"Just not as much" ... understatement of the year candidate . I also very much doubt it's working as intended (as in the intent was to reward players for team activities, i.e.: spotting in this case) considering how the system works (damage only counts if the ship is still spotted when taking damage and the way the game handles spotting priorities means even though you were the one that originally spotted the target, by the time any shells arrive someone else may already be the primary spotter if they moved close enough, or are using hydro/radar/airplanes). The mechanics are there, but they "work" so haphazardly with rewards so miniscule that the actual design goal behind spotting damage has been well and truly missed. Same for tanking potential damage, which is hilarious since it's pretty straightforward to get an accurate read on that, so really the only reason that isn't rewarded noticably is because WG simply isn't handing out any noticable amounts of rewards (credits/XP) for it, period. The reward you get for doing such stuff is giving your team a better chance at winning. But actual, direct rewards in credits/XP are so few it's entirely negligible, you land one additional salvo of damage on the enemy team and will have gotten just as much if not more credits and XP for that action than spotting and tanking over the entire match.

Just keep an eye out for the actual damage you took and you can do the quick math if you know what ship can citadel you for what amount of damage. And if you're unsure you can always just ask the guy that shot you in all-chat. Besides that I don't know what informative purpose knowing that would have. It just means you lost a huge chunk of HP and you can heal back only a fraction of that damage, but your ship's HP count and the Damage Repair party tooltip already show you exactly how much HP you lost and how much you can heal back with a charge, so~ ...

@Loran_Battle, @Live85, @Reaper_JackGBR, I summon thee!

Oh, you're not playing the 'stupid' card again? Progress. We're all very proud of you! Here, have an achievement sticker: Went all out and got you the premium sticker too!

Not the most sensible mission design, but you can always just go Bravo team and rotate people to play cruisers. That's going to give you the necessary ribbons in a handful games.

@Crysantos, @MrConway Just a small heads up that the forum formatting is getting screwed by the advertisement banner stretching everything out. Isn't the first time something like this happened so I'd suggest setting a maximum size guideline for ads so they don't mess with the webpage presentation. For reference, my browser window takes up around 3/4 of my 1080p resolution screen. If your marketing team works with higher resolution displays it might not be as apparent as to what their ad designs look like on smaller resolutions. As you can see in the screenshots the webpage is stretched so wide that if fully sidescrolled, it's not even possible to read topic titles. Cheers

First of all, CV rework wants to have up to three (!!!) CVs per match. Secondly, one reason why WG wants to have more CVs per team in a match is because it dilutes the impact of any given player. You get a potato CV player on your team? The other two can still do work. Enemy team gets a super-unicum CV player? The other two blokes could be crap and you've got three chances that at least one of your CV players is competent. Thirdly, from tier VIII onwards there is a 1 CV per team hardcap in current MM on the live-servers anyway.

Not just a problem on mobiles. It also messes up webpage presentation on a 1080p desktop browser. That ad banner is faaaaaaar too long to be reasonable. I can only assume marketing guy made this on a high resolution, possibly widescreen display and didn't bother to check with other resolutions.

Objectively false! There's lots of retailers that sell "mystery boxes" which contain unknown items with the same legislative saveguard that the value of items in the box is equal or greater to the asking price. You'd probably just have to go to a local discounter and find the equivalent, usually marketed at children in the form of surprise toy packages. Also incredibly popular with fan merchandise. For something closer, even the WG shop (as in the merchandise retailer, not the premium shop) did those mystery boxes on regular occasions.

Yeah, things were rough for us today. We still came out with a plus but otherwise not a lot of things went our way. I'll just say tonight's highlight for me was losing 31k HP in one volley (5 shells) from a Stalingrad at 15km despite me already well in the process of angling out. Guess those Des Moines angle Stalinium railguns still found something to bite into and then citadel the crap out of my Zao. Just urgh ... And our match could've really gone either way up until the end of the match, that was a very nice pull through from you guys! We didn't go purely sealclubbing for relaxation though. It's just that the last match was my pick and I wanted something real cheeky to cheer me up and as I've said, the party boat always delivers!

Having a couple chill games to get the daily mission chains after CB session, ended with me taking out the party boat for the last game. Party boat never disappoints! Almost got the Double Strike too, but dispersion let me down and the fire damage ticked a wee bit too slow sadly. I'm sure @Loran_Battle and @Reaper_JackGBR can attest to me having had lots of fun

Wait, there's people that don't move their bodies along?

And it says so. Massachusetts, NOT Massachusetts B!!!

You're calling people stupid. That's a personal attack and you putting words into paranthesis doesn't change anything.

I think the fact that your comments are getting edited by mods should give you a clue that what you're doing isn't well received by anyone here.

Err ... what? Did I read that correctly? Let me check again ... Yep, read it correctly. I hope that was hyperbole and not meant to be a genuine, serious argument.

He actually hadn't. There used to be a quite vague list of limitations that where only later edited out. As for understanding English, you obviously aren't too capable on that front either since you keep repeating the "non-premium" requirement despite the fact that even the post facto limitations allow coal/steel premium ships. Pot, meet kettle! Also: Erm ... That's literally from the same comment. In absence of you honouring your own rules I only have the following to say: bloody hypocrite!

Not interested. Though I'm mildly (and positively) surprised there's no steel drops in those lootboxes. Then again I suspect that has more to do with WG not wanting to saturate the market prior to the premium steel missions.

Well, I'm german and my issued fun-license hasn't been renewed yet (I presume the bureaucracy is getting bogged down with the usual pre-christmas influx), so I'm handicapped in that regard. I did make sure I applied for my sarcasm-license in a more timely fashion however so I'm allowed that at least.

Wheels? Why would they need wheels? You have thousands of vodka-stimmed sailors that can carry them around!

You mean calling half the posters in here being stupid was you trying to be humourous? Cute.

Oh boo-hoo, go call the fun-GESTAPO, put the fun in camps. Besides, the requirements wasn't a "non" premium ship. It actually went with some pretty convoluted and vague limitations to premiums which was later edited out. Besides, I could simply say Flint and it's basically the same bloody ship and allowed because it's a steel premium. So just take your attitude and stick it.

You can give them to me

Installed the Extended Tech-Tree mod again, here screenshots of Stalingrad citadel armour and possible troll armour scheme: Citadel: 50mm forward casemate extension: Spaced armour below waterline: @Reaper_JackGBR, @Loran_Battle.

@El2aZeR enjoying the new AL log-in screen?
