tm63au Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 (edited) Seriously at first I thought they were joking about the run time. Then when I read the prologue I thought they were going to show underwater scenes for Subs or something and then cutting back to guys hanging around The Wisconsin. But sure enough its actually 10 hours of guys siting around watching barnacles attach to the ship while another guy tries to hook a Marlin offshore !!! Whats next a 20 hour video watching paint flake off of Smolensk's hull. Edited May 19 by tm63au 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral_Karasu Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Ah... found it! WG's new video on some phlegmatic fishermen. What's it about, staring at that image for 10 hours straight or something? Should I give it a try, game play's been a bit on the boring side for me lately, this might very well be the action packed break I could use. I must say very thoughtful of Wargaming to think about us like this. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_cant_Swim_ Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Saw that. What's funny is they ask at the end if you'd like to rate the video... 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel_Allan_Clark Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 (edited) I'm surprised they don't have a pitiful reward drop in there to encourage folks to watch it so they can claim people love WG social media content...

Justin_Simpleton Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 I skimmed through the video, and I see the effort was to make an ambient sound picture incorporating both the seaside and deep woods. You can hear that same cricket that has performed in 'Bonanza' and 'The Rifleman'. Personally, I don't like the sounds of sea as background noise when I'm surrounded by corn fields. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, both videos offer entertainment in different flavors. The fishing video is more relaxing though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tm63au Posted May 19 Author Share Posted May 19 Could just imagine World Of Tanks version of this The setting a North African Oasis Both Tiger 131 and The fury out of fuel and parked under Palm trees in the background with both Tank crews playing cards. In the foreground some mechanic trying to attach the hose to a tank on a refuel truck for 10 hours. Riveting viewing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfswetpaws Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Based upon the comments below the youtube video, there are at least 3 bonus codes embedded within the video. I tried all three and each of them activated for me, this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they make good content, I'll watch it. I'm not so poor as to need to be paid to watch paint dry. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your haste to criticize, you seem to have missed @Wolfswetpaws response to your earlier criticism, where it was explained that you did not need to watch the video, the timestamps of the codes were included. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't communicate my point well...I'm not going to use the codes, as WG staff will use that as an excuse to say that a 10 hour video of watching paint dry was a 'successful' social media engagement post. If you have to bribe people to watch or interact with your content...it's not good content. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridem Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 I was expecting, somehow, a post about that whole Sunday you just spent fishing, complete with photos of some beautiful fish (a nice pike, a few perch..), the pretty river bank you were at etc. I'm disappointed. Not that I blame anyone, I should have known better.😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
