Yeah, the torp reload seemed a bit OP. Just pop smoke when BB break consealment/torp range and just spam torps to death.

Sweet tnx! I thought you could tell those weekends well in advance? I will free XP the last part to my Grober, im so sick of the trollish dispertion of my Frederich now. I just thought it was kind of odd that they released the content about the DD and Flamy gave one away in a contest but then nothing?! Nothing in the shop and no mentioning of the ship elsewhere?! I thought they had redeemed it to OP or something?

Had a good game burning down the world in the Kutuzov. Kraken Unleashed Confederate High Caliber Arsonist Witherer

I dont know if this is working as intended but i only get this after really shitty games like when you get detonated by a DD HE shell, so im like "Really WG? Really?"

Yeah those rookie torps was something else. Of course no one mention that in the comments of the video?!

Yaeh. Imagine a rouge Kitakami noob sailing behind youre DD into a cap.........

Seriously!? If you think Blys or any other premium performs bad after the last changes, guess what, its not the ship that is the problem. If you depend on stealthfire on these ships you need to L2P.

Khaba - The Perfect Game!

In my mind there is no question about it! Dont get me wrong, they are both extremely strong ships and worth to buy. but if you only gonna buy one, you must buy Kutuzov! She is so much stronger! Learn to play her to her streangh and you will become the Terror of the Ocean mate. She burns down and kills with no remorse. She rules the T10 and slaps them about like they are nothing.

