Because they are different topics where players commented on it. If you insist... here they are (didn't want to make my post longer than it was) As for the visuals... why are you focusing on the least important aspect? If you replied to my post at least you should have addressed all (or at least most) of the things I wrote, not just one or two. I will post examples of how you try to make realistic visuals which are getting worse and many players share my opinion only but I guess you don't read any feedback from your players so you wouldn't know that, would you? Not you personally but WG in general. Always writing "thanks for your feedback" but actually nobody gives a F about our feedback, at the end you do what you want even when everyone is against it. The worst details are in the sea surface which is less realistic in 0.8.11 than ever before. Especially when the sea is calm like a mirror which never happens in reality.

For the ones that need a short bullet points of the update... - The update is dedicated to British Heave Cruisers. You can obtain them in the INFINITE RANDOM BUNDLES so there is absolutely NO guarantee you'll get any of the ships, no matter how many bundles you get. (sound so appealing, good luck with that) - More directives, more grind, more temporary resources... you know - the typical WG event with nothing new - If you don't have the British tokens for the bundles you can always pay for (better) bundles using doubloons. Who expected that, huh? - Last update to receive a UU mission. If you don't get it in this update, the only way to get them will be through the insane Research Bureau nobody ever asked for. You can see the details in the dev blog section of the forum. - Clan battles of T10 as that's the only tier that exists in WG's eyes. No matter what event or mode they launch it's T10 99% of the time. Then they say they want new players and promote the recruitment BS which will never work with their current philosophy - There are some balance changes which a lot of players are opposed to. You can see the details in the dev blog section of the forum - There are other "improvements" which will have to be tested. The visual "improvements" usually look less realistic than the previous ones and are more hungry for the PC resources resulting in less fps and a worse experience overall. We will see if the players from the Balkans will finally be able to play the game as the whole 0.8.11 update was a disaster in that regard and WG did absolutely nothing about it That's pretty much it, I don't think I missed much. Enjoy the update and have fun.

Oh yeah, I forgot they removed the premium boosters. Then you'd have to pay the same amount as me - 15,000 doubloons even if you're much closer to finishing the shipbuilding. That was a genius move from WG, removing those premium boosters so that people like you are forced to pay 15k instead of the 6k which would get you the ship 2x cheaper. Amazing how scammy WG has become and so many people fueling their greedy scammy tactics.

Well, you were very close I guess. Now you'll have to spend 6k doubloons if you want it. And I'm pretty sure the "cost sunk fallacy" will work. Even 15k is not an insane amount (keep in mind that not a small group of players bought it for almost 60k doubloons) but I just refuse to be a part of that. I refuse to fuel WG's insane grinds and manipulative techniques. They will either go back on track or they will milk the small group that will approve this shitty behavior from them and the rest of sane players will find a game that will treat a player like a player that makes the game possible, not like a sheep to be manipulated and milked, every month with a different (yet again, almost the same) event.

I was just wondering where is the PR thread for today... We can't miss a single day without it. Well, luckily it will be over soon. In the meantime, the automatic shipbuilding has been stopped and now WG leaves you with the 'magic button' to buy the PR for doubloons. The 'limbo' state of the "sunk cost fallacy". They truly mastered the psychology and manipulation.

On a side note... I'd strongly advise NOT to sell any higher tier ship, especially T10. No matter how bad you think it is.

Freebies he says, while spending most of the day for the last month grinding like a lunatic

But I guess I should have done it in advance. If I change it now, I guess I still won't recover that replay...

Does WOWs keep only the last 30 battles or what? Not sure how the system works but I can't seem to find the specific replay about that timeframe. Looking at the time I posted, the battle probably took place at 23h LT (22h UTC) but the oldest battle I have in my folder is a bit later than that so it seems like it has been lost for good. Oh well, next time I notice this I'll make sure to either record it or save the replay in another folder. If anyone gives a F anyways.

Couple of threads and two weeks later.... still the same, absolutely no feedback from WG even though they said they will look into it and fix it. I guess they are busy preparing the loot boxes for the next event/patch.

