Game was quite nice - it's not anymore.

Game WAS quite nice.. I played it for over 5 years. Last year submarines were introduced. in the planning stage I was actually positive/neutral to the idea... but after the implementation details became clear this game has become a mess of epic proportions (for some classes more than others). CV + sub is a nasty mix and the way it works now (it doesn't!) its time to waste time on something that actually is fun.

Totally rigged game

Totally rigged game, match making and AI decide the victories, personal skill count less than 20%, this game are made to let people develope gambling dependency, take away from childs (and all the rest). It have a good graphic and it's not a free2play, it's pay2win and pay2progress even if they say no. In steam the reviews are manipulated and forums are censored, many complainers get banned and they writings cleaned from that board, that make of this game a big scam for gamers. Nobody will help you with the generated frustration from this game, as wargaming even Valve want only monetize their product, they'll not protect gamers sanity and safety, stay aware of it, don't being scammed.

Protect the gaming community

Very bad expierence.Protect your time and your money.Is amazing in matchmaking they put to play a 7 year player and a newbie of a month.And with the expience of mine after 7 years they are trying to manipulate the wins of any player participating at this game.In other words do not spend money at first and time for this trash game.In reality they had a good idea developing this project of game.But they can not handle it.They think that you are no brain person and they can do all these things that i described over.My final opinion is that they do not respect you when they are doing these acts.Sometimes they are involved in the game result.Example:a bb on broadside shoots to a very weak armor cruiser.You can not sunk it.Is obvious that they are making tricks(cheap)to manipulate the game in the direction of the result that they want to.Finally STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME DO NOT EVEN THINK TO INSTALL IT AT YOUR PC.I hope i help the other players not to fall at this trap.Many thanks for your time to read my opinion.Thanks

Do not waste your money, please read!!

I have started from the bottom over the last 6 months. Starting with tier 1-5 with consistency of getting my ass beat over and over and over again. This is where the game goes from being free to costing money! I think its bs that a top tier ship cost $75 to $100 plus dollars. But it also gets frustrating when you take that new $100 ship and get whooped on over and over again. The red team wins no matter what. in the last week i bet ive won maybe 10 out of 100 matches MAYBE !! While dealing little damage compared to the same tiered ship taking a third to half my ships health. This isnt because im positioned to take that sort of damage its just the way it plays out no matter where or what im doing with my ship. But dont get me started on the supreme accuracy that the red team has either. Not matter rutter speed or shift speed they never miss. You cant juke their shells but they can juke yours. i probably spent $500 on this game and its complete trash. I dont want to play it and i wish i could get my money back. DONT DO WHAT I DID !!!!!!! spending money on better ships means absolutely nothing and wont get you anywhere in the game. So steer clear of this bs game becuase they have no problem taking your money while you loose almost every single match. The bonuses are BS, The Rewards are Bs, Getting Signals is Bs the whole game is BS.. Its all about the money so save yours trust me!

Don't even bother

Don't even bother, save yourself a lot of grief, over a 2-year period I spent over $1K on this scam. So, spending won't fix this garbage. Stay clear.

Awful greedy lowlife developers

This game is such a grind you have to spend hours and hour for little reward,

If you want premium which you basiclay need or the game will give you nothing in terms of credits or rewards , you're looking at £100 for a year. Can you believe that?

A premium ship will cost you £30 each , yes one shop costs £30

This game could be fantastic yet its turned into something disgusting by greedy Game developers

Also the developers are in Belarus ,so your money probably goes into supporting Russia

Great

game for reds teams only.

last two months carried on with but to no avail. loss after loss after loss. white teams wiped out with only 2 to 4 red ships sunk. how can all red team ships shells hit every time taking half ship away. white team shells hardly make a dent. like for like ship, white ship does little damage, however red team ship every shell hits taking half ship with them. each game game ends up the result white team wiped out only 2 to 4 red ships sunk. and it is not players at fault it's the game.

I’ve been playing this game for years

I’ve been playing this game for years. It is all about the money even though they like to say it’s free. It might be free to play, but you will eventually get tired of getting beat up on by better ships. So you will eventually dig into your pockets and that’s where it starts. The thing is that the ships might get you the upper hand in some cases, but it’s the player’s experience level that get you ahead and that’s where the real problem lies. The matches are so poorly assembled, it only takes the ship into consideration when building teams and puts zero effort into taking the players in account. They like to make excuses, like it would take too long to start a game. But it would take no longer then matching ships. How do you know this is a factor? I have hundreds of screenshots before and after the match has begun and each time it ended up as advertised. Usually you can see the experience level of the players on both sides. Which do you think will win? A team made up of all experienced players or a team made up of new players? You might not think this a big deal, but I promise you, you will get frustrated match after match. Sometimes all day you will continue to get pummeled no matter how good you are, you cannot survive by yourself. Do not waste you time or money on this game. Zero effort is put into correcting the matches.

