I feel exactly the same, spent hundreds last year but I’m less keen to now. it would be interesting if Wargaming saw lower sale numbers since it’s GC announcement. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since WG think it's OK to use their paying customers to test their CV rework then surely they should be paying us as play testers? 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[PEZ] Yedwy Players 11,301 posts 39,586 battles Report post #19 Posted February 15, 2019 If they nerfed concealment its pretty much pointless? I mean t8 us ca that is nearly identical to balti you can have for free (many even have that free permacamo for it that was given away this summer) and in current mm that nearly guarantees t10 match...

CptQanuk Players 492 posts Report post #22 Posted February 15, 2019 Another T8 premium with guaranteed T10 MM, worse than it's tech tree counterpart, with no assurance it won't get "balanced" even more in the future. Since I strongly disagree with the current state of the game and with how WG treats it's customers, I will gladly vote with my wallet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BUT since WG as announced the RETIER of Giulio Cesare I will NOT. Why to risk that in a year WG decides to nerf it?? Sorry until the Giulio Cesare issue will not be clarified I will keep my wallet closed!! this lack of consideration for customer must END! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
