    Arsenal

    What is jumbo frames? Is it some website program? I never heard of it. What deos it do? And how does this matter in case of the Arsenal? I'm not getting this? Where do I change this IPV4 thing? Where is the MTU=1500 thing and the store=persistent thing?

    Any news about upcoming tech trees?

    For some reason it does kinda fit in with the IJN, and how they tended to operate.

    Where is summer sale WG?

    Maybe an odd question, but why did you get a little hill of doubloons in the first place when you know you have nothing to spend them on? Iirc there were sales of premium ships in the tech tree. I'm not really sure what WG's policy is regarding the addition of newer premiums to the tech tree (especially when they decided to remove most of them).

    Operation Cherry Blossom - Your First thoughts?

    It will be interesting to see how this scenario developes once all those USA radar cruisers drop out, with which this scenario is fiilled to the brink. Even had a game of only Clevelands, that was hillarious This mission ends tomorrow, so I'd expect a drop in Cleve+Balti usage and thus fewer radar and DefAA ships. CM is a great ship and my personal favorite of the 3 cruisers I could use for this ops, but the lack of DefAA does make an all-CM PUG less then optimal for this ops.

    Suggestions thread

    I like this suggestion I use the "primary ship" feature extensively and would've wanted something like "secondary ship", a second order of importancy label but a reserve fleet label would work for me as well
  6. I think part of the reason why it is easier to notice AFK DDs is because at the start of the match people tend to focus them (and not just in the red team). On top of that, an AFK BB player is much less obvious due to BBs being much more sluggish and slower to start moving/turretturning. Usually loadtimes are dependent on the storage media. Saying your PC is 7 years old matters relatively little regarding loading times, at the most it may matter somewhat due to unpacking of files. But like you mentioned yourself, adding an SSD is BY FAR the best way to aleviate loading times I should get one myself lol Whenever I ALT+TAB out, it starts flashing once the countdown reached zero and the battle starts (good feature btw!). Though I actually do check BB turrets, actually quite regularly. It tells me if a BB is waiting and watching the start of the game develop before they make up their minds (I suspect this is a bit more often (but not always!) a less experienced player who is insecure about what part of the map to go towards).

    Operation Cherry Blossom - Your First thoughts?

    Nope, noticed no such difference lately, including the scenario battles I played yesterday.

    Roast the previous poster's stats

    Played thousands of battles, and you're still not improving Something like that?

    Adding Space containers to Arsenal

    I think this would fit better in the suggestions thread. But otherwise...I'm also still missing one patch, the one similar to this here:
  10. NothingButTheRain

    Finally, the 200% is over. Now I can go back to winning.

    It's kinda odd now, I'll miss it But it was great, finally gotten my very first tier 10 boat And thanks to the fxp I gained I could easily skip the rest of that dreadful Izumo

    What Were Your Greatest Gaming Achievements Today ?

    Am kinda having the same 'problem', but can't actually purchase a tier 9 cruiser due to lack of credits and lack of ecxp for to move a captain around. And also because I now got this:

    Where is summer sale WG?

