Aloha,

Let me say this, before this conversation goes further.

Follow the forum guidelines!

Personal attacks

Stat shaming, personal attacks, threats, phrases that are designed to be offensive, or attack someone, etc. This includes intentionally trolling other users in your post or attacking WG volunteers, staff, or partners. Be civil.

And this applies to EVERYONE.

They are bundles, which the coupons do not apply to. The armory coupons only apply to standard sales in the armory specifically.

No I am not saying that, I am saying that as an example that is over performing (hence the balance changes) it is a must have to people that use her in competitive play. AGAIN, this was not the intended use for these. Please do not put words in my mouth.

Data was gathered and for ANYTHING in the game, if it is over performing, balance changes occur over time.

These are just the first wave of UU announcements, there are more UUs coming and more changes coming, we also said this.

As for "make it into pre-nerf Henri?" this is not true, as Henry players VERY different to DM. You are comparing apples and oranges, they do not compare at all in play style or performance on a lot of levels.

You ask any competitive player what UU is 'required' for competitive play and 9/10 of them if not all of them will say the DM UU.

We have stated on several occasions over the past 6-9 months about the fact that UUs are suppose to be an option and UNIQUELY change how a ship plays, not be a requirement in order to do well. Yes you can do well in a DM without it, but with this mod, they can do much better in its current format.

Let me say this, a game mechanic doesn't make a player good. A player that knows how to use a game mechanic makes their game play even better. This was not what I said. My point is, once again, the UUs are meant to change how you employ a ship. Not be a unilateral improvement.

Aloha,

UPDATE! I don't need a screen shot! So in our system there was an error for some. The system sent you the old containers as was stated above.

This will be fixed soon and you will get the 4 correct containers!

Aloha,

So I am trying to do some digging but do you or anyone else have screen shots of these containers showing they are different?

Aloha,

So all the changes to the all the UUs and the new ones that coming in the future (no I cannot comment until they are publicly announced) have been changed to better balance them.

As we have stated before all the UUs are meant to be utilized to change how you employ and play the DM they are not meant to be a unilateral improvement overall. Right now, it won't necessarily do so. As you can still station like you might normally and play it the same (which is what we see) and throttle jockey and in some cases still stay hidden.

This was the reason for the change. We understand that some of the changes may not be particularly popular to some, but we would rather make them a choice not a requirement, which is pretty much the case right now.

In short, ALL the UUs are meant to change how you might play a ship and not be a standard, but that is not the case for the DM.

A good example is the Republic, main ...

Aloha,

We are working on this actually, I mentioned this awhile back because of the same reason, sometimes people literally have to cover up digits to count on their screen... but because some places use periods and some commas, what is probably going to happen is spaces so like 3 000 000 to show 3million.

Sorry it has taken some time for this to be done.

Folks,

Keep the comments and replies civil please and avoid personal attacks and stat shaming. Just because someone has an opinion that differs from yours, this does not mean you have to fly off to personal attacks.

STANDBY FOR WORDS FROM THE CHIEF.

Have you ever wanted to talk to a veteran? What about a World War 2 veteran? What about a Pearl Harbor survivor?

Well now is your chance! On May 15th at 4 pm central time Captain Bob Batterson will join us on the official World of Warships Twitch channel!

If you would like to ask questions about Captain Batterson’s amazing career and life, now is your chance! But you need to submit your questions to me on Discord ([WG] Hapa_Fodder#2054) or PM them to me on the forums before Friday the 15th! Come talk ship with Captain Batterson with us! Come talk ship!

Hope to see you all there, we will celebrate this amazing man and hopefully share some sea stories!

You're right, it is easy to answer, HOWEVER, because I know in the past we have given answers that were not holistic and sometimes confused people, I like to find the documentation myself, read it, get it clarified and give you an answer.

This is something I have been pushing for our community team since I got into this position so we don't just give you quick answers that may not be completely true or may mislead people.

And TBH, this is the first time I have had someone ask that I have noted about this question specifically. About having 5 Tier Xs and Moskva being one of them, but working on getting more tier Xs and only having say 2 and Moskva is one of them no.

No those dates are correct and have been what we have talked about for awhile, Sub game mode will start at the end of may and go through the end of Jun.

"If you have at least five Tier X ships researched, you will gain access to the Research Bureau" so in other words, if you had 5 tier X ships researched and one of them is Moskva and she becomes a special, we will still look at it as if you had 5 researched at some point.

As for not achieving 5 before the 0.9.5 deadline and then it being converted, I am doing some digging and will get back to you.
