    Changes to ★ Economy

    Credit earnings are damage based. XP is based on general performance, such as capping, killing targets, shooting down planes, and so on.

    Account transfer no longer a no-go

    Nothing that WG does is ever easy or make much sense. "provide proof of your location" to transfer an account? Because this is the only reason why someone plays in a different region, right WG? It can't be that you have family living abroad and you want to share some time with them on their server/region. It's also not possible that someone works at odd times and the home server is asleep or dead at times when playing is possible and this is why someone plays on a different server, to not be the only active one at that time of the day. Oh wait, this is exactly the reason why i have an NA account beside my EU account. Transferring an account is only a difficult and complex process because you, WG, coded it in a shitty way from the start. There are so many games out there where adding stuff to the account is a matter of seconds. Switching server can be automated within seconds to minutes by the player themselves. Ever updated/patched in Warframe? You do this while you are online playing, restart the client and boom, updated. Not downloading GBs of files and then have to wait 25 minutes for the update process to finish. Could it be that your programmers are still coding after some 1980's programming guidelines? Maybe time to modernize your infrastructure to become more dynamic, more flexible, more USERFRIENDLY.

    Jerky gameplay

    You rock a CPU from 2007, and it wasn't even good back then either, combined with a low budget mobile graphics chip. What did you expect would be the outcome? Maybe it's time for an upgrade. I mean, you can get computers on the used market for literally 20 bucks (complete computer with everything) that outperforms your setup by at least double.

    Current ranked popularity

    Let me answer your question with two of many screenshots of "team mates" i had in the current ongoing Bronze sprint. Also pay attention to the battle distribution, the average numbers and stats like contribution to caps and so on … Example 1 Example 2
  8. No it isn't. There is actually really expensive hardware to win for most eggs combined over both sprints.
  9. Do I have to put it into the USB 3 port? It's the same blue color, so I assume it's color-coded for dummies.
  10. Straight to the point … Anyone ever got a SC from the TYL container from the daily login reward or is this not possible? If i reset a ship line for the x2 RB bonus but do not research the line yet and the new RB "season" starts, will the new x2 bonus be available for the previously reset line after i research it? Example to illustrate it maybe more clear: today i reset the line with x2 bonus but do not research the line, tomorrow the new x2 bonus starts, i research the line tomorrow when the new bonus is active - will the new x2 bonus (for a combined x4 bonus) be available for this line or is it only available for lines (TX ship) that already exist before the new bonus started. I suspect that it doesn't matter but then again, it's WG we talk about here. Cheers!

    Goodbye KotS..?

    Why go to a stadium, you don't play pro ball yourself?! Why do you watch TV, you're not an actor yourself?! Why watch olympics, you are not an athlete yourself?! See how "not so smart" your question is?!
  12. Me neither and never heard anyone mention it, that's why i'm curious. Then this should work: today IJN line reset but don't research, tomorrow bonus reset, tomorrow IJN line research (x2), reset same IJN line, research IJN line (x4) Okay cool, thanks.

    State of the (weekend) game

    Enjoy it while it lasts. It's just a matter of time before Subs will the shoehorned into Ranked and then there is still the odd tier games where once CVs were and at some point will return for sure, so that we have CVs at all tiers, not just 6/8/10/11.
  14. Gryf - we just have the same interests, such as idling in port and not wanna join Random battles because of the team that we are potentially will end up with. Instead we enjoy the beautiful Black Hole port view and the slow loading Armory. Occasionally we check the Inventory or the Profile tab, where we look at the legacy Ranked summary and indulge in reminiscences. UPDATE @surfer_gr 51'000 battles?! WTF
  15. This doesn't mean that updates did not change how they work and behave. It happens all the time that updates introduce bugs and unwanted behavior. If you want to track down the problem you have to test different settings and create different environments to see if something changes. Same goes for mods for games or how the game is run (fullscreen, windowed fullscreen, borderless windowed, and so on). Other potential troublemaker are "game booster mode" promises that many tool have and Windows itself has a Game Mode settings that is supposed to manage background activity during gaming session but all these tools usually cause more bad than good. But again, "game stutters" is one of those problems that is extremely hard to track down. Could be a combination of drivers from different hardware, could be heat issues, could be CPU related, could be mods, settings, RAM timings, could be anything really. What it usually not is, is a too weak hardware. And while your setup is a bit outdated to nowadays hardware standards, it is still plenty strong to run modern titles at 1080p - and WoWs runs on a stone-age old engine, no challenge for your setup (hardware-wise).

