Wow WG, dont over do it will you? Technically, 1k Battle Points is 75,000 credits... so a 10k Battle Point win is 750,000 credits with no service cost or ammo cost. The camos are nice, though~ 1 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, the tokens should be used for camo, so if you play for the credits, you can play randoms. And you miss the XP point of the post. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just go out and play it, it's actually fun. Ehhh..its not really fun either. It looks pretty, the ships are nice, the ingame upgrade mechanic is nice, but overall? Not fun. The nice things about opinions is everyone has them. I think id play the mode regardless of how fun it was if i could earn credits and exp so that i wasnt wasting my premium time, as it is im not touching it. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
888 [MISRY] General_Lee_Miserable Members 858 posts 6,204 battles Report post #12 Posted October 31, 2020 It's not the best event but not the worst either. Falls in the middle for me. It would have better if they priced the T9 infernal camo a little lower. In game, the T9 camos are only 33% more than the T8s. Yet, the T9 infernal camo requires double the battle points of the T8. I guess that's my only gripe. If you are just exchanging battle points for credits, you can make serious bank. The mode is rather easy to get high battle point returns. As for not doing the elite captain XP this time around, I've noticed that WG has gone out of their way to keep us from banking elite captain XP with the upcoming skill rework. I don't think it was any coincidence that my least rewarded premium signals were Dragons doing the anniversary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A premium day equals more of everything. 25k is very easy to get, so you can put in a few hours a get a whole week of premium. Thank you WOW!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are under no obligation of giving anything... Thinking they "have to" anything is just entitlement I dont think expecting the bare minimum you get from every other mode is entitlement, thats just my thought process though. Also quite backwards thinking too. They dont have to give anything at all sure, but if they gave nothing how many people would play said mode? It feels like this is a test to see what the littlest they can offer is. Theyve been doing that alot lately actually. They arent entitled to me supporting them either. That is one of the downfalls of "Free to play" games. i dont object to putting money into the game so long as im rewarded properly for my time, once im not, they get no more money from me. This game isnt at that point yet. Ive got plenty of time left in it, but any mode that doesnt give me the bare minimum reward isnt going to get touched with a 10 foot pole until i have nothing else left to do.

If I were F2P, or I could pause my premium, I might get into the mode more. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
37 [TWE] ripello Beta Testers 93 posts 23,187 battles Report post #20 Posted October 31, 2020 For many of the same reasons as Princess Daystar, I have quit giving any money to them, including premium time. I now only play for something to pass time as I am retired. But I am very Happy that the game is available to play and all the work they have put into it. I have also uninstalled both WoP and WoT's.

Didnt see your reply till now, but thats the truth of the matter for me and this mode. Due to me having premium time, and it always ticking down no matter if i use it or not, im gonna use the hell out of it when i play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think we're within our rights to be surprised and dismayed that Halloween 2020 was not the ECXP/Credits piñata it has been in previous years. Right now I'm doing the directives for this patch as they come out in whatever way I find easiest, grabbing the first-win XP and the first crate of the day on regular ships (even the Kansas can do that, especially with the current first-stage being 10K damage), then going to Key Battles and playing that hard until the next directive opens. When I first made the decision to buy my premium time at Christmas in half-price, 360 day blocks, I did the sums. 12,500 doubloons is $CDN 63.00, or 17.5 cents per day. Given the price of playing video games in an arcade when I was a kid, this is obscenely cheap. One thing is for sure, though. Once I get both camos (I've almost got the first), I'm done with this mode. Edited November 5, 2020 by Ensign_Cthulhu 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
