Utlieov Players 37 posts 13,744 battles Report post #1 Posted December 24, 2019 Now, I have this lovely Jingles commander sitting around, and I wonder which ship(s) I should put him on? There are : Warspite / Queen Elizabeth - which would be most fitting considering the length of their service. King George V / Duke of York / Nelson - more prem ships mean XP faster, which always a good thing! Monarch, which I got a perma camo for ... a ship equally crap as it's commader (can't turn, can't shoot straigth, can't tank ...) Really need some help with this decision, and whould like to hear your opinions, why he should go where? PS: Merry Christmas ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

250swb Players 628 posts 2,129 battles Report post #9 Posted December 24, 2019 My Doctor assured me that I don't have Celebrity Worship Syndrome, minor celebrity's in the jungle or wannabe celebs loving it up on islands or in houses go whoosh over my head, so in keeping I have no particular plans for him. In fact without opening up the game I couldn't tell you whether he's in a low tier ship or the Reserve but to be honest given this thread has reminded me I suppose I should dismiss him.

mein_nick_ist_besetzt Players 138 posts 3,123 battles Report post #10 Posted December 24, 2019 In honour of his meritorious service I've put Jingles in command of the crappiest CV I could find - The Mighty Implacable.

As RN CAs don't need EM and I could live without not having improved JoAT on them, both skills improved by Dukirk brothers, Jingles would be decent RN CAs captain. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[CRYSS] Danucu_Tigger Players 128 posts 10,218 battles Report post #14 Posted December 24, 2019 I was really short on RN captains, so he got promoted to commanding Edinburgh after Mr. Dunkirk got command of Minotaur. I like Jingles, but his 'special skill' as a captain is annoying and counterproductive. There's some fun miss-identifying an enemy ship that I just sunk as a 'friendly cruiser' but there's a completely different thing in miss-reporting a new spotted ship. I tend to pay attention to such announcements and I don't want to check the map every time to see if the new enemy contact is really a BB in the other corner, or a DD within torpedo distance of my ship. Also, they could have given him a mildly grindier mission to justify 10pts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[HPF] Ocsimano18 Players 3,476 posts 13,949 battles Report post #16 Posted December 24, 2019 My problems with the Jingles commander: 1. Starting with 3 skill points is a joke. 6 points would be a minimum, but 10 would have been ideal. Dasha started with 10 points. 2. The recording quality is mediocre. Sometimes his voice is louder, sometimes weaker, and the voice quality is not consistent. 3. The joke with killing allied ships is not creative. 4. Detecting non existing destroyers is annoying. Overall, the Dasha commanders were much better made. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[L4GG] Butterdoll Players 3,470 posts 11,414 battles Report post #17 Posted December 24, 2019 Simple, I have Jingles in ALL my ships, all. He's the UBER ( with two dots over the U) commander. The guy never gets old , despite the fact I always have to double check what's spotted. Regarding the 3 points, he will sit nicely in my higher tier ships when I get those, is where All my lowest skill captains are. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes his voice is louder, sometimes weaker, and the voice quality is not consistent. That point pretty much applies to anything we have as voiceover. It really is annoying.

[SYD] Molly_Delaney Players 1,200 posts 4,600 battles Report post #22 Posted December 24, 2019 Jungles makes the game fun, and besides you should be checking the mini-map when you are told you've spotted something. A DD running away from you is less threat than one parallel, a BB broadside to you when you're in a DD is a deletion (of you) waiting to happen etc..... All we need know is an HSF version of Jingles A guest lecturer from the RN....... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Five minutes with Audacity and the Normalisation filter would fix it.... I haven't got the foggiest. You would have to rinse and repeat with every patch, though. We shouldn't even have to be doing this, it's WG's business to sort out this kind of issues, however.... it is entirely possible they simply don't even consider this a problem.... Have you heard of the tragedy of the Russian bathroom/toilet light switch? They work in ways, some might consider.. unnatural. With Russian wiring, it is possible that turning on the light with the toilet switch turns it on in the bathroom and vice versa. Now, try telling a Russian electrician that there's a problem with that. They both work! You will only sound like some weird, annoying freakish foreigner... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
