Then we meet a different playerbase. 99% is "a bit" high. And yes, broadsiding players get citadelled.

How and why is it possible to have a T10 with below 200 random games and a 'very bad PR'
ColonelPete replied to Port_Authority's topic in General Discussion
Really? This again? CoOP Ranked Operations Special modes like Arms Race Money -
I did not make such a claim. In 5v5 teams and without Tiers, it works quite well.

Ask Armored Warfare and how it worked out for them

is there any way to get base XP faster?
ColonelPete replied to VedranSeaWolf359's topic in General Discussion
Yes, play better. -
Bots straightline more and you usually shoot them from closer range.

WG customer support being toxic and ignoring feedback
ColonelPete replied to Illumifant's topic in General Discussion
Even I heard about that some time ago and I never played WoT. I am not sure I would call that rigging. In the beginning, some premium ships in WoWs had permanent improved MM. -

No idea what you mean with that, but WoWs has a beginner protection. -

It is obvious that you do not know the difference between game mode and battle mode... https://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Game_Modes -

That is not nearly the same... But you might learn that some day. -

Not exactly what you wrote, not even a translation of that, but indeed that is quite rude. -

If they really said that, you should contact a community manager. -

You do not accept their answer and they do not accept anymore tickets of yours about the topic. Where is the problem? If there is no MM, how do you get into a match then? Does it get willed into existence by someone or does there exist code that tells you which players go into which match? all the stats in the world do not help you, when the unicum on your team has a bad day, is unlucky, gets called away, etc... MM by winrate is a VERY bad idea, which you could have know if you informed yourself about the topic, as it changes the metric you use to setup matches - when everyone is around 50% WR, how is the MM supposed to work? It will be as random as before -

You can select the game mode you want to play freely ok It is subjective what is realistic and what not, but filtering out tropical ships is already implemented. One has just to know how the game works. Rental CW ships are not test ships I think they are working on that that can be avoided with experience, but if it worked the other way around, people would complain that the system tells them not to shoot while they could hit the target I would like that too, but the last time people complained about stronger bots -
Matchmaker Discussion Thread & MM Balance
ColonelPete replied to Excavatus's topic in General Discussion
That is the way you sell it to us. You are whining about the MM, but you still continue playing the game, only to whine some more. -

How so? I do not see a problem, apart from the fact that these amounts are neglible. -
Sov.Soyuz and the average to bad player story.
ColonelPete replied to cimmerian_steel's topic in Battleships
This is a public forum. I can decide for my own if I want to post or not, as can the people opening a thread decide if they want to bring their issue to the publics attention. I usually do not insult other players, that is too primitive, but I may make fun of people who obviously are not interested to learn. People who honestly ask for help, do get it from me. People that do not want help, will not improve, no matter what other people write to them. They just look for affirmation of their views, which is that they are blameless and that the problem lies somewhere else (the ship, the other players, maps, WG, the Pope or the position of the stars,.... -
Sov.Soyuz and the average to bad player story.
ColonelPete replied to cimmerian_steel's topic in Battleships
I am not their mommy. People blaming a ship lack a fundamental ability to improve: self-reflection. Blaming someone/something else is the death of self improvement. Such people do not want to learn, just vent. There are people who get paid to listen to that. That she is one of the strongest ships on her Tier. The rest is mostly worse. -
Sov.Soyuz and the average to bad player story.
ColonelPete replied to cimmerian_steel's topic in Battleships
That happens when people do not ask for advice, but whine about a ship. Read the map Approach under the cover of islands, do NOT sit behind them, they are a tool for a moving BB Read the map, when not sure, stay at mid range when there is no cover, read the map again, make sure that you can take the fire, when not, stay back Reading the map is a skill you learn with experience.There are millions of different battle situiations, with many different right and many more different wrong options how to handle them. There is no book for that. You have to learn when it is ok to move forward and when not by experience. Btw. Sojuz is still one of the strongest Tier IX tech tree BB. And there is a good chance the german BC will lose performance the next couple of weeks. http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/20211204/eu_2month/average_ship_u.html -

If you did not use Google, then that might be your problem. Apart from that you need five tech trees at Tier X before gaining access to RB. -
Matchmaker Discussion Thread & MM Balance
ColonelPete replied to Excavatus's topic in General Discussion
You know for over a year that WG does not like you and that everything is their fault and you are too good to ever lose a match, but still you play... -
That is why smart player go for the flanks, it limits the angles, but it does not protect you completly. There is also the small issue that when everyone on your team goes flanking far out, then that leaves the middle open AND you do not get flanking on the enemy, since they just need to angle to one position. There is a similar problem with islands. Islands are good for one or two ships, not more. It is also very static and leaves you open to flanking and torps. Unfortunately, most players are not smart. So these tools are either not used or used wrongly. And as it was explained to you mutliple times, HE does shatter and rarely does full damage. And playing DD does not change that you have the wrong focus on your BB. Most BB Bingo winners are not even that clueless to demand that.

I doubt that is called in the long run...

You cannot angle vs all directions, unless you stay back. The more you sail forward, the more you show broadside to some BB with AP. HE and fire can be managed, as explained often enough. When you get too much damage, you pull back or use cover. BB AP needs one salvo to mess up your gameplay. You should play them for their main guns. That is where BB do their main damage and you can even direct it better.
-
Tier X has also the highest fire resistance Fire is only a small part of the damage done and many ships can heal that. BB AP is much devestating. Accurate BB AP and long range is what keeps ship at a distance. One can manage fires. You cannot manage a devestating strike.
