Introduce border humping damage
ThePurpleSmurf replied to Port_Authority's topic in General Discussion
My solution would be, once you touch border: disable all armament (for CVs, no planes can launch) for 30 seconds after 30 seconds deal additional DoT damage equal to one fire for 30 seconds - 100% healable, so it's a temporary punishment after 60 seconds deal DoT damage equal to two fires … and so on if a player dies to this DoT damage on the border, which means he did it on purpose, make him pink for 10 games with the option to go orange upon another incident and be co-op locked for a certain amount of games. Also, fix secondaries hit targets on the border. Right now not a single secondary shell hits a ship if on the border, because the AI does not understand what a map border is. -

Solved - Unable to download update/game
ThePurpleSmurf replied to Andunedhel_GC's topic in General Discussion
They had contradicting times before. It said 11 CET in the alert box and 12 CET in the patch notes. Now they "postponed" the downtime to the time that was set from the beginning, according to the patch notes. I assume it was a "communication issue" -
Depends on how much you want to have the ship(s). Yes they will become available for everyone, but look at Patrie for example. Between the early access and the now release are like 3 or 4 months.

Solved - Unable to download update/game
ThePurpleSmurf replied to Andunedhel_GC's topic in General Discussion
Disable No Uploading (click it that it has a checkmark). I don't know if this still works today as it used to work many years ago, but if you have Uploading enabled then you torrent the update files, which is usually much slower. If you have Uploading disabled you download directly from the update servers - make sure to completely close and reopen GC after you changed the setting. I have it disabled since forever and never had any issues with download speed (usually between 8 and 10 MB/s) - one of the few things that worked so far perfectly when it comes to WoWs. Other things to try, to make sure it is not your routing. Grab your laptop and update the game at a friends house or use a a hotspot/internet cafe. Also, if you have a RL friend who plays the game too and he can download updates, then you can copy the update files to a flash drive and c&p the files into your updates folder inside your WoWs folder. GC should find the files and install them. -
Then please uninstall the game, because you use quite a few things ingame that used to be "cheats" a.k.a. mods.
-
I'm no doctor but I believe this is where you find even more crap.
-
Worked now. Maybe I was too fast because it just went live when I put it in GC to activate.
-
The final code, which I suppose should be redeemed, returns an invalid error.

Blyskawica or Rio de Janerio for Coal
ThePurpleSmurf replied to Ocsimano18's topic in General Discussion
That's because the ship is trash nowadays. It has, literally, the worst stats in every category for T7. No mater if WR, avg kills, avg damage, avg everything. So it's no wonder that if you manage to kill something and have 30k damage, which is not hard as a semi-okayish player, you have already deep purple stats achieved. The ship itself is really bad, no AA, extremely slow turret traverse, slow reload, weak torps, huge ship with crap rudder shift, turning circle like a russian supership, low gun caliber that pens nothing, stupid turret setup which makes it impossible to have all guns on target unless you broadside, which is not healthy given the massive size of the ship. The ship has only 2 things going for it: 1) looks and 2) speed -
Hmm, 12 ships killed in a single game. Even at T1 bots seal clubbing, 12 kills is probably only possible if everyone except the player drop from the battle.

What are the controls for changing cam etc in replays?
ThePurpleSmurf replied to JohnMac79's topic in General Discussion
You are very limited in what you can do in a replay. It's nothing like the free cam that you have ingame when you are dead. You can left-click to look around just like freelook ingame, but that's about all you can do. Other than that the right shift+ctrl+backspace detaches the cam from the ship to fly around, but again, this is nothing like the free cam when you are dead in a battle. The replays are for years buggy AF and the options are utter trash. You will encounter so many graphic glitches, broken everything that it's not even funny. WG promises many times to implement a proper replay system, but this goes on for like 5+ years and nothing changed. It doesn't generate any money, so we are stuck with this pile of trashy replay system. -
If you hold on to it and play Ranked to get some more you can buy 1 year of premium time on Christmas. WG has traditionally a 50% discount on premium time and a full year cost about 13k doubloons. Alternatively buy Christmas crates (the medium size) as they drop fairly often a ship or other useful stuff - if WG doesn't cheat this year again that is.

