Going from what's said there "X marks the spot" should finally be recognized as illegal mod. Hard to see them managing to enforce limitation for it tho

They are naming a Amagi class Takao as "Ashitaka" becuase it would be too confusing to have a BB Takao and CA ARP Takao, there's no chance they'll make BB Haruna when they have BB ARP Haruna already

That's actually a good point, I honestly didn't think of that. My best guess is they want to make DDs survive longer, and forcing a DD to not-take the torpedo does exactly that.

@MrConway I'd like to specify one thing: Does this mean that WG finally recognizes "X marks the spot" as illegal mod?

Definitely the Amagi. Such beauty, much power

The last RB season was in July or August, hasn't been here since. I'm guessing you were too low level to participate back then. This game finally has some kind of a tutorial? Whoa, didn't even know Nothing like that, RB is usually running 24/7 for the period when they are active. You might be confusing that with Clan Battles, which run 3 hours per 4 nights each week. You kind of have to be in a clan to participate, also you need tier 10 ships (at least tier 8 to get the rentals) Pretty sure you're talking about CB Or maybe you can educate yourself on what is RB, when and how it is run. Or even what is CB in this case. But no, it's easier to blame WG because you don't understand It's a Test Server for a reason. And as for Chung Mu - once again, if you did your research you'd probably know that it's coming in the Test Round 2 this thursday as there were some problems with the implementation of the mission. That's literally one of the most discussed things on the PTS forum section If both - PTS and Live Server - are glitching for you -> just maybe it might be on your end? Not going to deny that they tend to be a bit shady every now and then, but you do see the connection, right? People don't get slaughtered before they even move, actually with the current meta it's the exact opposite. With the lack of those large BB AP hits games are dragged out longer. Of course one-way-stomps will happen every now and then when one team is clearly superior, but then again - can't blame the good players for working as a team and being better than potatoes (as much as WG is trying to do it) AFKs are rare, and that 1 ship every few games rarely makes any difference. Or you mean the fact that no everyone is loaded in when the game starts and need up to 2 extra minutes? Didn't you yourself say that the game was "glitchy"? Late-loaders are not AFKs And the rest of it is absolute confirmation bias. If you weren't so ashamed of your stats that you have to hide them we might tell you what you are doing wrong... But clearly you are too ashamed of what I expect is a very red stats-page.

No, it will just push those last BBs who are still playing with team further back towards the map edge to join their potato brotherin

That's probably never going to change, it's not as flashy and obvious as "oh darn, I'm spotted because I fired" CL is is still a cruiser, so they will still be hit. I mean, some of them have drafts deeper than some CAs Going by the confusion here I'd say no. So we have to wait for TestRound2 on thursday to get the ChungMu ourselves & test it. Should be clear after that

slow loading, 502s, nothing loading in after @ , emojis not loading... Almost like WG rents their servers from Ubisoft

Must have been quite an early teaser then, if 4 months is not far enough away

Even if every single one of those 21 962 games was a loss, that still would bump the WR down to just 53.85% But yeah, as @ThePurpleSmurf said - the player has to be searched for it to be tracked / updated. Also when was the last update matters, as the site doesn't get any new data on the player till someone opens his stats once more. And to be fair... that 56% really isn't that hard to believe, it's Saipan after all. You have to be extra special to do badly in it. Tin foil hats on boys - probably a big reason for that WR being so low is that Saipans [most likely] often meet other Saipans forcing it to average closer to 50%

I'm sure you'll love PA DDs then, a whole line made with the exact purpose of countering players exactly like you

Be careful with that, saw a post getting pretty much cleared out and closed for mentioning that chat ban system is somehow flawed so don't go spreading around such lies, we don't need any of that! (and to the mod checking this - I'm not discussing moderation, just informing fellow forum posters that they might be breaking the rules here)

All conversations with support are seen as "private", so there is no name censoring necessary. If there is someone obviously botting - send support a ticket with description, replay, maybe some screenshots. Even the accounts statpages from something like wows-numbers or warships.today may be helpful. This has actually been the only case where I've found the support to really be any kind of useful (I mean, direct bug / problem reports may be useful aswell, but there you always have the "we'll look into it, but no promises") - reported one like that, and "it" hasn't played a battle since, and that's quite a while by now.

