    This was my finest hour.

    Wouldn't it be nice if people let others enjoy their efforts instead of knocking them......

    Annoying heavy damage sound

    I agree totally. Like you my ears suffer and in all honesty, I do think we know without excess effects that we have suffered a severe hit!

    Public test

    Yes, I realise but hopefully from tomorrow earnings will rise to allow new players to experience what the patch has to offer (maps playable at tiers 9 and 10 for instance), It would be mad of them to not allow speedy XP and credit earnings as why have a test where you cannot play on those high tier maps? Have a go, it is fun! And, who cares about their stats!

    Public test

    For those eager to get their hands on a Kutuzov, getting (10) kills in any tier in both PvE and PvP count. The cherry on the top you will also receive 20,000 doubloons.

    WG sort this DD bull out asap please

    Another unhappy BB captain? You should well know (being a Beta tester) this is a known characteristic of some DD's, that are able to fire from outside their spotting distance. Think about it, a ship with a really low profile at sea at that distance, I doubt you could see it if the sea was choppy etc. Accept and move on...

    A player does 4 team kills in one Battle

    This, we raise the most serious ones we see (what is it really like out there?) and seemingly nothing done.....

    Public test

    The server is up early but with regular XP/credits. As tomorrow is the 'official' start to the PT maybe accelerated earning will be put into place? Sounds are fantastic, have a sub (woofer!) under my desk and when the guns go off there are ripples in my cup of coffee!
  8. Ah, so we are ships with wings?

    I'm confused ...

    Why are you still posting here? (You do not play the game after all so are not qualified to make that statement). You can either edit scripts_config.xml or use Aslains Mod to have a multi-server client. Please note, when the EU server updates (apart from restoring the modified script_config file) you will only be able to play on other servers ONLY if they have received their update as well. Hope that helps.

    The Cost of Success

    It has been a subject raised intermittently since the beginning and accepted, as a ship would indeed, need a degree of 'loving care' after battle successful or not. Took my NC out yesterday for instance, and although a loss and no damage, the dock crew decided they needed to give the old ship a lick of paint, damned expensive paint I say at over 20k! Lucky I earned a few bob in that battle to pay for those pirates!

    Stuck at Rank 10

    Still early days for me but am utterly frustrated with the 'toss the coin' chance of winning or losing. One battle from rank 10 then for some reason I attracted the Romans. One would go a'Roman in one direction, another a'Roman in another...... guaranteed losses and don't get me talking about AFK'ers hoping the rest of the team will gain a star for them. 2 cap points does not work as well either, why not back to 3 where the middle one is where you are all fighting over? Got to go and find that coin again, this time I am calling heads......
  12. Excuse me if this has already been mentioned previously, Nosing around all the sites I stopped off at the Premium Shop and saw the Warspite on offer again, but in a bundle. Just thought best to give you all a heads up.

    best game ever

    I think it is the enemies DD that frightened them......

    How can I report this user?

    It is a spam account created to post this rubbish. Report it to support but even though the account will get deleted they will continue to create new accounts to spam with.

    supertest patchnotes and new maps

    Quick, get the grinding in now while you can! In all honesty Kiev in the right hands is a monster (as you are good it will be in yours). As it is only a HP nref, I do not think you need to worry too much, it is the weakness of the turrets (as you must know in the Ognivoi) that is its Achilles heel.
  16. Yes but only partially. As for your point, I agree that it should not be automatic but manually so we have our own 'depot' in port to either sell or keep modules that suit us.

    What will u do with [edited] mix tier division

    You have a valid point, WG want friends to play together if they want, fine. But, how many are being upset with these unbalanced divisions in the game? More are being upset than those that are creating these stilted divisions, so more money is likely to be lost from players not happy with this. Divisions should only be based on a +1/-1 rule, not unlimited as it is.
  18. Sorry to quote you Grey but you answered pretty as much as I would (bought the same ships) have. I did not do the poll as it leans too much about bundles on their own. If there was a question saying would you feel better having a vanilla option as well as a bundle I would have participated. Choice is what we need.
  19. Flawed logic. You will be recompensed for the modules taken off sold ships, you then have the cash. If indeed you want to re-purchase a particular ship, you only have to purchase those modules with the cash you received initially. I can assure you more players will be happier with this than you (who appears to only ever see negativity in everything). It is a step forwards.
  20. Believe me, I support wholeheartedly the motion to have a choice, I have stated that from day one. I too have a load of gold and free XP over in WoWp and I too am awaiting unification....

    Why is there NOT a report option for teamkillers?

    Please quote the sources for the above statements as they will indeed be handy to quote again for similar threads.
  22. Sorry too, but as you know some posts are not of the sarcasm you can interpret as humorous. Apology accepted.
  23. Firstly a fact. In the thread I started, I notified the forum that the Warspite was up for sale in a bundle. Period. Apparently I am now 'known' for creating that one thread? FYI, Vuk merged the other threads into mine, that is about as far as it goes. You need to get that chip off your shoulder as you are now walking with a limp. As for buying items, I choose what I feel suits me best at the time, bundles or vanilla.

    How do I clemson

    Langley outrun a Clemson? Seriously though, USN alongside the RUS DD's are gunboats primarily and are great for suppressing enemy DD's. Good rate of fire means you can also be a royal pain spamming HE at CA's and BB's (preferably enemy ships!).
