    60%+ solo players, help me

    I was a bit surprised by this comment, given that the entire purpose of the topic was the OP asking help regarding solo play. So up to wowstats I went, once again, a lo and behold: @LemonadeWarrior is a reroll account, and besides a roll of bad luck for the last 20 games with 45%, his last 93 games still have 62% Which begs the question: what's the purpose of this thread? - Is it some "subtle" epeen pride? - Is it some "subtle" "teams are garbage" (which is true) rant? or, what it of course is, given the "maybe I'll better uninstall till WG sees the light (to remove CVs)", is it once again a "carriers are the source of all evil and all their players worship the devil and eat little babies" rant? ugh @Boris_MNE we have a subversive element here

    60%+ solo players, help me

    Either those players were smart enough to not overextend and are able to get out safely, or they weren't and are gonna die nevertheless. In both cases they don't need your help. Don't bother with idiots, they are gonna find ways to be useless and die anyway. I never do any of that "teamwork" you refer to (fighters, striking a target that is farther away than another, equivalent decent target, etc) except when I know those players I'd help by doing that are good (by name and/or by clantag) Also, I've decided to go back to using matchmaking monitor. Knowing from the beginning with which teammates not to bother seems like a vast advantage in CV games, where time is the biggest force working against you.

    the "carry harder!" thread

    More than double xp of the next dip$hit once again. (edit: that's not even exactly true, cause I guess he did decent for a tier 6 compared to the t8 bots) Standard battle, left flank collapses and red team pushes through. What does glorious team do? Well, try to find the enemy kaga of course with our zero AA, so at least he can have a decent game and to guarantee there is absolutely zero percent of me aiding them. But sure, let's keep blaming carriers. Here's my nostradamussing for today: this is exactly how ranked will go. Some nitwits will do something extremely braindead and give the red carrier free frags - and blame their own carrier for their stupidity - if he/she dares to say anything in return, it will only guarantee that the automatic chatmisbehaviour reports will activate. Won't withhold the forum & reddit community to blame it all on cvs too of course. 2019, year of the scapegoat.

    Excepting the fact that that all time high was straight in the middle of the carrier rework. But yea, there's something new in the game, so:

    yea and then you click on "all" instead of "3 months" and see absolutely nothing is going on https://steamcharts.com/app/552990#All nice try though
  6. That's true in a general way, but the mod allows more specific things. Like @El2aZeR said above, you can use it (mainly when CV) to see who you would target. I mainly used it to see who I could support, or, who would be reasonably likely to support me - i.e. ppl with let's say at least 54% or so. But once you have a few games where the best player on your team has 41% - even better if combined with the red team having let's say 5 unicums - it takes a special kind of masochism to continue looking those numbers in the face.

    Bomb reticle jumping when losing planes

    You're just too stubborn to accept the explanation given to you. Like what do you know about carriers? Typical wows player Dunning-Kruger in action right here.

    Bomb reticle jumping when losing planes

    Implying everything you don't get an answer to is working as intended? That's a dangerous route you're taking here.
  9. Yup, use them. - the angle indicator: easier/just a tad faster than looking angles at minimap - the hp of the teams, that @Tyrendian89 referred to - the reverse/forward thingy, although it seems to malfunction a lot, not sure - some minimap improvements - team aware I played a lot without them, cause getting annoyed by updating them every patch - but these days I have to cause we need team aware for CBs And until almost a year ago I also used matchmaking monitor, but for OBVIOUS reasons - cough @El2aZeR - I stopped using them. Also my physician refused to go higher than triple the recommended dose of prozac.

    the "carry harder!" thread

    CQE was against a red Bismarck. Doesn't matter in the end when people throw their ship away for zero reasons and top tier ships could as well have brought a tier 3.

  12. I hear that if it fails, we can always ask help from the community in the balancing department. So no worries indeed comrade.
  13. Yamato is a billion times more glass cannon than she is. Too bad @El2aZeR doesn't have his top view from RTS days of yore anymore for confirmation, but I'm sure he has heard me say "Ah I'm giving to much broadside to X here" a lot by now and saw exactly nothing when he looked at me later on.
  14. Can you, or someone else, explain me what the hell is supposed to be attractive about those ships? Imho they enhance even more static gameplay (look at me mom I'm reversing bow-on like a pro) and combine the worst of 2 worlds: can't overmatch cruisers like bbs, can't tank like bbs, don't have the stealth/dps like cruisers. Once again one of those ships if I were to get it for free I might sell them for credits, if not out of fear that I would get the exact same ship later.
  15. I've been "testing" Slava extensively (cause she is God's gift to mankind), and there is nothing glass about her. Both as part of testing and as "why would I even care cause I'm masterrace" I've been giving a lot of broadside regularly. Punishment lmao.

    CV Rework Discussion

    I don't follow Jingles, so I don't know if he said CVs were gamebreaking (as following from only non-CV games are worth showing) But Flamu has become a joke, where he is just delivering on demand his specific toxic blend of "circlejerktainment" for his special-ed viewers. Too bad, cause he is a good player and knowledgeable, but I can't take his views serious anymore underneath that streamer camouflage. I saw in the Q&A that SO said smt about seeing to much "echo room talk", and I hope they keep that stand. It's getting ridiculous.

    We need a video of "how it works" on IJN AP bombs vs certain BB

    You got to drop early on US ones, but the cits are quite reliable. For the frenchies, just don't even bother.

    poor you - you were so confused you missed that juicy juicy freddy And I wouldn't bet on getting a follow up. The cv-bugcollection thread I made had multiple ppl pinging WG staff for a response. None came.

    CVs this is not working!

    He shot down a lot of planes in some games vs monkey carriers. Now he thinks that boat has objectively good AA. Kidd/groz story all over again.

    Dear Yamato captains

    As other ppl have said, it's those stupid missions where you have to set fires. I have them all the time with BBs. (don't always do it cause F it) Blame WG and their braindead mission design. You would think they'd have learned by now, right?

    the "carry harder!" thread

    I'd like once more to thank Wargaming out of the depths of my heart, for nerfing DoT into oblivion to save the masterrace and making their high tier economy accommodate to the mongrels - so everyone can now play tier ten over and over while doing 20k damage.

    Balancegrad shows it weakness in CBs, where more and more clans only take one. In randoms you can kill club plebs. Who knew one should learn to angle in this game?

    inb4 pobeda is deemed too weak, and gets put at t9, together with the rest of the BS premium BBs. I'll happily div with your enterprise then

    +1 WG, make it so! I barely play Memeway anymore (don't hurt me El2a). Hakekiku is where it's at More complete: T4 CVs are weak (afaik, I only enjoyed her majesty's herpes a few times) T6 are meh, depending on matchmaking Shokaku is probably horse$hit, unless she has luck and is top tier. Even tier 9 will probably be painful, given spam of bs ships like jean bart. Lexington is fine. So yeah, in a way you're right, and I'm mainly talking about tier ten, especially given the horrid state of matchmaking for anything not tier ten (or 4), but as El2a said, the exact same thing was going on in RTS - with possible exception of tier sevens, and certainly exception of saipeen.
