This? This is not preventing a steamroll, it's just drawing out the inevitable and prolonging the atrocious experience for everyone involved. This is insulting my intellectual feelings. Seriously.

This is exactly right, but I seriously question your ability to a) know the path b) explain the path and c) make a coherent statement regarding this. On the other hand one can argue anyone who actually listens to your ramblings only has himself to blame. @tonschk get out as fast as your motion allows....

Yes. Not true, steamrolls suck, even when winning. But yeah, it almost made me smile.

I even believe @Seraphice this being a balancing factor and being kept, because it worked and I personally wouldn't tie a purchase decision to a citadel damage heal percentage and I certainly don't care about the new tier 9. The issue here is "not making it obvious". Just like the third iteration of battlepass, it can't be so hard to add a line in red, saying "free demounts are no longer included". And seriously, when you up your communication like this, the simple solution is to offer a free refund and I bet you, most of the buyers are committed, grumble a bit and keep the thing. And you're looking good. Or you could cite technicalities and look like.... not good. PR is a job, you can hire competent people for it. Someone with this history of communication desasters would be well advised to do so. I mean, it's a multi million € company, not some small time game developer where the job of communication gets assigned to a random player for a song or the boss does it himself.

oh. Man, don't get me wrong, but... why don't you play ships you're good in? Say Kremlin? That seems to suit you fine.

You surely need a different playstyle for randoms, because just mashing your face on the W key is not going to cut it - which it does in coop. Also the bots in tier 10 randoms show way more broadside than the coop bots ever can.

When did you last play radar minotaur? And how would you rate your success with radar minotaur so far? And... is that enjoyable?

Man, whatever floats your boat. If you enjoy that crap, by all means, go for it - just be advised that once you've learned to press the W key, there is little else that is applicable to randoms in a later stage when coop suddenly starts to get boring.

By gimping the gun reload. Also, you only have radar and no option to choose smoke - a) everyone expects the radar and b) the amount of competent players who can manage to survive with a CL is sorely limited. If I were you, I'd look elsewhere for quite a while. It's not going to be fun for you nor for your team unless you use it exclusively in coop.

That is applicable basically anywhere I look.

Getting uptiered was always, apart from a few ships which didn't really care about tiers like torp DDs. The issue is that supershits simply have more influence on the outcome of the battle and because the utter trash monkeys are usually on my side. And if not, it's also annoying to lose against such a trash monkey, just because he has the better ship. And it doesn't even feel good if you win. That is why I only play tier 10 and mostly in game modes without supershits. @Seanld1_1 ... well, you just found out why tier 9 is the new crap tier for those who enjoy saying thank you after getting slapped. Just don't play it. Or just suffer through, if you have to.

Ok, I'm confused - is that supposed to mean it's good? FYI, I've threatened my wife with divorce if I ever have to build Ikea again, they used to be ok'ish quality for the price some 15 years ago but then some pullunder wearing economics major deceided to squeeze the last drop out of the reputation. But don't worry, once the customers realize this and vote with their feet, the pullunder guy is already with a new company, let go with a bonus, again "fixing" their cash flow forever. Must be the same guy that deceided omitting service for the commuter trains is much cheaper here in Berlin.

You are balanced nourishment - the supershits can't always fight for their food, they also need to snack someone in between.

Competence issue is my guess. New players overextend in close range battleships rather easy and the worst of them show broadside to "muh use all the guns". Since these ships are rather dangerous when they get close to you and everyone is easy food if they show broadside - they get murdered first. Also focussing an overextending BB in the first minutes of the game can be a decisive advantage. So, don't make the mistake I did, don't play brawler BBs first, it's very hard to learn when to push and when not.

I want the ASW planes, as I can throw them into enemy spotting fighter planes. Spotting fighter planes are utterly idiotic in the first place - but then, so is this solution.

We're simply trying things out with our sausage, let's see what happens when we change gristle for sawdust! In your case there is actually no difference in value between gristle, sawdust or actual meat, apart from artificial scarcity to keep up the illusion of "value". To be honest, I probably wouldn't have checked the small print again, I would have assumed it's about the same as before. I personally can't care less about free module switch, it's just the kind of message you send to your customers any PR department might wish to avoid. And if you really, really have to, because the beancounters almost broke into a fistfight with psycholgical warfare at lunch, add at least a huge warning "Please be advised that this iteration of battlepass doesn't feature XYZ as it used to" And even then you would still get people with questionable competence complaining about this, but then some people are beyond help. But it's still bad PR if/when they complain, no matter how stupid they are.

Wait, where is the gif with the car!? Come on, that was a possible explanation, wasn't it?

Ok, how do I explain this politely. There is certainly a benefit to make-up. Women try to apperar more enticing, that's an advantage in the great propagation competition. If you have never been the target of such considerations is surely an oversight on their part.

... srsly, how does this even work? Ok, they're partly on top (or inside) the casemate armor... but not the topmost turret, he's floating freely inside the superstructure....

So you can "citadel" or detonate the thing hitting the lightly armored upper handling room?

Which class could that be? Let me check my last games: 1: 6BB, 3CA, 3DD 1: CV, 6BB, 4CA, DD 2: 5BB, 3CA, 4DD 3: 4BB, 6CA, 2DD 4: CV, 6BB, 4CA, DD 5: 5BB, 4CA, 3DD Yeah, a culling is really necessary. If only submarines would be even better against BBs, that would be great. But we know all the good customers just love to roll their face on the keyboard playing BB, so WG won't touch the BBabies. Guess why CW puts a limit on BBs? Concerning your divination skills: Currently I play Gibraltar, after I played a lot of Colbert and before that Druid with over a thousand games. But I won't deny that I have 700+ games on Shikishima alone - I really don't have a favourite class.

Ok, let's see if my powers of divination still work.... you are... a... BB main? And ... you aren't... really good at being a BB main? Does that sound about right?

Buying stuff with what you have and some free exp lead to 0 exp on the ship. That's really the only reasonable explanation left unless spaghetti code.
