Okey need some insight as well because i am a new player and [edited]if ik if im doing it wrong. I'm currently on ibuki with range mod, and after all the pain with mogami and it's galactic citadel and pretty much anything overmatching me, I started playing at 16~19km range, starting fires with ibuki on bbs, constantly changing targets till fire unless they damage con, and also constantly angling and drawing aggro. For some weird reason I seem to be able to kite properly as my average potential dmg with ibuki is ~1m and my avg dmg per game is 50k, though since my accuracy is improving dmg is happening to hit 100k more often as well. I have been starting to get a feeling of how to approach without getting blapped and being as annoying as possible. Every third match i might surprise cit some shitty cruiser i've ambushed. Also constantly torp walling anything chasing me under 13km. I don't do much for my DD if there's other cruiser nearby, or let him spot and me close by free farming whatever he spot, behind an island. My wr is 54% in it, but it doesn't say much, i'm sub 50 battles with it. My usual basic, if it can be called, tactic, is if i am at the weak flank, I kite away those that are braindead enough to chase me round our spawn, while constantly torping and continuously staying spotted, unless the mid flank collapses as well where i go silent till they turn their guns away and reengage periodically. If i'm on the strong flank, well i push with the rest, prone to mistake, occasionally getting blapped or turn towards mid cap and try to get cheap shots at other flanks with the humongous 19.1km range. I've tried brawling but with the torpedo angles of ibuki, unless i stealth ambush, i usually get outplayed, crying like a little kid that his ice cream fell down. Any feedback would be helpful, I mostly played DD, my BB experience is at least pathetic.

xD Exactly, though, i'd have whaled quite a bit to get random crap, if I viewed WG positively. But that's just personal matters, ppl blow their money a lot easier than stingy me. Honestly my frustration comes from the fact that I enjoy this game quite a lot, considering the boomer element, it's a slow game that has lot's of outplay potential and brawling, satisfying my animal & meaty salvo instincts. But the amount of hopeless anger and toxicity it creates, is hard to justify spending time and money on it longterm.

Well a window popped up about my experience so far, ofc there was no text to elaborate my thoughts and rating etc., so I thought i'd pop here and share my take on it. Since you already have it implemented, how about you insert a poll like system, where people can vote, e.g. do you like ijn 20km torps, yes/no type of thing. That would make things much more transparent for you and for the player base, without any kind of ensuing dispute. If you want to know what displeases the players etc. no need to destroy your eyes at reddit and forums to get an idea of what's what. Plus you can correlate and balance the votes depending on what kind of answers you get from new players/older ones, depending on winratio activity and so on, so that you can make more educated moves in the future. It seems to me as a very reliable system to receive definitive and unconvoluted feedback while still following your own dev path.

Player satisfaction and gameplay are all that pops to mind, about those questionnaire's purpose, I mean what else could they be used for? Anyhow, I just couldn't find any logical fault so as to why they are not being utilized that way as well. WG knows only the numbers, what's being played and its respective stats, but that's not the whole story imo. And maybe those deliberate trade-offs at balancing made sense at some point in time, but only players themselves can validate if it's still "worth". My question comes down to, how are they able to extract info about current state of meta without having a relatively solid, laid out way to communicate with the player base and more specifically the older unicums that actually know wtf they are talking about and that filtering their bias is much easier. Balancing a multivariable game like WoWs is a tall order, no huge patch is gonna fix tiny things left and right that have gotten outdated or fallen off hard. Since they don't have an endless army of devs by my guess turning to the community is kinda one way road. I'm mentioning that since a fair amount of games i've played that have a competitive scene, the equivalent unicums have a huge sway over balancing. I doubt any company wants dissatisfied raging player base.

Hello, As a relatively newcomer with 200~300 battles, i wanna know if there is some definite statement by WG about the current state of the game. I am either gonna get banned or uninstall the game. Unless they fix instant matchmaking at random battles that i have no way to dodge after being placed in a cv match i can do nothing else but quit, if i'm gonna poison myself with extreme anger. I've laughed my detonations, i've laughed my stupidity while on DD or giving broadside to bbs and many other errors of my own, that didn't piss me off at all, just queued up immediately with my alt ship, but then as i am trying to farm up my ijn gunboat to tier 8, missing like 10k xp 2 matches back 2 back with CVs... Last match before i came to the forum, no DD 2 CVs each team, and me on a myoko. Spotted, sprayed, torped, bombed, predictable. Anyway, my wows and noob tales is no1's problem obviously. I just wanna opt out of CV matches, simple as that, i don't mind waiting 50', I just wanna play the game, utilizing stealth and positioning. I am here to enjoy myself, grind, torp/burn ppl and get rekt as well, by outplays or my own stupidity, I am not here to get angry. Don't tell me how to counter play a CV, cause first of all that's BS, you can't, you can make his life difficult by simply not playing the game anymore and just backing the [edited]out and hugging as many ships as possible for cover, I had to look up all those strategies anyway at tier 3+ anyway, 2cvs per game [edited] I just wanna opt out of playing with CVs with a click, not dodging all the time manually and running the risk of getting instamatched. I am fed up of having my torps gettings spotted randomly, i am tired of popping smokes to avoid 3 runs in a row of rockets, i am tired of not being able to plan a kill as a DD or surprise broadside as a cruiser even at late game. Not that this post is gonna make any difference, reddit is burning on that matter, and just about every youtuber i watch is shitting on CVs, and nothing is done about it. I might as well start torping my CVs and asking the enemy team to do the same at the start of the match.

Ey, i didn't know that, bad game knowledge, I mean ill take it, it's something. Regardless, It's very off putting when you get some tunnel visioned guy after midnight that his sole purpose of existence is to just follow u and even use torp planes on u as a dd which is utterly pointless. Like, "[edited]off please" let me play the damn game. Yes my team might win if my cv does his thing and i survive and do my job afterwards, but after 3-4 nice clean games why tf must I just feel like i climbed mount doom and lose just about any mood i had to play. I mean, i am presuming you guys have some monstrous 10k+ games, i'm just a 50% at 200 games but this objectively doesn't seem healthy. Plus to have to wait retarded amounts of time to dodge cv games is happening already, why not just make life a bit easier... :/
