Hello warriors,
as you probably well know, World of Warplanes turned out to be one huge failure. On Russian server, the number of players online was around 30k - but ever since, it has dropped to roughly 4-6k. A couple of players therefore decided to make a petition to the Wargaming CEO, Viktor Kisly - they want him to "save the game". The players complain that the game becomes worse and worse each patch, FPS drops more and more and the game looks terrible. The are also complaining about the wonky plane physics. The solution they propose is to fire the incompetent development team and to fix the bugs in the game. Oddly enough, they also demand the moderators to be investigated (and fired) for "incompetence". Considering Wargaming practically already pulled the plug on this project, there is very little chance that this petition will change anything. Still, if you want to participate, the link is here:
Petition.
In soviet russia even the Customer fires you.
ReplyDeleteAt least WoWS will be good.. Not like this total crap...
ReplyDeleteNo. Looks a complete bore to me. I predict another failure once the inital hype has worn off.
DeleteNot as good as WoT, doesn't mean it's a straight failure.
DeleteWOWs is complete shit.

DeleteWoWs is the same cash grab WoWp is more or less, its not really bringing anything truly new to the franchise [albeit the rts element is novel - but people will get very tired of aircraft torpedoing the ships]. Over all though it seems very much like WoT on water, so once the hype dies down people will begin to see its more or less the same game and get bored.
DeleteDid you even play the game? Or you just salty? I was playing WoWP in the +/- same beta stage as WoWS is now and I can tell you with all honesty that the planes were so shit compared to the current WoWs beta status... Go and find me a good ship MMO "simulator" out there... There is NON! WoWP was already lost due to shit dev decissions and the fact the WT planes were running strong for a good year already. I have 200 games in WoWS and it is imo quite fun and already almost launch ready even in its CBT. Torpedos need a rebalance (again), but remember WoT during launch? It was so unbalanced and nowhere neat WoWS now...
DeleteI agree , wows will be fail
ReplyDeleteI won't play it until they have fixed the aimbot issue.
DeleteIn my opinion, the right decision would be to ban all Mods from WoWs.
Ppl said the same about WoT.
Delete...well, some good news for WoT players: U can get free T5 premium Chi nu kai, this weekend (4th eu anniversary...)
ReplyDeleteI alredy have it
DeleteI alredy have it
DeleteCould you link plz?
DeleteURL or it didnt happen :D
DeleteDid you not say that the dev team was ALREADY changed?
ReplyDeleteAs in fired and a new one was hired and changes would eventually happen?
I am confused now...
The new team is retarded too
DeleteI seem to remember Silent Stalker reporting on WG's grand plans to revamp WoWP? Were they scrapped?
ReplyDeleteWoWS is good for the first 50 battles or so, than it got extremely boring, its really repetitive.Sail Aim Shoot. Repeat
ReplyDeleteI have Beta Test so I know... So It won't last that long, I could never see Clan Wars on it or anything, WarGaming should stick to tanks.
Where's the option to vote for canning the game so more focus can be put on WoT.
ReplyDeleteShips and Planes are a total borefest compared to the tanks. Starts with novelty value then gets old real fast.
I lost interest in the game since they announced there will not be submarines !!! (I knew by then that the game will boring) no dynamic gameplay to be expected.
ReplyDeleteStrategy decisions will be limited and luck will be the deciding factor in most of the games.
You think people complain bitterly and often about being one shot killed by invisible artillery apropos of nothing in WoT? Submarines would be the same in WoWS. They are invisible. Almost impossible to retaliate against. And they can sneak up on a ship and fire torpedoes at close range.
DeletePeople initially thought aircraft carriers were going to be WoWS version of artillery. Based on what I've seen on Youtube, that's not accurate. Yes, the aircraft carriers hang out in the back, but that is what they do in RL. It is up to the type of aircraft and the skill of the pilots, and the skill of the AA crews and OpFor aircraft, to do the real battling. I don't imagine being one-sortie killed by an aircraft carrier being very common.
You are just a clueless troll. Submarines would be insanely OP and cant fit it the gameplay in any form. If you would have atleast the slightest idea about submarines and ships in general you would know that most battleships dont have any mines or protection against them and in real life were counting on the support from destroyers and cruisers with protection.
