Can someone add a curse to this ship that every time this ship is sank, Baltimore players get a ray of sunshine so that they aren't completely depressed?

Wow, WG throwing their old principle "No T9/10 premium vehicles" over board, at least do they it for enough money, 750k free XP aka 30k dubloons.

WoT had T9/10 premiums as Clan Wars and personal mission rewards. (M60, Object 907, Object 970, T-22, VK 72.01 (K) for example)

At the very least they made it available (although a lot of work) to everyone like with personal missions, instead of only 0.1% the playerbase like they did with Clan Wars in WoT.

This is straight forward pay to win ship. It's better then other tier 9 bbs and amount of time needed to get it for free makes it p2w.

If the Mo is the only ship ever that gets Radar, i'm fine with it, not that i believe that it needs it.

What bothers me is the reaction of a lot of players...p2w? OP? Really?

 

The radar - as with all Radar equipped ships - has a cooldown and limited range. 

A bit of situational awareness can counter a Radar sweep quite easily, and it's not like Ocean is the only map in the game.

 

Apart from that, as with all Radar and Hydro equipped ships, quite a number of players will rely too much on their gimmicks and get nuked.

None of the CW reward tanks gets a credits bonus. What kind of genius are you?

It is straight up upgrade over normal line ship with no noteworthy tradeoffs. That fits many people's definition of p2w quite well. Obviously you can have a more restrictive definition of p2w, but you shouldn't be surprised then many don't share your viewpoint.

and pretty much thats why it uses so wonky currency to buy as "free exp" instead of straight doubloons

 

[because the principle itself was for nabs to not pay their way into top tier battles, and even with missouri out there they won't as you need to earn the elite xps to use those doubloons to get the ship...]

Yep, you can buy it, but at least it is limited by the free XP thing and by the fact that it costs effectively twice the price of a T8 prem. Still not sure what to think about the credit bonus thing, since T8 vehicles see at least a MM spread of 4 tiers, while T9 is more often than not top tier. Wont be healthy for the MM when everyone is playing high tier.
