Wargaming is dealing with backlash from unhappy customers over changes to a
Humble Bundle deal for World of
Warships, their upcoming naval combat game, though they have compromised
from their original stance on the topic. The deal originally offered a premium
ship (the Murmansk), premium game time, in game gold, ship slots, and closed
beta access, but later players were told they would not be able to keep their
premium goodies once the game went live. This met with backlash from customers
claiming deception (especially after the ship then went on sale in the item
shop), but the latest update on the
World of Warships official forum now tells players they will be able to keep
their Murmansk after all. This
reddit thread is where this all boiled over, and the latest update to the
original post notes that the other elements of the deal are still not being
fulfilled. Wargaming's explanation is that they never intended the ship and
other perks to carry out of the closed beta, even though the original offer
stated they would. They edited the wording of the offer at some point after it
was posted, but failed to revise their blog post, and for a while were trying to
stand their ground, but eventually relented on ship ownership. Thanks Lord Solar
Macharius.