This game has got so bad with slow motion gameplay - it take 3 seconds for the game to react after touching the screen . I just finished a game and got ( Battle Honours) but I didn’t receive the reward. I contacted the Help page and they say take a ( Screenshot). Really, after the fact you don’t give out my hard earned rewards you want a bloody screenshot. Sort out your IT. This game has gone to the Dogs.

Unfortunately this game is bad and worseing over time.

Unfortunately, this game is turning into more of a steamy pile of doodoo every day. They are given all the feedback in the world and are disabling comments left right and center and are just forcing their own ways down peoples throats.

Clearly people don't like it. Corporate incompetence at its finest.

As many people say the game is a sham

As many people say the game is a sham.

1. The gambling mechanics are EVERYWHERE.. it's just sick.
2. Everything is extremely expensive... you could buy some triple AA games instead of buying one ship, you could get a new GPU instead of a couple of ships.
3. The matchmaking is total garbage. There are days that you lose 9/10 matches, and there is nothing you can do about it. It's just that your team will make it imposible match after match. There are certain days that i've played 15 matches and lost 14, and others that I played 10 and won all of them, without being particularly good. My team just carried me.
4. For the past 2-3 years the aircraft carriers (CVs) are completely broken, and they never tried to fix any of it. Instead, they introduced insanely powerful CVs that can drop 50% of your ship in a matter of seconds. You can't avoid this damage due to the game design. It's just mindboggling how broken it is and how unwilling they are to do anything about it.
5. Besides CVs being utterly broken and unhistorical in every possible way they introduced submarines, which are equally broken.

That being said, the game has great potential. They could have fixed all of the above in a matter of months, instead, they don't care, they keep making things worse with every patch, and the community gets even madder, with people quitting the game.

Every night I want to play and relax, I find myself more stressed due to the above issues. That's why I quit this game for good, and I don't look back. The managers of this company who take the decisions are just insanely incompetent, and I wanted to use heavier words here, but I won't.

I love that the Iowa and Maine are now so weak that they feel like cruisers half the time. They keep weakening damage dealt and increasing damage taken, presumably to rack up sales on the new higher tier ships. But Maine is a P.O.S and it just sucks a55. I have spent a lot with them, time to move on.

world of warships is dead.

world of warships is dead.

this is my 1st time posting a review here.
I am a person who is honest and open and says it like it is.

I've been playing in world of warships here for a few years now it's a nice game, only I've discovered a lot of things that aren't fair.

login server : before the game starts you will see the players on the left and the enemy players on the right.

a while ago you saw real players nicknames and now you see bot nicknames with elite emblems.

when the game starts : while sailing as an online player I don't see any real online players, only bots with nicknames ROD-OF545JM which ships are played by people from the game itself.

the enemy ships are Game Animators they are people who work for the game itself to give animation to the real online players.

Game Animators play with a full mods account that ensures that the real online players are shot out of the game with span killing, or dropping torpedons next to your ship. they hope that you will buy better and different ships with this.

admin in the red chat even let me know...... you can buy any best ship you want i always play stronger than you.

admin has betrayed himself

scammed

been playing game for 6 years. total waste of money.its sad to say that WOW has followed the same foot steps as WOT.pay to play to get ahead.they give you rewards for completing missions and then later in game make updates and you lose all the rewards you earned. write a ticket to get resolved all you get told is turn in a screen shot. no 1 take screen shots of what has been won. no computer has the space for that. so support is a total waste of time never get resolved or reimbursed.yes there is some entertainment but when you are a winner and you play to win you dont want to be cheated by the game or owners of game. but that is what they do. thing that were free not cost money. in these days no 1 has extra funds for games when the priority is food,gas,rent,medical, and the list goes on

Warships rip-off

Beware. Blatant rip-off. My doubloons dropped from 3120 to 2660 and then from 2660 to 2410 without me purchasing anything. Then when I tried to contact wargaming.com they reckon that my email is not associated with the account. That’s funny, it’s the only one I have and is the email I would have used to begin with so that’s really convenient of them. Steal your doubloons and then make out that the account doesn’t exist at all. All I can say is that this is a load of B S

Rigged

Rigged. You are designated to lose. Again and again.

I complained. And, instantly, my game got better. And then they dialed it back. And then I complained again and, again, it got better. Then it got dialed back, but not so much. Then a teammate of mine revealed who was cheating. Then my game dropped. And I lost over and over and over again.

End your subscription.

Boycott this rigged game.

Don't give them your money.
