Developer Bulletin for Update 0.10.0

[Maris_Piper]

Why don't you just take these stupid, half baked moronic idea's  that no one asked for or really wants and insert them where the sun doesn't ing shine and leave the Bl**dy Vodka alone.FGS

[Murqy]

So many hours played just to have Elite Captains, and now everything wasted and back to grind (or converting cap exp with resources). It just feels like a big FU to everything I've been trying to accomplish over the years. I've paid for ships, and made sure I have the right captains to go with them. Now WG comes and takes all that hard work away.

 

My advice: Dont give this smug and greedy company a single £, € or $ EVER again.  Never have I seen this form of contempt from a game developer towards their fans and playerbase.

[Catslave]

Oh well. I'll see myself out of this "discussion" .... WG has never given a f* about it's customer base nor any feedback given. The only thing anyone has ever gotten out of commenting or giving feedback was a ban.

 

 

Sooner or later they will run out of "new players" willing to spent any money on this bull*, most likely because they will have to pad every match with bots.

Seeing how WG has failed to produce anything noteworthy apart from World of Tanks and Warships and how they gain an "impressive reputation" that might also be the end for them ... though i doubt i will be around to see it happen ....

Its just so sad, because they really got a nice game with interesting mechanics and a historical touch to it. Too bad they are not playing it themselves and not even the least curious to talk to their playerbase and find out what is good, and what needs fixing and tweaking. So much wasted potential, I could only imagine how fun this game would be if WG actually gave a ******

Wow Wargaming, you got a way of killing any interest in the game. I won't give detailed feedback on these captain skills as I dislike most of them for reasons stated more than once throughout the vocal community. But I can give you some broad feedback on the whole process (this will be polemical, but I lost most of my patience with WG and their communication to us players):

• You are devaluating all 19 point captains and elite captain XP built up in the past. What a disgusting move towards all your veteran players that invested a lot of time (and often money) into the game. But I'm aware this is intentional since they already payed up and now it's up to a new generation of whales to pay your bills.
• You nerf a good amount of premium ships by removing essential skills for them. I'm of course talking about the supercruisers. The reason given in the latest devblog is a lot of crap and you know it - supercruiser armor means nothing since it doesn't provide any threshholds against most penetration and overmatch barriers. The fires on top will just kill them since they aren't stealthy enough to play around them in an effective way. But I guess you manouvred yourself into this corner by selling T9 premiums and making good money out of them, sadly you have this annoying (for you) "we don't nerf premiums" policy in place. (And think of all the people who bought Puerto Rico for god knows how much money - they must feel bad now, eh?)
• You have the audacity to make us pay for commander retraining directly after introducing a captain skill rework nobody asked for. Amazing. I remember that when that happened last time, we had a whole patch of resetting commanders for free. Seriously? I'd really like a comment on this by one of the WG spoke persons. How dare you to make us pay to get around something you decided to bring on us? @Crysantos @MrConway Why wouldn't you make it free? People have to try these skills out and it's frankly outrageous to treat us this way.

Overall this is just horrible and I haven't felt this bad about upcoming changes since the NTC. But I guess this isn't generating enough of a shitstorm to make WG move. And I'm aware I'm not the kind of player WG is interested in having in the game (only paying small amounts of money, highly critical of their business practices) but it still feels bad to lose a game that was part of my life for four years.

one big remark besides others: one month for free reskill  is too short, not everyone can play everyday and test the builds. At least update wiki with captain skills for each ships or let free reskill for 3 months to properly test it. Otherwise it`s very ugly! especially after Satan crates.

Well @cononel_duce WG wont do that because it means that they have to loose money to let us do that. It easier to let us pay for their faliure you know

" ·        Commanders who don't have the maximum number of skill points will additionally bring you Elite Commander XP in the amount of 5% of the Commander XP gained. "

 

We should have a new signal (economic one) at least to boost this^ a little just what like "papa-papa" does with FXP tbh.

WG?

Release this patch and i am done with your game and your company

[Twoedge]

If they want to do this for upcoming submarines, why not keep this skilltree and add the new skills to be used by all shiptypes.

Not the equal skills of course.

Then players with manual secondary can take that , and a player that want the secondary to fire at both sides can take the new secondary skill. 

But  not both at the same time. 

 

[powerverde]

Ty for a new thing that no one asked for.

[Aigars]

.....wg you are just doing everything in power to drive away a player base as well... i'm disappointed in you wg 

[Srle_Vigilante]

Every patch we stray further from god...

 

And no matter how much the community cries, begs and leaves feedback, you will still implement it because you wasted resources on developing it and you don't want to to go to waste.

Always been like this and always will be apparently.

You're missing the fact that one of the main reasons for the rework is to devalue captain XP. It was too easy to get (once you had elite captains) and with it you could circumvent paying for retrainings and skill re-sets... meaning no money coming to WG. Of course they needed to do something about it

Doubling the amount needed to have a full captain with the same build (the 2 points are usually eaten by must-have skills you had before and still are going to have in new system, just costing more) with paid-for re-skilling even in the period right after release sounds almost optimal

Now that is Highly Dissappointing.

So the Feature to Remove old Captains to get a Share of their Exp into Elite Exp was just a Hoax and in the End its just another Feature to Milk Money....

 

Lately every Single thing seems to be about Monetization unfortunately.

You guys really need to Reconsider your behavior there.

Nobody is Questioning that you guys want to Earn Money. Thats what a Company does.

 

But you guys have been going Money, Money, Money, Money, Money, Money, Money -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> Customer

And thats not how it works.

Money is something you get in Exchange for Providing an Enjoyable Game Experience to the Customers.

But lately it seems your going more into the way of Demanding Money for not making the Game unenjoyable instead.

 

 

I wont ask you to not Demand Money for the Game or not Sell Stuff for the Game. But if Players cant Play this Game without Running into Paywalls at every Opportunity then you are not doing your Job properly.

Fair and Honest Warning on my Part. And Yes I am Arrogant enough to do this.

A Games Playerbase is like a Long Piece of Metal. Once you got it in Place you can Bend it Pretty far before it Starts Cracking. But if you go to far and actually end up Cracking it. You wont be able to get it back in Place without 3 times the Effort it took Cracking it.

Just my 2 Cents.

 

TLDR. Maybe stop Working on ever New Ways to Milk Money from the Players and Instead Focus on Improving the Game so more People use the already Existing Ways to Give you Money.

Because there is PLENTY already.....

And why did you expect it would be free? Already the first announcement in the dev blog listed the same prices/rates

Who knows. Maybe I just hoped WG would have some Basic Human Decency and not Jump at yet another Method of Milking Money instead of making actual Improvements to the Game that give Players a Reason to Spend more Money onto the Existing Features.

 

 

[Contrador]

Since WG doesnt care about the feedback, i dont have to be constructive. Since WG treat me as an idiot since 2012, i dont have to be civil.

 

So here you go WG, i wasted few min. of my life to write here: FCK you WG, and choke on all that money.

 WoT has got a level of complexity into the economy and $*** that it's not interesting to get into it despite the other good mechanics and departments of the game. WoWs s taking the same way : don't worry about it...

 

The WoWs skills system works well now for the 4 ship class we have, but not for the submarines gameplay. We can't blame in this game department, developers to try to innovate... 

 

However, if WG could keep 19 points captain skills and revamp it's new approach with 19 points : that'd be something possible. Once again, if WG economic stats improve with new potato players, be sure they don't care about what we've been writing here.

Well some one has written why not just add some new ones without changing the old ones that works fine. I dont mind them trying to be innovating but when it is only one line that benefits from it i am against it
