 A permanent camouflage for USS Texas – Stars and Stripes – is now available for purchase in the game client, and offers the following bonuses:

  • Standard battle performance bonuses
  • +30% to XP earned in a battle

 

Lol. Many players bought the whole ship only for this camo.

  • Shiratsuyu: the Torpedo Reload Booster was placed in the same slot with the Smoke Generator. If at the time the Update goes live the Torpedo Reload Booster II consumable is mounted, it will be taken off the ship and placed in the Inventory.

 

All I see in this patch is.... RIP Shira.


Well done WG one more (suprisingly worthy IJN DD is nerfed)

Guess why they didn't mention this part in the dasha video...

 

Because otherwise more people would realize this and a shitstorm would start....

 

For my point of view WG just showed us again that they doN#t have any idea at all how to balance this game.

 

And they prove it literally every time they "balance" something.

 

The Khaba nerf is ridiculous meanwhile the Shira gets nerfed into oblivioun. Totally no bias there isn't there?

 

So yeah... Shira will be sold instantly, maybe I play some battles with her before the nerf hits her and I can use the captain for something diffrent...

 

I should really grind up to Khaba now and just use this OP ship like nothing else...

Two event-themed camos were added to the game client. They will not be available for purchase in the game client. 

  • "The Navy Day" - Cost: 50 Doubloons
    • Standard battle performance bonuses
    • +75% to XP earned in a battle
    • +75% to Commander XP earned in a battle
    • +75% to free XP earned in a battle

 

  • "Commander's Day" - Cost: 60 Doubloons
    • Standard battle performance bonuses
    • +250% to Commander XP earned in a battle
    • +250% to free XP earned in a battle

I see there were plans for the excess of doubloons we are suffering after exploiting the summer sale.

A free Alabama would be nice. Though it would be nice enough to even see a supercontainer  :Smile_trollface:

I'm not surprised by it...

 

Why should anyone play the IJN Boat line when it's basically just kinda mediocore and the final thing is shimakaze when you can have a Khaba which is OP as [edited]and needs the same work?

Working for a Security company that uses abbreviations up the wazoo my brain is not translating SSE event to get the Dunkirk containers.
to me SSE stands for Senior Software Engineer or Scottish and Southern Electric.

anyone want to translate into Common English and prove that they are a VCATIAAOF

At least you can sell those special upgrades for credits if you wish so.

 

Anyways, nice to see the radial quick command menu with this patch. Now if they could just fix the chatsystem in port. Nah, more likely we'll see KGV at tier 8 with 14"ers than that fix to happen :Smile_trollface:

 

 

And I love this:

 

"the thickness of plating in the bow and stern parts of Tier VIII-X aircraft carriers, except Enterprise, was reduced from 21 to 19mm"

 

It's not so big deal as the Shiratsuyu thingy but still:

If you want a ship that doesn't lose her value, buy a premium one :Smile_trollface::Smile_bajan2:

Ahhh..... I guess the HMS Gallant won't be in the Premium Shop (on the 20th) but it can be earned/won with crates. :Smile_sceptic:

Quote

For completing a chain of SSE missions. Apart from that, this container will offer a tiny chance to receive the Premium British Tier VI Destroyer HMS Gallant.

When a bug fix justifies compensation...

Because RNGesus forbid they actually nerf BBs for once.

Lesta already nerfed a few premiums, so even those aren't safe.

Like Gremmy losing the invisifire? Tbh, she's still a very solid ship. But overall they (WG) are hesitant to nerf premiums.

Why?

Seems strange as Gallant is a requirement for daily missions to win containers.

I expect Gallant to be released tomorrow.

Yeah, indeed.

Also applies to post-CBT Sims, Blyska and Belfast's invisi-fire, Warspite's heal and AA, Yubari's AA (although it received DFAA  later, which makes it useful to disrupt drops).

The americans get it tomorrow along with the patch sooo since we get the patch a day later i would expect the gallant would also come on the 20th for us.

Though i would not mind being wrong.
