Wait ... are you saying that because the game works better on better HW ... that is a problem? Buy a better PC then ... perhaps your stats will improve and not just the eye candy. Or try to play with your settings to squeeze better performance (for the cost of graphic detail). I think this game works "ok" on slower PCs with adjusted settings.

Lately I had games where DD numbers were higher as usual (4.5 per side), but them again, we shall have french cruisers "balance out" the meta soon.

I will tell you what is the problem of ranked. ... Its the lack of FUN. Current system works by gaining (and loosing) starts to progress. And that is dependent on team play of random players. Do you see me where I am going? Frustration. The smoke meta / premium meta / AFK BOTS just make it worse. So consider doing something for the Ranked in the future. Current system is just too frustrating to enjoy.

Current system is there for a reason - BOTS. Plus it makes you play other ships too ... so its even a good thing imo.

Hello, Regarding the Talking Ships video: NA: -60% off Skill point reset -60% off Commander retraining -60% off Premium consumables + tons of other stuff EU: x2 XP first win of the day 15% discount Atago, Kutuzov, Eugen 30% discount VI - VIII Cruisers I mean .. where is your imagination EU WG???? Have I missed this on the EU server? I have several captains that I need to reset, because of the 0.6.0 patch. So this would be very handy. When can we expect this to get in the EU? And why is there not a similar series for the EU server? Is WG EU really that "tight" up? I am already sorry that I did not register on the NA when I started playing this game. NA guys care and interact with their player base, unlike EU staff.

More accurate comparison would be that Nutella is better quality in west eu than it is in the east eu. Its the same company (parent) after all.

If you ask me its ok. Seal clubbing exists and If they prevent it for CVs they might aswell prevent it for other classes too (and I am not a CV player). Biggest problem for me is that there are 2 CVs per team at T4 and T5. That should be reduced to max 1 CV per game.

Finally I have grinded the Bayern and bought Gnaisenau. I hated the Bayern, with its retarded dispersion ... one of the worst ship for me in the game. I just hope I have better success in the Gnaisenau, since I do pretty ok in the Sharnhorst. Now to sell the Bayern ...

This is the only thing in game that I really dislike. I dont mind grinding, paying for captain retraining, extra slots, ports, etc, etc ... but captain skills? I freaking EARNED them, so I should be entitled to redistribute them when ever I want. The price is just insane!!! 300 gold for 14 pt captain redistribution??!?! From the latest patch (looking at the IFHE that is completely UNCLEAR how it works and on what ship it works on - to an average player) I have at least 10 ships with builds that I am not happy with. It will cost me 20 euros to redistribute those points. My answer to elite xp???? ... (insert some bad words here). WG ... please ... reconsider this greedy prices ... open skill redistribution for silver. And you know what? They have the retarded GUI delay when changing a ship or ... I like to call it DOUBLE CLICK RIPOFF. Here is an example (dont laugh at me please, I wass so pissed at the time): You pick a Clemson. You open captain skills. You pick a Fletcher (that you want to redistribute). The GUI actually moves, but Fletcher dont get selected, because sometimes the double click doesnt work as It should and the ship doesnt change (admit how many times you took the wrong ship into game because of this). It happend to me once .. and I spent 250 gold to redistribute skills on a ship I didnt want to (by mistake), and then another 250 just to chance them back to what they were. 500 gold because of a stupid GUI glitch. Yea I know .. you will say ... you should check ... but still ... its a complete RIPOFF!

Oh well .... I am no expert in this game, but since I started watching my stats (daily) I dont have as much fun in this game as I used to. Now ... I win 3 games ... loose 2 ... and I quit playing because I fee like I am gonna mess up my stats. I am beginning to realize that keeping track on stats might not be a good thing after all...

How about a pacman style map? Like you sail to the south side and pop up on the north side. That would be fun lol.

OP please include iChase video on your topic opening post, so we have this summed up.

So its a Derzki/Kitakami mix at T5

Plus they have a massive "engine" penalty. If you forget the territory beyond the border, the enemy pulling a "Notser" on the border is very easy to hit like waxx25 pointed out. Actually if the enemy hits the border then border is your biggest friend that forces him to expose broadside. You just have to be patient and fire at the right time as he makes the "turn".

Please dont take this the wrong way, but from your stats: Extremely rarely uses torpedoes Torpedoes are to be fired with care, they are not "launch and forget" thing and they are YOUR responsibility. I am mostly a DD player and torpedoes are my main weapon of choice. If I see a potential friendly that my torps could hit i hold them back and re-position. Blaming them to sail into your torps is a very bad excuse.

Hello, When engaging in close quarters combat I have sometimes problem that the mechanics stops tracing target. The indicator (lock) is still above the target.... but the aim is almost impossible (just as you would deactivate the feature in the settings). Has someone encountered this?

You can select a voice over in audio settings afik

Im not entirely sure about this one ... the ship looks ugly as hell, the turning circle is abnormal .... and the 4.5 km torps make me nervous. It reminds me of a roman galley with a broken mast.

Glad that I am not only one with this. Ill report the bug later, hopefully WG dev team will look into it.

Its not just "zooming". The tracking mechanism actually stops tracking the target, making me "start catching it" with the mouse. Hard to explain, I hope I make sense... Today I got close to Ognevoi that was sitting in smoke in my Kiev. This "bug" made me miss 3 salvos completely.

Actually I agree. Having a business myself, Its hard to imagine to "trick" customers that way. Fortunately for WG we only yawn on forums ... and the topic will fade away tomorrow already.

Weird bug I encountered today... After the game got stuck in the loading (I reported that bug several times) I had to kill the process and restart WoWS. After logging in the client auto-rejoined the battle (late to the party, but ok...). But today when I got into the game I got an island-free mini map. Worst punishment for the Kiev. The islands reappeared once I had restarted the client. Weird .. I never had this before ... and before you start with "do you use mods" ... yes I do for a long time, but this never happened before.

There is this island on "Neighbour" map thats driving me insane. Its so tiny that its barely even visible on minimap. Ive parked my ship there by accident multiple times. This one: Specially when ships cluster on the minimap

The way they are playing with game mechanics effecting the builds (looking at the IFHE) they should reduce the cost. Since we all "earned" the points we should be able to respec them any time... or at least for silver. But 350 gold to respec 14 points? Thats just greed.
