Watched parts of the streams before dinner....not bad :-)

 

Only disappointment was the "theft" of codes by the sneaky Russians....sigh....

[aleksije89]

I watched both days and the gaming part is good. Few people got thousands of gold and weeks of premium and most of us 100 gold.... You should think about posting big fat code after the tournament so you would smooth things over with everybody... Why should we buy more gold if people are stealing it???

[izroda]

The fact they all play the same 3-4 tanks makes things boring. WG should really try to make other tanks competitive to the tier VIII autoloaders with gold.

This is something WG will never do It's just not their style to fix mistakes like this.

Day 2 Summary : 

 

• Someone won,
• Someone else lost,
• Some people got bored watching for codes, 
• Codes got DERPED.
• End of Day 2.

[Thomeus]

The summary is that you didnt gave codes that you promised WG. Nothing else matters as the song says!

[lemonizzle]

too stronk to admit the fk up... well it was good until it lasted (i meant the free geld of course)

[portuguese007]

You guys are a bad joke and making this summary is like pissing in our face.

There are some people that stayed all day seing the stream for the codes and nothing, so bad joke.

[Pater_Leppich]

The only joke is chat begging and people watching 10 hours stream for 200-300 gold. Heck, try to tell them to type anything to win gold, even if it's OMGBONUSCODE and twitch will crash from the spam. Good job to the people who figured out the url's, a hard lesson for wg to be more careful where they store stuff. We lost nothing.

[SanyaJuutilainen]

I won't comment on the codes, because I don't care about them.

 

Good games today, better than yesterday - the teams are stepping their games up, it seems. Looking forward to tomorrow's (today's) games.

Oh, and the ending matches were the best, PvP getting better and better and raising from ashes, really good show!

[Ivan_Tomatoff]

sorry, russ:

Тут на евроофисе кто-то очень ленивый протерял все коды. нафига было все заранее выкладывать?

все коды УЖЕ использованы.

All possible codes have been used.

Actually I am happy. No more bonus codes means I don't have to watch the most boring e-sports event no more!

Like 1 hour setting up teams, hosts talking BLABLALBA, then 4 minutes camping and 30 seconds of action.... aaand repeat.

You seriously watched something you didn't find interesting just to get tiny amounts of gold? There's something called the Premium shop, where at the moment you can get 3500 gold and 30 days premium for the cost of a few beers. No need to watch anything.

 

I for one thought it was fairly entertaining, though the talk between games was more interesting than the games themselves. And it was a bit surprising that the hosts (who didn't seem like typical WoT-players, if there is such a thing) actually knew what they were talking about.

Pretty much this sums it all up. WG gets the 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize in "Cocked it up awards 2014 edition". If the codes would have been used by EU players, they would have gotten banned, but since it was mother russia players that used them, it's ok.

Yesterdays games were more interesting than day 1, because on first day teams camp way too much, big stack is in the game this time . In game 7vs7 mode improved this competition a lot. More and more ppl are playing this now, the best indicator is that ESL cup where you can see more and more teams, no more easy games for those pro teams...

 

WG still has to improve its broadcasting, there is so much waiting, as opposed to that action and games we see. Then they has to put more graphics into broadcasting, teams statistics, brackets, post match analysis, etc etc.  Official site is a mess, and on day one it was off for the most of the time because of the traffic.

 

And at the end the CODES. Everyone has to admit that most of the spectators were on that twitch were there for those bonus codes. I was wondering so many times if that WG has any marketing management at all. I dont know if there is a problem in the company's organizational structure or what, but we saw so many failures in last year or so. And for the company with intentions like WG has, and for the company with such revenue its just unacceptable. It is such a bad publicity that is gonna reflect on every aspect in their business. And in a month or so the first impression of this first WoT's World championship will be leaked codes, wgstaff failure instead of great show, nice games...
