No play so they have to pay for the servers and staff but dont give them money. It will hurt more.

Yes please tell them here that you and the 19 other people on this forum will forever close their wallets now. It's not like this has been told a lot in the past yet. 

 

I wonder how many wallets you guys close and have yet to close

so sad that the naval aspect of war thunder is such a sh*tshow - but im still going to play that more often instead of giving these haughty arrogant tyrants so much attention. 

 

too bad too, was looking forward to the secondaries rework

Every player counts.

I'm one of those guys who has spent hundeds of EUR for this game during the last couple of years. (Why? Because I can)

 

But not anymore.

 

Because I suddenly don't like the game? No!

Because WG's behaviour stinks.

jingles said it best:
'we are not the majority of the player base, most simply want to log in, pew pew some ships and leave.' (something like that)

 

still doesnt change the fact that im disgusted by wedgie and will never spend a penny again. pretty sure not many people are doing this in the name of trying to get through to wedgie or discipline them through doing this (and if you think you are, your delusional).

 

what the op is getting at methinks is simply to spread this not to influence wedgie or the unthinking after-work brain-shutoff people who want to pewpew, but more as a signal to the rest of the innernetz to (amoung other things) create a warning sign to other companies - and the best way to do that is to meme the sh*t our of this.

 

this post isnt about showing wedgie how far gone they are, its not about wanting to change wows or its future - its about pointing at this aboslute disaster and and screaming 'hhhheeeeeerrrreee! loooooooookkk!' (as the great doug stanhope would put it)

Well Jingles might not be on point here. The financial results for WoWS EU are catastrophic. Since early 2020, their revenue is dropping constantly. They let go half the staff and changed the location of the office to reduce costs.

So they might think subs will bring fresh blood ready to spend the money they need, but i think they are delusional.

Most of the pew pew players are NOT the heavy spenders in most of the f2p games. Yes they are a source of income, but apparently, judging by the data, it is far from enough.

WG seems to think that the model of getting new players constantly is fine. It was fine the first years, but nowadays i'm not so sure anymore.

Because this 'activism' is a flacid sausage with marginal results and zero impact ^^

Then by all means play :D Don't pay for stuff you don't want to pay for, play what you want to play. The only thing you need to be aware of is that you are the product being sold if you do. Which is fine if you don't mind. I uninstalled becasue I think the developer and publisher are trash, and actually think the game stinks atmo which is my main reason. No fun to be had for me. Just keeping things real ^^

Not paying but playing actually consumes WG resources while not giving them a red cent in return. That's... what I call a very Russian Win-Win! :cap_haloween:

Yep, this is exactly what I intend to do (and have been doing for around a year). Costing them to maintain servers, but not giving anything back in return. Good deal for me. 

Well at least until I get a permaban for asking PayPal chargebacks :Smile_trollface:

Simply put, server costs are most likely marginal compared to their revenue or even other spendings like wages. What you will do by playing is support the game and it's developer. That is perfectly fine.  But stop kidding yourselves. Seriously. Play to your hearts content, but stop pushing this weird 'drain their resources' myth. Not paying them is great if that is what you want. But you are actually helping WG by playing the game even as f2p. You are a major part of the product they sell.
