  1. Problems with companies are generally at the top. The employees surely don’t want to kill their own job. The top gets too greedy, or bored with the game and want to cash out and move on to the next big thing.

    • WG problem is they dont have many competitor beside gaijin,they both basically oligopoly in the industry. WG know most of playerbase loves naval battle so is unlikely they changed games .because like first point there not much MMO mechanical warfare genre also with wows being hard to learn. imagine they made FPS genre and create this kind of decision when they think the world revolves around them

    • Good way to put it. We as players tend to point fingers at the developers, but it’s always those at the top making it rough for those who are trying to make a living. The video game industry is notorious for low pay, toxic work environment, and greed at the top. Look at EA as they are a prime example.

    • Wojciech Dubrownik

      Completely agree. From my understanding, game dev is one of the most competitive (and one of the worst) computer science jobs. Devs obviously love games and even if they wanted to leave, they’d probably prefer to leave the game in a good state.

      But they have to make new things.
      And the community wants them to make new things. But the community doesn’t want things that are too different from existing things. But the community also doesn’t want things that are too similar to existing things. And the community wants them to make exciting things. But the community doesn’t want new things too gimmicky. Also the community wants WG to make things like they used to be. But without the issues that used to exist. But also newer and better.

      Currently the community explodes at any of these words: CV, subs, Russian, rework, planes. How TF are you supposed to have a discussion anywhere, when half of the posts on those topics are: “WTF WG”, “What are they smoking”, “obviously retarded”, “cancer” and the people that want to have a discussion are dismissed as “mindless drones” and laughed at. I’m not surprised WG doesn’t want to engage with the community outside controlled environment.

    • @Wojciech Dubrownik Well said my guy.

  2. I’m not frustrated with bad changes. These can be fixed. What I’m getting frustrated about is trying to cash in on players. The whole “create a problem, sell a solution”. And it’s not only with this game. I would be so much more inclined to give this company money if their product was good., contrary to “give money to stop being frustrated”. More like a reward for developer and not buying myself a way to enjoy a game.

    • As long as there are new players and whales they will always be able to cash in on players.

    • thats the latent ‘dead-end’ embeded in any ‘free to play’ game, their only income is taxed from cash purchase of in game ships, the skin sales are not really that much to go by in the sense that not much ppl like to color their ship into a clown car. so to extract income, this way is very much an eventuality.

    • @Boon Warframe is actually a free to play game which doesnt really has this problem at least back when i played it.

  3. The game has had it’s run… now it’s the ugly time at the end. Just let it go. It happens to everything.

    • not really they just that bad. i mean CSGO is far longer than wows and is FPS genre where she compete with other games with same genre but the games still do well, because valve know how make money without need to force is player.and better balancing system. rank in CS work based on performance meanwhile Wows treated everyone rank is the same doesnt matter you played well as long you win you gonna rank up fast even tho you didnt do shit. wows already run for 5 year and the game doesnt even have proper reward system ffs!

    • I agree WG has done everything it can to destroy it

    • @Gilang ferrial not to mention it take them this long to add daily login reward

    • When I played World of Warships at the beginning of 2020 I was like “wow this is a bit more balanced and better than WoT. I hope it doesn’t become a game like WoT” and now it is actually in this place. Sad to see that, I really liked the game and now it is just shit

  4. I bet the RU server will be pissed and then the rework will hit – hard.

  5. Im just sad how quickly the game got so much worse from when i started. Like I dont mind them testing stuff out, but blatantly ignoring the players feedback, procedding to do said thing we did not want and refusing to backtrack to fix the issue they created by not listening in the first place is what rubs me the wrong way.

    I dont mind companies trying to sell stuff and make profit, but god take care of your players and they’ll want to spend money over the long haul rather then short term.

    • @Vinzenz Geske Its likely operations were not making profit or even just costing money so they removed them fully. Not many people play that.

      League of Legends did the same thing, they cut gamemodes that werent played much.

      Game devs decide by themselves. They take all the feedback and decide what THEY want while looking at the feedback but they never listen to the feedback. If feedback says CVs are op, they either confirm amongst themselves or refuse it. When you have a looot of feedback, you just pick and choose what you believe.

    • @Jan Mitiska You just release tons of ships. Which is what they do. Like League of Legends: they just release tons of champions. Then they rework shit to shake the meta a bit. League of Legends rose to the top by not listening to players.

      CCs are just there to show the content to players. WG does not value them more than any player… And like League of Legends, they dont care what the players say.

      STs arent there to give feedback, they are there to create prerelease data.

    • CynicallyObnoxious

      @Jan Mitiska Actually every change has been made for the older players and sub average players CV rework, Over pen mechanic etc. League balances for the upper group of players and WOWS should have been doing that from the start.

  6. david and martine albon

    T10 russian CV has smolensk guns as secondaries if anyone is interested

  7. “Alpha potential could be insane” ohhh sweet sweet summer child.

  8. imagine they announce Italian CVs with SAP rockets…………….

