I know, I actually like the guy ( tutorials and know your ship video's were/are great! ). I was just pissed, I know those DD's are awesome with a proper captain but I can't play them how they should be played because we lack the captain. His comment was the drop which made the bucket tip over, I am fully aware I made a fool out of myself for taking it personal, but that is how strong I feel about this. Trust me, if you'd play that tier X DD with a 3 point captain and then see someone play it with a proper one, you would be a bit vexed as well. I'll refollow him next time I see him on Twitch, and offer him an apology ( that is, if he even was aware of me throwing a bit of a hissy fit ). Thanks for pointing it out though, have a +1 for being brutally honest with me

Mod author has stated this will not happen, it will stay about 30-35%, but avg damage will go up. And as been pointed out, by removing the skill needed to aim, you gain time/ability to concentrate on situational awareness. The mod doesn't only give you a lead indicator, it basically makes the rest easier as well because you got all this time to spend on where your ship is, what angle it is on, where allied ships are and what they are doing, what enemy ships are doing and the list goes on.

Who ever claimed that, surely not me? ( about majority )

There is one good reason in this game to slow down ( to a stop ). It's when you see a DD with my name on it, and you have an appetite for fresh fish. Any other times you put your ship to a full stop, you're doing it wrong. Yes BB's, that includes trying to sidescrape behind an island, since that enemy DD will just come from the other side of the same island and your guns won't traverse in time to save your behind from a full volley of his fresh fish. If talking about changing speed often to trow of the aim of people, sure go ahead. Just don't use 1/4th speed or at least not for to long because it will make your response time to slow to dodge incoming shells. I usually keep my speed up and use angles more than speed changes and when I do use speed changes it's full-3/4-1/2 and not slower.

You should ask on NA forum, this mod originated from there. As I said in post #2 this is a reupload of an existing mod from someone else, ts hasn't been back in this thread since.

Consumable silver prices are very much ok in my book, not to high even for low to mid tier, and at high tier consumables will be a fraction off your other costs. I do not know why it was chosen that consumables are bought when you select them instead of when you go into battle, maybe they did the math and saw this would make the game more profitable for them since people might buy consumables they won't need ( tinfoilhatwarningsignhere! ). Maybe this was easier to implement, or maybe this seemed more clear I got no idea. For those of us who play(ed) WoT it seems odd to pay for stuff before you actually use it. If they did it like WoT the result screen would be a lot 'cleaner' and informative, but the current one will still work for me It's not such a big deal imo, even if I would have liked seeing it implemented differently.

No, stay strong. If you must, stop playing for a couple of days but don't become the bad guy just because it seems the bad guys aren't being punished for being baddies.

We do need proper tutorials and some more guides wouldn't hurt, but it is delusional to think that this would remove or even lower the amount of people who will abuse such illegal modifications. Also I don't actually think shooting is the hardest part of the game, it is only on low to mid levels. On higher skill levels, situational awareness >>> all, even aiming ( which this skill bracket should have nailed down already ). When in division with people better than me, I never have to point out where a carrier might be, or where planes are coming from ( which might not be the same ), where a DD is likely to sneak through, when we need to be offensive or defensive, which targets to prioritize. All those things will be known, and when I do point something out but get overruled, it's almost always because I missed something they did not.

Didn't even realize that but yeah should be able to turn on the spot, Lol would be fun to at least test the concept o7

Lol, the core issue has nothing to do with learning players to aim without using a cheat, the core problem is removing the ability to cheat. There will always be people who can and can not aim, those who can not shouldn't have a cheat available to them which removes that skill from the game.

You are all wrong, Murmansk is the stronkest Premium! I like my Greg as well,, but Murmansk is easier to get good results with.

64 bit executables can access more memory but WoWs will never fill the amount of memory available to a single 32bit process anyway so why do you think you would be better of with a 64 bit executable?

Paddle wheel carrier yes gib now pls! I am sure it will be slow and easy prey for my DD's

Ofc that is a cheat, it's even explicitly mentioned as one.

I just hope your version of control isn't just damage control but actually removing the ability to cheat

I already stated you can not move the burden of proof as you know as well as everyone it is very hard if not impossible to proof without a doubt. Which leaves the case of each and everyone claiming aim mod's for their demise/performance, and there I feel you're right. Most of the people claiming HAX are doing it for the wrong reasons ( which is why we see so little replays to go along with the 'HAX' threads ). There are however also quite knowledgable people around who do see a change in 'skill distribution' in regard to how well 'people' can aim. This can only be denied or verified by WG, as they have access to the statistics which would do that ( dismiss or support the alledged influence of the mod, and by doing so they can give a cleared indication of how widely used it is ).

Sorry but no, I see your attempt at damage control and I understand your motivation, but it contradicts my and lots of other people's knowledge and experience. @Elgerino, no I don't accuse you of cheating, when I say I doubt your motivation I just mean that: I don't know why you're dismissing the issue. But then, you just did indicate there is indeed an issue ( yet DD which should be the least affected class should not really notice it unless they drive straight? ). Now extrapolate it to cruisers which are the most affected please!

Nope brain, I facepalm'd iChase, and after his ignorant remark I told him we didn't have that ability to use another captain since they were test accounts ( which he should've known by then ) he just ignored me. I don't like that, don't talk down to me with remarks like 'well just use... duhh' and then just ignoring the fact I can't. It makes me look bad, when he is the ignorant one. I got no beef with you, come on if I had more free time I would hang out in your channel more like in the 'old' days ;)

iChase, who lost a follow because of his ignorant remark, told me to use a captain from Gremmy..... On a test account... which Gremmy? Why does this forum not have a facepalm emote.... ST test accounts came with the GER CA/CL line and SU DD line unlocked with 3 point captains on all, and the accounts can not earn credits nor experience in battle so no leveling. Playing high tier games with a 3 point captain is not working out very well for me so far, but I expect that to be totally different with a proper captain, which I would love to test on the live server since that is the best place for it, but I don't have the ability to do so because we don't have a captain nor the ability to level one.

Elgerino, I've always regarded you as a good, intelligent player and poster, but I'm doubting your motivation here. There obviously is an issue, yet you seem very keen on dismissing it ( or making it trivial, like some other people in this thread ). Sharana tested the mod and indicated it gives a huge advantage, and as I observed earlier the whole group of low to medium performing players now suddenly can shoot as well as the top bracket in many games. That is an issue, and there is no way around it. That it doesn't matter if you don't sail straight, fine we all know that, that doesn't make it anything less of a cheat since even if you are evading but he times it right he will still be able to hit shots he otherwise wouldn't have. You can not argue against that, it is not possible to convince any sane person of a different opinion. Mod needs to go, mod has a large influence on the game and anyone caught using it deserves a perm WG account ban period.

You have 8k more dmg in Cleveland then Aoba, 8k damage is cheating?

it's not correct Everything works here, maybe try mine

This isn't NavyField and it never will be. If you don't want any RNG, what do you call gun dispersion?

I don't have that ability to manually monitor pre aim mod stats and current stats, as I don't have the historical performance to compare it with. But you're on the right track in how to properly gauge the influence the mod has, eg better performing scrubs.

BB's have often stronger secondary guns then equal tier cruisers, you don't see an issue with those being under manual control? Even more accurate AI secondaries make some BB's incredibly OP since no DD would be able to get close to it.
