The bots cheat, they all have WallHack™ Radio Location, but you don't see that you're being tracked!!! No, without trolling: the bots seem to have the perk as they indeed DO chase you even when you're not spotted. And they change course if you do, so yeah they do 'know' and that's fine as it's an existing in game cheat skill. But then also show players they are being RL tracked, it would hurt no one and add to the ' realism ' somewhat

The answer was right above your post. Also a big part of it is my not having as much enjoyment while playing the game as I did before. I'm still hoping this will return, as I've invested to much in the game already to be totally put off by it. That, coupled with other people also telling me they are no longer motivated. I can not do it alone.

And who get's credited with the damage? Sounds like to open to abuse. Just like any 'zone which does damage', since you can push and keep allies in spots they don't want to be.

^^ Except from the immersion breaking experience of seeing ships move in very awkward ways it's not really an issue any more. Sure it can be tricky to learn, but shooting border surfers, as long as you know their actual speed and thus how the border is interacting with them ( helps if you have torps so you can check the lead indicator... ) is easier then shooting ships which are sailing in the open and can actually dodge.

Despite my tag, I wasn't eligible to receive Iwaki... I been bugging Tuccy for one for a long time... Anyway, yeah Iwaki is a big DD with those torps. and having Aiming System 0 mod on it, Yubari or even Katori ( though that has lower rof as well ) will basically turn into a Kuma in terms of effective DPS. You have less gun's but you should hit more often...

Uhm no not at all. There are more maps with TO MUCH open space then there are to many open maps ffs. Unless you're a BBaby that is.

Stick to coop, it suits you better.

Did you lick enough windows today? If not, Gene might kick us out of the clan for failing to reach the quota

The funny thing about people saying battleships / meta is fine is they usually like playing mostly battleships. Unlike those who say they aren't 'fine', those tend to play all classes are 100% unbiased and are clearly in possession of a superior intellect allowing them to better analyze.. ow wait I'm getting carried away aren't I ...

Oops.... Well the 12km's are the best one's, F3's range is just not cutting it with all the radar hydro and planes around. But don't ask me for tips how to play shima, I'm not a baddy in DD's at all but my Shima is my nemesis, low 40% win rate

Ow yeah totally forgot to explicitly mention that indeed, the Taco is the best armored cruiser at the tier, and if you aren't facing to many BBabies you can play very agressive with it and get away with it.

Ow, and here I was thinking you're a BB player... @OP The reason that your torps are spotted so early is because you're using the stock 20km noobtubes. WG nerved those so hard they are useless, they should just be removed from the game entirely. As was said earlier, wait with judgement at least till you get the 12km one's.

I didn't do that bad with the old unbuffed Furutaka Though yeah. back when it was either a Kuma or a Phoenix, no one would use the Phoenix unless they wanted a bit of a challenge. At tier 5 the roles were reversed, and Omaha stomped all over Furutaka. And ofc, Murmansk stomped Omaha, silly Murican's not making glorious Socialist Stronk Ship with Stalinium™ AP Though yeah new gun setup basically turns it into an Aoba proto... And Omaha has suffered from power creep with the new cruiser lines. Kuma on tier 4 will probably remain one of the most fun ( = good at evasion tanking ) cruiser in the low tiers... until it meets Nikolai ofc then it's just food.

@Teob_VGthat is the same as I was trying to point out. The omni dd was right, the spot was very high risk and most would probably not been able to make it work. But I did, reasonably well. Came top of that team, could have done a lot better with some smoke though... My BB rambling was to illustrate that in every situation someone will have some idea not shared by the other guy.

Where they in battleships? Ok, seriously, of course you can't be really sure. I mean I know I been mad at people and 'yelling' at them for not supporting me, only to find out the guy was in OMNI ( didn't want to smoke me at the island between a-b in Islands off Ice domination, which is a good position for me since I could radar both... he said I was to bad to support I am pretty sure I kept a screenshot of the team ranking in that game ). Still, if they are in a battleship are totally out off position and have been the entire game... ( you know, those people who complain "you weren't here you don't know what happened" ... yeah I was there, I got a minimap, I tend to watch it every couple of seconds at least. You should try it, it might help ).

I read the same message being posted yesterday ( more than once )?

Well since the 'camping' is actually more tactical ( if you go in front of the others you just get focused ) then just being 'wrong' it can only be changed if everyone plays more aggressive. If any single person does it without the others playing more aggressive as well, he just goes back to port quicker. You do have fun games at higher tiers, but the buildup can take longer.

Usually they just go play Bingo...... ( cue someone posting an image in 3 - 2 - 1 ... )

Was your 'make new topic' button stuck? Secondly, high tier games are always like that, hence why some don't really enjoy them. It's because a> mistakes are punished harder b> mistakes are usually seen quicker c> it sucks when you make a mistake.

Why don't you just remove your account here, it's not like anything you're going to say ever will be even considered to be worth reading. People been explaining FACTS to you, about you, your performance, the understanding of the game which that performance displays and your inconsistent 'anecdotal evidence'. After that you're going to insult people who are trying to help you and all other uninformed poor souls out there... that is so sad.

If you want people to read your text, avoid using big fonts and caps as they are quite distracting..

No, that is what stranger123 suggested after the testing phase with OMNI, and that would be fine/great! What WG wanted to do would also screw offensive smoke for DD's.

Yeah so you want EVERY destroyer to turn into a VMF gunboat? Fine with me, I like how they play. If you never use offensive smoke, you're doing it wrong.

I'm getting a bit tired of your insults, they are more tiresome than your failure to understand. It's pretty simple, you were arguing that smoke isn't really needed to have good games, and you used a Leningrad as example. Which is fine. But Leningrad is not example of average DD, it's very fast, low profile and so very hard to hit. That is why it works without smoke right? So do now understand why using the Leni in your example is ludicrous?

So, arguing that DD's don't need smoke and using the best evasion tanker in the game ( almost same speed as Khaba but more range... ).... stupid you said?
