AngelofAwe, on 12 February 2019 - 08:04 AM, said: Not sure why people complain about and use "kids" as an insult in
this game. (or others)
Young people or "kids" are actually pretty decent at the game and they learn quickly because they want to get better. Kids don't just play to relax. They play to compete with their friends, they have motivation to improve. They care to get better.
To give you a more relatable example, I think all of us have seen a lot more skilled players below the age of 15 than above the age of 45, right? Not just in this game but generally.
My own little brother far surpassed me in WoT by the time he was 13. Granted he played the PS4 version but stats wise he's 3500 overall WN8 on his first and only account and I taught him nothing about how to play.
The people who are truly bad at this game are those who play it for a bit to relax after a long day at work. The people who care neither about any "objective" or about their results in the game.
The middle-aged working people, those are your worst players in the game. In any game.
People with jobs and families who will spend no time outside of the game trying to get better or ask questions. Why would they? They don't have any reason to care.
Those are also the people who fire more gold than anybody else because why not? They can afford it and they don't really know much of any other way.
So when people use "kids" as an insult meaning lack of skill I can only shake my head at them. You're targeting the wrong group.
I guess "working man" doesn't have quite the same insulting tone to it though.
---------------------------------------------------
On the topic, frontline is a lot more fun VERY early in the mornings. I played as soon as it opened both yesterday and today. The first 3 hours of both days have been by far the best.
In fact in about 5 frontline battles this morning I've been hit by a TOTAL of 3 premium shells. Everything else has been standard ammo. Even when I played the VK 100.01P.
As soon as the "normal" people wake up that changes and it becomes pure gold ammo regardless of the tank you're in.
I would assume this again has to do with goals and objectives. People who care enough to wake up early and play a game know what they're after and in frontline that is credits, so they will fire only standard ammo to maximize their gains.
Later in the day the "I don't know what frontline is haha" people join. People who don't know anything about the mode and just play it like they do randoms, aka spam gold.
It's also a fact as far as I've been able to tell from a short use of XVM last month that those playing late at night and early in the mornings are far better stats wise. The average WN8 of a team in tier X at 2-3 am is at least 400 higher than during prime time.
Again, it's probably not "kids" that are excluded from the matchmaking, I know I sneakily sat up playing games at night quite frequently when I belonged to that category.
If you have a job to go to in the morning though... you'll be asleep at night.

realized they have to play 10+ hours every day single day to even
get emil 1951, WG will swoop in and add some bundles into premium
shop where you can either buy the emil for cash, or just buy
prestige levels. Conveniently WG will add these bundles only after
everyone has already wasted countless hours in the mode, buying
premium tanks and premium time 
They will claim they are doing it as a reaction to the
high demand and requests of players to have at least a chance to
buy the tank if they are unable to nolife grind it. Meanwhile WG
already knows they will do this and they already know it because
they planned it this way from the very beginning

eekeeboo: Some serious generalisation going on there! As a 33 year old
who is a perfectionist and always wanting to be good at any game I
play, not all "middle-aged" are bad or worse, it's more down to
personal goals and achievements. You will find those demographics
at any age. You can have smart youngsters as you do elders, just as
you get nasty and unintellgent youths as much as you do older
people. People are people, irrespective of age.

continued reaction from others. If you genuinely feel they're OP, I
suggest you play them and try them out for yourself, I imagine you
would be surprised at the high skill floor of the vehicles. They
are intended to diversify gameplay give scouts more things to do
and break up some stale elements that most really experienced and
high battle players may be experiencing.

