- when you get second place for 240k damage on a losing team, you should reconsider your target selection, people have solo carried teams with a lot less
- your suggestion punishes one player EVERY time, even if he plays well
- your suggestion will punish offensive play, as nobody wants to be the first ship sunk and players will stay back even more and avoid risks
Your missing the point, to get to rank 10 is easy even if you have trolls, that should be where the player split comes in instead of rank 5, if people troll above rank 10 they will not get below it.
As for punishing offensive play WG have already done that this season with CV's. One CV player will counter DD's 1st and ends up winning but not top, while the other CV player gets the early spot and just farms damage while losing and finishes top.
All in all the worst ranked season yet.

Furthermore if you want WG to rely on the reporting system they have put in place then you are totally deluded. You need a system to accurately determined who is AFK on purpose and who is legitimately AFK, which currently you don't have. You do have people being reported for being AFK because they didn't load in before someone else due to a myriad of reasons, ie SSD's Vs Spindrives. No I'm afraid that hound of yours won't hunt.
WG can tell if someone DC's they just cannot be bothered because they don't give a crap about people being able to enjoy the game, they just care about how much money they made this month. Same with the chat bans, people report someone who has not said one offensive word in chat and get banned, because WG will not pay anyone to keep tabs on it.

That will be a welcome change ...
Those that enter Ranked with the intention of trolling will soon quit if they get nothing then the ones who will be left will try, games will go a lot better and more enjoyable. Think about the poor sod who does 240k damage loses and finishes 2nd because he had 3 players on his team who did not try

I did not mention anyone who was disconnected did I? you can tell the AFK players from start of battle as their rear guns turn forward, those who did not connect to game rear guns point to rear

That match will be balanced as long as all the players are IN the match and active.
Basically it is like football, If one of your players sent off you are in a complete disadvantage.
All SBMM, ELO, LEague system games have a respawn mechanic.
basically someone dies, someone comes back into match. Sometimes immediately sometimes with a little delay.
But they come back.
In wows, you don't come back. so even you make both teams balanced perfectly to each other, with the first ship dies it is gonna go down.
Faster than a avelanche. now add this the different classes, different influences etc.
When you add RNG into this game, AFK people, detonations, lucky pens, etc etc..
SBMM ELO etc.. Will never ever work in this game.
You can see this in clan battles actually. It has a league rating system.
you put 2 very good, communicating and balanced teams against each other,
when the first guy dies, usually other team wins..
But people really having hard time to grasp this.
No what I find hard to grasp is when I look at the matchmaking monitor and see I have 3 players in my team with 1 battle in current ship, total team avg WR for ranked being 48% with only 2 players over 50% the rest below 45%. While enemy team with have 57% WR with 3 players with over 60% WR. On top of that you get the AFK players. What WG fail to grasp is simply this. People with 1 battle in a ship, should get put in matches with others of the same caliber you can include the afk players in this group, as you do sod all about them. Never put players without a ranked rating at all in with players fighting for the top group, this happens consistently. This is what pisses most people off in ranked battles period.
Players who AFK in ranked have to play 3 co-op battles before they can enter ranked again, if they AFK again 3 day ban from ranked. Players who finish bottom on winning team do not achieve a star, this will make even the worst offenders try a little.
You try liking a battle to a football game, well think of it like this, you enter a tournament with you fellow WG staff football team, 2 have only just signed up and 1 has asthma. The enemy team consists of a similiar team except they have Ronaldo, Messi and Suarez. Then try calling that balanced, the other thing is you did not get to pick the team lineups, that was done for you, by people who claim it is balanced.

Only good battles now are in clan wars!
Ranked and random are pathetically poor, played 1 ranked game at tier X where 5 team mates total battles added up to less than 4k games, while enemy team had several players with 4x that amount, I did 235k damage 3 kills and still a loss. No different in randoms where I get the CV player with a tier 10 and less than 400 account battles with a 33% WR while enemy get a veteran. If I am on the better side then simply the game is over before it starts, game won with no one getting more than 800 points because we got all caps uncontested.
WG need to sort the MM out to put players with equal games and abilities into opposing teams,. Ranked is toxic enough with half the players being afk, that kind of tells me that the bottom player on winning team should not score a point, at least that way the afk'ers will just lose credits and places fast enough to not matter to those who put an effort in.

