Ahh! Thanks man!

That you are rewarded with on this weekends Challenge. Is that applied to the game you just finshed or can u save them like flags?

The best imho would be a limit to who get a star like 8-900 XP atleast to earn a star and the guys on the loosing team should get one aswell, just to sort out all off those players who still doeasnt seem to understand the gamemode. I thought i was rid off them when i got to rank 10 but they are still there?! A whole lot off them! And the only reason they have made it there must be they have had a team carrying them. Had a round just now on Land off fire, our 2 BBs went straight to top left corner to chase a Tirpitz, meantime rest off the team fought and tried to keep the objective but since we didnt have the big guns with us we eventually died. After 10 min the start to head back in right direction , enemy have both caps and they didnt even manage to kill the Tirpitz who is still on half health?! Our tirp when straight into a torpwall and sunk and match over we lost! How do you think if you are a BB captain and both BBs go up to top corner in ranked? How do u think the game is gonna evolve?! Let all these noobs loose a star every match and then we have all these guys down at rank 15 till they actually learn the game and rank up. And all us others dont have to get an aneurysm for the holidays. So get 8-900 XP and you can get a star everybody else falls down to the minors. And the enemys that fought well also gets rewarded.

Now i just wanna see the video ....

But when i looked it said XP x 1,5 and i have Premium, so does that take away the bonus then? Shouldnt i get like x1,8 atleast?!

Im not trying to Troll here im just so [edited] frustrated! I been grinding Ranged battles for ages now and i take one step forward and two steps backward. Why you ask? Cowardly Battleships captains that dont seem to get that cruising around the mapborders and snipe from afar like they are used to in Random battles doesnt really work in Ranked where you have to play aggresive and follow youre team and cap the caps. But NOOOOO, we have all this HP and these big guns so we can hide easy or maybe just take the scenic route around the map while the rest off the team get totally nuked by the other team whos Battleship drivers actually goes for the objective and sail WITH their fleet and they actually survive ..... and WIN !? Seriously, how many Ranked battles have you played wich ended with whole team gone and 2 BBs are still alive at full health mind you, 80% off the enemy team are still alive and they have both caps! Im wondering. Why do BB players play like this? Dont they wanna win? Dont they wanna rank up (or down actually)? Dont they get how Ranked work? Why is the ships with the most armour and most HP most afraid off taking damage? Last battle i lost right now me and a Kongo was facing 2 DDs a Furutaka and a N.W. I killed the 2 DDs in my Cleveland for our Battleship, both their CA and BB focused on me offcourse. I manage to Citidell Furutaka to death so now we are 2 vs 1. So i think we got this so i turn around and start to machinegun the BB, during this my BB friend thinks its a good idea to run away instead off helping me with the enemy. So i fight for my life alone and manage to start a few fires on the N.M but after a while he killes me and they win by points. My point is Ranked would be so much easier if BBs didnt qualify, then you actually got a team that sailed together like a fleet ..... or ....like a team! And you would win! I never play BBs myself, but can someone that does please tell my why you are afraid with all that HP?

Bought 2 gifts got 250 and 375 Dabloons. Whoever got my gifts, I want them back !

I think we are talking a bit around eachother, but i do get youre point. And i think most got from my first message that i started the topic in the heat off the moment (often an awsome idea... ) right after i had yet another loss with 2 full HP BBs running mapborders and if i offended anyone i appologize. The thing i really was talking about in the beginning was what happened to me about 80% off my ranked games in the first league Rank 18-10 which also to 80-90% featured the Fault line map where whole fleet went into the middle "ocean" where the caps are to secure the caps and the BBs would never follow so not only where they miles away they where also behind a mountainchain so they could do diddlysquat to help the team and offcourse the other teams BB always went in and we were destroyed Or we got the map Straits where south team goes east and north goes west to get a cap each and then you circle the middle and take potshots att ships and their would BBs camp SW corner spawn or go up the narrow channel to peek a boo an island. And in any off these scenarious it isnt really an option for DDs and CAs to "run away" because u are already commited in the fight but u often fight an overwelming force, the option as i mentioned before is to just send in DDs to their certain death or just to hang back all fleet and let the enemys get the caps and almost certain loose. But i do agree that the situation you are talking about maybe moore common in random and maybe in League 2 rank 10-1 where the maps give that option moore. But the same time i cant really agree that CA´s running away so much as they circle around so there not the primary target if they have taken a beating and they let some other ship be a meatshield, but unless they are on critical low health you often see them circle around for a second serving. And its here i think BBs need to take moore responsebility and take some damage for the team. I cant tell you how fuckin furios i get when all DDs and CAs have fought bravely and died and the you look back at the BBs and they have taken zero damage often done zero damage and still have 2-3 heals to use, then you must shake youre head and think if this is World off Warships or Fishboat Simulator. But what i am talking about is ranked, i would never play as aggresive in random where the caps dont play as a big off a role as they do in ranked. And i do comunicate , i spam the chat as often as i can, but sadly you almost never get a response, well you do get alot off "crapmy timbers" or 14-30 "Attention to sector bla bla " so if someone actually answers you never have time to see it. I would really like an ingame voice coms like the one in CS GO, where you can talk to eachother and if some [edited]are trolling you can just mute him.

