    How to celebrate the release of 0.6.3

    When reading certain threads, i get that feeling that folks are a bit salty because they will not be able to stealth fire anymore after 0.6.3. but maybe i'm wrong on that one. I consider it to be one of the better changes and i'm playing all classes. #nomorestealthfiring #dealwithit #whyyouhefftobemad #waitingforamillionsaltywhinethreadstopopup #DDsarenotdead #learn2usethewasdkeys

    0.6.3 Public Test Patchnotes

    Nope. The KM DDs will remain the crap-line of DDs despite the SF nerf. For now, i consider this change to be a plus, not sure about the removal of alt-attack for low tier CVs tho, i liked to sealclub play low tier games in my langley.

    0.6.3 Public Test Patchnotes

    Because the EU news guys either: are lazy didn't had the info at the time of posting consider EU players to be stupid Looks like a decent-ish patch, lets see how it turns out. +1 for the stealthfire removal! While certain ships depended on it to be somewhat playable it's certainly a good decision. This also makes the KM DDs a bit more playable, as the shittiest of the DD lines wont be any longer the only one spotted.
  4. Was a bad game indeed, yet there's nothing to be sorry for. Our team potatoed and than even blamed you and me for being noobs as we "yolo'ed"... I guess we have to master the art of sitting in the spawn behind an island and blame people who have the audacity to leave the spawn area.

    Discounts

    Different event with a bit weaker rewards and mostly things to spend even more real moneys on than on NA? How surprising, didn't see that coming... <-- sarcasm NA lacks the player numbers, so they do everything to lure more players in and keep the smaller playerbase happy, while EU has a decent amount of players who are willing to spend moneys anyways, so no need to put effort into events or give rewards or discounts like on NA. #JustEUThings #wecan'thavenicethings #theEUshaft-aneverendingstory
  6. RL is a game breaking annoyence and should be removed. It can be fun if my team is somewhat competent, as i usually ask in chat to identify the RL user (if it isn't clear from the teams line up) and request a focus fire on him when not sailing a DD. Or when sailing a DD, i make fun of the player on the enemy team who uses it and try to lure them away from the objectives and into a merry chase around the map, which works mostly quite well. Too bad that my team isn't always on the bright side...
  7. Yeah, OPs first post made that quite clear and the following...anyways, my point was that it doesn't always mean that only bad players hide their stats. And i ask myself why folks have trouble getting that historical accuracy is fine and dandy, yet if it affects game balance in a...drumroll..."Arcade GAME", than it has to take a step back or gtfo. Than i read the Pi thread again and everything is clear.^^ I've seen the other thread, read it and forgot about it. ^^ Well, i assume that WG intended this game to be a team based MPOG, the issue is that not everyone plays as part of team for various reasons, like for instance the BBs that camp in the back, unable to find their b4lls, as not every BB has Hydro to look for them under water. In regards to Tirpitz and Bismarck: my most favorite ships next to a bunch of DDs and CLs, yet i hate the unreliable guns on them. I'd trade in some AA or secondary dakka for more reliable mainguns. While it is funny once that my guns miss a broadsiding Roon at 9km, it's not so funny anymore when it happens at 5.58km while said Roon sits still in the water because the player disconnected and i had to park my Bismarck next to it and let my secondaries do the shooting to kill that bloody bugger ( i got so annoyed at that point of the shots that missed the CA point blank, while others just bounced or overpenned ^^) And in the very next game i hit an angled Hipper at 19km and delete him follwowed by a Des Moines at 18km and remove most of his HP. Just a bit more consistency...a tiny bit more reliable guns.
  8. While i think that in most cases of "ship X is OP or Shima UP, fires OP, torps OP, CVs OP, haxxor this and haxxor that" the problem sits between the screen and the keyboard - and I'm certainly not holding my opinion back in chat or on the forums ( which gets me chatbans almost on a weekly basis), i do not think that "hidden stats = bad player" always applies - speaking generally here, not this specific case. @OP: when a - higher tier - RU DD catches a lone BB it's BBQ time and unless you can get support by allies or can disengage, you're eff'd.
  9. Cruisers are NOT supposed to counter BBs. This ship of yours would be bloody OP and in my opinion not what this game needs.

    +214% for first win of the day instead of +314%

    The $hit will hit the fan once someone mentions the relativity theory...'cause than we'd have a serious physics discussion on our hand and with the shown meth...math skills...oh Lord!
  11. Shino0nome is hard to, but she sure is worth it even tho her torp angles are rather un-IJN-ish.
  12. The only way to fix this Edited is to have qualification runs for each class before the ranked season starts. Than Wg can have two leagues, the normal ranked league with players who managed to qualify themself, and the Edited ...potato league where players can play ranked for fun.

