Fixed your -1 OP. This not about envy, it is about equality. I spend money yesterday to buy doubloons to convert some of my XP on elited ships ( I played clicker yesterday, yes carriers.... for the air kill missions with a bogue with 2 fighters being almost useless to my team.. sorry for that team, blame WG for the mission requirements ). I does not feel right some 'lucky' people are getting 200 euro worth of free xp, because trust me there are people who gotten it because they knew about the bug. Those people getting away with it would leave me with a VERY sour taste. No it is free XP which you do not need to convert, check the SS with the 2.5m free xp and 9xxx ship XP.

I know about that link, which is why I spend money on a Pz II J I hardly play ( I could use the gold in WoWs anyway later )... But I can accept it not being now, wouldn't be bad if they would hurry up though...

Yeah I am not 100% sure on where the line is either, I did not have a WWWW but just W for faster since saying faster four times would be just as quick in acceleration ( I think voice commands are only really immersive in battleships, in other ships you're better of using your fingers since it is quicker ). That is why I asked. I stopped using it anyway, I get better results playing with the kb+mouse

We had this discussion before on this forum and it didn't take long for someone making an 'evasive manouver' command which alternated between QQ and EE at set intervals. Which would fall under automation, since it automates user actions. Single voice commands to single key strokes does not. Is that how I should interpret this?

That is an indication of an expected timescale which many companies use, and Ectar mistakenly made that public. The problem with those time scales is that they are almost never final. But Ectar already said that, and you're still looking at it as an official announcement. Which is fair game I guess, Ectar is an official WG employee and what he posts should reflect that. In hindsight he should have chosen his words more carefully, but everyone in the community was already expecting it to happen around end off OBT because that how it happened in WoWp. Now, does that mean WG has broken a promise or did Ectar made a mistake given in with how wide spread the expectation already was that it would happen around that time, I'm still not convinced of you being 'right' here. I asked for an offcial announcement, and the link you give is a forum post with a broad statement: We're in release cycle now, but if 'IT' happened in a couple of months from now, when looking at the lifetime of mmo's, it's still 'round about the time OBT ends'. I will eat these words btw the moment WG announces gold, in hindsight, will never be unified... I might even pick up a pitchfork and join the angry mob but let's not get ahead of things

Kongou is a Battle Cruiser ( BC ) not a BB

No you got that wrong: the rewards for the mission will be ARS content IF you have the correct port selected. Otherwise you will just earn the other rewards ( silver/free xp ). I am not sure about the ships, but if you complete the mission and are eligible for ARP ships and you don't select the port; I think you will just not see them ( and not that you will see a regular Kongo/Myoko there ) but I'm not sure on this aspect.

Answer my question ( finally..... ) please; will you be happy if those two background images in the mission screen are no longer visible or will you keep complaining about being able to participate in a mission for content you don't want to play for?

No because people who don't have that port selected should still be able to earn the rewards of any mission. So again, the image I linked has two 'anime girls', that is the most you can see ever without specifically unlocking things and this is what is rustling your jimmies right? So what if WG made it a mission background like all others, problem solved. But if you want to continue with your; I don't want to see missions at all, I don't care for logic and things like that I just don't want anime stuff visible ever and that even includes text describing missions related to them.... well be my guest but I won't bother replying to you anymore as there is no point in trying to constructively discuss anything with you if you're acting that childish.

No I think he means these backgrounds -> edit: nice edit Spellfire kek ( he had an image from the missions overview after battle but those don't even have anime backgrounds ).

Let's not get into that, I'm a player like you and I don't get paid by WG to 'defend them' nor do they expect such things from us. So, back on topic: if they removed that ONE single static background image in the mission overview, would you be satisfied?

Damage [edited] is just as easy and annoying as kill [edited]

Yes you can, just not a single static picture in a mission overview. I guess thought if you complain long and hard enough, they might disable the picture background so it looks like a regular mission, would that satisfy you or would you be looking for other 'leakage' of that creepy anime stuff in your WWII themed game? Ow and .. Yeah, really, it's clearly the 'anime crowd' which is being obnoxious here...

I was wrong, missions are active no matter the port. Which makes sense, people have their favourite ports and should not miss out on mission rewards. Unlike missions, content ( aka unlocked ARP ships ) will not show up in game unless the port is selected. So even IF you complete the missions, if you don't want to see those ships you never will.

No you don't. The missions don't even activate unless you select the Anime port... you by chance got the Anime port activated?

Yes and that page was the same before release of WoWs, so what changed? Where is the announcement that the unified account would happen at release? That's the whole point, not that we want or been promised unified accounts, everyone agrees on that. But there never was an announced date for this to happen, again, that's the whole point. I might not make myself popular with pointing this out, but it's true non the less.

Where is the date? That is a global statement and doesn't indicate a set date. Sorry but no, you can't find a specified date, no matter how long you search. In that regard, it's just community making assumptions on their own ( and I am one of them, I too thought I would be able to use my WoT gold in WoWs after release ). So again: find an official statement with a date, or even a timetable where it says it was going to happen 'between X and Y'...

Was playing Ibuki yesterday and we met an enemy Izumo division which thought they would push a flank.. not going to happen with my division there, we burned them and burned them and burned them and our BB's were engaging. The Izumo's both started to reverse for I think 10 minutes before dying, and we we're like: is he really going backwards all the time... really? One in my division later said they were 60% + wr player(s? not sure, one was at least ). Izumo just can't show side's, and when you're running away you lose too much firepower. Just to illustrate, good players in bad ships are not suddenly making them into good ships, they usually can just hide the weaknesses better than 'lesser' players.

Can we have an off button for cretins in our team? Can we have an off button for cretins on the forum? Can we have a button for world peace? You're seeing an overlay on a fricking mission, you're not seeing the actual content, in Dutch we have a saying: Storm in een glass water. Which has the same meaning as: making a mountain from an ant hill ( I think.. ). Tough it out, the missions won't be available for that long anyway.

Can you find me a quote where WG had said beforehand when account unification would occur? I mean a quote from a WG employee, a web page from the WG portal or anything? Let me safe you the trouble of looking: there is none. There has been no official mention of when the unified account would be implemented. People assumed it would be like the other two titles, and assumed it would happen right at release ( even while this wasn't even true for WoWp ). How can a community making assumptions damage the reputation from WG? I'd say it damages the reputation of a part of it's player base, not of the company itself. Not the making assumptions part, that is normal, but the part which is trying to make fiction into fact and are in fact close to slandering a company because they aren't getting what they themselves thought they'd be getting at the time they thought they'd be getting it. Now that being said, they better hurry up as I will spend more money on WG products if I can do so from a single currency, gold and not 'doubloons'.

A buffer should always be in place, we're only human. But atm I feel it's too lenient and by allowing so much team damage before the system kicks in it makes people look at team damage as less of thing to avoid at all cost and that in turn increases the frequency.

Disable it for divisions, large part of abuse problem solved? Other fix: lower the damage thresholds for the team damage tracking system. Combine both and it doesn't sound that bad?

Looks very submarine like, wonder what the crushing depth of this model is..
