Special: Warming Up for The Grand Finals

One of my primary objectives in this game was to get a VK72. That's already almost impossible cuz of how limited the reward tanks are in CW's, last campaign I put in maximum time in a good very competent clan, played & won games every single night of the campaign, didn't get close to a tank (while the socials in the top clans only had to play a couple of games over the entire campaign to get, yet another, reward tank). All these missions giving socials more & more crew XP just makes me ever getting there increasingly impossible. By next campaign, if I bothered, I'm going to be competing against players with vastly more crew skills than me, just cuz their social and have had all these advantages through 2015. WG really are making it impossible for less social people to be involved in this game. And it's not like what they're doing is helping people to become more social in game, since all this pressure started with PM's in Jan I've dropped out of my Clan and gone backwards. They're not making the game more social, they're making it socially harder.   Edit - also, if you think I'm in a massive minority for not being so social in this multi-player game, look at this feedback poll WG did on the WOT's NA forum. Not insignificant numbers of participants. An entire third of those that took part are exclusively solo players who refuse to toon, only one other third are non tooners who are open to conversion. Are WG really intending to terminally disadvantage and so ultimately lose that exclusively non tooning third of their customers, cuz that's what their current approach will achieve in the long run.   http://forum.worldof...st__560#topmost
