Maybe it is a when it's doneTM

I would guesstimate "out of OBT".

Yes

This is working correctly. The replays start the client and it looks like starting a battle. But it is the replay.

If you just want to have the Diana, maybe. However, you can get a 1:700 scale model of the Bismarck from Revell for 20€ (or even less) ... not so familiar with ship model prices... but 40 bucks seems quite high.

Selfquote, because, now we have this funny video series by WG (http://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/videos/bad-advice-pilot/). I feel vindicated, in demanding a goldfish in a bowl.

I like the Fubuki much more than the Hatsuharu. What is a must, however is the Improved Concealment Upgrade for 2M creds. With that, your detectability goes down to 6.3 km base, which is better than in Hatsuharu. Furthermore, second hull with improved guns is a blast. 25 seconds turret rotation is awesome (for IJN standards). After that, it is not so important if you use the 10 or 15 km range torps. You should do ok with both. More than that, you really need to go, where the enemy CV do not send their planes to... else, it gets really hard. Target choice is more problematic, because most players are rather good in evading now. Allways try to single out targets, that are somehow engaged. Ambush tactics still work fine and you can easily sink any ship from up close.

I searched for this, but couldn't find a recent topic... so I start a new one: I would like to see every applied upgrade, camo-paint, captain's skill in brackets or somehow differently colored represented in the ship stats in port, when looking at my ships. At the moment I need to calculate the real detection range of my DDs by hand, or I do not see the real reload time or turret traverse... Would be really helpful.

LOL

Wait, since when are JoeAverage Pubbies looking at the minimap... But, yeah, could be a bit helpful... however... the minimap is not really detailed enough...

We, as CBT/OBT players were never supposed to test new ship designs. We are here to generate tons of in battle data, so that WG can make statistical analysis of game mechanics and ship performance. Testing of the ships prior to release is an internal process.

The hydroacustic search enables you to do two things: 1) you build a torp spotting bubble around you with 2.5 km radius... this is approximately 1 - 1.2 km more spotting distance than without. This allows you to screen your team (and partially yourself) from torps. 2) the 3.5 km spotting of ships works regardless of line of sight, so you can also use it to reveal ambushes behind islands or keep enemies spotted, when they are out of sight normally. And really... Kuma, Phoenix and Omaha (+ similar hulls) are strong enough at their respective tier... only Furutaka lacks a bit... so you just get more bling, that may be used in certain situations. No further buffs needed... Omaha could potentially need a nerf...

I do not get what you are stating... Until last patch, all T4 & T5 cruisers did not have any additional consumable (except fighter planes). Now you get Hydroacustic Search added for nil, and you are complaining? The AA consumable was allways limited to T6+...

Between 17.00 and 18.00 hours today, the peak was closer to 37-38k... that is ~3k more than a week ago.

To be a bit more correct here, length scales in WoWS are not fitting reality. As far as I remember, BBs are something around 600-800m ingame.

In this case it is part soft launch, part beta... so I think, it is Ok... 1) Weekend events will come 2) Missions are a bit boring, granted, but they also give really low rewards, so nothing important here 3) Although everything costs much more, the gross income is much higher than in WOT and the overall tier progression is (from my observation) much faster than in WOT. 4) lack of permanent camo... is that really such an issue? 5) at least Sovjets, Kriegsmarine and Royal Navy are coming for sure. So overall, I think, people tend to judge much to fast and do not allow themselves to really try it out.

Many and more companies in the gaming industry used the term beta test to sell pre-access to "finished" (pun intended) games. Sure, WG allready earns money with the premium economy, but it is however still a beta... and a quite fresh one...

Lol?!? 37.000+ average players online at peak times during summer holidays after 1 month of OBT, which is quite early in development terms... and you srsly critizise that player numbers are not rising? I laughed....

It is also based on the percentage of damage done to the target. So 100% damage done to a DD will give more XP/creds than doing 30% to a BB of same tier. Even though 30% of a BB's HP might be more than 100% of a DD's HP.

+1 to Sub_Eleven... I agree to his comments. One additional thing: I guess you mean sneaking along the border behind enemy lines? If (big if) you manage to do so, and sink the enemy CV... GG, well played, or, not so well played from the enemy. Mostly you will not manage to get through without being spotted. And if they know you are there, they will hunt you. In many cases, you encounter either other DD at the edges of the map, or the CV sends his TB along the map edge. In both cases, you get spotted.

Reliability might be represented by damage per torp. But this is just me guesstimating.

In defense of the devs, when you reach Account Level 2 there is a big pop-up screen, that explains, what you got for reaching level 2... and that is PvP... so maybe, just maybe, read what you see ingame?

1) After reaching Account Level 2 switch to PVP, Co-Op battles are against bots and yield very low XP/credits 2) Either activate the alternative HUD in settings permanently or press and hold ALT key during battles. This shows you a lot of additional information 3) Royal Navy ETA is end of 2016

Wooops... do you play Co-Op battles? They are only for "training" purpose and give you much much lower income. Change to PvP.
