    The kind of Matchmaking that needs to stop

    Relatively simple relation. Recent BB overpopulation has made playing cruisers less and less attractive for an increasing number of people. That and the increased numbers of BBs encourage playing DDs which are one of the classes least penalized by large numbers of BBs (more big slow ships to torpedo). That also indirectly leads to making cruisers yet even less attractive as the odd couple ones still playing are typically detected more often and will be targeted proportionally often by the increased number of BBs. Too many BBs around making for nice targets for DDs and making life hard for DD counters result in more DDs being played. Maybe a couple months of torpedo soup is exactly what we need to cull the BB overpopulation down to more normal levels at which point cruisers will become more feasible and attractive as counter to the DDs, which in turn would hopefully decrease the DD numbers back to normal levels aswell.

    Forumbekanntschaften!

    Mitsamt Clan Division auf Crysantos und Izoz in deren Division gestoßen. Izoz wurde leider ein wenig früh zurück in den Hafen fokussiert ...

    Small poll about the term "ez"

    Voted yes, with the condition that it's filed under the usual banter category. And I mean banter, not trashtalk (because not all banter is trashtalk, but all trashtalk involves banter, unless it's actually insulting, then it's just the player being a douchecanoe). Best employed after a hardfought clutch and/or a game that was looking like a loss before a surprising turnaround. Everyone with normal sense will know it's ironic (though as with everything banter, there's always some special guys who take offense). People who hardly contributed to the fight are naturally required to use the addition "[...] for me, because everyone else was doing the lifting". If not used correctly, others may supply the required addendum as per proper banter procedure. For exemplary moments of snatching victory from the jaws of nearly assured defeat, one may even one-up "ez" to "ez pzy lemon sqzy".

  5. Had quite the couple of great games today, including detonating an enemy Yamato with my own for a Devastating Strike (in all fairness though, that salvo looked like he'd eat a handful of citadels anyway, gotta love dat Yamato sigma!) or a game that was over so fast that even my Khabarovsk I only did ~18k damage before the enemy team hit 0 points and lost after five minutes But as usual, something with pretty pixels: Enemy Saipan kept sending his aircraft straight into my AA range, but the friendly CV also apparently took my offer of AA assistance to heart and drew enemy aircraft over me. Ended in 20 airplane kills, including a rather memorable instant massacre of a Saipan fighter squadron that went from full to annihilated in the span of two seconds Almost managed to secure the Kraken, but sadly the enemy Ibuki wasn't too cooperative and the Amagi got the last salvo in ... but I ain't even mad since the Amagi and the Tirpitz on our team were actually doing a great job at pushing along and tanking as opposed to the typically ubiquitious maxrange camping BBs that're too afraid to scratch their paintjob. Considering my game crashed halfway through the game (thx WG) and I had to restart to get back into it, this is quite the result to achieve I believe And since I'm in sweet socialist love with my Khababerovsk: I fricken' love every Dreadnought I get in this thing because it's just so much fun being over the top aggressive in this ship (though in this case I had to tactically withdraw a couple times because the focus fire was getting rather intense at a couple occasions: I think 2,8kk potential damage tells that story). This ship is just soooooo much fun I also live the fact that I'm apparently an equal opportunity nuisance as I nearly caused the exact same damage to both players of the Kurfürsten division

    I'm in this clan to play with friends, not alone. If you have issues with how I play my game, go take it to the authorities for all I care.

    Win Rate

    Please do list those greater players that are saying that winrate is just luck (and conversely not related to individual performance). Because I haven't seen that and it's about time you actually cite any of the supposed sources for your outlandish claims. You can't keep on dismissing the various arguments brought forth from (greater) players, some of which have been backed up by cold, hard stochastics whilst refusing to back up your arguments with naught but your biased opinion and "NahNahNahI'MNOTHEARINGYOU" every time someone dismantles your brittle attempts at logic.

    Gift shop discussion! Elements!

    Pretty sure the campaign camouflage for the Tirpitz with includes +100% free XP has that honour, followed by the Anshan with its natural +100% free XP bonus.

    *sigh* Go on and live in your own world then if you can't even be arsed to agree on a common ground as basic as speaking the same language.

    Kamikaze R Skin...COE

    To be perfectly honest, I think the original Kamikaze R camouflage looks way better and the additional bonuses are hardly worth talking about other than how underwhelmingly negligible the effective benefits are.

    Ein neuer Rechner muss her.

    So lang man nicht für kosmetischen Schnickschnack extra bezahlt ist ein Gehäuse mit gut Platz für eine Menge Lüfter und Luftfiltern durchaus gut angesetztes Geld. Mehr als 100€ für ein gutes großes (E-ATX für'n richtig dickes System) Gehäuse würde ich allerdings nicht ausgeben wenn man keinen Schnickschnack wie Sichtfenster haben muss. Wichtig ist hauptsächlich gute Luftfilter. Staub und andere Feinpartiklen sind der Erzfeind jedweder internen Komponenten. Gute Luftfilter vor jedem Ansauglüfter ist etwas wofür man gerne etwas Geld zahlen kann. Spart man sich den PC zu häufig ausseinander nehmen und mit Druckluft reinigen zu müssen. Einfach rausnehmbare Filter sind noch besser aber mittlererweile zum Glück fast Standard für alles was auch gute Filter hat (meist magnetisch). Ansonsten muss da in den PC halt alles was ein PC braucht. Einen Kostenvoranschlag zu liefern wäre da schon hilfreich wenn man nach Tipps fragt weil man da viel an Leistung optimieren je nachdem wofür die Maschine genutzt werden soll and was für Leistung erwünscht ist. Soll es ein Spiele PC sein (also eher Fokus auf Grafikpower als CPU Rechenkraft (obgleich andere Spiele auch gerne mehr CPU denn Grafikpower brauchen ...) und Speicherplatz?) Wenn ja, was für Spiele und bei welcher Auflösung? Vielleicht soger hohe Bildwiederholungsraten wenn's ein fixer Monitor ist (120+ Hz)? Willst du Streamen oder ordentlich was an Videobearbeitung machen (braucht dann auch gut CPU Saft)? Willst du an CPU und Grafikkarte ordentlich an der Leistung nachdrehen (übertakten braucht solide Kühlung)? Antworten auf die Fragen und eine grobe Preisvorstellung wäre gut.

    Invasion of Tulagi

    Wait, is that you? If so, what a neat coincidence. That game was the one that completed the final mission stage for me and overall a very intense (and intensely fun) game.

    I'm pretty certain the only problem here is you not knowing what "criticism" means and what not. Might want to peruse a dictionary and take note of the definition and what said definition pointedly doesn't include.

    I'm afraid you have a very naughty neighbour, havaduck. Why don't you visit us? I hear the beaches at the Baltic sea are very nice in summer, with excellent views

    Yup. Just not allowed to actually watch any entertainment, that's why we have to make our own. Ever wondered where all that german vintage porn comes from?

    Yeah, if you'd have to pay aliments to a fat lady (all ex's are fat, it's a universal law), might aswell pay fuel for a fat lady with a bigass gun on her instead.
