But you can activate it on any given time by going to "Treasures" and open your 1 day premium chest.

They only get added to the grand total (10 pearls). You do not receive any personally.

As far as I understand it, you will not get pearls personally, but 10 pearls will be added to the grand total.

You didn't waste anything! Why do you think that?

On the contrary, you added 10 pearls to the total sum that could not be added by any other way (missions in-game i mean).
