I couldn't get any of those codes to work, even when trying them moments after posting, always said invalid. I got an email though, maybe using one of my own codes invalidates mes?

Did anyone playing NOT get these codes? Because otherwise posting them in the thread where we play boats is fairly pointless.

WHAT WILL IT PROVIDE? Active players (like yourself) will get: point 1x random container point 1x container with resources line For those who haven't played for a long time, we've prepared a more generous bonus: point 7 days of Premium Account point 3,000,000 credits point 7x containers with resources line Those who have never played World of Warships will obtain the most lavish rewards: point Cruiser III Kolberg point 30 days of Premium Account

I hadn't received any codes despite actively playing, so they must not have sent them to everyone. Maybe you had to have a certain number of battles or have been playing T10s or something?

Realistically, is there any ever chance of Smolensk being made available again? I know its regarded as nearly as cancerous as CVs but I have a hankering for a spammy/dakka ship beyond my Minotaur and Atlanta and am even toying with the idea of getting a Colbert.

If you are still having issues survivng in Minotaur, do not get Colbert, you'll just be frustrated. I would suggest Nevsky - it absolutely excels at open water trading with ships pushing into it.

I wonder if wargaming will just go gently caress it and start releasing ships again that they pulled from the store. They eventually did on WoT. I'd like a chance at a Missouri or Benham.

# ? Oct 28, 2020 04:25 |

Benham, Smolensk and Enterprise are the three I want. I know Kutusov and Belfast were considered on a similar tier of OP-ness but I honestly think both would be fine in today's game. I think Fiji is almost or just as good as Belfast anyway.

The Mikhail Kutuzov would be fine in game really, its nothing really specially outside of its smoke cloud. It has longer then expected range on its guns, but its fine. Belfast is still stupidly strong through, having smoke, hydro and radar, while being tier 7 is incredibly strong, not to mention it gets slot 5 upgrades too.

Belfast is OP at tier and pathetic when down tiered. You think a Georgia gives a gently caress about your Belfast? It's kind of a great example of the badly planned out power ramp up across the tiers.
|
# ? Oct 28, 2020 16:32 |
|
This is why I think Fiji is a fine alternative to Belfast. The torps are a deterrent to a BB just rushing you. I did have to play a few games in my Fiji recently for the campaign and it is just such a perfect ship.

gently caress, I've checked the numbers and I'd need around £100 in IRL money to convert all my free XP and "buy" an Alaska... That doesn't seem like good value for money.

I'm being harassed into coming back to this, and saw there's a premium Georgia. Being from Georgia, I'm compelled to buy it...is it any good? Also, have CVs been purged yet?
|

# ? Oct 29, 2020 10:53 |

The Georgia has engine boost and hits hard, I hate going against them if their captain isn't an idiot; so it's a good ship. On CVs no they added more fuckery like the FDR; the torpedo bombers look scary but aren't, however good luck trying to kill the planes, and then my N Carolina gets citadelled by it's 300 bombs. Speaking of spending money on stuff - what is worthwhile and what isn't worth spending the money on? Premium is a no-brainer at high tiers, but if doubloons for XP is bad, what else can/should be purchased?

CV's haven't been purged but are a lot different to re-2019 if that's when you last played. They don't do anywhere near as much damage and the lottery of a good CV player on one team completely negating the other is gone, but they can be just as obnoxious especially at T4 when opponents can't even shoot down planes. Georgia at T9 is one of the best ships in the game and honestly even if it was a T10 it would hold its own. Absolutely the first coal purchase anyone should make in this game. Money: Premium is a must - I couldn't recommend anyone to play the game without it. If you come back and login to the game and don't spend anything you are likely to get pop-ups in-game with a 30% off coupon valid for a few days. Either just buy Premium directly with that or I think you might be able to even buy loads of Doubloons then get Premium that way and it might work out more efficient (I don't know). I got a 30% coupon when I rejoined about 2 months ago and bought 6 months premium. About a month later I got another one (might have been anniversary related) and bought 35k doubloons. I then used my -25% off Doubloon ship coupon (you get 1 per 6 months) and bought myself the Indomitable for 9k Doubloons. So probably 50% off its true cost in the Premium shop or armory. Free XP - you shouldn't ever convert at 25/1 (and thats a mistake I made many times years ago) but at 35/1 which you get every few months as part of some event I would justify it if close to something like a ship such as Nelson or Alaska (which is similar to Georgia in being completely OP at T9 and would be a very fine T10). Apart from that I only use Free XP to skip all stock grinds.

FDR torpedo bombers are literally the most scary squadron right now. You can use WASD to turn them during the attack run and they don't lose accuracy. So you can do things like turn a full 360 and still land them on target. In practical terms this means any BB or large cruiser will always get hit by at least 6/8 torps every drop, and lose 20-30k hp.

Yeah, a lot of players don't know about "The Technology" - even dudes we're seeing in Typhoon clan battles don't seem to know how to Technology drop yet. It also can turn the bombers during drops with no penalty, but the turning rate on the bombers is way worse for some reason so it's not nearly as bad. Still though they can turn to adjust to your BB trying to angle, bear it in mind.

Premium ships, premium account, and if you really want to spend money on xp/credits you can spend it on special economic flags (the triangular ones with dragon names). The reason never to convert xp is that those dragon flags give you a much better money to xp conversion rate, even if there's a sale on xp conversion.

Also if you're just coming back and haven't played in awhile, use one of those codes people posted in the thread a page or so ago, it has better rewards for returning players than active players. You might as well get free stuff.

You usually have to buy the premium containers and they contain the flags. Container pack with; 15x Special signal flags of one of the following types: Wyvern, Hydra, Dragon, Red Dragon, or Ouroboros, plus other poo poo. https://eu.wargaming.net/shop/wows/customizations/19398/ Cancelbot fucked around with this message at 16:13 on Oct 29, 2020 |

Speaking of spending money, the Xmas premium containers are often pretty good value if you don't mind getting random ships which may or may not be that good. But you'll also get a ton of flags and coal and premium time. If you have most/all of the premium ships in them they are often a good source of dubloons from duplicates, but WG has toned it down a bit for the last few years.James Garfield posted:Premium ships, premium account, and if you really want to spend money on xp/credits you can spend it on special economic flags (the triangular ones with dragon names). For people who haven't used them, you can be raking in 5-50k FXP per match with a full flag setup, especially now you can mount everything at once. Special events, extra large first win bonus events, and operations sometimes offer high base XP which is great for flag multipliers too.

That's actually one of the only RN CV gimmicks - the torp planes don't lose focus when turning with WASD. The difference though is that Audacious has 3 torps that do almost no damage and floods, and FDR has 8 torps for 36k and an overall huge chance of floods or incaps. Bear in mind this is that they don't LOSE focus. What you have to do is start the run, let the focus narrow down, and then use WASD. The focus won't get wider, but it won't get any narrower while you're doing it.
