Shouldn't those that spent XP or free XP on the Minekaze's type 89 torps be compensated for losing them after the patch? Was there anything else that cost you your XP but was removed after the patch too?

I'm going to go with 'no'. Balancing happens, it's a beta, and you didn't have to spend money to get the Type 89s, just time. (Unless you bought doubloons to convert some other ship's XP to free XP to get them, but that was your choice.)

A beta that I put money into so... no.

 

Fine, don't get over it. It's not like the devs care...

The amount of people that see beta tagged on and accept it as a catch all excuse as well as defend it is both hilarious and sad how easy it is for marketing wank to guide the sheeple society.

I put money in my 401K and got screwed there. Can I have that back?

Yes, free XP which did cost $. I paid money for an item, lost it and expect compensation. Just like any other service or product.

You clearly don't know the difference between a financial transaction and a 401K. Or perhaps you're just trolling. I'm certain its the latter.

That torpedoes cost how much xp? Less than 10k? I know that WG won't refund that. If you free xp'd them, that's your problem. If you don't like it, WG thanks you for your business and is so very sorry that you won't be spending more money on their game.

So your crying over a tiny amount of exp lost? Tier 5 mods cost little to nothing, get over it. It seems like you are simply whining just because you want to have something to whine about.

LOL - So true.  Not looking forward to the 3rd quarter report at the end of this month.

No you didn't, you paid money for doubloons. You got them. Transaction complete. Everything after that from using the doubloons to convert XP and then researching the Type 89s was not what you paid money for and WG owes you nothing.

Read the TOS, they can change anything they want at any time and are not liable to refund you for anything.  That given, there's no way you lost more than a few $'s worth of free XP if you used doubloons to convert.  Things change, accept it or move on.

Weren't closed-beta players that spent doubloons compensated after the wipe? Shouldn't that apply to those in the beta as I consider this a partial wipe of paid for inventory? I'm surprised others here don't feel the same or am I the only one in this thread that paid for doubloons?

Probably not going to happen, so let it go.

Sorry.

Absolutely should be compensated...It is considered fraud if you spend money on digital goods and then they remove said goods without fair compensation...

 

I cannot believe people think the OP, or anyone else, should have to suck this up....In WoT if they change something WG has always compensated the player...This should be no different.

 

Put in a support ticket, if they do not compensate you the support ticket is evidence.

You've all forgotten the 4 reverse decision requests per calendar year they offer. If it means so much to the OP let him use 1 of his 4 reversals.

Well then, good thing he spent money on doubloons and not on the Type 89 torps. He got the doubloons. There was no fraud involved.

I do not know what everyone is smoking here. But every single time this has happened in WOT. I have been refunded my XP...

 

 This is OBT, not CBT. This is a soft release regardless of the BETA tags. And the OP is completely in the right in what he posted.

 

He should definately get the XP back for that module.

10K torps were unlocked for free for me on Mustsucka, which I bought yesterday - so isn't that compensation?

 

This is a an awesome point.... that means that his experience has not been lost... absolute fair compensation.

LOL

 

What WoT were you playing?

 

I have lost track of the nerfs and changes in that game that they didn't give us anything for.  What they do give us is an EULA and TOS which specifically states that this is an online game where basically everything is owned by WG and can be changed at any time.

 

WG is pretty good when messing with premiums, but ... wow, they have nerfed many tanks in WoT without compensation.

 

WoT compensated XP changes all the freaking time. ALL THE TIME.

 

WG should've rolled the exp back to players on this one.

 

It's not the end of the world, but the catch it in the 'it beta' excuse is juvenile

If this is true in the OP's situation than case closed..
