3,370 Terrible_Turtle Members 5,202 posts Report post #1 Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) I kinda feel like a broken record at this point, but thanks are in order once again. Or at the very least a public recognition to WG of how much we appreciate their continuing development of the game. Sure, there are bugs. Sure, sometimes your favorite ship gets nerfed. And, yes, their marketing can be a bit frustrating at times. And, admittedly, Russian ships tend to be a bit OP. BUT... let's put aside all those things and think of what they have done for the GOOD of the game. They've dramatically reduced the frequency of TK'ing. They've obsoleted a host of popular mods by making them standard additions to the game They continue to add new ship lines and release new premium ships. More importantly, they actually CARE about YOU, the COMMUNITY!!! How many times have they responded DIRECTLY to the frustrations or suggestions mentioned on these very forums? Remember the SA outrage? They HEARD you, and they're essentially giving you a free skill reset! Yes, yes.. I know what you're going to say. You're going to say that they don't actually care about the community and they're just in it to make a profit. FALSE... to a degree. The stakeholders and upper level management likely care more about the financial gains, but I'll wager that the developers and minds behind the game itself actually have a passion for making the game great and pleasing their fanbase. So... without further ado, and despite all the gripers and naysayers, WarGaming and all associated members, I must say it again...

964 [PLPT] SergeantHop Members 4,435 posts 6,599 battles Report post #12 Posted July 28, 2016 Yes, they're constantly improving, and they're listening to us, which kinda blows my mind. It's refreshing. There's still plenty to do though. WoWS is far from perfect, and hopefully WG will do well and keep up the good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

458 AspiringCodger Beta Testers 2,029 posts Report post #14 Posted July 28, 2016 Well said. They continue to impress me on a regular basis.
