We know how the game works, we have experience what are important tank qualities and what are not. The IS-3 A compared to it's peers is overpowered as overpowered can be, even  a 252U will tremble  in fear when approached by this monstrosity. Just let that fact sink in for a second.

psychobear, on 11 December 2018 - 07:15 PM, said:   I honestly appreciate your willingness to actually communicate, so i'll bite. While i do understand the necessity to move the videos to the video section, those 5-6 threads you've mentioned aren't the best argument for this point, as most of them appeared as a consequence to this thread being unfairly moved from the gameplay section. People perceived this decision as unfair, that's why they kept making threads about it there, to keep it where it rightfully belonged in the first place. In my opinion, each thread should be actually analysed for what it is. So it contains a video. Is it about the video's content - like a good battle or so? Move it to video section. Is it about promoting the channel or stream of it's author? Move it to video section. Is it about promoting some shady content or person? 86 it and hand out a nice fluffy ban. But when it is about nothing of those, but primarily about emphasizing gameplay aspects for discussion, leave it in the damn gameplay section, simply becouse there's where it belongs. As for the sticky threads - that SPG one in particular - the point i was trying to make is this: artillery is one of the most problematic mechanics of this game and it influences gameplay in many and complex ways. There are multiple aspects of it that need to be discussed (that's if you guys at WG really care for feedback), and that can't be done in a single sticky thread, no matter how much you may want it. It's just not possible. Think about how it would be like if you tried to concentrate the whole gameplay section in a single sticky thread. It's just not practical, at all. People will bring different aspects in debate at the same time, discussions will overlap and shortly it will end up in a big pointless clusterfu... errrm... mess. Becouse it's only natural in those circumstances. And that's exactly what's happening in the sticky arty thread. Not very constructive, wouldn't you agree? I know there was/is lots of spam about the topic, but this doesn't justify suppressing proper threads on the matter by simply dumping the whole domain in a sticky. It's like trying to stuff a whale in a coke bottle and then wondering why it doesn't fit. Kinda dumb, if we are to openly admit it. I don't mean to discuss moderation here as i know it's against the rules, but i just want to make an honest and (i hope) constructive suggestion: Let people post constructive threads about arty, let us debate every facet of it in separate threads, it'll only give you proper feedback. You'll say ok, but there will be a lot of spam. Well of course there will, but that's where you guys come in, isn't it? Let constructive debates develop and where you see spam, simply intervene. Delete spam threads/posts. Hand out nice fluffy bans when and where they're needed. But in the mean time be there, in the eye of the storm, collect feedback and show us you're there and really care about it. Last but not least, i really wish i could find that plenty of information and instances where my last sentence in the post you've quoted would prove incorrect. I really do, becouse i love this game too. But so far i can't. Yes, i look to the changes announced to things like prem ammo and MM, but... they're nothing more than vague announcements which in fact say nothing. Not to mention that there's nothing about arty being mentioned in those announcements. You're asking me to believe that you guys at WG really care about our feedback while you do nothing about a problem that's been constantly emphasized by the community since the very beginning of the game? Trust me, it's really hard to believe you under these circumstances.  WG claims they care about player feedback and want happy players, and then off they go making nice graphics, emblems, decals and this kind of things, while players keep pointing out the gameplay is destroyed by bad MM, broken arty, unbalanced tanks, double standard ammo etc. If WG really wants our trust, it's really easy to earn it: fix those things first, and only then worry about cosmetic changes no one asked for. It's really that simple.   Best regards!     Sorry, but i completely disagree on this one. Vehicle discussion forums are for discussing vehicle characteristics. Threads about how arty as a class affects gameplay belong nowhere else but in Gameplay section.


ZlatanArKung, on 11 December 2018 - 07:46 PM, said: Did you actually read the thread with the poll in? Because your idea that that one contains more discussion about the video then this one is simply not true.   The reason moderating is discussed at all was because you moved the thread in the first place. And this thread also contains posts questioning your moderating, unless you removed those posts.   I agree only 1 thread is needed, I don't agree with how you did make it happen.   You get PMs about how many arty threads you lock is really none of my business. It is bad that you get them of course, and it shows you are doing your job.   Your second paragraph: Is gameplay the place for "complaining, shaming and "whining""? Or what? I know this is what a vast majority of threads in this section are about. But is it the aim for you? Or do you have another goal with this section?   I could think that a goal for this section would be to promote good discussions regarding perceived issues with the game like matchmaker. To discuss what constitutes good gameplay (how fast/slow paced should the battles be, for example) etc.     The sad part is that if I wanted any of this "Those subforums are for vehicle discussion and guides and advice etc" While intention is clear, it simply doesn't work. If I want to discuss how arty/HTs/TDs/MTs/LTs or any specific tank currently work within the game (their roles (perceived and actual) strengths and weaknessess, good or bad design etc), I would be forced to post here on gameplay instead of in the vehicle discussion subforum forum if I was interested in getting input more then once/week or something.   I believe there is a lot that could be done to this forum that would be fruitful for the company you represent.