Hey Buddy! Ive been thinking about something for a while now and i recently got reminded watching this Notser vid and especially the comment he makes about the Atlanta using radar at this point https://youtu.be/UHo2dvyi3bw?t=11m26s Its a situation where an Atlanta at the cruisial end part of the game uses radar on a low health Belfast so the team can take him out and that could have had a great impact on the ending of the match (since Belfasts has potential to make and break a game). And Notser goes on and talks about what if the game rewarded this kind of stuf? What if the game took notice that the only reason you could kill that Belfast was because the Atlanta radared him for you! And what about if the game took notice and rewarded more things like this. I love this game. Never played a game for this long ....ever! Never sunk (phun intended) so much money into a game that i have done this (dont really wanna think about the amount but im guessing i fund atleast 2 full time employees at WG by now ... ). But the game has flaws, of course! What game doesnt. But i feel that some of the biggest issues i have with the game is the things that makes you rage/hate/creates a cancer in the community things. For instance, it isnt really anything in the game to promote teamplay (i feel) and hence you see alot of players doing their own thing, not caring about the objective, not caring about the team, not caring about the teammates etc etc. What if WG implemented some things into the game to change this (and i think this could be an easy fix, not really a programmer tho....) For instance, what if the game rewarded with great XP and credit rewards a ....... 1. BB pushing up and tanking a bit with its great HP pool and actually supporting the team! The gameclient should be able to see positioning on the map, range to enemys, how much damage and heal he gets (the game allready have something like this on the endscreen where it shows hom much potential damage you have tanked - Then why not reward this number? I had games in my kutuzov where i had potential damage between 1.5-2 M. HP!?!). 2. A DD that scouts a huge torpwall infront of several or one friendly BB! Making DDs play their role as a fleet escort and helping the BBs to do point nr.1 more safely. What if DDs got rewarded for this? Cant be hard for the game to see these instanses and reward them, right? 3. A DD that pushes infront of a hurting/burning BB or cruiser and smoking him up so he can avoid more damage and heal up! This would of course also help the BB out to perform point nr.1 (for lets be honest, 1 big rage source is BBs sitting in the back sniping and not tanking anything for the team while cruisers and DDs in the frontlines are dying. Just as DDs not doing scouting or helping out the team with smokes are a big rage issue for BBs and cruisers. 4. A CV that sends planes to scout and help out capping DDs at caps instead of sending them around the mapborders to snipe enemy CV, leaving the capping DD out to dry to fight of enemy planes and DDs. 5. A CV that uses fighters to save DDs, cruisers and BBs that are being engaged in enemy CV attacks? 6. A DD that uses his smoke to conseal friendly ships capping in a capzone and using his smoke to conseal friendly ships about to be attacked by planes! 7. "Killsteals"! What about if the game gave you a new cool ribbon and XP reward if you done lets say between 70-90% of the damage to a enemy ship and someone else finishes him of? A "Kill Assist" ribbon that can look like the "Kill" one but maybe just a lighter colour?! Wouldnt this take away alot of rage and frustration in the game? What if you finish a game with 4 kills and 3 KillAssists? WG could even make it so 2 "Assists" count as 1 "Kill" towards the "Kraken", so you only needed 4 kills and 2 Assists? This bonus would be a great boost for all cruisers. 8. Big bonus for cruisers that kill enemy planes while escorting pushing BBs? It would be great for teamwork and the BB players if more cruisers did this and now the cruisers would be rewarded for it. Someone would probably point aout to me at this point that this is just alot of bonuses to DDs and cruisers, but it really isnt. BBs already get great rewards ingame for their big damage output. And implementing these points into the game would make it even better and easier for BBs to get greater numbers of XP and credits in the game. So it benefits all at the same time as it takes away alot of the "Potatoing" and the frustration and the rage. And i know i brought this up before. But for this game to really work as a teamsport you need communication. I would like to see them expand the different types of quickmesseges you can do "on the fly" in a match by replace the current F-keys system with "crapmy timbers" (always usefull .... ) by a system like the "Commo-rose" in BF3-4 where you just push one key and get a big commo-rose with a big amount of commands for instance "Im Detected" would be nice, or "He just damage conned, focus fire him" would also be pretty good. And i know its a double edged sword but live coms like the one they put in for ingame divisions? I know some are gonna abuse this , but then you can always mute them. And the game would have a autofunction where when a teammate dies he cant speak any longer in live coms, only rage in chat where you easy can switch him of. Wouldnt you guys want to be able to talk live to the few remaining ships on the team in the end of a cruisial game? Thats would be a gamechanger! Be able to make up a last minute, hail Mary play on the fly with a fellow teammate to take out the remaining enemy ships? And the dead players could be sent to a paralell channel where they could discuss (if they want) what happened in the game and why. This also futher improving new players understanding the mechanics and i think often take away the rage and frustration you can feel after a match. Because now you would be able to talk to someone you feel have made a great or a bad thing in the match and he gets the chans to explain hes thought process behind his moves. Lets face it, i think alot of the rage and hate comes from us not really understanding why a player did what he did. But if he could talk to you, maybe, just maybe you get to learn a new tactic! I can give you a real example. When i play "Northern lights" and the daytime version of it (dont remember the name) with 4 caps domination mode, i always try and go for D then C thru the channel. Meanwhile the majority of all players (even my mentor Flamu) says that this is bad and a waste of time, i have learned that sometimes alone or with just 1 or 2 teammates you can easily secure 50% of the maps caps. And i can back up this tactic with a crap-ton of videos on my Youtube channel if you don believe me, meanwhile the 80% of the team that goes A-B almost never manage to secure them, so i pretty much secure a lead or a win for my team all alone. Sry for the wall of text but i think these are really important issues that right now ruin the game and creates a ton of rage and hate in the forums and ingame. And i think this should be a pretty easy fix for WG that will not only boost the game and the numbers in the playerbase but also boost the experience for us players in random and also much in ranked. One last thing that just came to me. What if their was a XP/Credit deduktion for ships that is in the outer squares on the map after the start? Especially in 3-4 cap domination? This would be even for CVs, why should CVs sit in the corner or map edge? Why should they not be closer to their fleet? Moving with their fleet so their bombers has shorter flighttime ti targets? and bigger possibility to aid the fleet with fighters since they are sailing right next to them? Now im finally done! Whats the verdict?

So i guess the next step for WG is to take away all the islands in the game because at this stage islands are pretty much the only place for DDs and cruisers to do any damage to BBs without getting nuked, radared, plane spotted, hydrad etc etc to death. So soon BB players will start to nag WG about those pesky islands that DD and cruisers hide behind and ambush their rudder-missing BBs with. So next patch WG will remove all islands for the benefit of all the BB players that cant learn to counter plays and tactics and then it will be Ocean map for everyone ! ! !

I can say this, i dont know crap about programing or making online games, but at the same time i also feel like if you look at all the stuff the game actually can keep good record of ingame today i feel that these things i mentioned couldnt be so far of. Sure the game cant interpered you reason for popping smoke, is it just for you or for a friendly in need? But at the same time it should be able to see that a BB that lost half his HP in the last 2 min suddenly get undetected by youre smoke and stop loosing health for 3 min. And the same with the planes, the game should be able to tell that i am 2-3km away from a BB in my Kutuzov when i shoot down 3 squadrons of divebombers that was targeting that said BB. Earning me a Fleet Escort ribbon and XP gains. And that i in my DD are located between my fleet and enemy ships and all the divebombers i intercept/spot and all the torps i spot also earning me a nice Fleet escort ribbon lets say. But still, its not really the XP gains or credit gains im after here but instead just wanting this game getting a better, less toxic feel by its playerbase. How much more fun wouldnt this game become if players actually did more things for eachother instead of just playing their lonewolf, out for them selfs playstyle. I for one always love the games you have when DDs smoke up BBs that are actually tanking for the team and Kutuzovs pushing forward shooting down planes and sinking DDs. Games where players actually complement eachohter in chat and gives +1 to eachother instead of just bashing, raging and reporting. I know, probably a stupid idea! Forgive me, im Swedish!

