But my point is this: You dont have to do really well in cvs to annoy the ever living soul out of surface ships, you just have to do something. Surface ships dont see the performance difference between bad and pro carrier players, all they see is guaranteed damage heading their way every 30 seconds, from something that they cant spot, counter or damage. Honestly, i have never ever seen anyone write "woho, there are carriers in this battle". On the other hand, space battles comes out, and when asked what they like best about it, most of the people ive asked says "No carriers". Seriously, a new game mode with new game mechanics and the ability to test most tier 10 ships in the game, and the most liked feature is that carriers arent featured in it? That is not good game design, it just isnt.
-
I can deal with them, that doesnt mean tho that i think they are good for the game. And im sorry but no, artillery in wot requires zero skill to do decent in, and if you look at the minimap every two minutes, you are immune to light tanks, if those kill you, you really are afk.
-
Well the new carrier system has exactly the same issues as wot artillery does. Underwhelming for the carrier player, and super annoying for the surface ships. Its all down to that guaranteed safe damage output that surface ships can do nothing about, While requiring little skill on behalf of the carrier. "No skill safe reward" is never a good idea in any game, its stupid.

Discussion thread for "some interesting info around the world"
thiextar replied to Deamon93's topic in General Discussion
"10% ap limit applied"(check the interesting info around the world thread) What does that even mean? -
1. Nothing can be done about the squadrons first strike, its guaranteed to get through, which leads to safe damage 2. Planes regenerate simultaneously in three different squads, as long as you dodge flak and dont charge minos, you pretty much have infinite planes. 3. Decent cv players can make themselves pretty much immune to flak, and all the aa skills have been shafted so hard that fire prevention is now more useful vs carriers than all the aa skills combined. Previously carriers had a hardcap on the amount of planes they could bring, aa was devastating and aa skills actually worked, this meant that if you made slight mistakes, you basically killed yourself by making yourself useless. The new carriers are so idiot-proofed that you pretty much have to kill the carrier itself to get rid of them, something that is impossible if they look at the minimap once a minute. So yeah, id say they are pretty much a no-risk guaranteed reward class.

I hope there will be, a no-risk safe class should also come with the disadvantage of being weak in comparison to the not-so-safe classes.

How can we add more interaction to: Airplanes versus surface ships?
thiextar replied to LemonadeWarriorITA's topic in General Discussion
Wargaming have made it very clear right now that they want carrier gameplay to be simple enough for your averege vegetable. Anything that isnt action is too complicated, cyka.- 75 replies

On a sidenote, is it possible to get something like matchmaking monitor to display all time stats rather than per ship? Cause i use it for recruiting people to my clan, and ive found that the per-ship stats are very misleading because they usually have a much too small sample size.
-
Also what you do have to realise is that there is not a single high tier ship that plays like the omaha. The omaha is a low tier ship which is designed to be forgiving and easy to play. Meanwhile all high tier ships require pre-planning and good positioning to work at all, you cant just run around in circles spamming he at everything as you can in the omaha, so id recommend to not get bogged down with stats like turret traverse and such, because if you like the omahas playstyle, that means you like kiting, so you should be looking for a kiting ship. The two best kiting ships at t10 are zao and henry. The zao is a mid-long range stealthy kiting ship with highly accurate high damage he salvos. It has some very good 12km torpedoes that can be great in certain situations. Other than that, the zao is a great firestarter. Meanwhile the henry is a long range super-fast kiting ship that has no camo at all, with very high dpm guns which can get boosted further with its reload booster. The henry is very good at dodging and is nigh impossible to hit properly at long ranges with speed boost active. Oh and it can mount ifhe to farm those 50mm bows. You wont find anything at high tiers which resembles the omahas palystyle, as said playstyle is a symptom of being a low tier ship, but the zao and henry is probably the closest you can get.

Do you actually like space battles or rather have other content ?
thiextar replied to Beastofwar's topic in General Discussion
Honestly, wargaming is a company, they need to make money. Id rather they sell overpriced camos than making money by selling gambling crates with op ships in them. My only issue with the space camos is that they need to make fires much clearer on them, currently they do provide you an advantage by concealing fires. -
Realisticly you should go back to playing tier 1 to 6 for a while to try and learn the basics of the game. It takes a long time to learn this game, and its not a good idea to rush to high tier until you have mastered the basics. All that will happen is that you will get stomped by more experienced players. Id start with up on all the game mechanics on the wiki: http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Gunnery_%26_Armor_Penetration http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Detection http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Torpedoes http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Fire http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Flooding http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Other_Mechanics Also id recommend watching youtubers like flamu, he gives great advice and explains why and what is happening at any given situation: https://www.youtube.com/user/cheesec4t/videos Also, if you are interested, here is a site where you can check your stats: https://wows-numbers.com/player/528517617,Abrakeydabra/?

