I had days with ~80% win rate and me feeling sour because those damn Myoko missions are going so slowly... People are wired to pay more attention to negative things by nature, it is beneficial for survival if you remember and think about the bad things ( as it prepares you for future encounters with said bad things ).

Chill out, I don't even think it was ill intent ( edit: though there certainly is a difference in what you said originally and the current content, it is not far fetched your current content is what you meant to say in the first place ). The 'called out'/'confronted' was in general. You can leave the thread if you got nothing to discuss, but please don't try to pin it on us. edit: and again you edit your post after I make mine, and again what I said is suddenly 'open to interpretation'. I take back my former comment, it looks like you're doing it on purpose. IF you edit your post, only ADD stuff, don't change stuff you said it discredits you completely if you keep doing that.

I got mine based on random draw ( so I haxed the competition by making sure I have as many posts which might coincide with the number generated by the random number generator ) so it's even more of a free gift for me then for people ( like you iirc ) who actually earned one with one of their submissions. About false advertising, well I have a Yubari and I can recall it being advertised with a 'promise' of clear sky awards galore, and frankly that was not a lie. Right up till they changed the planes HP, and when they 'compensated' by giving it the AAA barrage. But, given how any tier 4 carrier who had the bad luck of getting in a match with a capable would be devoid of planes ( unless he ignored that entire flank ) before half the match were over, and how plane HP was changed throughout the tiers, the change was needed. And now, with prem barrage and superintendent you will still ruin any tier IV carrier's match as that is 3 x 40 seconds where his attacks will not hit an afk Arkensaus ( true story ) and while not as easily as before you can still kill his planes reasonably good as well. I have a Sims, during CBT I think it was one of my most played DD's ( certainly a direct contender for being 'fun to play' as my Gremmy ). But it didn't have 20s flight time at 15km then either. But again, the change is something which was needed ( since it was just THAT good with the shell arc more like the current RU gunboats have and it's agile turrets ). But both cases I don't see as false advertising, Sims is still a good DD hunter and you can still designate Yubari as 'terror of the sky'. Btw, DM had best in game long range AAA during consumable usage before a change to the way barrage worked.

I should know better, it is why I usually always quote people even if it's the post above mine ( unless forumite, I have trust in most people who frequent here as not many would make edits and not come clean on them when asked/confronted ).

You can make edits after my reply, doesn't change what you said edit: just for clarity: you originally just said you never had more than +-1 MM with CV's and that that was enough. Ow and to the other part of your edit: Why wouldn' t MM put you in a +-2 spread match, just like all the other ships with +-2 MM? I might be able to think of a reason but I want to hear your argumentation please.

Exactly, if I see I lost my first 3 fights of a day it's usually best if I take a break or just forgo playing more that day at all, it's how our minds are wired I guess. Factually, it shouldn't influence anything, but because you already lost those battles you will play worse because most people will try 'forcing' a victory. I don't even have to lose, even if I win but when I feel I performed badly it influences how I play the next game, and if it keeps happening I start to 'loose my cool' and I will play badly.

I see you're up to the Hatsuharu yourself @OP, title is misleading this is a PEBKAC or ID10T or any other kind of wetware problem, and not related to MM algorithm

You're absolutely right, my apologies I read your post as a stand alone comment which is why I was even asking myself if you were being serious or not Though I been gibbed a couple of times when being undetected by some BB shooting at me 15 seconds before my sixth sense went off ( and me sailing straight since, ye I wasn't detected anymore ). This thread is going really fast and there are a lot of posts which I don't even think are debatable so I have skipped a large part of it, again sorry I didn't read your post in the context you meant it in edit: Though, if you want my 100% serious question: yes, even when undetected I do not sail in straight lines for long times, especially if I have been spotted going in a certain direction before getting unspotted ( like going back to a cap or something, anything which requires me to keep my course for a while ). Why? Because most of my cruisers have good cammo, and that cammo factor allows a> jumping on enemies who are already engaged and b> enemies who don't know exactly where you are. So, when I want to break contact I wait till I am unspotted and then still change my course just to make sure they can't predict where I will pop up again.

The voice is not from Iona ( Arpeggio content ) but from the KC voice mod ( KC = Kancolle Collection ). Still doesn't answer your question off what she is saying but just felt like pointing it out Subtitles for ARP ( and KC mod ) would be nice though, sometimes I think she is warning me for torpedo's but I can't hear port or starboard

Yes, we can all see you clearly know how to play cruisers better, and hence are always right when making claims like the one I commented on edit: though atm I am not even 100% sure if you were being serious or not.. if not, my apologies If you were serious...

No, Pepsi is spotted at the same time it can shoot, Marblehead is spotted quite some time before it can shoot ( if you don't take into account a captain with AFT ).

Ow and...

Very good feedback, thanks! WG now certainly know what is wrong with their MM, and how to fix it. We as a community, are very grateful for your constructive and cohesive proposals to make this a better game But, back on topic: your loss streak right, well they just happen. I don't see people complain when they win 8 out off 10 games, because usually then it's all about skill. But losing, no, that is bad / rigged matchmaking. Btw do you also complain when you as tier VIII meet tier VI ships in battle? Or is that acceptable, and the issue only is when you meet higher tiers?

AFT saves the day there. Btw, didn't you like me got it for free in the new year contest? If so, no need to look a given horse in the mouth ( hehe Dutch saying sound so nice if you directly translate them into Engrish ). PS Murmansk is advertised as AAA cruiser for tier V right... so no way Marblehead would ever get the same designation with it's 4x76.2mm ( same as my Imperator tier IV BB ).

Your personal experience doesn't change the fact that MM always been 2 tier up and down. Edit: Just as the 'fact' that that would be enough is just your personal preference.

There ALWAYS been two tier spread. And look at the pic in OP, enemy Lexi had an impact on the game with two kills. I don't see any issue really, at least not evident from the image or post content other than the comment about Lexi being more useful in higher tier match then Shokaku ( your comment ). CV's do have the highest increase in fighter durability/speed so yes the scaling is harsh. But again, there always been two tier spread, so your OP is very wrong as the MM spread is not problematic ( as you said just now, the scaling between tiers is... and as you claimed before, with the difference between Lexi and Shoka ). I don't think I'm missing the point; I think you been pointing out a> something which isn't the point ( MM spread ) and only now you've pointed to the real problems which is scaling between tiers and the difference between nations. Because, again, Lexi has made an impact in that game which proofs the MM spread isn't the issue?

No, how else can your account name be on NA with the ships you mentioned you played? That is your account. If you can't log into the game on NA server you switched email/pwd combination. There is no other logical explanation. edit: Unless your NA account was 'hacked' and they changed your password..

Your account was on NA, if you can't log in you're using the wrong email/password combination. But I'm glad to hear you're doing the grind again this time on EU server

Sure you can and should team up with other ship in division with a carrier, why not? And if you mean 2 CV divisions.... you can't even do that.... edit: point in case is OP, enemy 'low tier carrier' has two kills and obviously has had influence on the match. What more do you want? To always be top tier?

Actually you should.

You can't play in division with 2 carriers.

Shouldn't you complain about per tier balance between nations then instead of MM imbalance? If Lexi is capable of having a decent match being bottom tier....

Panocek, many thx @OVanBruce it is a rather large dock when looking at file count and size, but I recon most of it is light maps for the sky effects (which is what makes this dock so awesome right ). I think the space port is one the lightest docks with fewest files / lowest filesizes but I might be terribly mistaken

/me sticks head in sand, hopes no one has seen him....