ZlatanArKung, on 11 December 2018 - 05:58 PM, said: I don't care about how many PMs you get about locked arty threads.   Arty threads (like the one pinned) should get moved to vehicle discussion subforum forum. Or, you should remove that subforum all together.  That the pinned arty thread exist in gameplay forum is just a reminder of your moderating inconsistencies. Just like the Panther thread that is here on first page now.   You actions (WGs moderating team as a whole) do lack consistency in what you do in regards to your own rules. Sometimes you enforce that threads here should be about gameplay (this thread got moved after all), but more often then not you do nothing at all (panther thread, Leopard thread that I think is still on 1st page, abbey thread that might still be on first page etc).   Maybe you should reformulate your rules so they are consistent with your own actions.     Why can this video exist here in gameplay forum while the poll-thread you recently moved to videos which contained more or less the same discussion with same arguments can not. The content of either thread is barely any different.   Now we can't only have QB video threads on first page of gameplay, so maybe you could do a little bit of work and create a QB video thread which is pinned (for now) and force all discussion about that matter into that thread and just remove (not move, but remove, erase, delete) any other thread regarding that issue.


fighting_falcon93, on 11 December 2018 - 06:07 PM, said:   To be honest, they should not. First of all, we don't have a "vehicle discussion" subforum. Secondly, the forum I assume you're reffering to is called "in-game vehicles", and if you look closely, it's located under another section called "Game Guides". Discussing the problems and solutions about artillery doesn't belong in a GUIDE section. Not to mention, the structure of that forum is divided into nation specific sub-forums. In which one of these are you going to put nation unspecific artillery threads?   From my perspective, it looks like you're upset about something, but please stop taking it out on the forums. This game might have many problems, but the forum sections are not one of them.

seppc76, on 11 December 2018 - 10:47 AM, said:   Hi Eeekeeboo.   unfortunately i missed you on Warplanes, where the Community is missing you by the looks of it. And i really appreciate your activity.   You know, as an more experienced Player (at least i have a higher battle count) as the "average player" i can't accept the typical explanations. When you look at alle reports when 268 4 came on the server - every experienced player said, this tank is broken OP (btw, same for Defender, and you know what happened).  Apart from all your statistics, the Players playing this game on a higher level can easily and immediately tell you, which tanks are too strong and which one are too weak. Even for me, i think to balance higher Tiers better then they currently are (not playing lower tiers, so ... i have no clue there).  And this goes for many players - the hardest job would be in this case, to find ... lets say 10 ... dedicated good players who are willing to spent their time to help you balancing. Statistics dont say anything about broken tanks, but for the "usual" ones they would quite fast find some good balancing points.   Your Devs are lacking any ... action ... to find a good balancing.   For Example the mentioned Tiger II - its a very old vehicle, and time and changed Metas havent been good for him. It features a very accurate Gun and a good Viewrange, but low Alpha, big Silhoutte and non existent armor. Additionally its very slow for beeing on such a shabby platform. All this you can read in the tank section for at least 2 years (as the Armor Buffing and Russion overbuffing and 3/5/7 Meta started) - and nothing happened. You can be honest to yourself - your Devs don´t give a F about old tank lines (even the russians, look at the IS4 which has issues too for years).   When WG starts listening to his community (at least the contributors, this would be a good start i think) they could have avoided SO MANY Problems caused in the last few month.   Now you are facing the results of this ... arrogance or unability (whatever you say) and the playerbase has declined much more than it should have.   Nonetheless, i wish you all the best, and i hope that at one point they (not you, i think you do) dont only say they listen, but do listen.    


Rati_Festa, on 11 December 2018 - 12:37 PM, said:   It can be done faster and quicker. Just allocate more resource dont waste time on stupid "halloween" events and actual fix the core of the game. Your lead developer should have a list of priorities, I can't think why that crap halloween mode would be the top of anyones list. What develop team allocates resource to that crap when you have 1000s of customers screaming at you the game is unbalanced, have evidence and have consistently raised similar issues. Allocate resources properly.   Its quite interesting your general tone in the way you are answering is that everything is fine, nothing is under scrutiny, WG are doing a great job when it comes to balancing. This kind of feedback just perputates the "we dont give a f**k attitude" that has corroded the communities faith in the decision making. WG as a company don't appear to care and are quite happy to display a general arrogance about it, even when called out on obvious historic and current mistakes. A complete lack of humility.   As you can see from the responses on this thread from your customers, as you can see from the games most popular streamer QB, as you can see from decline in player numbers, its not working, it isn't balanced and you as a company are reaping what you have sowed. ( Dwindling player numbers, lots of p1ssed off customers and a reputation of producing a flawed product and being ignorant to that fact ). Not good at absorbing feedback.   No more lame excuses, balance properly and fix MM asap. ​


trrprrprr, on 11 December 2018 - 12:55 PM, said:   ekeeboo, all sounds nice and dandy. But dudes about incompetence and milking are right. You have dev team that creates tanks(not first year) then you have army of testers....you test them before giving to us?  After all that, where even a blind man can tell you if its OP or just a huge crap...yet you make it in to game as it is.    SO dont tell me that it takes time and what not, if you put in game OP tanks that make you money(free exp) and then you nerf it.  Its been jere from day one and nothing has changed.   Like old WT auf e100, who on earth put it live as it was at the beginning, how unaware team of WG staff has to be to fail to see that?  How blind guys there are if they dont see how they kill every old tier X tank....rarely see any E5/E100/Maus.....but htne you add a 430U with a higher armor than many heavies and all is fine, or you throw in that V4 that just can sheese trough anything.     Dont tell me that it takes many months to fix it as it seems like that process is autogenerated by some glichy program....there is just no way a team ofprofessionals can put in game those fails after all this testing....

