I'm a little shocked to find that the with the new achievements that none of our past runs count towards it. For those that have been playing tanks since launch I find this a bit of a slap in the face overall.
I just want to know is it just me, or do others feel the same?
Hardcores should be delighted. More mindless grind for them.
It's there to bring more tanks in...does having it auto-complete on log in not seem odd to you?
I don't really see how it could be a slap in the face for SE to not have been tracking this the whole time, unless you're suggesting they should have made the achievement something that they were already tracking (if anything).
This was something they hadn't really anticipated early on, so the DB was probably not set to store that kind of data. The less queries to the DB, the better, so it makes sense why they wouldn't do this at launch.
I find the fact that achievements are still broken in general a slap to the face. New achievements not being retroactive is fine. I played a tank this whole time as a main and I continue to do so.
"for those who have been doing all along" it was something along those lines that would make you think it would be retroactive..
In the live stream that they did, they mentioned the new mounts, and they also said they wanted to thank the tanks who had been tanking for the community. Naturally I thought they had been tracking progress for us.
I am heartbroken.
The problem I have is that they set an expectation in many players minds (yes when I watched the live stream I was left with the same impression that is was a thank you for older tanks and a carrot for newer tanks), and the reality is different.
Sidenote: This is the same as when the patch notes say that GC cost for a mat is 1500 seals and in game it is 2500 seals.
yeah i have I have been playing pld since release and none of that means anything? like seriously? BLAH!
