Dutchy_2019

No Dockyard ships have appeared in the Premium shop so far, and AFAIK they also have not been included in Super Containers or Loot Boxes of any kind.

So if I understand the current DevBlog correctly: If I currently HAVE Friesland in the PanEU tree and will lever here there beyond 0.10.7, I can still at some point get Groningen, beyond 0.10.7 for 1 Million Free XP. So I then would end up with a Friesland in EU and a Groningen in the Dutch Tech Tree. Is this correct?

Is she worth it? Yeah. Is she somewhat tricky to play? Yeah. Not only do you have a massive citadel, you also have a massive nose that can be overpenned OVERMATCHED by just about any BB of its own tier (T7) and higher, and also is a very juicy target for cruisers of broadside.

No company would dare take that risk - since if they do, there will be criminal liability. And the fix might be more difficult, if synchronization of data is in play somewhere.

The way PTS works: - You get a number of Tech Tree ships, which normally means ALL ships of one or more tiers (so say ALL T6 and T8 Tech Tree ships). So if you, for Example, do not have Bismarck on your main account, you will have her on PTS, assuming PTS awards all T8 Tech Tree ships in that particular session. - The research cost of other Tech Tree ships is artificially low, and - combined with a major stash of Free XP - you can pretty much get ANY Tech Tree ship you want through research. Not sure if it will happen again due to the change in the way PTS is administered from the Launcher (per this PTS), but in previous PTS once every 3 months PTS was synched with your account, which means that you would also have all your researched Tech Tree ships, and all your Premium ships available (that you had at the time of synching).

Maybe that is where something indeed went wrong in the billing software.

I know - I have had something similar happen to me at one point (I do not remember what exactly), and the problem was not with the company charging, not consistent (i.e. what turned out to be the cause for me was not the cause for others, thus the initial fix did not work for me), and in the end the situation was close to a catch-22. It could well be that CS has thought they had fixed it, incorrectly.

Not sure this is a deliberate act or something is going wrong somewhere at WG's or Paypal's end. If WG were to do this without permission as a deliberate policy, they are entering something close to criminal territory.

Admittedly this is mostly based on Co-op play but to my knowledge detonation mechanisms in Co-op and Randoms/Ranked are the same. Over the past weeks and months, I have not run into more detonations than usual (as I feel it), and if anything over that time my BB's (Jean Bart, Thunderer, Missouri, Massa) have detonated just as often if not more often than my DD's (Friesland, ZF-6 and Kiev). Even though allegedly DDs are more prone to detonation (and Soviet BBs even worse), I do not run any flags in Co-op, and bots can shoot and aim!

Am I the best DD player in the world? Absolutely not. There is plenty enough left for me to learn. That said, is a DD player more of a detriment to the team than BBs on a tour behind islands? Half the BB players complaining about the DD's have no f***ing clue about what actually goes on in the game (or know how to use the minimap. A common example of this I have encountered so far: Epicenter match: - I have spent 12 minutes in the match capping rings and blocking caps. - Much of the team got itself killed, resulting in me in a DD in the center of the cap having to take on a near full health Zara and enemy DD (that outspotted me), with no cover at all. Me leaving meant losing control over the caps anyway, so yeah, I yolo'd. BB then ends up complaining about DD's not capping, while he himself NEVER came within a full gridsquare of the map, was off chasing a cruiser that had gone to A1, and as far as I was aware NEVER shot at anything I spotted.

These events on NA were the initiative of an American CC or WG employee (Femmenenly ?) Note that on the other hand EU has more tournaments organized than NA. And yeah, I can imagine that organizing something like this on EU is more difficult, simply due to the size of the server.

I think I Myogi'd a Danae once from full health to 0 less than a minute in; Guy got spotted by aircraft, I had to launch spotter plane, and I think shell flight time was over 15 seconds (close to 20, IIRC).

I guess this is the first time he has reset a line? But yeah, this is a perfect example of someone not understanding basic game mechanics, that have been there for at least 1.5 years now (with at best slight modifications).

How is this even possible? I can simply not imagine what you have to do as a team to post these scores? Was this a full broadside lemming train that detonated on impact?

Note: Ship nr 2 has been taken out of the game (or at least is no longer available) as being too strong for a reason.

I got both the Twitch container and the mission - found them in game when I restarted the game.

I have sent in a ticket this morning for container and mission 0.10.3 #5 Oddly enough, the container and mission dropped on my NA account, and did not on my EU account. Both accounts are linked to Twitch. This worked fine before.

Send in ticket, should get you the result - as per Mr Conway. I find it baffling though how people blame WG for what seems to be mostly Twitch f***ing things up!

Ahum, You realize that part of the problem might be on the Twitch side of things? The problems started since TWITCH changed the whole drop system. Based on the many complaints by streamers about Twitch, I would not be surprised if that is a big reason for the mess now.

On NA, I decided to play some Random games trying to complete some dockyard missions, and maybe pick up some awards for the KOTS container as well. First game in Massachusetts got me the awards needed to get me that KOTS container. Played Ranked on EU in Ägir, had some very interesting matches - some were great and tense until the end - and some absolutely horrid ones, where I did not do good, but also where the team was an absolute disaster. On the other hand, I also ran in the occasional team(mates) who knew what they were doing, which made them a lot of fun to play with. The 142k game was a game that came down to the wire (and I lived because the CV killed the enemy Riga just before his shells would have killed me. A great and very tense game. The 92k game was a game that became much closer than it should have been. Was the final game for me ranking out.

Normally you have to have researched 5 T10s for Research Bureau to open op. However, there have been at least two dockyards (not sure about this one), that made it possible to buy your way into the Research Bureau, by buying at least one more phase than needed to complete the dockyard event. From then on, you do NOT earn RB points when grinding up a new tech tree line, however, you already can collect RB points by doing the daily missions, maximum 800 RB points per month: 400 when completing 50 daily missions, and another 400 when completing 75 daily missions in a month. A general comprehensive guide (and still current) to the Research Bureau: For OP:

On EU getting my 12 wins in Ranked in Ägir. A few nice games, including a number of functional teams. Also seen a few absolutely horrid teams, where I seriously wondered if players actually were looking at the screen, or just setting autopilot and leave, straight suicides. Forgot a few end-game screenshots of a few of the better games. Game ending screen of one game Damage screen of another, my personal damage record for Ägir, just over 181k, in ranked. On NA trying to work on the Dockyard, had a game in Strasbourg for the BB Main Battery hits in Co-op. With only a single other human on the team, ended up surviving (do not know how), and with over 2.5 million tanked. On EU I got myself also Yamamoto Isoroku. Not sure what ship(s) I will place him on yet.

Matter of fact, they drop on both server accounts for me, as soon as I have claimed them. Seems that my problem has been solved though - and that the issue was on the side of Twitch. As soon as I had claimed drops for another - not WoWs game - the counter for the WoWs KOTS drop started running. Yesterday I was able to get parallel drops though.

Anyone else having issues with the Sunday May 9th KOTS mission drops? For me: - Twitch is aware that there should be a mission drop (bar lists 0% of 1 hour 30 minutes) - I have linked and relinked both my accounts (NA and EU) to twitch. - No progression made despite having multiple streams of KOTS open since the first game (with sound on). There has been no progression since before AND after relinking my WG account to Twitch. Mind you, yesterday things worked fine for me. Anyone else having this issue, or is it only me and should I send in a ticket to WG.

I got the Z-31 and normally should be able to get the Iron Cross camo for her.
