If you got compensated within the new system you could try to use it as an extra source of income. Just shortly before your team wins, you search a still fighting friendly ships and see that you position yourself in such a way that he has to damage you (with either guns or torps). You get a bonus and your teammate gets less. Troll exploit achieved.

Don't worry, I didn't interpret your post that way. That comment was completly aimed at myself as I was starting to doubt my own intelligence.

Ok... so I am not completly stupid. I still wonder how a negative change of 100 % or more for ammunition costs is possible. Only explanation I have for that that there is a baseline which is used for the calculation that I do not know about. That's what is confusing me the most. What I also would like to see is a table of economy changes in regards to survival rate. We now have numbers for the overall change. How are better players affected on those seperate values and how the bad ones. That is actually what I am most interested in and what this table is telling us nothing about.

I'm a bit confused here. Could someone please explain to me how I am supposed to read those numbers?

You know, ammattimies... I could respond to your hostile and unconstructive comment in just the same way. I could but I will not. I made a suggestion and I am open to a discussion about the ups and downs of that suggestion. I'm not fixated on any details and I don't make personal judgements if someone is against a specific detail. If you have a constructive detail to add, please do. Veiled insults and tough words will get you nowhere. Sorry, not correct. They will get you onto my ignore list. No one deserves to be insulted or to be shot at by his own teammates. Wargaming clearly says so in their terms of use for the game. Terms you agreed to. If you act against those terms it is in Wargamings right to do anything they want to your account. You agreed to that as well. You do not own anything here, no matter how much money you paid for it. The moment Wargaming decides to shut your account down, or to block you from some of its content, they can do just that while you can only sit an watch. If a player is repeatedly toxic to the well being of the game as Wargaming envisions it, by being insulting or otherwise breaking the rules, they can wipe an account clean or block it for all eternity. It is in their best interest to keep such elements from having to much influence on the community. Because if such elements get there, the rest of the player base will leave. The game will not sustain itself on the toxic players alone. Better to have a small scale loss by punishing a few, then losing everything. Some players only learn if they are actually punished. A pink color and reflected damage is not actual punishment. It's a nuisance. Toughen up it's the internet is only a poor mans excuse for his own bad behavior and failings at social interaction on that medium.

Of course. They are only suggestions and in no way meant to be as my final word on it. I'd still consider those items of a lesser value then a permanent account ban.

That is normal for almost any game support. I had the luck to get a single reply from WoWs support, I don't know if the support tech was just very generous that day or if something else went wrong, where I got confirmation that a user has been banned for violating the rules. They usually do not do that but at that moment I knew that I can send them tickets that way and that they will be taken serious. [edited] - rest of the post was off-topic RogDodgeUK

I can confirm that WoWs reports about chat behavior and similar things were acted upon by the support staff in the past, even though I marked those checkboxes.

Noticed the same as 0BlackSkull0. Seems to be a bug that the marking remains. I noticed it remaining on a dead ship after I selected another one.

I like the cat in the loading screen. I need to explore the map a bit more, but so far it looks good and performs well. Edit: I really like the moving cars, forklift, and windmill on the island in F4.

I agree with the others who posted that the 37k necessary experience for the third crate is to much. 2000 for the first crate is fine. I'd say it might even be a little bit to low. A raise to 2500 or even 3000 would be fine. 12500 for the second container is right in the upper region of what I'd say is acceptable, which is between 10000 and 12500. 37000 for the third one is to much. Between 25000 and 30000 would feel a lot better and would still be high. 37000 also has the feeling of a randomly picked number because you had to come up with something.

