We are saying you should've been on F4 and both teams would've gotten their caps.... That is what you do with ppl that are given helpful advise but ignore it, only to insist on their opinion.

Yes. USS Black is a truly OP ship. (and I will abuse the crap out of it once i get my dirty hands on it after i rank out next season )

Because i actualy played only Lo Yang this season i can assure you that ship is no face roll win ship. I have met some rare excellent players this season in several different DDs that weren't Lo Yangs that made me really work for my win. I guess those CCs and streamers did it for the same reason i did. The Lo Yang is the perfect noobtrap. There were a game this season where i obliterated two DDs alone (to add insult to injury i think it was actualy a cap on trident from south - you know, the cap you didn't go for) because they simply didn't know what a lo Yang is. they just panicked and tried to hide in smoke while i could take my sweet time punching holes in them while getting no damage in return. If you are up against a good DD player then your Hydro is worth crap (and even if you spot him with HAS you still rely on your team to not trade all of your hp for one dd). Trust me. Sorry but no. really. Just looking at the minimap should've shown you that this is BS. Try to draw a line between your ships and the b cap and see what he means. Also you just don't push a cap alone if you should KNOW that chappy is gonna be behind center island.

That would actualy be a good way to finaly use all my spotter planes in yammy why would you do that? It is rather dumb to neglect something just out of principle...... You could've still used it as effective weapon in coop and campaigns if you don't like to use it on other players...

Geez op you sure are a whiney butthurt person on this one...... you went alone to b cap with the obvious radar in play and the possibilty of the Lo Yang being there to Hydro in open water..... What did you expect to happen? What you SHOULD have done is go to a as 1) Lo yang would've been in a major disadvantage there as you have way more support and the center islands cuts of the line of fire from his support. 2) you cruisr has Hydro too.... If you hate Lo Yang so much just play any radar cruiser or even better CV and you are save from them and you even can be a major pain in the a..... for him. If you still insist in playing benson look at it like this: Lo yang is a onetrick pony. All he has is his HAS + Smoke combo. Lo yang can't do much against competent BBs as the Torpedos are laughable because either abysmal spotting distance or range. Lo Yang can't do much against CV either unlike Benson C hull with DefAA.... (you shouldn't do that in ranked though as CV is too rare). Lo yang relies heavily on either good teammates that actualy shoot the targets you spot or on stupid enemy DDs that would rush your smoke. Yes i did rank out in Lo Yang this season. No i didn't buy it because of that, i had it long before. yes I actualy considered either Kidd or Harekaze/aki over Lo yang until i desided on Lo yangs HAS because i expected most DDs I meet to be dumb and i was right on the money. If you play as a team and don't rush smoke or obvoius hidingplaces of lo yangs hydro near cap then you are golden and lo yang can't to anything about you other than engaging in an unfavourable DPM match. Lo Yang only seems so strong in ranked because it is only Toptier.... but now think of if you either would pick Lo yang or Benson in a Tier X random MM....

They removed it because it made no sense. You could actualy collect more credits by always getting the "more credits" container twice a day than from the SC with credits you will eventualy get. They even explained that this suggestion from the community were the reason they did it Also have fun with these small Speedboats and Battle Boats in WT. No they aren't competing for the same market and won't steal away much of each playerbase save than maybe some naive few. Just play more ranked. They are giving out all those useful modules reguarly on the higher ranks. Well to be fair back in the day when I finaly got the Perth after I realized it is THE ship i need (favourite ship in the game now by a large margin), I would've prefered smoke + spotter over speedboost and radar if I didn't have a complete set out of the first ranked season after they introduced these special upgrades. Back in the day I didn't own any ship eligable for radar and I would have wanted to play my Perth to all it's strenght. Fair enough these spotterplanes can be shot down but that is why you have two of them and in Perth the gameplay usualy means being so close to the cap to only meet DDs instead of heavy on AA cruisers (because it is too deadly for them there) But as I already got it covered by then I agree the Speedboost, Hydro and Radar are a lot more useful on average.

