First and formost people who sound like WG employees hiding behind Reddit nicknames please keep walking.
My perspective is that I was finally ready to go on Global Map and join the Big Boys compete for a tank. I wanted to go as a reservist but actually got into a clan and started recruiting after that was done started organizing people for the 2 detachments. Becoming a recruitment office in the process.
- This is not a problem that came unanounced at the time of cancellation this issue was A WEEK OLD. This is a problem that happens every time a big event is due to go online. There is not excuse for cancelling a MAJOR event that was PROMOTED as much as this one ONE DAY before event start. In case of Russia less than a day before.
- I am not an expert and this is just my opinion. First day of the problem ALL of the reserves in IT should have been mobilized simply because Halloween Event has been Cancelled Because WG hyped this is the 10 year anniversary year for the project Because Dusk of Industry was hyped as the of all the Global Map events that came before.
- This is a slap in the face to your BEST audience most loyal most supportive(donating) fans. Because all of the casuals and tomatoes couldn't care less about this. This is the event for people who strive to play every day and play to win with results to show for it.
- Saying no compensation after the amazing response from the community during Holiday Event is even more ridiculous. For a week before ACTIVE Clans couldn't play skrimishes and strongholds without being lagged or disconnected. Same problem was happening in Tournaments where people were wasting time tryin to get to first place. Least WG can do is add a bit more tanks to the event or something to show appreciation for people sticking around FOR A MONTH.
- The real AVID FANS in the croud actually took VACATIONS to pariticipate in the event 100% of the time! This is not the audience you want to ignore and dump on.
- This situation is fine for a struggling company with a struggling game. Not for a HUGE SUCESSFULL WG. You knew this one coming and all you could do is let people know ONE DAY in advance DISGRACEFUL!
- The amount of work that went to trash from Clan Commander and Field Commanders is ridiculous. This takes weeks to organize. Finding people. Setting Up Detachments. Making tables according to peoples Schedules and Position.
To sum up WORST WAY to start your anniversary year and treat your players like you don't care.
