    [TOXIC]

  1. The question is, why do you allow the storm to take out your power? And more important, why do you have the computer in the garage? Can I assume that you parked your car under the desk?

    Halloween waste of time

    Yeah damn 60 XP camos and 25.000 Elite XP. I was expecting something like a free Kutuzov plus 12.000 Doubloons and 3 months Premium Time for 15 minute playtime to complete this operation.
  3. Wait what? You don't want to have a player like this … … on your team? I wonder why.

    Page 4 is not where this thread is supposed to be.
  5. Why would you rotate the minimap in first place? This is confusing af and it take longer to see what is going on than you have time in a heated battle.

    message.png - new flag spotted in NA

    The code lead to a URL and there is a signup for some event, but no idea what this event is about. Probably get a ton free stuff, because it is not EU. I have the flag too on NA but did not sign up yet.

    Skip the German DD Line up to...

    This really depend on your playstyle. I personally use this build on my Z-52. I know other players who specc BFT instead TAE, others take as second 4th row skill AFT, which is viable for Z-46 but IMO not Z-52 because it has more range by default. RPF in combination with smoke and hydro surely make a deadly DD hunter combination. But then again, german DDs are excellent at contesting and controlling caps, so enemy DDs usually come to you anyway and you don't have to search them with RPF. You should have grinded the line already then you could test different specs with the free reset.
  9. Well, usually I don't do two things in WoWs and this is 1) playing Coop and 2) playing BB, because both are boring af for me. Now with the free Revo… BB and the daily container you get with possible premium time or Doubloons, my greed made me play a BB in Coop, because I figured this is the fastest way to get over with the daily win in a BB. While it is very easy to carry and win in Coop, even for me as BB potato, did I learn something about this game mode. I was often joking (kinda) in randoms, that I rather have a bot in my team than certain BB players, but I had not really a clue how right I was with this statement, until now. Bot BBs actually push in and most of the time bow in torward a target, making it harder to hit them and avoiding broadside citadels. They go for objectives and if there is no way out, these suckers try to ram you. From the first minute on they push forward and try to brawl, dodging torps like a champ and have a surprisingly good aim. I'm not kidding, these bots play better than at least 30% of the BB fruits I have to deal with in random battles on my team. Sure the bots will go down and they lose in the end, but at least they tried, this is much more than I can say about a lot of human BB players.

    Lo Yang - Torp selection

    Recently we had a discussion about the Lo Yang torps in this thread. In the end it comes down to personal playstyle and preference.

  13. Everything in the shop is overpriced. Supporting the game one likes financially is okay, but most of the ships, prem camos and whatnot are way too expensive. The value you get out of this stuff is simply not worth it. Additionally there is no consistency in pricing like this camo or why does one Tx ship cost much more than another premium ship at the same tier (x = number of the tier and not tier 10, before some smartypants crawls out of his hole just to let me know there are no tier 10 premium ships [yet]). Buying items from the premium shop? Nope thanks.

  16. Sorry guys, no minimap but … … Look at the score of this FDG. This guy was not afk! It was a 16 minutes standard battle, while we pushed the east flank on shatter (or was it shards? i always confuse these two) he was at all times 3 squares on the minimap behind us. When we capped the enemy base, he was sailing 1/4 speed around the island in the far east. I am not even sure if he fired his guns once. On a sidenote, this screenshot also shows that playing for the team as DD is utter bullcrap for the XP. I scouted the whole game, I killed the enemy Gearing, smoked my pushing team mates 3 times while I scouted enemy ships and spotted a ton of torps. The result is this shitty XP and not a single compliment either. So WHY THE F… should I play for the team when this is what I get in return? It's even more sad, because I have a 19 point commander on my Gearing and farm elite XP with it, I slap restless fire camo on it, the elite flag and normal commander xp flags, to maximize the elite XP gain - and this crap is the result for playing for the team.

    What I have learned about Coop while playing the Revolutsiya

    Probably, but it's most noticable with BB players. Bot DDs yolo into caps, just like human players and Cruisers sail around clueless and shooting HE at everything that is spotted.

    Good, so it's fodder for my Lo Yang.

    Saving Transylvania - tips for success

    Same for me. Only 4 stars but this is okay. First try I played Cruiser and this game just reminded me that BB players are the same potatoes in operations as they are in randoms. Game starts and after 90 seconds I hear the fail sound and read task failed. I thought WTF, how? what? why? I looked around and saw it, a BB t-boned Transylvania and forced it to stop, exactly what Transylvania is supposed not to do. We continued and failed, 0 stars. Next game I played DD and after not even 3 minutes we already lost 2 ships. WTF again. We continued and luckily finished successful, with 4 stars though. We had not enough firepower left to kill Rasputin for the 5th star.

  21. true UPDATE Best source for XP are killed planes and at tier 5/6 there are very often 2 CVs per side.

    This DD is actually one of the very few premiums I'm interested in. I hope they don't screw it up.
  23. The higher the tier the more XP you get. 1600 on a win at tier 10 is almost a guarantee even with an average game. If you play low/mid tier make sure to play something like Cleveland because 1) excellent DD killer = a lot of XP and 2) excellent AA, because killed planes = ridiculous XP. Your problem is not so much of how you play but at what tier you play. Update It also does not harm to slap a 100% XP camo and some XP flags on your ship to complete the mission. And do not tell me you have none, because WG throws them in metric tons at the players for free for all kind of missions and events.
  24. I have just patched my NA client and the patch downloaded in 2 chunks of 2200 MB and 800 MB, so plan accordingly if you have a slow internet connection.
