ooh...does this mean if there is an enemy ship next to the ice berg and you shoot the ice berg it collapses on said enemy and..... Death by ice berg?! Seriously...interactive ice burgs would be a nice touch...

Yeah I remember when the smoke mechanics changed some time ago but I assumed that you could no longer spot in smoke period unless someone is spotting for you. Just because someone fires there guns you can suddenly spot them in smoke is a bit of a dum mechanic IMO.

Fair Point. That I did not know. So if the gun bloom is still active you can spot in smoke?

IMO this is the real problem here, its not you...nothing should be alive after 5 torp hits in this game unless its damage saturation? If he was destroyed at that point we wouldn't even be having this conversation. DD gameplay is tough as it is in this metta ATM, but hey, indestructible BB'S is apparently the way forward for WG?

Aplied this fix last week when @MrConway kindly delivered it to us in the previous fps thread. Happily this seems have solved the fps issue for me....however the SOUND still suffers from distortion and slows down when under heavy graphical load as it did before the fix....wich is weird? Is anyone else still suffering from sound issues after this fix has been Aplied?

As @DFens_666 said, Op Can you do a poll so we can perhaps see a clear show of hands . Cheers.

WTF? One good cv player can turn the tide of a battle quite sufficiently... So Hell no! 2 CV games DD gameplay is utterly pointless atm, perma spotted and focused to oblivion in most games + game cant cope graphically when it gets really hectic with 2 cv's ... 1 cv per game is quite sufficient IMO for balance.....

2 cv games are ruining most if any chance for DD's to have an impact on the game. Being perma spotted and continuously focused is no fun for anyone. 4 cv's usually left to battle it out. Good times WG....

As main armament in UK crusiers is AP you would need to be 4.7-5.3 klm from any targets in all your games to complete this mission with secondary's.....

Many thanks..This has Made a difference. I can report that the fps is higher for me around (10-15 fps) and doesn't bottom out under heavy load. However the sound IS still distorting under same conditions as before. So no change there unfortunately.

AI has improved a lot recently. which im all for as we need more of a challenge in these operations (some of them anyway )...There recent ability to dodge torps so effectively always puts a smile on my face, because other than that I find they just sail in a strait line giving me citadel opportunities left right and centre. Sounds like your doing the same though so perhaps look at your positioning and angle your direction in regards to attack or defend (advance or reteat).

Yes I've been experimenting with this as well and to be honest I find her easyer to use than the other nations cv"'s. I find that on the bomber side of things when that reticle is white you can click it when it's almost on the enemy target. That way when it turns orange it's shrink back from the target is just enough so that it usually turns green bang on the target...obviously the earlyer you do it the more time it can give you but if the target is turning and you have to adjust whilst the reticle is green it makes for an inaccurate drop.... Oh ...and what's with the poor penitration of bombs? I get 70- 80% non penitration's when using them Anyone else finding this?

This is a windows 10 issue.I belive. I'm still running windows 7. And have the current fps issue. @MrConway have WG actually looked in to a memory leak possibility? At all yet? ....

OK mate I think you need to fill out a ticket and send it to cs support. It's easy to do and you should get a response fairly quick. I dont belive with all the tests you have done that's it's specific to you...I would hazard a guess it's server related or adleast a conflict at WG end but a ticket will help give you pice of mind. .

I got the Hermes today and I find it very underpowered. Hard to make a significant or any impact on the game IMO. Anyone else? 62 crowns 510 florins left after getting her...

Ive just got the Hermes because I though its time to see what all the fuss was about in these new carriers. Im not a cv player by any means but in order to have a valid opinion and all that... NOW I see what the fuss was about. Planes are so slow its ridiculous, torp planes carry 1 torp and the damage output is non existent. Bombs have little damage output rockets spray like a tom cat...I mean its easy control wise but you usually make 1 pass and that's it.... planes are shot down back to your carrier rinse and repeat. Im already board and frustrated. I guess these things were nerfed with an atom bomb because the Hermes seems useless and unable to make any impact on the game. Just my experience so far.....if there that bad ill drop them like a hot potato and go back to my cruisers...

OMG easy on the lecture yeah....its a computer game, its not like we've lost child or something.... Everyone makes mistakes, like your and your spelling.... Besides with co op, random, Scenario and ranked....its not just about flags....or modules ...or consumables...etc.

Check and repair under game settings on the game Centre solved this issue a while back for me.

This has been Gave up on this web site a while ago....seemed to have been having an issue for ages now, never updating you info properly so would't be surprised if WG stopped sending data.....

Yup have mentioned this before , bloody annoying. Why is everyone in such a hurry?? A set 5 second limit wouldn't hurt...

Interesting, at 8.30secs in to this video she talks about memory leaks found but in regards to multiple servers for clan battles....surely this is similar no?

got it ...yes better was the wrong word to use my apologies. I Got confused because the post above yours... is mine. Premiums can be hit and miss IMO. They are either a good ship because they suit your style of play or there not, usualy for that reason. Funny how many people complain about crap premiums when they cant play them or any other ship for Toffie On topic: Belfast I don't own one, but I have wanted one badly and missed the opportunity to get one back in the day. I didn't fancy spending my whole Christmas budget on trying to find one in one of those Santa crates. I ve played it on a friends account and watched some people more than proficient in it and honestly it is a strong ship in the right hands. Its fragile as all the RNL cruisers are But its strength lies in its consumables. That thing with its good concealment can change a course of a battle without even being spotted if played right....and as for contesting caps against dd's well... They only become easy to wipe out when the person at the wheel doesn't know what he's doing.

Received reply from 2nd ticket.... Telling me to update graphics driver sound driver because its old (I know this...) That's because AMD stopped supporting it THIS WAS NEVER AN ISSUE TILL 0.8.0 FFS. I know its an older system I know it needs updating, im building a new rig in the next few months but this was a very stable system giving 50-60 fps consistently. I have no isuues with any other games except WOWS SINCE 0.8.0. It seems that if you have an older system WG are like a dog with a bone, it must be me because....x y z regardless of your stable fps before update But if you have a shiny new system WG are like : were looking into it PLEASE stop passing the buck WG its getting very frustrating, I know you need to cover all the basis but were not all that stupid and I ve been into PC's for a LONG time. I KNOW THIS ISSUE IS NOT DOWN TO ME I hope they get to the bottom of this ASAP.

wait a min...what? Forgive me mate but I don't understand what you are saying......if you are saying that premium ships are NOT deliberately better than tech tree/silver ships....HOW is there a clear and present state of P2W?
