[BBMM] BLUB__BLUB [BBMM] Players 8,818 posts 17,199 battles Report post #8251 Posted February 25, 2020 Just now again met @rnat in his Edinburgh, his team gave good effort especially that naughty CV. But it wasn't enough as I had Kaga (in the mission "get 25 floodings with CV"for the RN cruiser...) so I just kept spamming them. In the end all we needed was the DD dead, so... well... I hit him but no kill. Of course not... Same as I could not kill Rnat, duh, well I tried, as he had just torped our Baltimore (saw it happening... urrtggghhh, well, that Balti had it coming...). I dropped my bombs on Rnat but the Bismarck beat me to it and blapped him 0.00001 sec before my bombs could hit. That just about happened every time so meagre score and no kills for me. Well played Rnat (nice kill on that Balti) but no cigar. EDIT: seems RNGesus took pity on me because look what happened, I earned my 2nd container that game (took "resources"...): 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thought it was nice to finish the night after re-grinding RU BBs for hours.. Oh buoy! how wrong I was! 1 DD game, their GROZOVOI, capped 2 caps.. with pushing cruisers.. using smoke smartly, torped our BBs, dakka dakka from smoke.. where we had YY, on 10 line all battle, torping from max range! our cruisers capped one, but we lost 3 of them in the process..

Everytime my team piss me off i have to play the Haku or Midway the next game... Because spreadsheets says its balanced. I saw you guys in the lineup so i asked my team to be a bit aggressive and told them that i would spot as much as i could. Also that i would rebalance you're Smolensk. (That is one of my favorite things to do. Think he figured out that sitting still behind an island camping when there is a Haku with AP bombs around was a bad idea). And they listened... I know! Wooot!!!? Oh and your YY was something speshul indeed. I spotted him the first time after what? 7-8 min? Saying that tho, i feel bad as my teams was like yours all day yesterday. They just sit back camping not doing jack st, but as soon as i play a CV they grow some nuts and started playing. Guess i have to play CV's all the time now then. Hopefully a bit more balanced team next time tho man. GG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I told him.. even an average haku player can slingshot and bypass my fighters.. there is no way to prevent him to cita you I've told him.. and I added, that is not an average CV player on the opposing side.. far from it.. so move away... what did he told me? noob CV it is your responsibility to protect me! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't really express how disappointing that was to watch. Edit: Damn, and he's a streamer I follow!! Well, just unfollowed. I don't have a huge amount of time to play weekdays and that game cost me a full spread of special signals... So annoying Shaka, just be quiet 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Estaca_de_Bares Players 1,534 posts 25,837 battles Report post #8259 Posted February 25, 2020 I'm probably leaving plenty of people unmentioned. Twice meeting @Muppeteer, twice in opposite teams and him in a CV, no need to mention the obvious outcomes. While finishing the Fuso grind towards Nagato in Aegis, @Odo_Toothless' Dunkerque IIRC was there, but I only noticed in the post-battle results. My Nelson also spawned right in the middle of a division by @Yoshanai and some other THESO members. Before the current patch arrived, @Infiriel's Asashio and my Takao had a close encounter in the middle of Estuary. And during yesterday's session with Shimakaze, sharing team with @xxNihilanxx, who sailed a Z-52, and his companion in a Minotaur. Salute. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[DK-CP] NothingButTheRain Players 6,338 posts 14,259 battles Report post #8261 Posted February 26, 2020 Ran into @Estaca_de_Bares just now while playing on The Atlantic. Of course with a forumite now eyeballing my performance I felt inclined to make a good show out of it and put on my carry shoes. And this I did, as this game ended up possibly being my highest damage game ever without having received a single award. Too bad it was still a loss with me nearly having equal bxp to the top in the winning team. We lost by the other team reaching 1k points while the FdG was down to 1200hp or so with me and the Friesland trying to kill him and some hapless Izumo closeby ready for some torps. Spoiler Till next time and hopefully then we will get a win 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hide contents Till next time and hopefully then we will get a win I potatoed a bit there, I should have left B when you told me so. The problem was that my only 2 escape routes forced me to give plenty of broadside to the Soyuz at a comfortable range for his guns, which is why I waited until too late when he was down. The MM was, as I typed at the beginning, interesting to say the least: 6 BBs, 2 radar CAs and 4 DDs per side. I stayed watching the battle and at a certain point we had DD advantage but none of the remaining big guys was targeting the red CAs, which was a bad omen. Salute. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You were basically the only support that I had and I already got radared there once causing me to have to abandon that cap at first. One lesson I learned from @djfast is to always have an escape route planned and you forgot about yours I got radared a LOT during that match btw, I think at the least 4 times. That 12km radar is a bit too much imo. It should have like 15s radar duration at the most or nerfed range (but the latter would have other unwanted implications).

Estaca_de_Bares Players 1,534 posts 25,837 battles Report post #8273 Posted March 1, 2020 @LowSpeedHighDrag and his Smolensk in ranked twice, first a defeat (opposite teams, me in Minotaur) then a victory (same team, sailing Shimakaze). The former one was really infuriating due to a Moskva and a Yamato that hid behind the easternmost island for half the game, only leaving it well after the cap zone activated in order to farm the last shots and keep the star. The latter, OTOH, neared textbook levels of teamplay: friendly DDs providing scout at the border of the enemy radar, big guys at the proper distance and with unobstructed line of fire, red destroyers and radars focused and sunk or badly crippled on sight.

While the other flank that I was with my div mates we did a big stomp. Still well played by you cause you tried your best. Your DM refused to play, your Smolensk was stationary 6km from me broadside and his div mate on Grozo took all my 12 gun AP salvo and my Goliath div mate finished him. While calling him names after that. Maybe he thought the Goliath devastated him 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
