    some THX to year end

    I can agree on the first point, on the second, nope. You're too easily pleased and probably why wargaming have overvalued things like signals and camo's so much.

    Hayate release poll - RESULTS ARE IN!

    Where are the results? headline says results are in, well where are they? They should be on the first post.
  4. That was such a good game, I stayed middle not sure where to go with my smokeless irian...I thought I'd just hang mid and irritate as many as I could. You two owned the enemy up that one flank, nicely done. Late game they opened themselves up nicely to my guns when they tried to cut across the middle to try stop you.

    how can someones logic be so flawed

    We should make your question a test and anyone of a predetermined age and health who selects B would be led to a cliff and simply pushed off it - no words necessary. No loss and the oxygen in the air would be all the more sweeter, haha. You'd find the world progressing quite quickly after that. It's shameful that many of these types of people are not children, they're adults. When you look at the fact they're in tier 10 and played a couple fo thousand games already, you would think they knew something, but they don't.

    0.8.11.1, Ranked Sprint: Tier VIII Duels

    WG intellect at it's finest....just pure lazy. We really should have a poll on this december possibly being the worst one WG has put together yet. No logic to this at all.

    This Years Christmas Presents are a Ripoff ?

    It should be law that the drop chances are published for loot boxes, etc. I suspect that if they did we'd all see how pathetically low they are overall and this may affect their sales - I further suspect that the drop chances are rather dynamically altered from time to time without anyone knowing. My personal opinion, WG are not nice or good natured in any way, shape or form and all are guilty by association.
  9. Believe me, if coop mode was more rewarding I'd prefer bot company over more than 90% of this brainless, ingorant 'I only play for fun therefore cannot think' playerbase. Bit harsh, but true.

    Peurto Rico - who is actually grinding her

    No, not even remotely interested, and won't feel even little bit sorry for anyone who suffers any form of stress from trying - they have been warned. It's a great idea that's been very poorly implemented, driven by greed, and anyone actually trying to grind it is fully endorsing WG's very very questionable actions....and just so you don't get upset by any perceived negativity here, I feel very positive about my attitude toward this.

    WOWS 2019 - The Great Disconnection

    Well written OP +1. I personally don't mind the subs, but that's another story. Otherwise, you sum up everything very well. I've been playing a lot less lately, with WoWs falling from being the title I spend most of my time on. This is a prime example of developers and community teams completely ignoring their playerbase. When their own players are cast as outsiders to the way they do business and develop the game then it's a really sad day. Yes, so many here still lick their boots and praise them for all the 'freebies' they so 'altruistically' gift us, not understanding at all the pure business model driving it. When we complain we're being ungrateful, entitled, and threatened to have all those 'freebies' revoked....lol.

    Even CCs complain about Puerto Rico grind

    True, ESKOM is a very special example indeed, haha.

    Even CCs complain about Puerto Rico grind

    I think the fact they've basically sidelined all complaints about this ridiculous PR grind has sealed the season for me, talking about being dismissive. I'm not waiting for them to fix anything, they keep doing this stuff and thereafter issuing the usual BS about taking it forward and fixing it in the future...really, they still think anyone believes that??????? It's nonsense and quasi-political blagging. What they're fundementally saying is 'tough luck folks, live with it of leave'. I can't believe they've so quickly written off the season like this with a disaster, lol.

    Even CCs complain about Puerto Rico grind

    Just remember, it doesn't matter what they think and when and how they think it. Every little stupid move like this on their part damages their reputation, and in business a damaged reputation can cost them millions....especially in terms of lost earnings they could have generated had they not messed up so badly - they cannot quantify this because it's relatively unknown but my guess is it could have been substantial had they not been so arrogant and greedy. When their own cc's condemn the move, then even that should somehow spur WG into action, but so far they've failed spectacularly and this is because their senior management no doubt don't really play the game and as such are quite separated from us, sitting behind their corporate desks completely disconnected from the player experience. There are a few times in the year that players really look forward to the game, special events like their anniversary, Chrismas festivities, etc and it really is up to WG to make sure these events are not just hyped up, but deliver in all shapes and forms...what they've done this year is fumble badly. It's ultimately their own loss. All of their repeated failures and unwillingness to change show us just how much they hold us in contempt - they just don't care. This is what players need to realise, and when they do the relationship changes to one where we have all the authority

    biased mods

    I'm with you on this......Say Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaattttt??!

    Got a refund for boosters.

    Wow, maybe I'm being presumptious then. Man, that's harsh for the NA. Hope the players make them pay in the long term for this.

    Got a refund for boosters.

    Well done matey, good to know. Maybe they're realising it wasn't all such a good idea in the first place.
  18. 13 posts and 109 battles and not at all suspicious
  19. I suspect they're policing the forums a little more than normal to try limit the stink about the PR fiasco? Guess the best way for them to get rid of a problem is to remove those who are protesting that there is a problem or remove the ability to protest....if a trees falls in a forest and noone is there to see it fall, does it make a sound? blah blah

    What the PR PR fiasco cost wargaming?

    You have grossly understated quite a few things, which makes a few of your key points very urealistic. There is a very justifable level of outrage over this. It was a terribly cheap shot from WG who are still sincerely unrepentent and unwavering on what they've done. Many here want some sort of a concession on this, and the time to do it is now before its too late, hence the more noise we can stir up with as many people as we can the better for us. The problem is WG don't seem any wiser as to the damage they do to themselves, such is their disregard for players....
  21. I know right? You can't even begin to explain the lack of any form of intellect in his statement if that's his justification. How do people are regressive as this have so much money??? It's clearly not through being intelligent or wise.
  22. We best be careful here----deleted the remainder because it apparently discussed a moderators actions which is in itself against the rules of the forum.

    HALL OF FAME for Puerto Rico

    I absolutely gutted one a few nights back in ranked....these guys buy the ship and then charge forward like stupid heros' - he died in the first 2 minutes of battle..what a numpty. No common sense, but then we knew that already didn't we? We all know that guy!
  24. I think you need to fire fox and stick with chrome instead..... Nah, ignore me, I have no idea what you are even talking about, just wanted to sound stupid. Edit: They're not showing up for me in FireFox either. Safari shows them just fine
