1 Halloween Camo and 3 Zulu Signals compensation p.s. sorry, couldn't resist

Worst IJN gunboat build i've ever seen.

🤣🤣🤣

There are 2 possible reasons that makes sense, everything else is hogwash. incompetence malicious intent There can be NO other reason why this problem already exist for years and wasn't fixed yet. There is also no other logical reason why the game consumes more power in idle state (in port) than when you actually play the game. 'Solution': If you are in port and open the Armory the GPU load goes down to like 3%.

WG is using deep learning, a specialized AI software that analyses the behavior of the average human player and applies these skills to their bots, to give co-op players a most realistic gaming experience. That's why you also see border hugging bots, bots that ground and don't find the 'S' key, bots that push you out of your own smoke, and so on

The only reason why i would need more karma is to have more daily reports for all the sky rats and teammate vegetables out there. But then again, i'd need 500 reports per day and this won't happen, therefore karma is absolutely useless to me and i make sure to spend them (faster) as i receive them. I'm sure if karma could go into negatives, instead to go to 0 and then go up again, i'd be at least at -1k.

Because there is no dedicated mod request section and these things should be in the vanilla client to begin with, do i post this thread here and a forum mod can move it if necessary. 1. An option (probably carousel filter) to show only ships that have special upgrades mounted. Special upgrades are the speed boost, hydro duration and so on. It really sucks to search through 100+ ships to find an unused upgrade to demount and often ending up buying a new one for coal in the armory when it is not necessary. A filter option would be awesome. 2. The option to mount/demount a flag (flag, not a signal!) on all ships. Especially with the ranked eco flag it's a pain in the bu** to mount this flag over and over again. Same for other flags for cosmetic/brag reasons (i.e. Jolly Roger) to mount on all ship or remove it again. Just a nice QoL feature that should be in the game client just like it was recently added for signals. 3. WG suggestion only - why don't the unique upgrades have the ship name on it that people know for what ship the upgrade is? Back in the day when there were only a hand full of unique upgrades it was easy to remember, but now all tier 10's have one and it only shows the stats but not for what ship it is. Is it really that hard to add the damn ship name in the title or the tooltip?

Take Zao, play co-op, push straight through the middle and torp the first bot BB in range in the face. Took me one game to complete this mission.

So much this!

We can not tell you, it's secret.

The reason why WoWs is a lot less enjoyable for me than it used to be are games like this one that happen way too often. First game of the day… Let's check the lineup ... hmm okay, enemy team has 3 high tier radar cruiser to support their DD and i (in a DD) have what? oookay, a stock tier 8 cruiser. Hmpf, a 3 Bismarck division, i think we all know where this is going … But let them give the benefit of the doubt, maybe they surprise me. Oh man, 4 minutes in, CV is still afk … Let's see how the team did … Our CV has pretty lousy XP. Okay he was afk for about 5 minutes but was this the only reason? Any questions?!

I've recently finished the Z-52 legendary grind and it took me only about 2 years (okay, i haven't played this ship for more than a year) During the grind i've noticed a few things. While the ship really is in need of a heal or something else to make it more survivable, it is actually playable most of the time if played as a pure gunboat. The ridiculous amount of radar and CVs give it a hard time though. Here are my solo stats from the last 21 days of the recent grind. While the stats look okay for an average Joe like myself, they are really not nearly as high as they should be for a solo DD main. The reason is very obvious on first glance when you look at the number to the right, which is the average planes killed per battle. Now that i have unlocked the legendary upgrade i consider to change the build and play the ship completely different. Screw objectives, screw knife fighting other DDs and play the Z-52 like a cruiser from range and only go for pure damage. For this i'll like to try out 2 different builds: Build one and build two and wonder how much it will suck.

You know, like what is the most used, the least used. Which one is researched the most, which the hardest to get. Obviously i talk about ship classes and nations and exclude the special emblems like collectors, ranked/CB, ST/CC/KotS and so on. BTW, the European Fleet Elite Forces is really ugly compared to all other emblems. That red color does not fit in there at all. How about a color change, maybe gold or bronze.

There is an addon that takes care of it. It's in Aslains and no idea if it is in Modstation as well, its name is Stingy by Default.

For what? Not having 3k base xp on a loss? Games like this are just heartbreaking and extremely frustrating.

I never understood why people play a video game and then want the AI to play the game for them?! Secondaries require zero skill or any other contribution other than to click on a ship, if manual secondaries are skilled. That's just plain dumb IMO. Also, if a target get unspotted the secondary target selection should clear so the player has to manually set a target again. Imagine this braindead mechanic to click on a DD ONCE and the AI will from this moment on attack this target whenever it is detected and in range without the player has to do anything, not even have the ship guns turned it this direction. Perhaps secondaries should work like torpedo tubes, only fire in the exact same direction as the main guns are aimed at. Thinking about this, Subs with homing torpedoes to nuke the crap out of BBs is maybe not so bad after all. Let the AI guide the torpedo into the BB, as opposed to player prediction, because it's soooo much fun, eh?!

There are days where i'm not allowed to win any games

I don't like ranked really. I've reached rank 1 five times in the past to get the reward ships, which are now pretty much freely obtainable for everyone in the armory and both, Flint as well as Black, suck hard because powercreep. And since i have only 2 ranked token (used 3 when they were introduced to buy the Flint camo), but need 3 to buy the upgraded perma camo for Black, i've decided to give it a try. I started in high ranks and reached rank 5 pretty painless in 70 games with a 62% WR or something like this. But then teams got extremely bad and i've bounced between 5.0 and 5.4 for about 30 games before i decided to quit. The level of trash gameplay at rank 5 in unbelievable. AFKs left, right and center, suicider, camoless & flagless ships, DDs without SE and LS and the list goes on and on. I've had games that weren't even 3 minutes old and 3 ships on my team were dead. This was even worse than random battles, because in randoms a decent player can carry a team every now and then, but these ranked team are impossible to carry. I'm DD main, which means it's also pretty much impossible to keep a star on a loss. Ranked just become more and more a crapshow and is no fun at all anymore. It used to be good years ago, but those were the good ol' times. I expect the announced ranked system overhaul will suck even more, so yet another thing of the game that drives old schooler away.

Oh come on, don't give them ideas!

As your nearly 5'000 forum post and more than 20'000 battles played clearly show. Imagine that there are people who don't watch TV anymore but shifted to internet streams as an alternative way of entertainment. What a crazy world we live in, eh?!
