    It has been a pleasure to be here, and I hope I will have the option to interact with all of you on other communication platforms, be it various Discord servers, Reddit, Facebook groups and pages, or any other Social Media and on streams as well. And, of course, I am looking forward to meeting you in battles!

     

    Like a true captain, I will be here till the very end of this forum, which will happen this afternoon.

    Good luck in your future endeavors and fair seas!

    no, not a chance ... these forums were the only suitable medium for me to express what I wanted to express ...

     

    also a true captain tries everything possible to save his ship first ... we have seen no such actions from you regarding the forum closure ... not even a faint mention that you fought against it ...

    We are not forcing anyone to use discord - if you feel more comfortable using any other media paltform that we are active on, feel free to interact with us there, however Discord will be our main priority for interactions with players.

    You are not forcing anyone to use Discord, you are just removing the other options ...

    Well. It seems that WG are shutting down the forum. I think to not only cut costs (not a dying games move at all) but to also centralise and strangle any sort of discontent, mostly due to the way Discord works. So, I suppose this will be the last thread I make. So, I just wanted to say see ya and thanks for all the fun. Even I or we never always agreed on stuff. I'd say I'd see you on discord. But having seen the cluster [edited]of that hell hole. It's a nah from me. o7

    was a pleasure interacting with you on these forums dear sir (and on one occasion youtube comment section). thanks for all the knowledge I have learned from your posts ....

    One thing that caught my eye, not all Discord accounts are created equal:

    Quote

    4. Authenticate your account: After joining a server, you'll need to authenticate your account. Go to the #welcome-lobby channel and click the “Click here!” button. This will prompt you to log in to your Wargaming Account. If you don't have a Wargaming Account (for example, if you play through Steam, EGS, or the Microsoft Store), you'll need to create one. This brings the benefit of your actual in-game name and server being displayed to other Discord members!

    So basically all those playing with a non-direct WG account will miss out on the rewards :-)

     

    Good job WG, incompetent as usual.

    I encourage you to check out discord new forum feature which will work to serve the same purpose it did here on the web forum, as well as dedicated update and pts feedback forum threads on discord where we can easily collect your feedback. Discord also offers a more direct and quick form of communication in regular channels while maintaining the option to keep forum-style longer form content. If you have any suggestions on how we can make your interactions on discord more pleasant and how we can make this transition easier, feel free to let me know!

     

    the biggest reason is that generally people have moved away from the forum and have started using other platforms (Mostly discord in this case). We would rather focus our efforts on our official discord servers that have been steadily growing and are a place of more direct engagement. This is a decision that was not made lightly and one that was considered for a very long time before we decided that this was the right way to move forward. It is certainly not an easy decision for us to make, but we believe it is the right one; to shift our focus to other platforms.

     

    I think the new forum feature on discord lends itself quite well to this. I've certainly enjoyed it so far. We're open to suggestions on this front :)

     

     

    please show us an effective way to search discord outside of discord :-) there is not even an effective way to search discord INSIDE discord ...

     

    also Discord is organized the wrong way around, newest at the bottom ....

    up to T8 I don't see a point in the alternate EU DDs ... they do nothing better than anybody else ... no concealment, no gun power, no torpedo power ... UK and US, hell even PA DDs look to be much better ... at T8 the gimmick comes in (radar) but until T10 they are not really anything special ...

    Hey, thanks for bringing it to our attention, we've dealt with these people! but in the future using the integrated report feature is enough ;)

    any explanation how they got around the minimum battle amount to post on the forums ? is that still required ?

    I dont understand why people react to this so negatively?
    First, its a test. So limited number of ships to get shouldnt be very surprising

    Second, if a test is successful and its goes in as a permanent option, it will likely include all currently selling ships - so you will be able to exchange T10 special ships for T8 premiums for free or very small doubloon price. So, for 238k coal and maybe 1-2k doubloons. I dont see any downsides in this. The ability to get doubloon only ships for coal at inflated price is good, no matter how inflated price it is.
     

    exactly because this is a test the selection should be much wider to account for more combinations to test ... that's that you normally do when you wan to test something. Also why announce ships for a CLOSED test ? Since none of us can participate, the information is irrelevant. We are more interested in the exact mechanics yet that descriptions is missing almost entirely ...

    Well, technically it's for ships that have a tech tree.

    You can still use premium ships, but they have to also have an associated tech tree.

    Premiums that don't have a corresponding tree don't qualify, so things like Gronningen (Dutch DD), Viribus Unitis (PanEU BB) and all Commonwealth ships

    Naval Battles has the same rules.

    except the one time when subs were introduced :-)

    I tested with your 1900x1280 resolution.

    I got you 'pencil' effect: I changed to Borderless windowed, applied changes, then back to Fullscreen, applied again and the ship aspect was back to normal.
    I think the settings file kept some old values from the former settings page and changing the settings ingame may have removed these old vlaues.

    As you can see there's no difference between your resolution and my resolution (apart the fact I was not able to get screenshots from the exact same angle), so the game seems to properly adapt to the resolution without any aspect ratio setting.
    The image scaling setting is disabled in my graphic card control panel.
     

    note: ships look different in Port than in Game since ingame you are further away from the ship ...

    I work in a similar company as Wargaming, and I can tell you that opinion of those 5% "good players" is completely irrelevant. 
    1. Nobody cares what they think, and nobody will ever care what they think

    I do hope I will never have to use your company product ... you have a good marketing strategy here ...
