    Codes from TKOS twitch

    Thanks for the codes dude
  2. Hi, I just played a match with a sub (disclaimer: I don't like them but there's a mission to get coal). Anyway, I managed to do nothing b/c I don't know how to use them, and I've had a few beers and as a consequence scored zero hits. It occurred to me that if someone used a sub to bot, then WG would never pick up on it b/c you can literally do nothing apart from sail at the enemy and pick up points without getting penalised for inactivity. I'm not trying to incentivise people to check it out, I just think it's messed up that you can do that in a class and still get away with it. Seems like an AFK class to me. This was my scoresheet:

    How do Brisbane missions work?

    Just to answer my own question; you need to open the "Combat Missions" tab and it will display the modifier as "Enter a battle". For some reason, my first games always had the tab closed ( & I didn't notice it), but it seems that all recent games have the tab opened by default. Hope that's useful for someone in the future.

    How do Brisbane missions work?

    Hi, I unlocked Brisbane earlier today, and I've got a recurring mission that says this: But I can't see any effect on subsequent missions: Where's the 200% bonus? What am I missing? What am I doing wrong? I must be doing something wrong but I don't know what it is. Thanks for reading

    How do Brisbane missions work?

    Hi, Thanks for replying. I did that and it's greyed out (so I guess it worked, but it doesn't seem to register; as per my picture above (I can't see 200% anywhere)

    Suggestion: SOLO Play Mode

    Hi, I think solo mode would be an ok thing to ask for but I think it should yield a bit less XP or otherwise no-one will play co-op (apart from DD's). Really, they need to sort out co-op so it isn't all about DD's rushing the AI and wiping them out in 10 seconds. EDIT: Maybe there should be some group XP gain assuming your ship is still alive and you're still in the fight, so it incentivises staying alive and dealing damage

    Unexpected positive interaction

    Context: I was playing some brawls to get xp for my Z-46 and matchmaked with a guy who died but then was trying to help me in chat as I fought the last opponent. I ended up dying, but it was nice to have some interaction with my team that wasn't "Well Done" etc. Normally I turn chat off b/c a lot of the stuff in there is very critical and acerbic. I'm not really bad & have done well so far in this season of brawls, but it's disparaging to hear criticism from people that are already dead (in the match). Anyway, it was quite a pleasant experience & I thought I'd share here.

    More Variety Of Game Modes: PvE and PvP (Poll Included)

    Hey man, I'm not a fan of subs & CVs either, but this is some loaded poll & you have then gone on to a massive diatribe. By taking part in this, it feels like I'm part of a tinfoil hat brigade and it's detracting from the real issues, so in good conscience, I can't. Sorry ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Struggling on choosing a tech tree

    I'm one of those players who try and find cool stuff that can help me, then seek it out out & acquire it (even if it's not that useful in my current situation). I've ended up with Lutgens, Kuznetzov, Halsey, Yamamoto, Marceau, Alaska and others. I'm probably not good enough to wield them effectively, but its nice to have them in my arsenal so I can learn to play with them and hopefully be a better player (obviously using their advantages). I know I'm not a good player, but it's important to me to get some decent stuff & then I can actually learn to use it. Sorry I should have multi-quoted but I don't know how to do that on this forum.

    Struggling on choosing a tech tree

    Hey man, try not to think of it as a grind because then it becomes tedious. Just check out new things and see what works for you. I used to play PVP back in 2019, but now I'm just chilling playing Ops building up my fleet & unlocking Captains and new ships that will become really handy when I want to get back into PVP. Obv, you don't have to do anything that other people do, but it's up to you what you consider fun. BTW - Bismarck is a great ship and you can have lots of fun with her : )

    Struggling on choosing a tech tree

    Not trying to sound contra but it's quite useful when you're doing the campaigns where it only lets you progress if you have T8 - T10 ships for example. You're right in that you end up with a skewed view of how to play the game, but it can have payoffs to get unlocks/buffs from some challenges. (IMO OFC) : )

    Progress Queen of the Seas Adventure?

