win10 loads the OS much much faster, of this there is no doubt, I work with it every day. As for WoWs it loads much faster after the last patch, and not due to win10 (as you said).

Karma the chameleon? I'm happy on zero, the highest I've been is 9 I think but then worked hard to get it to zero. Toxic? Yes, I am at times, but usually always provoked and like a fool I give in to temptation, and because I can be mouthy, say some things I regret afterwards. Some people are plain nasty, some exercise human nature and show their imperfections. I've said sorry loads of times and made quite a few friends this way, in fact it's the best way to make friends sometimes since the bond is so much stronger when you're making up after a fight? So...don't specifically be racist, anti-religious, or homophobic...jus hate everyone equally onc in a while and they can only accuse you of being salty...or as one guy directed my way in a battle last night....he simply typed 'NACL?' Brilliant. Most of us rarely stay upset for long, as long as we man up and admit we're wrong and try very hard not to do it again.

We can argue / debate / whine / politely complain.... and so we will. Feel free to post all you like about your molotov, but for some of us we're welcome to our opinions....as are you. So until they eventually arrive we will keep makig our statements and you may as well keep telling us whatever you want to, simple as that, nothing changes. If you get tired of telling us the same thing over and over, then simply stop telling us and ignore the stuff you don't want to hear. You're not being forced into anything. And finally, PATIENCE and THEY WILL BE HERE are a word and a phrase respectively that mean extremely little to those that have waited what seems forever. They are cliche's that do nothing but buy time, waste ours, and overall are not taken seriously. That enough for you?

The reporting function (as far as I am aware) only affects your karma...a great idea by wargaming to stop them receiving support tickets..a nice little buffer for them of sorts allowing us players to 'punish' others instead of writing long winded reports to bots running the WG support service. Whether the karma system links up with some other system by WG allowing them to monitor players is only something WG will know. Basically they're provided us sheep with a little button to push when we're unhappy...a button that in reality does nothing.

Good grief, how are you guys all getting diamonds so quickly? You playing a lot of games because I'm up to date on the weekly ones, unless of course you're killing a lot of ships, or both?

Not sure, I'd have to test it myself to see if it works...lots and lots and lots of testing. After about my 100th game as top tier I may then agree with you

Lots of things apparently, but not you Icarus

Agree totally. Won't be buying this one. My next purchase will be something from the RN when it arrives. I have sufficient russian vessels, and now it's becoming boring.

Seen a lot of these today, games at tier 7 and 8 with division players in a dresden and the like. 10 Losses in a row trying to double my Lex - of those 10 - 3 were fail divisions.

So I tried to get the double on my new lexington carrier. 10 games later, 10 losses. One or two games weren't my best but in the rest I played ok but the teams collapsed. 4 of the games had troll platoons with tier 2 and 3 ships. So I go to bed tonight feeling like I've been [edited] over. Nice!

How so, have you ever spoken to someone who has died this way? My guess is 'no', but in any case, if you could they'd probably be so paraletic they wouldn't make any sense, haha.

It's dog eat dog, we all want the kills but we act like we have to have them now. Why not just play as normal because the kills will come. Just got 4 in my ranger not even trying to kill anything specifically. Opportunity came knocking, lol, but then again there are probably 4 pretty pissed of players out there now, ups.

quoted post removed But you;ve been playing a load of Wot lately haven't you? The rng there is far far worse.

Well someone has to kill the enemy, but even with this it creates friction on your team when all friction should be directed toward the enemy. We are already competing with the red team, why make us compete with our own team members?

Apart from the shitty short range of the guns on the mogami, the 203's are nice to play with and the torps are epic. I single-handedly took out a full health colorado and kutuzov at very close range by citadelling the kutozv and torping the colorado within 5 seconds of each other. Maybe they were noobs but the mogami is still a beast to play given the chance and some love. Folks need to adjust to the change and get those 203's working with HE, they decimate destroyers.

English forum chaps...russian forum is elsewhere. Why make an english title and then speak in Russian anyhow?

Friendly bump, but only because bushwacker is a total noob! He used to bully my alter ego and now I'm tainted for life.

Got mine with a copy of PC Gamer a long while back, I like playing it now and then for some low tier clubbing.

I really really really enjoy the game, until I lose my first battle. Thereafter I hate WG with vengeance and report every player that kills me. All in all I'm a reasonably balanced person, I know that when I'm beaten it's because players are using hacks and aim assists, and whenever my shot misses it's because of rng. Jokes aside, the things I'd like to see improved are the MM in terms of ship distribution and perhaps a hard cap on dd's just like for cv's, but perhaps more than just 2. Perhaps WG could eventually release some of those large numbers of ships that have been in testing for months and months. This would be nice. Lastly, I'd like to win the lotto, just once.

Your advise, aka. the same humdrum advice given by so many others, is not applicable to all ships. I wish folks wouldn't given blanket advice and expect that it applies to all ships in the game. Sometimes dodging torps is impossible, especially with close manual drops while trying to steer away from or into cross dropped torps. Easy at times, impossible on occasions, depending on the ship. There are tips in 'trying to avoid torpedoes' but often no foolproof solution.

Any this is why players who rely solely on win rate as a measure of skill are delusional. People would argue you'll have the advantage at times as much as you'd have the disadvantage over time, but when that factor itself depends so much on the 'luck of the draw' mm lotto system, some players will be more lucky that others and have artificially inflated win rates,etc. I feel sorry for the game when (if) clans come about because the whole clan ego system comes into play with people being far more judgemental than is warranted. Ego reigns supreme in the immature.

What's the train of thought on the final milestone labelled 'It's a secret'? Anyone speculating?

The mm is shocking at times, but ultimately I think we bother about it too much, me included. What goes around comes around. As long as it does a half reasonable job most of the time I'm relatively happy and so should most of everyone else. It's only a game!

It takes too long to scroll to the bottom of the thread

I agree with a hard cap per side, however I think 6 is far too much and even a balance of 2 v 4 like I've seen in so many battles can sway the game horribly in the direction of the team with more dd's. One more dd on a team is fair enough, but when it starts getting to games with more than 1 difference between the teams then we're going into the realms of imbalance and giving one team an advantage.