Stuck on loading screen after I had to open task manager and close all WG processes manually,. I had to this because I tried to assign a commander to ship and got the constant loading cycle and would not complete or let me exit.

It says all, problem nearly every weekend, but ofcourse its easyer to try to convince players that they have the problem !!!!!!
Thrown off server 3 times today - and with ref. to the link abowe look at 11am today - and then tell me again its my pc/inet connection thats faulty.
Unfortunately most people end up going through the Telia network to get to WG servers. When ever I have connection problems I do trace route and test all connections it goes through. I usually have excellent ping arouind 8ms total to WG servers but unfortunately I can also experience a high amount of packet loss, sometimes 30%+ this is only ever once I reach the Telia network the final connection at WG end is usually without packet loss.
The only solutions to this are either use a VPN or gaming network or persuade WG to move their servers so no one has to endure the crap Telia network.

Don't tell me you have to do it one by one.
I never demount the 1st 2 slots unless it is free, I always sell them and buy new and save my doubloons.

4 hours ago, ColonelPete said:Seriously?
You are three years too late for this discussion.
And no, you do not get chat banned for that.
It was actually a lot longer than 3 years ago. But the patent did state WG could alter the MM based on skill across ALL titles under the WG name. The patent was quite large in definition and must have cost a small fortune to produce.
If you are going to comment by way of fact then at least get the fact right. WG did chat ban players for talking about it. I had several 3 day chat bans myself and 1 mod told me if I mentioned it again in game I would get a permanent chat ban, he then went on to insult my parents and grandparents.
One thing has certainly changed since then, WG mods were quite toxic in chat themselves on WoT but I have never seen that in WoWS. So that is certainly 1 step in the right direction.

On 2/17/2020 at 11:20 AM, Excavatus said:WG is already doing something,
They did it before, they will do that again,
which is, "Declaring that the MM is not rigged but it is random!"
But people who chose not to believe those statements,
what do you suggest WG to do when people don't belive their statements and instead believe only their theories based on their subjective feelings based on very very few number of battles they play?
What do you do for example, when somebody says to you, "I don't believe a single word coming out of your mouth, because I have my own evidence, which is basically what I feel"
WG denied rigging the MM on WoT too, until a link to the US patents office showed they had in fact created a patent for doing exactly that. Then they banned anyone from game chat for a period who mentioned it. So from previous statements made by WG I know for a fact they not only lied about rigging the MM they gave chat bans to silence those that could prove different with real evidence.
I would like to think that WG have changed since that time but excuse me if I don't hold my breath waiting to find out.

how about fixing the abused mechanic where CV players drop early so their planes are immune when they make their real attack run? most abused mechanic in game yet you guys seem to think its okay to have the most moaned about class even more OP.

MM working as intended, balance is fine it works. so will just leave this screenshot here to hear what others think on it.

twice tonight had to endure 2x tier x CV per team in random battles, 1st game only queued for 20 seconds 2nd game just over the minute mark. I thought WG had stated that queue would have to be for longer than a minute to get 2x cv now.
Clearly WG seriously trying to piss everyone else off in the game, so much so if it hapopens again I will simply go straight back to port and take another ship. Absolutely no point in taking a DD to do nothing except stay close to cruisers whole game in the hope of merely staying afloat. I play for my enjoyment and there is no shrugging off a cv or relocating away from it. Just wasted 20 minutes off my time for no enjoyment whatsoever.

