Yeah, i would like that very much... i dont know, why CB players are 2nd class citizens. Guess WG will just say "but only 5% are active CB players, so its not a big deal" (i think they said 5% not long ago). But if its that low, you might aswell remove the restriction, as literally a handful of players would gain something from it.

Does make sense for game balancing...

Repu has fast reload because it has only 8 guns. - Kremlin 9 guns 33 sec reload - Yamato 9 guns 30 sec reload - Montana 12 guns 30 sec reload - Conqueror 12 guns 30 sec reload - GK 12 guns 29/32 sec reload - Bourgogne 12 guns 28 sec reload - Ohio 8 guns 27,5 sec reload - Thunderer 8 guns 26 sec reload - Repu 8 guns 24 sec reload - your idea 12 guns 20 sec reload... not balanced.

Planes leaves AA range too, so most likely that. I believe if the planes would move towards you, you would have been spotted. Also you might have been spotted on minimap for the enemies.

In terms of game impact, imo only Radar Mino is better, but most people wont attempt to do it. 1. Radar Mino 2. Wooster 3. SMoke Mino/Smolensk

Sadly these days, i dont think this isnt applicabale very often: If your team has all 3 caps, and the enemy is still camping in their own spawn, but your team manages to suicide into the campers, then its clearly the fault of your own team. The enemies didnt play well either, as they should have fought back initially to stop the others from getting all caps. And this can be seen quite often.

My god that could have been 10 kills even. (maybe even 11 if you would have loaded HE and shoot the Hsen before it ended ) and dat Seattle... what a Probably thinks, HE won the game with his CeNtEr PuSh!11!1 anyways, took out Fletcher, first game team not found.exe... we literally lost 5 highertier ships to a Fiji on the outside flank 2nd game was better Cruiser kek #1 Cruiser kek #2

Watch on 9-line Didnt do anything whole game... and what did get as reward for not playing? FIRST AND SECOND IN XP!!!

If you are unsure between PT or IFA, always take PT. It gives so much more value than IFA. Whether you rather take PM or PT is really up to you. Or you go with my build and take both

Nowadays, those replays get stored automatically in your game folder (unless you disable that manually). You can just upload the file here and attach them to your post where we can download them and start with our own client. Its easier/faster than recording it and uploading it to YT. To the latter part: well, if people ask for advice, they usually get it too (might not be sugarcoated, but constructive). Only people who come whining and flaming get an equal response. So if you are nice, we are nice too

That is probably the key factor here. If you are dead, you cant influence the game anymore. WHen you survive longer, you have more chances to turn the table. Other than that, post replays and we will have a look, telling you what you should change. And please dont post that 160k damage games, those are often games which you cant win anyway. Atleast not if you play solo. Thats probably the 2nd thing you need to get out of your head: A great game doesnt guarantee you getting a win. Most likely you did well, because your team did poorly, so you could profit from that.

I think by now its the usual stuff, that the team spawning in the south pretty much takes a default loss as they dont want to touch the Epicenter. Whenever ive been spawning in the south lately, its the same picture over and over: Running behind where C cap normaly is, some go where A usually is, noone is in the center. Only way to win this, is by playing 3x unicum division and hope enemies pull a win harder when they have the caps. Now today we spawned in the north: - Our DD goes into outer circle... noone touches it, gets the cap. YES, THERE EVEN WAS A CV IN THE GAME - Our DD enters 2nd circle and caps that too (at some point, a cruiser/BB actually managed to get into the outer cap to block our points - momentarily) - Our DD goes into the center, and yep, you guessed it, capped it aswell. Basicly 4 mins into the game, we are approaching 700-800 points, and game is basicly over. A total of 5!! ships died, 3 ( 2 enemies / 1 of ours) probably out of desperation to not lose the game after we already had 900 points. I mean cmon... this is as unfun as it can be. Especially as i had 3 BBs + a Moskva + a DD/CA running down my flank, so if i wouldnt have started kiting i would have died aswell, not getting any more out of it (probably even less) On another note: Give back old Islands of Ice

Is that good enough? I mean, it doesnt say if people are quitting or just jumping into hightiers, but people are definetely playing less lowtiers, thats a fact.

I guess if thats fun to you, then we dont need to argue any more, as we have just a different perspective here. Its fun for you - not fun for me. I want to play a different game than playing hide and seek with CV, which gets me nothing in return.

Yes, thats the biggest problem right there: If the Z wouldnt have gone to the cap, we would have lost If the NC wouldnt have parked in the center, we would have lost. I think, if i would have gone to the center instead, we would have lost too. I had to kill the Gearing on the flank, to free my sheep from their pasture behind the island. The worst part is, if the Moskva/PR would have played properly, they could have done it themselves, but they kept popping radar left and right for no reason (moskva used it 1 min into the game...). Or if the CV would have dealt with the gearing...

That doesnt really matter, as im comparing bad players on the enemy team. Or is having a bad CV player on my team getting me killed somehow? You basicly ignored the point i was making, pulling strawmens left and right: Is a bad CV player more annoying to deal with than any other class being played badly? Answer that please.

