[NLD2] mel1111 Players 226 posts 21,307 battles Report post #1 Posted October 4, 2018 What I see lately is that games suddenly end when 1000 point level is not reached, time has not expired and cap has not ended. To be honest I find this very annoying, especially when the enemy is leading in points, but my team is doing the cap and is well ahead, because it then says the enemy won on points. If this is a bug it needs to be fixed asap. If it is policy of WOWS it is a very bad one. Many times teams risk ships to be able to reach a cap in a standard battle. They take that as "investment" to the win. But if this gets hampered by this way the game is being regulated by WOWS that type of play, which is quite aggressive and finally without ships hiding behind rocks is totally obsolete and make the game more boring. 20170910_181601_PBSB104-Orion_05_Ring.wowsreplay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TOFTC] Pikkozoikum Players 7,658 posts 13,680 battles Report post #6 Posted October 4, 2018 That's a common mistake, people often try to do max. damage or get a cap for all costs, but don't mind, that they cost points, when they die. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NLD2] mel1111 Players 226 posts 21,307 battles Report post #9 Posted October 4, 2018 No I am not THAT stupid my friend. We did not lose a ship at that score of 260, but still the game ended.

This is not shown by your replay. In the replay, you leave the game before the game ends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
