    Is a premium carrier needed in Wows?

    -Tiers 2 and 3 should be free of carriers. -A new-to-carriers player driving a premium high tier CV is going to get rekt by the enemy carrier, along with his team.
  2. Anyone remember how to turn off the automatic system that turns my ship when I approach land? It has been driving my ship in the manner I don't want it to do.

    Automatic land collision avoidance

    Thanks. I'll check it out.

    BAD and CHEATING PLAYERS

    It is just a game and accidents happen in the fray. Sometimes an ally torps you and sometimes your torp hits an ally. However, your attitude should be that torping an ally is your bad. Do not expect that your allies to dodge your torps. They often have the red ships to worry about and don't pay attention to your torps. However, a DD driver can tunnelvision to his opponent and not pay enough attention to his allies and accidentally torp an ally. It is not just the selfish jerks who don't care.

    What other nations can we expect in WoWs?

    American Destroyers are already in the game. Yes, they are gunboats like this one.

    APR KONGO

    Do they look like regular Kongos on the battlefield if Yokosuka port isn't selected?
  7. Dresden's caliber is tiny and the German HE damage is low. Germans have good AP damage and high firing arc, so they shoot AP and do damage with plunging hits that can be shot behind islands. If you want HE damage, St. Louis is the better ship for that.
  8. I've noticed the lag problem too. This really shouldn't happen in a game like this.
  9. Let's take a look at the ships from Wikipedia: Tier2: Russian protected cruiser Novik https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_cruiser_Novik_(1900) Tier 3: Russian protected cruiser Bogatyr https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogatyr-class_cruiser Tier 4: Russian light cruiser Svetlana https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svetlana-class_cruiser Tier 5: Soviet heavy cruiser Kirov https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirov-class_cruiser Tier 6: Budyonnyi? Tier 7: Shors? Tier 8: Soviet heavy cruiser Chapayev https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapayev-class_cruiser Tier 9: Dimitri Donskoi? Tier 10: Moskva Maybe this one?: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_cruiser_Moskva That one seems pretty new, though. Anyway, these are my guesses for the ships.

    0.5.3 Feedback

    I've found that the game sometimes makes a black screen with white border around it. It doesn't let you alt-tab out or does that when alt-tabbing while loading the game or such. This has happened mostly when loading the game and alt-tabbing. I have to kill the game using Windows's task manager two or three times today due to this problem.

    About fail divisions

    All ships are counted as same tier ships as the highest tier ship in the division. For example, if you make a division with Yamato and Sampson in it, both Yamato and Sampson are considered as tier 10 ships in the matchmaking.
  12. Agantas

    It's irnoic really.

    You are more accurate than Aisu, but not as much as that number says, since the different ship distributions throws that general accuracy numbers in your favour since you play more cruisers than Aisu does, while Aisu plays more BBs.

    Any thoughts on Japanese premium BB or BC?

    I see you quickly responded before my edit got in. Essentially, South Dakota's detection systems were broken and she accidentally ran yolo into the enemy team. The Japanese ships spotted South Dakota at distance of 4.6 km, illuminated her and opened fire. Regarding "duel", that's semantics, but if you want to call a BB running into the red team, the red team focusing fire on the BB and the BB getting off a couple of desperate shots before her systems are disabled a duel, go ahead. Here's an article about BB Washington for further information about the incident: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Washington_(BB-56)#Battleship_Kirishima_vs_Washington I can't manage to un-break the link now, but I'm sure you can manage to get to the right article from that link.

    Any thoughts on Japanese premium BB or BC?

    It is in the Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_Battle_of_Guadalcanal#Second_Naval_Battle_of_Guadalcanal.2C_14.E2.80.9315_November South Dakota suffered from an electrical failure which made her radar, radios and most of her gun control systems inoperable. SoDak was able to get a few shots off at Kirishima, though. However, it was not a duel, since multiple Japanese ships were firing at South Dakota. Here's a quote: Almost blind and unable to effectively fire her main and secondary armament, South Dakota was illuminated by searchlights and targeted by gunfire and torpedoes by most of the ships of the Japanese force, including Kirishima, beginning around midnight on 15 November. Although able to score a few hits on Kirishima, South Dakota took 26 hits—some of which did not explode—that completely knocked out her communications and remaining gunfire control operations, set portions of her upper decks on fire, and forced her to try to steer away from the engagement. All of the Japanese torpedoes missed. As for Washington, here's the relevant quote: The Japanese ships continued to concentrate their fire on South Dakota and none detected Washington approaching to within 9,000 yd (8,200 m). Washington was tracking a large target (Kirishima) for some time but refrained from firing since there was a chance it could be South Dakota. Washington had not been able to track South Dakota's movements because she was in a blind spot in Washington's radar and Lee could not raise her on the radio to confirm her position. When the Japanese illuminated and fired on South Dakota, all doubts were removed as to which ships were friend or foe. From this close range, Washington opened fire and quickly hit Kirishima with at least nine main battery shells and at least seventeen secondary ones, causing heavy damage and setting her aflame.[N 1] Kirishima was hit below the waterline and suffered a jammed rudder, causing her to circle uncontrollably to port.

