There's something very off about Match making and RNG in WoWs, its almost impossible to take this game seriously. Stats are also nonsense in a game that's clearly 50% skill 50% luck, i get a chuckle when WoWs white knights pratter on about them, while only ever playing as part of a division. Wonder how some of you would do in MWO solo queue, i'm betting most of you would give up and never make it out of tier 5.

And the award for "Most Toxic Gaming Community" goes to World of Warships! :crowd boos:

Meh, used to waiting months with MWO mechpack pre-orders, a week is nothing, but i do understand the complaint.

Nice video of the Richelieu, the start of the vid has really interesting footage of quad bofors in operation, how many sailors it actually takes to operate just one mount.

All i see since the last patch is one sided rolls, either your team evaporates or the enemy team evaporates, there's no fight, there's no competition. It's not a fun or rewarding experience, it encourages toxicity and further bad play as players that once cared about how they play, stop caring after repeatedly getting put into games the MM knows they can't win. Note this discourages new players from staying, and inhibits the progress of those who stick it out, clusterf**k is an accurate description of WoWs at this point.

I'd like to see WoWs on steam, just simply to see how fast it would inevitably end up with 100% negative reviews.

Divisions in random battles is one of the major reasons the MM is so horrible, other games separate grouped from non-grouped for a reason.

As the title says.... World of Warships in a nutshell: "Amazing looking ships with amazing ingame sounds, absolute garbage balancing/mechanics and gameplay"

Divisions should be in their own queue, mixing solo players with grouped players leads to problems with Match Making.

Like i said in another thread, its quite clear the MM is per-determining the outcome of matches, betting against one team and placing modifiers to ensure its guess. Quick play is a clusterf**k rendering the game not worth it.

This might make you feel better, my Scharnhorst gets matched against T9 BB Divisions, 3 Iowas melt my super cruiser pretty fast. I think the novelty of pretty ships and awesome guns sounds has worn off, whats left is the bitter taste of imbalance. PS. I think my Mechwarrior Online burnout is coming to an end, yay!.

Real men run Divisions and exploit the MM to ensure their dominance in their games. .

This MM works by creating 2 teams,, it bets against one of the teams, then applies modifiers to both teams, the team it bets against will experience increased dispersal, less chance to pen and do damage, less chance of hitting citadels ect ect. The team it bet for, will experience reduced dispersal, increased chance to land citadels ect ect. You can also find yourself forced into a cycle of the MM betting against the teams you are put on, thus losing streaks. There's quite clear patterns to this if you pay attention to it, this has been documented in a number of other games with supposed random match making, where its actually just a system of simulating randomness. In truth a genuine random and fair match making system would not only be incredibly complex (more than the game itself), it would also require literally hundreds of thousands of players to function properly.

WoWs has many beautifully designed ships, but Scharnhorst is currently the only "supermodel".

Ewww Segal, nothing Heroic about that guy at all.

I think you will find quite a few other gaming communities have openly discussed the use of modifications in WoWs, and its generally garnered a negative view of this game and rightfully so.

This thread is exactly why this game and its player population have zero integrity, and also why the rest of the gaming world points and laughs.

There's quite a few cruisers that can easily ruin a Scharnhorst's day, especially if they are in a wolf pack. T9 cruisers can easily stand up to you in a straight fight and win.

Found this on youtube a while back.

Worth the wait and worth the money.

The Scharnhorst is my dream ship, and i've so far i've hit citadels against New Mexico's, Kongo's, Fuso's and even against an enemy Scharnhorst too. Whats not to like, amazing gun rotation, amazing reload, amazing shell velocity, good range, your fast and turn quite well and the ship is drop dead gorgeous to boot.

Shouldn't that be "He", i thought the French referred to their ships a masculine.

Okay so recently i've been playing the Nagato and Tirpitz a lot ( i usually play cruisers), i've also been observing other BB players. With both these ships recently i've been finding my shells either bounce or pen doing no damage or dispersal is so bad you have no chance of hitting anything. While observing others play BBs i notice some have the same problems as me, but i notice some players seem to have little to no dispersal and do horrendous damage with every hit. So my question is: How do i get my BB to have the same virtually non-exsistent dispersal and huge damage i've seen others enjoy? Don't get me wrong, i can lead targets fine and get hits, but like i said even broadside targets like cruisers bounce my shells or they pen with no damage, its kinda starting to get to me a little.

I was actually thinking about that, just need to remember to have shadow play running.

So is this why IJN lost to the US? brightly coloured ships captained by bug eyed teenage girls who are sexually coveted by male adults!.
