  1. Your one additional sale might not weigh in heavy enough to offset those who paid for it earlier and have the ship they bought with hard earned real money changed negatively. It would feel like buying a 200mph car only to be told after the 15k service that they limited the engine power electronically so it now only does 160mph. There is solid business decisions and solid business decisions Also, hands of my Gremmy
  2. As far as we know it won't be coming back in the store. Instead you can buy the Anshan

    Audio Warning for Planes

    I happen to know one off the better carrier players and I think I'm not that far off the mark when I claim he sees ( especially the long and not as nimble IJN ) DD's as 'food' most of the time..

    Do you feel you 'deserved' to be sunk for not keeping track of the planes on the minimap? @OP, I think my answer will be the same as above.

    Some interesting info around the world

    We ( I ) did, but only when talking about 'initial' numbers when the line was just released ;) Which is when the metrics will be skewed towards the better players for the initial duration for them to grind through the line ( keeping the one's they like the most ). But yes, the Russian tanks are the most easy to play, pike nose = point to enemy and you can do no more. All other tanks with flat surfaces rely on artificial angling. But while this means they are noob friendly, it also limits the skill ceiling. I enjoy my GE tanks a lot more, and I do better in them then my Russian one's. Just as I like my German CA's here and do really well in them

    Suggestion: Last Man Standing Mode

    I feel the same, I mean constructive criticism is only possible on constructive ideas but this just isn't ... it isn't. And this is the first and most obvious reason. OP wan't to forego concealment.... Which isn't even RIP DD's, but RIP stealth firing ( Zao want's to say hi, just as many other ships which rely on this mechanic intrinsic to gameplay ). Most of the game can be played based on concealment, it's one of the few mechanics which actually allows tactics. I think OP is better off going to some other game, probably a twitch based shooter, if this is his best suggestion for WoWs.

    Win rate is around skill, given enough sample size. Average XP is based on skill and ship tier and class/gamemode combination. Average damage is tied with Win Rate, some games are won due to attrition of hitpoints, doing more then average damage results in more wins in these games. Other games are won by tactical insight, I recon this falls under 'skill' as well. Battles fought is only an indication of if someone has a life outside of his PC, no skill involved in playing lots of games. Good days and bad days, yeah all fine and dandy, the more skill you got the more good days you will have, the less skill the more bad days. I agree that MM should be random, but not because 'the game isn't about skill', that notion is just silly ( and often made by people lacking said skill ),

    While Von_Boeg has a point, I'm more concerned with getting conflicting information..
  11. Well I think it could work but just not for the entire player base, lots will run into chat bans. That being said, having them unable to chat but leaving the rest, would that really be such a bad thing
  12. DoT is the name of the game, well that and exploiting BB's who never heard of WASD hax Tell me, did you ever have a game with > 50k in raw HE damage? I don't think I did, I might have but I don't think I did. High damage games are mostly about starting > 10 fires at least ( on the right targets ) and that occasional enemy BB which forgot to use his fingers but was controlling the keyboard with his face ( apparently ).
  13. Provide the replay so we can see what choices lead to said situation..
  14. That is why I say it could work but it would result in many chatbans. Which as you say, isn't a loss at all. So yes, I feel they could add it, but it will strain WG's support/ticket system because more bans -> more complainTs. Got to ask the question then, is the added worth enough to offset the costs of maintenance? edit: spelling
  15. Bit torn on this one. Would it be nice if people would use it for positive discussions but I don't have much faith in that happening. Would be nice to be wrong though, and it could work but I do predict a lot of chat bans
  16. Sims afaik has the highest modifier off all, and yes she is a good captain trainer, she makes lots of money ( most of any tier 7 afaik ) and the most XP ( hence, good captain trainer ).
  17. Only 93k, had another 60k but that felt meh, then also had a few with 20-30k which were bad. The games with high damage all have > 10 fires on BB's and some torps, both of which are situational. Also, as I got tired I kind of noticed that having such good accuracy is only really handy when you're aiming straight as an arrow
  18. My IJN DD captain is both AFT and DE, or AFT with CE but I don' t use her in Yubari. Without AFT you lack range to disrupt drops, or well ofc you can always glue yourself next to a BB but that means you'll have a limited impact. CE un Yubari is useless since AFT doesn't give her more range anymore, even with CE you won't be stealth firing. It was the first and only game I played with her yesterday, I will try some more today but I don't expect to beat that kill count. As for damage, I can always try.. but yeah that was an almost full hp battleship which forgot to use WASD hax and ate four torps. Tbh, my screenshot wasn't to imply Yubari does that all the time, my average is 31k and 57% win's but a lot of those are old games with the old captain perks. Yubari needed some love, this gun upgrade certainly gives it something nice but I can still not play Yubari like it was before all the changes. She still doesn't touch her AAA capabilities as from CBT, maybe for the better but it was fun if some new carrier player tried to just fly his planes over you and they all died before he could give a new order. That and the range she lost due to the AFT change really changed how much I enjoyed her. The new module doesn't give that all back, but it's not at all a bad 'buff'. Proof is in the pudding though, I'll try to play 5 games in her tonight and see if I can get some nice consistent results ( with one very high up outlier most probably ).
  19. Yup my Zao captain is useless on her, well not useless but I rather take my DD captains as they closer match the skillset needed. And yeah the new module which lowers dispersion by 40%. I had like 50% hit ratio that game I posted the screenshot off, granted a lot was just due to people not having discovered WASD hax at tier 4 but they also felt so good. Gives you a sense off control, like you could actually hit 4/4 shots on that evading DD at max range if you just aim right. Also, DE helps a lot, 11 fires ( aka 1 out of 10 shells give or take ) stack up fast. Look, ofc, Yubari doesn't win from a Kuma or a Phoenix they put out more dpm in a straight fight. So don't go for straight fights ( be mean, not honorable ).
  20. Very true, but this was literally my first and only game I played with the new module. I know it's not proof off anything than that I had a good game in her But if I can, so can others.
  21. Twice in a row, but that was the only times. I had to say enemy didn't focus me once, only when I had 5 kills that started to take notice
  22. So, I have this port queen, I call her Yubari-poi :3 I took her out of port, after having switched a module on her first slot. I got a nice game, idk if it was the new module or me being so awesome ( or, perhaps both )
