sooo... how long you haven't played?

Dude... don't call them... Happy Hogswatchnight to all, though it's still a couple days away. Don't forget to put some Sherry and a pork pie on the table for the Hogfather.

...unless you need it for missions

over 3k battles... nearly 900 in BBs.. (second most played class...) doesn't know what "potential damage" means... ...

^-- What this guy said...

...not getting hit at all. That's usually not an option though, so the rest You wrote is absolutely right.

I wouldn't dare to complain about BBs doing their job... it's only the 80+% of BaBBies I complain about... those that have absolutely no clue of how to play the game in any class and just sit in a BB because of the big BOOOOM! sound the guns make when they are fired and because "BB is mighty shiny invincable ship - puny DD/Cruiser should not be able to damage it - so nerf all but BB!!!!" Way too many among the BB players in the game... so sad... game could really be fun if it weren't for BaBBies (and their like in other classes, though the % of potatoes in other classes isn't as high as among the BBs) And I don't watch game streams... it's effing boring to watch other people play a game. Especially when they talk like utter creeps or psychos... I'm too old to enjoy stuff like that... must be a generation thingy, I guess...

Seems You play a different game than I do... 'cause usually when I play DD or Cruiser all I see from BaBBies is their silhouette on the horizon far behind me or, even more often, begind some island far behind me... Oh, and when I'm playing my BBs usually I am the idiot trying to tank for the team, hoping that some other BBs will follow me and assist with the push, only to see them far behind me at the horizon or behind some islands... So you really seem to play a different game than I do...

You mean "bad game mechanics", as gameplay (= ways to play the game) have not much influence on detonations

With stuff being gathered with T10 ships to buy advantages in game it's not "good players" having this advantage, but only players with high tier ships... quite a few of which are utter potatoes... so... So for me as someone who mostly plays low- and mid-tier all these changes mean.... well, no changes?!? Less detonations... m'kay... I get detonated about once every 97 battles... so less will make it even more neglectible for me. And another free russian ship just means another ship for me to ignore... So... I can understand that many will see the above as "good news", but for me it's all rather meh... The only REALLY good thing mentioned is, that maybe, just maybe, T7/8 ships won't end up in T9/10 potato battles that often anymore... it's so effing boring to watch all those BaBBies hiding behind even the smallest island they fit behind...

I guess from now on I will go for the flag containers too... I had gathered 100 "luck" containers during the last months. The #100 was the only supercontainer I got. And from it I got 100 "have greater fire chance with bombs and guns above 160mm caliber" flags... so happy - not... From the other containers I got 150k credits, quite a few flags - but only 4 per container - and 13k free exp. Couple camos, but nothing really good.. So in the end, considering the chances to get a supercontainer are slim and that I never got anything really good from one - usually flags... - it's not worth to take that gamble.

Thread title is wrong... it should be: T10 BBs = BaBBies!

Somebody has to say it: Can I haz Ur stuff???

Do you lock directions often on your guns/torpedo launchers? if not, you won't notice the bug. And no, it has nothing to do with the mouse(s) of all the people reporting the bug or ping times, which were at around 30 each time it happened to me the last days... If you do use locking, then consider yourself lucky.

yeah, probaly was a "homecoming reward" some people (!) get after having not played for some time. Some people, not all, it seems... the "how to earn" is unclear...

It will not make me buy the DoY

The best part is the limited number of uses until the horn has to "get loaded" again, because without that, a lot of hinks would honk away constantly...

This is not a bug! It's a feature many players looked forward to.

After gathering 100 containers - usually getting one or two per day - I finally got a supercontainer (I mean, a real one... not one of those awarded for missions etc.) In this container was.... 100 x Bonus fire chance for CV bombs and 160 mil calibre guns flag.. That feels so effing super, I can't really stand it...

yep... this seems to be the/a reason for the bug. And maybe even vice versa, 'cause I had my gun turrets (!) on Nürnberg and Leander doing exactly the same sh** as the torp launchers. Click mouse, guns don't shoot... couple seconds later they shoot and it seems it's the direction the torp launchers are locked to. Played two games without locking gun/torp direction and I didn't encounter that bug..

you're doing it wrong... git gud!

And as an addition: this now also happens with ship's guns... Noticed it a couple times yesterday and today... guns don't react immediately on mouseclick, but couple seconds later they shoot at a different direction than I was aiming at... no lag shown, framerate as usual... EDIT: A possible solution seems to be to not lock turrets and launchers to a certain direction. Those failed launches and shots seem to be going in the direction to which either the guns (in case of torp launcher fails...) or the torp launcher (in case of gun shot fails...) are locked at. Played a couple games today without locking turrets/launchers and the bug didnt happen.

don't know about your team's chat - but in interteam you were polite... not much chance to get impolite during that short stay you had

Yeah, not really anything wrong with that, but... players should be treated equally... so it leaves a bad taste in the mouth when some get stuff and others don't... unless... there should be a good explanation for some people getting stuff and others not getting any, like "when he played he was a good paying (!) customer who left a lot of money in our shop before he stopped playing and now we try to make him a good paying customer again by motivating him through some freebies... Just my personal opinion.... would be nice to find something in my port (or rather, that of my unplayed alt...) but being a quite bad customer (= no premium bought ever, only cheaper ships bought, nothing else...) I don't expect anything...

But that is entirely your personal problem of being to good... Look at poor potato me... I have to work real hard to get a good game out of any BB I have - except Orion maybe - so it always is really satisfying if I manage to get a good game out of one... Oh and concerning that anti detonation mod... I don't use it on any of my ships. Whenever I manage to get some anti-detonation flags - so, whenever I get detonated or get lucky with a container - they end up on my DDs...BBs and cruisers don't get any, and still they don't blow up that often... Maybe it's also a Tier-thingy? Do you get detonated more on high or low level?