Jeah Grand Naval Battles! I member! Good times. Everyone was collecting those points like mad wondering what would happen if we reach that ominous "sekrit topprize" only to find out WG never planed for us to come this far...

What is pay to win for you? No Premiumship will ever guarantee you a win like in the indie- and mobilegames this term originated from. If you widen the term in giving ingame advantages over non paying players that can lead to a win, then actualy the game actualy was p2w 18 months ago by that definition. The very concept Premiumtime fits this frame, as it will give paying players extra credits and xp which the nonpaying players only can dream of. Credits and xp which they buy all premiumconsumables possible in every game with (somethin free players can't afford) and enough freexp to never play weaker stockships.... But I know what you mean. The game was different back then. I can still renember cowering in fear of the Tier X Essex near as much AAA as possible, because when that thing gets all his bombs on you, you are dead no matter which ship you are in. Well they did add Training room recently sooo.... they didn't sell the Op Premiums (only Kami and Nikolai are really the ones you can still call "op" out of all those ships in the boxes), they sold Loot-Boxes. Big Difference! You could've spent like 10€ and get both or you could've spent several thousands of € and never get any ship. It's all RNG so saying they sold OP Ships doesn't really hold. On Topic: From back in the day when I still played WoT PC frequently I can clearly renember spotting the really bad noobs instantly (like going in the swamp in Lakeville with most of the Heavys) and they were frequent enough to get at least one in every game that plays so bad that it makes your headhurt. So no I would even say with including all those special BBs we get here in WoWS, that WoT is worse when it comes to Noobs. And no just like in WoWS you can't carry with midtier Lighttanks against Surviving super Heavys, or with Arty against Medium Tanks, or with Tanks like Borsig against 2 or 3 Enemys in the cap without sniping lanes into the cap..... In WoT when the Light suck and camps and doesn't spot against multiple Hightier TDs while the enemyscout does a good job at spotting and you are getting hammered by artilleryfire and heavy TD Tankshells you are screwed (in your Heavy) because you will die before you reach the enemy to spot them. Or when your team descides it is a good idea to send all Heavys and/or most of the Tanks in the swamp in lakeville while the enemy mediums and fast Heavys flank through the village. In all these cases you are 100% screwed too.

Hrm... They usualy do push out a Premiumship fitting for an imminent Techtreeline... Normaly they want to sell those though so freexp is not that likely. Yet we are going to get a BB line and every Freexp ship until now were BBs and your commander argument holds water for Yamamoto and Seagal so maybe you are actualy on to something...

I like it and it was already discussed while playing Clan Battles internal of 5crubs why there isn't something like this. (some of our members where missing credits to buy the elgable Tier X ships + modules) Sadly it will never happen as WG naivly beliefs there are enough clan members that still would exchange dubloons for credits, which would be a thing of the history then. Oh yes and it is open for abuse ofc. like Salentine said.

Well the 2. option will be gimped soon with Update 0.7.1 when they rip most of the Lowtier Premiumships out of the techtree..... https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/updates/dasha-in-training-070/ The only Tier VII I see here that will be available in the tree (for now) are Sims, Hood, Blyska and Lenin....

Oooh I bet some DD main captains in the Scrub clans (meaning me included) wouldn't mind if you (could) share those. The difference is in WoT you can actualy aim for it as the guns are acurate enough (or more like the range is shorter) and it is based on HP of an internal module (much like the Gunturrets in WoWS actualy have hp). Also that internal module has a fix hitbox in the Tank in WoT. (Also if you get hit in WoT without willingly taking the risk of where the enemy might hit you, then you already made a mistake) In WoWS however everytime you hit the general ship with HE (or not hit but just damage structures with splash damage like Bellegar already pointed out) you roll the dice if a detonation occurs (if Juliet Charlie isn't equipped). No there isn't logic (as soon as it comes to if you detonate or not - it can however alternate the chance) and HP of modules involved, the game rolls the dice. Pure RNG! On Topic: This is the 1xxxx Topic about that and my answer is still the same this mechanic needs to go, at least if you want to play competetive.

