And that was tied to an anniversary event, I am pretty sure.

Base XP on average, yes.
Battles played+XP earned+time from Tier X to Tier X etc..
TBH, also, the amount of content that was in the game when those of us that have been around since Alpha has sky rocketed so, this plays into it.
Like when I started playing it was 1-2 branches/nations, now there are how many?
-Hapa
progression was actually faster earlier in the game, believe it or not, I looked at this data recently.
Though we have access to more stuff to progress with, new players have to wait longer to use that stuff than we did back in the day.
As for the premiums, there are FAR MORE premiums available now because of progression of time. Access to those premiums for the most part is still the same, there just is FAR MORE of them so maybe technically it isn't? I can see this.

We wanted to do this originally but this proved to have logistical issues we had to work out since this involved players from across the globe on multiple servers with connections to live accounts so in the past it had to be done manually.

It's already being looked at, and has been.
So the DY and the German CV event will run parallel during 0.9.6, there is no conflict so this will be fine.
Essentially what they are talking about in your snippet is ships that have the one off modules that are specific to a ship and only that ship. This is going away. I believe your explanation is correct, I am looking more into this.

Just wondering, what do new players get that everyone hasn't already?
-Hapa
I have been playing since second week of Alpha testing, we have NEVER given rewards for how much you play, we HAVE however, given rewards out for anniversaries the game has been live and the people that are still active on those anniversaries have gotten stuff in the past, but we only did that one time and is not the standard. We change the anniversary rewards every year.
Trust me we WANT to do this, but the logistics are significantly more complicated than people often realize.
The RNG for drops is the same across the board for everyone regardless of how much you play, always been this way, more than likely always will. We never have nor will we probably ever give the chances of drops out as this is the standard pretty much for every single video game publisher. What it boils down to is we tell you what you can get from the containers and people make a decision on if they want to purchase or not. Beyond that, this specifically is ...

The German Carriers event, Ranked Battles, updates to the Modules tab, and other improvements.
IMPORTANT! Because the Update is still being tested, the information in this Bulletin is tentative and reflects the state of game development at the time of its publication. Some changes and new features may be removed entirely or implemented differently by the time the update goes live. Screenshots, specific values of certain characteristics, and details of in-game mechanics will not necessarily be relevant after the Update is released.
NOTE: You won't be able to obtain German aircraft carriers IV Rhein, VI Weser, and VIII August von Parseval on the Public Test server.
German carriers
Update 0.9.6 kicks off a new event centered around German carriers! The Early Access ships will become available on the Live Server only when the Update is released. Meanwhile, we invite you to take part in the testing of the event.

"What do you mean, 'Allies?'"
Folks,
ALL our PTS rewards are MANUALLY put in and credited, this takes time. As for the seasonal rewards.
-Hapa
Commanders!
The results of individual Public Test iterations and the Public Test seasons are calculated separately. Rewards for PT 0.9.5 missions have already been awarded, but we are still summing up the results of the entire “Spring season”. Expect the following prizes to be awarded by Monday, June 22nd:
• Seasonal emblem for completing two personal missions.
• Unique flag, patch, and “Premium Ship VI” container for completing three personal missions.
The "Veteran of the Public Test" award—for those who collected four different seasonal emblems—will be given out together with the rewards for Public Test 0.9.6.
Mahalo,

Aloha,
Thank you to everyone that participated, there were some really amazing screen shots!
Congrats to @Wabbit_Season1 @TheArc @Daffyd9x @AuroraDragoon and @LiskaBystrouska for winning the week of premium time!
Don't forget to share the contest with your friends, the more people that participate, the more stuff I'll give away! I'm trying to start giving ships away so seriously help me help you!
Mahalo,

Um, the ONLY change from how we used to do it before is you're not clicking the button now.... it's automated.
I assure you, I would be VERY impressed if you didn't get rewards you were suppose to.
In fact, this will be MORE accurate as in the past it was a person plugging everything in one person at a time...
-Hapa
SERIOUS TATER ACTION!
If you guys think you didn't receive the rewards your deserve, please put a ticket in.
