Coz I was a little stunned that even flying directly over this little sneak bote for almost a full min, that he remained invisible, not even having to use smoke! Unless of course this patch has a lot of bugs needing fixing (he was in visual spotting distance of my planes. I checked the replay) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was it any different when you watched the replay? Throw it in Discord, maybe its different for any of us? You never know what its causing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TORAZ] El2aZeR Beta Tester 15,786 posts 26,801 battles Report post #4 Posted January 3, 2020 I'd assume horrendous rendering delay is the cause. I've had it too from time to time. Sometimes getting shot at for over 30 seconds but nothing rendering at all is extremely fun and engaging. CV rework is totally less buggy than before.

My assumption is grandpa weegee is finally getting around to nerfing your account but applying it to other unicums and gud players. totally not miss bugworld having ten strokes at once. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TTT] GraySlayer Players 645 posts 5,471 battles Report post #13 Posted January 3, 2020 I've had this many times but with regards to spotting. My Yugo runs at 5.5 and sometimes a DD will pop up inside this when I should be spotting him 2 to 400 metres or more earlier. I've always put it down to lag and rendering myself.. It does not happen often.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seriously, have you not been on the forums for the last few years? Everyone, EVERYONE knows how OP torpedoes are, how torps should be limited, how unrealistic its for a IJN DD to cloak like a Klingon and even breath fire from smoke! /s Behold a very relic of shitposting from the archieves! Cant remember for which case of overwhelmingly stupid BB whining I did this 10 seconds in paint job but ........ Ofc everyone knows that this is literally how Kami works: *gasps like a little girl* It a german BB and its firing HE only! Aim our torpedoes DIRECTLY on the white line! ....... They found a way to PREDICT our movement! *overpowered DD resisting glorious BB HE* This is such a match made in heaven because "random detonation" in the end so the potato BBs wins anyway. Bottom line: DDs are Klingons. Islands appearing out of nowhere are Romulans. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NWP] Bear__Necessities Players 5,291 posts 15,379 battles Report post #25 Posted January 6, 2020 @MrConway when you assured me there were not any Romulan ships... I believed you, clearly I was wrong and it's Romulan FLEETS not individual ships! :P FSP and PING are both stable. In game squadron moved smoothly... just a shame I could see neither the enemy OR that flak that downed my entire squadron. I will send a ticket as I have the replay this time. But please can you get it looked at. The CV related bugs are becoming more apparent and annoying. Unless this is a personal nerf to Unicum CV players that we are just not aware about 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