The thing is i dont want the nagato to sail around alone, because everybody knows its just a matter off time he encounters a torpwall, this is my point. In ranked its pretty much an All IN situation, either you do or you loose. By not following the fleet to the objective the BBs weaken the fleet and put themselfes in a bad spot without any protection so first the fleet dies because the enemy team always seems to have BB captains that goes in with their fleet for the kill and then they all go for the 2 remaining BBs. And still none off them seem to realize that this tactic is fail. Amd the whole fleet cant stay back because if the enemy control both caps from start u gonna loose and if only DDs goes in unsupported they die and then the fleet dies and you loose tha caps. So really the best tactic for a BB in Ranked is to follow the fleet in and stay behind the DDs amd CAs and give them support. The enemy fleet will focus on the DDs and CAs for start anyway because the pose the most imidiet (?) threat with their torps and firespam. This is exactly how i used to play CAs back in the day their was carriers atleast. Nowdays i go upp and support DDs instead because i cant do crapback at spawn , i dont even reach to fire the guns at the enemys, and then as u say a stray DD will pop up and torp the crapout off them while in in the cap fighting and then he will rage on me for not protecting him back at spawn. Teamwork is lost! Just wanted to ad that since starting the thread i managed to reach rank 10 and started my new league will 4 Kills and 2 caps in my Kiev while the both BBs had 1 kill between them so....... Problem fixed! Kiev is freakin OP and i love it, just stay out off 10K and maneuver like a Boss and they cant touch you.

I totally see what you are saying, i dont play BBs, i play 60% CAs and 40% DDs. But my point is if you take youre Battleship and choose Ranked battles where you HAVE to PTFO to win and rank up, then why would you choose a playstyle which works fine in Random but in Ranked cost you the victory every time and robs you off a well earned star? I dont see how so many BB Captain dont see what they need to do in ranked? If i loose 10 ranked games in a row in my BB in ranked and ever time its me and a BB friend left in the end and both caps are capped by the enemy and the enemy fleet With the BBs are charging towards me , i would probobly analyse my gamestyle. Its maybe fragile but so is my Cleveland and i dont have any heals and im most often the prime target for the enemy team and still im charging in with my DDs, protecting them and securing caps. I totally agree, they should get some working coms in the game so its easier to get better teamwork. My point as well. Dont understand why so many who plays ranked dont get this. And i understand the frustration if you as a BB captain dont get the support off the CA and DD and im not saying the BBs should lead the charge but atleast be a part off the charge . As a DD you have concealmentso you are pretty safe but as CA you get spotted fast and then you often get the whole off the enemy teams wrath (because BBs like to get those nice citadels and oneshot kills on CAs) so when i play as CA i need to maneuver quite a bit in the frontline to evoid getting nuked and thet sometimes means i have to fall back and retreat for a while and let someone else tank som damage and thats why i think BBs should stay atleast 3-4 K´s behind so they also have time to react and maybe turn so they dont get left out alone. But my problem is that 90% off the matches they are 20 K´s behind and also behind a big mountain (maybe they wanna wait so they can pick off all those easy kills off low health targets who have fought their CA´s and DD´s) so they cant contribute for crapand they dont tank any damage for the team. But they often survives the match ! Yaaay ! But offcourse they loose the whole team a star.... Maybe rank 10 and below is much worse but atleast then i get to use my Mogami or my Kiev and then i wont be so dependent on what my team does, then i can carry those who cant fight.

Inst this the most easiest problem to solve by developers? Just ad the damage they do to their own ship?! If a teamkiller torps a teammate and his ship explode instead, well you gonna see alot off fewer teamkillers on server now on. Problem fixed? Is there any downside to this solution? DD players are gonna be real caruful the next time the fire off a salvo and friendlys are nearby.

