No I don't trust you and I wouldn't trust myself on that matter, nor anyone else. 50 games is basically almost worthless as a statistical measure.

Dear national lottery. it's a 1 to 1 000 000 000 chance to win. Yet 2 - TWO - people won last week while it should have been only ONE! Next time please make me the second guy as CLEARLY this is a conspiracy from you, dear national lottery, to spesifically make me lose.

nono, you make 1000 matches without prem then you make 1000 matches with prem. And then you also account for that this is not a blind test and you might unconsciously play better just to prove your point. And then you have to play the same ship(s) all the time.. etc.

it just shows you dont understand statistics. Its like flipping a coin once and going "waaah, it's 100% tails/heads! it's a rigged coin"

Sure, post screenshots of 1000 battles (no 50 isn't even close to being a significant number) and we'll see. And 1000 in a row, no cherry picking. and even then you are aware randomness might leave you on the worse side of teams? edit, bit fast in posting: since your MM sucks so much the last 50 battles, it doesn't seem to affect you much, in fact you're doing better than your average...

Well then they are playing for damage, not to get xp anyways, which means having them on your team is most likely increasing your chance to lose. losing gives less xp. Sure there will be such players on the enemy team, but if you div up with your friends - that means YOUR team is guaranteed to have "losing damage farmers" while the enemy team MIGHT get more useful players. In the long run that is more losses for you. How is that WGs fault in any way or capacity?

Confirmation bias or excessively bad luck. and like @Northern_Nightowl points out, ~50 games is insignificant. edit: another option is that seeing you have the "worse team", you give up either consciously or unconsciously. I mean you see this even on people without MM monitor that go "omg another LOSE!" (btw it's LOSS!!). Then they either yolo or play too passive...and lose AND come out really poorly on the xp part.

If you can't stop it being 2 coordinated people, you're not going to stop it with 2 random people doing their own thing. In a losing battle, we usually can smoke eachother up and keep banging at the enemy to the bitter end, which comes way later than the random people trying this. On the rare occations this means the two coordinated ones will do a good enough job to tip the balance in our teams favour. If its a complete overrun you lose anyways, but proabably both will STILL get more xp and damage. Why would I do damage if spotting is more effective to win? and winning gives more xp? You also didn't read that i frequently end up MORE OFTEN being top 3 player on the team when he is around, despite babysitting him?

didn't pay anything for the last 4 years. Yet even yesterday I had 12-0 steamrolls and my winrate has been slowly inching up all the years. PROOF! etc...

A single instance is no proof for anything. WG wants money, we all know that.

Again, despite spoonfeeding him, his presence allows me to often completely own the area we are in. It's called helping eachothers, or mutual benefit. I really dont think you are grasping what I am saying. I gain a lot by having him tagging along. its a PLUS to have him there for me.

I have.. maybe not "all the premiums" but when MOST of their list is premium ships, yet they completely stink.... its mind numbing.

Well, right now I'm helping a reasonably casual guy to level up his Neptune, a rather unforgiving line, but I said it's fun so.. he went for it ;) Anyways, I almost always play some ship that fit with his, usually Black, Friesland and Kitakaze (grinding it). I almost always give him my smoke as he follows up behind me and always spot for him if possible. Yet despite not being some unicum, I frequently end up in top 3 on our team. Just the fact that despite not being the best lead, his presence protects me, offers me extra hydro and smoke (upon my command ) makes life WAY more easy for myself, despite the whole purpose of my presence being to assist him in getting good positions, smoke and dealing damage.

I love to spot and smoke for my div mates, just as I would do that for random teammates. The difference is that with divmates, I can scream LOUDLY to my less experienced members stuff like "STOP STOP STOP! GO INTO MY SMOKE NOW! TURN INTO THE ENEMY! TURN ON HYDRO!! SHOOT THE KITAKAZE! NONO LEFT SIDE!! NOT THE BISMARCK!! KITAKAZE!!!!" and actually get a response. With random you'll smoke them, and they'll sail straight through and out the other side, even if the smoke would save their sorry behinds. I dont see how this is in any way self centric...

Thruths are kind of easy to give when the question is about hard numbers...

Where is the option "airstrikes are farking annoying just like CVs and all of the other planes!"? A real pity because I really enjoy games where there are various options including CVs and airstrikes and whatnot. Just doesn't work well in WoWs

You should have been here long enough to know that a suggestion like "for a small fee, we can make the detonations go away!" is the only thing that works. Opinions are not valid in WG.

I really wish Lesta was on the public stock markets. They must suck in so much money for nothing....

The only real "vote" that has any vague effect would be for everyone to go vote negative in steam. It would probably just be a minor bump in the road though..

I do, but I'd rather join in on a new installment of such games. Meanwhile I suppose the all-pyanodon factorio will kill some time. The lack of new maps are amazing tbh. Just makes some quickly, test them and see which are popular.

a fair answer. I'd rather buy a game for €50+ than suffer with the edit that WoWS managed to cram into itself. Same with WoT for that matter. I voted 4 though, because all the bullcrap really disappoints me. edit: I'd love to see StarCitizen come alive .. but that'll probably be around when I go to my retirement home...

I did. Give me a good game. I'm very picky though.

My point is (and as far as i can see,you agree with me). DDs hunting the CV is generally not a problem for the CV and usually they end up doing nothing and mostly die. CV need no "rockets for self defence".

@Beastofwar lives in a different reality than most. I've also seen DDs trying to hunt down CVs. with the few exceptions that it's endgame anyways, it tends to mean the DD is spotted either by planes or starting to shoot too early. Then dies to rocketspam, alternatively to incoming fire because he tried to sneak past the enemy too early. edit: did i forget that CVs are generally reasonably speedy, so most DDs will never catch up to one..

And then you are spotted, you have to retreat, most likely lose another 2-3k to various incoming fire. If you're really "lucky" your engine and rudder blows out by that "single" rocket hit. Then you'll get a fire or two going once you've fled and been hit by various other shells. aaand the CV is ready to be on you again.
