It's time for a little update And this one is a bonus especially for @Negativvv

Todays Fletcher games. If I'd post screenshot of the minimap of some of the battle situations people would still say 'naaah, it's not the team. must be your own fault, because you are the only constant in all these losses'. This game pisses me off more and more with every day, because the level of complete lack of logical thinking or thinking at all of the average WoWs player is just mind boggling. It's hard to believe that most of these people have a job and a family. I'd assume they live of picking up empty bottles and catch fish with a pantyhose in some sewer.

I think i have a clue what comes after WoWs

3 games played today, 3 random solo queue. 1792 base XP, 1611 base XP, 1819 base XP. So, what other games are worth looking at? I do not like shooters and due to RL commitments and awkward working times i need something that can be done mostly solo.

You might read the patch notes first, then ask. And by patch notes i mean the official WG patch notes, not the modpack notes.

@_Helmut_Kohl_ edited the post above? Well, reading was not hard, but i haven't noticed that you posted this on a previous page. The thread i was referring to is actually in the NA forums and was posted there already a few days before you posted it here.

My last tier 10 battle, which we lost, had the usual A line camper on map Loop and -oh wonder- it was a Tirpitz. This guy fired only HE at targets further away than 22km and did not leave the A line once since game start. So i checked his stats and… well … So you think, okay he is 'not so good', let's see what he plays usually, as tier 10 seem not to be the right place for him. Like really?!? Only Tier 1's, 1253 games in Black Swan and then of course a Tirpitz with 2076 games. Look at his average damage and main battery hit ratio. Seriously WG, this has to be looked at, because it is a real problem for a lot of players. Players like this guy ruin the high tier gaming experience for EVERY team they join, because this is pretty much -1 BB right from the start. I get it, you love potatoes and want to make them happy too, but in my opinion you love the potatoes too much and ignore the other players who like to enjoy the game on a bit high level.

Actually it's supposed to be released today or for the Weekend sale tomorrow. I've read this in some thread.

Of course it's a BB. Why would it be anything else?

The server can handle some more TOXIC players.

This was pretty funny. Both guys beached at this tip of the island, tried to shoot at each other (all shells went into the island) but nobody wanted to go around the island for obvious reasons. Benson was afraid he get deleted by BB AP and the Bismarck didn't want to eat torps. After about a minute our Benson finally grew some balls after the Bismarck fired his guns, but instead to torp him he just rammed the BB to end the game.

An ELO rating system. It works for a wide spectrum of sports, it works for chess, it work for countless online games. This is why there is an ELO system, this is why rating systems like this work for a long time already. The ELO system is a long time established measure system for a persons skill in a game or sports. WG just does not care about this stuff, as long as the money get thrown at them. And i do not suggest an extremely strict rating system to block out players entirely, but players like the example above do clearly not belong into high tier battles and a solution has to be found.

Nonsense! This could be fixed very easily with a proper matchmaking system that take a personal rating into account.

Although i have the impression that suggestion are ignored completely, is here a short list of small QoL improvements. make the font-size for ship names on the minimap customizable add the option to select different colors for the circles on the minimap add the option to hide by default the ship names and only show the names when pressing ALT key. Right now there is a similar function available but this require the adaptive user interface which hide the ship health bars and name on the battlefield. This is a stupid solution! Much better: full alternate user interface to show health bars, names permanently but hide the ship names on the minimap, press ALT to show the ship names. Addons can do this since forever, but WG once again struggle to implement this feature in a useful was. chat bans should NOT affect clan chat or private chat. for this there is a blacklist, the battle chat ban should have nothing to do with chats outside of a battle add an option to disable notification (news notification, new collectable, etc. it's annying and irritation as it is right now) add an option to disable terrain collision alert (the annoying beep-beep sound that alert one if you are about to run on ground)

He is right, French Cruiser are broken. I mean, whenever i shoot at a slightly angled french cruiser all i get are overpens or bounces but when i play my french cruisers and angle the same way against the same ships, i get shot in the face with 3 citadels. If this is not broken then what is?

Notice the bar above the main stat table? There are buttons for all game modes, solo, 2-player, 3-player, ranked, team, co-op.

If you click top right on Progress you can even check out every single day until, probably since you started to play this game. Default is Today, 7 days, 21 days, 60 days. wows-numbers.com lacks some of the info WT has, for example intervals, main battery hit ratio and some other stats, but overall the site delivers the most important info and updates once per hour and it always work. It also has some info that WT does not have, like records, latest fleet addition and stuff like this. Just check it out, play around, click stuff and adapt to the somewhat different info you get there. Most people look at their WR and Rating anyway and not at what really matters to improve their gameplay.

Then why do you still visit it? Switch to wows-numbers.com like most others already did months ago.

I checked the settings twice, nothing to see of an option to disable the island collision warning sound. Anyone know if there is a way? Maybe an addon? Or someone with clue can upload a mute replacement sound for this collision warning? It is extremely annoying, because i play a lot US cruiser and as we all know they are island hugger and that's why i have this damn collision warning sound in my ear for half of the battle.

Hey you great modders out there! Can anyone make a tiny mod to disable the beep-beep alert sound when you are too close to an island? This sound is really very annoying if you play a certain type of ships (mainly island hugging cruisers) a lot. Thanks in advance.

The 'Hit Terrain' thing is the little mountain icon on your crosshair, if you are about to hit the island with a salvo. The 'collision avoidance system' is the ship behavior that work similar to auto-pilot, it avoids that the ship runs into objects by itself. But there is no setting, or i'm blind, to disable this yellow/orange collision indicator on your screen or the collision alert (this beep-beep sound).

There is a bug with Minimap with Shipnames. I tested this with Des Moines (radar and hydro equipped) 3 times with client restart just to make sure. When i have the option enabled to show hydro/radar range on the minimap the solid circles are redrawn and the default dotted line is hidden correctly. Now, when i use either radar and hydro or both, as soon as the cooldown of the consumable is up, the dotted line appears in addition to the solid circle and it stays there for the rest of the battle. This should obviously not happen, the default dotted line should remain invisible and only the solid circle should be visible on the map. If it's unclear what i mean i can add screenshots.
