  1. WGs horse $hit marketing fluff. I play a crap ton of DDs, and the highest amount of flooding I got was 30k-ish, and that on a afk BB. I needed 2 torp Volleys to achieve that. In regards to OPs proposal: 1. He got shat upon DDs, once per game when you get wrecked and sunk by a CV, cause there is no counterplay reward: 5000 XP on a CV you’re grinding 2. At least he tried DDs, once per game when you shoot down 5 planes before you get shat upon and sunk by a CV while trying to cap rewards: see above 3. Better play CVs DDs, only once get shat upon and sunk by a CV 100 times reward: you get two TVIII CVs fully researched and 5 detonation flags!

    slava russian ship inc???

    What video? Link?
  3. Yeah, that was a special game. At least you got something out of it, i couldn't stand watching this $hit show. Btw, couldn't say hello, due to WG forcing a three week "social chat distancing" thingy upon me. (and i am glad they did, cause with all the in the games, i would probably be perma banned after three lines of making my displeasuere known).

    What Were Your Greatest Gaming Achievements Today ?

    Finished the 3rd Twitch mission series, despite only having $hit players on my team. Only need one more heroic achievement to get the "Your Team mates" (year of the Pig) flag. Had this game in my Massa, and i was yelling at the screen when the on my team stared yoloing like idiots. Received an offer for webspace, a website and maybe even a store. No idea what to do with the store yet, but the website might be of interrest to me, as i'm contemplating to create a "Hall of Shame" kinda thing for WoWS. Basically all the players i have to endure in WoWS. With a search function and a nice mini game where you can fling crap at the player and score points for each metric ton. But then again, this means, i would have work for a life time (without pay) and would have to have at least half a dozen people who work full time just to keep the site updated. Eh.

    Graf Spee For OPs. A Sound Investment?

    I used her only in Aegis, and she can be a beast there. Her heavy, decently fast reloading guns devastate the cruisers in this op and can hurt the BBs. But i prefer Pensacola, Nürnberg and Leander for this OP (DPM/ Heavy US AP). I don’t play the other TVI ops that often or at all, so I can’t say how Graf Spee would perform there.

    Smolensk

    Do you have proof for that? Pls stop posting nonsense, it makes you look like a person with the IQ of a pot plant.
  7. Jethro_Grey

    Smolensk

    Because russian. They simply need to compensate for the lack of a real WWII navy, ships that don’t set themselves on fire and kill their own crews (like the russian CV did a few months back) or lack of ...other things. Besides, it gives players the feeling of power playing it. Ugh, here we go again. The fact that 90% of players can’t play this (or any other ) ship, does not mean it’s not OP.

    Why Does The IZMAIL Get Shafted?

    Russian stronk fantasy ship doesn't need no stinking plane. It's not a sniper.

    Unlocked Småland today and completed the missions for it. I am now 80 tokens away from the TVII DD and the three crowns camos for the TX DDs. Managed to get the missing 180k FXP by playing CV. Oh boy, what a Walk in the park. Made a lot of new friends (enemy DDs), whom I focused until sunk for extra fun, saltiness and xp. Should be able to unlock Lütjens tomorrow, and then collect coal for Thunderer.

    Good bye, it's been fun.

    Bye mate, you will be missed! It's sad to see familiar people go, but i hope you'll not stray too far, and show yourself now and then! Stay safe, stay healthy and good luck with whatever game will grab your interest next!

    Finally unlocked the Legendary Module for Moskva, and now i never have to play *that* ship ever again! Met a couple of dozen of people who are crap at the game (99.9% on my team) and blacklisted them. This is most likely a single most important feature the game has, it's basically like having a sign that says 'Attention: on your team! Caution is advised'. Had the luck of having 6(!) people on my team today, i previously blacklisted for being the creme de la crap. Didn't had a good feeling as i saw all of them on *my* team, and to nobodys surprise, we lost after only 6 mins (this game might end up as a YT commentary, as it rarely happens that i do 60k damage as bottom tier and still have twice as much XP as the second guy). Good games ended after only a couple of minutes, because some poor sod on the enemy team won the $hit team lottery (instead of me) and so even the wins (with a very few exceptions) where crappier then the defeats. Stopped playing surface ships and started playing CVs, just to ruin someones day. Apparantly, my TK threshold is so low, it takes only two torps on a friendly BB (which the enemy CV missed somehow) to turn pink again. How strange... Also, while playing CVs, i lost a crap ton of Karma, and am now at a grand total of 0! So, the DDs and the Smolensk i wrecked didn't like it, which makes me really happy! Then again, while playing CV, i met the most re7arded team ever. They refused to cap, they refused to shoot DDs in the cap (spotted by me)! The enemy team won on points, with only three of these morons sunk after 7 minutes.

