Behold the solution:

The one WG hopes to do with the people who can't do math. It starts with dubloons. The very second you get them, the feeble minded don't recognize anymore that it is money and spend it accordingly - and it doesn't end there. One would guess basic common sense should be enough to be immune to this bovine excrement, but unfortunately intelligence also follows a gaussian distribution and apparently too many wade the shallow end on the left that this apparently works.

Exceptional, but still within statistical variance.

Yes, one CV is played by you, the other by @DiceTea and there is literally nothing the team can do to make a difference.

I rather like airship mode, better than arms race anyway.

I appreciate the sentiment. Not even going to comment on the supershit you used.

Free exp you can get as much as you play (and/or have and/or pay for flags). Coal gain is limited by missions. RB ships are different to free exp ship in only one regard - they have a much higher cost in either in free exp or sanity, not the least because of that 2x timer. Depending on the resource you have available and the desire to posess these ships, I'd choose free exp now or wait until they're obtainable by coal. And as these ships now compete with RB choices and coal ships, there is little reason to get one - apart from the fact that compared to RB ships they're dirt cheap - but why play Azuma over... Colbert? This is not like cars, where a cheap car also has four wheels and can get you from A to B just like a expensive super sports car, this is about the fun you have playing them. While one can argue that going to the grocery with a super sports car is more fun - you don't have to use an unfun ship at all. So I'd personally abstain from future port queens, unless ofc you have everything else already. Caveat: If you enjoy the long range CA sniping and don't mind your team loathing you or you need a brawl capable gunboat DD at tier 9, it's different.

@Seraphice Here, have a look at the 10:35 mark. Lock was lost again. It happened in between ever so often when I play these continuous stream of shells type ships. 20230214_212256_PFSC510-Colbert_46_Estuary.wowsreplay

None. Also, Azuma is the new crap tier 9 with supershits in the game, so double no in this case. caveat: unless it's your gameplay and the ships just click with you. If you want a ship for yamamoto, go with Yamato.

It's only about your claim of realism - not talking about WGs design choices and the creative interpretation of submarines turned into a gameplay of submersible scum with fantasy pings, homing torps, 30 knots submerged speed without influence on concealment and so on, just to bring us a 'fun and engaging' interaction, just like CVs crapping on our head with impunity. That derp charges dropped by planes spawned out of my ships [edited] shouldn't damage other ships is a rather obvious design choice to cushion the multiple design failures that led up to it.

Damaging your own destroyer was easily possible when you were too slow and/or the depth charge set at a shallow depth. @Karasu_Browarszky didn't you post the image with the DD that had blown off his own stern?

Hah, yes, surely. It's like slaves talking about their owner which one whips them least - The good master. He only whips you when you deserve it, say because you spilt his tea. Thank you Sir, for showing me the error of my ways! You're mistaken in your assumption. They're addicted to my money, I'm not addicted to their content. Just vote with your feet. Say, EA or Ubisoft, I personally made the decision that they can go themselves with a cactus for all I care, I just don't buy that , no matter the carrot they're dangling in front of my nose. I just don't and I am perfectly happy with that. It's not even a money issue - it's my lack of stupidity that prevents me from getting screwed over sideways. And what will I do, when everyone tries these [edited] moves? Well, I wanted to take up sport shooting for quite a while now, maybe I'll do that?

The words you're looking for are "a little less bad" or "almost as scummy". If you would, say, compare the worlds worst surgeons, you wouldn't claim one is "good" because he uses a clean scalpell, either.

That seems to be well within his competence.

We shouldn't really advertise Druid too much. a) I see to many of them anyway b) it is still highly special interest and doesn't click with everyone. It's not weak (or I have become way better than I give myself credit for) and certainly not as weak as @FloatingTarget makes it out to be - the skill floor isn't probably as low as, say, high concealment torpedoboats - and I fear that's the main issue here. But tbh, I'd take any buff proposed. I feel I deserve to crap on everyone just like CVs.

Since last patch, the player names on the red side don't show up in the list in replays, for whatever reason. But you can still see the names above the ships. I don't run mods anymore (since aslain requires a torrent client). Can anyone confirm? Yeah, pretty scary to be more wrong than WG, innit?

Or if you value your sanity.

20 seconds turret traverse.... man I loathe DDs that can outturn their guns.

10 games lost in a row happen to the best of us. 100? 1000? 10 000? Nope. If you are good, you will win more on average. This is statistics. Yes, some things are bad with the win rate, there is no moving average filter, so games from 5 years ago still count and so, so what to do to determine someones skill is to look for solo tier 10 games with a minimum of 100 games played (if available).

I fear it's a kettle/pot issue. So, how about you post a replay?
