As a DD main I claim the game is unplayable right now
Jethro_Grey replied to Palachinka's topic in General Discussion
This. I am in fact considering, to start looking next week for people interested in playing a dedicated radar-cruiser killing division for a while. Two BBs and a CV would be nice for this task, although something with dpm to replace one of the BBs could work too. We’ll see. -
THE most incredible ROFLSTOMP
Jethro_Grey replied to SolanumTuberosumRex's topic in General Discussion
Zero casualty games are slowly increasing in number, sadly. -
Take any captain with 10 points, start the game, park your ship bow-in to the first island that is visually appealing to you and shoot the red ones. AP at any target at any range unless it’s perfectly bow-in. Rinse and repeat until you have a 19 point captain. Go for tank build is my suggestion, since it’s a russian CA, the difference in play style between random and CB is negligible.

THE most incredible ROFLSTOMP
Jethro_Grey replied to SolanumTuberosumRex's topic in General Discussion
I hate to be the one who’s gonna break it to you, but that is not the worst game/ roflstomp ever. It’s also quite common, so get used to it. I was thinking earlier today, that if i’d get only ONE Dubloon for every I have on my team, or meet on the enemy team, i’d be able to buy all the permanent camos and still would be swimming in Dubloons. -
Using the new mission page takes more time
Jethro_Grey replied to rmbg's topic in General Discussion
It takes ages to load, way longer than the old one. It‘s an atrocious piece of crap visually, hideous to look at and coded and designed by someone who knows design and coding only from hearsay. Looking for for the information I need, takes longer than before. No idea why WG felt the need to change the one part of the game that was somewhat ok. There are plenty of things that need fixing in this game, like CVs, brokenly strong russian biased fantasy ships, rebalancing of certain other non-russian ships, reducing/ rebalancing the number of radar ships per side, subs, aso. Mission screen shouldn’t have been on the priority list. At least, WG should have given the task of designing the mission screen and premium store to someone who has an actual clue on how to do it in a visually appealing way. Not to someone whose only proficiency is looking at spreadsheets and coding ‘hello world’ all day since everything else is above his/her/ their skill level. At least WGs art department (the ones who create the ships) are still on and save WGs bacon on a regular basis. Question is, how long will it take for them to be replaced by the no-skill-no-sense guys who created this abomination of a mission screen/premium store. -
Then it's not free. Without the grind towards and the unlocking of Moskva, he wouldn't have got it, so it's not free. He put work into it.

Either a CC, VIP, one of those players that for some reason have access to these ships. Like the WGP2W clan guy, who is no CC and yet still has access to the Slava. No chance in hell these ships are already available.

For a moment, i was hoping - based on a comment by MrConway on their stream - that there might be a chance to get one of the two WH40K ships in those crates...hahahahaha yeah, i was that gullible for a moment. Anyways, there is no chance whatsoever, getting anything else out of these pre-sale crates then camos and disappointment. At least there were two nice flags in the bundle, which why i bought it in the first place. Now, i guess by end of next week we'll have the chance to buy the two Amagi clones in an overprized "not-gonna-buy-that" bundle, as the twins announced yesterday, that next week friday will be a special Warhammer 40K stream.

The new look of the prem store sucks. This is horribly atrocious design, pls don't do that and revert to the old one. No idea what the ideas behind this new design are, but convincing people to spend money there sure wasn't one of them. I get the whole "let's revamp our ingame UI to make it less cluttered and using - what is probably the console biggest weakness - and making it a PC feature , let's turn it into a console game nightmare" but there was no need to change the premium store. @Moderators: Until now, this topic seem to be non-constructive, but you're wrong! Read below, constructiveness a-plenty: If you need help with making designs for your premium store and are too cheap to hire people like me who actually worked in the industry...or others who have a basic understanding of these things, i will gladly take a break from your grindfest of the month and point you to FREE tutorials on how to make your designs/ layout more appealing. No need to thank me Wargaming, you're welcome!

The best Tier V Russian premium cruiser
Jethro_Grey replied to Jvd2000's topic in General Discussion
Krasny Krim can be OP for her tier, however, you need a 19 point captain with the right build and a patient capatin at the helm. Otherwise you're just food for anything else you meet. With such a setup, she's most likely the strongest TV cruiser, however, this is exactly the reason why i consider Murmansk and Mikoyan to be the overall better ships as all you need is a 10 point commander. -
The best Tier V Russian premium cruiser
Jethro_Grey replied to Jvd2000's topic in General Discussion
I like the Mikoyan, because spamming heavy AP at range is perfect balans(!) at TV. Citadelling angled cruisers at 14km? No problem comrade! Taking 10k chunks out of all non-soviet BBs? No problem comrade, is balans! Overall, i like the Murmansk more, because Dakka, range, agility, and it being the second (after the Gremy) OP soviet bias ship ingame and the first premium i bought. -
Personally, I prefer Bayard as it is more consistent in most situations. Mainz has only the AP dpm going for it, and that works mostly against broadside targets. Bayard works in any situation. Both are huge citadels waiting to get wrecked if your not careful.

