That was just PTS so players can't get it ( or so it seems... ).

WoWs uses a Dx9 version of BigWorld engine so Dx11 max shouldn't affect it much @OP your graphics solutions ( both ) are terrible in that laptop sorry -> http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-HD-5500-Mobile-095-GHz-vs-AMD-Radeon-HD-8500M/m16570vsm21969 It's also a strange combo to see as that igpu normally makes it so system builders don't actually put in a dedicated card unless it's needed and that always entails actually better one's compared with the igpu. Min requirement for WoWs is a 7770 which was a mid range gaming card. Your 8500m doesn't even come close. Maybe it will run, but that's about it I guess.

Yup. Since opening posts contains .. which despite the broken English does seem to mention a 'pc rig', I don't think this is a laptop. I mean, a 'pig rig' is still a rig, and a rig is a desktop/tower not a laptop Anyway, since his intergrated is probably disabled anyway all the other info and links probably won't help. I would ask OP to run a dxdiag and attach the result file to a post so we can see his system details.

Not sure haven't seen it since the new update, also first time I hear this same occurrence can happen due to the quick command menu, got any references/other mentions?

Be happy you could still shoot your guns in 3rd person view, I had my game decide my mouse was only functional for turning my guns not actually fire them Was probably a desync on my game ( it's known to cause issues using your guns ). Not sure what happened in yours, sounds like game just decided you been seal clubbing to much in Neptune and needed to get balanced a bit

^^ There is no underwater topology except the shores of islands ( it's not needed right ). Also, yeah, gameplay wise: IT DOESN'T FIT THE GAMEPLAY. If you need more info -> You'd have a class with either super stealth but no speed ( submerged ) or no survivability at all. If you want a game with subs, go play Steel Ocean. Then come back and tell us how great it is.

As @atomskyttenalready said: the problem with the ship is the mixed main battery. WG doesn't want to put that into the game, it would be problematic to balance. edit: the model looks nice in the screenshots though :) Can you make a render of your model and post that?

Quoted to emphasize: SUBS DON'T FIT THE GAMEPLAY PERIOD.

Yeah if they wanted to keep true to the line they would have done something to the penetration of the ap on angled targets ( which is absolutely crap ).

That was only because they could sell the original ( as intended ) Scharnhorst with the real gun arrangement, and put a silver 'what if it gone through' upgrade in the tech tree. There is no such option with Nelson and Rodney, hence Rodney will be the premium.

Wew this opens up so many opportunities for some jokes man..... You know I like you (r posts), but you have a 49% win rate in ranked, you're reaching rank 1 due to spamming battle button not due to playing well. Sorry to say, but that is the reason I don't play ranked. It's not worth it, a mode called 'competitive' when it's not even skill based. I still <3 you as a person though edit: Before making double post: I had wows-stats running on second or third screen for quite some time, but I stopped because it didn't really make me play better. Knowing someone on the enemy team is good is nice, allows some better prediction, but I'm just the kind of guy which plays 'his best' when he's following his guts ( sometimes also my mind.. ). Though when I die, and I'm in chat, and someone is giving mouth or playing like an idiot and giving mouth I do look them up. And throw their stats at their face when applicable ( which is more often than not ). I also absolutely detest people on the forum with hidden profiles, and then they try to be active in balance discussions

This. Rodney is almost a given, since she took part of the most famous ship action ( for most Europeans that is ) during the war. You mean you think WG isn't selling premiums 'with a little extra' knowingly for some time now? Rodney with RN CL heal would just mean more people like this ->

I seen it done before, but those where on 76mm+ ( the 4hp variants ). I'm not sure, I did read that this engine is also tolerable in the amount of backpressure it get's from the exhaust but it was indeed needed to allow some of the pressure to escape above the water. This will take away some of the trottle response but it shouldn't impact torque when the rpm is good. Also, this inflatable weighs nothing, even the 30lbs was almost sufficient in speed for what I'd like. If I wanted a faster boat I should have gone with the Intex Mariner which has a alu floor ( semi rigid ) and which takes a heavier engine. The Excursion is bigger and takes more weight but comes without the option for a factory rigid floor. It's possible to put in a floor yourself though, plenty of video's on youtube about custom Intex Excursion fishing boats. Sadly I can't find much footage of the engine, with none in combination with this boat, and even if I could it's impossible to judge noisiness based on a video. Someone I talked to told me I'm probably worried about nothing, as I am likely imagining the noise to be comparable with a 2 stroke. and that the engine doesn't make any more noise than let's say a lawn mower. Most weed wackers run 8k rpm or so, this run's lower rpm's ( probably different carb mounted ) and that might make a shitton of difference ( maybe not even as much in decibel but certainly in pitch ). Edit: these are the factory muffler -> https://www.alibaba.com/showroom/gx35-muffler.html

