    Bastion Poll 2.0

    Much better. Thank you _FTD_.

    Bastion poll! Remove it yes or no?

    I played the mode. No matter how much you dislike it but my vote therefore counts as much as yours. Ridiculing someone is an argument of the poor.

    If the simplicity was the only reason there would be no justification to attack the voters with low or no experience in the mode by openly dismissing their opinion. In that case any vote should just be viewed as a vote and no form of weight should be applied to it. Even more so if he believes that the vote has no effect in the end result in regards to Wargamings reaction. He could have made it an anonymous vote only thread.

    Bastion poll! Remove it yes or no?

    Yet a generic poll for the removal for the removal sake is fine? Anyway... I now see that the thread starter is not really interested in arguing about this. There is a fixed point of view by the OP and the thread was not created to discuss other ways to deal with this gamemode, as the OP is not open to such ideas anymore.

    And so did I. I'm all for changing the mode. I already wrote that there are some argumetns I could get behind. Removing it completly is still a bad idea.

    I did. But my posts have already been deemed "questionable". I could add more depth to it in regards to the mode specifically. Maybe that I have seen more teamplay in them then in all other modes. With plenty of communication to organize. But that still doesn't change the fact that my vote is already deemed "unworthy" by the one who created the poll, as I do not play tiers VIII and IX on the life server.

    Lack of experience is not completly irrelevant. But when it is used only as an argument to completly dismiss those votes right away then such a comment has no worth. Those votes can be made for any kind of reason. If you dismiss votes of people who you deem unqualified you can remove the poll right away. It would be just like removing almost all votes from a public government election because most people are not active in politics and have therefore no idea what it is about. Edit: And it's not like users didn't have chances to come into contact with that mode on the test server. Stats that do not show on the profile.

    Prime example why stats should not be public. You don't get the clear result you hoped for and now try to dismiss the opinion of the "no" voters. Mine will go back to private once the ST application procedure is over with (independent of success or failure), so that stat trolls like you will be back fishing in the dark.
  9. That depends on the government official that is handling the tax report / investigation. They could tax it with a value of equal or similar items. So they could, just for this example, tax it with the value if a Tirpitz. It is usual up to their discretion if they want to go that far or not.

    Why bother... post removed

    Übersetzungen/ Deutsche Ingame Anweisungen

    Dies gilt für den dritten und vierten Missionsteil. Die Schritte eins bis drei können mit jedem Schiffstyp gespielt werden. Teil eins sogar wirklich mit jedem Schiff.

    It is still essentially the same. Even if you don't pit two modes against each other in a single poll, you simply create two different ones each asking for one of the remaining modes to be removed. Those would still be as absolute as the one created here. They wouldn't even have to be created at the same time. Change the mode. Make an argument to turn it into something better instead. Be constructive instead of destructive.

    But where would that stop? I can tell you. It would end in the one gamemode the majority of the community can agree to no dislike. Even if you only have two modes, then one is almost guaranteed to be disliked by more people then the other.

    Mmmmh... then we have a very different experience with that game mode. I had battles that lasted the full twenty minutes or at least came close to it. I could agree that the point income could be reduced somewhat. That would be a base I could argue on. I would even make the same argument for both Domination and Epicenter. As those also can be won very fast if the cap points are dominated by one side.
  15. Egoleter

    Bastion poll! Remove it yes or no?

    Doesn't change a thing about my main argument. How about you instead suggest changes to make it better? Because I am still allowed to have an opinion. You are not allowed to deny me that. I have encountered the game mode often enough and found nothing wrong with it.
  16. Egoleter

    Bastion poll! Remove it yes or no?

    I said it before and I'll say it again. Removing content does not make a game better. Just because you don't like the game mode, it doesn't mean that nobody else likes it.

    Supertest is Opening the Gates

    Hotel California. Nice song. And a nice attempt to hide that last, but very important, line of "con"text. (Yes, pun intented)
  18. Spanish and french also mention cruisers only, so I guess the german one is wrong.
  19. Ok... I'm currently dying here... I knew it sounded to good to be true. So mission part four might still be managable somehow. You just need to kill those enemy cruisers faster then the BB right next to you. But now even the Kraken for part five has to be done in a cruiser. So it becomes just another grinding tour of pure luck for both these parts. Just like it was with the last two mission sets

    One on One - Battleship vs Cruiser

    For starters you should know which cruisers have torpedos. Hope is clearly the wrong way to approach this. That said: Doesn't matter if there are torps or not. Engage and destroy. With a little help from your WASD keys even torpedos do not pose much of a thread. A single BB versus a single CA/CL, with equally skilled players, is an almost assured victory for the BB.
  21. There might be some aspects we do not know about yet (tiers and ship restrictions). I wouldn't celebrate until we get the full mission description on the front page. That we need yet another Kraken for the final part is for sure not a good choice.
  22. A torpedo can pass below the aft deck of some ships. That's not a bug or cheat. It is simply that the ships are not massive blocks below the waterline. Sometimes torps are not yet armed when they collide with a ship. At that point the torp will not do any damage. And the last possible case. Wrong observation. The way torps are displayed it can appear in your view as if a torp passes through a ship while in fact it missed. If you had watched with a heightend viewpoint you would have seen the difference. In an almost two-dimensional view barely above the waterline perspective can sometimes be decieving.
  23. Sounds fair. But I guess, even with a build in auto-detonation, some users would still want to buy and play it.
  24. I saw a documentary about those once. Can't remember when and where. I do remember that those things were considered deathtraps for the observers who 'piloted' them, even when no enemy was around to shoot at them.

    Mikasa/Pre-Dreadnought Appreciation Fleet

    If I ever get the chance to get to Japan, I'll remember this. As my travel plans would involve at least a three week tour from north to south, between end of March and mid April, I'm sure I could make room for a few museum visits.
