Hey, @MortenTardo, I'm offendededed.....u forgot mine. It says clearly: Open beer. Oh wait, that was just on the top of my beercan....my bad. Cheers.

Every year ranked turns into a shaitshow and players shout loudly about how awfull ranked is, and how useless the MM is etc etc.....yet when new season openeds the same player flock to the que and plays it. I mean, it was horrible for u all last season, and the season before and before that.

7865 battles Newcomers section Complains about players complaining he is sniping in his BB..... Yeah......about that…..

Never happened once to me. Never. I get waaay more love these days from CVs when I play DDs than in the past. Cause in the past u also got fightercover from CVs that wasn't completely retarded. I had a waaay easier life With the RTS CVs than this utter Garbage that is now.

Been back a littlebit after a 2 month break.....but something happened. It's like the players don't even try anymore. Never in my life seen so many suiciding ships. Like my last battle in the Zara. We were down 4 ships before I got to fire first salvo. I won a few more games than I lost yesterday......but it was all the same. They just sail forward and get blapped. And my games yesterday were alot of tier 9s and 10s. I am honestly baffled. Were is the fun in getting deleted every game? Games are over in less than 5 min sometimes.

To everyone. What module have u put in the 3rd slot for the US BBs? Did u go for main battery mod 2 or plotting room mod 1? I tried both and atm leaning towards battery mod 2

The problem, Op, is that WG have a long history of going against themselves when they see fit. Just look at wot. They release new content with a new gimmick and that new toy is slightly stronger than the last content, so it becomes unbalanced. They then nerf, which means a overnerf. And this they repeat. A slogan used in the past was historically accuracy. But that just counts as far as they have ships/tanks to balance it towards. Blueprints are a whole different approach. (Like british lights with no ammo capacity...historically accuracy. While the new double barreled tanks have double the ammoload than the single barreled tanks.....with the same hull.....yeah.) If u look into the russian bias that has been around for years, well, look at how russian tanks were balanced in wot, and how vocal the community is there if anything is stronger than russian stuff.....apply that to this game too to certain extent.....looking at the BBs. Then u have different stuff they want to implement into the game, which "forces" u to grind it to be competetive....the enhanced equipment planned for Research Bureau. And we were all pretty vocal against it. They ignored much of the feedback from the CV rework that many didn't want in the first place. And now they are trying to get subs into the game. And this is from a company with a massively long history of not being able to balance stuff, and a playerbase that learns nothing, cause they don't need to learn anything to get into higher tiers. There is alot of things I've forgotten here, but if u sum everything up u will get why alot of the CCs are so vocal about stuff, and the community. It all ranges from cashgrab stuff till stuff that breaks balance. But most of the time the rage isn't because we hate the game, most of us love playing it, and we don't want to see it getting ruined and unplayable. We all want a fun,balanced and engaging experience. I want to be able to sit down and play whatever shiptype there is, knowing that I'm not "forced" to play a certain type of ship to have any hopes of being competetive/having an impact. I uninstalled wot when they started with the bonds for enhanced equipment, cause it ment that I was forced to do something I didn't want to to be competetive in active clans. And it also gave the no lifers an edge over the rest of us. These are games, not our jobs. I spend some coins here cause I like to support this game. But lately I stopped doing it, I felt they moved into a direction I didn't agree with, so I stopped playing in november last year. Some of the reason was the whole PR fiasco. But it was just the tip of the iceberg for me at that moment. I have just returned a littlebit since I got 4 days of free premtime. Sry for such a long post, OP. But there is alot of us that are frustrated. I rly like this game. I love playing it. Heck, I even sit in port just to look at the ships sometimes. I think I need to grab a beer. Cheers.

I honestly liked the AP on the Devon. But after detonation a few times I started running the detoflag. Surrey is meh. And specially when u keep getting tier 9s all the time. And if u end up in a passive team....well….u are screwed. U can't push the tempo cause u can't take damage and Your guns have slow reload. And most ships outrange u.

Sold all of my CVs yesterday. Can't be asked to try anymore…...not that I tried that hard either.

I wish the USN BBs had aim sys mod 1?

If I am not mistaken, Cartman had a solution for that. (Not going to post that gif here....guessing it will be deleted)

No. Reload all the way.

Endless missions that made the game feel like a second job.

Well, in this game and in wot there is actually a thing called "rush to the enemy cap while we are being caped", cause going back to decap involves brainpower. And I'm not talking about players being Close to the enemy cap either, they have to move across the entire map to do it. And many of these players complain why u don't do this or that too.

