The Crystal Ball

[Ataros]

We all know Wargaming.net, a developer of World of tanks, World of Battleships and World of Warplanes, a relatively rich company.

In 2009 they released a strategy game called Order of War. In 2010 they switched all their attention to World of Tanks and stopped supporting it. By Jan. 2011 the game and forum was dead no patches planned.

This is how this business works nowadays. They can not prove to investors that it is financially feasible to support a 1.5-year old product.

This is what luthier probably means when he says that they decided to support the product unlike other companies. This also means they managed to persuade investors to do so. Very good news so far. They need our support to persuade investors again next month and then again and again till CloD bugs are fixed and BoM is released to pay the investors back. Cursing the devs would only harm this regular persuasion process.