I thought the Challenges were gonna be implemented yesterday with the patch. Looking at Lingles video off the testserver on the changes i was really excited to start and earn all those nice rewards when completing the challenges but they is non?! Anyone known or heard anything about this? They did change the thing that you could change the daily missions but no Challenges.

Maybe its just me, but i think its kind off an epic fail to announce this big new cool feature in a upcoming patch and the when patch arrives 3 out off the 4 tabs in this feature is totally empty and the only info is "please check back later"!?

Well we all got that 1 Mission, but if you look at Jingles video when he tried the new patch on the testserver there where 3 Missions that could earn you alot off credits (like the one we got that gave us 1.000.000 credits) or flags i think and then under the Challenges tab ther was like 9 or 12 different kind off Challenges you could do and you could do them as many times you like during a day and you could earn a bunch off cool stuff, like credits, flags , portslots, Extra fast captain XP(skills) and much more, thats why i eager to know when this is coming, because its gonna be a big change for us grinding to get skills and new ships. *Edit* Just saw the events calender from the launcher and their they say we gonna get Missions portioned out on different weekends first in a few days, i believed these were gonna be avaiable at all times. And the calender doesnt say anything about the Challenges, I think the information from Wargaming is a bit poor here.

I dont know what people are discussing in this thred now but i actually just saw a video that Aerroon(?) posted on youtube about the Mogami 155 HE and you can see clearly that about 30 or 40 shellhits with HE does absolutely no damage on a BB in that match, i dont know if more Mogami players had this experience since friday or if his match was just a strange fluke.

But wasn't these gonna be available all the time since patch? That you would have 3 Missions and like 9 or 12 Challenges active all the time that you could chose from?! And the Challenges you would be able to do how many times you wanted so you could finish the same Challenge 10 times in one day and get 10 rewards? Atleast that was what I took away from watching Jingles video off the testserver on the patch.

Seriously? Theirs no Challenges and no Missions?! Why do they announce this and then dont implement it? And why is their no info about this, dont the developers use this forum?

Just think its odd that they announce and then dont deliver?! I think a bunch off players got upset about this, well well....

Wtf is necro?

Is this really true? I have only played Furutaka and Aoba and i think the Aoba is 100% better then Furutaka wich i free XP´d thru. And what i have seen in Youtube clips the Myoko is far better then Aoba and everybody is singing praises to the Mogami and its 155 spam (its a firestarter like no other) and havent heard any complaints about the tier 9 or the Zao either? So for me this tree seems actually correct, moore then i can say about the US CA tree. Sure the Cleveland is good and i actually thought the Pensacola was great, i had almost only great matches in that when you knew how to play it. But now im so sick off that retarded ship New Orleans wich is worse the Pensacola in all departments that i sold it and gave upp the US cruiserline for the JAP one, because i dont have the stumach to grind 2 crap ships (New Orleans and Baltimore) just to get the Des Moines.

I cant choose any camoflage for my ship anymoore? I still got the ones i used before and enables autorefill on but i cant change to the other kind and isnt it supposed to be a third Halloween variant? So i just bought a new ship, the russian DD Isyalav and i cant choose any Camoflage for it? There is NONE! Have i missed something or is my game just bugged ?

Ok, i think this may be the issue, ive got Aslains mod with trainingroom. Tnx for all tips guys!

The +50% off tubes getting incapacitated, does that mean getting destroyed or just temporarely knocked out? Because i really wanna equip this module for the shorter reload time but not if my main weapons getting destroyed. But if they just get temp. knocked out i can fix that with my Damage controll party II. Anyone using this mod that can give me an opinion? Many tnx!

Bought the Derpsky just for the fun off it. 10 torps at tier 3, you gotta love it! Sure , its pretty crap torps , they are slow and they have 3 K range but its 10 off them! ! ! And they reload in 22 sec! ! ! So pretty much when u fired off youre last doubletube youre ready to go again. And the 3 K isnt that big off an issue if you know how to use the islands and time youre attacks. Speedboost up to a BB and then just circle him while you unload torp after torp after torp at him, i had 5 kills one game, its an amazing ship, and the guns arent really that bad either if you are used to high tier IJN DDs. This is fast becoming one off my favorits, just because its a Derp ship, that WRECKS ! Anyone else had this experience in the Derpsky?

I hear you brother! And the thing is , its not really a crap map, but it was a time between(?) 2 patches that you got this map eaysely 90 % off the time and you got so sick off it, cant stand the fuckin thing. Its like hearing the same hit song 24-7 on the radiostation, after a while you just wanna kill that singer or band and it can still be a good song, but now its watertorture.