I took Umikaze into tier 8 and came top of team more then once before they nerved the torpedo speed on it ( and later they made troll divisions impossible which is a good thing ). Umikaze was the exception though, concealment and torps which hurt anything it hits, fast reload on them and the torps had enough range. The only thing which made it less capable as other DD's higher tiers at being a torpedo platform was the speed ( which it lacks greatly ). Anyone who knew where I was could corner me or push me away if they knew what they were doing. And don't even think about fighting other DD's. But if you had a good division which could keep enemy DD's from killing you, an Umikaze could get amazing results ( and it was to kill high tiers with a tier II destroyer ). Anyway, destroyers are probably the most impacting class, certainly in domination ( even above CV, though in randoms a CV will have higher impact ). @cicciolorenzlisted their advantages/task/abilities nicely.

There was a requirement for games played in Alpha stage, and while I was initially accepted during Alpha I didn't even knew it ( my email is redirected to my current one, but they aren't shown in my inbox just my pop3 box which I don't check often ). So not enough games -> not eligible. Same as with Arkansas for Beta testers, you will find BETA testers without the BETA test reward ship.

BBaby.

True, the situation I was describing ofc happened in training rooms. If you did it on live, I expect even WG would be able to program something which detects this ( like, treating any collision which last longer then 30 seconds as intentional griefing? ).

Not from your profile, because you think that would make you susceptible for 'abuse' or something, right. But ye, it's the DD's which need to be addressed right? Lol. Keep ur hidden profile, it fits your other 'opinions'. Your hidden profile doesn't irritate me, it just makes me ignore your posts from now on, or laugh at them, or laugh at them and then ignore them. Hidden profile people in balance discussions are the lowest form of life.

Distance only matters because it takes more time, it doesn't change the fact that allied collision model allows pushing lighter vessels without them being able to do much ( when pushed by multiple people preventing them from 'sliding off' ). The only thing which would fully alleviate this would be treating any collision as a blue on red.

The success off the KoTS series ( casting) , even while WG hasn't done anything to allow proper casting and spectating, proofs him wrong imo. Then again, Ev1n is actually a smart guy and he knows better what he talks about then I do I guess, so it's probably just my wishful thinking :)

Sadly I can't post images, but I can tell you from rigorous testing that a couple of Haku's ( or GK's and even simple Yamato's ) can push any ship anywhere they want

Announcements can be harmless (drunk ) banter. And yeah, there is ALWAYS the need for tangible evidence in discussions like these, as speculation just leads to nothing.

You with your 'private stats' and crying that BB's are fine and it's the shear amount of DD's which are 'an issue' is exactly what is wrong with hiding your profile. Makes it very suspect that you play a shitton of BB's, and not much if any DD's. It also hints to being observationally limited, as everyone and their dog actually can check server stats and come to the conclusion there is no DD infestation, not even at higher tiers. not now and not at the 24th of this month. Profiles are not here to bash people, they are here to show one's experience, how much weight one can put on someone words regarding balance. If you're a 4x% potato, your opinion is likely invalid due to not understanding actual game mechanics, if you're above but play only the 'other' class you can't have an unbiased reference point so your opinion should be treated as such. And yes, if you're a 6x+ player who plays all classes, I will take much higher note to your opinion. If that makes you feel insecure, that's not my problem.

Yeah the fixed repair costs thingie didn't help as much as we hoped... people still afraid to scratch their paint even when nothing can be gained from continuing to play passive/defensive.

Need replay though before it 'smells fishy' as I seen way to many salt induced whines about rigging to take anything serious without a replay. And even with a replay, some people think clans rig because they yolo rush last remaining enemy ship and fail..... Also @OP As Conway has said previously, there is nothing in the EULA which prevents timing the queue. Since it doesn't break any rules there, the only way when it would be 'rigging' is when actions in game depict these rigging actions.
