Venom_Too ∞ Players 5,189 posts 7,044 battles Report post #26 Posted November 3, 2016 In sight of the ship only. You get a minmal worser (No Camo) Atago for free, so YES it is OK the High Requirements. In sight of server. Yes it is unfair for EU, but i don't really care. p.s.: And don't come with the Argument... but it has not the Boni of the Premium ships. Won't change the fact that the Takao is the same good Ship as the Atago only with the Drawback you can't put Camo on. So she will perform nearly as good as the Atago.

[AXIS] svadilfari Players 725 posts 19,379 battles Report post #27 Posted November 3, 2016 doesnt bother me personally. good excuse to grind some T10s. besides, the takao isn´t that big of a reward, it´s not a premium after all. i´ll grind it on the side, it´s 2 months after all. i´d much prefer another kamikaze style mission with a decent tier 6 or 7 premium as a reward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RenamedUser_92906789 Players 5,828 posts Report post #29 Posted November 3, 2016 I understand why unicum players who have several t9/10 ships vote for yes ... they want an unique reward (such as Flint) to show their skill. With making it a T9+ mission not so many players will have it ... so some1 with Takao on EU servers would mean he is a really good player. But i find that a bit selfish. Personally I have been denied the ship just because rules are different on EU. If I was on NA I could compete for the ship ... therefore this is not fair in any case. Why doesnt WG allow then just the users who have premium to compete for this ... sorry but its the same feeling. I have an option to throw some gold and unlock three T9 ships and upgrade them right away to compete ... but I am not gonna do it. Just keep the damn ship. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anonym_XGuN6pHmfiJ9 Players 460 posts Report post #32 Posted November 3, 2016 I wanted the Takao. But the tier 9 demand has solved that problem. Only have tier 8 ships at the moment. So no Takao for me but it isn't a big deal for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With making it a T9+ mission not so many players will have it ... so some1 with Takao on EU servers would mean he is a really good player. (...) Really? It's 50 wins. The mission is really easy to complete in 2 months. The only thing you need is a t9 ship - and getting that is only a matter of grind. To the point where you could just afk some 150 missions in t9 and probably complete the mission just like that. You know what WOULD be a skill-based mission to give people something to maybe brag about a little bit? Imagine a 7+ tier requirement (to exclude the low tiers but not the general populace) and a goal of, say, 30 victories while being among top 3 ships experience-wise (Random only). Unicums would do it pretty quickly. Decent-ish players would suffer through the grind to get these precious high-xp victories. Potatoes wouldn't really stand a chance... And it could be completed in your favourite ships of reasonably wide 7-10 tier spread! Just having a t9+ ship to complete the mission simply isn't an achievement - while it limits the mission to veterans of the game, it's still something achieved through pure grind. Skill makes it faster but is hardly necessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skill makes it faster but is hardly necessary. You misunderstood me. I know exactly how to complete the mission. I was just giving the facts as I see who voted for YES Lets say there are 1000 players. Out of this 1000 only 100 have T9 and T10. Out of this 100 lets say 50 will complete the mission. So you have 5% of veteran (skilled) players having the ship. If a player made it to T9/10 without skill ... than its magic Although I have seen people throwing money to WG unlocking several ships within few days in tech tree. But those are rare. EDIT: And yes, i think 50 wins isnt that harder than 100k base xp. What pisses me off is that I cant compete because I dont have a T9 ship. But I do have several T8. I just never grinded one line only, and I have a life/kids/family/wife/job ... so I cant play more than 3,4 games per day.

Purple players think like this ... like its that huge difference if they made it T8 (since the ship is T8). Even if T8 you could still compete. I get thrown so many times into T10 game in my T8 ... i wouldnt complain ... I would have a chance at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only thing WG stated were something along the "events catered to the region specifics" lines. Its no secret EU became main source of cash to milk after Russian economy basically collapsed and WG is throwing everything to get anything from there.

They can do whatever they want, it still doesn't make it right to discriminate one community over the others. And this mission is contradicting their previous statements that those missions are created catering to their specific audience. They want to force us into a specific behavior. And like good dogs plenty of players here happily jump through those hoops for a little treat, while right next to them the other dogs get the same for simply being able to sit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[RALLY] HMS_Antelope Players 309 posts 8,128 battles Report post #49 Posted November 3, 2016 The way WG work the different regions means they operate as independent companies. The EU have chosen the path for us and we either get on with it or not. Yes I am happy the T8 will be hard to achieve as the Atago is a great ship and should be difficult to get, I also wouldn't want a lot of inexperienced players around T8-10 as it upsets the higher tier populations. I think they have been very generous of late with the container system and the Halloween special so why we complain about everything is beyond me. They are all ships we don't have to buy, the people who spend more time in game will benefit from these offers which is correct in my opinion. They could have set T8 as the level but we would have had a lot of complaints about that. I am all for keeping WG honest but honestly at the moment they are doing a better job, we got the calendar out just on time so lets give them some credit. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