Deletesave the game? lol... better burn it with fire. (And the next time, when 99 proc of players in closed beta says that controls are bad, maybe try to fix it.)
ReplyDelete"The solution they propose is to fire the incompetent development team and to fix the bugs in the game"
ReplyDeletedidn't SilentStalker [SS] post on FTR that it already happened and that a new team was hired from another company (there are companies who do "freelance" programing, like the ones they used to make the first batches of HD tanks) or chosen from the main office?
"Wargaming practically already pulled the plug on this project, there is very little chance that this petition will change anything"
I think SS also posted that WG top directors met with this new team, who was first tasked with finding WoWp major issues, and recieved a report on what to try to do to save the game and that this new team would do that even though it was given them low priority for this task
I think SS posted this info as a part of his "insider" posts an there you can find a big list with the major issues the game has and also what this new team thought should be changed to fix the game
I at least know that one of the problems they mentioned was:
----it feels like most of the time you are chasing a curser on the screen isntead of controlling a plane
and also
----there's no difference between ground attack gameplay and fighter gameplay, in the sense that you can't see the differences between classes
Concerning your first point, yes that was announced somewhere. Unfortunately, it may be too late.
DeleteThis happens when you try to copy a "well known and popular game" and it ends in disaster. Another reason why WG should NOT copy AW or any if its elements and implement in WOT. It will turn out like WT:GF and WOWP.
ReplyDeleteI cant wait to see this shi(p/t) sink.
ReplyDeleteIts not just the worst flying game i came across in 20 years,
but one of the overall worst games i can think of.
There are plenty better ones (some free) out there...
so i would not waste time on it (< dev / player alike)
But this petition shows a good point, that at least 10% of the playerbase is ... simple minded.
And a petition towards Wargaming? Just laughable.
Main problem of WoWS is the same as WoWP. Sooner or later you realize that virtually on every map you end up doing same thing - in WoWS figthing in same 2 dimension water surface with and island here and there and in the WoWP - it's 3 dimension with different colour background below. There's no cover no use of different terrain like WoT. Game becomes boring when you realize that on each map you do same things, because the game is limited by it's dimensions.
ReplyDeleteYou can basically say that about WoT as well, so I'm not sure why that would be an argument. An pretty much every map in WoT, the majority of the players do the exact same thing, hide behind the same rock and go the same direction.
DeleteAnd to think of all the possibilities...
Lets see what WG will do if real competitors will arrive. WoWp has been constantly losing against Warthunder, Ground Forces left sadly the way of fast tanking. But now we will see Dreadnaught and then Armored Warfare and they seem to be better than the other games. Wait and see
ReplyDeleteWG should not even be trying to replicate AW or WT:GF because WOT is succesfull beeing WOT not something else. How succesfull was the "historical battles" in WOT? As far as I see it both WT and AW are copying wot in many instances because WOT is epic, WOT is life! <3.
ReplyDeleteWOT need to be WOT nothing else. AW and WT:GF can sack me big time, they are just copycats anyways. But hey have much less players.
i wouldnt call warthunder a copycat of world of tanks. i personally call it world of tanks realism. where each tank can perform to their actual performance. where a kv-2 with 152mm gun is actually one shotting other tanks without hitting its tracks and doing only 200 damage.
Deletewot frustrates me more and more, especially with all those nerfs against tank destroyers. it makes me sad that wargaming is ruining the game more and more. but until armored warfare comes out, there is hardly a replacement for it.

Wow you're so right, WT GF is copying so much from WoT. Just look at it. There is a sky in the game and even water! 100% copy from WoT confirmed and and there are tanks that have armor and can move. Must be a copy, also tanks can die when they fall in water and there are also physics! And WW2 tanks + a mm! Such copy much wow. Ps reading WT GF is a copy cat made me laugh :D
Deletei liked wowp when it was in EU open beta. now you'd better hand me a long stick
ReplyDeleteWoWP should be allowed to die it's death with Dignity.
ReplyDeleteOkay that's over . Remember to wash your hands, Flush twice, seat down, turn the lights off but leave the fan on. Maybe spray some air freshener in there too. Thanks.
