All maps should have a chance to have a storm. Some maps could have a bigger % of getting bad weather, so for example a North Atlantic themed map could have a bigger chance than let's say a Mediterranean one. But it should definitely not be like North is now, where there's a storm (I don't like the Cyclone name) on almost every game.

That could work at tier 4, but at tier 6 (where Bayern is expected) adding a few 20mm guns wont help you at all. You need dual-purpose mid-calibre guns to face tier 6-8 carriers, and that requires a reconstruction.

Just played two games with it. Both were defeats and got sunk, but damage was 70k (tier 3 battle) and 50k (tier 4 battle) with 1 kill each. Guns are excellent (felt to me exactly the same as Yubari's). Only got 1 hit with torpedoes, but didn't do much damage to a Kawachi. Armour is almost non-existant, and movility is lacking, so the best you can do is try to stay out of range, because once you're in the middle of it, there's no way you can get out.

I got the XP missions done by getting a free day of premium in a weekly mission and having a great result during that time. Still I think it's not fair, and not good for the game. For example, I have supported this game by buying a number of premium ships, starting with Yubari in the Closed Beta times (I didn't need to, I had already got into the CBT, did it just to support the game), instead of buying premium time. Why do I have to be less that someone who buys premium time? If premium users can get their bonuses count towards the mission, why can't the bonus of my premium ships count for it? Are there different levels of players depending on what are they buying (Premium time, Premium Ships, Doubloons, play for free)? To avoid this kind of discriminations, it would be much better to keep this kind of missions strictly to Base XP. An affordable one for the first week (like 1500) and progressively harder (1750, 2000, 2500). But it should be the same for everybody.

That's my impression as well. I think that all battles I've had in North have included what WG calls "a cyclone".

Does anybody know if WG plans to give German WW1 battleships hypothetical post-war reconstructions? A 1918 Derfflinger would have troubles dealing with planes, with just a few 88 AA guns. Bearable in tier4, but I cant imagine it in tier5 without a thorough rebuild.

I have two accounts. In my main one, in which I've basically played cruisers, the % of detonations I've had is 0.63% of games played (15/2352). In the other one, used almost exclusively with BBs, is 0.24% (3/1233). Arguably, the most detonations will probably be in Destroyers, which I rarely play. But I don't think detonations are a problem in this game. And they're fun when you're on the other side of the gun barrel

Bringing the thread back to topic, it doesn't seem that Molotov has set the world on fire exactly. In like 10-15 games I've played this afternoon I've found only 1 in an enemy team.

Fixed

I think they wanted to give Furutaka its original 1920s look to make it visually different to Aoba. Now that Furutaka has been proved too underpowered when compared to the other tier 5 cruisers, they will probably add its last historical configuration.

Wow, that's really a strange way to set up the missions. But I'm happy because the battle that got me the 2500XP mission of the first week will get my missions fulfilled until 4000XP (2724*1.5 premium bonus=4086).

Queen Elizabeth class BBs had similar modifications to turrets in their last reconstruction (Warspite, Queen Elizabeth and Valiant). They had 30º of elevation during WW2 (20º originally).

Week 2 Missions Did you think 2500XP was hard? Now twice as hard EDIT: For some reason, they appear to me as if I had already done them

That's good news for me. I finished the grind a couple of weeks ago and didn't buy it thinking Ibuki would be more of the same. Now I will probably go ahead... when I finish the rest of grinds I have now.

You're wasting too much time in the forums when you could be trying

Capping bases is the key (resetting caps may help too) and not necessarily in a DD. I did it this way with an Aoba.

I understand that in that weekend (10th-12th of June or 11th-13th of June) we will get extra XP in every battle for our captains and two missions, which will depend on the total number of diamonds collected. The more diamonds, the better rewards for those missions and better captain XP coefficient. I suspect that the 12mill goal will even increase those rewards. Would be nice if they added the dates to the descriptions in the missions tab: Week 1 (6th-11th May) missions Thanks.

Does anybody know when do the weekly missions reset? and will they be the same ones or different?

Which is basically what they have done in WoT for a long time, and it has worked quite well. Why are they deviating from this politics is a mystery to me, although one can always gue$$.

The 3 days were awarded as soon as you first logged in after the patch.

Exactly the same range as NY...

There must be some keys that conveniently pressed must change the keyboard, because my game is constantly in US mode, even if I set it to my country again and again. @Crusherheads: is there a way to eliminate that keyboard combination?

This is what happens when you set up an event that demands players playing games like mad.

My greatest achievement of the day... waiting patiently to get a 24h premium day through the Victory mission (doing 2M damage) so I can have a chance at the 20 diamonds of the 2500 baseXP mission, and then have a fantastic game and break the score with 2700+ base XP, so there was no need for the premium time .
