As you noticed, it's terrible when used as pure DD, and as DD leader she doesn't pack the punch needed to brawl with CL's like a Phoenix or Kuma both of which will win a 1v1 fight. In exchange you get AAA which works and barrage ability which melts planes.. which is fine if you want to play escort/support which is all this ship is, and is less fine if you would want to do so and there aren't enough CV's to keep that interesting. Yubari was one of my favourite ships, not OP but fun to play you know, now I hardly touch her . If I had constant battles with carriers when playing Yubari it would be fine... but I don't. And any other match I keep wishing in Kuma/Phoenix.. and then I switch to Imperator and meet two carriers in 5 consecutive matches

I learned this through Takeda's thread here -> http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/31444-some-interesting-info-from-ru/page__st__400__pid__733035#entry733035

Why? Why is playing like a donkey and launching from second or god forbid even third line not the same as deliberate team killing? Because there is no torpedo lead indicator for friendles so people have to guess? If you launch from second or god forbid third line it's exactly the same as deliberate team killing. Luckily only had one today, a Phoenix which almost killed my Murmansk shooting torps at a BB 12 km away.. I told him what I thought of him and moved away, there was no chance I was going to stay near him or between him and the enemy. Making friendly torps do less damage is a imo giving the wrong impression to people, but I'm not the one who makes the calls ( sometimes that's a good thing, this time though... not sure ). Instead people doing team damage should a> turn pink quicker b> the moment they are pink not be able to do friendly fire but have it reflected fully. And those who don't turn pink should have to pay a fine which is at least double the repair bill of the damage he inflicted on the victim. And the victim should have the option to 'forgive', and if forgiven no penalty will apply. But if not forgiven, the penalties should be much higher than they are now.

Do you have the font installed, it's the most obvious problem I recon and I was to intoxicated to check.... Edit: I kept seeing font issues in my logs and I couldn't get the minimap working without crashing. I uninstalled my game, installed it again, download the modpack using link 1 this time, install all mods, and no errors. Not sure where things went wrong, likely my old client caused the problems. Doing a fresh install sometimes really helps

That can only happen if you changed region, eg you used the EU client af first and now downloaded for instance the NA client ( or vice verse ). The ships you unlocked/bought are tied to your regional account.

This is the error I am getting when running with ONLY the minimap mod installed ( installed by a fellow user on his pc it runs fine, on mine it crashes hard each replay )/ I was planning on giving Twitch a go today but I really want to sort this mess out. I haven't done a clean live client install in ages though so it might be that doing a clean install is all that is needed.

Nice video, like it very much!

Well there was an use case on RU forums with a DM doing the same dmg counts but one with plenty of fire dmg and one with much more raw HE dmg and the latter got much more XP. In reply a dev said fire's are not counted for XP. It should be relatively easy to verify/dismiss by finding two results of current patch with the same MM ( target tier relevant to own tier influences XP for instance ) and try if the user case is repeatable under current mechanics. A flat reward for each fire is also a sensible 'correction' to the actual damage tracking mechanism. Infact, since the actual amount of fire dmg in cases is very much random ( does the target have repair available or not ), an flat XP bonus might even be more fair. I had a match yesterday where I had 20k damage from only four fires, and matches where 9 fires did less than 5k damage in total. But those 9 times it lead to opponents death or the target using repair ability so other were able to do more damage. So should I get more XP for the 20k damage because I was lucky someone else made that target use his repair ability just before I put him on fire? There is something to be said for both sides if you ask me. Well flooding is tracked and counted so I would hope fires will be to. I am expecting it's not a mechanic which is turned off by choice but rather by a bugged implementation which causes incorrect amount of XP to be awarded when turned on, that is the only sensible explanation and also leads to the expectation that it will be fixed. I don't know if this is actually true, I really don't, and if I inquired to verify it I wouldn't be allowed to discuss the answer in public anyway ( like you well know I think ). In this case, I certainly don't. I was as shocked reading it as any, I have quite a few HE spamming CA/CL's and I never felt they were not getting their proper XP. I do think this subject might need some love on forum, as it seems it needs some clarification.