I think you misunderstood me: A bad DD player just yoloing doesnt harm me. He will just get killed, either by me or by my team (most likely the latter, as it poses an unnecessary risk to take if im in a DD atleast and if i can outspot him)

Bad CV players still need more workaround than any other class being played badly. Bad DD player yoloing in? Not a problem Bad Cruiser showing broadside? gets citadelled Bad BB sitting on A-line? Who cares Bad CV Player? Just keeps coming being annoying af. I dont have to work around other bad players, i smack them back to port. I do have to against bad CVs. had to give some example? Doesnt matter who it is, if i know him, and he is good, i change my playstyle. If i see random CV revealing himself as a nooby, i can play differently.

1. oh yeah, i just run away with 200kts... oh wait. It can always happen, as you dont know what weird moves that guy is flying. Especially if you dont want to sit 20km from the enemy being useless. 2. Its an important factor how you can play. If i would meet Erazer, i would play differently compared to some random noob. 3. If you have to dodge his attacks, you are still spotted by him, making his team shoot you.

Getting randomly spotted? Not knowing how good the enemy CV actually is (need external tools to check that prior to the game starting)? You still have to dodge his attacks?

Technically you can test any ship - but only 1 game. Then WG usually returns your money if you dont want it. Ofc, 1 game might not be saying much...

That ship has already sailed Educating the playerbase = doesnt work. Most of them simply dont care how they play. Yesterday in a streamchat, one guy sad, he shows broadside ALL THE TIME, because he doesnt care Not to mention, removing a gamemode doesnt seem to be a huge loss IMO. Try it on another map, maybe it works there. Or for hightiers, we need 2 circles because of the map size.

Well, i didnt die, but had to do nothing. I could have chosen to die, doing even less. And still win. I think that sums it up already. The problem is, i dont know the last time i had a game on Ice Islands Epicenter, where both teams tried to fight for the caps. (probably never ). And for some reason, the team in the south is basicly every time failing to do it. I wouldnt whine (if you want to call it that) if i wouldnt think its the majority of times happening. Sure, we all get bad teams on other maps too. But its not happening every time. But on Ice Islands, this is more like standard procedure, and its not one factor, its all of them combined. earlier this year 8 minute game, but atleast 2/3 of the enemy team died, giving us the option to get some damage in 2 weeks ago And we actually won that one! Props to the Z who took one for the team, as did the NC later. After i dealt with the Gearing, the way was finaly open for me to get in the center too. you tell me... Had 1 Cruiser helping me in the center vs 3 DDs. Our ChungMu went to the corner, got cornered by Kitakaze and died. Benham and Yugumo started gunboating Thats it, yep. Big Race and Trident Epicenter work and can be quite fun actually. While Ice Islands and Tears of the Desert are most of the time just horrible. People often complain, that others only whine if they lose, so i thought, ill do it when i get a win Fun for me is, when i enjoyed the game im playing. Certain map/gamemode combination are often a bummer before it actually starts. I mean, i think we should be able to disable certain maps/gamemodes if we dont want them. That would give WG the feedback, IF something is wrong or not. Im willing to accept, that we are the minority whining about those maps here, but as it stands, im not convinced that we are.

*quote stealing from greatest gaming achievements* Since it fits better here: boy oh boy can i list the crap going on in this game... - We spawned center-ish, and decided to go D cap, because the Spam- div was at A and Erazer was helping on A aswell, so it seemed like a good idea. Our Benson spawned at D, and went there aswell. - First, Enemy Ibuki rushes fullspeed into the cap, our BBs havent moved one bit when we get to D cap. REMEMBER: WE SPAWNED CENTER! So Ibuki gets into cap almost unharmed. - Meanwhile, Benson goes into cap, smokes the entire cap while circling, totaly smoking up the enemies ofc, especially the Ibuki. - Enemy Black flanked on the outside, could now stealthradar thanks to the Benson smoke. I radar it back, could shoot it twice till he moved back behind the island into our 2 DDs. Forlornsailor wants to pick the fight with the half-dead Black, but get torped from behind by our Benson, and gets smacked for 6k due to that by the Alsace. - Our Massa thinks, its smart to move full broadside at the D cap, and literally just evaporated - After coming back from the outside to get rid of the Black, i go back towards D to get rid of the Ibuki. Which i basicly had to do alone as you can see on the damage i dealt to him. 3 BBs are sitting behind the cap waiting for me, the Kitakaze, who should have been dead aswell, but wasnt once again thanks to our Benson, was also stealthshooting me. So i had move away again. - Finaly, our Kremlin found the W button and approaches the D cap.... - Enemy Alsace and Richelieu are now pushing on the outside flank into me and the Kremlin. - What does our genious Kremlin do? WHILE PEEING HIS PANTS, steams full ahead into D cap, leaving me alone with the 2 BBs. Which i had to rush-kill, getting me out of the game... - This alone wasnt bad enough, now the Kremlin thinks, well [edited]MEH, ImA GoNnA RaM tEh BB!!11 (while we are losing ofc). Still NOT BAD ENOUGH, while ramming that BB, Forlornsailor was 2,5km away from that BB, ready to torp it, but our glorious BB genious blocked his torppath We are down 3 to 1 cap, enemy Lex sitting in the back in a corner, Kitakaze in our C cap, we split up, no chance to get to the CV within the last 5 mins anyway... /rant Needless to say, i totaly lost it that game
