Just curious to know how much money have players invested in WoWS since they started playing.  

 

Also, what do you spend your hard-earned $$$ on when you do?

Pretty low threshold, considering I spend $25 - $75 a month on this game under normal circumstances.

 

then there's the $1,500 I spent on a new computer only for WoWS.

Probably a little over $200 since Open Beta.  Usually premium ships, but I also buy the charity flags and Christmas crates.  I'm planning on buying a year of premium time (for the first time) if they have another 1/2 off sale on Black Friday.

I haven't spent any $$$ because I just can't rationalize that for this game. At some point I will (probably buy a couple of permanent camo for  t10s when I get there) to support the free game but other than that, the prices are too outrageous for me to spend  the money on (premium ship-wise).And I won't spend money on premium because I can do that free and don't mind the grind. I'm still sitting a free week of premium from the last task/mission thingy but saving it for when i can get best bang for premium at that time.

Probably 1k since i like having ships in my port

I see no problem with it, I get the whole its a free 2p and my friends always go why are you spending money on it, but frankly I see it no different than me spending money on my car or my pc or anything I enjoy.

It's embarrassing really, gifted a $50 pack of pumkin crates and had to buy them for myself....$15 for the save the Texas. No chance in hell I can resist the Kidd.....got drunk and bought $50 more of the pumkin crates for doubloons to justify buying the Kaga and Saipan and Dunk.....I can't even play CV........so when the Kidd comes out I'll be over 2hundy by midmonth.

Your poll should have been check boxes for some of these questions, so more than one thing could be selected. For example, I spent $200 on Halloween crates, I've spent way more than that on dubloons and even more than that on premium ships and I've bought camos and flags ... I have averaged ~$200 a month since I started playing.

Good point. I wasn't even counting stuff like the Texas lone star camo.

 

EDIT3: I think that the results of this will be heavily skewed as the majority of players never come to the forums at all. Only someone with some amount of passion would ever come here and mostly to publicly [edited] about game mechanics or whatever; i.e. the people who will likely be spending the most.

  No real figure, but I guessed 500-1k to be closest.

As for the what, all of the above.

Premium time; doubloons; signals/camo; premium ships; and event containers.

  I've been spending LESS on premium ships, because they're all either-

a) in the tier 5/6 bracket of piss poor mm.

b) carriers.

c) just not interested. (duca; Cesare. etc)

d) Cartoon ships.

  Signals and prem time have been coming from event containers, so I haven't had to restock.

I've spent somewhere around $50: some doubloons, some event items like Christmas crates, etc.

 

Typically an F2P snob and don't spend money on WoWS.

 

Some cheap anime content might get me to change my mind :Smile_teethhappy:

Looks at premium ships in port..... I might spend more than a few dollars on this game. :Smile_hiding:

Okay and interesting up til question 3.  You're missing the option:  Hitting the Lottery.  I don't spend because I can't.  If I had money I surely would.

Your second question is faulty.

I spend money on premium time, ships and crates.

Couldn't finish poll because there isn't a "nothing" option for part 3.

In my case "Ships with bacon-wrapped torpedoes" means:

"Something to make up for the bait-and-switch way they set up the Elite Captain XP Conversion Sale, making it appear almost exactly like the previous Ship XP Coversion Sale."

Question 2 needs to be able to pick multiple options.

Pretty sure he drops down on this game, he's got quite a few premium ships in port. =)

If you count the santa crates I sent people, it's up near a $1000 I've spent on this game.

 

Premium ships, crates, and buying premium time when the deal is to good to ignore.

We need multiple options for #2. I spend money on several things. I'm probably up toward 500, when the USN CA/CL split happens, that'll go up.