    Rank Changes

    Basically, he wants to play ranked all year and farm rewards and steel. I think WG mentioned that they want to do that, right after they remove CVs, balance Smolensk, RU BBs and make german ships less $hit.
  15. Jethro_Grey

    signals and camos...

    I have 10361 camos of all kinds, and 20867 Signals, of which 2915 are Dragon Signals. Not included are Signals and camos already assigned to many of my 351 ships. Both Signals and camos (especially the Dragon/ special camos) are used very wisely and only on ships i know i can perform in any situation.

    Losing every single game i played in the last three days (with exception of ranked where i won almost every game). The quality of teams is beyond wreched, these people are in dire need of a brain or two. Holy crap, and i can't even insult these camping braindead spineless $hiteating tossers.

    EU server is $hitting the bed

    Just dropped out of a Ranked game ( we were winning!!! ), logging back in dropped me back into port, my ship too, despite the game still running (unless eversyone was dropped). Now, i'm in port but can't get into games, and today is the last day of $hitshow...i mean Ranked. Any info on that @MrConway@Crysantos? Feed the Server Hamsters now and then WG. P.S. Of course, compensation is required. I take the Jolly Roger, no further compensation needed. P.P.S. I bought recently some Dubloons, so there should be enough money to feed the Hamsters (unless @Lordofdroid spend every cent on toiletpaper...^^)

    EU server is $hitting the bed

    Oh, someone (you) seems upset about my comment about a Smolensk player whining about radar? Well, to answer your question: no. A DM/Salem is a much bigger threat, so if I wanted a light on my BB, I’d ask one of those players.
  20. This is actually epic! Gonna post the link to this thread on all discord servers, Reddit, Twitter and make a petition to feature it on the official portal. A Smolensk player is complaining about radars, specifically russian ones, Stalingrad in particular, and complains about them having a negative impact on the game! A SMOLENSK player!! This is priceless!

    EU server is $hitting the bed

    This. So much this! And some more of this!!! C’mon WG dudes, pls give us another day! I was on my way to rank 3, maybe even two. Pls @MrConway?
  22. Dear WG. I hope this doesn’t fall on deaf ears. Pls remove Smolensk from Ranked. Thank you.

    Why I keep getting the bad teams

    Because you are part of the problem. You can blame everything and everyone else and stay a part of the problem, or you can accept that YOU are new, bad and start improving so you can become part of the solution. Positioning in a BB hasn’t changed in the last years, so in that regard, the guides are still valid. iChasegaming on YT has a beginners guide/ series on his channel. No. You did not. In order to pull your weight, you should do at least an amount of damage that is equal or greater then your BBs HP pool. The only flags that would help you in your BB are are fire reduction, flooding reduction and heal buff. Everything else is not important to perform. That is something you’ll learn with time. Stop playing CVs. Focus on surface ships. If DDs give you head aches, play DDs to learn how they play, what they need to do to perform well. In the process, you’ll learn how to counter them. Then you’re either in the wrong position, hopelessly over extended or maybe st of your team is dead and you’re the last one, because you were out of position during the entire game and had no impact. Seriously dude, watch iChase’ vids, watch flamu on YT. Both guys have tons of vids on his to play BBs, how to position. And while some are old, the positioning part is still valid.

    Can we cloak now a days ???

    This gets the Seal of approval from me! 8/10 Almost as good as a Trump speach, lacks a bit of the ‘certain something’. Otherwise pretty good and with a bit more practice, I can see you becoming very successful in politics, or even speaker of WGs balans department, trying to sell the CV rework as success! Keep at it! In case you weren’t trolling: 1. You’re in zoom view, DD smokes up 2. You’re sailing towards him, he sails away from you and since he’s firing outside his spotting range, your sailing into his shells 3. He’ shooting from behind obstacles or smoke, read up on spotting mechanics

    Server down??

    Well, PTS is still up, lets wreck ships there then ^^
