But this I need to correct. On a 2 Mbit Telekom DSL line, the "actual download rate" you get is in the area of 220 kbit/s. (What I referred to as "real life downstream" up there.) In the words of our common compatriot Dieter Nuhr, "If you don't have the first clue, just better STFU." Look, it even rhymes in English. Well, you make no sense...why would you need a setting for less than 128kbit, when you could load with 220 kbit...you make no sense. And no, you should not load with 128 kbit or less to browse while it downloads... If you want such an option, then you should travel back to 2003...or just dont live in a hillbilly town.

[XYZ] cybertankhunter Players 7 posts Report post #1177 Posted July 30, 2018 - please let us have manual torp or bomb drop at Tier 3 - I just had 2 battles in Hosho that were frustrating as hell. The autodrop mechanism is just to easy to handle by the targeted player if he is not completely inexperienced. A cruiser or DD just need to do a full turn in open water into the attack direction and the torps will miss all. A BB wil get one hit. The best part is if the player drives close to an island and turn, the algorithem is going to drop some torps over land. Let the CV just use the manual drop.

Behavior: Mark a Crew as "primary" and you can get it back from any "Premium" Ship with one Click. Better: If you dont have a crew assigned, but its on "Lend/Lease" - you may still go to battle with automatically getting that Captain back and putting it back AFTER the battle. Result: Captain sharing on Premium Ships. I have already begged for a system like this to be implemented, and I have seen other people before me and you who have. Sadly neither Wg nor the rest of the community really cares about people with a lot of premium ships and problems with crew management it seems... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WG removed the manual drop because of sealclubbing on lower tiers. I think Hosho is even less effected because of 2 torp bombers, which means you can even cross drop. btw try adjusting the Auto drop, so it will drop more from behind, Turning in they usually still get a hit, only thing when they slow down at the same time. If they are good at dodging, then use crossdrop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The system is already far better than the system in WoT and you only need to change 1 person. If you would change it like WoT with a "auto crew return"-mod then it would make the UI even more sluggish than it is now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And the fact that this is even worse for WoT doesn't really help me here. Also I cannot see how something can be more sluggish than clicking through multiple premium ships in search of your commander and then manually assigning the guy, and then doing the same backwards if I want to play that premium again. I have never heard about that mod for WoT, but considering it is a mod, it is propably not the most elegant solution for the problem compared to a system WG could implement, if they actually wanted to.

Spruance_2 Players 1 post 8,797 battles Report post #1182 Posted August 1, 2018 I think would be nice remove the ability to do strafe when already in dogfight , it's quite not logical they can leave fight go in special formation to do such an attack and as it change damage dealing because ships in ww2 were fighting broad to broad so be ripped off by fighting that way is not very historic at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GRAPHICS In game (i know its not so important) but i would love a specific animation for a detonated ship. A battleship which is detonated should light up the whole sky and have an epic rumbling explosion. That way when im detonated/detonate someone i can sit back and marvel at the pyrotechnics. I know its a rare event but this would be great and like the exploding lids in world of tanks. hi sustin idea. good idea. HelloI suggest that in containers with credits, be credits only, not signals or whatever. And the other containers. If I dismantle a container with signals, there should be no credits in the container.I undo a container with signals and I have it and resources (cooal) is a little, bizarre.

[BLITZ] WeGreedy Players 3,005 posts 14,998 battles Report post #1186 Posted August 3, 2018 Percentage-wise damage counter How about having an additional counter for damage showing the relative damage dealt to ships. For example: If one deals 14,320 damage to a Shimakaze (w/o SE) and 31,740 damage to a Kurfürst the counter would show "110%" (80% + 30%). Maybe it's just me, but I think this is a nice piece information. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[S-E] FixCVs_Nautical_Metaphor Players 3,532 posts 29,234 battles Report post #1187 Posted August 3, 2018 As far as I understand it, the rationale for the week of free Commander re-training before and after Clan Battle season is so players can adjust their commmanders for Clan Battles, especially those without Tier X ships that benefit from teh rental ships. This gets inconsistent when the rental ships are swapped out for other nationalities two times mid-season without an additional re-training phase. It would make more sense to either stick with the same rental ships for the whole Clan Battle season or grant extra free re-training days for each change-over.

First time i heard this. People who need the rental ships dont need this "special tuning", because the ships itself are not really competitive. And they already have the option to reset the skills right in the beginning of a season. I would like to reskill more often too, but there is no real need for it and that would be the reason why it is like it is now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Without getting into the debate about the removal of manual attacks at T4-5 (I admit I rather appreciated it, but most CV players seem to be against it), low tier was the opportunity to learn about global squad management, cross drop and drop orientation. Some sort of tutorial would have been welcome though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xanta99 ∞ Players 216 posts 7,605 battles Report post #1190 Posted August 4, 2018 New Ribbon / xp credit idea: You know those times where you set fires or floods on a target and it uses DCP, and they do 0 damage, and before you can reapply them someone else fills the target with fires? My idea is a new ribbon and perhaps some credit for forcing the target to blow its DCP. Each time a fire or flood is set on a target that used DCP when you had a DOT effect on it you gain a "Damage over time specialist" (or whatever would be a good name) ribbon and perhaps something small like 10% bonus credit for the damage of the subsequent DOTs applied by others. By bonus I mean the applier loses nothing and the ship that made their damage possible gets something small as a consolation. Perhaps make it only apply to fires and floods that are DCPed before they do more than 20% of their max damage. It's a little frustrating right now when this happens otherwise. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[S-E] FixCVs_Nautical_Metaphor Players 3,532 posts 29,234 battles Report post #1194 Posted August 7, 2018 Here's an easy way to double the utility and effectiveness of the Port filter by adding just one single extra check box: Add a "NOT" check box to the Port filters. You know, to exclude ships with matching parameters from the results. An easy way to allow filtering for things like "Everything EXCEPT Elite ships" or what have you. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
