You've been given an explanation as to why the Wheel has been disabled. There is not really anything else to add to it and whether you believe it or continue with the same line of complaints you have in more or less every post you make is up to you entirely.
Have you ever took the time to consider that the complaining that shows up on this forum ( be it from me or anyone else ) could simply be because there are things to complain about ? Because you should care about what your customers/players are complaining about ? Feedback in general is mostly complains, as not very much people would come to spend time by telling you how happy you make them (i would throw a party if they are happy !).
Yet again like Alyona you seem to take the complains at a personal level .We know that there's nothing you can do about anything AT all regarding the game. My expectations would be from the higher chain of command (someone that literally has decision powers).
For me it's very clear, what-ever fault plarium ever does , a simple excuse and "we'll work on it" solves the day. Sure , go ahead take few months or why not years. Yes sarcastic but you know it's the truth. How do you think a loyal player feels when you announce to him features like UnitXP (and they are still not here after 1year) ?
You can also very clearly see that there's a ton of hate towards the game imbalance that yet again you/plarium created because of the greedy scarcity tactics (that daily tailored purchase offers , forced down our minds to see every day because why not ? maybe the player is interested in the offer ... yeah right -> better said you are interested to force more sales). But yes i also agree , welcome to the world of corporations/consumerism (but still mate , a decent limit could be made, my personal belief is that you/plarium have crossed the greed line long ago). So with this game imbalance in mind , considering the missing Wheel of Fortune now (denying the small guys even more) , how should we feel ? loved ? cared ? keep waiting ?
One funny thing that i also found , on plarium's website , an article talking exactly about the greed and problems with all this microtransactions/scarcity tactics: https://plarium.com/en/mmo-games/truple-a-games-microtransactions-loot-boxes/
Quotes from the article:
1) The trouble with AAA games that include microtransactions is obvious: you purchase the game at a premium price, but then have to pay if you want to get ahead and keep up with the “big dogs”
2) Microtransactions can prevent some people from playing the game. If you don’t have dozens of hours to dedicate to a game, and can’t afford to pay to win and remain competitive, you’re stuck. You either don’t play it at all, or you play it and don’t ever get the full experience
3) The problem comes in when you’re playing with people who decided to spend the money for the in-game purchases, who are now at higher levels than you. Your gameplay experience immediately gets far worse than anyone who shelled out the cash.
Nice things said ! Seems you/plarium did look/cared to comment about greed/microtrasanctions about different publishers , how about own yard ?
P.S. The scope of my complain and most probably from the rest of the topic contributors : Expedite the re-adding of Wheel Of Fortune ( you don't show us signs that it's "a matter of the utmost importance" . Because for small guys , i bet it is something very important !
[sarcasticjoke]P.S.2. I guess i should make a fun-club or something with guys like Tonoya , the complainers of the century ! :D [/sarcasticjoke]

Totally agree !!!... And those who complain are just a tiny part of the universe of complaints, because people want to play and not waste time writing !!!
Devs needed to disable the feature for the upcoming beta-test, unfortunately, it was needed.LOL .. don't think anybody thinks that ..the real reasons were another ..but why only users have to suffer ...if an problem it;s because of you guys ..compensate the users ...for having for so much time the WOF disabled ..and having to spend a lot more drachmas for some items that they should had if it was on
Hello, any update on the Wheel of Fortune return please ? Thank you.
Hello, Flipper. Unfortunately, I do not have an exact ETA for you right now.Hello, any update on the Wheel of Fortune return please ? Thank you.
they could compensate with more offers like 30% sketches, 50% troops etc that also seems not to be doing as often as they used to ...I have to agree with this...I know specifically that 50% off unit sales are very rare now compared to in the past.
they used to be always with the 75% one after the other, but in the last six months i rarely remember two time 50%
Oh I'm certain they want our money...I bet what has happened is they figured out people were still buying units without the discount...enough so that they may have calculated they were losing money with it, even if more did spend during the discount period, then they were if they just rarely offered it.
Mostly likely because the majority of big spenders, will only wait so long before buying, regardless, at full price.
While smaller coiners/spenders, maybe do spend more during the 50% discount, but not enough to make up for the loss of what the big coiners are spending if its not offered.
100% agree
but any company with common sense, wouldn't concentrate their marketing strategy in the income of a few players money, because if they leave, there are left with nothing, while the medium spenders we are more ad the loose of a couple fo them, noone would notice...
anyway common sense is the less common of the senses
Not even understand why people still waisting their time and money on this game
It's typical plarium to threat us like we are children
Give candy first and take from us later on without any prior notice
Do we have any idea when the wheel will return?
No still not working. roblem is that devs needed to remove something from game so that they could pass more players on the easier way. We are all waiting for WoFDo we have any idea when the wheel will return?
I understand that people are being migrated over to the beta test platform - does the wheel work over there?
what is the status of the wheel of fortune?
it was said to be something temporally but still nothing since january when it was temporally disseable