Friedrich der Große 183 secondary hits 0 damage.Not acceptable
thiextar replied to Puffin_'s topic in General Discussion
they did 12642 fire damage. I do agree tho, the issue is that they aim for the belt armor wich they cant pen. Secondarys really need to aim for the deck. -
Losing both main batteries is a mix of aim and rng, but in this case its like 99% rng to be perfectly honest

Also i feel like tis worth adding that good aim is the smallest difference in the game between a bad and a good player. You get better aim by just playing and getting used to it, it will make you a little bit better, but it really is the smallest variable. The most important factors of a good player is: 1. Positioning, being able to read the map, analyse whats happening, being able to predict what is going to happen and using that information, make sure that you are in the right position at the right time. This is the most difficult thing to learn, and will take thousands of battles. 2. Knowledge of game mechanics, learning all the rules, formulas and mechanics behind the game, without knowing this, you cant know the optimal way to act in any given situation 3. Ship knowledge, knowing(atleast roughly) the stats, strengths and weaknesses of every ship in the game. Without knowing this, its impossible to predict anything, and you wont know how to take on any particular engagement. Just outlined this to sorta show that the very good players that you keep getting thrown in with arent beting you with their aim, they are beating you with their knowledge and experience. If all the new players got bunched up together, they would have no one to learn from, and would probably never improve. Sure its annoying when you are a new player to die by pros, but it does give the opportunity to try to learn from what they did.

thiextar replied to Beastofwar's topic in General Discussion
Agreed, no camo should give a gameplay advantage. I really dont care how crazy camos they make, so long as: 1. They dont give a false interpretation of the ships hitbox. 2. They dont have particle effects that are harder to see than the default ones. The space camos breaks point 2. -

You can get one module by just playing... It was confirmed both in a dev livestream and here on the forum. Some people originally calculated incorrectly that you could get like 555 ironium, but that turned out false. You can get like 780 or something thereabouts, cant remember exactly -

thiextar replied to Beastofwar's topic in General Discussion
Doesnt matter what skin you give the ships, if its the same gameplay, and the ships have the same stats, its the same content. The content we are recieving/testing is a pvp attack defend gamemode, and the gameplay would be exactly the same no matter if its spaceships/historical ships/mylittlepony theme. Also what is wrong with people who cant create an unbiased poll for their life? For an unbiased poll, the options should be: 1. I enjoy it very much 2. I enjoy it a bit 3. I dont really care either way 4. I dont really like it 5. I hate it Simple, concise, and unbiased, how hard can it be? Don't say that -
If it happens in more games than wows, its most likely a problem attached to your computer, not the game itself. Id suggest the following: -Check to make sure your physical headset/sound device is working properly -Wipe your sound drivers and reinstall them -Check windows sound settings for any abnormalities -If you are using some external software for sound management(For example logitech gaming software or razer synapse) Try reinstalling those. -Try to hardware reset your headsets firmware and update it to the latest version -Try different usb ports -Try reinstalling the game
-
Im pretty sure they cant sadly, atleast i know they cant transfer accounts between servers. Anyhow, you should be ready for the possibility that you may have to create an entirely new account

244 battles are not a lot, and you can quickly get up the tiers if you want. Trust me tho, the windows store is the most horrible and buggy piece of software ever invented, so you definitely do not want to get stuck with it even if you can fix the crashes you are currently experiencing, the longer you play on the windows store account, the more you lose when you will inevitably have to switch sadly. It really is worth it to switch to a proper account and standalone launcher while you still havent got very far into the game, i really cant recommend that enought.

Concerning upcomming CV changes and Harugomu AA spec?
thiextar replied to Hannibalurg's topic in General Discussion
This is pretty much the meme build: https://worldofwarships.com/en/content/captains-skills/?skills=1,8,9,13,23,28,33&ship=Destroyer You need ifhe in every haru build, and you need demo expert for maximum meme potential. Funny thing is, this build works really well for randoms, as long as you are careful, and play it more like a light cruiser than a destroyer, id say its probably the best build for randoms, even if its a meme build. -
Look around the forum for a bit, the only times you see devs posting or answering anything is in threads that have massive upvotes, tons of people commenting, and a very good idea/question. If they were to engage every entitled person on the internet, they would have no time to actually develop the game. But for all matter, sit here and wait until april 2021 for a dev to dig this out of the archive and give you the same answer as me and the other guy did, anyways, im giving up on you now.
