    Hizen Dockyard campaign guide

    Thanks! Some of the later ones do seem quite grindy, especially the 55k base xp mission that you need for a shipbuilding phase, but it does seem doable. Not really seeing the PR levels of nutty fruitcake here.

    They won't listen but for what it's worth, I second this.

    All the New Year's Rewards and Gifts in One Article!

    21th of January on EU. Says so near the end of the video in the article. BTW, do we know what the Hizen directives will look like yet?

    But comrade, WG is just looking out for people who might be sick, or stuck in lockdown, giving them something extra to do. Like they did last year with the PR grind. It warms the heart.

    Cpt Skill Rework: More terrible game design

    Someone new to the game, when viewing the new skill tree, would walk away with the conclusion that german BB’s were too strong and CV’s too weak. That’s how bad this is.

    Cpt Skill Rework: More terrible game design

    - Nobody asked for this; - Nobody wants this; - It has a high chance of breaking numerous ships and making the game overall much less enjoyable; - We’re getting it anyway because why listen to the playerbase for a change. WG in a nutshell.

    Is That Highest Graphics Settings?

    Look again, his resolution box is disabled because he’s running in full-screen windowed mode, which makes it run at the desktop native resolution. OP, if the settings don’t go higher, you’re at max. Given that your framerate isn’t great I really wouldn’t be looking to dial those settings even higher - in fact I’d tone them down a bit until you get something more resembling decent FPS. Also, if you are running this on a system with a single screen (laptop?) you might want to switch to standard fullscreen mode instead of windowed borderless, might buy you a small fps increase as well (windowed borderless tends to be more resource-hungry).

    No Oil coal bonuses dropping

    I really wish this stuff also accidentally really buffed AA and nerfed CV damage output, would have been fixed in 5 minutes.
  9. Sure is. Anyway, gg mate.
  10. Yea, I just dropped her too, but can't seem to find a team that doesn't die at a rate of one ship per second. The attempt after that had THROW and NOCAP ships on the enemy team while I had 42%er DD's that die instantly. Really tired of these matches that get decided on the loading screen.

    Still not refunded for santa boxes

    No worries! I saw the ticket status as "on hold" so I was worried something went wrong. Appreciate the answer, I understand this can take time.

    Is too late for Hizen?

    It's actually Tuesday, but with the recent technical issues they've been having I wouldn't be surprised if it gets delayed. https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/game-updates/update-0912-new-year/

    Is too late for Hizen?

    I do think Hizen will be one of the ships that will actually benefit from the skill rework. Since I already have both the doubloons and Yahagi in my port, as long as the rest of the grind isn't PR levels of insanity, I'll get her.

    Don't play if you can't handle EPICENTRE!!!

    Highest scoring player in a winning game has 901 basexp. And people say there's a problem with teams quality going down...

    PT 0.10.0 - Commander Skills Update

    WG, I understand that you're making skill resets free for this, and that's good. But please, with a cherry on top, please give us the option to reset and demount everyone and everything all at once. For those of us with hundreds of ships and commanders in our ports. I'm not looking forward to spending an afternoon just resetting everything... add a button in game. An opt-in on the website. Something. Thanks.

    Are you actually suggesting they use deductive reasoning at WG?

    [POLL] How Will You Use Your Coupon?

    We will see. A cruiser with SAP and MBRB is a DD killer (because the game apparently needed more of those?). DD killers win games. Pair her off with a Smaland and you got yourself a killer combo there.

    Guys it’s not a bug, it’s a feature. WG wants you all well rested for the snowflake / Hizen / Strassbourg grinds

    You mean pre-CV rework?

    [POLL] How Will You Use Your Coupon?

    Austin was announced as replacing Somers so it will likely be for steel. Which is why I’m doing the option not present in the poll - saving my coupon for that. (Already got Stalingrad, Bourgogne and Plymouth). edit: option was added, thank you @Execute0rder66
  22. Nah, Royal Nacy CL’s lose AP
  23. Good poll! An even better one would be "does anyone here actually want & is looking forward to the captain skill rework"?

    Cant access Premium store or Armoury in port?!

    To be fair, so far when they've had server issues they usually compensated people with the appropriate amount of premium time, and afaik it was given out to everyone. So, if issues last for 3 days, everyone gets 3 days premium. We'll see if they go that route again, but it wouldn't surprise me as it's been standard practice in the past.

    Cant access Premium store or Armoury in port?!

    I could be wrong but the players I’ve seen report that said that some of their accounts did have the issue, while others didn’t. My guess is they have accounts in different regions (since, afaik, you are not allowed to have multiple accounts on a single server) which use different servers. Things can be perfectly fine on NA while EU servers are down, for example.
