Few hours ago it was 200+

 

And you wouldn't be able to keep your common sense for long with such amount of vodka vapors

Reminds me of that BUG that got rapidly fixed that allowed Broadside BBs to be citadel'd... good times...

 

WG don't fix what ain't broke!

Well, It is WG doing something unnecessary once again after all...It's bound to get some attention.

 

Remember the "oh so requested" merging of division chat and ready buttons?

shite... I shouldnt vote on this while half asleep... only saw old mechanic - new mechanic, and promptly clicked the wrong one like the idiot that I am... should've been another vote for keeping it as it currently works, not like it used to work

LoL. Me too

WG, trying to fix what isn't broken, since ... forever.

I want to thank you all for coming here and letting us know your opinion and feedback on the upcoming change, it shows what an awesome and passionate community we have!

 

No problem. I voted, though I still don't understand why I had to in the first place. Who in your company thought it was a problem to begin with, and more importantly, why? And that's ignoring the fact if the current mechanism is a bug or not - there's more important bugs to fix imho, lock-on one would be a good start.

785 now  . And do not fix the "bug" pls. It is one of the best changes recently and probably for a foreseeable future also.

[dersoda]

one of the best things added to the game last year and you telling me it's a bug? Are you kidding me? What are you smoking?

[ApesTogetherStronK]

93.2% currently in favour of keeping current mechanic at almost 1200 votes. Let's also not forget that this was not touted as a bug at all by Wargaming staff until the change was announced, and has been in game for quite a long time now. 

 

Wargaming would have to be insane to push through this change when the absolute overwhelming opinion is against it.

Actually, I'd be slightly surprised if they pull back for the 8.0 since there's so little time - if I were them, I would be afraid of breaking something by changing it now, the patch should be long ready to deploy right now. The best outcome I expect would be a "quick fix" bringing the "bug" back in a week of time.

Lol i thought it was  the best Change in 2018 now it was a BUG.  Silly me

Well the patch is already downloading but it could be hotfixed very easily shortly thereafter

Yeah, I expect something like:

 

"Alright, we hear you, we bring it back asap. But the patch is already there so you have to bear with it a few days."

 

And then days of agony until a hotfix of 20 MB comes to bring the "Bug" back.

[Reniwn]

Please don't make this change. I think changing it removes an important ascept of the game. I'd like the current version to stay.

[LastKaiser]

I pretty much never post on the forums ... but I'll make an exception to vote for this. This "bug" was a terrific change that added to the tactical complexity of the game.

I imagine we're in for quite a lot of mini-updates over the next few patches as they work out the new CV balance. So hopefully it's the perfect time for a petition of sorts to succeed. I do hope the other servers are raising hell about it too, and that it doesn't get lost in the (probable) storm of CV-related tears, salt and butthurt.

 

I will definitely be giving feedback on this on the 'current update' section of the forum and any surveys I get asked to fill in, to make sure it stays on the devs' radar

Pretty sure this is my first response on the forums, but it's a total head-desk from me. This doesn't serve to do anything other than further encourage players to stay camping behind islands and doing nothing of good all game. Looks like the good old officially-approved "Time till debuff ends" mod will make its way back onto my client

[wilkatis_LV]

Why does the fun stuff happen right when I’m on a vacation? 

 

Even if I’m actually kind-of neutral on this one I think the numbers speak for themselves

 

Also “we’ll talk about it and then let you know tomorrow” - isn’t that a bit late seeing how that’s already when NA and RU get the patch?

[HNRDecado]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an issue so one sided in the game before, if that doesn’t tell you to keep this mechanic I don’t know what will 

 

anyway it’s not a bug it’s an unintentional feature

[The_Shungite_Wizard]

the debuff has been in the game for while now, you have balanced ships around it...... why remove it? 

there are some massive changes in 0.8 already and your taking away a quality of life?

i always try to look at the positives, there are many "i hope"

out of every change / patch this is causing the biggest riot 

why not think hey the entire player base enjoys this, were leave it in and fix the lock on bug instead?
