Risky old chap you on tanks this weekend? may see you.. I Fancy some more Dinnger Teammatches I think free XP cant be combined as the XP rewards in ships tend to be higher than tanks. So using Ships to farm free xp for tanks could become a problem. Also I find the need to use free XP in ships is a lot lower than it is in tanks. In most cases a stock Ship is still more than capable of performing when bottom tier when a tank can in WOT will struggle and or use gold when bottom tier in order to perform. Point of case i have 17.5k games in tanks i have 186k free CP 2162 games in Ships I have 146K free XP Just seems easer to stack up free XP in ships and still perform Ok

For many its the complete opposite.. The amount of bundles in WOWs and the lack of in game content has ment many of us have built up a large amount of Gold in ships but nothing to spend it on. More Gold in WOWS will not rely make much difference to the game as there is very little in game to spend it on. Its also annoying to those that maybe have 6 or 7K gold in each game could spend it on a High tier prem in ships or tanks if they were combined. As Dubloon/gold cost exactly the same amount in terms of real money there realy is no reason for WG not to combine

ok im not that bright missed the sarcasm..

If they are working together and focusing there fire they can be deadly! But the issue here is not that A Shimakazi is Over performing as stats dont support this. The issue to me seems to be DD's working together to launch a huge amount of torps to a small area of map! This suggests divisions. Personally I agree with you!! A balanced DD/CA/BB or even CV division is a much better division as fare as them taking the team to a win.

Ow please i think there is a large Exaggeration there!!! Your saying 75% of time you take a tier 8 ship out you are in a tier 10 game!! and of them times there are always 1 or 2 shimacazi on enemy team!! you have a HUGE HUGE amount of bad luck.

It was to easy to get the +50% flags before! The Kraken is hard at the moment and hope it may change a bit (though i got it 2 games in a row on my Phoenix in the last days). I only use this flag for the grind to upgrade never for the grind to next ship but i currently have over 260 of these flags

No he is an expert in DD game play in his tier 6 DD..... I will often use stats to dispute claims that the game is always heavy in one ship or another if the numbers don't support it! But i will never say this ship or that ship or the other tier is easy unless i have been there! However many on the forum don't think the same. Is a Shimikaze easy to counter i should think not after all its a top tier DD and probably the one of the best in game! Well after the Błyskawica of cause! (in my experience the most balanced DD up to tier 7) The only thing i think WG should maybe do is limit the numbers of a class of ship in a division! 3 DD or 3BB together on team speak is a Huge advantage. Maybe WG should make it that a division of 3 MUST have 2 classes of ship. The same data source as i have used before in this thread http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/index.html Shows the average Damage of the Shimakaze is by no means the highest in tier 10. with almost all Tier 10 BB/CA/CV having better winrate and Damage (substantially better damage). would suggest the Shimakaze is neither easy to play or OP

First 7-7 generally means low server player count so strange MM is to be expected. Of course there is the occasional game with very heavy DD presence in the same way there are sometimes heavy CA or BB but the figures i posted suggest its the exception not the Norm as many on this thread are saying

Spam torpedoes when you have a two and a half min reload!! Good luck with that. Also in this time in a NC you can shoot 5 salvoes or 45 shells! I am pretty sure you can expect many more than 1 or 2 hits from those 5 broadsides

Completely true have a +1 from me

in some regions i believe you can buy stuff with the pearls!! hence the Available as in available to spend

Look they have given us a reward!! I should hope to be on 117 perls by end of tonight! need 10 kills and 5 wins!! So am well on cause for 260! I relay hope Hope they keep All 2000 ships for the Lottery! They have listened and made a change be happy for that

Kill quest are a pain true ! But WOWS is not too bad for it!! of the 21 Project R quests 6 are kills.... of the ARP challenges 2 of the 6 are for kills.. Of the daily mission in rotation cant think of any that require kills. (could be wrong on this) his is hardly over the top...

Simple! if they restricted Ammo with even semmi realistc values there would be no issue in game! Example HMS Belfast carried 200 rounds PER gun. how often in your Cleveland would you fire 2400 shels ina 15 min game HMS Rodney in the action against Bismark fired 340 16inch shells thats almost 38 salvoes with a 30sec reload it would take 19mins off fire! (longer than game) and Rodney did not fire all her stocks.. God Even a mark VII U boat carred 220 rounds for there 88mm gun and u boats had HUGE space issues

it should be obviase! But agree a voice saying You have killed friendly planes should not be a problem.

Dont play Russion DD's then! they have 4KM torps till tier 7 and even at tier 8 you must upgrade hull and Torps before you get 8km ones.

I was a little surprised as you are pretty much on the ball when it comes to this game!!!! was just making Sure...

my only tier 8 is Tirpitz so i don't see to many tier X matches! Chasing to many lines of ships! only one i am not doing is JAP CV. I guess you must be very unlucky to get Shimas so often. As the figures suggest it douse happen so much! MAybe you should change the time of day you play!!! Note in tier 9 and 10 DD's make up Approximately 40% of ships brought to battle. CA 25% BB 30% CV 5% And of that 40% DD 31% are JP DD's 11% are JP CA and 6% KM CA. so in tier 9 and 10 57% of ships have Torps... or 62% if you count CV

The way MM works in Divisions is it looks at the highest tier ship and ALL the div gets that ships MM. So if he is with a tier 9 ship there is a very good chance he will see tier X ships.

The biggest issue in the game at the moment is Fail divisions! Just in case this term is new to you Its when a player teams up with high tier ships and gets in to matches they cant normally get in to...

source http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/20160116/eu_week/average_ship.html Week ending 16/01/2016 total times a tier 8-10 ship brought to battle 443152 Shimikazi brought 11704 times Tier 8-10 ships brought to battle Shimikazi has made up 2.66% of them Remove tier 8 from equation (so only tier 9 and 10) they jump to 10.49% of ships brought to game 10% of 24 is an average of 2.5 across both teams Ok OK I am a state whor so you wont often see 3 in a team unless they them selfs are in a division.

wargaming own the game and the intellectual rights. they can setup the match making in any way they like. You have no legal recourse old chap as wargaming are not forcing you to play

was hoping he would respond to this as I am a little confused of what my narrow-minded opinion is!!
