Pfff I finished the T paint today. bit worn out now. Glad I made it. The T paint is really functionally awesome. Though IMO not as beautiful as the original....

 

I actually think Anshan and now Tirp earn more with their camos than the 200% free XP on any other ship.

 

Tirp camo looks largely like the original, I don't notice the difference when playing so it's fine by me. Like a ice mint flavour of the original :D

Hi all,

 

It is 15 minutes to midnight... finally managed to finish the "Santa's Convoy"... I really wanted that "Tirpitz" cammo for "Missouri" grinding (currently at 350.000 Free XP)... :)

I didn't have enough time to grind the Tirpitz camo, so I decided to get Anshan from a supercontainer instead. I finished the grind for Bayern camo and grinded my Budyonny captain to 10 points since the early levels cost more xp after the patch. Overall a pretty nice day of WOWS.

HI all,

 Bad times in the Iowa...

 

Have you ever had that lol moment when both you and an enemy Iowa slap each other for massive citadels?

Pleasingly I got Graf Spee and the Leander + camo after declaring I wouldn't have time. So I'm glad they put the convoys back - I got some free stuff :)

 

I also played more to get to the Leander level. So WGEU should consider the decision to put them back in a good one

Hi all,

 

How is your progress with "The Hunt For Graf Spee" and "Santa's Christmas Convoy"?

 

I finished the "The Hunt For Graf Spee" on 09/10.01.2016. and I am grinding the "Santa's Christmas Convoy" currently (Stage 5)... I hope I can finish it in time (5 more days)...

I know graphics are historically accurate (Graf Spee) & complements to the graphics team: they allways do excellent job(!) BUT: I decided not to go for Graf Spee, since I do not realy like how the ship looks: gunz look a bit ridiculous big on the ship, so, I do not wanna play it. Its like cars: some cars one simply does not wanna drive in lol. The SN ships (CA's) + IJN ships (CA's) looks real cool...nice to watch them while playing...but Graf Spee - although functionally good ship(!) - it does look a bit ....lol:D (but again: thats how the ship historically indeed looked like)

I ended the last mission of Santa's Convoy.

 

So that's :

- a T6 premium that is quite enjoyable to play

- 13.2 million credits + 3 camos on the T6 I already had and kept

- a new camo for my Tirptiz

- plus all the rewards from tasks and the credits & XP won playing the game.

 

I earned enough to buy North Carolina, Gaede and Zao and still have a few million.

 

Now let's just hope that WG wil not break the game with 0.6.0 ...

 

Don't be too praising for WG - they intended to restrict EU from those missions and were only basically forced to "change their mind".

So, in some sense, you got your millions despite their efforts :bajan:

All this hard work with preparing Special EU version of the game without Convoys, clipping that Dasha clip...:trollface:

WG EU originally stated that there is not enough time so they (for our good) want to spare us that impossible grind. :D

Finished all the Santa missions and didn't get any Tirpitz camouflage. Looks like it costs me 3000 gold to buy it after all the missions, wtf?

Should be credited with it straight away, are you sure you've claimed the reward? Maybe log in and out, ticket time I guess...

I claimed reward, but didn't get anything. It didn't even show complete in the result screen, even though I played with Tirpitz. All missions are now "grayed" and finished. There is no option to choose them anymore I now have 3 completely new missions(Honorable service). It still costs me 3000 gold to use that Camo, even though everything is finished. There was massive UI lag when I came out of game... I suspect it's all WG UI bug...

 

PS. I restarted game twice and it's still the same.

I didn't get Graf Spree Camo either.

I did the mission like an half an hour ago, then went afk while on that end of mission screen, came back no camo, can't claim cuzz its locked.

 

^ I don't think scumbag WG EU will give us our Camo.

Got all the ships before the end, not too fussed about the camos.

 

Free Graf Spee, about 7 million credits and other assorted stuff is a nice bonus just for playing.

I'm a firm believer of praising good behaviour. Even if it was just a correction to bad behaviour :)
