97 amaROenuZ Members 354 posts 4,973 battles Report post #4 Posted February 18, 2018 Even if you don't get the BBs, you can pull some sweet flags from those crates, and they've got a guaranteed drop of an XP boosting camo. And that's on the free crates. I don't see where the complaint is coming from here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those French battleships are just teasers for you to try out. The whole line will be out in a few weeks, so practice being a little more patient. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm annoyed bc clearly if they're handing them out to the playerbase, the line is ready to go. WG is just trying to squeeze even more money out of this line.

When you release premiums like the ashitaka and the Chinese version of Perth, you shouldn't expect the ships to sell well if they can't even compete with the crappiest tech tree ships of the tier. Not saying to make premiums op, but they need to be competitive. Not to mention they make an absolute killing every time the santa crates come out. Those were out just a month ago, not to mention the money they're making off a slightly reskinned Yamato. I see no reason for them to sell these french crates. I usually buy everything wg releases but I can't justify these french crates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a normal tech-tree line which will come out soon. You're throwing away 7k battle account because you're impatient and petulant? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Roma sold very well, but while it has a specific playstyle, folks are frustrated by it often with its inconsistent rifles, in spite of Mouse's warnings.

1,762 Sir_Davos_Seaworth Members 4,272 posts 5,302 battles Report post #16 Posted February 18, 2018 My friends....I have also been looking froward to the French BBs ever since I bought a Dunk last year... Waiting does indeed suck, when you know the line is ready to go, but you are not the gambling type to buy crates. Not complaining, but yeah, I think wargaming could have done this different. OP, don't give up so easy, this to shall pass... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If wg wants ships to sell well the ships need to have been built imo. Bc surely what this game needed was a 3rd amagi class bb, when not a single one was completed.

Might be helpful to read a bit about the public test or the ongoing event event on the main server. However, if being informed is not not your cup of tea, best of luck where ever you end up.
