Or, how to turn the easiest of wins into a massive debacle, WG style.

  1. 2nd comment. They totally messed up.

  2. “Maybe the managers will actually listen to them” – X to doubt.

    The whole project was weird. The closest Canada ever had to battleships was a deal to pay for two Queen Elizabeth class BBs, but that fell through when the costs became apparent.
    Why didn’t they base something on HMCS Quebec, a Fiji class, or HMCS Ontario which was the rechristened HMS Minotaur (53)?
    The whole thing was stupid before it even started.

    Regardless, good video Jedi. Always look forward to your take.

    • They used a battleship because wg wanted to use a battleship for canada day.

    • IIRC the review by LWM did mention proposing one of the Fiji’s, but the Canadian ships had a slightly different look than the one currently in game, and WG had not made any of their 3D model staff available for this project (presumably because this was supposed to be simple and fast project, that could be ready in time for Canada Day 2020). Hence, a simple reskin of an existing ship was chosen instead.

  4. Good video. Thx phj

    Talking to friends about this and loved the comment that LWM is on Jingles level of love by the community 🙂 (Ok some of you may not like Jingles but you have to admit the general feeling there 🙂 )

  6. Business as usual at WG

  7. Jedi, you are really quite good at this game
    I enjoy watching you play
    Wish you would stream now and then, even for an hour or so

  8. LittleWhiteMouse is the entire systems QA and documentation department that Lesta just never has bothered with. And also a helpful, charming and humorous person. I’m sure individuals at Lesta/WG didn’t want this humiliating debacle to happen, but it’s almost more condemning that it happened anyway. I don’t think management will listen, the root of the problem surely *is* the management.
