Still a work in progress, but I feel they outlined a majority of pain points for the Community with a plan to address them. What do you think?

nothing new here and nothing to keep new players and nothing to keep old players from leaving since you still don't take into account players with uber mod stats in game, nothing like fighting unicorn players that are from top clans, RIGGED HELL YEAH and will stay that way since wargaming cant figure out how stop the unicorns from killing half the team.
to fix the game after years of screwing players make your unicorn players only play other unicorn players and take into account players % then and only then will you fix the game.
But they are only now acting like they are fixing the game since there money is walking away to other company's.

Mom!! It's not fair playing a game where someone with skill is better than me, where is my participation award?
Seriously Unicums are not running around pubbie matches and ruining the game because they are more skilled then you, there are WAY more tomatoes out there that could effect the outcome of a game than unicums.
The changes to the vehicle type matchup have been well done IMO. This avoids, for example, 4 meds fighting 4 TDs (I love meds but really not fun fighting 4 Jagzillas working together). The tier mm needs to progress to the next level. Have you tested 2 tier (+/- 1 tier) matchmaking? Just as the game progression has allowed the move from 5 tier mm to 3 tier mm, it is now time to move to 2 tier mm. The video said it - bottom tier vehicles in 3 tier mm cannot realistically fight the top tier vehicles. While still disadvantaged, all tanks can realistically fight a tank 1 tier higher. I would happily fight tanks 1 tier higher more often to avoid having to fight tanks 2 tiers higher. Why do you think the queue has changed with so many more tier 9s being played? Player behavior has changed in response to mm. It's the only tier (other than starting tiers) that can be assured to be no lower than 1 tier from the top in a battle. I personally love tier 9 for this reason. MM is of huge importance to the enjoyment to the game and is singularly the most frustrating issue for players. PLEASE look at 2 tier mm. You will be improving the game more than any other change and eliminating the #1 reason players leave the game.
BTW the current 3 tier mm is one of the main reasons so much prem ammo is used now so you can solve 2 issues with one change.

This doesn't address the issue at all!
I mean seriously Wargaming! The problem is +2 MM. We want +1 at most. All you are doing is introducing more +2 MM variations. Now instead of potentially only seeing THREE +2 Tier tanks, you can now see up to FIVE!!!
THAT IS COMPLETE [edited]! Like what the hell do you guys even look at for feedback??? Surely it isn't your playerbase. It's almost as if you consult a magic 8 ball instead of looking at the actual feedback.
You community has been screaming +1/-1 for years and you are like "Okay comrade we will introduce 3-5-7!" which pisses off your playerbase as we're bottom tier 80% of the time. You then realize your mistake after we keep yelling at you idiots for +1/-1 and then you tell us "Here you go communist pigs, 5-5-5 MM".
ONCE AGAIN WE ALL WANT AT THE MAX +1/-1 MM. WE DO NOT WANT TO SEE TANKS TWO TIERS HIGHER THAN US!!!!
In all honesty fudge the queue times. I'd much rather wait a few more seconds or minutes to get a match with +1/-1 than to be a useless brick in +2 MM. Please take your "New & Improved" MM template and shove it up your chimney and just let it burn cuz we don't want that crap.

Yup what ever you got to say TOXIC player you are, funny how all you kids go right to the Mom saying and jokes, just shows that the player base has gone to the little kids,
Yeah unicorns more skilled FUNNY as all hell you think that, but Im sure your blindness is a great advantage to you.

I whole-heartedly agree on the elimination of the three-tier garbage problem, so this needs to be gone for good, period.

So....you want players to sit in queue longer just because they are good at this game? 'Cause that is what will happen, since there are few Unicums in this game. Waiting for the queue to have enough other Unicums to build 2 teams......and that just happen to be playing the correct tier and type of tank will likely take awhile.
I still think templates need to go the way of the dodo, adhere to the balance of equal tier counts, but ditch the templates. Variety is good. Just as long as that variety doesn't include 3 tier tens versus 10 tier tens, which was the huge complaint.

We are all good at the game, as far as waiting in queue longer if that is what it takes that is what it takes, As far as being better then me I can hold my own TY much,
I have had friends come and play this game and leave after a few days weeks since they get to play on teams full of low % players fighting high % players, So in there eyes game is not fun.
As far as wait time I play other games that are set up to play players of same stats and it is fun and you need skills to play, not like this game set up for a more skilled player to fight less skilled players.

No we are NOT all good at the game. That's half the point.
