The daily "gift" in WT came at the expense of the first victory bonus we still have in WoT, WoWp and WoWs. So it's not really a improvement for WT players (I played when this was changed and it killed a more reliable way to get a daily advancement on a tank or plane), next to this these bonusses are mostly geared towards their equivalent of "free xp convertable for gold" currency (a.k.a. money grab move).

Saw one last evening, was a long time ago that I saw one. The player didn't have a very good game though, ran to far ahead of the pack and got punished for it... Ah well, we all got our bad games. Managed to kill a full HP Kongo with 2x Arkansas beta though and win the game, so good fun

I think he simply means that having information about other players which is not intended by the developer is a "cheat". For me not having XVM is a plus for the community, everything we can do to minimize toxicity is helpful.

See my earlier post about perception. I only relate my observations, as you can see I don't make any conclussions. Facts are what they are, even when this is a small sample size, this is what happened to us last night.

Last night I played some battles with a friend (2 man division), we saw some really unbalanced matchmaking all along. Mostly what seems to happen is that the other team gets at least 1 top tier ship more and often more destroyers or (top tier) batlleships. This was for tier 6 and 7.

No more premium ships and bundles, just make more ship lines and nations and stop this premium ship bias!

Most annoying as pointed out is that you can't see your own smokescreen when you are in it, no way of telling if you are concealed or not (apart from the skill going off). It would be nice to distinguish between the type of smoke generators to have different colors!

Fair enough, the feeling that something is amiss can also without proof destroy a game. Since I think this game is on the verge of collapsing / making it I would like WG to take steps and keep us informed as how things work, what they are planning to do with it and if something is just currently broken.

I don't fully agree with you, when your suggestion is implemented you could use this to always be "top tier" with at least 1 ship in your division. This is also not how it should work, also as long as WG don't limit tier spread in divisions (should be max 1 imho) there is no such thing as "troll divisions" (although you can question the common sense of the people making +3 tier difference divisions).

It's just the same poor implementation as in WoT. When you can add/detract perpeption points from someone without any form of validation by a 3rd party (i.e. WG), than this value is a meager representation of your real behaviour ingame. Just read into how the system is abused in WoT to have players autobanned and see if you would like something similair here...

I do agree, but there are numerous topics about this, try and use one of these so we can concentrate our effort in bringing this to WG's attention.

Too many times in my Colorado being the top tier BB on my team vs 2 or 3 tier 8 battleships destroys the fun quite fast. "Running" (it's the Colorado ) all game and nipping some damage here and there is not exactly fun. Somewhat more balancing in this regard would be appreciated.

I think in general the matchmaking is just rubish at balancing the tiers between the 2 teams, and yes it seems worse when divisions are involved (not perse when you are in a division). Also "balacing" by tier is quite flawed in itself as you can get a mix of the 3 ship classes where there is no balance anymore between the teams, for instance 3 top tier BB's vs 2 top tier CA/CL and 1 top tier DD.

It could still be 45% here, as you can have a negative impact on the game if you are not pulling your weight in each battle. But under 45% I would say that it's rather statistical (i.e. nothing you did contributed to the winrate).

I agree, but it makes your case to support flawless . In a worst case scenario it's not even software related, graphic cards get a lot of heat and will die eventually.

1. Don't install Geforce Experience, only the driver + physics (as long as you can get these separated). You can just click the "clean install" option in the driver setup. 2. Make sure your system is not overclocked (either CPU or GPU). 3. No mods (I know you don't run any). 4. Reinstall the client. If you still have problems after that, contact support. Good luck with your troubleshooting!

Spotting is working as intended, I would like it however to change some rules. For instance, when you shoot your guns you are visible, invisifire is not working with the current models (IMHO). TheJezna have a +1 from me, nice post.

As Quickybaby (WoT) says: the only constant factor in the games you play, is you... So try and improve yourself, and well sometimes you are just powerless to do anything, Ships happen.

Respect guys, I think you made some meaningfull responses, at least I think you did... don't really understand the OP

I say also 5. From tier 8 and up the ships get very much more powerfull so tier 6 and 7 are in serious trouble most of the time when being bottom tiered. This does depend on ship class and nation ofcourse, but this is my general feeling. Overall I would prefer a max of +/- 1 tier spread, much more fun to be had in these kind of situations for all involved.

A lot of mismatching in number of destroyers and tiers going on in the MM on all tiers. I also suspect that divisions are the reason for this, although in most cases the MM could easily have prevented this. In case of the OP, the 2 CA's from his team (Mikhails) could have been switched for the 2 DD's (Benson) from the other team. This would have made a more balanced playing field. My overall feeling is that the matchmaking is very lazily programmed and should take ship type more in account (as per the design of paper/rock/scissors).

Just did it one time, so I can say I'm a secret Santa too

I agree, tried to knifefight with my Colorado against another Colorado. 2 full salvo's (but fired as ripple fire not as salvo) towards his broadside and of a total of 16 shells, 0 hits. I was aiming at his waterline and we were below 5km from each other. He and his friend fried me with HE, but that's another story . I agree with dispersion needing to be a linear line with increasing dispersion per distance. I'm also bugged by the RNG behaviour of everything in the game: Let me explain: I get hit by a BB in my BB from let's say 14 km, I'm angled and I receive a total of 2k damage from this. Next salvo with the same distance and angling will hit me for 15k+ damage.., how? Armor should behave the same in roughly the same conditions and not this wild behaviour, not even WoT is this inconsistent when it comes to armor. Let skill be the dividing factor not sheer luck. Well just my 2 cents.

Do nothing, just let it go. Sometimes it's a mistake, sometimes it isn't. In first case most of the times they will explain themselves and apologize, in the second case they might be trolling and giving them a voice will help them.

Visited the premium shop, saw the "bargain" and decided to get Fallout 4 for less money... to bad WG another missed opportunity to get some of my €'s.
