Let's try to keep the convo. about shit over on WG's forums under one room. Not trying to at all discourage it since we all have history there..just trying to tidy the joint up a bit. Cheers.

Honestly; the forum situation pales in comparison with my irritation regarding the lack of any real communication or feedback other than "we acknowledge and will pass on your concerns" and the sheer absence of any kind of information revolving around new releases until days before they come out. Be it premiums, maps, lines or features for that matter. It comes across rather like lip service more than any genuine understanding. Don't get me wrong I love the game and have not devoted this much time to a single game in years but still. It's a bit irritating. Is Rai's cheerleader act wearing you down? (it has worn me down so much I can't watch WG Twitch streams!!) I agree and have not seen any real responses from WG on any real issues on the junior forum. Am I the only one who thought the Xbox's anniversary was a bit shit? see below \/ the disappointment would have been epic if I expected anything.... I have just accepted the fact that WG doesn't give 2 shits about Xbox.... and they probably won't until the 360 and many of its players are gone. Am I the only one who thought the Xbox's anniversary was a bit shit? A bit shit? It was shitter that when Mr Shit won last years Shitty Contest in Shittsville, by beating Mrs Shittest who was the year before's winner.

I think it's already too late Folkish, some of the more dedicated players have stopped spending money on the game already.

I think it's already too late Folkish, some of the more dedicated players have stopped spending money on the game already. Ive stopped game is fucking boring now I think I'll be perma banned from the other forums soon if I keep trying to get them to bite. My latest msg I sent to Nyx after he/she threatened me with a ban might even be enough. I sent "Typical WG, as soon as something comes up that's not praising them they're nowhere to be seen, no wonder you've lost the respect of lots of forumers. It may seem like a "temper tantrum" to you, but when I'm putting my money into a game and I start to see it sliding, I want answers to basic questions that I think I have a right to know before I carry on putting money in. Maybe if you lot showed the forumers some respect and not ignore genuine concerns then maybe you wouldn't have such a problem with people making such threads as I have. What am I supposed to do when he ignores me, get you lot to "pass it on"?"

I stopped spending real money on the game a very long time ago. I drop like 5 bucks every few months just to unequip equipment and change crew skills. It takes a few months to burn through that gold.

I'm the same now, used to spend quite a lot. actually remember the last time I put money in£100 free amazon voucher for switching broadband months ago, got prem time on sale. Down to my last 30 gold and not grinding anything in particular. Might be a long time yet, if I ever put anymore £ in

This is from Nyx.
He is the Director of the development studio. He isn't obligated to come to the forums at all, we are lucky to have him available as much as he is able to be. You won't find the executive director of most games on the forums interacting directly with customers at all. Demanding that he pay attention to you right here right now is not appropriate. He isn't deliberately ignoring anyone - it isn't his job to answer questions one on one with folks. When he does have time, he tries to make himself as available as possible. Demanding that he specifically talk to you directly doesn't magically free up more time in his day to answer one on one questions. About 40,000 people visited these forums in the past week - if all of them wanted to talk to him directly, that would be physically impossible. The forums got about 5000 posts yesterday. WG staff tries to read and answer as many posts/questions as possible, but again it would be physically impossible to see and answer all of them. If you have specific questions, or feedback that you would like passed along, you can certainly ask any admin to pass it along, or you can send a support ticket. Those are the feedback channels that are available to everyone all of the time. When you send feedback in these ways, the development studio WILL see it - but they may not act on it. Or it may be something that they are already working on that they are not ready to discuss yet. If you would like, you can add me to any of your existing unanswered PM's and I will ensure that he is aware of the feedback and questions. We do appreciate your passion for the game, and we want to hear what you have to say.

I basically replied that it's obvious he doesn't listen to the players looking at the current state of the game and forums, then I went on to say that I'm not going to bother any of them with "hard" questions anymore and I'll tow the line like the puppets they want. And I finished off saying that I wasn't sure what had happened in the background recently but the forums have been totally ruin and a lot of respect that I had for them has been lost (too be fair that's not much), and that I hope they think what they've done was worth it.
Too be fair though, I was off my face on pain killers when I sent that.

I stopped spending real money on the game a very long time ago. I drop like 5 bucks every few months just to unequip equipment and change crew skills. It takes a few months to burn through that gold. I used to spend loads on the game, converting all free XP and buying Prem time monthly, and that's not including all the Prem tanks I own. Now I've spent nothing since that 360 days of Prem was on offer for £30, and the only reason I got the Type 59 was because I'd said I'd be getting it from day one and it was a good deal. I don't think I'll even get the T34-88 now if they sold it again. I won't even get gold to dismount equipment, I'll just play a few extra games in my Type 59 and make the money back that way.

imhidingshh Sounds like a rather curt response you got there. Fuck em, it they want to pretend everything is ok with the game and treat the smallest bit of info like a fucking state secret then they can crack on. WG are so low on my estimations that I could only be surprised by what they doI just feel sorry for people like Lady O and RaiBot for the shit they get because the higher ups are being bellends. The Division is out next month so I'll probably play about 3 games a week of WoT until personal missions come in, if they come in.

Can imagine an Ian Bell / Project Cars meltdown happening in the background I wouldnt actually be surprised if PAIN doesn't even work there anymore and they're just trying to cover it up. Maybe they should get someone new in charge to freshen it up? Fuck knows PAIN has turned it into a bore fest at the moment.
