Cossack isn't a CV, so I'm wondering what is the connection between the first screenshot and others. As for the CV's, I think it's simply down to the damage, not the CV moving or not. ,

Do you have several coupons for the Premium shop?

If I may say so, I think you carried the analogy too hard.

Very nicely trimmed beard too. I think Cap approves as well.

The pinned thread you mean? Yes, I guess you can see your own post, and only WG sees all of them.

You mean it's leaking and some people are getting high on bilge water?

What is WG trying to tell us, don't go anywhere near the caps for the first couple of minutes of the game, better stay near the the map border in the rear?....

I dunno... seems like this is a very clever solution to the problem of crap servers, game bugs, connection issues and D/C's while in battle.

I suppose we must believe that the Russian CV's are just historically accurate, then. What suprises me that you are saying the coop CV's are even worse. What I said earlier about COOP doesn't seem to apply then, then again, I haven't played much high tier COOP lately.

Thanks. I often joke about getting two minute battles... I've realised that there is still much for me to learn in this game. I've yet to experience something we see in OP's replay.

Yeah but if we are talking about the inactivity penalty this is still a false positive. If WG intends to make this into something else, like a minimum damage requirement, then they better rename it and be honest about it.

@SeaWolf7 That's true, COOP does not teach you how to play PvP in this game. It's good for other purposes but not for learning the PvP aspects of the game. I don't actually know why, but it seems as if everything there works differently from the PvP modes. The worst aspect of COOP in this regard is how much more forgiving it is when it comes to mistakes.

Cheers!

What? Well that actually is a good comparison, though I think mine is too. Let's see now, the customer is eating at the same terrible cafeteria at work because he has no better convenient option even though he dislikes the cafeteria then one day the food just gets so bad he needs an ambulance and a paramedic who tells everyone the customer is still trying to eat against his and everyone's better judgement. Of course this would happen some place where there are no health inspectors. Regardless, one day the customer will come to his senses and start using a lunch box or go for a Chinese takeaway instead. My takeway from this discussion is WG has no long term plans they are just raking in the money at this point, and the game's long term viability is anybody's guess. I used to play around a dozen battles on a good day in this game. Well... my battles tended to be a bit on the short side but let's not get into that.... Now, on a good day I play maybe a couple. Some days not at all. Now, if that's enough and all it takes for people to say that 'I am still playing' then all is fine. There's a cartoon about that, I believe. Not my playing, but about 'all is fine'.

From the way OP phrased it in his post I think we assume the DD was gone. True, it's not in the topic heading or the poll itself.

That's like a doctor standing by a patient's deathbed and telling everyone that the patient is still breathing.

Never seen Killer Whale like this, thank you. I just realised we don't really get to see and admire much of the brilliant work WG art deparment does to create these maps.

No, it wouldn't be tinder, it would be the other one...

Depends, a lot, I'd say. If the game had that 'I helped!' award I keep asking, then definitely worth it. Pointswise it makes sense, trading a DD for a BB along with the bonus of getting the spotting information. If the DD player is below average, and the BB player is better than average, makes some sense as some have pointed out. Tactically speaking, doesn't make sense of course, because the DD stealth is an asset all around, and traditionally the DD's have had the potentially to play a decisive role at the end stage of the battle where the DD's will always win against BB's other things being equal.

Well that's what it looked like, yes. Was it a lucky hit, was the CV player an expert or is that Soviet CV some kind of an OP monster?

@Wild_Butter Thanks for the replay, I recommend everyone watching the full.. one.. minute.. of your battle. I also definitely think this is a false positive, if you haven't posted it in the false positives thread do so, with the replay, and I think WG staff needs to have a look at it. I frankly don't know what exactly happened, you just got erased in a fraction of a second. Happened too fast for me to figure out, we'll have to summon the higher powers, I think. @El2aZeR your thoughts on what happened would be highly welcome, please. What I did notice is you were setting your engine telegraph to Full speed ahead before the battle started so you were definitely ready and active. I don't see anything you did wrong, except maybe you should try the trick of turning into the incoming planes to make it harder for the CV to hit you. That kind of runs against the rational of using AA + consumable and/or priority sector, but because we also kind of know the AA is more like a cosmetic show, a fireworks display to entertain the CV attacking you so I think it's better to just turn into the planes.

Does anyone have any information about this survey posted on YT? https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6tL95G3ZD_JLUrn52JM_7w/community?lb=Ugkx6FFetQQ8yfnnoCKJH4cr4gr76QPuE2P3

I half expected you were sneakily trying to Rick roll us.. but this...

Wow that is fast... scarily fast. In that case it's entirely possible for OP to have been hit at around 1 minute into the game.... This must depend on random things like spawn locations and where the CV decides to send those planes first. Entirely unfair to get an 'inactivity' penalty under those conditions.
