As stated in the original 0.8.11 patch notes, the Dockyard will remain until the end of update 0.9.0 to allow those who would like to finish it for doubloons the chance to.

If you are not interested, you can just ignore it and it will be removed next update.

It is clearly stated in all of our publications and even in the client that these are Early Access.

The Holiday patch is typically the biggest patch of the year to accomodate the fact that many people are off work and have time to spare to play and thus we release more content for them to enjoy.

With the start of the new year, both kids and adults are returning to responsibilities (school/work) and with staff having time off over the holidays, there is just not much point to releasing another heavy patch.

Certain regions have modified pricing offerings due to the economic environment of the region and cost of living.

For example Russia income levels are significantly less than US, as such their pricing is scaled to accommodate that. This is also the reason why players from certain South American regions also have reduced pricing.

VPNing will not work to manipulate pricing.

This is a known bug, we should have an intermediate fix for it shortly. Please keep an eye out for coms on the matter.

We'll have more details on this new camo in the near future ;)

Who knows ;)

That sounds like it may be a bug, could you please document it on the patch bug thread:

Not released yet, will be a little closer to LNY.

I learnt a long time ago to never take things the community says personally unless it literally is Fem you are [insert whatever] ;)

Ships does not have any skill based matchmaking mechanics.

Matchmaking is based on the following factors for ships:

+/- 2 tier spread


3 minute based hard caps for ship types


How often a player has been uptier'd in the last 20 games


5 minute cap for full games


Newbie safe cap (first 70 games)


Hard caps on ship types per games (Tier X CVs for example)

WG has not said so explicitly, but that seems likely.


@Femennenly could you verify this for us? If you get a ship in one version of the bundles, is it also blocked out in the other version?




No, it will not be blocked.

If you receive a duplicate EA ship from redeeming the two types of bundles (Royal and Imperial) you will receive credit compensation.

I'll get this sorted for you.

Sure, one moment. Let me find out.

- CV rework had its issues, something we have learned from as evidenced in our slow approach to Submarines

- PR Event; first time doing an event of this magnitude, give us a chance to learn from it and go forward from it.

- NTC: Original version scrapped because of player feedback, changed considerably before being brought back

- UUs: Compromised with extension for gaining and finishing for mission.

*head tilt...

No? Its just the facts of the promotion lol. Part of my position is clarifying player concerns so I have to use information to do this :P

All my responses are written by me :P I just have a very formal way of speaking.

Could you also detail this bug in the patch related bug section:

We've already conceded there was failures of the PR event and its promotion.

We plan to work on that going forward, hopefully we'll have more information soon.

Couple thousand*

We have an automated system for crediting but we need to pull lists and submit them, we're hoping to have it done by the end of the week.

I appreciate that recognition. We all have our strengths and weaknesses tho, I know there are definitely areas I fall short where other employees excel.

There is a lot we can take away from the PR event, and hopefully we will continue to learn these lessons and adapt them into future content and contest designs.

Even with my WG hat on, my opinion is pretty much the same as with it off.

Theres always been offered a certain amount of opportunity to gain free containers/bundles/etc


Theres always been offered a means for players willing to pay, to get access quicker


The means of which we're offering is different, but still kinda the same - Containers v Random bundles - both still contain a random chance to get the items, but there is a limited number you can get.

In previous EA events, you'd get the containers via Directives.


There is no difference in getting tokens, and then redeeming those tokens for bundles.

Looking at the EA IT CA event for example, you could receive 23 containers from interact.


For the EA RN CA event, you can receive enough tokens to redeem 30 bundles.


I think its...
