New EU DD line - So now can Commonwealth & RN Serve together!
Gnirf replied to Admiral_H_Nelson's topic in General Discussion
Sorry, meant apart from that line ofc , but I thought that was understood... -
New EU DD line - So now can Commonwealth & RN Serve together!
Gnirf replied to Admiral_H_Nelson's topic in General Discussion
Naturally, but it would have made them too strong gamewise perhaps? Hope for a commonwealth navy? Well I do not mind the idea personally as I have Vampire Perth and Haida but should some lines should have inherited advantages above others? -
Why ships were not designed with a 360 rotation turrets?
Gnirf replied to steveraptor's topic in General Discussion
As above but there are lots of other considerations, you have magazines and the turret structure far down in the hull, which as the hull narrows more further back will have less protection from shells, mines and torps. Distance from outer shell is necessary here, if the turret opening is too large compared with the beam it also adds stresses to the hull (girder). While you could have made Kirov longer and kept the beam it would have made the ship heavier and more costly larger area the needed to be protected etc to name just a few obstacles. You can not fully compare situations in Wows where suddenly threats are coming out of nowhere from any direction on random sides and positions with reality. Especially not larger ships. -

It stopped working 30 min or so after stream ended I think I recall a reddit thread -
Dont forget to re-spec all your old port queens
Gnirf replied to OldschoolGaming_YouTube's topic in General Discussion
Thank you it is eay to forget captains in store which you hav egrinded up /replaced or similar -
When you are not further in the game you think that you do not need them but I have around 400 atm and it is too few. You have always use for them the freexp Papapapa should be used in combination with this ESCL for max effect. Those 100 are used up pretty quickly, I have too ration mine.

As a Swede I have already decided to go full lunatic. I did not bought any RN premium containers so it was somewhat deliberate. I bought 21 and recieved 1220 Tokens. More 20s than the average but I recieved 2 x250 which is as expected roughly. These will get me the first 3 tiers guaranteed and togetehr with Småland will make me clear the 5 mission requirement to get the T10 Permacamos. That is my goal so to speak.If I just miss a few for next tier after the Free I might buy that too, not sure yet. These special signals are always welcome and credits for my Hakuryu 2nd stage in LU. Have few camos and as I must play CV in Coop for non-competence reasons these European camos have value. This note is not to make you buy anything just that the random seems to drop rather randomly = equal chance for each, if this is true I do not know but my drop indicated that, that is also why I bought 21 (thought to buy 20 at first but I needed 1 more to cross the 1200 threshold for a little more safety in the numbers, buying 4-5 are too few but 21 out of 92 is a relative good sample..

WoWs economy - how fast and how much FreeXP can you earn (in view of 2.000.000 FreeXP price for the upcoming Tier X EU DD "Smaland")?
Gnirf replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
Problem is that most players that are F2P but play a lot can bag by monthly missions and HoF , directives a lot of powerful camos and signals for free, but it is only enogh for a major burst say each half years or so. MR containers gives generally lots of Papa papa. -
Well I had the doubloons already so no extra Swedish devalued crowns to WG.

Gnirf replied to Jethro_Grey's topic in General Discussion
It says T5 and higher so you can play with a T10. Should be enough to play in a higher tier average/mediocre if you win If you have ships that you perform really well in 1200-1600 is not unusual. I think I have reached around 2600 in König. -
Must agree that her reviews are second to none if you want in writing, with all tables etc. I always look on NA forum to see if any new reviews are published or go back to earlier ones for speccing etc. Really a great CC.

So...when do you compliment or report players?
Gnirf replied to blindhai's topic in General Discussion
Players that I have nice conversation with, players that helps and does the best they can, forum members I recognize, players that I think does good, especially if I win agame and there are several more players that I think have contributed a lot even if they do not score so high,.let us say i play a good game but not stellar but I think the team has played well I may compliment 5-6 players or so depending on score. Outstanding players I often compliment in lost battles to. Had a game f.e. lost game with several hopeless players where I had arond 1300 XP in Izmail 3 ships sunk and ggood dmg and my Lexington had roughly same score, next player had 700 iin our team, long and hard fight, I was disappointed on some of our players that throwed the game but we 2 held out for long, I complimented him as we did our best and not any steps wrong. But as I play many games especially on weekends my compliments often rans out. Bots (programmed round the map drivers) I report. AFK generally not as RL commitments sometimes must take notice (random/coop) ranked is another matter. It is just agame and you do not know if it is just bad luck or so. Deliberate saboteurs i report generally. Not new players if I know it. Passive BBs with full health in endgame that does not commit I may report f.e. if we are losing and they do nothing to stop it. I report in my own team, very seldom at other teams request if it is not a serious offence, not bad play. If they are teamkillers mostly but not always, if they apologize I accept it generally. I have teamkilled myself a few times. -
So the "placeholder" rumors were true... the Tier X EU DD "Smaland" will cost 2.000.000 FreeXP...
Gnirf replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
Somewhat I play the napkin designs too but I always enjoy real ships more, but that is because I am a naval buff foremost and not a gamer -
The respecperiod should be a month (or to next big update) what does it hurt? I will reset all relevant ships i.e. all the light cruisers and RN DDs and such and then wait for commentarys guides. I have too many to bother testing myself so reset it is. I have other lines to grind so it is not that I have enough ships. As I have not played HIV with IFHE it is no heavy cruisers that are involved or IFHE on BBs sec builds, I have manual secs on these few ships. BTW is there a lower limit on tiers for light cruisers that makes it not interesting? I have not IFHE om low tiers anyway as the DE is often the go to skill and i have very few above 10 points but nonetheless. I have a few favourite ships Budyonny f.e. where I might reach enough points to go for such a skill. But i have plenty of T8-10 with IFHE, Cleveland, Worcester, Chapayev etc.

