I met an Arizona earlier on EU, she was ripped to pieces.  it might have been the flashing neon sign above it saying "sink me" or it might have just been a crap captn, or perhaps its just a really underwhelming ship. 

Time will tell I guess

I encountered this ship just now in a battle and I burn the crap out off it just for fun :P

What an ugly paint job it has is :P I have the Texas, its an overpriced slow peace of RNG Jesus dung and the experience with that ship makes me not want to buy another American BB ever.

Sure I only got it to retrain captains but HELL the PRICE WG wants for a T6 American BB that is just another slow RNG Jesus gunner?

 

Half the price and I could consider it but right now the Warspite hands down is the best Premium BB around and theres realy not much "special about" this American BB's to warrant the insane price.

G3virus : You say Texas is a bad ship? lol....Thats says everything. I think its the captain here who is the problem, not the ship.

​I'm happy enough with the texas but I don't think I can bring myself to buy the Arizona, as I said earlier I met it in battle the other day and it was shredded in no time, just seemed a little, Meh!  I was considering it tho, I need to get another 30 days premium soon and was toying with getting the "ultimate" bundle which puts the price of the ship at 20 quid, it just doesn't seem like its worth that.  I think ill hold out for some more RN premiums and save my pennies.

Yup, which is good. But here I was referring to the commemorative flag which is limited to the most expensive package, just like the "Jutland" flag was when it was tied to Warspite + Campbeltown bundle.

It's been said many times but it essentially offers nothing new at all. Just a New Mex with worse AA, stronger deck armour and loads of HP.

 

Texas has epic AA which makes it unique for a mid tier BB. Unless you're a collector or really can't grind to T6 I can't see any reason to get this.

 

Hopefully Scharnost will be sold by itself and not in a £85 bundle only!!! :trollface:

I wonder how many of those commemorative flags have been sold... I've see more Jolly Roger ones in game than the Jutland one so far.

Wargaming Eu's approach to commemorative flags is annoying but not something i particularly care about.

What does tick me off is that military month contributor flag the americans got that gave bonuses to credits and xp gain.

I'm sorry Tuccy...

I was one of the many that had Warspite since closed Beta, and when Campbeltown came in that fancy boundle with Warspite and Jutland flag i was upset, but still Ok. Then you (WG) decided that the only way to get the Jutland flag was the package (buying a ship I already had), not neccesary to say my blood boiled and got the single Campbletown.

Now you come with the Arizona and its flag...Personally me, I wont will buy full pack because the previous experience, and Im sure many players probably will not buy it at all....Could you please pass on to the responsible section of WG?

I bought the Arizona in the small bundle as i needed the Dubloons anyway.

Putting those flags in the most expensive bundle is rather unfortunate - for me as a collector, and for WG, because i'm not gonna buy a bloated package for one flag.

 

I don't have anything against bundles per se, as long they are resonably priced (Texas, Arizona,...), and i sure as hell would have no problems shelling out 100€ for a premium vehicle that's rare or valueable ( to me for whatever reaseon) like the Gremy, the E25 and the Type 59.

But for a standard ship and a flag?  Sorry WG, no deal.

 

Pls put those flags in each package, folks would be much more inclined to buy them and you WG, wouldn't get torched each time you put something new in the shop.

 

 

My very first game was a Tier VIII match, and i did very well.

While it is way too early for a final verdict, the Arizona made a very good first impression and it could become one of my favorite BBs.

Don't tell WG you would pay 100 Euros for a Gremy!!! Don't give them ideas :amazed:
