234 Carrier_Junyo Members 738 posts 6,483 battles Report post #1 Posted March 26, 2016 I'll keep this simple. I see WAY to much complaining on these forums. There is a difference between constructive criticism to help improve a game that we all love and hold dear, and useless damaging negative complaints that get people lost in an ocean of negativity. I am part of the constructive criticism. I think it is healthy and required for anything to improve and grow. But I'm starting this thread to remind us why we are all here. I for one, can quite easily say, that World of Warships is currently my absolute favorite game of all time. I got the game at about Launch, last year, and I've never been more addicted to a game ever. With all it's "flaws" that we all seem to keep pointing out on a daily basis, World of Warships is the "Command and Conquer" of Naval Combat games IMHO. It's graphics are phenomenal, the ship models and environment are a beauty, the gameplay makes you feel like you are in a big lumbering 30,000 ton battleship firing 15km away at another ship. The ballistics and game mechanics are just amazing. So, I for one, would like to take this opportunity to thank Wargaming Developers for their success in this game. I do hope that the player's feedback is taken into consideration moving forward, in order to make this game even better. Personally, I cant wait for the upcoming weather that is planned to be added to the game. Just another element of realism and immersion into the environment. Keep up the great work, and thank you for making this game for us! Lord of Storms 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They do care, but it's simple business economy to favor a server that regularly hosts 15 to 25 thousand players at peak periods then one that limps along with 5 to 15 thousand. The US market for PC games is highly saturated with a lot of competition for players attention. We have to realize the fact that until this game reaches at least World of Tanks, or Fallout 4 levels of players, we are only going to get a fraction of their attention. [edit] +1 to the OP.

Very true. And beyond just the code is the whole complexity issue. Where even a small change to fix something innocuous over here, can end up crashing something all the way over on the other end of the system. Complexity itself adds orders of magnitude of difficulty. Now add on the playerbase. The most insidious virus ever created. It will find any weakness. Any small gap in your logic and they either crash the game or exploit it for fun and profit. Managing all that can get out of hand pretty quickly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can agree, 1 tiny change in the code could ruin everything, as my Teacher likes to say "Computers are picky little things, one mess up leads to the entire thing not working properly, if at all", And truly, sometimes it must feel like you must work against your own very playerbase, to close up exploits, and bugs, to prevent the game from being ruined, especially in MMO's, and online games. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

3 Jedi_Master_Kyle_Katarn Alpha Tester 31 posts 1,452 battles Report post #12 Posted March 27, 2016 I personally believe that for a FREE 2 PLAY MMO game, Wargaming puts a ton of work into Wows. The details on the ships themselves alone are amazing, especially because some ships they say they only got blueprints to work off of, no real life photos to work with. Thats like asking someone to read your mind exactly and draw every single detail of what you are thinking 100% accuratlly on paper and then try to make it 3D.

Not to mention the actual process of modelling it, that takes time and effort,from a whole dedicated team to both add in details, develop the textures, make sure it actually looks decent game, and doesn't cause issue with animation (AA guns, and turrets rotating for ex) Edited March 27, 2016 by Imperium_Titan_Roma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is nonsense. Everyone knows that the RU player base is larger than the NA playerbase but it isn't any extra work to provide the NA server with the same things the Russian server receives. It costs no extra to put the same ships in our premium shop as they put in the Russian premium shop. It isn't like they have to do everything twice. Just have the NA monkey press the same shiney candy shaped button on our server that the RU monkey pressed on the RU server. It isn't that big a deal. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Programming is one thing. Passing notes through the iron curtain is another. Where is the difficulty in sending patch notes to everyone at the same time? For frak sakes! They speak english! Why does EU (english) and NA have two different sets of patch notes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The chicken or the egg? A better game will attract more players. Or More player will mean more attention from the dev team. I am camp 1, improve the game and many players who try it will stay. The player count will go up. Not Camp 2, do as little as possible and hope players come, is not working out well. I Fundamentally disagree with the idea that WG is ignoring NA because do not gave the player base. The other regions just have better teams running them.
