Just hop on to our TS to have a chat with me about whether 5D WoWS is the right division for you. The first thing you'll see when you arrive on our TS is how many games make up the 5D gaming community. The next thing you'll see is how organized we are. On the EU server we have our own platoon and battle channels. Don't be surprised though if you suddenly find there are American voices in the channel. The NA channels are right next to ours, and so they pop in and out to hear our European accents and tell jokes. On the NA server 5D is one of the largest clans. But we don't want to be that big. We're looking for players to help make up 7 player teams so that we can compete on a daily basis. And when that team is full we'll just start another. Hop on our TS: 63.210.145.160:9102 IrishWarrior Commander - 5D WoWS (EU)

We are part of the the 5D gaming community. Our WoWS NA server clan has around 50 members. We are now starting on the creation of an EU server clan. We are interested in recruiting players from all over Europe, the only rule being that we all speak reasonable English. 5D WoWS EU is a social clan. This means that we place a priority on having fun over winning battles.If you would like to have a chat about your expectations and ours just pop on to our TS 63.210.145.160:9102 or visit our web site www.5DClan.comand ask for IrishWarrior. I look forward to meeting you. irishwarrior2

Hi. When you hover over the consumable options it says that you can pay either in credits or gold. My question is how do you change the setting, which seems to be defaulted on buying with gold? Thanks.

I've already got the Minekaze in my marina, but every time I see a Nicholas in play I wonder whether it has any advantages over the Minekaze. Obviously torp firing distance is not one of them. I've had a look at the ship, as best I can without actually buying it, to see what upgrades are available, turn circle etc. but I'm hoping that dedicated Nicholas lovers or players who have both and enjoy them equally will enlighten me. Thanks in advance

Is Jingles a WG Bot? Is the Yamato greater or smaller than his inflated ego? Is everyone an idiot unless they play to his high standard? If you don't like him don't watch him I hear you say. That's how it will be, but the man or Bot is now regularly quoted as being an 'authority' on issues ranging from the sea worthiness of the Hashidate to whether the Yamato's guns are better than some other ship's. I can get more valued, independent information on this Forum that I can from Jingles in a month of Sundays. Positive comments on Jingles welcome (Jingles excluded) Negative comments too, but keep them clean

At least be intelligent and say something positive about Jingles rather go down the well worn route of stat bashing the OP. There should be a ship named HMS Neanderthal.

I'd be grateful if someone could enlighten me on the exact meaning of acquisition range within the WOWS context. I had thought that it meant increasing the firing range, but I realise now that this may not be the case. I've paid 1,000,000 credit for an increase of 20%, but an increase in what? Appreciate your patience. I've posted several 'How to' post on this forum and the response has always been very good.

Thanks for your reply. So am I right in now thinking that it serves very little purpose let alone advantage?

Didn't WG recently send a questionnaire out to WOWS players? I assume that it was the perfect opportunity to provide WG with an honest opinion. I would love to have seen the results There's things wrong with this game, but since was anything perfect? I find WOWS stimulating and enjoyable. If I had one thought that might go the core of the problem - it's that WG utilses so much of its resources to the Cash Cow of WG - WOT - that there's not much left for WOWS and WOWP. We are, I'm sad to say, the poor cousins. It comes down to profit and loss, and nothing is going to change WG's stance towards us unless the total number of players falls below break even, a point known only to WG management; at which point they will either kill the game (too embarrassing) or leave us to wither on the vine (as at present). I would encourage players to stay with WOWS and see what other ships come out in October. If that's piss poor then hasta la vista (Spanish speakers please correct)

Does anyone know what Captain is in Japanese? And It's not cappuccino because I know that's Italian for Captain. The reason for my question is because I can't get my head around the Japanese ranks and their Allied equivalents. Cheers

I'm looking for advice on which upgrades to research. I know many players think that the Mutsuki is a rubbish DD, but I've got to play and find out for myself. I've researched the torps already, as the greater distance met with my game play. What I have trouble with is the C hull and the associate Battery option. I can't image having a high tier DD with only two gun mounts, but the increase in ROF to 12.1 from a measly 5.6 is very attractive. At 2000 hp for HE and AP the DPM with 4 mounts is 45,200, and with 2 mounts at 12.1 = 48,400. So not a lot in it. I'm assuming (please correct me if I'm wrong) that 4 mounts will spread the fire better then just 2. Also the possibility that a gun is damaged it would leave me just 1 working gun. I really would appreciate your comments. Thank you.

