WG don't care. Patatoes spend alot of money. It's as simple as that..

It's sad that people are unable to see through any of this. And if they do they don't want to hear it. How many times in history have we seen that? No better than WG themselves. Funny...New....World

But they don't care and they wont have a fist full of feathers in the end, that is the point! Games do not last forever, WG know this and have always know this. They need to milk as much as they can NOW for other "ongoing projects" which they are doing very well with. And if you lot don't know, but I have said multiple times, WG are heavily into property and land building, epically on the island of Cyprus where it's a Russian haven (and not really to do with tax dodging, more to do with not being accountable to the Russian Government). They even have the leading shares in Cyprus biggest bank! When this games dries out and the Golden Goose is cooked, they already have an established fall back. THIS WHOLE GAME is to finance that. YOU/the players are financing that project where the game sees only a faction of that profit. The rest is going into deeds, bricks and mortar.

No. They just don't wanna listen to what they don't want to hear. And they probably DO know better regarding gameplay. What they probably DONT know better is WG business practices. WG does not have the ability to have an open mind, the word practically doesn't exist in their HQ. .............. CC - "WG, this will be a great change to the HE mechanic we currently have in the game". "It will stop this from happening, people spamming this from here, better for the players, wont have to regrind this and will save time for this?" WG - "Will it sell ships? reduce the worth of premium ships? Will players spend less money because of it? Will they grind less and thus not spend money"...The last thing on their mind, if at all, will be GAMEPLAY. Money trumps everything. ................. Both you and I know, it's not about gameplay..It's about the almighty money spreadsheet. If that doesn't factor into it, it's all white noise regardless of what anyone says about anything. Deadeye is an example and even the whole captain rework. Rushed, hardly tested by the players and then thrown into the game and NOW they are changing it. Because if that was tested, by those people you claim to "Know better", your trying to tell me not ONE of them wouldn't say: 1) "excuse me, this skill is stupid on SOOOO many levels"? 2) "you gonna spend how much on respec??? 3) "way more grinding to do for skills" 4) "the balance between 10 point captains and 21 captains is huge, how is that fair" 5) "I know need 21 points for something I could have got for 19? Huh? What is in it for the players??? 6) "the gold rate for conversation is madness" White....Noise.... WG - "Will the rework make more money chuck? "Yes it will boss", "right go ahead with it..." When enough people see smoke, there is normally a fire, but that's not what the insurance company wants to hear is it.

I only have 2 silver ships I keep in my port regarding tier 9. Only 2! I only keep ships I enjoy or brings me a different playstyle that is solid. The Donskey and Flecher. If I had 2 pema camos then that is where they would be going. But you can't go wrong with the Kitty, I just don't play it. Fletcher in many ways is better than the gearing and the Donskey just seems to click with me and back then I like it alot more then the Moskva. Both are great silver ships IMHO. As for tier 8? Akizuki and Lighting are solid picks, and the Bis for fun and enjoyment proposes. I'm also a fan of the Tallinin so that has my free perm cameo but i don't play it that much. Tier 8 is actually the most interesting tier IMHO but most of them are Premium ships (lennin, Massa, Kidd, Cossack, OP Enterpise ect)

As we all did at some point. There isn't many of us that started out being super critical, well back in 2015-16 anyway. Now it's ten to a penny and with good reason. Only the usual forum undercover WG employees have remained the same. Luckily they were identified quite early and are well known. Happens in all game forums, it's business. We even started threads back then to help fellow players coming into the game. We actively helped new players with tips, tricks and advice. I even started a CV thread back in 2016 to help wanna be CV players cope and learn the old skool way to get better with good players helping me in return. To HELP WG... I even brought people into the game from other games as it was new, exciting and had the potential to be a great honest game with lovely graphics. Well... With each passing year, even month, that has been completely sucked out of me. There is no way on earth I would advise anyone to play this game, purely to do with WG money takes all philosophy and greed. You see I'm of the old skool generation. Those that cared about reputation and customer relations. Morals and principles. Or as we say "not being made a mug of". Having been around the world and experance and seen many thing, some good, some dark, you start to gain an understanding that things are hardly ever what they seem on the surface. Question everything and trust nothing. Trust is earned, not given. And I don't trust WG in anyway, shape or form. Years of lies, bad decisions, horrendous PR, money greed, power creep, ignorance of its players, streamers and testers and the list goes on....and on..... And on.... Apologies for swinging the lantin and I don't mean to patronise anyone or say that all the young are gullible, but we now live in a different world where peoples morales and conscience is seriously lacking. They say one thing (WG is bad) but still pump money into the game (buy new ships). Hypocrites. They either fail to see the toxic wheel they create or they simply don't care, like throwing a piece of rubbish out the car window. But it's only a piece of rubbish isn't it right? It won't hurt I'm sure and someone will pick it up.

And I hope he really does with the shackles off...

Back. Just had a game with Enuf in the enemy team who wiped the floor in the end but we COULD have won if it wasn't for our incompetent team throwing their ships away like crippled chickens with the BBs boarder humping from both sides. Ah, another one game a night for me. I WASNT looking forward to the rework, I am NOT a fan of the rework and I DIDNT expect more diversity. I was not disappointed in the slightest. When will people in this forum learn. It's been what, 7 years??? MONEY..... Money.... Money.... Money.... It's all to make more money. Rework? Money. PR? Money...Rework? Money.....ect.,...ect...Oh and to buy up Cyprus property too and own their biggest bank. If people can not put the two together then they need to leave their house, live and experience the world out there. It's not all computers and pixels.

