  1. If playing a mode isnt fun because people playing it ruin it, the mode design failed.

    Anyone seen this before?

    I run a Intel core i7 920 @2,67 Ghz, 12GB ram (forgot but probably DDR3 or 4), GForce GTX 750 Ti running Windows 10 pro 64 bits I had vid. quality on setting high, this was set automatically i guess? I've lowered it to medium to see if that helps anything.

    Thanks. The replays look completely normal except for me obviously running around like a headless chicken. This seems to happen all locally. You have this thread, and several people who might be willing to help you. I'm no longer one of those people sadly. Check the ITA forums too is what I hear.

    Yup I have that too.
  7. Cruisers going 120 knts, nope not interested. Another kiddy event much like the mario cart dd racing spam event a while ago.

    I also got hit by a torpedo I actually evaded, closely but it shouldn't have hit me according to my screen. Also, when loads of incoming superfast torpedoes are on my screen (3 DD's all fired at me) plus AA, the torpedo markers 'jumped' large distances instead of gliding towards me.

    Anyone seen this before?

    Yup, I have the exact same issues.

    Thanks. It is most likely not a server client sync issue, you can see in the video that i was able to sucessfully hit and kill enemy ghosts ships. To me it all reeks of memory leaks or mishandeling which cumulates into a myrad of issues. So either my memory is corrupted or dying, or the game is mishandeling memory managment. Or something else is going on. I don't know. It's not my game. As far as I know memory gets allocated based on need, so if mishandled, there could still be free allocatable memory on the system, but the allocated memory section could be getting clogged up? I don't know, I'm an uneducated cow there for the milking right? Not my problem, theirs. All I have to do is stop playing this POS, it's happened a couple of times now.

    Thanks. I noticed the sound lingering on too, faintly. I keep wondering why i hear shells flying like a soft lullaby Maybe Im playing too much ^^

    End battle image bug.

    Ive seen this before in a game I worked on, that 'image' could be the previous level still loaded in memory. This would also explain my game wigging out after playing for a while.

    Is matchmaking broken?

    Is matchmaking broken?

    WOWS is designed as a (lootbox) resource collector game more and more, creating a playerbase that is focused on reward mechanics instead of gameplay mechanics. If you haven't noticed, all evernts are about resources and time gating, not about knowledge or skill. Even ranked is a time gated resource event over a skill based event. The thing people like bast about coop usuaally is that matches last 2-3 minutes. Better bots are frouned upon. MM is not the issue actually, it's just random behaving like random does. I do understand where you are coming from, I had an insane losing streak at patch day, and aside from that being one hell of a troll magnet by itself, I was having a bad day and it reflected on my choices ingame, so a 45% WR for the day as a result. Calm down and try to recall where your strengths lie, re focus on those.
  16. Yes I will accept donations to. PM me for details

    Loot boxes in fifa deemed illegal by Dutch judge

    I'm afraid it's much more then that. Lootboxes have become a main force in gameindustry revenue. It's very sad to see this industry, of which I was a part of, has become so opportunistic, including WG which is constantly looking to cross the outer boundries of law and chivalry. Being a business is great, 'having to earn money' is fine, but being abrasive and abusive about it is just
  18. This is just 1 example. All 4 DD's dead within 5 minutes. Unnecessary too, attacking Des Moines etc. Weirdest night ever for me. Don't ever play on patchday I guess, because you never know what trolls come crawling out of the woodworks. Haven't seen this much inexplicable behavior from players on 1 single night, including me. It's like people really do not want to win a match, just play for 'fun', which boils down to die and lose? My forehead is red and swollen from facepalming. DD's that almost capped enemy cap and are 30 points away from winning that start shooting an enemy ship and die? Cruisers that sail alone straight into the direction of 2 battleships and a destroyer, and die? 4 battleships that sail into a cap at round start with no other support with a known DD in that location and all 4 die? I'm grinding 1990 ribbons for the most ridiculous skin for Bismark, but once that is over with I will close this game down and ponder my life choices concerning this evening. Why did I want this? I have never seen so much stupidity collected in 1 single game night as tonight, including my own ^^ Guess the mood fits the camo

    Paolo Emilio, Gun boat or Torp boat?

    I love the Paolo, specced it as a gunbote i think. The torp yolo style is so over the top it doesn't need additional speccing. The SAP is quite brutal in knife fights Play it as a Yolo bote Play it as a regular destroyer
  20. I actually have had very little interest in acquiring any of the dockyard ships. They were among the first completely overpriced pieces of ship in this game, when accounting for effort and money. And as I've decided to stop funding the revolting marketing efforts, none of the ships or events is worth any money any more. I'm actually currently grinding for the weird Bismark skin, and I don't know even why. I did find the T61 I'm using for the grind to be a lot of fun, a ship I got some time ago but actually hardly played. I'm actually still pissed off by WG putting the T9 destroyer Benham, which was something that really tickled my interest, behind one of the stupidest kiddy events ever and ridiculous paywall. I didn't get it. F these plonkers. WG's constant efforts to see what they can get away with is absolutely nauseating.

    New Halloween Event - what you can win

    I never liked any of the halloween events. Pass.
  22. Please be sensible and choose health, family and friends over menacing events for worthless virtual goods like these.
  23. I'm so tempted to buy Hayate instead of Smalland. I constantly see Smalland struggle after the first few dd encounters are over, just idle in the back usually unable to do anything meaningfully. But 2M come on!
