Yes. But you made the bs claim first. Where are your numbers?

Riiight. Thats why CVs survivability is now even higher.

Rest are in Gulag already

Source? The only WG poll I remember, showed 30% against new CVs, 70% in favor of RTS CVs. Ofc WG said "such polls will always be negative because reason".

That was not what I was getting at. Ofcourse it doesnt. But you acknowledged the fact, that people like him lost - atleast one way - to play the game they loved in the way they chose to. Its not a simple change. You are not being honest in this discussion. It was not what I was asking about. Those where very simple questions, you could have answered with yes or no. You chose not to and deflect to something, I wasnt talking about. One class got removed and replaced by another. simple as that.

What about guys like Farazelleth? Did the game, that he loved, got robbed from him, yes or no? And do you think, he is the only one like this, yes or no? Simple questions.

Read my posts. Ive put links to the sources in there aswell.

Players online doesnt tell anything. I posted - twice - in this very thread, how played games dropped. from 2.8 mil per week before patch to 1.9 mil last week. If people chose to ignore it - not my fault. Its not natural when they all drop off within 7 days.

FIFY

Nice to hear & see, that its working! And a really impressive score - keep it up mate!

Maybe "We need more Data"? geegee WG.

Since we are doing first games: Nagato was my maiden voyage of the day. I already saw in Narai, that I will like her. Indeed she delivers. And the game was super close, we were 680:850 behind with 1:3 caps, then managed to blabb a couple of ships and secure 2 caps. RNG was on my side, when I won a brawl against a Bismarck ^^ Then Fletcher - was a mixed bag today. One game lost because 2xCV, enemy CVs knew, they had to focus me (which I didnt care about) BUT the enemy DD division used that to rush me - while my team was sleeping between islands. But this game was the opposite. After 4 mins I had already 75k dmg . Aand another nice DD game: Gadjah. I had fun, holding a complete flank consisting of Hsienyang, Myoko, Bismarck, Cleveland and Duke of York - with the help oy my Divisions Sims :) Funny enough: @DFens_666 gets the same XP as I do, while having only 40k dmg - but he defended our base^^

Carefull when calling other people names. Especially when they tell the truth: http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/20190119/eu_week/average_class.html http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/20190302/eu_week/average_class.html btw: "people online" is about as usefull as counting the buses in traffic and trying to tell, how many people are using public transportation from that number. You need to count the people in the bus, aka battles played. Numbers above. CV players complained about AP bombs. Also I love your level of generalization. From your telling, one could think, we have about 4 players in wows. His facts are in the sources I provided. Where are your facts?

Wait. First you write: So thats your standard. But then you go on and throw insults around, that you even bypass the forum-filter, since you know, they will be censored? Not bad. I think you crashed your own standards. No... no, you really didnt get the point. When I slip out of my smoke and get insta-deleted in my mino - then I screw up. When I bump into an island with my Missouri and take a 40k broadside - then I screw up. When I rage like a child, because I cant have candy NAO and then refuse to play the game to the end - then thats call beeing an ... that word you slipped by the forum filter earlier.

About 75% of our fellow captains out there? Thats the direction im favouring myself for a long time, yup. Would make a great addition and removes this stupid feelings, that you sometime as a CV have, when you see a lineup like 2x Atlanta, 3x Alaska 3x Jean bart as enemys and you have Yorcks, FdGs and Ibukis. No sh!t, that happened to me. Game over? But now we can discuss and agree for days to come, even if we somehow bring 99% of all active players to agree with that, S_O will come and explain to us, how wrong we all are. Or we get a dev letter: NOPE!"

Honestly? Not even funny anymore...

