Now seems to be fine so I guess writing a ticket now wouldn't be of much use. It's those frustrating moments when you get disconnected in the middle of the battle, especially more than once in a row. I got pink (3 battle penalty) and then again (5 battles penalty) because of the server issues. (as you can see not only me) Just FYI, I'm not asking for any compensation or whatever, just stating the issues that are noticeable in this patch so you can check and maybe improve/optimize it. I know you can't reply as soon as I state the connection problems (I'm watching you right now on the stream) but as you can see - a lot more ppl have the same issues as me (and at the same time) so I'm pretty confident the problem is not with my connection nor my ISP, at least on in the last few days. P.S. The "hate" was more like "Oh no, this guy again, with the same problem" but as long as I have it (while having no issues with the connection to any other website/service) I will complain. Also, I find that support tickets are mostly useless, unfortunately. Not sure who handles them but all I get are useless templates that don't help at all.

The EU stream went fine. CMs and (most of the) players were focused on the cause and it was fine. When they switched to NA it started ok but then they brought Boyarsky which immediately rang Russian bells, especially with the accent. Never heard of him so I supposed it's another CC or something but when he started talking (cannot use the BS word, can I?) about how players are happy with the PR event and the game overall, even Zoup got pissed and asked him to shut up and focus on the cause of the stream. Then I searched for him and found out he is an Administrator on the NA server. I cannot believe that he was invited and that he talked BS about the PR event and the game instead of either talking about the cause of the stream - charity for children or just STFU.

That's exactly what they are doing. It's up to us if it will work for them or not.

I have one LM in progress (about 1/3 done so far) and 0 completed. You can imagine how excited I am about this BS from WG.

I'll be honest... I was waiting for the 50% discount in order to buy the 1-year premium, for the first time. After all the BS that WG presented to us (Puerto Rico, terrible PR insulting players, LM locked behind RB etc.) I decided not to do it. There are higher chances of me quitting the game than giving them a single cent.

12 vs 12 for clan battles? ROFLMAO!!! Are you out of your mind? Again? This will be the least engaging Clan Brawl, ever.

@Crysantos, I know you hate me right now but I can assure you that I wouldn't be so annoying if I didn't know WG is the one with server issues. You either can't see that or you refuse to acknowledge it. Look at this, few minutes ago... Watching a stream of Flambass and no issues at all, connection working flawlessly. Then I get disconnected in the middle of the game... The "Waiting for authorization" lasts quite long and I cannot reconnect. But it's me, right? My bloody ISP and bad internet connection, right? How come the rest of the guys in my clan (different ISP/different country) had the same issues at the same time, huh? And guess what, Flmabass got disconnected as well, at the same time... He couldn't reconnect for the next 2 minutes or so. What gives? Still not acknowledging the problems with the server? The servers working flawlessly but all the players complaining have bad connections? Including people from different countries and including CCs as well? Seriously!?? P.S. I got a bonus as well - becoming PINK. Yeah, I didn't manage to reconnect before the battle ended (disconnected me before I even spotted anyone). Thank you very much, looking to get restricted to co-ops battle only, thanks to WG servers. Seem fair, doesn't it @Crysantos EDIT: 5 minutes later... Got disconnected again. All my pals got disconnected again. Flambass got disconnected again. Flambass said (and I quote) "What the F is going with WG servers, I'm getting disconnected every 2nd game" I won't transfer the comments from all players getting disconnected as well because there are many insults (which you do deserve TBH). Now I got another inactivity warning... @Crysantos, please tell me the problems isn't on WG's side. Please. This is simply unbelievable. P.S. Tagging @Sehales as well as he seems to be doing the same work but on the German section of the forum - convincing the players that everyone has problems except WG when in fact we all know who has issues but refuse to acknowledge it.

Didn't see this thread, just the reddit post on another thread... So I'll put the comment here as well. @MrConway @Tanatoy @Crysantos While I agree (to an extent) that a one-year notice seems reasonable it doesn't change the fact that: 1. They designed the LM to be permanent, no time limit 2. They repeated the 'indefinite time for obtaining the LM' for the last few years, including recent occasion from WG staff on the forums 3. While they are giving us a year to finish the missions, you won't be able to get the missions after 0.9.1 patch which is not so far away. So unless you've unlocked all those missions by now, the one-year notice doesn't help much many players, including me 4. All of the above leads to lies, deception and manipulation 5. It might seem 'fair' and 'reasonable' to you as you plan to finish them by the end of 2020. What about the new players? What about the ones that will join in the next months and will get caught in the middle of it? How will they feel when all their progress gets lost, completely? 6. @Sub_Octavian is saying that this change is "a necessary step to evolve this system". What kind of BS is that? Evolving the system in which way? Making it worse for the players and a bit more profitable for WG? That's where you guys see the evolution of WOWs? On a side note... weren't these always called "LEGENDARY MODULES" ? Are you using the "UNIQUE UPGRADES" now just make it more difficult to associate for the ones not following the forums and other things, like it's something not reallt relevant? Just a coincidence? Too many lately, if you ask me. With one-month notice, or 10-years notice... I still consider it BS and not fair to any players that recently joined and for the future players which seems are something WG doesn't care at all (despite all the recruitment features and other useless things they added for that purpose). Seems like they are making the game less and less appealing to any new player and they call it "evolution". It's like they regret making the game F2P. The ones that already have the ships, LMs etc. can consider themselves lucky. The rest will have to go on the path WG designed for them and that path is called "PAY2WIN". There will be less and less features for f2p players and the ones with deep pockets will be able to get anything they want and the latest 'Puerto Rico' is the perfect example of that - now a total noob with 0 battles can jump in, pay 200 euros to WG and have a T10 ship. That's something WG said will never happen and they repeated that proudly for the last few years. What happened? New management? Bosses having financial troubles, besides WG? Legal issues that need to be paid from our pockets? Question that will never be answered but worth throwing them out there.

