    Dear Wargaming. Please nerf smokescreen.

    That might explain @HMS_Kilinowski's forum avatar.

    Tired of Weimar spam in Narai (can it be banned from it?)

    Atlanta is almost as good in Narai as Weimar. Granted I used a specific commander build with it (Heavy HE & SAP shells with IFHE) but it is still a very good performer in that mode. Chumphon is pretty good too. Edit: Screenie, only 3stars though

    Submarine Survey 2.0 - The questions that really matter

    That stuff is nasty. Highly effective inorganic solvent that has a wide variety of industrial and commercial applications. So, unlikely to be phased out anytime soon.

    I don't think even I would be that bad. But damn, I really have to work on my idiot-proof analogies. As Jingles would say. "No matter how idiot proof you design something, the world will always come up with a better idiot"

    And you don't think the fact the players are inexperienced or useless is a factor? So if I, who has never fired a gun in his life, was given a sniper rifle and couldn't hit the side of a barn it would be the rifle that is crap.

    ... and another one. Two month old account with T10 subs. Two subs in this co-op match. Me in Montana. Napoli that spawned next to me cleared off towards centre. I was left to deal with a bot sub & Montana which shot down every ASW strike I sent out (sub was just behind it). So ... RAMMING SPEED and took out the Montana. this, I'm outta here but still came 4th from top. The guy above was bottom with the Napoli not quite as cr@p with the other sub being slightly less useless at 3rd from last. Great design WG.

    I knew, from the "All Activity" stream, who that was a reply to before checking.

    Random battles now include that grab a buff mode?

    Probably better than 30% of the co-op players. I've been in a couple of co-op matches where I've grabbed a buff ... in a battleship. OK, the last one was Georgia which can shift a bit. Do you get a notification when the red team grabs a buff?

    You had better turn up the valve to max on that Copium tank before you do. It's usually those matches where most of your team are bots and the two other guys derp so badly the friendly bots score better. Waaay better

    Be very careful about asking for that! Lest you summon thou who shall not be named, but has his own bingo card.

    Tired of Weimar spam in Narai (can it be banned from it?)

    Yup, I've just done my last mission for the 3rd daily crate with Chumphon - I've got that WH40K Ork commander on it. That isn't not that skilled ATM. Atlanta's radar can be good to peek through the smoke covering the transports though. Anyone tried Prinz Heinrich in Narai yet?

    Tired of Weimar spam in Narai (can it be banned from it?)

    Agreed, though it took me a while to build up the guts to take such a fragile ship in there. My Halsey is trained for Des Moines where his enhanced turret traverse & ammo switching skills work nicely. But my 21pt Gearing cmdr has IFHE & Heavy HE & SAP Shells** for cruisers - turns Atlanta into a bit of a damage monster. ** Atlanta avoids the concealment penalty due to its small gun calibre

    Asdic on destroyers?

    ASW mode would be great for Spotting Damage missions.

    Dear Wargaming. Please nerf smokescreen.

    Given this, and other recent fan-boi CV threads I think someone needs to redo the BBaby bingo card but for carriers. AA is too strong Aiming reticules are too big Smoke is broken Why do I get reported CVs need buffs Bring back Enterprise CVs are discriminated against. Allow them in all modes Allow more CVs in a division Add more supership CVs Make CVs easier to play well Rocket planes are now useless I'm sure veterans can come up with more "nuggets of CV wisdom"

    Ship's Log: Rental Submarines

    I'll give WG a little bit of credit here in the case of submarines. The next rental missions now require a ship to be within one tier of the sub's tier. Previously it ships two tiers lower would qualify. So they could easily unlock the T6 sub and then use that to unlock the T8 sub. Rinse & repeat for T10. I've seen this quite often. This time round new players will find it difficult (unless they have premiums) to get to the T8 and 10 subs and then find that they're out of their depth (pun intended). The restrictions could still be tighter though, for example missions require same tier tech tree destroyers so that you can't buy access to higher tier subs with a premium ship.

    Subs again, again (sorry)

    Getting back on topic ( ) another relatively new player with a T10 sub. Co-op stats, he'd played a few ranked (12) & random (62). Interestingly, WG are slightly tightening up access to the next set of sub rentals - ships one tier below (instead of two) can unlock a sub. So at least no one will be able to use a T6 sub to get to the T8 one and then the T10. Which, IMHO, is a step in the right direction See: Ship's Log: Rental Submarines

    General CV related discussions.

    Fair enough. I've gotten used to some of my prems (mainly T10 having the Type 20) that adds +20% credits to that section and also equipping my tech tree ships with economic signals & camos.

    Where is the credit Modifiers section? It should be between the Received and Spent sections. Or did you not have the Z-44's perma camo mounted?
  25. That isn't calculus, it is arithmetic. And if everyone else did the same, how much "fun" would you have?