    They're ok, but you need to take a ship that's fast and can also dish out damage, or you end up spending approx 3x the amount of boosters that you use in randoms. (Note that you may spend the same amount of time in one random as you do in 3 co-ops but you obv spend 3x the boosters in co-op so it's up to you whether it's worth it). I'd say in terms of using boosters; if the mission allows ops, then it's probably more consistent than randoms, but if you're good at the game and Ops are off the table, then play Randoms over co-op. Co-op is only ok if it's BS missions like "get 15 captured or defended flags" etc (which partially explains the crap state of co-op b/c everyone uses it to farm ).

    Operations skill issue

    It's not too bad sometimes: I've been using them to grind through the UK BC line - getting mostly wins but having to work hard for them. There are a lot of brain dead players though. Edit: I even got top dog in one of them with my T6 XD

    Des Moines Legendary Upgrade

    Hey guys, I just finished the battlepass & noticed I had enough credit to get the Legendary upgrade for the DM. Just in case anyone reads it in future, I'd say it's worth it.. To give you some background, I only ground out the DM because I was grinding Halsey in coop & it was super-boring but then I noticed that there's 2 missions that award 3 stars. One is for CV (not something I like), but the other was 3 stars if you get 10 mil creds in an American T10 Cruiser. There was a couple of other unrelated missions I did on the way but eventually, I ended up with DM and started using it. (BTW, I free-xp'd past the Buffalo - it was so weird compared to the other line & I couldn't deal with it). In my opinion, DM is pretty cool - you can give the enemy 2/3 of your total firepower if you angle & not get smacked significantly. I still thought can be boring though as you have to be really regimented so you don't get hit back in a bad way & can still deal some damage. Once I got the upgrade though, it feels like its a destroyer in terms of maneuverability and it's good fun to play. (Ok it feels like a big fat destroyer) EDIT: Having the radar makes sense in that you have the maneuverability to get somewhere useful and radar opposition DD's whereas before, it felt like you have this great cruiser which does well at range, but it really needs to get forward to use rader but then you get end up in situations where you can get easily wrecked. IDK, maybe I'm not a good player, but the Leg Upgrade really helps. (End EDIT) BTW, I should make a caveat that I used to play PVP (back in 2019) but since I've got back into the game I usually play coop/ops b/c I can't really deal with people ragging on me.. I'm not a super-potato, and I do best using destroyers. Maybe one day I'll get back into PVP (which was very fun), but there's a personal issue where I hate reading the BS stuff people post up in chat. It pisses me off and I end up switching the game off & playing something else. I've turned chat off but then I can't hear anything that my team-mates have said in good faith wrt gameplay. Anyway, that's another issue. What I wanted to say is DM legendary = good! (IMO obv) Thanks for reading

    What were your most embarassing moments in WoWs?

    Progress Queen of the Seas Adventure?

    @OldschoolGaming_YouTube Don't make the mistake I made & thought a show called "Loose Women" was p0rn for people like me screened in daytime television. Turns out it was loads of boomer ladies talking about nonsense. I was so disappointed I can tell you XD Here it is (just so you know it's a real thing and not some BS I've made up to mess with you) BTW, don't watch it. It's cr4p.

    Brisbane - Cheapest way to acquire it

    I was going to do it until I realised you have to play all of them in sequence & then need to get additional pirate tokens. I don't have the time or willpower for this one.
  22. That was my point in the first place, but I didn't feel the need to join the dots
  23. If they do that, they should probably draw a line, so that you can play 1980's destroyer being Exorceted, or you can play 1940's ships shooting each other.

    Next premium battlepass? Will you get it?

    The rewards don't really justify paying for the upcoming one - I don't even think I'll pay for the current one tbh.

    Have they ever trialled minimap only on the PTS?