Because giving cruisers and BBs even more reasons to stay as far back as they can is going to improve the game in positive way As far as I know the DWTs tested on GZ are able to hit only BBs and CVs, meanwhile DWTs on PA DDs can hit everything except DDs. So that would be all cruisers. But we have to wait for TestRound2 to finally get the tier 9 and actually test how it works Actually, probably no. Not to go on long explanations how the see-through-smoke works, but basically all smoke within that radius of you becomes see-through an no further. What's the range usually for DDs? Like 2.6km? So even at 4km range the DD would be able to freely fire at a target in smoke without getting spotted by him. But the point overall remains correct imo, we'll see a lot of them yolo-rushing and dying because of it Pretty sure that you don't get the "incoming torpedo" warning if the torpedo is too deep for you. And if you have enough awareness to notice them without the warning - you probably can differentiate between the symbols of normal or DW torpedo Learnt habit to dodge incoming torps. Same thing as getting adjusted to the smoke changes - in the long term it doesn't matter, but for a patch or two people will have to get adjusted to this idea Point to 1 single change for BBs where WG has promoted teamwork and positive / correct gameplay. All they do is push BBs further and further back and nerf every last chance of teamwork you could get out of them. Well, I guess the "repair cost is always the same" could count, but that's literally the only one I can think of Let me guess, they FEEEEL good when you go with Air Supremacy and f you if you think it's bad build because it works and becuase it's great and becuase not everyone should stick to the meta!

Ahh, I see it now. Yeah, those 2 should probably be swapped around

Yeah, it was confirmed quite a long time ago that all it does is changes the IJN green to blue like on other nations, I think there was something about people complaining that the IJN green looked "bad" and they wished to have the "normal" blue Personally I prefer the green anyway And lets face it - if you could choose the color by yourself - most people would just paint their ship bright pink. At least I know I would

or 13.5km range stock Fusos vs Iowas I stand with @KubusSc7 on this one. When I play my 8s it's a celebration every time it's not a tier 10 game, they are rare. I've had moments where I've been going 31-ish games in a row as 8 vs 10s. Generally speaking at least 4 of every 5 will be tier 10 games. Want proof? Ok, starting today I'll start just saving all MMs I've had, and every now and then post a statistics "update". Just wait for it

t8 are getting shafted and will get shafted as long as everyone can afford to play t10 without losing money, a.k.a. by just sticking a premium camo on the ship or buying premium acc. This will lead to more and more tier 10s, who then drag more and more t8s in their battles. If you have prem camo or prem acc you don't really need to go back to mid-tiers to grind credits to support your tier 10s, they support themselves. That's it, more or less nothing to do with the fact that 4s can't meet 6s (and they really shouldn't be able to) As for @SeeteufeI and @ForlornSailor mentioned tiers -> I've said it multiple times and will keep saying this -> artificial battle tiers 11 and 12 would solve a lot of problems battle tier 10 -> ships of tiers 8, 9 and 10 battle tier 11 -> ships of tiers 9 and 10 battle tier 12 -> ships of tier 10 This would relieve 8s immensely, as well as giving 9s a bit more chance at being top tier every now and then. That would follow up as more 7s pulled out of their infinite top tier games which would relieve 5s of their infinite bottom tier matches. Well, at least I think it would.

Let me guess, it FEELS to you like he's right? Lost my respect to Notser a long time ago, all this "feels like it's like that" always leads to nothing.

Yeah, teamwork is nice... but if you take the bullet for your team you now have to rely on up to 11 potatoes to carry in your place. It's like communism - great theory, never works in practice.

Well it's not supposed to be fast unless you want to drop over 100 Eur in doubloons

What do you mean? The order? In eastern countries the surname comes before the name.

As far as I know you get the same choices as on Baltimore -> 1) Heal 2) Hydro / DefAA 3) Radar / Plane And probably no changes on it, at least as far as consumables are concerned

30th November for PA DDs, give some 2-ish months after that for FR BBs, and then probably some month later... so probably late February to early March
