    Some interesting info around the world

    I will ask someone who also also speaks RU if he can confirm, if not I'll pass the question down the line.

    Latest patch broke the game.

    How do you know what ST has or has not reported to WG? Ask yourself that before throwing around blame please. And no, I didn't take it as hate, just as invalid comments based on having insufficient available information to form a better informed opinion.

    [12.6.0] Aslain's WoWS ModPack Installer

    Ignore windows safe screen, click 'more options' -> 'install anyway'. edit: Btw Aslain I noticed in game today that the minimap is outdated on the maps which had changes in the last patch.

    Server idea

    Wasn't the whole video propaganda? A funny kind though, entertaining to say the least until you think of what leis beneath. Btw, RU propaganda stronk, I hear many RU watch Russia today and believe everything they say I'm sorry but Imperialism is wrong, no matter if the political system involved is democratic or totalitarian ( or in between ).

    Aim learning and support application

    Forum had some downtime, if you were posting at the time ( or refreshing most likely ) all those refreshes are thrown in new posts.

    Aim learning and support application

    I would change the name though, since 'aim assistant' might give the app a bad name ;) It's more a ballistic calculator anyway. In a sense it should go like this: You're playing the game and your gunnery officer is next to you with his ballistic computer ( android phone.. ). You shout: "Cruiser, medium speed, 8 seconds!" Your gunnery officer goes to work, fractions later he shouts back: "2.5 ships length!" You lead the target correctly, and get your devastating strike. Sounds kind of immersive right

    All I want to say is that I dread a smaller player base ( since I am Dutch and will remain on this 'EU' cluster ) but economics wise I agree it makes more sense than currently.
  8. Basically escorting BB's is the prime role in this thing anyway, it's not a brawler and should use it's range as long as possible. The long range ( 7.6km!! ) of 96dps it is iirc with captain skills and equipment is pretty obscene though. During PT I had two tier 6 carriers throw 3 mixed squadrons at me, two TB and one DB and none of those even launched/dropped, so I do think it's not balanced properly atm. Basically, if lower tier CV's have one of these on the enemy team, it means totally forgetting about attacking near it or saying bye quickly to your plane reserves. Against an Esses it is still sufficient. Basically this is a tier 8 Atlanta without the unlimited AAA barrages and good shell arc's and ap. I would say that sooner then a tier 8 Cleveland, as a Cleve can take a beating and Atlanta is more like this thing: fragile as wet newspapers.
  9. You don't necessarily need clans for that, we have a public TS ( especially the other language sections are packed most of the time ) and if nothing else one can try the Forumites in game channel ( SturmTiger304's with password 'play4fun' ). Clans are also an option off course o7
  10. Seriously guys, all these youtube recommendations and no one mentioned Trigger_Happy_Dad... Basically watch anyone who gives good commentary during the gameplay as to why he is doing what he is doing, what he is looking at/for and what his plans are.
  11. Anything you change in the game ( mechanics wise ) can introduce unforeseen consequences so for that reason sometimes something which might seem trivial just isn't worth the returns. It's a bit like individual turret control ( or manual secondaries ), WG knows some would like this very much but it's not fitting with WoWs arcade 'simple' philosophy.
  12. Response has always been 'silence'. It's not seen as a worthwhile addition in relation to the efforts involved I guess
  13. Well it's 4 x 76mm AAA guns... I basically treat her like Arkansas, no AAA period
  14. I think statistically Roon is doing better then Des Moines. But you're right, WG is surely set out to showcase how bad German designs were compared with glorious Motherland designs

    [12.6.0] Aslain's WoWS ModPack Installer

    Navigator is not working, I selected it from the mod list but it's not showing up in game. Also only now notice that I been selecting transparent minimap all the time but I keep ending up with the opaque minimap anyway. I checked the folder and you did copy the swf there but the swf doesn't work stand alone ( don't ask me dependencies, I didn't have time to check ). I ended up installing it to an empty game folder and copying it into res_mods manually later ( which results in that strange half circle in my top left corner near the fps and ping counter ). Now that I think about it, with ProShips I also tried to install a transparent minimap and there it also doesn't work for some reason.. Well transparent minimap is FAR less important to me then the minimap with ship names and detection ranges Edit: looking at the mod I installed stand alone you need consumer_main_scene.swf and consumer_main_scene_low.swf for the navigator to work?