Seen it a mile off mate.

WG have yet again produced another PR disaster. Love to stay chaps but I miss seeing seas of red on my in game MM in tier 10 games

Money and all that that comes with it. Kicked has helped him more. Are you that naïve.

"Be seen as biased" I quoted. Try reading next time, dude. But good luck next time.

The fact that they kicked him speaks volumes. It's as simple as that. Flamu could have massively helped this game out of trouble but over the years it's ground him down to where we are now. He had nothing to say that was good in this game anymore, he feels like MANY of us old timers feel that has seen this game destroy it's self by simple corporate greed. He simply had enough. Every change, every wrong decision, every blatantly igorned tester you sucker in and in WG quest for more money at the expanse of gameplay did him in and turned him against them. Funny old world. Only that WG employee Zoup is left now. He is a different level of zelot that guy.

The fact that you have MODERATOR under your name means that you will always be seen as biased. Regardless of anything else. It comes with that title and you have to live with that.

Amen.

KoTS XII might not, but you failed to mention anything about future ones or Subs (and the reason you brought them out, to get them into the fold). You need to brush up on your PR mate, your losing it and reading between the lines is becoming more obvious now. I think you have simply ran out of steam. Everyone here, as you can clearly see, isn't interested anymore. The years have took their toll and they simply don't believe a word you say. Or shall we take out the big old book on WG past history and how you have failed to support us, your customers on multiple occasions? It's shocking. I cant even believe you still hold the Community Engagement title. How are you engaging with anything that isn't WG spun??? You might as well call it PR department, which you always have been. Talk about a vote of no confidence. So the money spreadsheet suggest Flamu isn't helping or playing ball. Well thank god one of you have grown a pair. We all have kids to feed and keep a roof over our heads, but you sir need to grow a conscience at some point. I wouldn't last 2 days in your job (don't like lying if I can truly help it) and you wouldn't last 2 days in mine (you can't really lie). Some of the stuff you and your bunch of merry men come out with to spin WG is just cringe worthy during your streams. Cringle worthy. I actually feel sort of sorry for you, truly. Free speech brother, you should try it some time. I would put a funny but accurate meme, but your cronies gave me a warning last time, even though they didn't have a clue what they was talking about. It was like talking to young teenagers.

Back in my day the CV was a team ship.

Currently sits in my port rusting. Far more interesting crusiers at tier 10 which can impact the game more. Just don't think it very versatile in a place where crusiers are having a hard time. It's still a good ship which is good at damage farming, but it doesn't have the style for me to really impact games IMHO. Just so many damage farmers in this game now that it doesn't stand out as much. Your just as bad as some BB players spamming at the back, like the Hindy now. Heavy and light Crusiers should always be supporting DDs in some form (light for anti DD and heavy for anti light crusiers trying to support their DD). But even WG have screwed that up now.

As the last one was taken down without an explanation (it just vanished or swept under the carpet), I have created another one as the other one was just getting into the swing of things. In keeping with forum rules, please do not name the person in question: edited Sucking up all the damage from the map and killing the ship to win us the game on points, we scrapped through, but i am surprised to have won it but this guy came rock bottom and did NOTHING and HIT NOTHING. And i mean didn't even try to hit anything.

These are the potatoes WG are looking for $$$$. He has 4 premium ships already...

As I have already stated , due to WG not bothering or caring about limiting certain sub groups, supercrusiers, heavy crusiers and light crusiers fall into the same crusier bracket! Randoms its forgivable (as its a cluster anyway) but competive scenes need hard caps on ship types. As 3 past seasons have shown, supercrusiers are simply better to use when CVs are not around (thank god) . Unless you have in mind a HE tactic or a DD combo which only very very few groups use to good effect (its very squishy and when pushed melts). From one night we have already steamed up into the next league and all of our crusiers were super ones. Do we remeber the Balancedgrad season which was a joke? What WG could do is limit the CLASS of ship, not the ship its self. So only 1 supercrusiers or 2 heavy crusiers, something like that. However that would be admitting their mistakes and not sub classing ships which they won't do so.... But so far people are trying different set ups but already you see the "usual" suspects show up. And this season without CVs? THANK GOD and may it remain. Teams can actually use tactics this time. I can't see anyone wanting CVs back in CBs. Well, those that actually care about gameplay not their own stat padding agenda.

The ball is in your court. And don't take this personally but don't worry about the high expectations. The bar is set very low, practically subterranean. Just set the foundations first. And remember to the players, "money" gains are not a good reason (I can read between the lines). I would say look into why certain ships are restricted? Give you a hint, they might be too strong for the tier?? But I'm sure you already know that one so I don't expect anything to change there . Anyway, you've taken the first steps so good luck and prove me/us wrong.

And don't just go off the numbers. As the majority will not have access to some of the broken ships in their tier you currently have in the game (tier for tier). Just because you see a lot of Jutland's for example, don't ban them because of "numbers". It's because many people CAN obtain silver ships and have them. You know what i'm getting at...*Cough* "Black" "Mashi" "Alaska" "Kron". However, if you do this right then i think you have done the right thing and an improvement for CB's. It only took you how many seasons and people telling you to work that out???. However, i am almost certainly convinced that you will somehow screw it up (apologies, just going off WOWS past record) and end up restricting pointless ships. I know you wanna sell premium ships, but stop screwing gameplay up because of that.
