RANKED and skills of peoples there...
ThePurpleSmurf replied to remenberMYname's topic in General Discussion
See, this is what i don't understand. You played 38 ranked games in season 12 and then quit and here you say it is too grindy and for job seekers. In the last 21 days (which overlaps with ranked) you also played an additional 140 random games. So how is 38 ranked games grinding for job seekers when 140 random games is just what, a hobby? -
RANKED and skills of peoples there...
ThePurpleSmurf replied to remenberMYname's topic in General Discussion
Let's see … Those are your 30 most played ships and there is really one that sticks out. I wonder what the class and the patch number have to do with it. And by coincidence this is the ship that brute forced you to rank 1. Especially interesting are the numbers of your tier 10 ships. In case if you want to check it with your own eyes but don't know where: https://wows-numbers.com/player/554085776,Milan_G_/ -
This ship is in the game for a very long time and most videos about it are very old as well. It used to be a pile of crap but it got some significant buffs not long ago and if played right it is actually a very strong BB for its tier.

What Were Your Greatest Gaming Achievements Today ?
ThePurpleSmurf replied to Hanszeehock's topic in General Discussion
It wasn't today but who cares. It was a sunny day on Sea of Furtune for a ranked game. A Wooster, a enemy DM and 3 enemy DD went into A/B cap … the rest is history 2850 base XP -
We already know what WG is going to say about this season. It will be the same like every season: 'This has been the most successful season so far'

To be honest i'm not sure if you should be the one to talk about skill in ranked. You ranked out with a 46% WR and all your PR is in the deeeeeep reds. The only reason why you ranked out is that you spammed CV games with a below average PR which is apparently enough to reach rank 1 this season. This in a nutshell tells a lot about the ranked system and how bad it is.- 113 replies

Ranked Camos need a serious buff. About 2-3 years ago these camos were top notch because they were the only ones, beside the 50 doubloon camos, to give +100% XP. But times changed and we get thrown camos at us with dual and triple stats and even the cheapest camos that everyone get for little to no effort outshine the ranked camo by a mile. The ranked camo is supposed to be a reward for achieving rank 1 but they are hardly more worth than the default 22k credits camos,. Please give the ranked camo at least the usual dual or triple stats like every other free available camo has by default nowadays. You neutered ranked rewards by so much, like 1-2 years ago we got three times the flags, 100 instead of 50 camos, 3500 doubloons, now it's 2500 doubloons. At least make the reward camo worthwhile and not just another dust collecting useless pile of pixels in the inventory.

The report system is trash. I watch a lot of streams and pretty much every streamer who has more than 30 viewer can be seen to abuse the report system live on stream. When they are not happy with how someone plays the game they report for chat misbehavior instead of plays poorly. They do this because by now it is known that this is the only report that actually does something. While i'm toxic af at times and got many chat bans that were deserved, i also got several that weren't. For example did i get one for single handedly kill a 3-player division from a very well known unicum clan and commented in chat, if i deserve a XP bonus for killing a strong div like this. When i returned to port after the game i was chat banned and got reported 9 times. Apparently these sore losers convinced their team mates to report me as well. The whole report system should be removed or have a serious overhaul, because right nowe it can (and is) abused and the abuser don't have to fear any consequences.

Super Container Loot Thread [ topics merged ]
ThePurpleSmurf replied to ThePurpleSmurf's topic in General Discussion
Between my last post and now i got a couple of SCs. Don't remember exactly how many and what it was. The ones i remember: - 50 Restless Fire - 25 Oroboro or what the name is - 100 Deto flags - 100 Deto flags - 50 Ocean Soul -
This POS feels like you have zero influence on the game at all, leave alone to carry a game. Takes massive damage, got an absurd detection range, abysmal reload time, AP shell take double as long as HE to travel to the target. This ship is just garbage and I really do not understand why WG makes these mid-tier ship, especially cruisers, so extremely unfun to play. I have only 100k free XP saved up but I'm so tempted to sacrifice all my free XP to Hipper just to get rid of this POS Yorck. /rant p.s. And NO, it is not just me. Look at different well known players that are considered superunicums, such as Flamu. Even he has a below 50% WR and an abysmal average damage in this POS ship and this says a lot. Recently he made a review of the Eugen/Hipper, which is about 300% better than Yorck and even the Eugen/Hipper is crap to him too.

