1,046 [WOLFG] Colonel_Potter Members 1,252 posts 21,798 battles Report post #1 Posted October 31, 2022 The price for the whole premium battle pass will be 2,500 doubloons. That will allow you to get extra goodies, plus the premium tier 7 once you complete the Battle Pass chain. Much cheaper than I expected. $10 for extra goodies and a premium tier VII is quite the deal in my opinion. (And yes, I know I was quite snarky in my original post, lol. And yes, I actually do feel kinda bad about it now.) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair we're not losing ALL of them, we get a tad more coal and steel, but a hell of a lot less of silver and bonuses. The loss of the daily 500xp bonus is particularly regretful. To everyone who's overjoyed at the good reward at the end of the first Battle Pass (the ship), I guarantee you it won't last. The subsequent ones will get worse and worse, you just watch. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

695 [WOLF9] kyesac Members 2,318 posts 35,881 battles Report post #10 Posted October 31, 2022 If 2500 dubloons is truly the monthly price I would seriously consider purchasing it for at least a few months. I have premium time for another 4 months. I have the original versions of three of the black ships that I like that are up for sale on Black Friday. I almost never buy Santa crates (maybe a few for fun like last year - no expectations). Not seeing any ships on the horizon that appeal to me. Time will tell. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had dabbled in Planes and actively played Tanks and because of that Unified Account stuff, had zero problem spending money on those titles. Then they bailed on that promise... I quit playing Planes pretty quickly but Tanks I was active in for 3 years or so. The equipment rework just did me in and I stopped playing, just logging in to collect easy rewards. I finally uninstalled Tanks last week and with it my 20k gold that Wargaming refused several times to move over to Ships. Understand that was gold bought with money as I never played Ranked or whatnot, for free gold. Of all the broken promises from these people it is the one that totally stripped away any bit of trust I had in them as a company and their employees. 2 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, they want to make more money, just like everybody else. At $10 the premium Battle Pass isn't way overpriced. The ship makes the premium pass worth it. I won't say this will be the only time you can earn a ship but IMO ships will be few & far between. The game is still F2P. You can still earn Battle Pass rewards without spending a dime. This is not bad at the start. Before calling it good or bad, we'll need to see how it evolves. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