    it's in your %world_of_warships%\profile folder. I agree it's not very logical

    Current teamkiller punitive system

    If another DD, one of you is 'doing it wrong' and should give the other some more space ( this ofc only applies to torp DD's, not gunboat DD's ) A fast cruiser in the way of a DD trying to launch his torps is a fast cruiser underway to port as he will get spotted by an enemy DD and focused by half the enemy team ( most likely ). The 'fast cruiser' is still not a DD and should not 'be in the way'. These seem very basic things and I am pretty sure there are plenty of YT video's out there explaining why this is as it is. But, I know, all those 'rules' are annoying as hell and really frustrating if you consider you might be the 'only one' adhering to them, but if more people eventually learn these basics maybe even randoms can be more enjoyable someday in the future. Most 'bad behavior' in game is not done with the intent to be malicious I believe, but rather a result of a lack of knowledge.

    [12.6.0] Aslain's WoWS ModPack Installer

    I tried all that, I installed the font manually but no dice. But as I mentioned I was running a very old client which had never seen a fresh install since way in CBT so I was suspecting I might had some corruption somewhere, downloaded client again and now both my previously download Alsain's modpack installers as my WoWs_promodpack work flawlessly. Just had to combine one thing from that pack with my usual setup of mods, an additional screen element which shows relative angles between you and your target ( you can get this from minimap, but this is 'easier' ). *next to minimap The downside is that I have this weird half circle on top left of screen by fps/ping counter, idk what it's supposed to do/be and it's not obscuring anything so I'll take it for now Aslain sorry I thought it was the modpack, it was clearly my old client needed a refreshment. If you could, can you look at adding that element I now 'lended' from ProShips?

    Mogami - does someone actually like this ship?

    Well only WG has actual access to that data, even historical performance is not relevant as no 3rd party tracker will be able to differentiate between Mogami with 203 and with 155

    Share your warships.today evaluation!

    Since the evaluation changed I'll repost mine: mtm78 on European server High level overview Mostly plays cruisers and is excellent in them Deals a very large amount of damage Extremely often uses torpedoes (when in ships that have them) Key vehicle - Imperator Nikolai I
  21. Your profile only has 4 active ships -> http://worldofwarships.eu/en/community/accounts/501122566-snakeye75/#tab=pve/account-tab-ships-pve Your NA profile has a lot more -> http://worldofwarships.com/en/community/accounts/1001122177-snakeye75/#tab=pve/account-tab-ships-pve You installed the wrong client the first time around. WG won't move those to EU so you will either have to continue on NA or start over on EU sorry. You can switch your current EU client to NA region without re downloading by some simple moding, though I have no experience with it so I am not sure if it's reliable around patch days
  22. I almost said: you seem to forget that while all that is true ( AFT + Pyro ) it also applies to Kuma. But ofc you're not forgetting, it just felt that way to me because I feel I'm meeting more and more higher skill captains ( not players, while even that is true ) in Yubari or any tier 4. It might even be that I am liking Yubari less since more people are having good captains now even on those lower tiers, so less advantage of having my higher tier CA captain in her compared to the opponents I meet? And buffing AAA is questionable, if you got super on your captain taking into account the speed of planes at that tier you can already shut down a carrier for much of the game. But, since you're only buffing the range the AAA, something which indeed would not make her instantly overpowered vs planes but would make it a whole lot easier to escort ships ( 3.6km range is really low even if the planes are slow ). We should have a 'current suggestions' thread... like a Q&A thread with one of the developers like they have on RU forum. This would be a nice suggestion I feel I mean, I don't want a Kuma with AAA that would be bad for gameplay, but if I don't have the brawling capability of a Kuma then give my actually useful ability some more use. Btw you already kill twice the amount of planes per match as me ( give or take ), but since I originally played Yubari as sniper/harasser and not as escort that might skew things

    Mogami - does someone actually like this ship?

    The way an argument is presented goes a long way, no one will deny that. Still, you can have your doubts which setup is more optimal, there is a common consensus amongst top players, and that is that 155's are supreme because it allows fighting from longer range. It's fine to oppose something, and you can doubt which setup is 'better'. Which is the wrong word to use anyway, I prefer to use 'optimal'. The optimal setup of a Mogami is 155's. That I can say without a doubt in my mind. And why, because I know statistics support what I say. But better? Maybe you get better results with the 203's, changing to those guns totally changes how the ship is played and maybe this style matches yours better. So in that case, 'better' would be 203's. But it's 'optimal' with the 155's. Because people who run that setup and use it 'correctly' will on average do better then people who choose the alternate setup.
