    Secret Mission bugged

    Someone should pick the easy one and see if WG mixed them up...

    C. Colombo TX Italian BB paper design from where??

    You just described the construction process of every russian post WWI era BB ever laid down...so all two or three of them.

    Daily Shipments still flooding in?

    I got the crappy one on my main account, which expired ages ago, and none on my alt-account, same on my NA account. Luckily, certsin other F2P games don't pull that stupid crap and p*ss off half their playerbase in the process. The sad part is, that the majority of WGs playerbase is unaware, because reading patch notes is hard and requires cognitive abilities that are typically used to throw moms credit card at the screen.

    C. Colombo TX Italian BB paper design from where??

    Yeah, russia did cooperate on several occasions with the Italian navy, Gnevny/Gremy class DDs for instance, so it's no really a surprise. Even tho I'm not really a BB main i was looking forward to the Italian BB line (gotta have them all...), but WG brute forcing dumb gimmicks onto the line snd butchering them in rhe process makes me wish, they never release them. SAP on a BB is dumb enough, but exhaust smokes as well? And in turn the butcher sigma, concealment and reload. Btw, recent devblog says, tier 6 and 7 lose their exhaust smoke, while the upper tiers get their accuracy and concealment nerfed. And all that, for a crappy gimmick nobody asked for.

    German CVs announced!

    Oh yeah, they are coming. just announced on the official stream. Apparantly not enough sky fappers in the game, it needs more 'balans'. TVIII upwards get AP rockets. Like Graf Zeppelin, planes are fast, but very low HP. Stukkas are a possibility, not decided yet. TIV "Rhein", TVI "Weser", TVIII "August Parseval", TX "Manfred Richthofen". Also announced, a TIX german DD, with 150mm guns, basically the Z-23 one tier higher. Ugh. #ThisGameIsGoingDownTheShitter

    C. Colombo TX Italian BB paper design from where??

    Basically all of WGs designs, especially the ru BBs, can be found in sikrit documents which are stored in the Federal Archives Project (abbr. F.A.P.), in the Naval Arms Projects for Kombat InventioNs (abbr. N.A.P.K.I.N.) section. Did you know that 1979, sikrit documents were found, that the Star Wars death star was in reality invented by Russian scientists in 1907, as part of the FU/f0rR34ls project? But never was build because reasons? I didn't...

    New Prime Gaming Loot

    A 3 day premium rental... Meanwhile, WoT offers XP and credit boosters, special commanders with 3 skill points, boosters for XP and credits or 5x XP missions, to be activated at your leisure. AND on top, one or two rental tanks. But then, it's not really a surprise, WoWS has become very penny-pinching in the last two years.

    German Destroyer Z1945

    Pay to win? How would that be pay to win since you can't pay to get TX ships? And since when are german ships in the p2w category regardless of tier? EDIT: yes, i want ALL ships.

    WoT vs WoWs grind

    In my experience, WoT is far more grindy than WoWS. Especially sonce most of the stock tanks are horrible. And while you could focus on gun upgrades *which in most cases lead to the next tank,* you won't be able to mount them because you need the turret, which requires several thousand xp itself...which you can't mount because you need the tracks first to be able to mount it. The grind over there is, what the grind here should be. Credits will be an issue all the way, so getting a good premium tank is almost mandatory. XP and credit boosters can be obtained as rewards for missions, or sometimes in the premium store, and can be a massive help grinding through one specific tsnk or module or simply to get credits. Now, unlike WoWS, WoT require you to fire premium ammo on occasion, because you either play a heavy and you can't pen the enemy heavy frontally, or you hsve the stock gun which can't pen anything, or you've been uptiered have the stock gun... So yeah, 1/5 of your ammo loadout should be premium ammo. Don't fling it at everything, as it will drain your credits fast. And unlike WoWS, were rhe economy is very forgiving WoT is not, as you can actually LOSE money in certsin premium tanks even with boosters active if all you do is fling premium ammo. Premium consumables are also a good way to lise credits in standard tanks, as the price per pop is 20k, which means 60k loss per game guaranteed, without the price for battle damage and ammo. Depending on your performance and how many boosters you aquire, it may or may not be a good idea to throw your credit card at the screen...not for Gold but for credits. I've unlocked my 3rd or 4th tier X tank, and i simply can't afford to buy them (have the LT 100 tho), as i'm grinding so many lines at once. One thing to add, Frontlines - a temporary game mode - was a vwry good way to grind credits, made almost 10 million credits profit in one week with boosters. Edit: the Top of the tree events, are also a very good way to grind one specific line, as you get missions which give XP rewards (x5) for each tank of the line and can buy tott boosters in rhe store for few bucks.