Yes I am from Sweden so I will not be a role model just plain stupid! It is also that I have nothing to spend my doubloons on, have every ship in shop and Permacamos on many ships , all T10s f.e.. so that is another situation to nearly all players, other players may buy a few if that is bringing them up a Tier f.e.
-
The football season starts soon (if not everything is cancelled due to Corona) and the better weather also makes a difference in time, as I will keep all and have all with own captains it is valuable to start early.
-
Sad only T9--10, low mid tiers was superfun, I would have loved a T1 ranked sprint 7 vs 7.
-
Yes but the answer was to the post that you pay 90 K for the chance, which is simply not true, even if the 12x250 =3000 is last the other 82 is enough for T9. I presented my excelcalculations yesterday, with caveats. Let us say that you by 30-40 I will say the chances are quite low that you get the all thebottom picks and no 250, but say if you think you can by 5-15 and calculate with 67 you have a high risk on being disappointed. The median is substantially lower. As a Swede I am biased here so I will not act rationally at all. 2 M FreeXP for Småland is far too high but it is in my hometown so I must have it on day 1 (have the FreeXP so no conversion). Hayate on the other hand.....No! It does not even exist but Småland exists today even. I have been on her a few times + Belfast so I must have them it does not matter the cost sadly.
-
[PÖLL] Do you think 2M FXP is a reasonable price for (T10) ships.
Gnirf replied to MrFingers's topic in General Discussion
true but 10 K of them are from your 10 K starting bonus, you can only get 40 from double points regrinds (1 per season), you do not get those 10 K as a starting bonus later., So you have to calculate 3 resets if you freexp all, however this sum is ofc zero if you grind. That is the cost for me as I have the Ohio. -
Still do not understand? ,You have 92 diff packages but you "only" need 3000 tokens on average (given equal chance) it is 45 bundles (avg 67). As the numbers are heavily scewed because spread it is nothing to be sure of but that is the averagereturn over large population. So you do not need 92 K in Gold, proably far less, especially as you get some free containers also. I account for bad RNG on the Free but the 92 are 92. I assume they are equal chance at least even though I have not seen at all, the Free ones i except are totally dominant on infinite numbers of low I assume, Maybe 15 -20 on average, though I assume it will be threads on actual payouts.

Gnirf replied to Leo_Apollo11's topic in General Discussion
Well if you just FreeXP and doing captain transfers you are right but fort me as a collector the smart way is to actually grind, as it is a way to use your special signals in captain training aslo at the same time as you grind, you do not train your captains by FreeXPing. I have now retrained IJN BB 3 x and have 19p from T6-10. -
But you also devalue the signals like ouroborus and the other expensive signals that you get from various bundles and containers. While I admit that you get a lot for free, more than before the value of a bundle/crate/container is also decreased. That is regardless of how I value the signal and WG. If the cost for a Ouroborus is X and the ship costs 1 000 000 FreeXP I can determine through how much time do I save by buying these signals and I have a lot which some I have recieved free but large numbers I have paid for in christmas crates and other containers and bundles. If suddenly the prize of a ship is 2 000 000 the value is now x/2. I do recognize that it is a T10 and I would have expected a prize of around 1,4 maybe 1,5 with a little stretch, but if you inflate the prizes in this amount you decrease the value on your bundles a lot, it is what these flags represent in power to progress faster that makes them valuable. I have been hoarding FreeXp since Friesland was released about 1 500 000 (can buy Småland directly as I have in excess of 2 000 000) but I play far more than most players, and I have not used them for much else except a few stock grinds. I am from Sweden so my own prizetag is substantially higher than most players, think it is sad if a museumship does not been purchased enough if it is deemed too expensive by most players. Overall I am extremely happy over the release over my own countrys ships.

One thing you might notice is that the points problem and early stop fights are scewed towards domination games with no Red cap from the start as the bots almost never cap. But in standard mode and domination on some maps with 4 zones where each team starts with one gives the Bots som points so then it takes far longer for them to reach zero. In a 3 point domination mode where they do not get any + points without sinking there you have the problem. (Btw I have roughly 10 K in Pve and 20K+ in Random ).
