Reduce the manual AA skill's calibre requirement to 60mm, so guns like the Model 1916 and 3"/50 Mk 22 can use it. These are single shot guns that seem like they ought to be considered 'heavy' for the game's purposes.

Suggestion:

Change 'total damage done' to 'percentage of ships health' damage done. Or make a setting to change it. Or make a setting to display both.

 

I.e. if I damage a destroyer for half his HP, it should show (approx) 10k, and 50%. If I damage a battleship for half his health, it should likewise show (approx) 30k, and 50%.

 

Disregard stuff such as 'healing', 'light damage' and such for now (although I can really see a demand for that later on).

Hi Phlogistoned.

 

I use the WG modstation and in that there are mods that may help you there are some give you options on what damage bars you want and enemy ships stats in game.

 

If you do not have it, look it up in WG forum.

Fire chance should generally be reduced in the rain.

Do you have any idea what parts of a ship actually are set on fire? Rain will not make any difference there, bud. Its the interior being set on fire.

Very small QOL change I'd like: As it is, when you disable certain camos (space, Halloween, Kobayashi, anime...) you see the ship naked, so ships wihout camo are intistinguishable from ships with a camo you've personally disabled. What if instead of that, we saw the standard permacamo for the ship when they're using a camo we've disabled? Or just any of the silver camos? This way we can know whether the enemy is using a camo or not.

A nice Tier 9 free xp premium cruiser would be an Alaska-class large cruiser. The characteristics of the Alaska class are very close to Kronshtadt, having about the same speed and armor, as well as having the same number of main guns of an equal caliber. The Alaska class cruisers had a slightly weaker secondary battery than Kronshtadt ( A:6x2 5'' K:4x2 6'' + 4x2 3.9'') but a more powerful AA armament. Consumables should be the standard U.S. heavy cruiser consumables and main battery guns should have a rate of fire of about 2.5 to 3 rpm. The permanent camo should be the historical camo of either USS Alaska or USS Guam, depending on which of the two is selected to be in game (although my favorite is Guam, they both looked fantastic). Price should be the standard for the tier 750000 free xp.

 

Alaska

Suggestion: Player Communication

I find it a bit silly that we can only talk in the clan when we're out of the battle. Similarly having to add someone to a list and then talking to them after battle isn't a great way of doing things.

I used to play the original Everquest, so that's where my idea came from:

There is one main chat window where different channels are shown in different colours. For example clan chat could be green, division chat could be yellow, team chat could be blue, world chat could be red.

If you want to talk in the clan channel, you type something like this: /c Clan Message

And the same for other channels:

/d to talk in division chat

/t to talk to the team in a battle

/w to talk to the world in battle

/pm <name> to send a message to a specific player

 

It would certainly help communications on all levels. You can activate or de-activate certain channels, obviously features like a blocklist must be implemented, too. I am not a coder, but since the underlying chat infrastructure is already in place, it would "just" be a matter of consolidating the separate channels into one window (and please please make that resizeable and customizable with items like font size).

Forgot to add the actual message :P

Can we get a ship carousel filter that shows only ships with non-elite status?

That has been suggested at least once before. It would be really convenient. Much more useful than the "Suitable for the specials" thing which doesn't seem to filter any ships at all.

 

Find a way (New game mode?) to create "anti-divisions", meaning a way to allow players to specifically play against each other.

 

Forum users have pointed out to me before that it is not really possible due to the abuse potential through "double agents"  in the normal game modes. However, I keep coming back to the idea since it could potentially be such a better way to settle differences than, say, toxic chat or forum attacks.

 

Even the everyday kind.

 

So maybe a mode where only anti-divisioned players are allowed; a mode whose results never yield any kinds of goodies or rewards... actually am I describing the new training rooms? Because I haven't tried those yet.

Not at all what I meant, so I have to clarify:

 

Change the  'damage done' counter up in the right corner, and in the after-battle report, so it displays a sum of percentages rather than a sum of absolute numbers.

 

If I damage a battleship for 20k (33% of its base health) and a destroyer for 10k (50% of its health), the damage counter should show 30k and 83% respectively.

 

Missions and other rewards should be based on percentages rather than absolute damage numbers. Possibly with a 5-15% bonus for the 'kill shot'.


