if you want to play against tier 8 bots, play coop. Or operations.

Battle Pass rewards used to be an ok'ish value for the dubs, even more if you got a good chunk of the overflow rewards. Just look at the sheer amount of trash port queens you can aquire for dubs, so basically you're almost always better off getting a battle pass instead. Now they realized they offered too good value for dubs in their eyes and try to stop bleeding "valueable items"

If you AFK during a battle, you receive zero exp. Alt tabbing for an extended time while on auto pilot is sufficient for that. I don't receive warning popups as I loathe popups with a passion and disabled them in the windows OS - maybe you, too?

It is certainly chinese whale milk they're harvesting here, I guess the european herd is not the main target of this obvious tickling of the national pride "must buy" ship scheme.

You should have put that point up front, then I wouldn't have read all the stuff up to that. Tier 9 is for people who enjoy saying "thank you" after getting slapped...

Not an expert, but it seems to me that you have anger management issues on top of your skill issues.

Changing ingredients to cheaper ones is a tried and true method of anyone selling actual stuff - but really, it doesn't cost you a single cent! Or are these module demounts such a huge sink for dubloons that your bean counter department noticed? I can really imagine the talk they had with the psychological warfare department...

Light cruisers are the bane of WoWs. They MUST be nerfed, good AA and immunity to CVs should come at a price.

Yeah, can't wait for the masses of long range damage farmers, all being entirely useless the whole match but coming up on top of the scoreboard - on the losing side, of course. We will have 6 vs 6 hindenburg games, every single one of them humping the border. And there is no fixing this, as WG doesn't touch exp for some reason, apart from overcompensating for playing toxic like supershits and submarines.

Yes, I'm all for giving CVs a reasonable controls and at the same time slap them with a nerfhammer in the face untill the teeth are flying instead of airplanes. Because even with crap controls CVs are OP (unless facerollers play them, but don't worry, the zero skill Malta brigade usually doesn't play red.)

@Animalul2012 and @WingedHussar_Adler although the later disjoined early on after getting hydroed in an inconvenient spot. 20230119_222658_PGSC506-Admiral-Graf-Spee_13_OC_new_dawn.wowsreplay Edit: why did you hate me so much....?

I thought that you said that you suck and you can't abide getting flamed for it. Very understandable, you have 26 games in randoms total. What on earth makes you think you posess the competence to play a T10 in randoms? The 6000 Coop games are very much worthless as far as experience goes. Basically yes. Reasons are: If you can't make it in randoms - well, it's a reward, not a gift. Admittedly, one where you got played by WG psychological warfare monetization department. But don't worry, comrade, WG got you covered, you can just throw dubs on the skill issue.... So, I really don't mind that you play mind boggling numb coop - if that's your thing, well, whatever floats your boat. But complaining that you don't get the same rewards is... a bit entitled? By the way, I certainly understand fraying patience with totally clueless T10 players. It's a team game, after all - you don't sign up for a rugby match without a clue either, a) you get punched in the face and b) you are a liablility to your team and c) they... dislike you for it. And incdentally experience in Super Mario Rugby doesn't really count. If you want to git gud, start at tier IV or so, where the gimmicks aren't overwhelming and work up from there, once you got the gist. All that Coop experience is more of a hindrance than anything when all of a sudden the enemy actually (instead of accidentally) tries to kill you.

a) you can turn off the chat completely b) you could git gud c) you could do both Let's face it, if you're so bad that you won't survive in randoms, I really don't see what any reward ship gives you. But certainly, in WoW there were also different items fow PvE and PvP players. I wouldn't go that far, but maybe they could introduce game mode locked ships. Say, if you make it in randoms, you can use it anywhere, if you cheese it in coop, it's locked in coop only. (untill WG gets the brilliant idea to unlock it for a small amount of 10 000 dubs)

Smooth in the replay.

Tiger '59?

Just yesterday I had a mino move like he's in a disco with a really really slow strobe light flashing - I thought it was similar to these chinese CV players where the rockets deal damage just as the machine gun start firing, apparently due a fax link in between somewhere. Going to check the replay if it still shows later, if yes, I'll post it here

I'm not losing money on T10, not even when I play tech tree ships which is rare enough, unless I overdose on flags. But I rather cut down on my flag abuse than playing ships that are as enjoyable as punching yourself repeatedly in the face. Some T9 ships are great, don't get me wrong, but most... just ain't. And then supershits.

What you save on T9 ships, you spend on lube in the long run - unless it's a T9 only game mode. I'd steer clear of that.

All dutch captains (groningen) get improved demolition expert with a 1.5% chance, the european one (friesland) gets improved adrenaline rush and a bonus for torpedo hits. https://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Special_Commanders IIRC there is also a non unique captain for the dutch, which also gets the +1,5% demolition expert. Sherman gets Halsey. But if you proc his superpower, hiding in smoke is getting questionable because it is positively easy to pinpoint your location for semi-blind fire.

Tiger '59 is a support ship that also features guns. The most accurate guns in the game, to be exact, and that's probably part of the issue as damage dealing is entirely skill dependant where even a potato can hit stuff when the dispersion works in his favour - this ship tells you your mistakes you make with aiming. Still, even if you hit, the damage output is anemic at best, the hydro is sorely missing in the box of gimmicks - use it to train your Minotaur aiming skills. I rather like it, although I prefer Tier 10 ships. Long talk, yes, it could do with a buff or three, but it' not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. And it's still fun, but then, I love Gibraltar, so... YMMV

Incidentally it's almost like randoms. The ability you need is to carry anyway and overcome the potatos. The only gamemode where you don't have to care just how harebrained your teammates is Coop, no matter your own skill level.

With an arguably better special captain for it, enhancing fire chance even further.

Depends on what I have available. Simple, eh?

Groningen does ok, but shortly afterward I got Sherman and I never looked back. Yeah, that's the issue, if it's your boat, it certainly is worth it, but you don't know untill you spent the money. As I love(d) TRB yugumo and loathed shima, I probably not ok with the concealment, so I'll pass, I guess....
