You don't even need to push Alt to be able to see the ship names, you can turn it on permanently and seeing the C of Cleveland or B of Baltimore (which look visually different anyway one having an extra turret) is a lot faster than visual details. Like many in this thread I think you're making a bit of a fuss over nothing and there's already a very simple way to mitigate the small issue.

The skills don't seem interesting or useful. So this "special" commander will just be a 10 pointer that I may eventually find a use for with a standard build.

On a DD (other than Khaba, maybe, but Steering Gear is more likely if not Concealment mod) it's flat out useless as concealment is life to DD's. Essentially the Target Acquisition mod is useless to everyone.

Think that video was recorded on the NA server, from what I've seen play there is a good deal more aggressive and less campy. His point is valid though, passive camping BB's do lose games, there's a line between a positive push and a YOLO rush that some people don't understand.

Please tell us the Musashi defeat was in COOP.... COOP credit returns are very weak, for a reason. That level of exp can't be done in a Random at Tier 9 surely? The Musashi reviews by the testers all pointed out it was not a great credits earner so it was no secret, but those damage results can be comfortably achieved from a few indifferent salvoes without really trying early on in a battle. I can and to call me a relatively poor BB player would be reasonable.

P2Win pwns n00bs?

I am most definitely a filthy capitalist, been in business far too long not to be No way in hell I'd have bought that ship with that repulsive camo, in fact I didn't buy it at all even though I have the other Italian ships and may go for the new cruiser when it's released. @Riselotte I agree that Eagle camo looks absurd. I can deal with the daft Halloween and Space camo's as they were event related and have their own daft charm, but a Sesame Street/Muppet bird bolted to the bridge looks crappy.

Hell of a lot nicer than the Kobyashi(sp?) monstrosities, the Roma one is truly awful.

That's an Atago minus camo or am I being stupid? Hell it not only comes with a Perma camo, but like all Premiums automatic resupply is turned on by dafault. Sometimes you just need to facepalm.

I must have missed the threads the last 2 seasons then.

No, much as I'm sure a lot of us would like to know who and the Clan it would be against their policy, let Support handle it.

Banned permanently from Ranked, and if they have Flint or Black those should be removed, they may see it as a bit of harmless fun, but cheating shouldn't be tolerated.

I struggled with the previous problem (more than likely memory leak) in 0.7.2 as did many people, but have had no issues since 0.7.3 hit. Have 16Gb of RAM though. Integrity check and a clean install may help, obviously test in "Safe Mode" first where no mods are run and see if the problem persists.

Send the replay to support on a ticket naming them both and the Clan, both need a good slapping for trying to game the system.

I'm seeing a lot of North Carolina's and Alabama's, even the occasional Amagi and Kii, but yes KM and FR BB's in numbers. The mix of cruisers (when there are any) is varied.

Divisioned win. CV, 2xBB sank 6 of the enemy. Cruiser and 5x DD.

It is however a reason for you NOT to play in Ranked, as I said your name stood out to me having seen you play. In Ranked you either pull your weight or you doom your team to a loss, 7v7 isn't at all forgiving of mistakes (god knows I make enough) plus you've posted that you take stock ships (T8's at stock are utterly pathetic, Chapayev for instance has no Radar, you need the hull upgrade) and untrained Captains into Randoms. You would be facing people with fully upgraded ships and a lot of them with 19 point Captains. Stock and lousy Captain skills (even ignoring player ability) is a total liability and completely unfair to your potential teammates, it's not easy to carry dead weight in Ranked 7v7 matches, if you have any Karma expect it to get obliterated if you don't go in prepared and capable of doing your task. If you want to use the "I play just for fun" argument then do it in COOP, not Ranked.

You sure about that? In Randoms and COOP I've only ever seen same Tier CV's or where in pairs sometimes a T4-5 T5-6 combo, once or twice T6-7. I've certainly seen the same CV's e.g. Hiryu with different upgrades and captain skills as you can sometimes tell from the number of planes in a squadron or by looking at the game loading screen and mousing over the CV's. As far as I'm aware that's always been the case they've never been mirrored other than in Tiers, I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I'm not.

There's an option down the page to create a ticket, you can attach the replay there and an explanation of the rule violation. Tempted to generate one for a recent Ranked game where we had a lead that should have won the game and the game was deliberately thrown by a Benson that flat out refused to move, spot or shoot , he just camped behind an island in the nested A/B cap until he got charged down, meanwhile the BB's had been chopped due to zero spotting he came 2nd bottom. Whole team was asking him repeatedly to at least spot.

You don't have to broach the hull to "sink" a ship, in this game a ship is sunk when it's taken so much damage it's wrecked, the graphic is just simplified so that a dead ship is sunk and not a floating smouldering wreck. Yes fires are RNG dependent, they're also extinguishable with sensible use of Damage Control and ships with a heal (mostly BB's) can heal back the fire damage. As to the dispersion issue again there's some RNG in there, if it wasn't there then the deletion rate would be ludicrous, even worse than it is now. In realistic terms the guns on BB were way less accurate than they're implemented in the game, but the realism argument has been done to death, the game simply wouldn't work as a reality simulator. Oh and obligatory question :- Can I haz your stuffs?

There's a lot of CV's in low tier games and with them having few fighters and the ships having essentially useless AA they do pose significant problems making the games a bit boring, more than a few CV players like to sealclub as well since there's nothing to stop them. The OP only has 937 battles so odds are he's met a lot of CV's and had nothing to counter them.

And yet another utterly useless Asashio pulling down the team to a loss, his words were "Asashio can't cap or spot". He had no idea what his concealment was for and I wouldn't be at all shocked if he had no experience with DD's, Tier 8 is NOT the place to learn... He managed to land 1 torpedo salvo from no idea how many in a long game and came 3rd bottom, we would have been better off with an AFK BB.

Hard to know for sure, but the Gadjah as people have said is an N class and we can hope it will be representative of at least the style of some, but with normal torpedoes that can be single and narrow fired.

If you're willing to ignore objectives, take no risks and just flank and farm damage they're easy to get, but apart from a few like Khaba that aren't suited to objective play in the early to mid game it requires selfish play too, of course it's quite possible to get them with objective play, it just takes longer. It's one reason why I have no regard for them and I don't feel they indicate anything meaningful.

I saw you being bombed from a distance, must have been at the same time the torp hit, same difference you played a good game with no HP to spare at all. It reminded me a bit of my last Z-23 game before I moved on to Z-46 where I top scored and did rather a lot of mayhem having been cross dropped to 230 HP a few minutes in and finished the game alive.
