Is WG going full regression now?

It was looking like they were improving there for a while.

How so?

 

Different regions had their own sales practices all the time.

But lately we've seen almost simultaneous releases for premium ships.

Well, they're ahead a few time zones, who knows, may be WG EU will spoil us, too? :trollface:

I doubt we'll see it soon. Releasing another premium quite literally at the same time as the Hood seems not only unlikely but very questionable from a business standpoint.

Previously we've also seen CC reviews popping up a few days to a week before the release of a premium.

SEA releasing the Kaga now makes no actual sense.

still mad at dasCKD for trolling.

Mutsu also took quite a while until it reached the EU premium shop, and honestly, I'm afraid we'll have to wait until the end of the hunt for Bismarck.

 

WG EU: please proof me wrong, ASAP :hiding:

Unless they're not expecting a lot of people to spend ~100€ for the Hood bundle. Wish I had an idea there, really. There must be some people who do, but I can't imagine there being lots of that kind of people.

 

Otoh, WG threw in a few of those new flags into the bargain, might work as an additional motivator.

Because obviously WG doesn't have any idea how to make business. They are new to gaming industry, never have released any game before, they don't make any money and will bankrupt soon. Such a pity they never listen multinational corporation management forum specialists, who always know better how to make business.

My hopes went up.

Now I'm sad.

I hate you :(

 

That was my intention. The release of the Kaga, coupled with the Hood bundles, will likely see EU in flames again which is always fun to watch:trollface:

So you're saying that you make more money releasing premium content at the same time than to stagger it? Because people have unlimited money and no budget and also unlimited time so they can just play twice as much to use both ships just as much as if they had been released at different times?

Please teach me master businessman! I also want to earn WG-money!

Okay, lesson number one: if you want to earn WG-money, do as WG does. Not really rocket science. And as you seem to know much better how to make business in game industry, your success is only matter of time. Very short time.

Wrong..Well we have often been first to get ships.

 

Also lets compare prem shop at moment shall we 

Ships in shop

Sea server 7 ships including Hood and Kaga

NA server 22 ships including Hood

EU server 25 and Hood is not up yet

RU 23 with no Hood

 

Cost of Atago on

Sea Server 43€

NA Server 41.40€

EU Server 39.12€

RU server 39.50€

 

Basically on EU we have the most choice and we pay less

So basically admitting trolling. That is against the forum rules, you know.

IJN Kaga uses Tier VI ships in a Tier 7 hull which will have to match up against USN Saipan's Tier 9 monster fighters.

 

Will the numbers advantage plus the 30% buff (10% per tier difference) balance it out?

 

Where are the stats on this ship? I'll have a look. Should stop being lazy

If you use an anonymizer and then have a look at the shops, you'll find that all RU prices are about 1/3rd less than EU.

I simply detailed the actions of War Gaming. The fact that those facts would provoke a negative mob reaction is War Gaming's fault, not mine.

So that's the explanation for the success of World Of Warplanes :trollface:
