I just came from Prokorovka, in my PZ35T, and I am upset about the way WOT determines fines, with the last few patches.  I have been done this way twice now and this is
just not right, I don't care who you are.  Sitting still and someone else runs into you, damages your tank and then you get get fined for damaging thier tank?  This
is just not right, fair, or even conducive to good game play or morale.  No, I did not record the battle, I never do and will not start as I know that most likely it
will not do any good to have it recorded anyway.

I am merely here to express my concern about a growing problem, as I see it that will ultimately bit WOT in the backside.  When a player keeps being done this way, it
breeds comtempt, disrespect, low morale, dwindling #'s of player, etc.  This issue need to be addressed and soon.

PS: This may have already been posted about, sorry but I just had to say something.  I hope it is in the right place.

its happened to me too , thats all i have to say about that

It happens alot in my kv but you can't do anything about it for now.

This has happened to me several times when in Himmelsdorf and we all start on a corner grouped and I for one, try my best not to get hit or, hit anyone then, someone just runs right into me and I'm getting fined as well for damages done to him when he's doing damages to me instead. I'm also getting fired upon just as the clock stops and the game begins and losing my armor in the process making it harder for me to survive when I do run up on my opponent. I'm non-Premium and my earnings are not that great to begin with and getting fined and paying for the repairs certainly makes the battles not worth the time. I know players are placed at random in game but, why so close together on some maps?

Some times, I wonder if a parent has his/her child in their lap letting them play and telling them to, 'Shoot the tank'  just for kicks trying to teach them how to play?.  They shoot the tanks alright, but not the ones they're supposed to be shooting.

I know but it does not make it right, this is the second time in less than 5 days I have been done that way.  The last time was much worse, it cost almost all the
5K I made off the battle.  Man was I hot about that, got run into by three different tanks trying to kill the target I had almost destroyed, in my RAMII.

I just got fined xp and credits in my KV-3 for a SPG that was faster than me and he rammed me in the rear. Next time someone rams me and gets damaged I'm reporting them.

I has someone ram me and die and I got double fined for damage and for killing them . . . really sucked.

The "grief system" is flawed.  It doesn't even work consistently.  Some matches I get shot, and even killed by TKers, but I don't receive any compensation.  Furthermore, the system, more times then not, only rewards the griefers and the people who don't care enough to pay attention to where they are going.

They should just make any team damage be applied to the guy who caused it.  You shoot someone, by mistake or on purpose, you get damaged yourself.  But that's not "realistic" so I'm sure WG won't even entertain such a solution.  TKing has been an issue forever, and since they put in the "fine" system, I haven't noticed WG take any care to address or acknowledge the current issues with TK.

Of course the autosystem is stuffed/broken/kaput. But I suspect its a lot cheaper than employing someone to shift through and correct the complaints...just get the computer to "fix" the problem. Unfortunately, the programming is only as good as the codes created by the programmers.

Just had a crazy team member damage me in the back >2-3 seconds after I killed the last enemy. And there was no way that team member could say it was accidental, since the enemy was obscured from his view. So copped 20% damages but NO COMPENSATION! WG responded with a generic reply asking me to read about the autosystem! LOL.

Next person who wins the lottery, please buy out wargaming.net so we can get someone to make this game fun.

I've seen reports of WG replying in the manner you experienced, in just about every problem complained about with the game.  All the legitimately broken parts being complained about are basically ignored by them.  Sony pulled this crap with the original EverQuest.  By the time other competitive MMOs were coming around, people were leaving EQ,threatening SOE's profits.  So many people played EQ, but even then, the number of people who left the game because of Sony's lack of customer service and attention to game issues affected SOE's wallet.  They finally did a personnel overhaul and got rid of a ton of people.  They replaced them, and their policy, with customer service.

All we need is for a gaming company to come up with a WoT clone.  If I had the money to invest in a company to create a game similar to WoT, I would do it in a heartbeat.  When something like this happens, WG will feel the pain in their wallets, and only then will pretend to give a crap about their customers.  What happened to SOE will happen to WG.  Unfortunately it will be years before it happens.

Look at this garbage. I am on the Himmelsdorf Map/Encounter and I'm heading down the hill and a T-49 pulls into me on my right side and I get my tracks damaged in the process. Not sure what happened to him but, this is my compensation for him hitting me and his compensation in return.


Defeat
Battle: Himmelsdorf Monday, August 20, 2012 12:46:57 PM
Vehicle: PzKpfw IV
Experience received: 110 (fine for causing damage to allies: 16)
Credits received: 4,496 (fine for causing damage to allies: 2,190; compensation for damage caused by allies: 60)
What kind of bullshit is this? Are you fkn crazy or, what?



Sry for the small ss but that's how it's set up. Not to clear but, you can make it out, anyway. I need to start making more money like that then.

SOE still has horrid customer service
If they increase the fines it will cause people to intentionally farm credits by forcing you to hit them etc. been stated before, I do not think they will raise the fines up again.

Some moron in a t-50 going full speed rammed into the side of my stationary t34 dealing himself 90 damage. I really don't care about a few credits, but it really upsets me when it was 100% his fault and WG steals 2500 of my credits to pay for his mistake. If this was a rare occurrence, I would blow it off. However, this crap happens all the time. I could be wasting my breath here. Maybe with the new physics, they addressed this nonsense.

More damage done today that I had to pay for so, from now on, I'm going to get my money's worth if, I'm going to be paying for it.
