Oh yes. I do not think I ever met a single person that did not rave about this game. Graphics at their most basic, but gameplay of the highest order

Guessing this Bastion is a high tier game. I have never seen one yet. My highest tier is a T8 that I rarely play

I know that survey can make you mad when you just suffered a crushing defeat, but I always try and remember that they are asking for your 'overall' feeling, which for me is mostly very good. But yea . . . it can sting

What a pleasant suprise this thread has proven to be. Seriously impressed I am

Looked on there, and now I feel incredibly youthful. If I was into clans and competitive play I would definitely apply. I confess that while I was under the illusion of being the most decrepit keyboard warrior in WoW I felt quite smug.

Damn . . . Congrats, sir, you have me by 5 months

I am guessing you are still quite low tier. Hang in there, after the abomination that is Emerald things get a lot better. Although having said that, I still have the most fun in my Danae.

So quite apart from the OP acting like a complete dickwad with his quitting skillz . . . he also resents spending a 'whole afternoon' doing so. Well I have been at work this afternoon, and given the option to have been playing WoW instead . . . it's a no-brainer

Why do people complain about free stuff?? Be grateful for what you DO get, and stop focusing on Lucky Dip. I have only had 2 SC's and I open two every day, minimum, and three on non-work days. But I am more than happy with the regular handouts. Quit whining, nobody feels sorry for you, nobody can change what you get.

Q: Why can planes spot ships but not be spotted by ships? A: Planes are smaller.

I am in complete agreement with the OP. Just lately WG have done a lot for the player. I sure as heck won't be among the whiners. I would have been happy enough with the containers issued last month, the RN line ticked all the right boxes, this is just added cream for me. I had no interest in the Japan line until the recent ruckus on the fora caught my attention. I actually started playing them and am really enjoying it. Keep it up, WG

THIS. I do the same, but for even less time. I get 90% of the aiming done prior to using sniper. For me I would say it is closer to 2 to 3 seconds

My mistake, obviously. I never even checked the in game client. (that's how important these things are to me) I assumed it was part or tomorrows update. Apologies

They dont go live until tomorrow, and the posted mission is an example only

I'm happy enough with the new containers to bother with this. Most those rewards can be found in them, and I open at least two containers a day If I get one, or even two of the stages without even intending too then so be it. That is how I get most the mission rewards anyway. Just play normally, and eventually you will destroy what is needed as a bonus.

I am a potato . . . there, I said it. In 2995 battles (yes I should cross the 3k today ) I play mostly DD and cruisers (not very well, but I have fun trying) I have never got more than four kills, and that was the one and only time. I get three kills in maybe 1% of battles. Maybe a dozen times have I amassed more than 125k damage. Finishing at the top of the table, do-able, but uncommon. If this is typical of the forthcoming missions then I cannot see me ever finishing one. These are Unicum requirements. Us proles will have to make do with standing on the touchline watching our peers.

I kept all mine too . . . except one. Can you guess which? Clue in the thread title

It has been said many times before on these fora, but once past that load of ***** they call Emerald things do get better. Much better. Leander is worth the pain, trust me and all her sisters who follow her. Although once you hit Edinburgh you'd better have a healthy bank balance

You know you're going to get flamed for this thread, but even so . . .

Premiums I would say (in my experience, I don't have them all) Molotov on 6, Perth on 6 and Belfast on 7(yes I prefer cruisers) Most folks do really well with the good old Blys, but she and I just cannot get along. Non premier, I like Leander. Once you get used to her she's a terrific ride

Play as well as I do mate, and you won't get bothered by them. 2868 battles and I have yet to recieve my first.

Game starts, I am in a DD, I race to the cap zone. Too late, the opposition reach it first and smoke up, I enter the cap and smoke up also. For a few seconds nothing moves. Fearing my smoke might soon vanish I nudge forward a little to see HIS smoke screen past the island between us. I fire off a volley of torps, not really expecting anything. Seconds pass then I see I get four hits, and the opponent is destroyed, just in time as my smoke fades. I dont want to be a sitting duck so start to circle the cap, not realising that the green line indicating the capping progress has not moved. Nor did it strike me as funny that the other guys smoke was still there. Suddenly, from within the smoke comes a second DD, badly mauled by my torps. He had been in there the whole time. In a blind panic I fire off two HE in his general direction. BOOM . . . him gone Two kills within the first two minutes of the game starting. Purely luck, no skill, but that is how I play. I would like to say I went on to carry the match, that I got a Kraken, was the highest scorer even, but no. Seconds later I was still looking at where the second DD came from, ran into an island, got stuck and was quickly torn apart by the opposition. Alas.

They're waiting to see which way most the team go, to follow them, rather than opening up the map. I find I am in one of two team types, every game. Team 1: These guys all cluster together around one of the outer caps, they defend that one cap mercilessly, but won't push out to the other caps Team 2; These guys will win every time. They keep Team 1 boxed in, pick them off one by one, and explore the rest of the map. As one who tends to push ahead at the games start I can completely see where the OP is coming from

The new container system is far more generous than the missions it replaced. I have had two SC's so far, since the system was introduced, and I play around 30 games a day. I am still far happier with what we have, than what we had. Short memories or just greed?

We all play WoWs. We all have fun (hopefully) We have something in common with the other players So why are the other team called 'Enemy' in the post match and pre match display panels? For a few minutes work this could be changed on the in-game screens. Could I humbly suggest 'Opponent'?
