I thought I had seen everything playing WOW but I could not believe what I saw today. In a Co-op game, two of my "team mates" decided to attack the carrier while I was dealing with the last BB. One of these ships was so close to the carrier that they could have jumped over to the carrier to have a look. Their ship had torpedoes and being that close I thought night night for the carrier. But I was wrong, after trying to dodge torpedo planes and dive bombers, I saw my team mate fire off torpedoes at short range and HE MISSED!!!!! To make matters worse, they get themselves on the edge of the map and therefore cannot turn their ship to fire torpedoes on the other side. I lost my concentration and got sunk, but instead of going back to port, I decided to witness this person trying to kill the carrier. It was painful. The ship was not a Tier 1 or 2 but Tier IV. I can only think that this person had not had a ship before with torpedoes and therefore was not sure what to do. So, for all those players new to WOW, make sure you know how to use the tools of the ship! BTW - The other ship that went after the carrier was either laughing too much at the events or stunned in disbelief.

After reading the great posts, I have to agree that WOW needs to be sure you do not get penalised due to a bad connection(s). Please WOW, sort out the people who like to keep in top, or bottom, rows and try to win the game that way. It is infuriating to see those "team players" not wanting to get their paintwork damaged while you are trying your best to take out the enemy. I have paid Co-op, Random and Ranked battles in the test server and I have yet to see anyone get penalised for what I call bad play especially those players that like to fire off torpedoes so far out of the range. Good points - - Training room is great. - Thank you for letting me get to play Tier X or Tier IX ships as I am not there yet with the current game version. Makes me want to stick it out in the current game version to reach those ships. - Like the explanations you have put in. The only thing I am not sure is the "Karma" rating. What is that!!! - Match making seemed to have got better. I did not find myself at tier VII in a game where most of the players were Tier IX or X. All you can do in that game is run / hide / shoot / hide and I do not mean camping. - I only played on medium settings but the graphics seemed to be better than on the current game version and I have them set at high. Need work - Penalising bad play (i.e. firing torpedoes at the enemy when a team mate is in front of you, or so far on the borders of the map that they are about to go into another game) by deducting more credits than you do now. - A keyboard control that you can press to say "you are about to hit my ship, turn to port". - Maybe it was the test server but it seems to take on average about 50 seconds for the "awaiting players". Hope this is not going to happen when the update is applied. There are some people who want their ships to have the latest and greatest but I think the ships need to keep to there historical statistics otherwise the game will be useless.

For what it is worth, I use to have this issue when I had 32 bit Windows. I changed it for 64 bit Windows and I have never had the problem again. By the way, I am using Windows 7 so I do not know if that helps. I do not like Windows 10 as it has too much crap on it for my liking.