Hey, this is how we got to a lot of invention and a lot of modern medicine. For instance Viagra - originally it was meant to be medicine to treat heart problem and look what we got. Or how about Penicillin. We only have it because one slightly dented scientist forgot he left it out just to find it weeks later and some bacteria didn't grow because mold prevented it from happening. Not to forget the microwave oven or X-ray machine … list goes on and on and now we have to mention WG in the same sentence.
-
So is their replay system and said they want to improve it and even make is server side that we don't lose any replays with updates. They said this in, let's see 2016 and 2017, 2018 I believe, 2019 for sure, 2020 hell yeah, 2021 will definitely come, 2022 not high priority. If WoWs player veterans learned one thing over years than it is that WG's "on the list" translates to "muhahaha, dream on fools" and that "not high priority" translates to "muhahaha, you player morons still believe?". And the secret company motto (probably) is "promises are meant to be broken".

How to get defended ribbons?
ThePurpleSmurf replied to VedranSeaWolf359's topic in General Discussion
Defended ribbons you say? Other than that it's just luck how many you get per game. -
Thanks for forwarding it to the author. 👍

Anniversary super container haul
ThePurpleSmurf replied to Miscommunication_dept's topic in General Discussion
Well, it's a 0.2% to get a T9 ship and then again 2% for this specific ship. There is a lot of trash in the T8-T9 premium ship section. -
I have a suggestion for mod Valera by Roslich. The forum doesn't know a user Roslich so I can not message him directly. For the mod it would make much more sense if the signals are the first in the list, because they are checked and changed most often. Upgrades and consumables are usually set/installed once and never touched again. So having to scroll through the entire list down to the signals is pretty inconvenient. Can you forward the suggestion to the author to change the order and put signals to the top? Or maybe an alternative Valera v2 is an option that has only the signals in the drop down. Thank you

How WG can encourage players to use expendable camouflages in battles: camouflage cashback!
ThePurpleSmurf replied to DanSilverwing's topic in General Discussion
No they should be a lot cheaper that people can buy the perma camo for all ships. For those who don't like camos there are mods to remove them only on your screen. For people who love camos there is no such mod to show ugly gray ships with clothes on. Wanting them to be more expensive because YOU don't like them is purely egoistic. -
WoWs has accidentally invented the best anti-cheat in the industry. The spaghetti code combined with the atrocious servers make it impossible to cheat. Desyncs, hiccups, unpredictable camera & aiming issues, curving torps and invisible object where you get stuck with the ship, logon bugs and funky dispersion when shooting over islands make any cheat useless.

Sherman is currently one of the strongest DD in the game. Black is overrated. It used to be very strong, but nowadays it's average at best and it's more for comp play like Ranked but pretty bad as solo player in Randoms. Neustra is good but difficult to play. It's neither a torp boat nor a gun boat, it's a hybrid hit and run ship to bully other DDs. Bazan is probably utter trash, saw a few streams and vids about it and … no thanks, from this DD-main here.

Anhalt is lacking in secondary department so hard...
ThePurpleSmurf replied to ARE_YOU_HUMAN's topic in General Discussion
The average BB player has no hands and has to rely on the AI (read secondaries) play the game for them because they are not capable of dealing damage on their own. If WG releases a BB without secondaries, especially a German BB, the average BB puppy starts to panic, because now they have no idea how to play the ship. They are also not capable of understanding that the strength of this ship lies somewhere else, and not turtleback played by the AI. So they come to the, to them, logical conclusion that this ship must be really bad. -

I haven't checked it yet (and can't because it's disabled now), but wasn't it said that it matters how many moves you need to win. The more moves the less tokens.