Fellow Captains, many ships have a 2-3 km difference between the firing range and the spotting range. I was wondering in which sort of situations would you not fire immediately you sailed into the firing range? This question does not include DD's for obvious reasons. Thanks

WG must have a bucket full of irony to produce its latest video - GRAPHICS. The video clearly attributes the low FPS many of users are experiencing to the quality of our grahics cards and CPU's. I've recently purchased a top of the range gaming PC and was looking forward to enjoying the high graphics available (claimed to be available) on WOWS. This evening I managed to get 6 FPS. That meant a juddering image of the my ship sailing the WG seas. Then I remembered WG's video and its suggestion to have a decent level of play. So I reduced my setting from high to medium. Result: 10 FPS, not enough to stop the start/stop image of my ship. Then I reduced the settings to low. Now here I managed to get 20 FPS. The ship had no detail, the islands no trees and, in my opinion, the experience reminded me of low end games from the 1980's. To those who might argue that my PC or internet provider is at fault I say this: how is it that I can play WOT and WOWP at very high settings and have no problems. If WG goes ahead with a public launch of WOWS without first sorting out the low FPS problem, they risk a loss of reputation. WG's response has been to create a video and blame users' PC's for the problem. Shame on you WG.

I worked out what a cold start is. Where we we be without the Net? I then upped my settings from low to high and got between 15-20 FPS, which is a great deal better than I have been having. I've spoken to the tech guy at the shop I bought the PC from and he asked the same question that I did, how can you run two games out of 3 on maxed graphics but not the third. He also said that he configured my PC to run exclusively on NVidea which Intel graphics can't interfere with unless I start fiddling with my PC. Strange, but thanks for your suggestions and comments.

I appreciate everyone's comments. I'm running this on a desk top PC not a lap top. I can't work out why the graphics can run maxed out on WOT and WOWP but not WOWS. Is that normal? Erm, what's a cold start please?

I would only be too pleased if someone could draw my attention to a weakness in my PC set up.

Noob here learning to play destroyers. How do you change the torp spread after pressing 3? Thanks in advance.

Dear WG, Firstly I want to say how much I enjoy playing WOWS. I understand this is the Open Beta phase, which is why I want to communicate to you two things I like about WOWS in its present form and my sincere hope that you will keep these when you go public: 1. I really like the options to train in the Training Room and to play in the co-operative mode. Please keep them. 2. The rumour mill is working overtime, and one of the rumours that concerns me most, if there's any truth to it that is, is the future blocking of all mods. I use Aslains Mod Pack and derive no tactical advantage from having it. In fact, just as in WOT, I believe the use of legal mods adds value to the WOWS experience. The mod adds colour to an otherwise bland, vanilla appearance. Have you seen the skin on the Kuma and Omaha? Well that's my €10 worth. Not sure if anyone at WG will actually read it.

Dear WG, why is the FPS and Ping so screwed up when I play WOWS in the evening? Has it got something to do with the increased number of players in the evening than during the day and you've possibly dedicated little server space to cope? It really needs to be addressed before you go public with WOWS. I've read quite a few posts about this issue but I've seen nothing in response from WG or its minions. This strikes me as odd.

I'm interested to learn whether the majority of players either ignore using the automatic map system to move their ships around, or find it a useful resource which enables them to focus on firing their guns and, as far as I am concerned, avoiding unhealthy collisions with islands? I suppose in close-quarter combat it's handy to steer the ship yourself, but so often I find myself pressing either E or Q as an expedient solution to navigating whilst fighting. However, I end up going in a circle and having to face the very enemy I just tried to avoid.

Have any of you fine captains ever mistakenly touched the MMB while, say, firing torps and you find yourself stuck in the mode which gives you a first person view of where your torps end up? Meanwhile, you've crashed your ship and everyone and his parrot is firing at you. How do you get out of that mode? I've tried RMB but no success.

Are you able to rate it against it's T5 Jap counterpart - Minekaze? What in your opinion can the Nicholas do better than the Minekaze? Hope you get time to reply, in fact everyone is invited to give their opinion. Cheers

Many thanks. No more looking like a complete noob