As a matter of fact: there was a discussion in the forum not long ago how to access the wows-data and be able to create own statistics from them. I would have to search the topic. As I recall, it needed quite some processing power and diskspace tho. I mean I run a small server here but I dont feel like getting into it - and not sure the server would handle it. Maybe you have access to such infrastructure? Maybe you actually could reel in those numbers? Not sure if you are up for it tho. ^^

You had to beat me to it didnt you You are prolly right. But you know, when I engage WG in a serious way, all I hear is "we need more data". Even when I point out so obvious things like "hey, you cant get this achievement anymore, because you changed flooding. like literally unachievable". They need more data. It turns you into a saracstic, grumpy dog. For the sake of discussing with you, Ill stop now (no, that wasnt sarcasm. ). Oh yea, the way they did it, you need auto consumables. The thing is: In my opinion its wrong in the first place to take away the control over the hull - and im not alone with that stand. So you´d never need auto-consumables in the first place. And because they took away those options from the player, they had to nerf DoT into the ground on CVs. Like a CV is now the most resistant ship to flooding, receiving a max of 7,5 % damage/ max health from one flood. DDs and Cruisers are at 10%. So infact i DO view it from that direction. The questions is: do you see it from the other direction? As is: maybe there is no need for auto-consumables but its nevertheless possible to do it. And if we look at it from that way and spin the narrative to a point, where all ships have auto-consumables, then we see the absurdity: DoT becomes a joke, a passive mechanicsm and at the same time you remove the skillgap and make it easier for bad players to compete. All im saying is: beware the early signs. I hope they never concider it but im raising awareness to the possiblity (which is after all not that absurd, since they did it to the CVs).

This. Im interested in this myself.

Ofcourse nobody "needs" this achievement. But this is their job, they should have the claim to themself to get it right. When you properly plan things like this before, you make a checklist, what all is attached to it. So that you dont miss it. And if you miss it, and someone points you to it, you atleast react properly. Do you know, what Google does, when you report a bug to them? Yes, I know, the comparision is a bit off, but still. Read about the Google Vulnerability Reward Program (VRP) if you are interested. Here I am (and in other cases many others aswell), motivated, investing my free time (well, some of my work time to be fair), helping WG out with the best intention to make this game better and remove weird things, and I hear... we need more data? Like when I find a door in a RPG, that doesnt open but through the window I can see a loot box or smth, would they need "more data"? Do I need the loot? Nah. But how does the owner of the game looks like, when he leaves stuff like that in the game. Like I said: They could have replaced the tasks in Science of Victory and at other places. Or you lower the bar temporarily to 20k or w/e. As if it would hurt anyone. btw: THAT data would actually be meaningful. Like setting the bar too low and once too many Liquidator achievements are given out, you could go an correct it. But now we have like a 0,000000000001 % possibility to get this achievement so now they will look at data, telling them "hey nobody gets this achievement (which was rare to begin with) - maybe something is wrong?". This data is not needed. You look at the requirements, you look what flooding does now and you conclude = pretty much impossible.

What part of "one of the groups" do you need help understanding with? Sure. Why stop there? Auto DCP & auto heal for BBs I say! Auto def AA for cruisers, once there are planes near. Man, auto-shoot once a target is in sight. We sort of have auto-steering already in the game, combine bot-movement with collision avoidance and Im finally not needed anymore. Just start up the game, go to work or to sleep and let the game play. Win-win. I can work more AND play more at the same time, so I can buy more premium ships. I can still check the epic moments and highlights from the replays. Well, from the last 30 that is, since the game now deletes all other replays.

Here we see one of the small groups of people, that like the new CVs: Those, that are full of hate towards RTS CVs. They suffered for years, because they couldnt deal with it and didnt have the intelligence to learn to play this class or play against it. Thats what WG is catering. I rest my case. btw FooFaFie: You are doing 38% with orange & red stats in the rework. Is it stil too hard to play? Gosh, WG, you hear that? We need more dumbed down gameplay and more automized mechanics, we are not there yet !!1

You are wrong, that we cant influence it. We can stop those people, once they do it, and then they cant do it to others. Yea, I do it via PM.

Thats where you are wrong. Those kind of missbehavoir I always report to support or MrConway with replay and screens. Then I bookmark a link to that guys wows-numbers and check, once I get an answer. For some reason, those people usualy dont play random games for exactly 14 days, starting that moment. What a weird coincidence, dont you think?

How long will this take? Why do we have tasks, that need this achievement still in the game in the meantime? Shouldnt the devs not atleast replace those tasks with something, that is atleast achievable? Im sorry, but these constant "we need more data" answers dont cut it in the long run. How much data does your dev-team need, to see, that you cant achieve these tasks/achievements atm?
