Scout fahren und passiv Scouten ist nun Geschichte!   Sie haben weniger Sichtweite, Ok!    Brauchen sie auch nicht!    Weil sie so schnell am anderen Ende der Karte sind, 90 ° Grad kurven fahren, ohne zu flippen!   Langsame Heavies und Arty´s werden im Cap vom generischen Radpanzer gespottet und getötet, da ist das Spiel keine Minute alt!   Wenn dies die Zukunft von WoT sein soll, dann bin ich hier raus!

As a software eng. (who works in big international company, more than 5k employees in various branches and bilions of profit per year) i can tell you one thing - you don't introduce new changes when product is not stable enough. You don't introduce 4 things at once into complicated system (WoT is really complicated, +2/-2, 10 tiers, 5 classes, it really is impressive system, i really admire you). Anyway, you don't introduce 4 big changes: reusable consumables (yes, they are big change, although people don't realize that) tier 10 lights new artas reworked mm. What one should do (i am telling from my experience and perspective, and according to knowledge that i gained from more experienced people) is to introduce 1 by 1 change and let things settle down. You have to admit that there was huge playerbase drop after 9.18 patch, when things went downhill.
It's not regular playerbase drop but severe one. People went to holidays in summer 2017. and most of them never came back to the game. One can guess why, but you have your own data and you know better, i am just player.
Then, when instability is brought into system that big, you continue to introduce new things that affects balance (ie changing maps). 1.0 patch is nice but some maps were changed without need but let's forget that and pretend it never happened.

What we got with 1.0 is same gameplay (crapfrom time to time), just nicer. Short battle with 15-3, 15-4, 15-5 in best case, that lasts less than 5 minutes. AND YOU TRY TO SPEED UP THE GAME EVEN MORE! YAY, what an irony, when whole forum population is complaining about 15-4 and bad mm (bad mm partially because not enough players on low tiers, many of players have all high tiers they love and enough free xp to jump to tier 7 and 8 instantly). What you do - introduce questionable change into the game which is going to speed the game up even more. 

And of course, let's just mention about powercreep and unnecessary OP tanks we have. I understand people love good and better tanks but does lt 432 needs to have 7 degrees of gun depression with all other stats like those? Does IS-3A needs to have bad gun handling and insane firepower at close range instead of pleasant user experience, nice gun handling and a bit of skill and thinking required?

Admit it or not, this game is changing and for me, it's going 4 steps forwards, 5 backwards (not really 1 forward, 2 backward, it's not that bad) but it really is going downhill. Or it's only me. But keep in mind, those players who left the game are not really going to write on forums why.

Many writings, many issues, but bottom line: 
I really love this game and love this pace of it (not fast like shooters, not too slow either) and i wouldn't like to see it going down the sink. That's it!

Which is not going to happen as this playerbase is going to last for a few years even without newcomers, but gameplay needs to be improved, some small things that make life nicer and easier should be introduced, retarded map pinging, rocks that pull you up, bugged textures, priority from 3-5-7... Only after that when playerbase became bored and happy introduce new issues, there's many things that can go wrong.