We must do something now...UNACCEPTABLE
Jethro_Grey replied to FullSpeedAhead_fighter's topic in General Discussion
You can use the Printscreen key to make screen shots. There are tutorials on YT on how to use MS Paint, you might wanna check them out. In regards to not registered damage: might have been desync or just the game throwing a hissy fit. -
You could go for any non-CV class. No need to add toxicity to the game by playing that class.

What Were Your Greatest Gaming Achievements Today ?
Jethro_Grey replied to Hanszeehock's topic in General Discussion
When your team is so unbelieveable at the game and life itself and hide with 7(!) ships all game at F7 on the Northern Lights map. -
Seems the collab is on it's way... Looks kinda cool-ish, i wonder what ships those are (Amagis?) and how many coind we have to fork out for them...

Wait what?

What Were Your Greatest Gaming Achievements Today ?
Jethro_Grey replied to Hanszeehock's topic in General Discussion
My first random game in the Henri IV in almost two years. Damage is bad, but i sank a Smolensk, which is as satisfying as sinking a CV. Also, the Smolensk player, who was kindly sailing in a straight line, complimented me in port chat after the game! Thx for that! Yep, that's me, making friends even on the enemy team. -
Penalty for Ships dying in the first 2-3 minutes
Jethro_Grey replied to _Ghostship_'s topic in General Discussion
Agreed. But we also need punishment for the BBs who camp in the back all game and do not support caps, or cruisers who do not support their DDs and of course CVs for being CVs. My personal favorite is to electrocute these players with 750k Volt and 15k ampere. I am sure, that this will teach them and they never do it again. Double that for CV players, nobody likes those anyways. -
Welcome to WoWS, where the DEVs play you while you play the game. And you you can bet your ***, they have more fun then you ever will.

Let’s see... ship nerfed into the ground - check you have to pay no matter what - check to get the steel you need to pay 3x the price of a T8 - check let me do the calculations... ok. I will spend at least 20 minutes giving all the available middle fingers to this event, and spend my time playing AC Odyssey. My my money will go to other games, I.e. I pre-ordered the super-hyper-Mega-ultra-overpriced-with pointless crap-filled Edition of AC -Valhalla, which I consider to be cheaper since it’ll offer at least 60-80 hours of fun, unlike Odin in WoWS which comes for the same price but offers no fun whatsoever. Oh look, i found another middle finger, must have fallen off the table when I did my pro AC:Valhalla and con WoWS:Odin list. And this is coming from a collector guy that has all the premiums (except Bajie, Wukong, Montpellier and Yukikaze).

PSA: If you own "Moskva" and/or "Kirov" in your port - don't forget to sell them before WoWs v0.9.5 update in order to get Credits back (at least something)!
Jethro_Grey replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
Eh, ~8million credits are like 6 decent games, so not worth selling those ships (for me) as i'm swimming in credits. What irks me is the fact the whole perma camo thing. -
Is there a list of words that are forbidden in chat?
Jethro_Grey replied to callumwaw's topic in General Discussion
Since last year Juli, I am working on a “don’t say that list”, and very successful indeed considering in this time, I had like 4-6 days were I wasn’t chat banned (didn’t play on these days). I’m still not done yet, but I’ve reached a point were I can say with confidence, that i’m almost there. You can pre-order “Jethro’s complete compendium of swear words and insults that get you guaranteed chat banned” for only 99,99€. Alternatively, you can pre-order the deluxe edition for a measly 179,99€, which guarantees regular FREE updates (intervals may vary depending on the duration of the chat ban). Forumites get a 10% discount ( 15% if they never played CVs)! Since i’m doing this for the community, WG should reward me with CC status! #IDidItForScienceAndProfit -
Their finest hour - Customer Support
Jethro_Grey replied to Johnny_Moneto's topic in General Discussion
Wait, :Pohl: is under Investigation?? Crap! I raised a support ticket I while back in the hopes WG would allow him to join my clan, as he seemed to be such a capable bot. But professional team killers are out. -
The correct pronunciation is actually: “Fantasy ship that never existed except on a napkin“. The correct pronunciation is important!
