    Matchmaker Discussion Thread & MM Balance

    Blame Seattle or MM. I am doing good in her and can't win much as well. As long as your PR is good or better you will start wining. WG has some crazy MM patents playing with MM and WR. Just wait it out, play best you can and bad series will end soon. DDs or CVs if you are good in them are best to break out of this .

    Matchmaker Discussion Thread & MM Balance

    It's true, but for non unicum like me, playing solo nearly all the time it's a very hard labour to carry all those sacks of potato. Can be done in a CV, a DD or a good cruiser even but for the love of RNGsus I can't pull it in a high tier BB. No matter what I do I feel that I have not much of influence on the outcome of the battle. But I am a poor BB player so it is possible that I am often in one of those bags. Or maybe it is a class specific. Or both.

    Tons of Coal with nothing to spend it on..

    WG did charity event, you could get both for 300 bucks. Just saying...

    Just give up on IJN torpedo boats?

    If he goes yolo like this he is doomed.Ping him and yours support should kill him unless you went without support or overextended, then it was your fault. If you played smart you can smoke and his gun bloom should keep him spotted by you team mates so even you can open fire safetly and IJN HE hits hard. Unless you are border hugging 20km shima, do not bother by the others too much, spot for them and they will be ok. DO NOT YOLO DIE!!! Do not go parallel, random torpedo can finish you, safest way is to go straight in but in reverse, close to island. If something goes bad you can speedboost away behind the land cover fast or smoke (depending on what spotted you Cv, DD, or radar).

    Decisions decisions decisions

    But hel gets PR, he asks about steel TX not t7 Gorizia. Did you even read? OP. If you have to spend yours steel get Somers for CB, torps have good range, there's plenty of them and you do not need guns for CB. USA smoke is always good for team. Your clan has plenty of Stalins and you do not like it, so what the point in getting one. French BB is fun from what I've seen in randoms, but then not much use in CB and if you do not play much TX random games it is a waste. So either Somers or hold your steel and wait. You can try PR in CB as well.
  6. Finally I've got Henri IV. Why so late??? It's like Zao on steroids. What a marvellous flanking boat! First solo warrior in ages also. First 2 games were nothing special, I won but I've played carefully trying to get used to the handling, guns etc. 3rd and 4th games started to show potential. I am still far away from 200-300k games from YT but over 100-200k is very easy. I still play her too carefully, stopping unnecessary behind islands sometimes when I should just keep on going and shooting instead. I need to try front and back trolling. I kitted her with double rudder with a speed boost coal mod plus reload and IFHE, but I love AP too as it hits cruisers like a train. Loads of fun. All the good that t9 and t8 had is multiplied here. The only thing I do not like is counter showing often 8 at the beginning as soon as I am spotted and being the first one to be shot at, but it has the the speed and troll armour to deal with this kind of drawbacks. And big potential damage means more XP.
  7. I will end at 25th or 26Th step as it says. (Can't remember exactly). Not that I want it I have Alaska and not like it really. I don't like BBs and battlecruisers TBH. I have too many ships already to play anyway.

    Smolensk Not OP

    If anything they are prime example in AA skills being useless as everyone runs BFT and AFT on them.
  9. Lootboxer

    Why AA skills are worthless

    Not how often they hit makes them unicums as much as what, where. for how long and with what ammo makes them.
  10. Lootboxer

    Why AA skills are worthless

    And that's the problem as It is not a gradual skill increase - learning curve like in all other classes. It's 0/1 threshold separating bad and rest of CV players with relatively small part still in the process of learning how to dodge/messing up sometimes. And from the point of view of average CV player it may even make a sense but from the point of view of surface player it doesn't as his skills are left out of equation. CV is either good and you are in a big problem regardless of yours skills or he sucks and you are in a small problem regardless or your lack of skills.

    [CV] Wrong threshold for damage caused / negative income

    Burn red CV of course

    Ranked sprint - "any non-cv" vs CV

    On the ocean going full speed for me and because I am not really good in CVs. All I needed was more time to kill you before you killed me. With more skill I'd get you first. With him I did not attack him. I just sat there next to island like in usual campy battle. Anyway maybe you want to try with someone better then me?

