Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do. ... It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. ... A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business.

You are so correct, but then again ask yourself when has WOW been realistic about rewarding players for anything? They do however expect you to pay for just about everything, and then some. They seriously need to work on the business model, they are driving players away not only from the test server but also from the regular random battles. I have been complaining about their reward structure for years. Instead of improvements we get more dilution, and more "EXPLPLOTATION", I'm not not harsh at all. Ask yourself even if you owned 200 ships, you would think any business would reward customer loyalty. I got a flag, with no added value whatsoever it's all cosmetic. It also looks like emblem for 200 ship owners their graphics department must have had a day off, it is so embarrassing what a dismal emblem. Christmas containers, a total ripoff. It goes on and on, we have choices obviously not to play the game and go to [edited]. At least their graphics are kick [edited], the sea looks like the sea and not an ice skating ring like war of WOW. Sorry for the diatribe but you try to be loyal and you get it up the Whazoo. Earth to WOW is there anyone out there with ears>

End of Battle music should at least change. It's been the same for years. But I think Wargames will only change it if the community pays for it.

This camo offers the same bonuses as the standard camo (which only costs 5000 doubloons.) Any value you place over that is purely aesthetic. Correct perhaps not pay to win let me correct my comment. Purely aesthetic. My question then would be is it ethical? Irrespective of your comment" You don't have to bid". I know that as well. The greater issue I would add is the overall treatment of the overall "Community". In terms of rewards. Maybe you can elaborate more, since I'm not political, but I did want to hear from the player base.

Worcester Sharks: Eagles Camo 7000 doubloons Minimum bid: My God, I said to myself makes you wonder if it's not time for World Of Warships, and Wargames to study a bit their business model. I have never seen such a blatant attempt to to pay to win. Profit, for any corporation is encouraged, companies are in business to make a decent profit. However outright manipulation and wholesale exploitation of an entire community should not be a part of a business model for any Corporation. Paying a fair price for goods and services is something all of us day to in our daily lives. But I ask you the player base of you feel paying 7000 doubloons as a minimum bid is a fair for a camo? I started thinking so as not to be cynical I own about 204 ships, I paid what I would consider a fair price in year 2, and year 3 of Wargames. Suddenly price of ships went to $77.00 U.S for a destroyer. I doubt if I will ever buy another ship ever again. I asked myself what has Wargaming given me in terms of reward for being a loyal member of the Community? I cannot think of anything in terms of gratitude for the player base ever given by Wargaming to the Community. Christmas containers that was a fiasco. July 4th auction a travesty. 8000 Doubloons for Moskva special camo. Something is rotten in the state of Denmark. Sorrry for my venting I'm just frustrated at the level of greed without gratitude. What do you say am I just totally wrong? Let me know.

Notser; Best Wishes to you and your SO. It's a bad time for everyone due to Covid. Best Wishes nevertheless.Hang in there!!

TI think they tip the scale as well. I have the worst record inall of WOW for sure. I guess my nature is too aggressive. I think if you're vocal your selected with extra thumbs on the scale. I believe that. I'll let you know if this coimment tipped the scale "again against me".

I would agree with USSIowa Sailor; It seems it is apparent that the WG business model is more Pay to Win. All you have to do is concur by looking at the price of premium ships lately. To then find out theat they have nurdfed the ship is adding insult to injury. However the player base continues to accept this with no concerted outcry. Maybe now is the time to save the game from structured "greed". By the way do you ever notice the REWARDS OFFERED BY WG; it's really insulting. Perhaps they are learning to give back to those who have made them very wealthy. Look at the bottom line if 5000 players bought the Alaska. Need I say anything else. Granted they need to make profit. However they should be realistic and avoid the icebergs in dark waters.

Same here I have been watching the clip for over 10 minutes cannot get "into}" the game.
