How long can the rot continue?

I seem to experience a continuous decline in player quality, especially over the past few months. It has reached a level that it seems many teams don't even try to win a battle. And if they do, I really can't tell from the madness of their actions.

I know that we regulars have been complaining about this for years, but imo it has reached levels of insanity now. 

So. What's next? I really don't enjoy the game much anymore. Many posters here have been saying the same. Meanwhile, WG keeps raping the game like there is no tomorrow. Maybe that's just it, they farm it for the last ounce of cash and the game, after much maltreatment, is finally dying. Too bad, there is still so much potential left if WG would just do an honest try to promote game quality and experience.

 

Well, that's it. I mourn for a game that was fun and had potential. Brutally murdered by it's owners. :Smile_sad:

Until the bottom falls out and the ship sinks?

Sadly there seem to be enough players who want a brain dead campy game to keep WG pumping out paper fantasy ships for a while yet.

I agree. Up till a month or 2 ago, i felt that i kinda want to play the game, because i like what the game is about. But i didnt like where it was going. And then the crap keeps piling up, and now they announced airstrikes for Cruisers :cap_fainting: Basicly since then, i had not more drive to play the game. Its completely gone. I havent played randoms in a month, and in the last 2 ranked sprints i played like 10 games or so (this sprint i only played 3 games...). And a few days of CBs in the last 2 weeks aswell.

I was almost playing yesterday when i got asked for division, but then the game had to update so i dodged the bullet right there :Smile_trollface:

 

I guess im just done with it. Grinding stuff is only so much fun, if the ship you get you wont play because randoms are just horrible. Why grind steel if i get a TX ship, when TX is just a bunch of horseshit? And everything which was fun, WG ruined over the years. And the biggest issue is, that Cruisers are just absolutely useless and little fun to play. I always enjoyed Cruisers the most, but they are unplayable in ranked (atleast in Bronze). You are at the complete mercy for of your BBs and DDs, and we all know how that goes. And why play them in randoms either? You have 5 or 6 BBs looking at you like a Lion eyeballing a piece of meat. CV is permaspotting and probably even attacking you because you are an easy snack if you dare to move closer. If you move closer, you get spotted by up to 5 DDs, because hey, you are only one of two or the lone Cruiser!

lower tiers(T5/6) used to be fun but every game is infested by sealclubbers these days, see my screenshot above. so its the same lopsided crap as T10

This image tells us exactly nothing. You had one good player, they had two.

ah, you see, theres a flaw in your logic there, it doesnt matter how many good players you have, its how much trash you get and there my team clearly wins.

no clue about their own product ...

It is like they secretly want to create a whole different game but can't, venting their frustration by shoving weird stuff into this one :Smile_amazed:

The f... is wrong with these developers?

No pride in their product.

The indigenous British car manufacturing industry died in the 1970's because the unions could not be bothered to contribute to decent products. First they were decimated by Japanese, German and French imports and now they build foreign cars in foreign owned companies. 

Lack of seriousness has a price.

They had some vodka and went playing Guitar Hero.
They had fun and decided Ships need some of that action.

We can all pretty much guarantee that this won't be an ingame Quality of life addition 


No, this will come with a price tag, say... A perk on a new premium ship? or a module?
