I don't even want to think about how much Free XP I wasted on the Lexington hull upgrade, the Essex, and the Essex hull upgrade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They just say later or late this month to get your hopes up. If everyone would just shoot eachother straight in todays society they would say March 31st! Expect Sapian!

373 x2_Weekends Beta Testers 824 posts 2,509 battles Report post #10 Posted March 28, 2016 Yeah I was thinking March 25 weekend, but they used that as their Soviet Cruiser launch weekend. So, at this point, maybe before 11:59pm EST March 31st? At best? I don't know. It's things like this that are indicative of Wargaming WoWS HQ not seeming to have their act together. But who knows? Maybe they do but due to the lack of communication it seems they don't have it together. We'll never know because they don't tell WGNA anything so the guys and gals and WGNA are left in the dark just as much as we, the players, are. Based upon everything I'm seeing, it appears they got the cart before the horse. They announced a premium CV to be sold, it was leaked to be Saipan, and after weeks, they wait until the last week of the month to add it to the game for Super Testers? I don't know, but is that right? But because they waited so late in the month to begin testing it, are there issues with it to prevent it from being sold? We'll never know I'm sure. But it's their game. They can do whatever they want. Even if it means losing credibility among the player base. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

21 AStudi0 Members 275 posts Report post #17 Posted March 28, 2016 at least we could have some an update from WGNA team ....kind of "due to testing issues Saipan will be on sale later bla-bla-bla..." IMHO: right now it's Hiryu without 30-40% damage output (fires) for ~50$ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A premium CV is a bit of a tricky subject, if they've changed their minds on something and that caused a delay I would not be surprised at all.

406 Frenotx Members 1,344 posts 3,206 battles Report post #23 Posted March 28, 2016 Really figured it would come today. I've heard that premiums tend to release on Mondays, and it made sense with that last contest ending yesterday. I was exited, since I have today of and would have had a lot of time to play with the new carrier. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T7 Sims and T7 Atlanta (a VERY unique ships) need a sister to collect our pain and qq For T7 Saipan needs bigger hangar and 2/3/3 (1000lbs bombs BUT due to low amount of planes (3) low chance for insane damage) Edited March 28, 2016 by AStudi0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
