    The art direction of maps and ports is seriously depressing

    Darn. And I deleted my 7.10 backup client just yesterday, which may have contained these files. You could probably create this port if you have these files stahsed away somewhere. Yes, it will be a pain in the but but at least you wouldn't have to wait for someone else to do it.

    Recruiting Station Initiative - a Quick Look.

    Or how my friend asks me what I am waiting for while I wait for my ui to un-lockup so I can actually send our div into a battle...only to be greeted by yet another bottom tier game with at least 1 carrier. And the occasional game where we are top tier without double carrier we often get a team of gluelickers which is impossible to carry when divving up with a friend who doesn't even have a 10pt captain yet. Not to mention the Kamikazes or some of the other OP premiums (along with experienced players) kinda making the end results predetermined regardless of my efforts spend in the game. I'm not bluffing when I say that he (the friend who reinstalled wows to div with me) was not liking the game too much. There's just too many carriers and too many games where we end up in tier 8 battles with our tier 6 ships. Lets just say that it did not give him a very good impression of the game.

    Abuse

    Once they stop I reply with something along the lines of "That's it! Keep it up! :D" or "Was that everything?" and hope they start a second volley. Or I tell them it's for my copy+paste fun montage for to open up and look at for a laugh.On occasion I actually did the report via the website, but usually I just add them to the blacklist (which the ui hates me for).I'm ok with people wanting to unwind, but not anymore if it goes against my own process of unwinding.Sometimes I even trigger them some more if I happen to see a weakspot. Sometimes ego's are more fragile then glass. I even once (or twice or trice? ) took the effort to track down their clan TS and paid them a visit there. In one case the flames got put out kinda, but usually they don't really care. They were always surprised btw. And nowdays I got lazy and just put them on my bl as soon as I suspect to see trouble, even when the battle is not finished yet. Seems to work pretty well, I probably have most of these offenders on my bl these days (or that's what I tell myself at least)

    What will you spend your "Provision Tokens" on?

    Is the Murmansk actually worth getting? After last patch I decided to take a break and play on a more minimal level. Only ended up spending some more time ingame due to some friends starting some play in wows and me divving up with them. So far spend all tokens into the crates as I think the rewards seem pretty good for these crates and because Murmansk..ehh, why get it?

    Where is the promissed ARP hide in port?

    And multiple first wins a day, (maybe) snowflakes and the collector badge. And to have the only other ships in the game that can glow in the dark and is not a Wooster with 'that' camo EDIT: And can actually use identical ships with different (troll) setups without the need to mount/unmount upgrades. And however small these benefits may be, it's still benefits

    You should've given them to me :|

    New twitch drops - epic drop

    I've not received any of the superloot. Did get 2 normal twitch crates and some missions, even though I don't really know where the latter really came from as there's supposedly multiple sources for those (including codes).

    Deletion of replays

    Yes @MrConway @Tuccy @Crysantos Yes. You perhaps guessed right, gentlemen. Deleted again. Great stuff! What the HELL is needed to prevent this game from deleting my replays time and time again? Is there absolutely no reliable way to prevent the game from deleting my stuff without my consent? This problem keeps resurfacing again and again. This is sickening, I never gave permission to the game to delete my stuff! It simply renamed the preferences file that I had set to read only, renaming it with something like killme, which implies that the game is actually purposefully circumventing ways to prevent these files from being saved and I don't want that. And I don't want the only option to reliably prevent the game from doing so is to remove the game from my harddrive. Fix this BS! There's been ample time by now!

    What Were Your Greatest Gaming Achievements Today ?

    Got my second permacamo today and also got the time-off that I think I deserve. Kinda odd to "have to take a break from a game" but it's been coming for a while now. At least I still got some premiumtime left which I don't want to go to waste, but I'm not enjoying grinding anymore. At least the camo looks good on Chapa (don't have Vladi so can't actually see it mounted for myself for now) and the stars on the turrets are real nice for enemy CV to know where to aim their bombs just like IJN carriers during WW2

    Resetting AA sector management immediately

    I basically stopped bothering with the sectors since overall it doesn't seem to matter that much anyway.
  11. This weekend was really really bad for some reason. I had the usual ALL CAPS C***ER messages post battle from a (teammate) Hindenburg after I had played a game in my Jutland and frankly I have absolutely no idea why he chose to target me, I didn't even remember the guy from during battle, it was as if it was just an anonymous prank or something. Was a while since I last put someone on my blacklist but there's always a cozy spot for more mor(e)ons But usually it's mostly about WHY U NO SUPPORT! from teammate DDs who don't understand that my BB is not a fracking speedboat

    SOME,,,,,, clan members not shooting clan members

    I will shoot clanmembers (on the enemy team ) just the same like I will shoot normal plebs And I expect them to do the same to me. In the end it's all about having fun, right? I can definitely understand clanmates not shooting each other. but provided it's not about rigging and just a purely coincidental connect within normal mm, I can understand. It's usually fun to see clanmembers (or forumites for instance) greet each other regardless of team color

    Minotauer and Jean Bart need Anti-Air nerf

    How about no?
  14. Especially with premium time, making credits in coop is not hard. I almost always make a profit in coop, even tiers 9 and 10. It helps a lot that I don't use any premium consumables, they are really not needed for coop. Sure, it makes it a little bit harder but it's perfectly workable and I don't loose anything except maybe the time to play the game. And there aren't any carriers in coop in the enemy team, for now, so enjoy it while you can

    Stop blaming your mistakes on missing air support

    Would've been more accurate if it had been

    Is this a hack or game flaw??

    Replay?

    Do you actually read the chat?

    OP better make every day my comment retains its validness count

    Proposal: colored signal flares + admiral mini-game

    I kinda like your ideas. Not a fan of idea #2 though
  20. It is theoretically possible to flag certain accounts so they get different RNG. I cannot imagine some company not already actually done this by giving new players better RNG in, for instance, lootboxes.

    Bomb reticle jumping when losing planes

    This is actually what I was reading this thread for. If DefAA messes up with aiming like it used to, it would make it a lot more useful overall.
  22. Frankly, when playing through the RN DDs, I ended up playing it more like a utility for the fleet and not a lone torp or dakka boat. As a result, my damage was comparatively low except for destroying enemy DDs, but I did notice that even if I did hardly anything except spotting enemy torps, resetting and capping and maybe 2k damage, I could still get huge amounts of XP per battle. Getting XP for utility stuff like capping may depend on what class one plays. I do agree that WG should 'help' players that are trying to go for the win instead of for their own damage numbers.