VarzA, on 11 December 2018 - 02:52 PM, said: These announcements from companies reminds me of this part in Going Postal (the movie) where the competition decides to 'wow' ppl who use their products by hiring some pretty girls to stand around a model they show to the masses. Right after that they close the R&D budget so they stop losing money on pointless stuff internally. I will believe those MM changes when i can see and feel them with my own eyes, or when i can finally take the AMX CDC out and not be so frustrated at the state it's in, that i want to uninstall the game. I paid for that tank, my own hard earned money ... i didn't rob it, steal it or club someone over the head for it. I paid quite a lot too .... but the tank is near unusable atm, while i keep seeing russian after russian tank being fixed and introduced into the game. What's the message here ?   (for some reason couldn't remove the bold in editing)  Then what's the explanation for the buffs to russian tanks  ? 268 4, 430U (which i will say again, shattered 3 lines that were doing just barely ok E50M, 113 and 121), defender, lt-432, IS-3A (now), t-34-85m and i could go on.   I'll say it again, westerners in general, want to have choices ... and the game is going for a binary choice ... go russian or play with handicap.   Right now, the only thing that keeps me wanting to login and play, is the desire to get more efficient during grinds, and the goal of getting IS-4 (because ppl think it sucks and i find it challenging to grind it), T57 and a few other tanks ... This will keep me busy for another 2-3k games, after that i'm gone. I'm not sure if you can see my history of purchases but i bought some stuff this yr, not a lot but some. X4 foundations will be fixed in 5-6 months also, EVE is calling me back, and there's this new game from the original creators of Fallout that is in space, released next yr.   I love the game, but the problems that it has ... it's getting to be too much.


fabse, on 11 December 2018 - 03:04 PM, said: Here is my take on the matter:
  Wot is a great game that I am enjoying tremendously. If course, I do not agree with some individual design decisions, but overall, the game has only become better over time.   The problem is that this is not perceived as such by a potential new player. Such a player simply overwhelmed by the complexity of this game and the diversity it offers to players. Grinding is a time consuming process which gets worse for a new player who is really bad. To make matters worse, he is forced to play with horrible crews and stock tanks and very little guidance. It is only natural new players quickly drop the game.   My suggestion is simple, goodies for new players, serious goodies: - Start with at least 2 good t8 premium tanks, maybe two or three t6 and t7 premium tanks. Low tier games are totally different from high tier ones. They are chaotic and random and follow no real strategy/meta. New players don't even know the high tier gameplay before they leave the game. - These tanks should be good representatives of their class such that new players can decide which kind of lines they want to start with. - These tanks should have a good crew, maybe 2-3 perks, such that they are actually competitive. - Lower (remove) the cost of several transactions for new players such during a learning period. This period is over after 5000 battles or one year. It should enable a new player to redo crew training (with gold but for free), sell tanks at full price, maybe even undo a research with XP refund. There should not be anything a new player can do wrong and learning by experimenting should be rewarded. - Ideally automate (if wanted) and or guide players through actions such as moving crew, retrain crew etc. - Remove pointless and confusing limitations (Barracks) so that new players can focus on what matters. - ... and much more.


Anymn, on 11 December 2018 - 03:19 PM, said:   The problem is that Wargaming is not transparent and communicating enough. Maybe in Russia that is normal... but here in the EU we love to be informed properly.  This results in less trust in Wargaming of the players.   Another thing: begin this year we were promised that WG would rework the gold ammo shooting. We haven't got any update on that so far, however every other day there is another '*** gold ammo'-topic on the forum. Maybe you could start replying to those topics: 'We hear you, we are currently reworking them. Our progress is [...insert progress here...] and we are planning to launch it at [...date...]'  


TheDayWeDie, on 11 December 2018 - 03:28 PM, said:   Well, I work in a company with probably more costumers than Wargaming EU.   Even if I don't like "passionate" feedbacks I understood in time that a "passionate feedback" is more preferred than no feedback at all.   There is always a difference between what I think it is good for costumers and what costumers think it is good for them. Of course, I can not please all the costumers, but at least I try to do my best.   As long as the costumers know that I do my best, from their POV things are quite ok even if they are not perfect,   The worst case is when the costumers feel that I don't care about their feedback. All in all, I guess this is all about now and here, with or without QB's video.