eekeeboo: Aslains is popular because it has the all round mods most
people use and it's a safe and trusted installer. XVM is hated by
many for its abuse/misuse as a targeting tool, not a tool to
help yourself identify and improve and look at "better" players to
see how they play better. with alsians in the install
when you launch most mods have a "show description" button and it
will show you what effect it has in-game. 18:43 Added after 2

days 1) It's better to make sure
there are solid proof and non-leading questions for topics like

solid proof, I hope this is understood to be no speculation or

was banned for giving away teammate position to clanmate in a game

1) It's better to make sure

these, especially to prevent any naming and shaming breech of forum
rules (I'm AMAZED not one person reported the OP post). 2) By
solid proof, I hope this is understood to be no speculation or
query, but actual.... here's proof as was submitted and a player
was banned for giving away teammate position to clanmate in a game
etc. This was solid because we could see the person completely
unspotted and out of the way and moved to the other side of the map

sets to prevent any future instances of this. As it stands no
further actions being taken because you need concrete and solid
proof of wrongdoing, not speculation to carry out a punishment.
That being said, we're looking to improve the system for the next

lot of the more extreme +/-2 mm you used to get. The problem is

It would be simple to take the arcade out of the game and not harm
it. Just give players the choice between Arcade and Realism in
the Garage before they click Battle. They tick a box and
only get put into games with players who've ticked the same box and
want to play the same game as them.

base? How many make up your whole player base and are they a
sustainable part of the player base who will spend enough to
maintain the game? Simulator games are a niche market at the best
of times, and even then they have some elements of compromise
because true simulation is simply not engaging enough for most
people. You can see some breaks in this trend with games like
Eurotruck simulator, but if you compare the element of an
actual simulator and how much arcade is in there, you can see just
how much even simulator games don't go too hardcore.
If you take the arcade out of the game, you definitely harm the
game style, play style, and tank/map balance etc. Creating multiple
queues is how you damage your player base and divide it, further
increasing queue time above what you would with other suggestions
to the point you can wait minutes (in the double digits) for a
game. There is a reason the games that have this are nowhere near
the size WoT is, even with the natural decline from the age of the
game, the game is still far bigger than even the closest
competition.

This will be a re-occurring event every week of the month.
The idea of the rental is it allows people to test and
trial, not to play it permanently and just jump ahead, the
expectation is the average new player will not jump up by spending
money and destroy higher tier MM and games (atm this is a minority)
but if you make the rental too cheap and too rewarding, that's what
you will get. That's why the rental prices and rewards are what
they are.

not being in the tech tree was that people would just wait to use
gold and buy it/save up etc and not buy it straight from the shop,
especially with the combined economy with games like WoWP at time
providing an over-lap of gold. The demographics are as
many people as possible, and the numbers and marketing will look at
the money from a premium shop only tank and the tanks sold through
the tech tree and will always try to keep some exclusive tanks or
"rare" offer tanks as those moments to drive revenue, standard
practice with targets and shortfall in any business and to drive
further development.

to assess the effectiveness and allow people to use up their
Christmas crate gold if needed. And while your wallet is
closed, there is a chance that someone else wallet will open. I am
aware of the desire not to spend money on a tank that's bundled
when you already have a bazillion gold and more premium tanks than
you can shake a stick at, the prospect of more gold isn't
appealing. But at the same time, the aim is to sell as much as
possible to as many people as possible. Instead of trying to sell
you more things, when you've already bought the gold, try to make a
package that's appealing to someone else. This is the part where
people misinterpret squeezing for money instead of the goal of
creating offers suitable for other types of players.

the price would be high and it's not fair. The second point is true
and something i highlight in a response to another person, it can
be offputting if you misinterpret the intention, it's not intended
to be a slight but to not constantly get the same people to pay,
businesses don't survive on those strategies. The
giving away of gold has been reduced dramatically over the years,
with nerfed values from clan wars and during events, you will see
WAY less gold being provided as a reward than say 3-5 years
ago. 17:57 Added after 0 minutes

would be unfair to offer a full service for such a huge discount,
even on a temporary basis vs those who have paid and ground. Tier 8
is not a tier you should dive into straight away without learning
the rest of the game, especially with a game mode as complex as
Frontlines. The rental option is there, it could very well not have
