Nah! That's what the Jack Daniels is for. Sometimes I just like to have something easy to drink but still get my alcohol fix.

Ooooo a little whiskey and Coke right now would be fab. Edit: Better capitalize the C - don't went them thinking I meant something else.

Something else to add to the pile.

It has the Somers in it.

If I had to guess I would say this is why they nerfed the credits.

I want everyone to take a moment and just imagine this company, who made over a billion, is so worried about people making too many credits so they are going to nerf it by 25%. PR at it's finest.

Someone at Wargaming must have decided to twist the term "More is less" by requiring more from us but giving back less.

Wow they really appreciate their paying customers don't they.

Lucky to even get into a battle.

Then why not play a Montana?

Just had a player in ranked with a Louisiana not using his planes except for the fighter ones. He was even being hunted by a SHIMA but not once did he use his attack aircraft. Oh he used his guns and was in the middle of the action until said SHIMA torped him but never used his planes.

Not really sure if this is possible but I seemed to have a bit of the unluckiest luck so far with this game. I bought a few of the below: I ended up with these: Not sure if I should cry or be happy. Anything like this happen to you?

Got this "Kraken" in ranked.

Well I really wanted the GK without spending the coal.

I've spent about 40 quid on dubs.

Sure are a lot of Nagato, Zieten, PH and GNs with god lie accuracy.

They are 100% going for cruisers above all other ships. I have BB's shooting past my teammates in order to target me along with the CV and Hybrids.

Seems to me the more people give to keep this game afloat the less Wargaming give back.

Not sure if this is just an Asymmetric Battle thing but I've noticed even after the last ship has been destroyed the game keeps going for a few more seconds. Is it like this for all battles now? I know plenty of times where I have won a battle simply because my shells hit the other person before their shells hit me and the game ended. If this is the case could it lead to more draws happening or is it once the "Victory" sign comes up it doesn't matter?

I think the developers have given the ships extras because I am seeing a lot of abnormal accuracy and ship control from ships that normally wouldn't have it.

First time post to the forums and semi newish to the game compared to a lot of others so "Hello". I just wanted to share my experiences with this game and why my patience is starting to wear thin. For the record I don't want it to because overall I do like the game and as soon as I can I would like to start streaming my gameplay on Twitch but I need to be able to make peace with the game before that happens. Not sure if anyone else experiences these things so maybe I'm alone but I suspect I'm not. I'm not really that good at the game and if you look at my total number of random games it's rather low but in my defense I've moved away from random games and almost solely hang out in Convoy, Ranked, and Brawls. Submarines and Cv's: I guess for me I have to ask the simple question of "What positives do these two ship classes bring to the overall game?" Variety doesn't count I'm afraid so this leaves my mind with a big fat blank. Just in the small amount of time I've been playing this game it just seems counter play is being removed all together or minimized down to the bone and this creates a lot of frustration. Even worse is when these ships are allowed in matches that consist of smaller teams where the aggravation is felt two fold. I don't understand where the quick defense of the development team comes from whenever someone finds a way to help counter these ships or the next ship that comes out has really bad AA almost seemingly on purpose. In other words not a fan. The Players: I'm not going to sit here and call out any names or point fingers but Wargaming makes it all too easy for people to skip those all important learning times and jump straight to the top. This is a team based game where the different classes of ships have different roles that when interacted together form the ability to solve problems the other team causes. Can you play this game as a rogue? Of course you can - the same as a footballer can walk onto the pitch and only kick the ball into his own net. It's not always wise to do something just because you can. This is not a dig at people who genuinely try and just may not succeed but the ones who skate along the edge of "I'm just having fun" to being disruptive. Yes I know to each his own and all that but when you look at the overall design of the game it is made to be played a certain way. I have resources that I would like to get the maximum gain on and losing because the other team was just better is one thing but having people just sit at the back, taking an enormous amount of time getting into position just to shoot at one ship while they could have shot four others, yoloing for no reason, kiting when it's not necessary, breaking away when you have the enemy against the ropes for no reason, being blind to opportunities or just not taking them when they are beating you against the head is something else entirely. Here is a little meme I made that goes with 4 vs 4 or 6 vs 6 Ranked and Brawls which sums it up for me. Another thing is the choice of ship and how best to use it. To this day I watch people in German BB's just parked behind an island nose in at the back of the map in Ranked and Brawls. Why would you pick a brawling ship that has terrible dispersion to snipe and in any 4 or 6 vs 6 game? At least bring a Moskva, Hinden, Petro or other sniper type of ship and leave that slot for someone who will bring a BB to do a proper job in it to support the team. I don't mind losing to a better team but I hate losing winnable games. Also in these smaller team games you don't have the time to just sail around checking out the scenery. If the other team does a full push together and yours doesn't your chances of winning are slim. Experience at the game is very important at lower tiers but I do understand the frustration of having CV's and subs in those lower tiers makes it much harder to actually learn the game as you spend more time going back to port than actually playing. People just seem to be stuck in this single minded "Random gameplay fits all" type of thing and it heavily shows. I've had the same guy on three of my teams before and in each game it was like he was a bot, he did the EXACT, same thing in each game and died first in each one. Wargaming: This is who I blame most of all for everything. I know what some of you are going to say "Well they are a business" and while that is true you don't have to wreck your game and anger your player base in order to do so. All you have to do is look at the data you will see the most successful businesses can offer a great service, keep their customers happy, and make lots of money doing so. Any business that says otherwise is living in the short term. I mean Wargaming is located in Cyprus so I would say I pay more tax than they do and they did post a gain of over 1.5 billion. I'm not surprised though because most gaming companies are doing this and people are still throwing their wallets at them so I blame both really. Eventually the game will become oversaturated with bad players like World of Tanks Blitz is becoming but by then is will be too late. What keeps them from going under now is lack of another similar game out there. The day will come when an alternative will come out and the current player base will "jump ship" if you excuse the pun. It's a shame really as I do like the game and I don't want to see it decline but I'm afraid it's ran by people who have more money than sense. I could go into a lengthier post but I think I'll just leave it there for now. All the best.

I think the CV's need to be removed. Had a bot CV just focus my Buffalo the entire game along with the Nebraska.

Something I've noticed is while the mode overall is easy don't underestimate the bots. I also believe some of their programming is tied into the game. I did a little experiment when the bot was kiting I switched to HE and immediately it started to turn and give broadside then I switched to AP and it started trying to kite again. It's like the AI knew I was switching shells.

I grind hard for the Steel and Coal then at the end I purchase the extra for 2500 dubs.

Thanks but I'm not seeing the clarification anywhere unless I'm just blind.
