From the original post I expected that we will still have some time after 10M is reached. Such a shame that WG excluded people who could not play every single week from chance to get 260 pearls. I went skiing for a week, which is why I lost the chance. I think there are a lot of such players. But classical WG's attitude towards players, I would say - allure them on something and let them pay if they have a life beside the computer games.

It's more than a year since they saw last money from me and with experience like these I will hardly change my mind..

 

You poor soul - condemned to go skiing for a week. I really feel your pain!:P

Its heck on earth. The cheesy or beefy fondue's, a little mayo on your perfectly cut chips, beer you cant pronounce by the litre, crisp fresh air, healthy exercise and the endless apres ski!

give me a stuffy, darkened room with a plate of soggy nachos glinting in the flicker of nautical pixels any day! :trollface:

One thing, all the players who played like tigers to get 260 Pearls for a dd ship in a contest to win it, and i mean na players and eu players , will think what the hell is this, na shop it can be bought voor 29.00 euro's after the contest,  will it also on eu server come in the prem. shop? If so, this is not an special ship no more.

Sorry for this post and thinking this way.

dude... i'm getting this ship for free just because i can read and think about what i've read...

i'm not really pissed... tbh: we already joked about that right after their announcement... "they are going to sell kamikaze in the prem shop for people that were not lucky enough"... everyone (who started before project r) could get it... for free... just by plaing some games each day... of course it's not "special" anymore but i don't really care about it..

im currently sitting at 243 pearls because i missed one week, and this is my plan on how to get the rest. dont blame me, blame WG for the bad practises.
so in order to get as many pearls as possible in the smallest amount of time i will have to.start a match with every ship and quit the match right to start a new one 9 times and on the last one i have to kill 5 ships most of which are gonna be AFK kills because everyone is afk farming that mission and hopefully get at least 1.3k exp, then hope that at least 5 of those matches are going to be wins, this way i will be able to get 27 pearls ,and just in time to find out that the event is over and that the last pearls i got didnt count,also enjoy the decreased Karma for all the Afking

Saving 29€ by collecting 260 pearls is a pretty good deal if you ask me, especially since most of the pearls could be collected without doing anything out of the ordinary.

 

Besides, the EU management said the Kamikaze R would not be sold on the EU shop.

Oh ... what is that ?!?    Is it proof that some people will do really anything to reach their goals, even if they lose their face and credit ?  Now I understand, why the price is called "Kamikaze" ...

That's completely unfair on the other players who join your teams who will themselves likely be staying up late to make that final progress.

 

As we seem to have slowed down pearl accumulation dramatically over the last 2-3 days I suspect there are a lot of people (most of those who care) who now either have 260 or over 150 but nowhere near 260 and some who are close but have all the pearls they can get at the moment and who are hoping for one last reset.

 

If you have 243 then all you need to do is be on at about 00:30 Sunday night/Monday morning (which is when the reset has happened each week), play three games, including killing 5 enemies (altogether), win one of those games and have one of those matches where you score 1300xp or more - that will net you the 17 pearls you need.

As no one can collect more than 300 pearls, a top 3 would be impossible (one could determine the 3 that got 300 first, though).

 

Where did you get that number from? Without playing CV or tier IV missions I have 320 playing only the remaining missions.

As previously stated, I still say that the amount we could all personally collect should have been capped at 260.
