You can reframe what is being said constantly but that makes you just utterly boring to talk to. Raging feedback helps as well, and has been a major force in nudging Lesta's odd choices a bit. You seem hellbent on denying value of irrational feedback for some odd reason, while being all over the place yourself actually.

How about both. Or is that incomprehensible for you? Also, it took them 3 ffn years to adress the rocketplane issues, which they have been warned about for 3 years straight in reasonable posts with great arguments lol. ^^ God only knows what made them adress the issue after 3 fkn years

'Interesting'. Really. You think it's 'interesting'. What is 'interesting' to me is why you seem to think Lesta listens to reasonable presented arguments, when they dismissed tons of valid feedback over the years on buttloads of topics by their most knowledgeable and connected community members and only changed course somewhat when mass shitstorms were at their peaks. Whatever it is you are trying to say in your uninformed posts is actually the opposite of what has been happening for several years now lol. Yabba's type of posts have a long standing tradition here.

Regurgitating a pointless mantra 'forum bad developers sad' which keeps popping up in some form or another is as pointless as hoping Lesta will remove submarines or carriers from the game.

Pot, meet kettle

I get what you are saying in a way - irrational raging gets in the way of proper discourse - but good arguments are not cancelled by 10 fold rage posts, that's nonsense. Professionals simply ignore actual rubbish, but also are able to acknowledge that most emotional and irrational customer responses have merit. These responses are not without cause or reason, just expressed emotionally and irrationally. You keep denouncing that type of feedback as irrelevant or of little value in your post. It is not. Saying this type of feedback is without effect is also debatable looking at the constant changes and 2-3 years of failed development so far. But that failing is not due to players raging irrationally on forums, youtube, facebook, reddit etc, but on the account producers and designers failing to do their job bringing together company goals with customer demand. Subs are probably a raging financial and resource disaster so far.

I don't play DD's much these days, my former favorite class, but I hardly think it's unplayable for DD's. I think many players are just not up to it's harsh demands.

That's because its a broken POS lol. For me it's Napoli. I haven't played her much, but she's brilliant.

As a former game developer I can appreciate how difficult it is when a user base gets extremely emotional over certain subjects - but that emotion always has a legitimacy to it - and legitemate replies from knowledgable players can be found all over these topics, going unadressed. You are currently denouncing the forum as a whole as hysterical while creating a narrative where Yabba and the devs fall victem to an angry mob. A mob they created themselves by the way lol. All he does is poke the flames by arguing semantics, basing arguments on outdated information and neglecting the knowledgable part of the community. For as 'many answers' from the devs you say there are, there are a multitude of well thought out and argumented posts out there in between the rage. Most of those go unanswered while Yabba focuses on low hanging fruit. It's poor community managment. You know, his actual job?

There's hundreds of posts specifying why subs are broken, especially at tier X. Yabbas question asking the OP, who is known as a forum oddety, to specify why, is bordline condescending and insulting to everyone who's made an effort to write up their well constructed thoughts in the past months only to get ignored and unanswered by him. He selectively picked someone to respond to that he understands is 'managable'. Many of the objections from the first and second iteration still exist. Many of the arguments used by yabba are usually mere symantics. The years of neglect, lies and discontent by Lesta have done their damage and bred cynisme at the same level as Lesta has bred a player base that's broken. The amount of stupid sailing high tier special feature ships like subs and super ships is staggering. Why are you surprised?

I read Yabbas answer and now no longer think subs are broken. Everything is fine.

What you are actually saying is you don't mind getting targetted by nobs in carriers or subs.

Then Some are pretty dense ^^

It's a mind trick

Mansplaining 3.0. I especially like point 10. It's like getting prescribed aspirine when diagnosed with a terminal illness. This mostly. Short and sweet. The long version can be found in the endless complaints all over the forums, and probably your other 'social' outlets.

O lol, Lesta mansplains some more. It's both hilarious and quite offensive really.

200? We met a player in a super carrier on our team winning a whopping 19 BXP on a random match win that wasn't a stomp? And nope, he wasn't AFK, played actively the whole match lol.

Yay lootboxes! Yayyyyyyy.. Edit: seriously people here are suggesting its important to buy shitty ships no one plays, so shitty lootboxes wont drop those same shitty ships that no one plays. Really? Like, really?

Want

I posted some suggestions a couple of months back, but soon recognised trainwreck 2.0. I stopped thinking about it. I am currently just hugely dissapointed. I love submarines in games. But much like aviation gameplay which I love in a lot of other games as well, I just can't over what WG and Lesta do to it. It's just bad.

No its not a matter of taste. It is poor gamedesign.

Except it doesnt.

I really want to like subs. I do. But chasing a sub in wows to me is as thrilling as popping a zip: a neccesity, nothing more. There is no immersion, no suspense. Its annoying at most. Doing that in a light cruiser?

I agree about the danger aspect, provided there's good countermesures, in other words, a smart danger to be countered by smart counterplay. But so far all we see is mass ASW dropping and nothing much else. I'm sorry, but I dont understand the second part. Forfeit what abilities when chasing? I don't think tweaking at a stage where they are nothing more but 'tolerable', like the carriers, has ever made anything fun to play. 3 years of 'tweaking' emerged even more annoying gameplay variants of the class. Lesta is basically as shait in designing gameplay these last 3 years as much as WG failed to deliver a compelling warplanes game. They lost it. Not only in wows, but even new ips they tried.
