Why do I keep letting you hurt me? You say you love me and burn me everytime.
WG: We will have ranked battles tomorrow.
Players: We logged in and determined that was a lie. (WG then announces it is cancelled because it would be 90% fun instead of 100% meanwhile you damn well know they are redesigning it to be 60% fun. Because Russia)
We lick our wounds…
WG: We will compensate you.
Players: (60 days later, being incredibly patient in my mind. Me being one of them asking) What and when do you think this will happen.
WG: Essentially being pretty awfully and surprisingly rude tells us to 'Go #@%# yourselves'. This one still surprises me to be quite honest. Important point to raise. WG has STILL not fully committed to giving us nothing and has just not answered. Instead of a messy update let's just simply ignore the players and let them figure it out on their own. At one point a WG employee actually told us this had been answered. After extensive searching this proved to be a lie.
WG:
Ranked battles clearly shown on NA server between Frontline and Halloween. I just checked the schedule and it is not listed. No further announcement. Which at this point virtually guarantees we will not see it this month.
I hear War Thunder and just about every other online game has solo competitive play. I could probably grind out 7-8 Tier 10s in Warthunder and play ranked before I will ever get to play on NA server.
Perhaps I am wrong but I think it is to the point it is our own fault for believing them and I can no longer blame WG for the heartache of never seeing ranked again but myself for believing we will.
