Hey Capn_Nugget and other Captains,
This video by Zoup has outlined many concerns that he has and some of the community has as well. I will be the first to say that we do listen to the community and we do want what is best for World of Warships. We understand that there have been some shifts recently in the game and the game will keep shifting/evolving. When it comes to fixing bugs/ui/glitches and anything related that is a completely different team than our modeling team. Both of these teams are hard at work trying to make World of Warships a better experience. Just like any job they have a queue of tasks that they are working on with differing levels of priority.
When it comes to "gimmicky" ships or consumables, this is a F2P game, so releasing content is important and it has to stay on a certain cadence to provide you the players with new content. Does the majority of it new ships outside of new lines need to be tier X, that I am not sure on but the game has been out for a few years now and a lot of you have reached the "endgame" which is high tiers. New lines and new ships take time to model, take time to test and then to figure out the best way to implement into the game. There are some ships that are currently being tested that are seen as OP and the developers understand that they are not where they want them yet. That is why these ships are in testing and will continue being in testing until they get to a point of being ready to release. That time is not necessarily guaranteed either, look at Leone and VU, ships that were tested months ago and still have not been released. The Developer's Blog is a great place to see new changes and ships.
Another concern brought up by Zoup was the lack of new maps and modes. We recently released Greece and there is another map in the Developer's Blog right now. When it comes to new modes, we are always looking at new ways to add modes to the game.
We appreciate the video Zoup made and the feedback that you have provided. In the end we want to do what is best for you the player and World of Warships as a whole.
