Dumb question, is desync in any way related to the ongoing problems with stuttering and freezing?

Theoretically, if it isn't at WG's end, it would have to be either at the players end, such as their PC/DNS or somewhere in between. It is somewhat unlikely that so many players in different locations would suddenly be having the same kind of issues if they weren't somehow interconnected. IMO that means it is either the WG servers, coding, or possibly some kind of general disturbance of the web in various nodes along the paths from WG servers to individual players.

Are you folks all talking about the same ship?

Yes, but sometimes I'm a little envious of how some silver ships let you customize your ship by selecting different modules, like guns or torps typically. Very few premium ships let you do this. For most modules, of course, the top choice is the obvious one.

The Battle of Salty Gurka? Did we win or lose it?

Unfinished.

For me, premium ships are economically better plus they have a permanent camo (not always quite the type I would prefer but.. whales can't be choosers...). They also allow me the flexibility of more easily switching captains (possibly different with different skills) making them also more versatile than silver ships.

OMG the missing napkin ship! There's long been rumours of one napkin gone mysteriously missing. It allegedly contains the blueprints for a ship with underwater part of the ship mirroring the surface part exactly. When sunk, the ship keels over and will resume service as 'unsinkable'. To the outside observer it is as if nothing had happened....

Fawlty Towers starts to look quite inviting....

Assuming Fawlty Towers has no stars, how many stars would you credit WeeGee?

It's WG's equivalent to 'Everything to your satisfaction?'....

I know I know! 'Token Summer Sale'

Turning is death on any map. In this sense, it is always open water if the enemy has a clear line of fire. Yes, it should. Abysmal... ... unlike certain maps which seem to pop up more regularly, the Ocean is very very rare.

Apparently it is a lottery that is called 'sale'. Do they need a permit to run a lottery?

I think there's more than one body who'd take a pretty stern view of 'gambling'...

I dug up something along those lines: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-46603475 and... Quoted from: https://marketinglaw.osborneclarke.com/advertising-regulation/no-more-28-day-rule-pricing-and-promotions-under-the-spotlight/

I think there is an actual legal definition of what can be a 'sale' and what can't. Hmm.. this seems to be complicated by the fact than in English any transaction is a 'sale'....

The Ocean is absolutely the best balanced map out there. If some ships are at a disadvantage it's down to shoddy balancing like I said before. I know this isn't a simulation, but overall the smartest thing would have been to balance all ships so that they would be operationally effective under typical conditions. By typical conditions most people would understand open water, not an archipelago as the ships you'd expect to be operating in such waters would be of an altogether different type such as coastal vessels. As such, there is one map I like, and a whole bunch maps are either like a hell of a lot less, or not at all. By strangest coincidence, the one map I like is the one you don't. Which one of us getting a fairer treatment from WG?

It's WeeGee who chose to call it 'Summer Sale'. Most people just seem to think that implies something else than what WeeGee has given us.

Could someone please tell me where I can find WG approved replies?

Did you just define humanity?

What about Commando?
