    Border Surfers

    Well, Cows and Horses get a shock.... In WoWs you can border slide in either direction whilst maintaining angling and still shooting... which isn't much of a shock...in fact, it isn't one at all. "Reduced engine power" is kinda pointless when the purpose of the border slider is to stay on the border and keep sliding - they literally don't want to come off the border, so the "penalty" isn't one. Watching people slide left and right to maintain angles and carry on shooting.... so, so, so scummy.

    Really, there is little point engaging some "people".... they hold their own "truths" which never seem to include the bits where they are entirely wrong. In fact they appear to be little other than algorithms , spamming distraction techniques as admission of wrong, proof of facts - none of these things bother them in the slightest. You can show these bots absolute truths and they still wont budge.... some of them keep on with claims like "2.5 million people play this game" or that "desync isn't real, its just lag". Essentially the best thing to do with these bot-like posters is put them on ignore - it makes the forums much easier to read for one thing as the total number of posts to read drops by 50% and the quality of posts skyrockets proportionally.

    This CB season's gotta be the worst one ever

    Cant get a team together atm... nobody is particularly interested in playing without a CV, of our 2 good CV players, one isn't playing (bored of the game) and the other working... DD players dont want to play without a CV, BB players dont want to be a Pinata in a CV meta and of those with X Cruisers most are bored already. so NO CW for us.

    Down yet again

    I would like compensation in the form of removing all CVs from the game please.

    wierd gameplay

    This Yeah, actually, they do. they hacked WeeGee to make you look bad? Yes, objectively, you are crap at the game, as are many others. This isn't irreversible as I was also crap at the game until I joined a clan that told me I was crap, then set about fixing that. It does, however, require firstly the recognition that you are crap and should go back to much lower tiers, and then quite a lot of work, watching videos, learning how to shoot, where to go on maps, tactics and lots of things that your statistics indicate that you utterly lack any awareness of. This may seem harsh, but, remember, I too was completely crap at this game, just like you are now. Self Awareness is the starting point.

    Wow, a potential fix for a problem that the illustrious ColonelPete stated didn't exist., people were imagining, was net latency, stupidity, goblins or pixies...anything but WeeGee's fault.... Gosh, whodathunkiteh?

    Devs fix the the damn map border abuse

    "Abuse of a game mechanic is the definition of cheating." I shall now quote you from another thread in which you posted the following to another forum member: "It is better not to start a discussion when you lack arguments in general..." Try taking your own advice chap. /enabling ignore feature of forum

    Devs fix the the damn map border abuse

    Speed reduction at the border is the current attempt to fix a recognised problem - is the uncomfortable truth that it is already seen by WeeGee as a problem that requires fixing too much for you to accept in your perpetual state of devotion...? Strawman Arguments and deflection might work well for Trump rallies and Creationists but not here I'm afraid... you will just get called out on them...and rightly so.

    Devs fix the the damn map border abuse

    I don't see it that I'm afraid - the game is designed to be fought within a map area, not within a map area plus a cheese border. If you are forced onto the map edge then you've done something wrong or have been chased down - there should not be a cheesey method for prolonging your personal fight at that point, against the successful chase of those pursuing you. You got caught or you messed up - now it ends. I play a lot of cruisers, I've been in that situation and I deserve to die, not be able to slide back and forth, dodging torps and shots, or going undetected whilst I can potentially, and unfairly kill somebody by utilizing map-edge exploits. I call that a rather blatant Strawman Argument and will highlight the fact for everybody to chuckle over its inanity and obviousness. Well done.

    That simply moves the problem, it wont fix it.

    Devs fix the the damn map border abuse

    You give them 20 seconds to get off the border after which you reduce their reload rate on weapons to zero-use and set their concealment to their maximum gun-bloom range. That will stop the abuse of it dead in its tracks. We recently lost a CW fight as two of the opposition blatantly cheated by sliding along the border, moving back and forth sideways (which you can do if you know how to cheese it) its cheating and those who dont want it fixed are people who have no real love of a fair fight, and no doubt cheese it themselves all the time. People like the Corporal just don't like to see anything whatsoever negative said about the game, even if it means not fixing something that is broken, their love affair with WeeGees Omnipotence blinds them to a lot of issues that not only should be fixed but could be fixed pretty easily.

    This CB season's gotta be the worst one ever

    Cant imagine how it wouldn't be significant given the currnet server numbers. In a way, it is a shame as it will no doubt be used to prove that "CVs in ClanWars results in highest participation ever" propaganda somewhere down the line. *sigh*

    ....except CorporalPete apparently... Odd it's really apparent during the Korona Krinklies Krisis and heavy server loads..."gosh" do you think it might be linked?!!! ¬_¬

    Boring season anyway chap, you're not missing much.
  17. Its £67.50 for 360 days.. and that's beside the point - subscriptions should offer discounts... it's known as an "incentive". Indeed, he would.
  18. There are subscription fees - its called "Premium time", but in classic WG form, even if you buy it in bulk it is never discounted.... so there's f-all point subscribing. "Subscribe here and save sweet-fanny-adam!" They are genius-level Marketeers at WeeGee.
  19. Yes, that is precisely what he asked for, well done, +1for your reading comprehension score.

    This CB season's gotta be the worst one ever

    So bored, the clan gave up playing.... CVs spot any attempt to do something "clever" or "Different"...and practically every game is the same. Boring AF
  21. Lets do some ballistics huh? PetroBlanzgard Ap 220mm guns- 18km Armour Pen: 387mm Venezia AP: 203mm Guns 18km: Armour Pen: 190mm Goliath AP Pen 234mm Guns 18km (if) : Armour Pen: 160mm Des Moines 203mm AP Pen 18KM: 159mm Hmm.... PetroBlanzgard Ap 220mm guns- 18km flgiht time: 8.36s Venezia AP: 203mm Guns 18km: flgiht time: 10.24s Goliath AP Pen 234mm Guns 18km (if) : flgiht time: 13.46s Des Moines 203mm 18KM: 14.02 s Hmm... Wow, those Russians sure did know how to build better warship guns than anybody else didn't they?
  22. Because literally none of that is needed - its a hugely powerful ability and it requires nothing active to achieve. You could compare it to Yamamoto - but, of course, that requires a KRAKEN. And every other Captain is required to do SOMETHING, whilst Biasnetsov can do, literally, nothing at all but be shot at and proc his hugely powerful "ability", afk, in spawn. If you are trying to tell everybody that this is a mere coincidence that it happens to be a Russian Captain, then I refer you to my previous comment regarding horse-worn visual apparatus. Its a bit like the "coincidence" of Russian ships often having the best ballistics of any Nation out there, "prove it makes a difference" you will say.... Or Kremlin OP-ness in its "coincidentally" best deck armour schemes... the coincidentally "poor long range dispersion (that isn't)" or the "coincidentally" buffed Nevsky and PetraBalanzgrad penetration, range and sigma. Or the longest range radar, or the best range AA, or the oddly excellent smoke-firing penalties compared to Italian ships, or the oddly excellent concealment on skyscraper sized ships... the "that's useful" icebreaker bows on russianships, whilst removing the "it actually existed and was real" bow protection on Agir. I guess all of these "coincidences" require "proof" for them to show Russian Bias also? Or, merely, the fact that WG claim to "balance" as close to historical ships as they can, but instead of introducing some of the thousands of historical ships we get another "fairly tale" fake Russian cruisers line.... not too mention the "Russian Minotaur" that has smoke, torps, hydro AND HE - something the mino cant have as its "too powerful".... and it practically couldn't be citadelled etc etc etc Bias exists and its called Ivan AnotherOPski Shipski