I hate the patches/emblems AND the horns, yet i can't silence one of them.... The patches get boring fast after you've seen them all and stay for too long so it becomes annoying. I am all for customization and individuality (maybe do the same idea but just on the ships or when you hover over the name?) but this feature as it is now would be a good riddance. Just like the shiphorns. Which i still hear. Even when disabling them in the options. ANNOYING

If you are 100% sure you are using the correct launcher with a correct set of email + password that are tied to an european account than this issue can't be solved here in the forums and is a case for the support. Write a supportticket and follow the instructions the guys give you and maybe they can fix the issue. You can create a ticket here: https://eu.wargaming.net/support/tickets/create You have to login for that obviously but you said you can login to the website so this should be a non issue.

Hrm Typo in the email? Or Password? What does it say when you try to login and fail? Is there some error message?

Can you login the normal WoWS website for EU? https://worldofwarships.eu/ If yes the most likely would be that you got the wrong launcher (game center since you're that new of a player) You can find the EU one here: https://worldofwarships.eu/en/content/game/ Maybe just deinstall and try again with the file from the link above?

Guys... just stop the legal action shenanigans... If you have enough money to sue WG for a gaming laptop and with low chance of winning, then you can easily afford to just buy the Laptop and won't notice a difference. Nothing good or rewarding will come out of this train of thought. EDIT. It's the only problem I have with democracy. But I better shut up now because I am not sure about the rules on this forum considering political discussion....

A very good example of "small mistake severe result". This will raise the salt level to 9000 considering the very let's say controversial requirements to enter the competition. I take it lightly and think it is funny though and don't mind, but this could be because i was able to participate (and already knew i didn't win because i checked preemptively).

Sadly nope.... Btw don't just assume i wouldn't grant a gaming laptop to a fellow Scrub!

I bet I have that message too and i certainly wouldn't mind a gaming laptop because i know a good friend that wants to play WoWS with me but can't for several months now because his PC broke and he is a student (so always broke).... This was actualy the reason why i bothered entering that contest. Jeah we know WG from all their sides by now.... (it is official now)

Everyone that got the same and still are wondering (because this thread is filled with sarcasm rather than actual information), this message refers to this competition: https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/common/the-grand-naval-tour/ As you can see only pingpong01 and Ramsauer73 (that nickname sounds very german - i think we got the cause here) are the actual winners. WG messing up again and sending that message to all instead of just those 2. So don't get your hopes up you (likely) haven't won anything....

Seems like I am eligable! (jay) Though I am very unlikely to get a recommendation due to my to low profile on the Forums. I guess one have to have a lot more presence especialy on the newcomerforum than i can handle with my free time to be noticed. (notice me senpai) Well we'll see. Good idea anyways so I will look forward to what it brings so the table.

you do realize i was talking about active (moving and shooting) bots not dummies with a targetcircle painted on it for shooting practise? Edit: They gimped the amount of possible CV in the trainingroom for the very same reason. (before you could play one ship against 5+ CVs to test the AA - just look up some Flamuvideos on prenerf Grozovoi for example)

They have taken it out because they released it officially and hence implemented it in the client that is easy for everyone to use. They have let us play around with live bots because there were so few people that actualy went through the effort to enable the "hidden" training room by editing the preferences file. Now that everyone could use it without any effort means a lot more are likely to use it and that would cause too much strain on the server. (thousands of botrooms with only one player but up to 11 active bots) That is why they pulled the plug.

I don't want to be the one to crush your hope of playing sooner rather than later, but apparently you are using the High quality HD client so you should expect a couple more GB after the current download....
