Ferry_25

Ok, I want to give a round to my clan with santa boxes. Started well. But now I get his F-ing message? What the bloody Heck?! Are you seriously suggesting I am not able to spend money? Really. This is even beyond Enron, Leaman Brothers.... A freaking company who doesn't have it's "S" in order for costumers to spend?! I actually thought I've seen it all..... Edit: worst of it: now I'm looking like an idiot towards my clan....

Really like to get this off my heart. I so thoroughly enjoyed the CW. Being the "XO"of my clan, my good friend started the clan more or less as serious joke. "Let's see how far we come, Ferry." If nothing, let's collect oil and benefit as a group. Now, we're "leading" a wonderful group of people who are devoted to improve the whole team. Heck: we have all the buildings, except HQ2!! Now the CW itself. I admit I'm a bit in a motivation crisis for wows right now. No, not any blame or shame on WG. It's me. Haven't played as much lately and had a bit of a low profile on the Forum as well. But when CW was up, I made sure to log in should my team need me. We managed to shrug the "Random battle Ego mode" off and operated as a team when the CW progressed. We had so much awesome nailbiters, where the balance either dropped to us or our enemies for 20 minutes, friends for life. @Bakx83 and me didn't expect to get very far in the ranking. Giving our very best shot of course: rather go down in dignity than not trying at all. With humble pride I can say we made it to Storm 1... Even had a shot to move to Typhoon but we didn't make it. Gave our very best of course but that's where out limit was. For now. I see the criticism to WG on the Forum. And I agree to some of it. But the CW was spot on for me. Yes, there's still a lot of WIP. And though I am not a CV fan, the CV has a place in this game. I understand the "start low and go slow" POV from WG and I'm sure the CV will get a place in CW in the future. For now: like my title is saying: thanks guys. I've had a blast playing the clanwars. Really looking forward to the next session! Hell of a job.

That Zeppelin. Would that happen to be the Hindenburg?

Parallel on topic: do they yield oil? And does anyone know when the box offers will end? A forummate who is on a voyage for a long time asked me to buy a few for him. I need to know when the end date will be.

This piece of ship is the first one I am seriously considering selling as a premium. Yes it's me, not the ship. For me it's the biggest disappointment in wows ever. I know I can't win every match but wtf. I can't snipe at distance, because the shells will miss. By definition. Yet I can't get close because I won't survive the trip. Any boat with guns looking funny at me will triple citadel me regardless what angle and ammo type. And that's in the best case scenario. I'm so sick and tired and done by being the dev strike donor I'm afraid I won't ever take this piece of garbage out ever again. My Duca d'Aosta is also collecting dust. My Italian friends: I've tried. I've tried real hard. But this is the end of the line regardless. I'd rather go grind the RN BS cruiser lines before ever touching your ships ever again. Even if a Silver line would ever appear. WTF would it matter? Yes: very quick and agile ships. But getting a guaranteed citadel when someone is aiming roughly in the 8 squares around mine? While missing every shot fired? Sorry and thanks but no thanks. I'll keep enjoying your wonderful culture, food, design and feminine beauty. But no more Italian ships for me. Done with getting oneshot or getting the "cholera attack sound by splashes 5 km away from me. Either I'm selling the ships to get port slots or they will rot away forever next to my Yamato and Lepramore. I'm here to have a good time. No, not winning all the time. But neither to get guaranteed humiliated every game. tl:dr. Arriverdercy beautiful ships. I keep loving Italy et al to death. Only exception are the ships in wows.

Was in the same team as @Lord_WC in an awesome match! Nice aggesive play from both sides. We won but they didn't give it for free,

The map itself I very much like. I love the looks of it and I don't mind open maps. Also like Ocean very much for that matter. It's only epicenter on this map I despise. No problem with the epicenter game mode. It's just the combination on Tears.

Ah sorry. But @MrFingers He is from the smart part of the Dutch talking community. His post was to cryptic for me. So I figured I'd post a cut copy paste thread. But I see out Belgium friend has beat us. Again..... And yes, Mr Fingers: I've just been released from the nut house and thus driving around with a yellow license plate.

So sorry if this has already been posted. Just wanted to err on the safe side. WOWS15A7R73ELL8 gives you 1 free container. I'd say it's worth the redeem.

Not my greatest achievement. Ours. Storm 1 baby. To say my ego is gloating with all the pride possible would be the understatement of the year! And while you're at it: look at the buildings we all have gathered in our wonderful clan!!!

tl:dr Conway. Any way of giving a summary?

Wow! I'm getting really curious OP! I won it yesterday. Grinded the mission "digustingly" Used coops for the destroy and win missions. Which was actually surprisingly fun to do. For the XP I just took my regular grind ships from the lines in randoms and the damage I mostly harvested with Conqueror.

What?! How did you lose 2.5 billion credits that quick??

I think you're just whining. You have stats I can only dream of. So your WR dropped .15% lately. You're still performing unicum WR. You want to win every single game? Well this might come as shock your you: you can't.

I'm playing DD's heavily torpedo oriented so for me the TRB is a vital part. Together with the relevant captainskill. I like the torps to be reloaded as fast as possible.

Smurf, you don't have to hide your own name when showing your stats.