It might not sound like I do, when I critizise Wargaming, but I actually also believe that the CMs want to do better. I'm not even sure if it is them who are responsible for most of these fiascos. I have worked with CMs on other online-game forums but I have never seen another group of CMs that is in constant defensive mode. For the whole time that I am part of this games community I have never seen them do something else then to apologize for mistakes. If all of those mistakes where on their shoulders, they would have actually learned nothing the whole time. It is hard to believe that. I am more convinced that most of these mistakes come from other sources higher up in the food chain. Pretty much anything that is an event can probably be attributed to the marketing team. Other stuff seems to be financial or simply ego driven (which hints at the boss level). I believe them if they say that they are not satisfied with a situation either. But even if that is the case, if they didn't manage to evoke some positive change, noticable by the disturbed community, it is still upon their shoulders. Their responsibility. They are our link to the rest of the company. They have to be ambassadors for both sides, instead of doing that job for Wargaming only, as it currently appears to be from our point of view. Come on Tuccy, Cynd3r, or Mr Conway... how far am I from the truth?

Link it in the launcher and more people will take notice. Removing it, or moving it to an even less visited place, is the wrong approach.

How many times did we tell you that better communication is needed? And then you start hiding expected events? I'm sorry but the logic behind that eludes me.

The event calender will no longer be posted on the frontpage. German forum got a posting for the October events. For the future it will always be posted to the forums. (We all know how well informing the forum community worked in the past. It usually didn't.) http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/64046-der-event-kalender-fuer-den-oktober/ Here is the short form: 12. October 7:00 Uhr CEST - 19. October 7:00 Uhr CEST: "Boot Camp - Unleash the Kraken!" Same Boot Camp missions as always, 15. October 8:00 Uhr CEST - 18. October 7:00 Uhr CEST: Weekendspecial: German fleet Equivalent to the recent american fleet event. Double XP for first victory, a few cheaper ships and some mission. 19. October 7:00 Uhr CEST - 26. October 7:00 Uhr CEST: "Boot Camp: Best of its Class!" 22. October 7:00 Uhr CEST - 25. October 7:00 Uhr CEST: Weekendspecial: Japanese fleet Equivalent to the recent american fleet event. Double XP for first victory, a few cheaper ships and some mission. 26. October 7:00 Uhr CEST - 2. November 6:00 Uhr CET: "Boot Camp: Hit the Enemy Citadel!" 29. October 7:00 Uhr CEST - 1. November 6:00 Uhr CET: Weekendspecial: Soviet fleet Equivalent to the recent american fleet event. Double XP for first victory, a few cheaper ships and some mission. That's all there is for this month.

I had such comments once or twice. I can't exactly remember. I take it as a form of compliment and then move on, usually immediatly forgetting the poor player who had to resort to unfounded accusations to comfort himself.

Why should they have any effect on each other? Papa Papa only adds to your amount of free XP earned (and the screenshot looks like it worked perfectly) The Dragon flag only applies to captain XP (and again the screeshot shows it worked) Edit: Ninja'd

The September calender has finally been taken from the frontpage. Let us see how long it will take for the new one (November ) to be pushed online.

I finally broke through the Rank 10 wall. I'm in the single digits. Now my weekend finally begins. I'll be back on monday.

Well... I had the opposite in a ranked battle. One cruiser and one battleship with the rest being destroyers. But I agree: There are a lot of BBs in the game currently.

Hey but they did manage to send me a mail to remind me that I could spend my doubloons.

Why, just why, am I getting teamed up with idiots as soon as I reach rank 10. Just now I have been killed by second line torpedos launched into my path while I was dodging enemy torps. With no chance for those second line torps to reach the enemy who drove into cover but perfectly aimed to sink me. I just can't advance beyond this rank. I can play the games of my life, sink half the enemy team or more on my own and my team still manages to get annihilated the moment they make contact. Or they run away in panic as soon as a red contact shows up on the minimap. Shouldn't players at these ranks have at least a little bit of gaming experience?

Yes, my team was really bad in that battle. Achieving a high caliber in a DD only to see your team evaporate around you is a bit disheartening. Will I ever advance into the single digits?

Thank you. I did my best to stay away from you, and made the rest of your team my main target, yet you still managed to hit me a few times. Better luck with your team next time.

If I had noticed the number of kills you already had, I would have left that last Benson for you as well, so you could get a Kraken. Edit: And now I met Hanszeehock in the opposing team. My team won, but it's been a close one.