    Atlanta: best setup?

    With the upcoming commander skill rework, chances are that AFT will get removed (if it stays as it currently is), and rhis ship completely murdered. So you might wanna ignore that skill and go for concealment and IFHE, and then specc Demo expert. It might help getting accustomed to the to-be shafted Atlanta right now. But then, a ship her size with 11km range might not be worth playing after the rework. Especially since you see tier 9 quite often. Atm, IFHE is not mandatory, as you can compensate by setting tons of fires. Concealment and range are however, also demo expert. AR, preventive maintenance, last stand should also be fairly standard.

    Why can't I disable Direct Messages?

    Good job, lets remove indicators, for how bad someone performed. Sure will improve bad players gameplay. Yeah, exactly. The issue is more often than not, that even asking for support in battle chat, is already considered "toxic" behaviour by snowflakes in general and bad players in particular. Too bad there is no means to punish these ******.

    would single type matches be a benefit?

    A match with 12 BBs per side...in 2020... How much fun would that be...one team camping on the 2 line, the other on the 8 line flinging long range shots at each other...assuming someone gets close enough to spot the enemy team...oh wait

    Why WoWS is not fun anymore

    Well, i found my fun again...in MWO, SW Squadrons and Subnautica.
  14. Jethro_Grey

    Why not make Cruiser Secondaries higher Ranged :)

    Sure, why not crapping some more on spotted DDs? But then, make it - as suggested above - a module rhat goes into the concealment module slot. It removes concealment and gives the CA BB secondary range and dispersion, and negates all dispersion buffs other modules might give. Yeah, this could work.

    What Were Your Greatest Gaming Achievements Today ?

    The quality of the player base... ...at least, they were on the enemy team for a change.
  16. I rarely play CVs, especially not in randoms but i wanted to complete the last 3 Naval Battle missions for 30k damage each, so i kinda had to. During my Midway game, i had my screen all turned blurry, as if someone cranked up the motion dial blur to 11 and then some more. At first, i thought it's maybe because of some graphics issue with my GFX, my second thought was maybe because of the storm. Checked the former after the game, and it's fine, while this motion blur thingy actually started around the H6 area, so basically outside of the storm. It caught me by surprise, so it was desorientating until i adjusted. Glitch? Feature? I know that in regards to CVs, those two are basically the same... Still, if the former, how often does it occur? if the latter, how do i tone it down a bit, to be less annoying?

    Submarines as soon as possible. Vote here to ask for them

    So, OP created a poll 25mins ago to speed up introduction of subs...and nobody has created a poll to perma ban OP yet?

    Funky visuals while playing CV

    Ah, thx! Another feature nobody asked for. Gonna check out the mod, as in its current implementation, this feature is a tad bit too strong.

    Laggy Port

    Since a while, i have lag in my port, when moving the mouse, or clicking on any button. It was never annoying enough to report it, however, since a couple of days it's almost impossible to do anything in port, with the freezes, stuttering and lag, where the screen freezes for a couple of seconds. When the patch today hit, i thought it would be gone, however, nothing changed. I'd like to add, that i do NOT have these issues on my NA account, or my EU alt-account. It seems to affect only my main account. Any idea what it causes @Crysantos @MrConway ? Pls halp! Edit: The lad, freezes and stuttering occurs even when I'm not clicking on anything. It's very noticeable because the water, scenery (ships, planes) freeze and a couple seconds later move again. Any mouse input takes several seconds until response. As mentioned before, only on my main account.

    Laggy Port

    FYI: You were right, the black list caused the lag and stuttering, thx for the heads up. Support was able to clear the BL and after a restart, the game runs smooth as ever. Now, time to fill it again i guess...

    Poll: Which Ship did you get from KotS Collection?

    Congrats! Just make sure you stick to the speed limit, seeing how a terrible speed demon she is. You don't want to get all dizzy while playing... Seriously tho, it's a relaxing ship to play, just press W 4 times, go make lunch, laundry, binge watch all seasons of Game of Thrones, go on a vacation or grab your old calculator and study physics and develop the warp drive, and by the time your back, you should be in shooting range of the nearest cap. If i didn't had that ship already, I'd be envious right now...
  22. IIRC, @Crysantos said something along the lines of, that you'll be able to get more crates next KotS.

    Poll: Which Ship did you get from KotS Collection?

    She's ok as cap contester. Just rush to the cap and blap the DD. Remember, speed is your friend... Yes, i have all TVII ships.

    Poll: Which Ship did you get from KotS Collection?
