Graff Zeppelin has been removed from the shop

[philjd]

Ok, WG have made a decision - it has been removed from sale for the duration - lets wait to see what they have to say about it.

 

(NA have also removed it, not sure about Asia, presumably yes also)

 

[Zenith]

Quite right too. The ship was a joke, and their response to criticism of it was even worse.

I guess the next steps are to give out automatic blanket refunds and apologise to any CCs they may have upset?

[Bellegar]

Asia has pulled it too

Now that would be spoiling us.

Don't forget the apology the rest of the players deserve for being insulted like this. Markus Schill will have to make another minion write him a nice letter he can put on the portal again

Ha! They'll never give money back, I bet they'll even find a way to blame the consumer for it having to be pulled from the shop. This is WG we're talking about here.

there's a live stream by WG from GC tomorrow IIRC, now that will be very interesting....

Wasn't Saturday the last Gamescom day?

Guys you all are trying to be negative between WG EU vs WG other servers. PLEASE. Read the Portal. They arent doing anything, its some players who take things the different way and create a big scene. GZ Was a Mistake. She was put in the store due to some Communication problems. but tbh those of you who bought it..... Im really questioning what you thought.

READ IT.

Q (Milos__Varak): When you stop favoring the RU server and treat the EU server like a cow, which has only a cash cow?

A: We do not favour the RU server. We treat all servers equally.

Q (Sadzior): Why you discriminating EU players by making better specials on RU server? We had celebration of French Bastille day, American Independence day, Helloween but NOT Russian fleet day. Why can't we all celebrate Russian fleet in other countrys than Russia? Its, after all, a huge peacekeeping force with can nuke us to oblivion with ballistic missiles. You were giving RU players tier 5 battleship Oktiabrskaya revoluciya practically for free when requirements to get tier 2 cruisier (with all already have) Emder was much higher on EU. We are tired of being milk cows payng money when you giving away stuff on RU for free. I will boycott you on gamescom this year.

A: October Revolution will be distributed via an in-game event for free, as well as it being sold, in the foreseeable future. There are certain discrepancies that cause us to move or change events between regions and this was one of those situations. We preferred to wait until the dedicated, new camouflage for the ship was delivered. We try to treat all the regions fairly, to provide as much rewards as each region. We are aware it is not always to your liking, but we do the best to please you, and at the same time keep the entire game going at a good pace and in good health.

Players were not good enough for the ship.

They probably just hand out some vouchers for the overpriced merchandise shop instead. After all, people now own a rare ship that is no longer in the prem shop.

Lol, and you truly believe it was a mistake...amazing.

 

I'm trying to find something WG didn't make a mistake...pretty hard I must say.

 

Soon they will have to put an apology right on the bottom of every announcement they make :P

No mention of Graff Zeppelin there.

 

And no, not trying to be negative towards any other server, just surprised that she has been removed - not every server has the same ships on offer at the same time, that is a frequent enough disparity for it to be confirmed fact.

Ok I dont buy shiet from the shop I admit but Why are you all acting as this is the end? so? GZ Has left your port for a while. she will get better and those who paid for her will receive her without paying again (I guess). Anyway If WoWs team were to give her out for sale again, well, they will lose their player base is all Im saying.

No we are not. We are trying to be negative to all of WG.

Graf Zeppelin was not a mistake. This drama did not happen because some clumsy person pressed the wrong button. There were news articles about it. @Tuccy and @Ev1n announced it in the Gamescom interview. NA and SEA also put it in the shop, even after the statement about a mistake was made and already debunked by @Kandly.

This drama was not a mistake. This was an intentional decision to make players pay 50 euros for an unfinished alpha test ship. They hoped the Gamescom hype would make them get away with it. How wrong they were......

 

And that answer is obviously a blatant lie. They do not treat all servers equally, but we have other threads for that.

Im not mention GZ, There are 2 questions asked based on how WG has treated EU

The game is still young is all im saying. There is an EU team and an RU team. One works faster. THE END

tbh
it's got to the point where i just can't give a crap about this company

The game released September of 2015, that's not really young by video game standards.

And as far as I know - in all of the GZ issues raised, there has been no mention of different treatment across different servers.

 

With respect, you are tilting at windmills there (Don Quixote - seeing a problem where there is none).

Compared to WoT, sure. But WoT has been around since 2011, so hardly surprising. However, 2015 was still nearly 2 years ago, and a lot can be done in 2 years. 

[King_Of_The_Potatoes]

Was GZ actually ever for sale on the Russian servers?