OK I'll try my luck as well. Anyways thanks for the initiative. 1 should it come on sale: Kidd. Otherwise Alabama 2 Krasny 3 Skip me and draw another please. 4 = 2 5-8 =3

Really I don't get the point of bringing this up OP. I'm not condoning anything said persons have done or told to you. It's a blunt fact those rats are on the internet as well. Now the only "religion" I'm using is praying to all higher forces that my salvo will hit well and theirs will miss. It's a video game. And the clans are part of it. If someone in my clan isn't able to play or simply don't want to play CW. It's fine, we'll remove members who don't contribute anything. And i have no idea what believes my fellow members might or might not have. Nor do I care. If your clan threw you out for this reason I think you didn't have anything to find there in the first place. Also we sometimes use very "powerful expressions" (a.k.a. swearing when one is screwing up something) in TS and sometimes ingame chat. Give a report in minor offenses or send a ticket in major ones. Keep it there, grow a pair and move on.

Watched the replay till you were taken down. Now I know I'm talking from a comfortable POV here in retrospect. I admit you had about the most brutal line up for a Bismarck there, on the worst possible map given that line up in BM. Regarding feedback. First thing I noticed is you were isolating yourself the whole time. You'd had better gone off with the south group in the opening. The CV could have punished you before you even got to the north side. Second you gave full broadside to their spawn on your way up there. Third when you did catch up with the north group, thus giving you somewhat more AA defense from the cruisers, you kept rushing and headed straight back to your cap: the cruisers were on the DD. Fourth: I get it you shoot HE at DD's. I'd probably had loaded HE in the beginning myself, given the high numbers of DD's. But you kept at it when firing at the cruiser and the Lion (? not sure iirc), who both laid fuul broadside to you. Fifth: you didn't launch your fighter when the DD was under bomber threat. Six: you DCP-ed 1 fire on your way out of the north, while there was a clear DD threat present. Also you had to expect a torp drop because you were isolated and that flood bite you in the rear at the end. Please OP: I'm not judging you. We all make mistakes (sure as hell I do). I think I understand your intention: the north group didn't have BB support without you, but they chose to go on a yolo solo rush. They might have even gotten away with it, because the red presence wasn't that heavy in the north. And I'm thinking you didn't want to be "tha BBaby, sniping in the back, being useless." Well, rushing in full speed, isolating yourself, especially with a heavy CV and DD threat, doesn't help you or your team either. Tanking in a BB =/= rushing in! And avoiding damage =/= hiding like a coward. Also, from what I saw your whole team messed up: they got way too far away from your cap. My advice: given this map and line up: stick with your closest allies more, try not to get isolated. Keep a somewhat lower profile in the opening phase. Chose your ammo more wisely. Ease on the throttle every now and then. The trick of BB's is getting your heavy guns in the most optimal possible situations. There are even matches in which I'm lying dead in the water in a BB when I have good firing solution with the least possible amount of risk. It's your job to hit them hard and taking the blows when necessary. Let the retina detaching dodge acrobatics to the DD's. that's what they are build for. Not you. Help your allies more: use that plane to try to protect your DD. Who knows? Maybe next time he'll lay a nice smoke screen for you to snipe in or buying you time to redo your paintwork after taking hits.

@Historynerd Hell I did take the accuracy. I'm so sorry bro (sis?). It's me, not the ships but somehow I can't make the Italian line to function. It has got nothing to do with the fact I'm ravenously in love with your country, it's beauty, wonderful food and above all: you're stunning women. I absolutely adore the beauty of the Italian ship line. And coming from the apex naval country of the world I hope that's saying something. I don't know what's wrong with me but in the GC I simply can't hit anything, at any range at any angle. Duca D'Aosta was a grave dissapointment for me. But I didn't give up and took GC with the max bundle. I'm afraid this is the end of the line for me regarding Italian beauties in wows. Again: with all respect: it's not the ships, it's me. I absolutely fail in this line. I don't feel the guns: they just are extremely reliable in missing, bouncing or overpenning in my case.

You'll only get pink if you inflict 10k or more damage out of a million. So the accidental drive by's aren't punished immediately. And AFAIK the team damage "counter" is "wearing off over time." So if you accidentally give 9k damage now, you won't get pink if you do 1000 dmg 3 months later f.e.

That's what our clan is feverish collecting oil for!

I'm afraid I don't get this Ara. I bought the "dragon" bundle several eons ago and my Lo Yang captain is IIRC (not loged in now) in the 16 or 17 points range. I'll kick his @ss on the line first, use my free captain XP to throw him to 19 asap. Like I do to all my grinding lines. In order to harvest more free capt XP....

Thanks people. Still GC is the premium boat I'm seriously considering selling for silver. Tried a few battles and maybe it's the fact I've chosen the "admiral" version for the XP reward that's getting me into 6 DD's vs 5 with the CFV disadvantage in both cases. This POS is even yearning me back to Lepramore.... I can't hit anything in this ship: cruisers full BS on close range??? I'll straddle them fully in 99% of the cases. What is the secret of this piece of garbage? Please. I'd love to know. I've bought it after Losa D'aosta. With the solely intention to promote other lines this game. And it's has disappointed me beyond reason. I saw your argument about Nicolai... Heck: I'd happily face Losio Ceasarea in my Nic. As far as I'm concerned: let me be Ambiorix for Roma in Nicolai any time. No way in he** I'll spend any dime for purchasing that boat.

OK, you've hidden your stats. Know that's a real sign of retardness on the Forum, especially if you want to criticize something. As long as you're hiding your stats I'd sincerely advice to cry in your corner below your blanket and don't bother anyone here. Disregarding this. I am seriously wondering how a B tester still hasn't figured out losing steaks are part of the deal? FFS: we all have to face them. If you can't take this, go take a diaper with your blanket while crying....