  9. I’m a pretty casual player that had a blast playing the game, spent some money behind it too. I only played brawler battleships with no real care to play anything else (or time). That being said, I have no real desire to play anymore with the way the game is now.

    • I feel your pain. Grinded to GK finally last autumn, bought premium camo for it (driving costs were insane), only for it to get killed by WG few months later due to secondary nerfs…

    • @Jan Mitiska Yup, the GK is my only Tier 10 ship, and any time I decide to take it out, the enemy flame thrower ships get all giddy.

  10. you know what it means … french CV will out balanced russian CV just like their glorious gunboat are better than russians

  11. Powering Manipulation

    I feel that it is fair to say that the dev’s and playerbase are frustrated but the lack of balance and the paper ships aren’t the only reason why. The fact of the matter is wg did this to themselves and it probably isn’t the dev’s fault. When we get disasters like Puerto Rico and the Christmas crate shortlist, that burns any good will the community has with the company/dev’s. The community doesn’t have goodwill for the dev’s so whenever the dev’s change something or add something the community now assumes that wg is trying to screw them over or ruin the game. To top it all off the changes are almost always tested by cc’s and on the test servers but even then when cc’s and the community say “hey this is a bad idea” or “this isn’t balanced it needs changed” wg just goes and throws it on the live servers anyway. Then to no ones surprise the community gets pissed and wg goes into full damage control mode. It’s an endless cycle of wg have an idea, implementing it horribly, ignoring feedback that it’s broken, and releasing it anyway. No wonder people don’t wanna play anymore. Of course you now have a disgruntled upset playerbase that isn’t willing to give you the benefit of the doubt because you ignore their advice/warnings and stabbed them in the back by lying to them and trying to cheat them. Then wg is left with dev’s who lose motivation or become frustrated because everytime they try to add something or do something the community shits on it immediately. The dev’s stop listening to feedback, stop caring, and the game just dies.

    • aka toxic corporation dysfunction – the update schedule reigns supreme.

    • @Jan Mitiska can confirm as a new player, my only satisfaction is Yamato dev strikes now, even if it rinses my credits due to 167k deduction per game

  12. Italians built an aircraft carrier to but they nerver finished it

  13. “Is WG crazy?” Maybe. Are they out of touch with the player base? Yes. I think you’d be hard pushed to find players who genuinely wanted more aircraft in the game.

  14. As a player since open beta it actually hurts to see how badly the game has deteriorated. To me the golden age was around 2016 to 2018, before CV rework (and CV culling), OP Russian ships (I.e. Smolensk, Petro etc.) and the explosion of paper premiums instead of actually bringing out historical legends. Other questionable practices like selling an overpriced Puerto Rico and loot boxes with Makrovs rigged in it certainly did not help. The final nail for me would be subs, once its out I can see myself playing less and less until I finally uninstall because I haven’t touched the game in 6 months.

    • I haven’t played nearly as long but I would agree with you.
      I just bought a new PC and even after laughing about Star Citizen for years, I gave it a try and it changed my mind. So wonders do happen. But I won’t hold my breath on WoWs.

    • Same thinking here – after subs arrive, many many players will stop because subs will not match into the game.

  15. Problem with the way WG do business is pretty shady, the way they have run this game the last few years means I’ll never start another WG title, they have lost me as a paying customer and also as a future customer. Gj WG.

  16. Stopped playing this game 6 weeks ago and my life has improved dramatically. If anyone is thinking about quitting, dont let your overall investment in the game get in the way. If WoWS is going in a direction that you are not happy with, might as well put the game down.

  17. Lefteris Meleneklis

    No one:
    Literaly no one:
    War Gaming: MORE CVS BOYYYYYYZ

  18. This is so true. I started playing CVs out of spite and because I wanted to be ”the sky cancer”. After like 10 games it got soooooo boring no matter how obnoxious I was being towards the enemy team.

  19. Olaf Messchendorp

    I have to disagree on this one. There is a group of players that do like them. That’s one of the reasons you see so much carrier games. I like playing cv as well.

  20. And the fact that was said before Russian CVs were announced

  21. Illegal Opinions

    The game died a while ago. The corpse is just hitting the floor

  22. Except objects are mostly built and tested with actual historical blueprints. Projects are just shits they made up mostly

  23. This. I find CV play BORING. The exception is Ise, I actually like her hybrid style a lot!

  24. someone, i guess

    @Alarium There was a proposed conversion of the Francesco caracciolo into a CV which got cancelled because the regia marina was broke, or at least i think that was why, then there was a conversion of an ocean liner called roma, but the CV was named Aquila and the last one was a CVL called sparviero which was a conversation of the sister ship of the transatlantic Roma, sparviero ended up getting captured by the Germans and sunk as a method to block the port of genoa and Aquila was bombed and burned by the allies and she ended up getting scuttled by the Italian resistance to avoid capture by the Germans i think one of the things setting these carriers apart from others were the variant of the Re.2001 which was fitted with 600kg (1327lb) torps they were planned for

  25. @someone, i guess yes i know but wg likes to add fantasy ships instead off real italian cv’s
