Destroyer Weekend - will Blyskavica, Sims, Anshan be on sale ?

[BdW_Marecc]

Title said it - since this is destroyer weekend, does it mean we can buy those not permanently in the shop destroyers too ?

[Krizmuz]

no

[BdW_Marecc]

Then what's the point ?

The only destroyers that are permanent additions to the shop are Tier 2 and Tier 3 so ummm ... yeah, I appreciate the thought but ...

[AgarwaenME]

The point is that ALL DDs will be cheaper, which means the actual ships you should be focusing on will be cheaper.

[damo74]

Nice! I have the Mahan researched, but not the credits to buy it.

 

Until this weekend it seems

 

[cracktrackflak]

WG's shop policy is completely incomprehensible from a business point of view.

 

Yes, I'd like to buy a Blysk, as is available in all of the other server shops except EU. Its not a type 59, or a pre-launch pack ship, or a special event ship, or an OP mistake ship, or anything else that warrants its non-availability. Fine, WG, if you don't want to sell me the Blysk, I'll just go and direct my buyer impulse somewhere else - maybe a nice premium on AW, or a whole top tier game from Steam.

 

WG needs to recognises that people - if they are to commit to investing money in a game - want to have the flexibility and availability of game items so that they can plan and budget for their game. They don't want stop-start availability and weak attempts at shil selling..

The point is that ALL DDs will be cheaper, which means the actual ships you should be focusing on will be cheaper.

 

Buying regular ships when they are on sale also means that you get less for your lower Tier ship when you sell it in order to free up a port slot. So you're loosing money too unless you actually have a surplus of empty port slots or buy one for 300 gold (price not reduced )

If you don't happen to have a ship researched right now then a sale weekend like that isn't really that exciting without premium ships to pick up.

Was looking forward to see if the Blyskawica would be sold again, at best even at a discount.

 

Currently have 70€ sitting on my gaming budget. Would've even bought a bundle if it came with a sizeable amount ESCL and ZH signal flags (plus the usual doubloons) if it didn't exceed 30€ because I would be looking to train up that captain.

 

The other part of the budget is currently reserved to see how the Dunkerque will be priced. But with no Blyskawica for sale, that's a flat 30€ that WG isn't getting. I'm not paying anything for a tier III premium ship and I already have the Tachibana from the GNB event.

Incidentionally, the current 2K Humble Bundle is looking mighty juicy and I suddenly have 30€ free to spend.

missed the sale of the Blyskawica as I was away and did not know.  Been hoping ever since it would come back out.....

If you're playing high tiers, it's actually pretty common to have researched ships well before you have credits to buy them. I have 30mill credits worth of high tier DDs to buy, and I've been there for several months (as I've used the other prior weekend rebates to buy either by nation, or by some other ship type to save credits on these purchases). Also, if you're in those tiers, then you're far less likely to be within xp distances where you can quickly grind it anyways.

 

So to answer your question again, the point is that you can get ships for far less cost in time spent grinding credits.

as mentioned blyskawica is being sold at every other server than eu

I realy dont get that its dd weekend and no blyskawica

[JapLance]

I'd say Anshan is the one that has been out of the shop for the longest time.

Don't spoil the hope of the "Scharnhorst" arrival.

[beercrazy]

tbh this "sale" of premium dds stinks

cruisers got a tier 7 Atlanta

cv got the saipan

I cant remember what the tier bb sale was

but ffs dd sale is tier 2 and 3

 

I had money ready for the Anshan but seems its gonna stay in my bank instead

buy the fantastic campbeltown

[Demens_Lupus]

because of this logic of wg

I think I'm gonna stop playing

I want to buy a premium dd but I cannot

If I was living in asia or Us I could buy premium dds

 

[JapLance]

Yet another great success!!! by WG EU.

 

Campbeltown and Tachibana on discount ,

Especially after you could get the Tachibana for essentially free during the still rather recent GNB event. And I'm pretty sure all the collectors and RN fans who needed their British shot already got the Campbeltown anyway.

[RUSSIANBlAS]

WG might argue that those 3 DD might spoil Ranked but at this stage I don't think anyone cares about it anymore...

[Dirty_Filthy_Scrublord]

My question is this....is it good business to sell a product in one region, but not another?? Well let me answer my own question....like F**K it is.

Surely it cannot have anything to do with unbalancing ranked, the NA have it as does many many  EU players already. Seems to me to be a class one clusterf**k!!

Completely illogical, just don't get it. Confused.

[Szatanshow]

Total fail by WG wanted to buy Blyska but not on shope so i gues money go to other company.. WG EU marketing should be fired imidietly

 

ps. i bet they will be in shop sooner or later with some totaly overpriced bundle worth a full game - it with case i wont buy it either

Blyska is going to be in the tree permanently but I don't see why ppl want to play a ship with stock commander in ranked.

[RUSSIANBlAS]

Super Premium DD bundle £250 with a special commemorative flag!!!

If you play it outside of ranked you can have a good captain.
