Mark those words guys next time you are even thinking of spending money on shiny things that "will be lost in digital oblivion.." Remember this moment, the disregard WG is showing to your face, and how quickly things you spent time and passion can vanish without WG even caring to notice you.. As already said, "vote with your wallets", WG deserve the same treatment Bud Light received...

Exactly this : forums are like a newspaper, you can take a look during a coffee break at work, or just every time you have 5 min to relax and chill. There is NO WAY that forums users are going to log on the fked discord just to check the news, they are likely going to ignore it altogether. This is another sign of WG spitting in the face of his older, trusted community just to cater to the younger players.. But mark my words WG :kids can't afford to spend much, and we will "vote with our wallets". Also a backstab in the dark with a coward 3 days advice. I played Wows since Beta, but never have been disgusted so much by WG behaviour..

The most blatant cheating AI i found in this mode was while using the Duch Cruiser line with airstrikes. The same moment you select the drop area to strike (hidden for the enemy), you see clumsy, slow moving BB starting accelerating at turning at full speed, Cruiser suddenly stopping ( beaming sittings duck for your allies..) etc. Basically AI goes incredible far to avoid any kind of targeted incoming "hidden" strike, even if t it means showing full broadside to your whole team..

Simps are the saddest tragedy of modern society...

Exactly.. all the times that in ranked have to carry and work my as.. off to win that star, while the BBabies just camp and hide, let me think "why even bother.." And sometimes I did it, stopped bothering, just saved my star and let them all lose. . Cause lazy whiners and complainers about "evil CV" don't deserve a free ride from the same classes (CV, torps DD etc..) they despise so much.. As they say, the hate is reciprocal here.

Agreed. For example check KOS and see if you EVER find any DD without SE. Ranked is not KOS competive level, but certain skills are mandatory anyway.

Yes exactly, I got mine from a small random chance and loved it. But until now spending 8000 dubs just for the camo was out of the question.. Nevertheless after mounting this new camo, the old GK became one of my most used ship once more.. So nice camos definitely work to retain player's interest, just turn down the prices WG.

+1 to this Interesting camos are a surprisely nice way to letting you chill and enjoy the game a little more, expecially after you spent so much time playing the same old ship. Recently got the rare "spaceship" Camo form my old GK and rediscovered the pleasure to play it again, even in ranked, just to appreciate the visuals of the new camo.

Signed in this forum since 2012, had played Wow game since Beta and as far as I remember CV were already one of the starting classes since the beginning of the game.. I despise "stealth" classes in any online game, but never had the arrogance of pretending they got removed or others shouldn't play them anyway just because I dislike facing them. Only here snowflakes and whiners really belive the world should move around at they will.. Guess what, it will never happen, so you will have to adapt to the world instead dear snowflake..

If you say so.. I don't need to brag or show anything here, but in competitive scenario i always go for the DD hunting to secure my team victory, and usually it pays off.. had 75% win rate last ranked season and 65% this one. But the point is AA means nothing alone, playing smart makes all the difference, especially in a DD vs CV situation, concealment is your best option.

Exactly, FDR bombs have 5 sec delay, if a DD player cannot WASD within 5 sec it's just trash and exactly like any broadside CL deserve to be punished and learn to maneuver properly. Smart players have plenty of counterplay against any enemy, are just the bad one that can't be bothered to learn and prefer to complain on this forums instead. PS. For the chronicle, that game was a loss because the Yugumo ,( the DD with absolutely 0 AA defence) was a smart player that using his great conceal and smoke carried his team, and there was NO WAY I could catch him off guard... so he stayed alive and won. Just to make the point about what "counterplay" really means, and nope, it's not just AA...

Low tier DD are easy prey, try it out against the "fearsome" Halland in golden ranked instead

It's perfectly fine to play every class you prefer don't worry. It's only this small, vocal community of toxic elitists self centered in their own echo chamber that bashes everyone who disagree with them on this forum. Luckly they don't really matter, WG (wisely) completely ignores them as you should do as well. Playing and having fun since beta and not once in years I missed the "forums advices" here. So do the same and have fun as well in whatever version of the game you'll play

Toxic and vocal forum community as always, there is a reason if most users barely care of posting on forums and just ignore them even since the beta like I do.. Stay in your beloved echo chamber snowflake, and keep complaining to each other... works like a charm

See the other post, it's left mouse click bug, not related only to CV. Happened to me as well when switching to minimap trying to move the CV you have to "unstuck" the left mouse first somehow when this bug happens..

The only remotely more "competitive" (or maybe should say less casual) mode where CV are present it's ranked games. And there, expecially in gold league, you can see sometimes the difference between players who know what they are doing and effectively counter enemy CV ( destroyers closing AA, juggling speed to completely nullify rockets and torps, smart use of islands and smoke etc..). and the potatoes that just keep going on a strait line until they get inevitably killed and then rush here spamming into this topic to complain about "no counterplay" possible. Complaining it's not gonna work, instead learn how CV really works first and then how to effectively counter them, and adapt your gameplay when a CV is present, the same way you do against radars and a lot of enemy DD.

The old "Grey ghost" is no longer OP since rocket and AP bomb dispersion nerf..a real shame actually.. Chkalov may be better at handling pesky DD that go alone, but lack the Pobeda rockets to hit BB hard enough.

Clicking around on minimap or pressing ESC to go back to menu can unstuck, but still not preventing it from happening again later on.. Two times in a row in the same ranked game was enough to call me a quit last night

Having a lot of issues with this bug as well. Expecially in ranked, missing the opportunity to click and shoot a broadside can make all the difference between winning and losing a star. So annoying

It's not our job to "give hope" to potatoes; whoever gives up a game from the startt after checking the MM monitor deserve no simpaty, because it's just ruining anyone else game experience. Reality is that showing your good stats just put a nice target on yourself, expecially against those "easy win" 3 people division warriors, that will just focus the better players of enemy team at the beginning of every battle to assure their victory, as had already been experienced and pointed out by others. This is the sad reality of this game at the he moment , the rest it's just empty words and hypocrisy..

Not only they had a bad influence on players behavior like that, but expecially in ranked (with the saving star mechanic) people abusing MM monitor go for that from the very beginning of the match, running the game experience for anyone else. On the other hand when they can't spy your stats they can wrongly assume you are bad, understimate you, and then have a nasty surprise afterwards.. Hiding stats it's a win win situation for you, expecially to avoid putting a target on your back.

May still be tolerated (for now.. ), but it's undoubtedly unfair and can greatly influence players behavior, expecially in small scale battles like in ranked. I don't think people should abuse it (either in my team or the enemy) so at the moment the only way to prevent that, it's to hide all our stats.

CV may not be optimized, but after rework it's not true that the team with best CV always win, before with RTS they could single handed devstrike a full hp BB, but it's not the case anymore. DD player may dislike it, but it's a good thing that spotting is not exclusive only to them, having your team DD suicide after 5 min it's a loosing game if there is no more spotting available So as always here DD apologists would enjoy farming defenceless BB with no counterplay once enemy DD are sunk. CV prevent that, and give your team a chance to win even if your DD went suicidal after 5 min (a common occurrence those days..)

It's undoubtedly a great advantage to know at the beginning of a 6 player match like in ranked what DD among the 2 kitakaze you are facing who's a purple and who's is just average. Expecially if you have to allocate resources (radar, spotting etc) to counter one of them. Whoever denies that MM monitor isn't an unfair advantage against other players, it's not being honest. There is a reason if that mod/cheat isn't supported and only available in shady ways..