    Rank 1 requirements

    You don't need any skill whatsoever to get to Rank 1 in this rather flawed game mode. All you have to do is play enough games, and that is why this mode sucks ball$.

    DISHONESTY and where will take us players and WG

    Not sure about chances for a SC, as i haven't had one in ages until last week where i got one and today another. The first one was a smoke upgrade and today i tried "TYL" and got a SC with 4 Papa Papa signals in it. Not sure which disappoints more.

    Change max ship classes in team compositions?

    "Fixing" the ships wouldn't do jack$hit either, as no matter of "fixing" certain ships would make me play other ships or ship classes and i assume this applies to quite a number of other players as well.
  16. Jethro_Grey

    and the Jury is in on the Grozovoi

    Pretty much this. They didn't want another omg-OP-russian-bias discussion going, so they nerfed it and they gonna buff it later cause it underperforms.

    :cap_rambo:

    DDs unplayable? It's the same myth like CVs are dead, considering in almost every match there are 4-5 DDs per side even before the introduction of the new RU DDs. I have no issues with Radar and Hydro, but that sissy RL perk is annoying as [edited]and needs to go - like the moron who put it into the game.

    Nope. I spawned on the trap map near the C cap in my DD. As usual, i pointed out that the B and C cap are the better options, since the A cap is too isolated and we wouldn't be able to support each other. So of course over half our team went A...with the usual "noob, A is better" $hit talk. After some more trashtalk from the window lickers on my team, i may or may not have said something along the lines of "only si$$ys go to re7ard traps like the A cap on this map...si$$ys like you". I may or may not have repeated that "si$$y" part...only a few times. It also may or may not have happened in all chat...for some reason. I also may or may not have said - in all-chat - something along the lines of "...si$$ys hide at A, 'cause si$$ys don't like being shot at ... unless it's a cum$hot...". Well, since the enemy team fucked up badly, we won and the window lickers of course think they were right going A and abandoning the rest of team. The next time, they may be on your team.^^ #reportfunctionOPplsnerf

    Never argue with braindead, re7arded, window licking si$$ys, otherwise you can get this achievement: The few si$$ys on my team seem to have dumped all their reports on me. ^^
  20. Alright than. Well, i actually rarely post on the WoT forums, mostly in threads regarding new tank offers in the Premium shop. ^^
  21. Met Hedgehog1963 (Udaloi) in a game on shatter, he was on my team. My chase of a Minotaur and a NoCar in my Zao near the A cap was rudely interrupted when i ate friendly torps aimed at the NoCar. In that moment i saw Hedgehog leaving the B cap so i falsely accused him, later it turned out he wasn't the one torping carelessly. Sorry again Hedgehog. A few games later i met PointyhairedJedi (Grozovoi) in a Div with Strangers123 (Black) on the enemy team. Friendly Banter ensued and i managed to get B in all the confusion and was heading for A in my Shima, when i spotted two FdGs in the A cap. I rushed and sank the first, while the second ate the last spread of torps, the last 1.5k took a team mate. Thx for...kill securing. Jedi and me engaged in a one on one after that, yet the enemy CV meddled and i wasn't able to dodge that one torp that ended the game for me. Immediatly after that game, i met tenacious_torps (Mogami) in my team on Hot Spot. He wanted to support me at C, but considering the ships the enemy had, i asked him to sail around and support through the gap. Which actually saved my Shimas a$$ as a Minotaur almost got me.

    Smoke Generator Modification 1 - worth it?

    Well yeah, i was talking about the module not the Perth.

    What a strange day... Had mostly defeats of the pointless kind, games that could have been easily won. Lost it twice today in chat and said very nasty things about team mates, some well deserved while others not so much...sigh. Unlocked the Z-23 and it feels like a downgrade form the Maas. It turns like a skyscaper and withe every game, i feel less and less motivated to grind that line. Sofar my previous statement about that line holds true: the fun ends after Tier II. On the plus side, i unlocked the Shinonome, which is a fun little torp flinger. Despite the rather un-IJN rear torp arcs - i managed to get 4 kills in my first game. It may take a while getting used to the arcs, but i think i'm gonna lotsa fun with that boat. edit: also, just got chatbanned because a few re7arded c0cksucking sissys didn't like me asking them to NOT go to the D cap on north. Needless to say, we lost.

    Smoke Generator Modification 1 - worth it?

    I have the Perth and i still don't think it's that useful. It may be more useful than the other rare downgrades, but as it stands, i doubt i'll equip it on any of my ships.