Watch a Stream – Receive a Free Container! - Discussion Thread
ThePurpleSmurf replied to The_EURL_Guy's topic in News & Announcements
Hmm, i'm not so sure about this anymore. I have linked my NA and EU account to my Twitch account. It took almost 3 days before i received any twitch container. Here is the concerning thing. I have received 3 twitch container on NA yesterday but i have not received any containers on EU. Both region accounts are linked to the same Twitch account, Twitch drop obviously works because i received containers on NA. So what happened to the EU containers? -
Watch a Stream – Receive a Free Container! - Discussion Thread
ThePurpleSmurf replied to The_EURL_Guy's topic in News & Announcements
The news clearly state start 18:00 CET (UTC+1) which is in a little more than 1 hour after this post. So if you watch twitch all day before 18:00 CET and get no drop.. well ;) -
Watch a Stream – Receive a Free Container! - Discussion Thread
ThePurpleSmurf replied to The_EURL_Guy's topic in News & Announcements
@MrConway I've asked this a while ago on reddit when Femennenly posted the first time about the twitch drops but sadly i got no answer. If we have an EU and NA account, can we link the same twitch account to these accounts to receive the drop once per region or will the drop be awarded once per twitch account and will be randomly assigned to NA or EU? This random factor is why i did not link both accounts to the same twitch account. Or as simplified question: do we need a seperate twitch account per region to receive a twitch drop. -
Today seem to be a special day. I got mine on EU but i did not get it on NA. So it seems to be not a regional thing. Interesting way to punk out on the premium container :D

This is probably the single most stupid statement i have EVER read in this forums.

If BBs have problems with DD torps, maybe they start to use the tools that are in the game since ages but the BB players refuse to use them?! Vigilance and Target Acquisition System Modification 1 come to mind.

Help me understand how Main Battery Hit Ratio is calculated
ThePurpleSmurf replied to ThePurpleSmurf's topic in General Discussion
Thanks for your replies guys. So it seem to be really that easy that only direct hits that generate ribbons count as MBHR. -
Help me understand how Main Battery Hit Ratio is calculated
ThePurpleSmurf posted a topic in General Discussion
Well, i'm a noob because i'm approaching 8k battles and i have no idea how the MBHR is actually calculated. Let's take the Harugumo as example, just for the fact that she has 10 guns, this makes math easier. So, if i fire all 10 guns at a ship and all 10 shells hit and deal damage, it should count as 100% MBHR. If i park behind an island and can only get 4 guns on my target and fire a full salvo (doubleclick), 6 shells will hit the island and 4 shells will go toward the target. The maximum MBHR i can get from this salvo is 40%, because 60% (6 shells) left the barrels but hit the island. So far so good and easy to understand, but now comes the part i have no idea about. What about these 4 shells, what does count toward the MBHR? 3 shells hit and deal damage and one shell falls short into the water = 30%? or 40% because potential damage proximity counts too? All 4 shells shatter on the broadside belt and deal zero damage = 0% despite 4 hits or 40% because 4 shatter ribbons? All 4 HE shell miss but splash damage ignite a fire. 40% proximity or 0% because all shells missed despite damage is dealt through fire or 10% because no hits but one fire ribbon? There are more confusing scenarios. Anyone know what exactly count toward the MBHR? Yeah, it's not an important topic but i'm just curious and it bugs me that i don't know how it actually works. -

What's the most Karma you've had?
ThePurpleSmurf replied to Captain_KriegWurst's topic in General Discussion
This happens to me about 3 to 5 times per day. My highest was maybe 15. This ranked season was special, because i was only 5 or 6 times chat banned which must be a new ranked record for me. But people report for every crap, because the whole report system is a pile of useless doggy poo you know. -
Super Container Loot Thread [ topics merged ]
ThePurpleSmurf replied to ThePurpleSmurf's topic in General Discussion
Oh this thread is still alive and active, nice. Just a few more days and it's the 2nd anniversary where we got Supercontainer added into the game. -
This season introduced a new (and ugly af) Jolly Roger flag and it was said that this season will be the last season where JR is obtainable. Is the new (and ugly af) Jolly Roger the only flag we get or will WG still award Jolly Roger III this season? p.s. have i mentioned how fugly the new JR is? Whoever thought this balloonhead abomination would be a nice award for reaching rank 1 should be slapped with a dead cat and be forced to eat 5 cans Surströmming at once!
-
Yeah i did the same for the JR3, but i fear it was a waste of time, oh well.
-
OP is right, i hate it too when there are so many DDs. Mostly because i'm a DD main and i hate it when other DDs steal all my juicy BB targets and farm the damage that belongs to my torps and HE shells. My dream MM looks like this: 8 BB per, 3 Cruiser without radar and 1 DD. 200k average damage here i come. ^^
