    Questions to players

    its enough to make my brain melt, they treat their ships as if they are made of tissue paper.

    Why are Battleships so insanely weak ?

    BB's are weak because you have top get a lamb, and offer it up as a sacrifice to RNGesus every time you pull the god-damn trigger. Secondaries aren't worth the time the devs put into modeling them at the moment. A warm breese passes them by and they catch on fire. But they wont do anything about it other than superficial changes (fcuking 3km? really?) because they dont want them to be to powerful.
  3. So what happens if they get a pipeline for mods to be submitted? CCP did it. anything the community submitted to them to be a part of the game, CCP owned the rights to, caused no end of problems. its not a huge leap for WG to do a similar thing, all you would have to do is put it in the T&C's.
  4. fair point and i agree with you that i can be very cynical (ask my wife XD) it wont stop me playing the game if they do monitize it, and it wouldn't surprise me if they did, but i wont spend a penny more on the game.
  5. its more of an indicater to how money grubbing WG can be. Critical thinking and cynicism go hand in hand from my experience. Before this goes any further, however, and a mod, dev or whatever comes along and edits my posts. I want to state that i am hoping that I do NOT want what i am talking about to happen.
  6. and WG past actions aren't evidence enough? cost of premium ships for example. They have already encrypted the files, is that evidence enough? I will maintain that they are trying to monitize mods (like steam tried to) until they either, come out and say that they aren't, or un-encrypt the files.
  7. what, dont you have any critical thinking skills, or do you just believe everything anybody says to you? WG is a business, and money is their bottom line, if you cant see that, then their is no hope. or should i just listen and believe? be a mindless zombie that accepts everything put in front of me?
  8. Everyone does realise that this could, and most likely will be, YEARS away, dont you? The entire concept of "saving space" is a smoke screen, its bull, the download isn't that big, and its not like have to re-download the entire thing every patch. These "tools" that will, ever so graciously, be provided, come at a real world cost, by any chance? Will this "official mod pack" come at any real world cost? You can say its made by a different dev team, but you all operate under the same flag, and that flag has made some damn poor decisions (this is one of them). The fact that you label anything that criticises WG as "anti-WG" or sarcasam is very telling, its almost on Gaijin levels of group think. As I have said, multiple times, I think they are onto a winner with Warships, I have sank quite a bit of money into it already, however, you need to police yourselves for bonehead decisions.

    Appeal to WG

    Please, for the love of jebus and everything unholy, reduce the RNG on BB's Just had a battle in my fuso, landed 7 shells, only did 1030 damage, the guy wasnt angled, it was a Myogi. This is stupid, i should NOT have to give a blood sacrifice every time i pull the trigger. Then you let CV's drop torps (what feels like) 2 inch from the side of you ship, where you cant dodge them and there are NO dud torps, EVERY ONE detonates? (Dont give me that turn towards the planes, the planes move a damn site faster than you can turn) Seriously, am i the only one that notices this kind of thing? Please WG, you are onto a winner with this game, but their are somne glaring issues here that need sorting out.

    i know how to hit citadels, under the stacks and turrets. Its the god damn RNG.

    Atago results

    This is for those that are whining about the Atago. She is an awesome piece of kit, you just have to know how to use her.

    Simple feature request

    OK, so i noticed this in a match i just had, was on ocean and i was in an aoba. I thought i'd do the gentlemanly thing to do and provide AAA cover for the BB's on our team, as i'm extremely bad (usually) on this map. The feature that i would like to see is when you Ctrl + LClick on a friendly, you match speed with whoever you clicked (or go full ahead if target can go faster than you). This would make escorting a bit easier, as you have one less thing to juggle and may even encourage people to stick together (wishful thinking on my part) What do you guys think? Stupid or reasonable?

    Where to hit a ship to cause fire

    in my experience as a BB captain, HE doesn't even have to hit to cause fires, a near miss will do it.

    0.4.1 Patch question

    Ok, so having read the psuedo patch notes, and having read the . . . errr . . . "buff" . . . to BB's, i can only conclude that something is seriously amiss. Who fights with a BB at less than THREE KILOMETERS!?? i mean, really? i've never even brought my BB within 4KM, its stupid, i mean, seriously stupid. Can someone explain the logic behind this? is the short range buff going to have a knock on effect on the mid and long range accuracy? is it only going to effect shells fired at targets less than 3km away, and if a targets at 4km, your shells are still going to either try and hit the moon, or bury themselves in the drink? Any and all advice is needed and welcome, as im seriously scratching my head at this.

    It's normal?

    have you restarted the client? maybe update your graphic drivers?

    Simple feature request

    My apologies for not being clear, i wasn't meaning auto pilot, i just meant speed only, no steering. as its a constant pain to juggle between 1/2, 3/4 and full.
  18. Right, so this applies more when im in a battleship than a cruiser, due to a cruiser being a lot more nimble. What can i do when i a bunch of torp bombers drop trops (what seems like) directly on top of me? I cant turn as it takes to long, i have (usually) less then 5 seconds to do something about it, what i try and do is go full reverse and hard left or right (depending on angles) but i usually still east between 4 or 6. Then i get Dive bombers on my case as well. I'm not going to whine about this being stupidly OP, or anything of the sort (even though it is), i just want to know what i can do about it, as most cruisers dont give a flying fcuk about providing AA cover.

    No more Mods after Patch 4.1 ?

    they would do it because WarGaming, sense they have non of. they could outsource it, to my (very limited XD) knowledge, it would just be able to read the encrypted files, so you can mod them and then submit them to WG. As long as it cant re-encrypt them for placement into the client files, it should be usable from a WG point of view. I think that we should riot if they do monatize mods, a la EvE Online style when CCP tried to get money grubby, flood the forums with nonsense threads, spam tickets, spam PM's to the mod's/devs etc etc. I doubt it would do any good though.

    No more Mods after Patch 4.1 ?

    is their ANY possibility that only the test server is encrypted? and when it goes live, it will un-encrypted? a long shot, but its our only hope at the moment. As I have said since we heard about this idiocy, what will happen is they will release some sort of tool that will allow mod makers to build mods, which they will then submit to WG, who will have an installer of some kind, that people will have to pay real money to have access to. It all comes down to money at the end of the day.

    Congratz torpedo-whiners, you win

    its not destroyers that need nerfed, its torpedo bombers, the ability to launch then in a (basically) undodgable position is stupidly OP.

    Captain skill points

    is there a hard limit to them? with enough grinding and XP, could you unlock all perks on one captain?

    No more Mods after Patch 4.1 ?

    is that before of after you take a stock boat up aginst a fully upgraded one? for the love of god people, there is a vast differen between mods, which are by their nature, innocent things such as skins and UI changes, and hacks/cheats, which are designed to givew the user a head start.

    No more Mods after Patch 4.1 ?

    they plan to charge RL money for it, there is NO other explantion for how heavy handed they have reacted
  25. do you know if the UI pack from 20.3cm is working still?
