I had a chat with someone yesterday after a battle. It was abusive from the other player though.....

I've been lucky enough to travel around the world watching F1 races as a paying spectator. I met some people from Quebec and they were friendly enough, one spoke excellent English and the other one tried but only had a few words. These were guys in their 20s as well. So, it's true not everyone can converse in English.

I had similar experience earlier today playing some Japanese Destroyers not using the gun just firing torpedoes...... Makes you wonder about some players (not that I didn't already)....

I think it may be CV as it seems a lot of US carriers have CV - it's part of the hull designation. Found this by using google Cruiser Armored CA large CB battle CC Light CL aviation or Voler CV Destroyer ship DD Escort DE From this web page: http://www.ask.com/wiki/Hull_classification_symbol?o=2802&qsrc=999&ad=doubleDown&an=apn&ap=ask.com

As Restoori has posted the 'A' mentioned on the screen is just an example, it could have shown B, or C or D as they all have the same value for holding (+3).

I try and use the first smoke screen to cover my allies that are following me to either the cap or a 'hold' point. If I've not used it on the approach to the cap I will try and deploy it towards the front of the cap to give my allies space to move around on the cap itself.

Then the ability to use the mod should be prevented. I doubt if the community alone would all agree to not use this mod as many will try to get an advantage any way they can.

You have to be wary of 'team mates' who fire them from behind other players in the team.... Some of the battleships (Fuso) for instance are fairly hard to move out of the way. I've had games where I've been very close to a rock face yet torpedo planes have managed to drop torpedoes between the rock face and my ship - no time to get out of the way then.

There are helpful people around but there are sufficient numbers for the game to start getting the not so nice players in sufficient numbers. Wait until you see an in-game discussion about the aim assist mod! It can rapidly go downhill fast. Some players sail in straight lines or stop in the middle of an open area and clearly the fact that they get hit is because of that mod.

That just happened to me in my Japanese Crusier as I was approaching the cap. I saw my ship sail off in the same direction it had been going but the other ships were sailing past. Apparently I had sailed to be B2/B3 area and was probably stuck against whatever was there. I tried ALT-TABBING and someone suggest Left-Shift and M but this did nothing. I did survive and that was my 1.5x victory of the day (having looked at the screenshot it appears as if I helped cap). The above works OK in preview.....

I'm fairly sure that I've yet to experience lag today. Based in the UK

I think in some ships the turning circle is so bad that in order to cap by yourself it could be necessary to either slow down or stop to prevent going out of the cap circle. There is nothing worse than about to cap and you slip out of the cap area.... But as others have posted any sort of behaviour is possible in on-line games. Maybe in an early game the player just sat in one spot and took out everything that came near them. It worked once so it will always work...

Observation is the best way. Some people are simply able to judge distance and movement better than others. It does help if the enemy does act in a predicable manner. Some targets are harder to hit than others simply because they are either smaller or can maneouver better than others.

I think spare invite codes are very hard to find. I've seen YouTubers 'give away' some but you probably need to subscribe to their TwitchTV channel. Do what many of use have done - buy in via one or the set of three (better value?) of the premium ships.

Enjoy it!

Please - as other posts are off-topic.

A lot depends on what that lemming train does and if the remaining vehicles and players are good or lucky enough to hold back the enemy team. If the lemming train 'pushes' and clears out one flank and then flanks the enemy team and helps the other flanks then the lemmings have done their work. However, more often than not the lemmings either get in the way of each other around a corner and end up losing the lemming flank and the team fails badly. Clearly, not being in the lemming train can be very frustrating, however, if there are a few players on the non lemming flank defend and don't do stupid things then it can be OK - you can deal sufficient damage to make even a loss of vehicle worth while.

While some premium vehicles in WoT do get preferential MM they are being withdrawn from sale. Any new premium vehicles don't get preferential MM. Clearly the old premiums that did get preferential MM will remain in the game and won't lose that.

OK, thanks for that. As Vanhal has pointed out a captain for a destroyer may need different skills than a cruiser or battleship captain especially for the Japanese fleet - the US destroyers sometimes need to concentrate on gunnery due to the short range of the torpedoes.

So, is it the same as WoT in that you can put a captain from a non premium destroyer into a premium destroyer and they don't need any retraining on the premium ship? Do they need to be of the same class?

I agree that this mod should not be allowed. I played without it until yesterday. I felt that others were using it to their advantage which meant I was at a disadvantage not using it, so I installed it. I'd much prefer that aiming was back to the eyeball and judgement of where the enemy ships may move to.

I believe you can train the captain of the ship much as you can in WoT - so if you had the Sims (tier VII Destroyer) you could share that officer with another US destroyer. One of the bigger problems at the moment is that there is not the number of players that will help MM - the result is you will be dragged into more higher tier battles at the moment than you would once the game is released.

I don't think the troll platoons should be banned just prevented from being used in-game. Maybe a one tier spread at most? When playing WoT I would have lower tier vehicles and use them to platoon with players who only had lower tier vehicles - I'd go as far as to play the same type of vehicle (light/medium/heavy/td/SPG) as the platoon mates. While Wargamming does not prevent such troll platoons they will always appear in-game every now and then. Just as will platoons that just want to shoot each other rather than the enemy - at least some sort of team damage system is apparently coming soon (remember that in WoT it took many years before intra-platoon damage counted as team damage).....

I found this one: http://pkwot.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/world-of-warships-mods-collection.html

I did not say that I used XVM to find the stats of the heavy tank at the back sniping to tell them what to do. The bits that show the players stats are just part of the mod pack that I use. In-game I don't say anything to other players about their statistics as I see that as pointless. As I posted I've seen the so called 'red' players do the right things in battle fort the team.