I am not sure that is the way, infact I told someone else who mentioned to boycott WG to a guy with 1 post on forum that he should at least give the guy the chance to make up his own mind. Promoting boycotting WG will, unless you find yourself with likeminded people around you in which case the promotion is not needed to start with, will likely backfire. I seen people in game calling 'boycott WG, don't buy bundles!' and I was laughing quite hard. Because, a> the people who will know what is was about are people from forum or people who know people from forum, and those people should already know what is happening and have made up their own mind, and b> people who don't know what is going on are not more likely to buy a bundle because some guy in a random battle told him to boycott a company. Now if you gave people an url with a reasoning, and not lead with a conclusion, that would a> attract only interested people b> who are more open minded and likely to be influenced by what you write. And, it also allows people with an opposite view ( if there are any... ) to share their view. Trying to influence behavior without influencing understanding only works in totalitarian society

Don't forget that atm fire dmg does not count toward XP or credits ( was posted on RU forum by a developer after a community question ).

Which is a valid option for sure, but in individual cases it doesn't count. Mind you I want Tirpitz, but I won't spend 60 euro on her now. Still I'm not really convinced anymore it's actually working, seems forum is either a vocal minority ( and people are buying the package deals in bundles (see what I did ) ) or WG is just very good at hoping for the best and keeping a very straight face. I had hopes after Blys... it was almost blissful but it didn't last

Yes it is.

I install all mods with 5.2.0.00 and game runs fine, I install just the minimap mod in a different folder and copy it into place -> crash. Remove it -> game runs fine Not just with your modpack as source so not blaming you, I tried different mod source and same result

Well I can't play with mods now it seems, each time game crashes ( even tried other modpack ). Had to play vanilla ... Will try to install at least sights and otm when I get back and just play with that.

I got the crashes even without any skins installed, with and without sound mods ( and logs were not that clear why ) and it's Christmas and I don't want to spend all day debugging/troubleshooting so I'll be using an older/different modcollection or the time being.

It doesn't mean you can't sink me, infact I think I recall you sinking me more than once already, it's just that you don't do it often enough ( yet ) And I don't play ranked, wouldn't like the MM throwing people I can't trust on my team I would get seriously frustrated by their lack of performance when I depend on it, since people seem to think ranked is actually more than just randoms with smaller teams. I hear from many good players that even high ranks are filled with bad players who just got carried to higher ranks by their teams. Ranked is not less of a display of skill as anyone's average performance in randoms though, well the rank itself can be pure luck but avg performance in ranked battles should be more telling than in randoms since the teams are smaller. I considered ranked a couple of times, really did, and each time I was ready for a battle and wanted to press the button, I saw me getting teamed up with six people I know and wouldn't want to be teamed up with. I never pressed that button

Just installed latest hotfix with minimap with last spotted position and ship names + dmg log ( all other mods stayed the same ) and I crash on starting the game. edit: wasn't minimap mod, reinstall without minimap mod and still crashes so it has to do with another mod which has changed. Will now try without the sound mods. edit2: Got it running again, this time I tried without my Arpeggio skins. If someone who also has those can post it doesn't crash on him/her that would be nice edit3: Nope, crashes after loading a battle... I think I will try my first installer and just abandon this until I have more time python.log _Aslain_logs.zip

Merry Xmas to all

Wait, we found the problem! You can't block DD's with other classes because DD's are NOT supposed to fight between the other ships. You're supposed to be ahead, screening for your team. If you play your DD as second line torp spammer, you'll do nothing but make your allies wish you uninstalled. No one on your team has to have considerations for your torpedo arcs, you're not supposed to be in a situation where they have to ffs.

Ow ye baby

Merry Christmas all o7

Sounds like the file is corrupted, there were some issues with the patches and some fixes involved but I can't recall as I had no issues personally with the patch. You should follow this thread -> http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/35743-how-to-report-a-bug/ and contact support, there might be a 'simple solution' they know and I don't

Yes I have, and those are STILL my own fault. What if the guy doesn't speak English? What if he doesn't read chat at all ( 'soon' we will be able to mute chat entirely, well I hear this function is coming )? If you pull the trigger it's your bad, no matter how 'dumb' the other guy for not doing what you expect of him. I team killed in this manner and I crawled through the dust apologizing. Yes those were good torps, they would have hit if I didn't hit the friendly ( or most likely would... ) but they were also bad torps because a friendly COULD turn into them. I chose to take the risk, but I did not choose to deny the responsibility

Was in the post, premium account no extra flags. I didn't take a dmg shot on that one but you can check my profile for my max damage game and that was likely this one. I can upload some of my latest replays but they are still from older patches so it's likely they won't play. I will keep some recent one's from current patch for those interested. Btw I'm not the highest performing Impregnator on EU server but close, so don't expect the same results unless you're equally able.

Yay promoting team killing, and calling people noobs while sporting a 46% win rate