    [CV] Wrong threshold for damage caused / negative income

    They are only a big problem when I am low in bb and I want to go dark and heal but CV says: no, time to die.

    Ranked sprint - "any non-cv" vs CV

    I tried with @Odo_Toothless in a training room des moines vs furious. He was able to strike me repetitevly without any problem. I needed both sector and def AA to deny completely only 2 aircrafts attacking me!

    [CV] Wrong threshold for damage caused / negative income

    To all new CV captains. Do not listen to them dirty unicums. They say that because they are jealous of yours big damage numbers. Keep farming bbs. My dds are hard to hit and have very low hp. It means no credits for you. Remember small boats are not really worth the effort.

    Premium ships you really shouldn't get ?

    This month I've got 2 best ships one can get from crates. Sirocco and Yahagi. Now I say get them when they get reduced prices for avoiding situations like you had with Huang Che or Ho or whatever it is called. . Never ever sell premiums no matter how bad they are. Or they will be back in a no time by surprise mechanics instead of nice OP boats that all of us desire. That is if you want to play lootbox lottery and win something of a value. If not avoid at any cost.

    Potyczki klanowe

    Mi też się podobało bardzo. 0 kampy i dużo radochy i śmiechu. W dodatku mimo przypadkowego składu, fajnie nam szło i trochę srebrików przybyło, po ostatnim odkupowaniu oktretów dla śnieżynek przydało się. Niestety 12stu to chyba nie zbierzemy.

    Cheat or buyable mod

    You do not understand it's next to impossible to cheat this way ie number of torps, as all damage is calculated on servers. Find replay and post here as attachment and we wll be happy to tell you what's happened.
  19. Lootboxer

    Cheat or buyable mod

    Replay or it didn't happen. Something you are missing, no way to send 20 torps in any DD in less than full minute. You are missing something and I doubt that someone could hack WG servers. BTW: You can tank 18 torps but low damage ones from Sims maybe.

    Low Tier Ships - Whats your favourite ?

    1 Used to be Vampire, now British T3 is even stronger. 2 Yubari for accuracy alone. 3 Clubson for crazy firepower for a DD. 4 Orion as it's still OP All those unless 5 Hosho decides you all
  21. I do not know, something was wrong, unless MM takes Tirpitz as a cruiser because of torpedoes. Faced mostly them in my Edinburg and Atago. Same about Cossack, probably because of hydro it was mistaken for cruiser and always matched against German CAs. Played all the same, full yolo, rinse and repeat. Unless matched against the same class, then it was interesting and fun mostly.

    0.9.0 PTS - British Cruiser Event

    I've uninstalled PTS after summers event with free T6. Totally no point in testing new, what? Directives? Lootboxes? Maybe I'd reinstall PTS if I could actually test new lines there. But for "reasons" I can not. So why bother? For a few useless flags and camos? Besides WG has our feedback deeply in . Game quality is even worse then on live server, most of players are there only to try high tier ships that they have not researched yet so you shouldn't be surprised m8. Imagine ranked in a team with rentals only That's what it is there mostly.
  23. Real fun even with CVs. (without would be probably even better) One ship of each class makes fun and engaging quick battles with different games. Caps are very important as points tick very fast. So games are quick paced without camping. A bit yolo actually We've played with random clan mates, mostly new to competitive with a line consisting of Lexi, Massa/KII, Radar Edin, Aki. One thing i do not understand is how and why our rating was going up and down after each won battle, but who cares. Nearly 1mln credits after each won battle with only standard $ flag was a big plus. Rarely recently I can say something positive about the game and WG, but this time thumbs up guys. More staff like this please. Not like the next round with 12 vs 12 madness, we can't get 12 guys ready for clan brawl, we barely could get 8. Not many clans will participate in the last round.

    [PSA] Clan Brawl Issues of December 21

    We've played 8 vs 8 here. WTF? Was it not how it's supposed to be? if so what about the compensation? You've advertised it as 9vs9, we thought that you've changed it last minute?
