they could make it RU/RN atleast...

 

Idk. Imagine RN - with all their... advantages in area of survival. And add being focused for mission on top of that.

At the moment of getting ARP Takao my tally is:

 

IJN 20/20

USN 20/20

VMF 10/20

KM 19/20

 

Not sure if I will get ARP Nachi. I'd like to have the complete collection of ARP ships, but I don't really enjoy tier 8 and higher much. And I don't like playing the game just for hunting and killing certain ships ignoring the rest.

 

Plenty of time left though. Maybe little by little...

With nothing but NO and Baltimore:

 

IJN 16/20

US 6/20

Russkie 5/20

Nazi- Kriegsmarine 8/20

 

Takao 29/50 wins

 

Secondaries hits are a no-no, unless some opponent would be eager to...'cooperate'. I don't care about torp hits. Reason: Mutsuki usage.

I made it today. It is frustrating and I rushed a few times towards a russian ship sank it and died seconds afterwards. But in the end it was worth for me. One thing I have to say though, if you don't place yourself at the frontline you stand a little chance of killing the russian dds and cruisers that are already aware that they are hunted like meat. Most of them stay back, well aware of the fact that a lot of the players will rush towards them. 

 

Anyway, what I will do now is to leave every russian ship aside for others. I'd actually play them if I had a russian Tier VIII, IX or X ship, but as I don't I can't. It is doable however and when I came online around 17:00 or 18:00 o'clock I met more of them than later in the evening. 

 

All the best of luck to you guys!

 

I'm going to deploy my Klein-Field in the battles now!

You know if you really want to help others you can still take T6 ships too because they meet T8 guys many times. And the killer must be T8+ not the killed.

Still this doesn't change much as I do not posess a Tier VI either and it would not be a safe matchmake. Altough I see the Kutuzov is discounted.... :read_fish: but I never intended to buy one.

Russian ones do not exist in numbers. Pretty bad Mission, I don't think I'll be able to complete it...

Well, i was at 11/20 russian ships so i was very confident, btw, it was two days ago and now i'm still on 11/20, seriuosly, this evening i keep playing with 2/3 russian ship on my side and 0 in the enemy team, and when there is one russian ship it is on the other side of the map and/or is focused by most of the team.

 

I don't know if i will manage to accomplish the mission, but it's so frustrating...

This is just a sad story.

Patch 0.5.14 went live, great. New MSAA enabled, great. I hop into my Blyskawica to test the new amazing looks and land in a T9 match. Okay, Blys in T9 is not too bad, i can do this. During the battle i kill a Donskoi and go all 'yay nice, russian ship kill for the stupid mission'. The game is over and what do i see? No mission progression! Apparently i have to play a T8+ for it to count. So for the mission it would be okay to kill a T7 Shchors with my T9 Fletcher, but it's not okay to kill a T9 Donskoi with my T7 Blys - because killing much stronger ships as bottom tier is a bad thing you know. Still on 10/20 for russian ships while all other nations are done long ago. :(

By far the slowest mission to complete with casual play, but the long duration of the event makes this reasonable. Please, enjoy your premium Leningrads and Kutuzovs more often :trollface:

Takao finished

 

Nachi:

20/20 IJN

14/20 USN

7/20 VMF

15/20 KM

 

Only played T9 Kagero (alternatively I could play Fubuki, not much of a help).

 

All VMF ships were Khabas, Udalois, Trashcans that I torped.

Status update:

IJN 20/20

US 7/20

Russkie ships 6/20

Nazi German ships 8/20

Takao 33/50 (Randoms are unplayable atm)

 

Summary: Selective picking has begun due to the exclusion of the widest group of squishy ships...Also - kill steals.

If I remember correctly there was a WG member in another thread who wanted ask for a reduction of SN ships needed for this mission.

Are there any news I missed?

Mrconway said he agreed on our point of view regarding the problems with this mission...but no reaction after that...

Panic!

 

I'm at 20/20/15/20, so I'm going to have to kill a russian ship every week to get there right?

I see only one solution how WG can fix this problem: reset all our ranks so we can play ranked battles again. There are many Chapayevs to hunt down. :trollface:

 

But on the other hand, it's actually very interesting to see how many games people have played and how far behind the kill counter for RU ships is for the vast majority. But it's only natural since there are no RU BBs and CVs and since BB is the most played class.... oh well, WG + missions + common sense = ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just some minutes ago ... I have finished my last ARP mission ... ARP Nachi.

 

Last days I had bigger luck ( .. or enough skill ? ) to sunk U.S.S.R opponents, and now I´m glad that the mission for Nachi is over ...

purely because the Russian / U.S.S.R ships are not played so often as ships of other nations.

 

I wish good progress and happy finish with this mission to all of you, guys. Nachi is another Myoko clone, but ... light green is much, much better than pink !!       :popcorn:
