NothingButTheRain

It was free after the rework got released. Iirc it was free for the duration of an entire patch. I agree with having a freew respec be nice after major skill changes (I play clan battles so I got a free respec right now), but there has actually been a free respec for everyone. Just once that is

And the difficulty with "knowing" that the other is "coward" or "camping" by just reading the minimap is not a talent that the majority of players posess

I watch his streams a lot and he does get chatbanned a lot. Usually he does realise it is his own fault as he is well aware of the consequences even though he probably believes he is entitled to his behavior. But at least he accepts his fate instead of (what I see some others do) making a fuss about it, proclaiming to be an innocently murdered angel in distress and trying to make as much noise as they can to get the attention they apparently need.

If you (or anyone else for that matter) is discontent about what a teammate is doing and wants to turn this around into something constructive, the only thing that can actually work is to tell or ask the person (by name is preferred) if they can go to a specific spot of if they can come help you cap B or to "just run" as your team will win on points anyway. Try to direct them by stating simple things and try so in a neutral way because the usual respons from someone who just got flamed is either the person shuts down and loses focus which will cause him to just misplay more, to start a flamewar with you which will make the situation only worse for the greens, you will get reported, or maybe a combination of these. But just being clear and neutral is generally speaking the most optimal way to go about this.

Afaicr both complimenting and reporting divmates never worked.

He used the commrose, for some reason. I never see him spamming using any of the F-keys. Anyway, I've never been chatbanned so far and have heard no reports from anyone about them having been chatbanned. I do get reported for whatever reason, but that's kinda usual during the weekends. I even got the "You were reported!" message, which may be the first time this year I received it. And honestly, it is probably because I was the last in my team alive while being chased by 5 reds and with some BB players being discontent about something. It happens, I can always escape to playing operations I guess

Well they could do some other steel event like they did last year. I mean they also sold steel. And the snowflake event by itself was by far not enough to get the steel one would need. It sure helped me towards getting the Black, but I also play some ranked and mostly clan battles. But tbf, I don't like either game mode too much because ranked is a mindless grindfest with usually more frustration which makes it feel more like a job and clan battles is kinda nasty when it's a tier 10 one because the best ship for clan battles is one which you need to get by...winning..which is harder if you don't have the ship and this pissed off a lot of my clanmates But if one only plays PvE, tough luck, you can still get the NTC reward ships

And my point is that both randoms and ranked can be seen as both a mindless grindfest and competitive play. I really don't understand how you are not copying this, but apparently you're just trying to get YOUR point across and you don't really care about the opinion of others. Randoms is not by definition exclusively grinding and ranked/clan battles is not exclusively competitive play. And you seem to have been unable to see this point and stared yourself blind on getting your own point across. Anyway, time to block you since the last months every quote of yours is too much elitism for me to have to bother with.

I'm still sceptical about the change made to Conq, but so far I have noticed hardly any difference in effectiveness. I played Conq a lot before this change (I shall just call it change for the time being), but the DoY change is very much apparent as Narai is mostly brawling and this change to the high tier Brit BBs have turned them into longer range spammers now because of their citadel changes. And yes, it's overmatch, I was angled at all times.

@Crysantos @MrConway You know...it's behavior like this which makes me not want to even visit these forums anymore. And I'm pretty sure that some new players will end up not even bothering anymore. I think the people who I quoted (not the ones that I @ -ed) should be ashamed of themselves. Come on. Maybe he's just dumb, but it's none of your business following him around in all the threads he creates and posting stuff like that. In my eyes the people I quoted are worse and are the the actual problem.

If you hate this guy so much, just put him on your ignore list?

I like the idea of the 19pt captain filter Few other ideas here are nice as well, but I can manage without them. I'd like some new operations, like the channel dash and maybe some kind of carrier operation. Or maybe put Sunray back into the game as a permanent operations! I'd like some tech tree line splits and a couple ones I'd look out for in particular (BC splits for instance). I'd very much like a scenario editor in the game so I can create my own scenarios.

He is right you know.

Alaska is a good ship. I recently took her out again and had a lot of fun with her!

Well, if I only got it to play operations with and suddenly it turned into a pile of gung, obviously I wouldn't be happy about it. It basically changed for nothing, except that it takes a LOT more damage now. Still the same guns, still the same poor rear turret angle, same handling. Sure it's got a heal more but that heal loses it's effectiveness once you start receiving any citadels and this ship now receives a lot of them. Well, I guess I still got Scharnhorst and Sinop left, but this change turned DoY into a mess.

Yes, because obviously if you don't understand something, then it doesn't exist Anyway, if you want to believe that random battles require absolutely zero competitive grind, by all means, keep believing that

Ow absolutely not! It's now wayyyy inferior. I mean just look at my practical experience with this thing? Your theoretical analyses and your hidden stats are not apparant to me at all. It's way worse now. And the AP angles were the same before and the casemate heal is NOT for citadel damage.

I didn't read everything here, but for narai, DoY is now ruined. I get citadelled through the nose and front by the Mo regardless of how good I angle. It's a LOT less useful ship now. DoY turned from "ok" to "kinda crap" in this latest patch, wth? Let me put it this way: DoY is now a LOT less comfortable for me to play. I nearly died and needed to stick with the repair circle just so I could heal back a total of 50% of my max health, with just 1 heal left to spare for the harbor bit. The back turret has very poor turret angles, I'm really disliking this change to this premium ship and if it fails like this again I'm gonna remove it from my primary ships and give some feedback about the change to a ship I grinded my [edited]off for.

Just to reiterate, aren't the consumables in WoT also costing credits? Been a while since I last played it, but iirc those consumables still costed credits? Could be wrong though.

Well, Yamasashi and Rogue Wave Benham have vastly different gun sounds. I wonder how you could mix them up? But I played the Yamasashi and the savage battles a LOT, so I can easily tell the difference.

I like this baguetteflake event!

Stop telling them all of our secrits!

So yesterday I was being a, well, something with dumb and something with a certain intimate activity, but with a pair of scissors I managed to snip a V-shape into the top of my W-spam finger exactly where my finger presses the keyboard but I still managed to ge the second crate by just spamming coop! How is that, you little RNG gods!

You missed my point. Granted, it was not easy to find. My point is, one can spam ranked couple hundred times each time and get enough steel for steel ships. And one can also spam randoms and get to tier 10 with a 38% winrate. This here can be said about both...or neither
