Players who invest both money, time and energy can be called core players. Gaijin has shown such disregard for the demands and interests of core players this time—so if a similar bug occurs again, will they just stay silent once more? If they don’t even respect core players, how can other regular players expect to be respected?
War Thunder is a game for true men. Friends, look at the tanks and fighter jets belonging to your country in the game—they were created to protect you from being wronged. We should not back down, nor should we give in. Please do not stop voicing our opinions on the forum, and keep communicating with the game customer service.
I am a Chinese player. In my country, there is a consumer rights protection hotline called “12315”. Unfortunately, War Thunder is not developed by a Chinese game company; otherwise, I would definitely call this number to fight for my legitimate rights and interests. I hope friends from other countries can consider taking similar actions.
I just need 1M SL then I will be happy that is all I need. They get something for free I get something for free. Same with other people who received nothing.
So Gaijin have decided to turn “bug” into “giveaway”, thus letting bunch of players to have unfair advantage over the rest of playerbase.
There is only one way to deal with this unfair act, dear fellow players.
Demand:
Compensate all GE spent on purchasing Expanded Battlepass and BP levels to all players who have bought them before 12th of September
Give extra BP levels and BP medals to allow every player to instantly claim every possible reward from the BP, including all 148 levels of rewards and the whole WB shop.
(Optional) Restrict main BP rewards (SB-25 and WZ-141) from being sold on marketplace, delete duplicate coupons after the end of current BP
I understand that giving away so many of free stuff will be too much for poor server hamster, the “Compensation” can be delivered gradually over the course of 1-2 weeks.
Since Gaijin have confirmed that all players who have received bugged Battlepass levels will be keeping them, there should be fair compensation given to all players who had actually purchased and played through the current Battlepass season.
Not only do numerous accounts now have access to the 6 vehicles in the warbond shop, but also, given they had purchased the Battlepass, an instant payout of the exclusive Battlepass vehicles as well as upgrade coupons and even multiple of said vehicles in some cases.
The fact that people who have many hundreds of BP levels essentially have unlimited warbonds, leads to those players being able to purchase hundreds number of boosters and wagers from the warbond shop, all the vehicles in the warbond shop and 11 random talismans, not to mention the camo, decal and decoration boxes.
I hope Gaijin sees to compensate fairly those who have not had the luxury of a bugged Battlepass via refunding the Battlepass for those who purchased it before the bug and/or giving all who did not receive the bugged levels, at least an extra hundred levels on top of what they had at time of the bug occurring in order to have the paying core playerbase not feel cheated of their time and effort in grinding the Battlepass.
As other users have stated, there can be a number of ways to compensate players fairly and to restrict multiple coupons received by few being tradable. We must be hopeful that there will be a fair end result to this happening, however long it takes.
So from now on, no one will buy and grind the battle pass anymore, because they might think they can once again luck out and get all the rewards through bugs. Is this what Gaijin hopes for?
Gaijin, you have seriously offended your most loyal players. Why is it that those who love you end up hurt, while those who don’t are celebrating triumphantly?
Friends, let’s not stop appealing for justice. I cannot accept seeing other players already using the “Flying Dragon” title in the game while I’m still struggling to level up. I cannot accept that the WZ141 I worked so hard for has become worthless on the GaijinStore.
Gaijin, please provide a generous compensation plan—only this can repay the trust and affection we have for you.
So I drop $1000 in just the last 3 months with thousands of hrs played… and I’m stuck at the same level I was at. No compensation mentioned. Been playing since the OG CBT on my original account. This here is just from my Steam account playtime. Somewhere around 13 years and $40k. This is the biggest slap in the face yet. What am I helping keep your servers on and food on your tables for guys?
I’m pretty sure we need to start withholding both time and money until we get a reasonable response on this. Will also be lowering my reviews for the game. Which considering I play on every platform the game has… is at least 3 1 stars just from me.
If enough of us speak up we will have something positive from both sides. These issues also need to stop popping up. Every time we get close to fixing things some bs scandal comes along
I’m not sure if it would fall into any legal territory in anyway. At least not to be contacting any officials outside of Gaijin. However here in America we have the BBB which does keep a record, and can be freely used by anyone. If the company does not have a page one can be made. Usually a formal response is received through their help.
This would probably not do a damn thing to Gaijin. The best we got is to keep the review bombing up IF they don’t get us a good response within 48hrs. That’s plenty of time to get back to work on Monday and figure it out. This could really make or break the games future.
There’s also some slim chance it was a targeted thing and not a normal glitch. Which would take time to investigate.
There are US federal organizations which do have legal jurisdiction, however I will not advocate nor support contacting any of them. Especially right now as it is the weekend and we have yet to see if Gaijin has any further plans to address this current situation.
I thought I mentioned they were a different thing and didn’t have real authority? Also that I would wait until at least Monday night (48hrs) before even lowering reviews much less contacting any officials. It’s a game bug/glitch/hack not a terrorist attack.
I was thinking something like that . … for players that got the “Happy Meal” for 2000 GEs or by reaching level 125 in the previous BP - 50 levels(not those that already have been “boosted” tho) and for those getting the “Full Meal Deal” for 2500 GEs - 100 levels.
A compromise, something reasonable and more a show of good faith than just “giving it all away”.
Those that benefited from the glitch . . . good for you . . .
even a blind nut gets a squirrel once in a while . . .
While watching others reaping windfalls, deserved or not, is nothing to get angry about I don’t think . . . yes it is disappointing, and sure the Tooth Fairy could throw us all a bone, but it’s not likely . . .
But no sense burning down the house because you saw a mouse, yeah?
I think Gaijin could/should do something for the rest of us, but I would also understand if they don’t. I didn’t buy a BP lottery ticket, so I didn’t expect to win anything, but . . . . I wouldn’t say no to a little gimmie either . . lol
In the previous 19 Battle Passes the lowest I have finished has been level 134
I am not going to make it that far this time . . . C’est la Vie
Well done, I won’t spend another penny on this game nor do I plan to continue playing it. The money I’ve spent and the time I’ve wasted are no different from a joke
My BP is fine? I never had the bug or wasn’t logged in during it. Mine wasn’t rolled back. It’s right where it ought to be (not very high since I didn’t buy in to this season, but it’s about 60something I’m in match right now can’t look).