    St Louis needs to go

    Just hop into your South Carolina and remove the St. Louises from the game manually. The green St. Louises will be on the red team another day, so you don't have worry about them.

    Proposal to Wargaming: A premium carrier

    The point was to get 150 airplane kills for the Kongo challenge. CV is the best ship for getting airplane kills. The task is complete for me, and the Zuiho I have is a relic from that task. Perhaps it is time to sell it and get a Clemson or Omaha to replace it.

    [stats] Kamikaze vs Minekaze

    7.2 second turn time is not faster than 6.0 second turn time for the tubes.

    How do you see who killed you?

    You can just say nice cross drop, red CV or something like that. He'll know who he is.

    Aiming torpedoes is it that hard?

    Some carriers manage to be just that nimble that torping them becomes a nightmare. The torps just won't hit. Missed the bath tub. Again. And again. And again.
  20. The issue is that if you didn't click the "Join Project R" button fast enough, it was not possible to gather 260 pearls. It is not obvious that you have to click a button on the game website to join an in-game event. This is, in fact, the first time I encounter such a mechanism. An in-game event that has to be triggered out of the game. I also see no forum announcement of the project starting I gathered my 248 pearls last week, with every mission I could complete completed along the way. That's the issue here. I managed to gather only 12 weekly pearls in the first week since there was simply not enough time to gather more. Then the week changed on me while I was gathering pearls and I couldn't gather the first week pearls any more. However, reaching that 260 required gathering at least 24 weekly pearls in the first week and then completing every single mission after that. Other than the pearl cap preventing me from reaching the max tier, I've enjoyed Project R. The missions were well planned and

    Low tier keepers?

    Current keepers: T4: Kuma T5: Minekaze, ARP Kongo* Currently leveling: T4: Wyoming T5: Furutaka, Königsberg, Zuiho T6: Fuso, Mutsuki *Since ARP ships cannot be sold, ARP Kongo is an automatic keeper. However, it does make regular Kongo not be a keeper since it is effectively a Kongo with different kind of paint job.
  22. This is what Wikipedia says about the names of the H ships: The ships neither received names nor were official name proposals published. The names, which appear in several publications (Hindenburg, Friedrich der Große, Großdeutschland) are pure speculation. Especially the often mentioned Großdeutschland (= "Greater Germany") is highly unlikely, as Hitler always feared the loss of a vessel with name of Germany (compare the renaming of Deutschland to Lützow).[13]The only hint on the names of the units were given by Hitler himself, who mentioned during documented unofficial talks, that he would propose the names Ulrich von Hutten and Götz von Berlichingen for the ships, as these names are not connected with persons of the third Reich or the country itself, so the loss would not have a significant negative psychological and propaganda effect on the German people.[13][14] And the references 13 and 14 are: Picker, Henry (1965). Hitlers Tischgespräche im Führerhauptquartier. Stuttgart: Seewald. OCLC 73631668 Jochmann, Werner, ed. (1980). Adolf Hitler. Monologe im Führerhauptquartier 1941–1944. Hamburg: Albrecht Knaus. I voted "no" for Grossdeutchland, since per Wikipedia that name choice would have been unlikely.

    CV interface bugs and annoynces

    One more issue is that plane kills are worth too little xp, from CV's perspective. If you fight the other CV for the most of the game and achieve victories against that CV, that is poorly rewarded compared to what fighting surface ships is worth.
  24. Mainly because the first person to comment misunderstood it. The poll and title themselves were clear.
  25. So what are you trying to ask here in the poll? The class that is least frustrating when things don't go your way. I answered DDs, since DDs are fast and well concealed and generally have the biggest influence to the outcome of the battle when played well (possibly CVs have such influence as well, you'd have to ask that from someone who plays them well). Thus, you can avoid the frustration by not driving into the situation that gets you killed.