Its a Hard Carry when you have the same stats on the loosing team that the nr1 guy in the winning team.

Whats wrong with the postgame statsscreen? Kutuzov Hard Carry Deluxe!

Anyone knows how to record gameplay for Youtube in a simple way but still with good quality? Anyone known how guys like Voulevous, Flamu, Notser, Jingles etc etc does it? Can i use the simple replayfile i get after every match or is that to bad quality? And if so, whick program do i use to edit and upload it with? Are their any other programs that work well on above medium computerrigs? What about Fraps or Shadowplay? Which software program is best for editing and putting on commentarytrack on a video? (it helps if it easy to use). Any tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

I have all 3 ships and i cant really see how people struggle with getting these? I have family with 2 kids, have a full time job and i had Shinome (?) and Spee for ages now?! Not trying to come of as a jerk here but its just a matter of redoing the easy tasks and earning pins to get to next level? And if you own a premium you just load up an moneyflags and go for the 500k+ credits a match missions and you go up a level in 4-5 games.I did both lines using my Kutuzov and moneyflags! The Spee one was a bit harder missions i remember but i got that way before the Shinome because of the timefactor and i really wanted the Tirpitz camo for the Missouri. After i gotten both ships i have returened to the different levels to do all the others tasks that i skipped in the first round (specially all those 500 free XP onces for the Missouri). Even tho both ships can be fun to play at times the one i play the most is Missouri nowdays.

I think you missed my point a bit. Of course the mayority of the playerbase knows that this is a shitty tactic in the start of the battle by now, even tho you still see one or two of those optimists ingame yet. And this was a obvious extreme example. My point was more that if you had a better stat that tells you more what a player actually was worth, instead of talking stats that doesnt really show this you would just be able to dissmiss some directly and the whole [edited]measuring contest would be absolete, since it would be shown to everyone how skilled they really are (and how much crap they are full of). I think im a healthy tactician having served in the military for a couple of years and have learned the mechanics of the game since CBT, but i still think its healthy to question youre decisions when you get reported by some teammembers while carrying a team in a lost game. I for one cant really see this in the current stats we have.

Dont listen to these guys, you should always try and aim for the planes with youre main guns, you will wreck havoc this way + you scare the living hell out of any Kamikaze pilots and you earn the respect of youre team aswell.

Classic!

This! As i said many times before, im not a stats guy, i have no clue to what my stats are at this moment but i do know that i end up top 3 more then i end up bottom half of the scorescreen and that is across all tiers pretty much, but that said i am usually playing good strong ships like Frederich, Bismarck, Zao, Khaba, Moskva and so on so i cant really take all cred. But im just so sick and tired of bad and stupid players throwing some Winrate stats or some other bullcrap stat in youre face and this happens usually when they FUBAR:ed totally. So im just wondering if they have such great freckin stats and mine is so bad, how come im usually on top and they arent? My feelings are just that poor players are hiding behind stats because its easy to do, or something? I understand that stats are stats and the stats doesnt lie, but i have either the time or the interest to google up a guy im in a game with to try and compare stats ([edited]size) on the fly. I would just rather see a better stat then we have at the moment, a stat that actually states how much this fool has contributed on his own in all games and just put that stat up beside his name in the game. This would actually work as a good filter for players to know if they should listen to what a guy says in chat aswell. For instanse, if a guy call out a tactic for all team to go mid-channel on two brothers in the start of the game and you see that this guy has a 22% "total contribution stat" on his name you know that its a suicide move to follow or even listen to that guy, and if another guy in a T10 game close to the end writes a tactic in chat and he has a 70% "total contribution stat" (im trademarking this name btw ) then you would know that this guy is probably at Flamus level or something and you perhaps should consider what he is saying. If we had a better stat then we do i would even probably consider plastering mine in my signature aswell (or probably not ....) Am i totally wrong here? I think my lack of interest in stats are just the way they work at the moment.