Feels like the Venezia has been silently nerfed since the last day, 44 battles average damage of 94k but in last 6 or so battles since yesterday with it, struggled to get any damage at all with SAP 40-60k per battle, plenty of hits on cruisers and BB superstructures but only getting a tickle on them with the odd salvo over 10k

it is crazy that if you put a lot of money in it 8/9/10 tier russian batlle ships and buy them completely
that you are now being kicked off with negative creddits
and not a little bit am not the only one who have problems with this but now also no more money was investing in other but buy a brake but wants something honest back
The Tier 8,9 and X Russian ships out perform just about everything else in this game (check WG stats). So you might find you have to perform better than the average on those ships to get decent credits, but honestly I have hit a kraken over 200k damage and still only made 100k profit on other lines too. If you need credits dont play higher than tier 8 unless you have a Missouri!

On 2/4/2020 at 1:20 PM, Excavatus said:so
let me understand this,
you lost 11 battles in a row,and you believe there is nothing about you in there, it is all your teams fault? which bought together by the MM.
So, in a similar matter, on those 11 battles, people on the enemy team, won, because of the MM and it has nothing to do with their skill and/or play and/or decisions and/or RNG..
all MM..
did I understand correctly?
this is why the MM is a joke, I do not need to post the result of this battle but you can easily guess which team won

Keeping calm is somewhat hard to do, when you cannot complete daily missions, simply because the MM is so biased to one team on player ability and ships, 10 battles all losses while averaging 1780 XP per game. 4x battles this morning with CV players on my team having a minimum 6k battles, playing tier X CV with a winrate in ship of 36% account winrate of 46% and average damage in ship of 23k and 0.2 frags. Balncing you say? I call it [edited].
I know WG like to make teams one sided but as CV's are so influential not putting equal ability CV players as opposition pisses off the other 11 players big time.

On 1/29/2020 at 9:50 PM, Zemeritt said:OMFG, this is not a simulation. Is that so difficult to understand?
The only way this game compares to the real thing is in artwork only, ships with magic armour, Destroyers that do more damage with guns than BB's RNG that is not RNG but WG version of it. Planes that are immune to damage while regrouping. No this game has no link to anything close to what it was like. Forum trolls complain and WG use that as an excuse to nerf every nation except USSR navy with the Khabba being the only exception. Because WG do not have the ability to make ships perform and sustain a game mode to accommodate that, they simply get further and further away from anything that would resemble how it was at sea. Then call it working as intended.

Furitaka is comparable at all, it has long range torpedoes, very good mobility and hits a lot harder with a shorter reload.

What other cruiser at tier 5 has such a slow reload and short firing range?

Not only have WG decided to release new and changed upgrades without testing reliably, they have once again shafted 10-11 players per battle in favour of 2-4 CV's by making the consumables for planes last 50% longer while ships get only 10% extra on some, this simply means that the CV which has a hard counter to AA defense already. with planes being immune to attack while regrouping will now be able to get all their ordinance away without taking damage at all.
I can see everyone taking all AA mods and buffs off ships and captains, as they have 0 effect against an average CV player, and a rise in the number of players exiting battle at start if a CV is in game, tbh I don't blame them, game time is precious for some, and to spend duration of time in battle trying to dodge CV drops when they can simply exit or suicide and take another ship hoping for no CV will become more appealing to a few more that already do that and a few others.

Just because it is not Russian, it does not mean it has to be crap! But it is slow firing very short range no smoke and a huge Citadel
Shells still falling short
in General Discussion
Posted
It happens a lot, aim at water on a static BB at 9km and shells fall way short, aim half way up side of hull, they still fall short, aim at deck guess what? yep still fall short, aim halfway up superstructure fall short, aim near top of superstructure shells fly 2km past. This just goes to show it is solely WG who decide where your shells land with the aim assist they implement it is clear players have very little input as to what happens with the shells after the click.
Personally I do not think WG have any intention of fixing this, it has been mentioned a lot over the years. But hey they made $1.5m from the Puerto Rico event, so clearly not enough of our money taken to up the bandwidth or improve servers. let alone overhaul the broken mechanics. No WG simply prefer the cheaper option, show the player base the proverbial middle finger and bring out another event which you HAVE to spend real money to complete!
Sorry WG you can count me out on this event, no doubt some will pay it but not me, not any more until these mechanics get sorted.
