Hate to break it to you but we DID get the Katori. For Free. During the Greant Naval Battles event.

A week has passed and this ranked season will end in a few weeks. Any update on this reward front? Tried to find Superleague games, but there just weren't any.

German march event calender says that the patch will come on March 10th (though that is a friday...)

While crates are quite literally a gift from Wargaming and as such are free stuff you get extra for playing the game, they're also a mean by which they keep you intersting in playing the game on a more frequent basis. When looking at the latter, I can't help but feel underwhelmed by the new modules in the supercontainers. May be it's just me but I can't make much use of them. Worse still, if I mount them and find that I'd rather use something else instead, I have to pay Dubloons to put them back to stock. We're talking actual money here, which just makes me think over and over again before I actually make my mind up to mount such a module, as it can be replaced by another module, but I can not easily rebuy one of those new modules in case I change my mind. This is a major factor for me which leads to not mounting them in the first place, thus rendering them even less useful for me. These days, I can afford to spec a captain "wrong" since I can theoretically retrain him with elite / free XP, but in the case of modules, I can't demount them with credits only, which flatly eliminates my desire to experiment with them. Instead I'll probably just wait and see what others (*cough* Youtubers *cough*) are going to do with them.

Was macht die Sims dann anders als alle anderen DDs? Zumale ihre Torpedoes den mit Abstand geringsten Schaden machen.

Habe davon keinen einzigen mitbekommen.... ? Habe da nur die ersten 2 Zeilen gelesen, der Rest ist zu unleserlich dahingewurschtelt um sich die Mühe zu machen.

Das geht mir auch so. Nach den ganzen gewerteten Gefechten ist normales Random irgendwie...

Fazit ranked season 6: Dasselbe wie in den vorherigen seasons: Teilweise wahnsinnig frustrierend wenn man Ränge verliert und nichts (zumindest nicht immer) daran Schuld ist. Mehrere Spieler aus meinem Clan verzichten nur aufgrund des negativen Fortschritts darauf an den gewerteten Gefechten teilzunehmen. Dann sind die Belohnungen... nunja... sagen wir mal nicht jedermanns Sache. Die Mehrzahl der neuen Module werde ich wohl nicht nutzen, zumindest nicht in ihrem jetzigen Zustand. Signalflaggen wären mir da ehrlich gesagt lieber gewesen. Und zuletzt wäre es schöner gewesen wenn der Matchmaker die Fähigkeiten der Schiffe berücksichtigen würde, zumindest bei dieser Form des Gefechts. 3 Radar auf einer Seite und kein Radar auf der anderen Seite ist schon happig. Ebenso wenn man als DDs eine Kiev und eine Blyska hat und der Gegner zwei Shiratsuyu. Die Karten Trident und New Dawn finde ich zu klein für diesen Modus mit dieser Schiffsstufe. Wenn ich da mit einer Scharnhorst auf New Dawn bin, bin ich automatisch über die halbe Karte sichtbar.

I'd argue that even this isn't determined by your own skill.

Met waxx25 two days ago. Quite a decent guy (for a colonial).

Es ist schon bezeichnend wenn nun vor allem solche Spieler diese neue Regelung gut finden, die am wenigsten "Gefahr" laufen in der Superleague zu spielen.

IIRC it's the same new rule on RU server as well.... :-/

Mit dieser Änderung ist die Superleague einfach nur uninteressant geworden. Warum nicht einfach mal einen Container für jeden mit 500 base XP? Damit hättet ihr das Problem sofort beheben können ohne diese Superliga direkt im Keim zu ersticken. "Balancing" mit der Brechstange...

Just make it "reach 500 base Xp" = get acontainer.

I guess Superleague died right there with those very restrictive rules.

Credit to the OP: He's not raging but staying calm, taking advise and trying to improve. If only that was the usual pattern.

Wenn man zu lange in der Warteschlange sitzt, nimmt der MM alles was da ist und wirft es in ein Gefecht. Stufe 2-3 ist ohnehin nicht besonders dicht bevölkert, da brauchst du dich echt nicht wundern wenn sowas passiert. Sowas dann als lächerlich zu bezeichnen ist schon ... besonders. Die Alternative wäre, so lange zu warten bis sich genug Leute für low tier Gefechte finden. Was dann eben auch mal 10-15-60 Minuten dauern könnte.

That's not a thing, really. It would just add more stress to finding a time to broadcast that stuff when you add even more timezones. Is that the feedback you got from the contributors who participated in that mesh up? Because quite obviously, opinions outside of that quite small peer group differ substantially. The outside impression, and don't forget that the whole thing was meant to be an event for viewers, not for contributors, was just boring to watch. Constant 12 vs 12 something something is anything but entertaining. The constant babble of x number of people on TS is not entertaining. Half the time you couldn't hear what was going on and at some point TS was just muted so because even ichase didn't get through any more. Worse still, when people introduced themselves they were cut off or at least interrupted all the time. I'd argue that the contributors could not possibly play competitive on a serious level simply because the vast majority of them do not play on that kind of level regularily. When you argue it was a success because of number of viewers, then you have to understand that this wasn't an unusual high ammount of people watching. As Reyte said, some of those contributors draw quite a lot of viewers during their regular streams. When you hold those numbers against the ~2200 peak viewers during the saturday stream, that's a comparatively low number of viewers.

In what regard? Do you just take the number of viewers as a measure here? Then I'd better switched off that pointless, uninformative and very chaotic background chatter instead of leaving it running in the background.

Pretty much this. Been around in Belfast, too. Trying to positiong myself so that I can make use of Radar means I can end up exposed and sunk without being first on my team. But I rather play for winning a battle than not losing a star.

With 72 ranked battles this season, I doubt you've seen enough games to make a qualified statement there. However... The whole concept of losing a star is demotivating. It's usually not up to you to win a battle, it's a group effort and if one or even two people doing poorly will cost you a battle. I do believe that this is why that many people are frustrated with ranked. On the other hand, if the missions are anything to go by, the alternatives may be even less enjoyable.

Couldn't stand it any more... People talking all the time, one over the other... 12 vs 12 something something all the time... I mean, I left the stream running but it just ran in the background and I didn't pay much attention to it, if any at all. There was a distinct impression of utter chaos.

Smoke shouldn't be an issue these days. AFAIK, in the last patch or the one before that, smoke was changed in such a way that the last puff will always come.

Erm... das Thema des threads ist "Was tun um CVs zu fixen". Insofern gehört das durchaus hier rein, oder nicht?