Remove warning signes and let Natural selection kick in? (Yes, I'm joking, incase someone gets triggered)

From tier 6 and up u need to average 50% of the grindship hp pool before u unlock the next tier. If they aren't willing to learn anything, u force them. Same problem in wot, were u actually sealclubbed players in tier 10s since 2016. And wows have the same problem. Enough players have lost their way to tier 10 and flood the que.

Yeah. I remember that utter shitfest called SIMMS. One of the reasons the American server died. European barely survived. And today all regions play on 1 server. That's how many players that left that game, most of them during the SIMMS. People have this notion that skilled MM is good when it's actually a horrible horrible idea. PvP in AW is practically dead today. Many people went into PvE and never returned to the PvP arena.

Ofc we will have alot of bad players in a game with absolutely no requirements to go up the tiers other than patience. This is a game were u can lose yourself into tier 10......and u can use boosters to get there faster. Yeah. And the longer the game lives, the more tomatoes will progress the lines and flood into tier 10. Fresh players can buy tier 9s now. And with a little patience they can buy a tier 10 with resources. And with the back to back missions/specials they did, well, alot of gameplay went out the window cause players focused the missions. Just do what I ended up doing, just do your part to the best of your abilities and hope your team don't instadie. If they don't instadie, there is hope.

I've tried skilled MM With winrate as templet. The better u are the worse teammates u get to Balance it out. Ask AW how well it's playerbase is doing in randoms. Hordes of players left the game. The other one With my que is if u have a skill ladder and the better ones don't meet the bad ones. There are fewer ones that are highly skilled, and when they only face of at eachothers the winrate goes Down......and they fall into the Group of the less capable…..and quetimes for those left goes up cause it still need to balanz shiptypes too. And again. Every stat is paddable. U might have a high low tier winratio but horrible high tier winratio…..as an example. But it's rly no point of having a skilled based MM disqussion since WG stated nearly 10 years ago they wouldn't do it. And they have stuck to it. And for me personally, I will leave this game in a heartbeat if they skill it. It was horrible in AW and they left skilled MM very soon after…..but to late to stop hordes of player from leaving.

Skillbased MM won't fix anything other than longer ques and more statshaming and flaming. And what skill would u base it on? Every stat in this game is a paddable stat for those that care.

Just wait for the day when they put in the new easy to balanz class of ships. If u think gameplay is bad now……….just imagine the same playerbase trying to play subs or Counter them. Yeah...…..

Well, for some it doesn't matter what a Company does or doesn't do. They still throw Money at the screen. Just look at the black ships. People actually buy the same ship they already have cause of different colour. This was a success in wot, and it Works here. And as long as People throw Money at their game, they will continue to operate in the manner they do. WG cought alot of flak in wot for their xmas boxes in 2018, it didn't stop them from doing the same last xmas…..and People threw Money at the screen. For me personally, well, I got a bit fed up in november. And I got rly pissed off With the News about them pushing on With the NTC shait, even if the community said no. So the PR grind was for me a big effing no. For the past 2 years I felt wows has become a job and not a game, With endless missions......I just got tired. CV rework took a massive dump on my willingness to put any effort into the game, and I'm just waiting for the massive clusterf*** known as subs to hit the servers. So the short term gain for them is Money, long term gains might be players like me going elsewhere and spending my Money there. For the last 70 days I've played AW. And they have New owners now. And their Battle path mission is fantastically fun and U have 90 days to Complete it, and u get alot of stuff on the way to a tier 10 MBT.

Was going to say something about the 1 v 1 format, but I can't be asked. Not going to touch it.

Anything moved to the RB is bye bye for me. I've already regrinded many lines 4 times cause of different wipes ranging from alpha and last one in beta. I took 1 year off from wows after that cause I was bored out of my mind regrinding lines. And here lies your RB problem, u "force" me to regrind stuff to get other stuff. And "forcing" me to do stuff in a bloody effing game I play to wind down with after hectic weeks, is just a big eff u towards me. At this point I'm so sick and tired of your seemingly never ending shait that I stopped watching streams too. I just log in to get the free stuff these days, can't be asked to do anything more. And this move u propose now.......well....I got other games I can play. Even AW looks like fun at this point.

They shouldn't force me to regrind anything. That's the Whole effing point of why People don't like the NTC. And stuff that's moved to the NTC is stuff I'll never get. I got no problems With special ships there, but no modules or Equipment should be put there…...ever.
