Yeah, i think special mod is better that 7days premium, especially if you using premium already.

Last time i got SC, i got 50K free exp. To be honest i wanted some ship or special mod that i don't have :) Also 50K not bad, but wants something special from it :)

Well, I got 100 India Delta. In general I have about 1400 Juliet Charlie from supercontainers.

Would take 7 days of premium over those any time.

 

Also I don't know if you missed it, but these are completely free. You don't even have to do anything special for them.

Speaking of which: how is it possible now to get one of those special modifications? I'd really like to have a second Sonar Module for my LoYang.

Okay, someone gotta explain this grammar to me. At first I thought it was wrong, but I'm seeing this like, everywhere. And since I'm not english I just cannot know. So could someone enlighten me ? Is this correct, or false ? Is "would of" an official expression instead of "would have" or is this slang that's not officially correct but used anyway ? I'm confused.

I think it's just the wrong word.. It sounds like 'would of' but it's 'would've'. I think.. but I'm not an English speaker myself.

Very difficult - those who have more than they needed/wanted shouted very loudly and long and now the rest of us have to .... 'grind'... even more to get them.

 

They used to be limited to Ranked rewards but too many shouted unfair, or WG thought they could spread them out a bit. Now the rest of us just have to be patient, very very patient, very very very very etc etc patient.

 

I've had 3 in total so far, 2 speed boosts and 1 spotter (useful for DD's and my Perth)

"would have" is the correct way to confer that meaning. 'Would of' is a rough and ready casual way - with my rarely seen grammar nazi head on. (a lot of time spent with non-native english speakers/typers means a relaxed view to 'correctness' as it is better to communicate imperfectly rather than not at all :) )

[and my grammar can suck also]

Life needs a "How to make people happy" manual. It just seems that no one will ever be happy with the containers rewards since we never get a free ship. Then someone will still complain because he got the Krasny Krim or something.

 

Just remove the supercontainers, WG. Please do it.

Thomas Jefferson has a great phrase for that, slightly paraphrased - "WG gives you the right to pursue wealth and happiness, but you have to catch them yourself".

No , I think that Dragon Flags which I have recieved a few times 50 +100 and 1000 doubloons are perfectly acceptable. Yes I long for a ship but there are useful flags out there, especially the new high end ones, which if I understand it correct can be find. ONly SC after update was a fantastic upgrade (well the speed module I accept gladly), so we will see if other things turn up.

I will not naturally jump with joy but crap is too harsch.

 

The one thing I dread is when it finally become a premium it is the Krazny Krim of course, not Kutuzov, Kaga, Grem or something that I want.

50k Free XP is an excellent SC...

 

The modules should give us the option to pick as then we could all take Speed Boost or something rather than pointless stuff.

This is erroneous. It comes from the way it sounds when speople speak, would've is pronounced like wudev and of is pronounced like ov, ergo people end conflating the word of with 've. You will see loose (loos) a lot in place of lose (looz) too, and that bugs me to hell.

I received two SC in a row, on the same day. Speed flags and 50 Restless Fires camos.

 

Not disappointed, as the previous containers were 1M credits and several duplicate upgrades. Imperator Nicolai is for another time, to join my free Kutuzov. :Smile-_tongue:

The topic is about super containers, not English grammar, if you are bored and no have sensible contribution to the topic, then find something else to do.

 

Regarding the Topic, after 50-60 games since update 6.8, No SC's, :(

I do hope you meant to say 'containers' instead of 'games', but just made a mistake.

 

If you run premium account, 50-60 games should net you around 10-15 containers, if you're performing well, perhaps 20 if you're also stacking up bonuses. That's way too few to justifiably feel denied. Now when you play >1000 battles and don't get a SC from any of the containers, a sadface will be warranted...

Games as stated, before 6.8, SC's were more frequent, maybe I'm just being greedy, TBH, I have given up trying and just click for flags n camo's now, and just click TYL on the final container for the day.

I always take the flags - you use up so many that every little bit extra you get is appreciated. Luck can still smile at you and just recently (1-2 weeks ago) I got a very welcome 50 dragon flags from a SC (the first one I had gotten since March or April).

 

As for containers in general I think it's a great idea that has a lot of potential, but they're a bit underwhelming in the current state. I'm not being ungrateful, I'm really glad we have them, just the rewards aren't all that special compared to some other options that are out there. But I understand that WG are afraid of losing out on potential profits if they're too generous, so that's how they're handling it and I'm fine with that.