So we have to pay additional money for a proper VPN just to play WOWs, since that's the only game causing problems? Is that your genius solution? "For some players who reported it here, it was clearly on their end" HOW SO? Am I included in there? Because I've complained for the last 20 days, I've opened multiple tickets providing reports and detailed information and so far WG did absolutely nothing to even look into it, let alone fix it.

Unlimited draws are another 'spit in the face' from WG I don't want to be a part of. I'm sure they will push this scam to many players (just look how many guys bought the PR despite all fiasco regarding the event) but each to their own I guess. When you enter the WG HQ there is a poster saying "How can we manipulate our playerbase into overpaying for useless stuff?"

It won't be solved because WG refuses to acknowledge the problem in the first place. You can see that from each and every post they leave. You can see that they are still stuck at the "please restart your computer" and "try to check your LAN cable" troubleshooting. Having hundreds of players complaining about the issue and disconnections happening at the same time is something they ignore, I guess it's easier that way. It's only "a handful of people" or "an isolated issue" as WG staff would say. Quite disappointing IMHO.

WG, you really suck and you learn NOTHING from your mistakes. First of all... again the same random bundles, WG RNG and everything that all players HATE. Way to start a new year with completely recycled system of rewards. Oh wait, it's different this time... You have an INFINITE amount of bundles, no guarantee at all to get something out of XX bundles like it was the case until now. And where is this exactly mentioned in the news article? That the bundles are not finite and there is no guarantee to get what you want even if you get XX bundles? So again... not giving full information and manipulation. Seems like WG quickly forgot about the last PR fiasco and moving on with new ones. Here is a screenshot in case WG decides to alter something without stating the changes. Wouldn't be the first time.

Here is gem I found today. Don't ask me how he played. Shouldn't be hard to guess. I'd post this in one of the "playerbase sucks nowadays" threads but those get locked pretty quickly so I'll just leave it here.

Well, this is something that was on my mind for quite some time and Flamu just made a video partially covering this... So what are the premiums you regret buying or ones that you would not buy? Why is WG making so many POOR premiums that nobody will play? Are they aimed just for collectors? Or they are there to have more "rewards" when paying for special crates? To maybe increase the chance of getting a premium ship but actually decrease the chance of getting a premium you want? What are your thoughts since I'm seeing more premium ships popping up now than ever before. Especially the same ships wrapped in another camo or other recycled techniques WG uses to sell the same ship multiple times.

Well, if we're comparing climbing a high mountain which requires a lot of physical preparation, dedication and fitness with sitting in a chair 15 hours a day moving a mouse and pressing few buttons... then we're really doomed as a human race.

So you forced yourself into completing the insane grind by playing day and night and drinking coffee? Are people from U.S. so underpaid that they cannot just pay $250 to get the ship instead? I don't get it.

From 22:37 to 22:42. Literally 5 minutes unable to re-join the battle or access the forums. Obviously, no battle results because by the time I re-joined... it was over. Do you know how many battles I had like this? How many resources and time wasted? Come on, this is UNACCEPTABLE.

Didn't reply straight away because I wasn't sure about that. I just played a co-op game where a Kongo sunk me. Then I zoomed to the ship and 2 front turrets were facing straight ahead and the back turrets were facing to starboard. They did NOT rotate at all. All 4 turrets stayed 'fixed' in that position for few seconds then they started rotating independently. I can provide a replay, just tell me how/where to upload it.

You get credits. And maybe a life afterwards.

What's this thread about? Is that one of the hundreds of players who grinded the PR for free? And they deserve something? Maybe an empathy but not from me.

LOL Did we post at the same time, after the exact same disconnection? Well, it must be on our end, right? I really can't grasp that WG cannot see when many players get kicked out of the game/sever at the same time. This is a basic information that is visible on their side. Yet, they continue to claim that no such thing is happening. I wonder why are they lying to because even a non-expert can easily see where the problem is.

I can literally make dozens of reports a day when there is a complete outage when I get kicked out of the game and can't even access the forums while everything else I do on the internet works flawlessly. I'll add this to the support ticket but just to see if anyone can relate.. At exactly 11:19:02 UTC (5 min ago) my ping went all the way to -35ms, I got kicked out of the battle and couldn't access the forums. Everything else worked with no issues at all. Then I always keep refreshing the forums because until the page re-opens properly, I don't even need to try to get back in the game because it's impossible.
