    GOOD NEWS but is this game breaking ?

    More than 2 months since last SC. Not worried.
  2. Absolutely. Every now and then they release a Premium turd to make it look like it's not that way, but it is. Since the end of Closed Beta.

    Referal program

    It used to be for new players OR accounts unused for at least 3 months. I used it to get Texas in my second account when it was implemented. No idea if they have changed the requirements.
  4. With the new patch the sound files have been packaged, and the old method of renaming the Arpeggio folder doesn't work anymore. Tried deleting the corresponding .pkg file, but game doesn't even start and shows an error. Does anyone know a way to make ARP ships use the normal English voices?

    Torpedo hit ratio: How low can you go?

    According to WG stats, mine is 7%. I usually spread torps a lot to secure 1-2 hits rather than a tight pattern for lower chance of a devastating strike. Of course, more often than not I get 0 hits .

    The Marblehead (..for REAL SAILORS only!)

    There was a time when Omahas (all 3 of them) were funny. Not anymore. Sold Omaha and stopped playing Murmansk. Marblehead is even worse.

    Stealth firing removal: also for Premiums!

    Stop firing and get out of a difficult situation? You know, as it was used in real life...

    Scripts - Config Problem

    And it works. Just did it in my own install after yesterday patch. EDIT: I just noticed that forum format changes the addresses of the servers (the blue links in quotation marks). Be sure to copy the links and change it in the text.
  9. It doesn't work anymore. Sound files have been packaged now. No, that way is valid for "normal" ships, but not ARP. They still keep the Japanese teen voices.
  10. This is sistership Eugenio di Savoia. You can clearly see the triple torpedo launcher. Never trust the wikipedia 100%

    when is Gremyashchy coming out?

    And never forget that Gremy is at tier 5. Anshan and Gnevny (from tomorrow on) are tier 6.

    French cruiser next it seems

    Algerie at tier 7 confirms what I've been thinking since the I played with Adm Hipper... What the hell is it doing at tier 8?
  13. I haven't used Fubuki and Hatsuharu I got after the IJN DDs split. I will probably sell Fubuki, and some day I will take Hatsuharu to reach Akizuki. But IJN DDs are not much fun anymore for me.

    Need advise

    Without a replay it's impossible to know. Maybe you didn't notice and were detected for a second and the BB was rightly in that moment aiming there...

    The Battle of the Java Sea

    It took me 12 games (3 last night and 9 more this morning) in a Molotov to get the damn 7 citadel hits mission just to find out that the reward is a [edited]Damage Control System modification...which I have no use for. Whoever that designs these missions has to go. Far, very far, and never ever come back.
  16. It's happened to me a few times in my 6000 battles. Seems to be completely random, and going to desktop, killing the process from the task manager and restarting the game (never had the need to reset the whole system) usually works. Don't know why it doesn't for you.
  17. You have 3 launchers. Learn to shoot your torpedoes in a tighter pattern. Alternatively, get closer.

    The Battle of the Java Sea

    Another shitty mission (75 planes? Ramming damage? Krakens?) by the guy who should have been fired long ago...
  19. Since I have no interest at all in Missouri, I haven't changed my habits with Free XP. I use it in the normal ships every time I think it's necessary (mainly to avoid 1st hulls). Now, if another ship of my interest becomes available in the future, I don't think I'll waste a single doubloon converting XP. To be interesting to me it will have to be in a lower tier, so it's supposed to be cheaper. I'll simply try to grind the free XP.

    The MM - A pleasant surprise

    I already noticed that. But a battle with 5 BBs per side is not a good MM for me. 4 capital ships (BBs+CVs) and then the rest of classes as available in queue would be my ideal MM.

    Mutsu Price

    That happened with Warspite back in the day and it was at a higher price. I think the bad reviews Dunkerque had from Community Contributors may have had something to do with the lower price.

    The MM - A pleasant surprise

    5 battleships per side? That's not a good MM.

    BELFAST RANKED

    I play a Mahan sometimes in ranked battles this season, and having a Belfast in the enemy team is a premonition of me having a poor game. I can´t contest caps at the beginning, because as soon as I get spotted by my enemy counterpart and I see enemy ships in the back, I try to turn, smoke and run... but there's no way I can make it without losing a massive chunk of my health points, as Belfast radar keeps me spotted for the reds. From then on I'm basically limited to long range HE spamming, because an encounter with any enemy DD means death. I guess this experience can be extrapolated to any other DD in ranked battles. Belfast is an absolute disaster for this game.