I had a pretty hialious game last night where i got reported 3 times from my own team even tho i was top of my loosing team and only one to break 1000XP in a T10 game. I was playing the Udeloi on that map where its a huge bottleneck/killbox between A and B, so every player in the right min knows that if you want 2 caps you need to try for B and C. One of the T10 BBs said A B in the start and got directly answered by the 4 DDs on our team that we need to go for B and C because of the bad location of A. Of course, cruiser and BB players at T10 being as they are they still went for A without any DD cover and meanwhile us 4 DDs had already reched and started to cap B and C without any support. The BBs and and cruiserplayers going A started to call us [edited]for not falling to their mighty will and i made the misstake to answer in chat that maybe they can read what we say in chat or even perhaps throw an eye on the minimap and they would know why they didnt have any DDs at A because its a lost cause. So of course i was a huge retard and a fuckin noob because i wanted 2 caps in a 3 cap dom mode and how could i even talk back to the mighty, holy, supreme cruisers and BBs? I capped the C cap and unfortunatly our 2 DDs that went for B died because all our cruisers and BBs where busy dying at A. So after i capped C i went and capped B aswell killing a T9 and a T10 BB and cruiser on the way. But of course we ended up loosing this game. And during all this all those cruisers and BBs kept spamming the chat with report the Udeloi and calling me this and that, while i was the guy capping both caps for the team and the guy with 2 out of 3 kills? Sometimes it just feels like you cannot win. I actually would have liked to be on TS or something with these guys just to be able to try and understand their point of view. Were all us 4 DDs wrong in this instanse? Should DDs always follow BB into certain death and losses? Im just baffled over the lack of self consciousness of some players, i mean i was top earner on the team and im not even sure i made the right play here, but i really didnt see another way for us DDs to play.

Sry for doublepost but that one has to go up on my wall..... A slow clap for WG!

I actually like Flamus "no [edited]" approach to reviews unlike many of the other , specially the US contributers ones. Seriously?! WTF are WG up to? First the Z-52 and now this hunk of junk? Dont they want the players to grind to the top of the tree anymore? I met one of these in my Khaba for the first time last night and i first got pretty scared since i had half his health and ive seen the old Grozovoi video Flamu did and wasent aware of the nerfs. But i killed that almost full health Groz without breaking a sweat and as you show in this video he didnt stand a chans, he couldnt dodge any of my shots, i just played with him until he died and he managed to take 2000 HP of me which i healed back with my new heal. Why do they release a great fun version to the Supertesters and Contributers just to nerf it for the release? Their must be a scam going on here? Why not just tell all those who gets to try the good version that they cant release any videos on them if they gonna nerf them to death like this? Or are WG just out to try and fool their customers? Regarding Udeloi. Im not a stats-guy so im not totally aware of the changes they did or didnt do to her but i grinded mine last night and had an amazing 10 match consecutive wins in her where my worst position were top 3 in the match in every match so i would recommend you grinding and unlocking her, she IS still great! And was this thing really to OP so it had to be nerfed like this? Sure it was an AA monster, but how many CVs do you actually encounter in T10 games? As i said in my previous post, this thing is now totally worthless, it cant do anything good and hiding the "good" torps behind 30.000 XP is such [edited]. A Gearing and a Khaba kills this ship in their sleep. So i just dont understand why WG would go into so much trouble and work just to piss of the players once again with a totally nerfed broken T10 DD and the job of creating a new subline that no one will grind? Im just dumbstruck!

No stat are perfect but i still think this stat is way better then any stat recorded at the moment. And when you say "selfish little... who farms damage", and he gets nr.1 position in the team? I cant really see how he was selfish? I dont like big T10 heavies sitting in spawn sniping (yes, im looking at you Yamato!) but if hes that good at farming damage on the enemy team that that gives him NR1 spot on the team then he deserves good stats and he has contributed more to the team then probably half the rest of the team that must just have Derped big time that game. But i dont see many sniping T10 BBs getting that nr.1. spot. Usually those cowardly Yama and other T10 BB players end up in the bottom half of the XP list. So i believe that this stat would actually be the best one yet. Its just very sad when you have 100+ games where you carry the team like a Donkey, earning you the nr.2 spot in the match XP wise, the nr.1 spot on the loosing team and all you get is a +1 on youre loosing stat and a - on winrate. Sure, some will now argue that it will always equal out because sometimes you get carried by other teammates, but the thing is for some players they do much more of the lifting either they win or loose. And since about 90% of the players ingame and in forum has such a Gigantic Hard on for Winrate stats it would be nice to see how they as a individual players has actually performed. I for one welcome this stat, because i feel i have nothing to hide and dont wish to hide behind a stat that isnt all mine.

Dude! I already tried this theme in this thread http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/74548-assist-and-objective-xp-rewards-teamplay-to-make-the-game-better/page__fromsearch__1 and i got downvoted. Nice to hear someone else wants this aswell.