    I have noticed a distinctive lack of missions this month from after the 200% week and the 12th....perhaps perhaps
  13. Reason #1 was the reason for me to ask why the average winrate was so low. Reason #2 seems obvious to me, but I don't know what your point is except for stating something that is kinda obvious to me anyway. Reason #3 is a good one, though I didn't consider draws could be way more common in the old days. I knew about draws being counted as losses, but to me it wouldn't explain why it is so much below 50% average. There isn't much to argue about the top of the average damage chart, it's CVs that are leading the pack here Your point wasn't to agree that it's supposedly a close call between BB and CV, your point was a question: I explained this. How is this not understandable to you? And if your real account has a forum ban, didn't you get one for a good reason? The OP didn't specifically adress BBs underperforming by raw damage, it was more about the HE spamming mechanic and how it is presenting itself compared to how it used to be. And besides, the raw damage figures give a bit a skewed result due to cruisers doing more damage vs destroyers then battleships do, as said earlier. ANd the Bismarck does have terrible accuracy, I kinda find it hard to hit anything with it (currently grinding Bismarck, though I'm considering quitting that line for now, mostly due to its poor accuracy).
  14. But some results have to be counted, or there'd be nothing left to count. Since there are stats it's evident that at least some of the stats are counted. But my question was, are all stats counted? This question has however already been answered (at least partially) due to the game being different in old times (no mirrored CV MM) and some stats being hidden.
  15. Whats BBS? In top 10, yes, but that wasn't what you said. CVs are in the top and only 1 BB slightly above and 1 BB slightly below. All other BBs are 10k dmg below or even lower. I suppose you just don't like my point of view because of this: Yes that's you. A reroll account with padding of CV play. Is this why you critisize me? So CV gameplay isn't critisized anymore? Good thing the CV rework is coming And besides, the average tier 10 CV damage is higher then the average tier 10 BB damage, so it seems obvious that CV is in fact, topping this chart of yours. Also, since cruisers are probably doing more damage vs DDs, wouldn't it make sense for them to have lower average damage compared to BBs? BBs's main target seem to be more cruisers (out in the open mostly) and other BBs.
  16. So if player one played 5000 games in the USS Makeitup with an average winrate of 45% and player two played 1 battle in the USS Makeitup with an average winrage (lol) of 100%, the 100% and 45% have the same weight when taking these averages? Imo this seems to scew results, if this is how it's measured
  17. Except that it's actually the carriers that are topping the damage charts. And when looking at the #1 spot, it's a cruiser (though seemingly with few battles). The only BB that tops CVs is a BB that does mostly fire damage, which can be healed back. Btw, how can both tier 10 CVs have such low win rate?

    Please some info!

    There are quite a bit of people here who used to play WoT, but got fed up with it for a variety of reasons (me being one of them). Yes, WoT is pay4fun/pay2win and greedy, but WoWS is more lenient in this regard. You can still get unlucky and get nothing from these crates (I wasn't as fortunate with the FB code as some of the other players here), but the daily containers can also give some nice stuff. You can still spend large amounts if you wanted to, just like in WoT, but I find it easier to be competitive without having to overspend in this game then was possible in WoT. Yes, you gotten a couple (nice!) premiums, Atlanta can be a blast to play in coop, enjoy!

    Rituals before WoWs session

    I guess some of my teammates might be these people What is Kancolle music?

    10 point american comander

    I'd agree with this. I'd also recommend having Conceilment Expert skill on any cruiser captain (preferably from tier 5, it can make life a lot easier as you don't have a spotted range that is basically your maximum gun range).
  21. NothingButTheRain

    Hard to Play with High Tier Destroyers!!!

    But then you'd need to give DD hunter cruisers jammer scramblers as well or they get torped too easily

    Suggestions thread

    Hi. I have a suggestion. Get rid of the Izumo, it's truely the first ship that gives me thoughts of actually quitting this game. Yes it's that bad. Delete it from the game and from all memory banks, thank you.

    Which forum members have you seen in random battles?

    'Ran' into @fumtu in his Colorado while doing some warming up in my Mutsu. Not much to say, it was a 'slow' game, we had a nice little chat, till next time
  24. NothingButTheRain

    Updated operations

    I did see the Nelson, I remember setting it on fire a couple times. Also seen a NO but it was guarding the CV? Can't remember the French ships though.

    Which forum members have you seen in random battles?

    Well, I just ran into @MortenTardo again, this time he was divving with @Reaper_JackGBR (no idea if he reads the forum, but there you go). The battle started witha formal greet and then turned into this: Not often that I break my "being targetted by enemy randoms" twice ina single battle and live to tell the tale I'm not sure what happened, but it was a real steamroll, there was nothing I could do, most were tier 10 and here I was! The sad part is that, as can be seen in my Izumo game from earlier, tanking for the team seems to do nothing for one's xp Bismarck is not gonna happen today... I hope next time we will finally be in the same team, god **|#**@@ Cya later
