New Ships Missing From Community Sites

[Abandon_Ship]

I'm sure this has been requested before, but can we please get all these new ships added to the API so that 3rd party community sites (such as wows-numbers) can track people's games?  We must be missing like 20 ships by now, it's getting ridiculous.

Unfortunately the WG WoWs API is not updated for way way way too long...

WG don't want you to know who is and isn't a potato. Just keep on giving money to WG and have fun in their sand box (random mode).

On the up-side, it seems that nobody can see on WOWS Numbers if I'm the sort of cat-shaving psychopath who might - purely hypothetically, you understand - have played a few games in submarines in Coop mode...

Last time I asked, Seraphice said there was no plans to work on the API, nothing on the horizon.

There seems to be an alternative way that however needs quite a bit of work for the programmers of databases. Also they are not sure whether WG likes that approach.

The preferred way would be for WG to rework the public API. But WG still questions that many players are affected by this, so they don't see the immediate benefit for their business.

I can see your shaved pussycat from the moon, sir. Just checking the official profile, I can see our 31 games with submarines in coop.

Now just wait for the next stage: endpoints closure.

I always consider 3rd party support to be a bonus, but not mandatory. It also puzzles me why one would want to know about "peoples games" outside of whats provided by Wargaming. And no, you wanting to know who is "a potato" is not enough of a reason.

 

If it were up to me I´d put a stop to such external shenaningans simply because I consider them unneccessary. But thats just my personal take. Carry on.

C'mon, updating API is at best few hours of work for someone, who knows what he's doing.
