For FLAK sake!! where are those freakin Birthday Party Invitations??? LOL! Happy birthday and thanks for the sales. You too Stona ;)
Cool, I might spend the little money that I have left from last week's Steam Sale.
lol the server is dead again gaijin ?? so I lost a couple of hours to grind for germany rank V to get my hands on the mighty Maus. Arghhhhh !!!
How about assuring your infrastructure is working? Paying, not being able to play, no compensation. Staring at Processing Operation for 3 days straight, Operation Timed out etc. You don't seem to be in a rush to fix that are you Gaijin, as long as people keep swiping their credit cards. How about and idea here which other developers use, get reliable service up and running, your raking in more then enough cash to afford it easily, it's sad that 9 years later, you still can't have 90% uptime.
Can you just not? For ONE DAY. It's really a shame to see people contantly attacking the developers of this game. Gaijin definitely has a handful of flaws, but it's gotten to a point where it doesn't even look like you want to play the game. Don't play if you don't want to. I enjoy War Thunder a ton and so do a lot of other people. And on the point of operation timed out; I only experienced it for a couple hours max, not three full days. Probably something on ur end.
GigaPangolin, would be great if they did something to stop top tier AB being half people with 1 vehicle only. Leading to games where you're left with half your team. And its conspicuously always one team... like one team was forced to lose.. like the game only lets you win 50%...
Been bad at this game since 2016 and it's an honor
love the idea of the sekrit documents emoji. Very amusing
Happy birthday war thunder :)
After all it is you, our loyal warriors, who are the protagonists of this game... Thanks Gaijin, Happy Birthday WT.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SNAIL!!!
