its already been on sale twice so I think it will be a while before it goes up again.

 

I'm really hoping it goes on sale for Easter but I doubt it will.

Yes, it will go on sale at a time when you:

 

A) have no money.

B) are away for the weekend hiking in the Himalayas with no internet access

C) have just bought a bunch of other stuff in the store and can't justify more

D) All of the above.

It's been on sale twice already so far.  It's initial sale and then again in December, just before the holidays.  It will be back.  We just don't know exactly when.

this ship has been put on WG's "Why Bother" list

 

because it sold so poorly last time it was available in Europe

 

WG is having a hard time comprehending that Bundled Bundles sell Poorly™

 

People want the ship - don't want the bundles

Ironically, Tirpitz is currently on sale on the Russian server, along with Warspite, and Blyskawica.  They are a lucky bunch.

 

It will be back though.  Even if they were to re-release it with only marginal sales, it doesn't really cost them anything to offer something that already exists in the system.  At the end of the day, it's still more revenue with no additional development costs (as opposed to them keeping her on the shelf collecting 'digital' dust).

It could also be a smart marketing tactic. They know people on NA want it so they will make you wait long so that more and more people wished they had it and then when they do sell it again finally they can make a nice profit because people won't know when it will be on sale another time.

 

I have her and she is borderline my favorite premium. :trollface:

be careful what you wish for

 

there are substantiated rumors

 

Well now that they segregated the kiddy pool most will be fighting other vets who are blowing off steam in low tiers. I wonder how many "Mikasa needs a buff" posts we would see within a week.

It will go on sale eventually, such a profitable ship will not be taken away from sales forever, it will likely come around special events, or holidays.

It's a marketing tactic, but not necessarily a smart one.
