WG is a company that selectively kills off ties to part of their community because they dont like the criticism they recieve, this approach never worked out for anyone nor will it for them, with that attitude I predict the game is dead within a year with maybe couple of thousand players worldwide remaining prob on a merged server and then curtains for the servers no later then 1.1.2025 WG is welcome to prove me wrong With this I am signing off, god bless

It is, not from the CEO though he doesnt concern himself with such things thats what mid managment is for

IMHO the best option is to cut all follows, subscriptions etc to remove oneself from the lists WG follows and counts as "community" ASAP (where one has an option to write why do so) and stop giving ANY MONEY WHATSOEVER to them, the way they gave 3 day notice for forum is the hallmark of their respect, the same thing can happen in a week with the game server as such so spending anythign here is pointless I ll rather go and smoke a cigar or buy a bottle of wine and drink it with my wife then give it to people that have 0 respect for their customers... Boycotting a game is not a bad thing if onew can organise it BUT TBH during sommer the mid management will just write it off to people going away for vacation so its not gonna be noticed by anybody important...

Thy want positive feedback or silence, negative feedback doesnt interest them, never has and never will, they think they are infalible and everything they touch will turn to gold... Well we all know how it ended for Midas

No i deleted my FB account like 5-6 years ago and dont intend on making another one ever

Exactly

Well if we learned anything in past 7-8 years is that if any WG affiliate makes any claim about something not being planned its 99% probable they mean the exact opposite

I decided its def nowhere I unlinked my wows account from everthing and left the WOWS discord, without the forum I have no interest in the "community" activities WG offers

I unlinked WOWS account from all social media stuff I had enabled, amazon, twich, youtube, google, left the WOWS discord server as well thats all from me silent majority it is WG

Nope, while one might call it “better then nothing” I decided that wont cut it for me this time, when I get home I am cutting off all subscriptions related to WG from twich and discord, when they kill the forum in 2 days I am going to the “silent majority” category

Took a look at the Reddit and Discord and honestly I think I ll be checking out from WG channels they can have their churn to themselves and GL to them…

Dude IIRC what you said you retired as an experienced officer, reflexes are not (and were not for a while really) the staple of your role as an officer, grunts need reflexes, you need solid judgement, thats where experience of 100 hairy situations you pulled yourself and your men out of comes to play, reflexes are for the young it always was and will be like that

Ditto I am jabbing in online stuff since IRC/ICQ and browser wars and this is onr of if not the most ridiculous thing I have seen a serious company do in that time…

Well IJN thought the same when they launched Pearl Harbor attack, we all know how it ended for them... First they need soemthing to actually market that target audience is ready to spend moeny on, IMHO this game is to nieche to realistaically hope for massive player churn like an average mobile game but hey WG knows best right? I am sure that any hope of getting any money from me ever again has died yesterday and I used to spend BIG BIG money on this game

Will? TBH they already are

Nowhere prob, I am on WOWS Discord basically since it came online but never posted much there, I dont find it a replacement and I am not interested in the short term discussions so I guess I ll just find something else to do

Yes but paying for the place where most people still lingering there are moslty negative about your corporate decisions and communication culture makes this a prime place to start the fat reduciton surgery... Come now, that will be the last thing to go, I bet you prem shop outlives even the game server... Anyway I say next thing getting (fully) moved there will be customer support

Nope that would be followed by an immediate delete of content in 3 days and it stays onlinje till october, more like 90 day notice in similar lines but the acconutants decide they can cut that cost...

Jokes aside I suspect the bean/acc-ounting has struck again...

This

Agreed, I was regrinding the Halland branch last couple of days and Oland neted me easy 2000 treshold in the process, for people really wanting those permanent bonuses (for whatever reason) that can actually do something with those mid tier CLs/CAs it should be a cakewalk really…

Jarheads are excluded

Who cares any bonus pack below T10 is usless anyway and for t10 there is the steel option...
