[2021] Wargaming & Bearn: Buyer Warning, Miscommunication, Oversight, Action Needed

On it. We'll get that information added soon.

Hi, Merc!

Ive been out of the country so my forum-posting has been erratic, but I’m inclined to agree with you. A 2km spotting range for the fighters is a big enough change in mechanics that it should warrant a sentence in the blurb that pops up when you look at ship details I. The armory / premium shop.

When Ahskance and I featured it on our weekly stream, we did mention that the fighters only spot at 2km, but that’s not a realistic way to dispense information.

This was just an oversight of a less-obvious mechanic, and something we should absolutely take care to note in the future.

Thank you for bringing it up and being reasonable about it. I’m sure this is something to be avoided in the future

Bearn skip bombers are hyper-accurate. Other skip bombs are not.

This is a specific perk to the Bearn as she's not an offensive powerhouse.

Generally we do include that information. Every new premium ship has a small descriptor that goes along with it that states interesting or unusual characteristics.

@Merc_R_Us made the point that limited spotting on fighters should be included in that descriptor as it’s a big part of what CV’s do, and I’m inclined to agree with him.

I don’t think people who don’t watch all the media are lazy, but I also don’t think anyone is being “punished” as you say for not being told this. No one is being punished for not being told Nelson’s super-heal doesn’t fix citadel or torpedo damage.

You mean the coupon for doubloon ships?

It is not intended to to work on “packs”, only individual ships.

Can you confirm for me that you attempted to use it only on the ship and not the pack?

So, just to be clear - it DID work on purchasing the Bearn, correct?