    Easter egs as resourse for rewards.

    This! It was said on stream that they didn't add it ingame because it would confuse most players, because they can not exchange the tokens/eggs. You have to check the amount on the website. They also will not reset, means that both "sprints" will count separately but the amount in the news will be the combined. This can be a bit confusing too, but then again, simply play the game and don't care about it and in 2 weeks you log in and get a bunch of stuff added to the account. The rewards for the token/eggs are minor, not worth to get a headache over it. More important is to participate at all, because this will add you to the pool of players for the randomly drawn rewards, which are significant (for the winners).

    Super CV's

    These ships are pathetic! I've watched a few hours of streams (several streamers) where they played nothing but CV United States and all of them averaged -AVERAGED!!- 300k games. Close to or above 400k did also happen and just 3 minutes ago Bison (NA CC plays also on EU) had a 4k base XP game with 380k+ again. Also many unicums and superunicums from well known clans agree, that the new super CVs are worse than RTS ever was and these ships are overpowered just like back the first 2 weeks of the glorious CV rework. High tiers went to S H I T with this addition. Why is WG so obsessed with destroying this game? I don't understand it.
  18. Might wanna ask Google about parked cpu cores, how to check it and how to unpark them. Microstutters every few seconds sounds very much like it. Also background apps can be an issue, especially firewall, anti-virus apps or VPN. It's hard to give you precise help, because the description is not very detailed and problems like this usually take a direct inspection on the machine itself. What you can rule out is that it the game itself because if this would be the issue, a lot more, if not everyone, would have this problem. The problem is 100% local and your machine. Perhaps not fully compatible hardware, perhaps wrongly configures settings in BIOS/UEFI, and so on. As i said, hard to diagnose this from afar.

    Lies again.

    Absolutely nothing went wrong. WG sends these mains for months now and ALWAYS this gift refers to the button in the patch notes that give you 1 day of premium time. It even states it very clearly in the email, that this gift is in the patch news and that you get 1 day of premium time. This user is just blind and can not read, nor think. All he saw was 1 day premium time and the collect gift button, that directs you to the, in the email mentioned, patch news. This thread is the result of A) can not properly read B) ignoring the fact that this person got this mail in the past for months now C) lacks common sense to re-read the mail if the "collect" did not work D) likes to make a fool out of themselves.

    Lies again.

    Let me guess, your most played ship is a German BB and you also love to play Shima?!

    Do we have skill based MM or not?

    I'm convinced that we have it because all fruits, vegetables and knucklewalker are always on my team.

    Super Container Loot Thread [ topics merged ]

    On NA TYL I have so many of this type of camo (triple 75% or these lower secondary stats) that i use them in Co-op for daily win farming if i don't wanna deal with the random bullcrap, which happens A LOT in the last months.
  23. Have seen many of these on several Twitch streams. Usually it's a CV and 1-2 BB, but 4-5 DD plus 2 Subs seem to be the norm now for every game at high tiers. And 9 out of 10 games are steamrolls as well.
  24. I had a Gearing game where i hit a Sub with 11 charges and this bugger was still alive. Yeah right, not-suck against Subs. Subs can just walk through the middle of the map and there is nothing you can do about it. Radar doesn't spot them, hydro only at certain depth and when they are extremely close. Proxi spotting, nope. And even if you spot one as DD, try to deal with it while you are also spotted and the whole enemy team shoots at you. They are a pain in the arse, period! Also try to hunt down and kill a Sub with Groningen or Halland. The forward rocket-launcher thingy is nice to look at, but killing a Sub with it is impossible. Sub are double the cancer that CVs already are. And now we have this HIV-cancer, which is the SuperCV. This game is a shadow of its former self and 9 out of 10 games are zero fun, no matter of the result. It's because WG tries to shoehorn everything into Randoms instead to create new fun game modes and put the Sub and CVs into these. For a while Ranked was a safe haven, where we could have normal games, but they also destroyed this. 5 vs 5 with CVs and soon for sure also with subs, my arse.

    Subs CANNOT be countered. Here's PROOF.

    Clicked the battle button?! Just a guess, because i didn't watch the video. 3rd party cookies are blocked, hence no embedded video for me.