Well, I'm playing less than planned so I'm still at 0/6 on the 2nd directive. The further plans of WG will probably make me quit so why bother. Obviously they want to make the switch from F2P to P2W and I definitely don't want to be a part of that BS.

Having different lines with different perks is healthy for the game. Having a RN line with basically everything available (improved AP, Smoke, Hydro, Torps) is enough. Adding HE would be too much and adding HE and nerf the AP would get them close to any other line. So thanks but no thanks.

Only this time they obviously don't care about the outrage and according their spreadsheets, if they do all the BS at the same time (worst xmass event ever, impossible PR grind, expensive loot boxes with insanely low chance of any useful drop, announcing the move of LM behind RB etc.) then the $hitstorm will come and go and it will be better then destroying the game slowly. Full ahead comrade, full ahead. Into oblivion.

I have exactly the same problems as many other players I've met in battles have. However, @Crysantos says the issue is with each and every one of us and everything is perfectly fine with their servers and the game optimization. Sounds legit. NOT.

It's like... WG: We're planning to introduce a NTC where you will have to regrind lines in order to have improved ships. Playerbase: FUK NO! WG: Alright, no NTC. There will be a RB and it will be to get better ships (Ohio, Colbert), aimed just for the players who have all (or most of the) ships already Playerbase: That's BS but alright, we'll ignore it. WG: Now we will start moving useful features behind the RB (which we said it's only for the top players) Playerbase: OH BOI, you lying manipulative bastards! WG: If you don't like it, FUK OFF. Playerbase: You can count on it.

You've been mislead, like most of the players. Click on each mission to see the full description and the requirements for completing the missions. The further players go (in directives) the more specific it gets in terms of classes, nations and tiers. They did everything possible to make the grind impossible and also hide the information so that more players think it's actually doable even tho most will fail miserably. Then, when they see they cannot complete the PR in time, a nice "save me" button will appear where you will be able to finish the PR with (A LOT of) doubloons. Classic WG.

So... seems they are forced to offer a refund to all the manipulated players but in return they also revert the whole state of the account so any progress you've made on the directives or anything else... LOST. Another way of WG giving us the middle finger.

The captains logbook is only for the 'premium stuff'. If you pay for it (or rarely obtain it by completing certain missions) you will see it there. Otherwise, according to WG - it's not worth even showing it there.

Just one of a few dozens of threads already existing, even in this same section of the forum.

1. You already opened a thread with the same content. 2. There are dozens of threads related to the issue

And here we go back to the golden tactics from WG staff - keep silent and let the $hitstorm calm down a bit, choose a post with a question which is least important and reply to it few days later... CMs can't be responsible for the $hitshow their bosses are doing and ordering them to feed us with but they are definitely the ones having a choice on how they will inform us, treat us and obviously - ignore us.

You give them MONEY (in shape of doubloons). That's all they ask from you.

Well, if they are so out of mind to make get this BS on the live server and cancel all the progress I did for the last year (yeah, I play casually and take things slowly) then I'm out, WG can continue to milk other players but I'll find something more relaxed so spend my time on. I know some people have all legendary modules and they don't really care but I play casually, as many other players do. Don't we have the right to play the way we want? We don't give a $hit about the stupid RB but if you lock the legendary modules behind it and all our progress goes down the drain then it will be one of the biggest insults to all casual and new players from WG yet.

Seems like they were very quick in updating the Wiki... normally it's outdated for months or more... You could say this was well planned a long time ago... https://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Upgrades#Unique_Upgrades_.28.22Legendary.22_Upgrades.29

I'm pretty sure they have those ideas already. It's heading that way but slowly, to not create a $hitstorm they cannot stop. Seems it's getting obvious in which direction WG and WOWs are going and that's definitely not a direction I want to follow. I'll be happy to switch to a more relaxed game run by some people who are not this greedy and care at least a bit for their players.
