The requirement to unlock Naval Rank VII should be even out across nations.
- Yes, the requirement should be unified and lowered.
- No, it’s fine as it is.
Considering that each of these costs 400,000 RP and 1,000,000 SL to unlock and purchase, I think it’s quite excessive.
What is the point of branch arrows if you need to research and purchase each and every single vehicle on the previous rank with no exception anyway?
Specially when there’s a huge disparity in requirements between nations given the availability of vehicles.
For instance, Italy unlocks Rank VII after 2 Rank VIs, and France, after just 1… but an American player needs to research and purchase SIX (6) such vehicles.
EDIT: Excellent news for British and American Naval players! My goal was to reduce the requirement to 4 so it helped Japan too, but this is still a very welcome step in the right direction; and, to be fair, I didn’t specify either.
Also- to be fair as well, I didn’t specify the 4 ship figure on my original post; I left the measures to be taken up to Gaijin themselves. Maybe if I had specified it could have been achieved, or maybe it would have been deemed too much for them.
In any case, glad now American players don’t need C*lorado to get Iowa! (Or Alaska).