Reasons: if you push and/or are involved in cap-fighting your damage is usually rather low compared to ships behind you. I had a really good game a month ago where I played battleship and sunk three of the enemy's four destroyers, and severely damaged the fourth. I also solo capped one cap and helped cap two more.

 

Let's disregard the question of whether that should even be possible in a battleship, and just say that I ended up at 88k damage dealt.

 

That, by many metrics, outstanding game, did _not_ bring me any closer to the top battleship badge.

This would be alright at the lower tiers, but the 3" guns on Minotaur and Des Moines would fall into this category, as well as the upcoming Worcester. I think they put the limit at 85mm so that certain AA guns like this aren't affected

SoonTM , I guess once the carrier rework has been finalised. Probably we'll get a lot in one go: RN carriers, CV rework and maybe even a campaign/collection to go with the RN carriers (like the US cruiser collection at the moment)

Hi i've been on about the British carriers for many months now as they should have been in the game from start, the British navy had them first and if not mistaken invented them first as well, why have they been ignored for so long.

 

If and when RN carriers get introduced it will be too little too late, as WG have their history on this game is a little screwie, thus ships in game that never were built or proven in battle and ships that should be in ignored.  

 

So we have to wait till WG mess with carriers probably destroy how they play and the fun for some of playing them, thus we may or may not get RN carriers.

Suggestion : Camera Angle

 

I would like to see bridge camera angle from eyes of captain. So it will be more realistic and funny to play. At the same time we could feel much more like a real captains :)

I wish you are going to read this, thanks to read at first :) I just tried to explain like this...... Could you imagine how will funny to managing whole warship from that seat. I would like to see that camera angle soon in world of warships as well as world of tanks

whats your win rate?

 

He is actually a better player than you, even though he does not have your winrate, but he has more XP in every ship type. So his suggestion is a lot of sense. How many times you did a good job but your team was just horrible...i think everybody knows that feeling.

Hi. I would like an opportunity to get a premium Kongo class ship :Smile_great: (or 4 of them :Smile_hiding:).

Please bring back the ARP ships or at least create a copypaste Kongo and name her Kirishima or something :Smile_great:

Suggestion: Additional ship customisation

 

I remember when i was browsing the forums before the game was released and was interested in a feature that was rumoured to be in the game but was never implemented, this would allow people to pick the name of their ship from a list of historical names. I will use the Colorado class as an example of what i'm thinking: 

 

When i purchase the Colorado class i have access to a drop down menu where i can choose to name my ship after one of the three Colorado class battleships in real life, Colorado, West Virginia and Maryland. Say i chose to name my ship USS West Virginiathe name West Virginia would appear on the stern of the ship (or wherever it was placed in real life) and the ships number, 48 (or insignia), would appear on the bow (i couldn't find a picture of WV with her number painted on, but some ships had it). Obviously, some ship names wouldn't be available, such as Missouri for the Iowa class or Duke of York for the KG5 class as these ships are already represented in game as premium ships.

 

The chosen ship name would only be visible to the player, to keep gameplay simple, and it would have no impact on the statistics of the ship, it would simply be a nice way of making your ships more personal for history buffs like myself, as well as a way of representing ships that otherwise may not find a way into the game, such as West Virginia or Maryland. Just a thought :Smile_great:

General: Ship Display Panel / Filters

 

Should increase the "compact carousel view" number to 5

in the port, ship display panel / filters.

Allowing more ships to access on screen, without scrolling.         Scrolling -> :fish_nerv: ...

 

Yes, ..is is clear.. able apply filters by nation, tier, on-off ARP ships etc...
But the point is: all ships on one place and without scrolling.

 

It would be more comfortable for players who have many ships, and for everyone who use this kind of view in his port.

Special upgrades: please mark them as special, it isn't obvious from the start. Different colors, font, background, etc. anything really that just helps identifying it for what it is at first sight.

I would like to be able to distinguish them from the normal upgrades just so I don't do anything foolish with them.

Whatever would make them stand out I'd like to see that marked in my Inventory as well as in the Upgrade selection. The green plus is already a good start to inform me, but why stop there?

Would be nice if you made some scenarios for low tiers, from 1 to 5 and enable hard mode, like against higher team bots than human teams.
