@MrConway and @Crysantos why did you not tell the community WG were testing out a new DD tool in defence of CV's, cloaking devices. 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 :Smile-_tongue:

(he was in visual spotting distance of my planes. I checked the replay)

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.

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.

Sounds like something WG would dream up, "in the premium shop now, get it while it's hot, 20 cloaking consumables for only 19.99"

Don't put the idea out there - not even in jest.

My assumption is grandpa weegee is finally getting around to nerfing your account but applying it to other unicums and gud players. :Smile_trollface:

 

totally not miss bugworld having ten strokes at once. :Smile_trollface:

Please send a bug report with replay via our support portal, we'll see if we can find any Romulans in the code :)

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..

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" :Smile_hiding::Smile_trollface: in the end so the potato BBs wins anyway.

 

 

Bottom line: DDs are Klingons. Islands appearing out of nowhere are Romulans.

that might be not a such a bad idea, considering upcoming subs can ping and spot DDs in their smoke right now

 

Any half decent DD player can fire their torps at a DD smoke warrior who thinks they are safe. :Smile_trollface:

That idea was probably in the spreadsheet as a Soviet consumable - someone watched Red October and though it was a historical documentary....

@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 :Smile-_tongue:
