If they decide to play safe and camp a position they can't get hit and can't shoot back, either they should play coop or not play at all.

I hope they quit the game then.

 

Co-op is the last place in this game where a aggressive playstyle is rewarded and indeed needed so please keep them away from there. I've seen too many bad players trying to camp in co-op with the only results being either that the rest of the team gets crushed by twice their own numbers in bots or the game ends in a win with them at the bottom with <100 BXP and me at the top.

 

Co-op is not the right place for camping either. If they want to camp, they should buy a tent and go deep into a dark forrest where they can't hurt anyone but themselves.

People wanting to to play a camping shooter game should play one of the hunting or sniper simulators where you wait 30 minutes to get the perfect shot and then mission is over

Oh yea, I have conducted very unsportingly the previous days, ramming DDs in spectator mode out of their hideouts into the open. Suddenly, after 5 min of inactivity, smoke rises from their exhausts. It's striking how they come to life just as they are confronted with a bit of team damage, after they ignore the requests for support over minutes. If WoWs would allow mild electro shocks I think the results would be even better.

Sometimes, when we are waiting in  queue , before battle begins, you can not just begin or entering the battle. You are waiting, even hear the battle song etc. That could happen. The only way I found in those cases, is to reset the game and try to login again. You spend about 2 - 3 min and then you enter in-game. This could explain some afk ships just frozen in the initial spot, but don't explain all cases.

Having a clan doesn't mean too much. You can set up your own clan using 1000 doubloons.

At this topic, I have some concerns. There are mates who remain camping doing nothing, behind, but other with sniper / good long-range ships who do their job, while I am spotting with my DD in the front. Most of the cruiser needs some island to protect themselves, and do maneuvers around islands for shotting and defend. As a DD player, there are many moments, I need to go back,  turn around team ships and repositioning while waiting my torps are ready etc... In intense battle moments, we can take wrong decisions too. In cases, where I detect some afk/camping stuff, I found useful  attracting the enemy bot ship (playing in co-ops) where is the teammate resting. Then it shares his ship as another good shot reference for the row of bots following behind me, while trying to disengage using my lower concealing and only shutting torps while waiting for the stationary cruiser or bb being detected by enemy bots. If I have good luck and the camping ships have good secondary guns, even better .

There are normal weekend*edit* and there are special *edit*. Last night I was in my Friesland. One of the other 2 DDs in the team, another (already pink) Friesland, declares at the start of the battle:

  'Friesland is weak without torpedoes and range. I will be afk.'

and then starts to sail behind the team on the 2 line for the duration of the game, occasionally replying to the teammembers that begged him to play or threatened to report him.

 

Usually I would not be so bothered, but something triggered me this time. Why would someone select  Friesland, which is not your average high tier pay-to-play-immediately-available-for-any-noob ship, just to go into a game and proclaim it's weak and not play.

Why bother to stay in game sailing left to right instead of just playing?

 

Wargaming should introduce a nuclear Non-Combat report to discourage such behavior. If a player receives 8 such reports from his teammates  he should be banned from playing PvP game modes for at least 3 days, preferably for one week. The Friesland on the team had obviously been reported before but still got into the game and annoyed 11 other players.

I'm not really surprised about BBs or cruisers hugging the map borders but I had a game yesterday where the only DD on our team, which is coincidentally a gearing, spent the whole game sailing around the edge of the top border. Literally looping round and round the edge of the border doing literally nothing. It was basically him griefing the entire team by refusing to play at all.

 

Makes me wish for more CV games so that at least even with a potato cv player I get some  indirect spotting.

Well a few days ago there was a post about CVs getting reported for playing CVs.......

There are so many, that we sometimes accidentally trip over some. I apologize for my violation.

 

Thanks for pointing it out, but ... you know, it would also be cool if there would be some punishment for the players out there who deliberately sabotage the game (from my example that you removed).

People, who on purpose avoid the objectives, spam voice messages and refuse to team-play.. And don't say "send replay" because I did that in the past. The guy who I "reported" kept laughing at me for weeks as "where is your punishment".

 

Maybe some day...

You've clearly forgotten the co-op battle on North back in February where you were in a top tier BB yet you went and hid behind an island and did not seem to support the team (I was on the other flank in a cruiser).  When your flank was cleared you sailed back towards our CV rather than help the team.   I believe you said you were at breakfast and that your kids were distracting you.

 

I know it's only a co-op game but you did not do your best for the team.

 

Basically, your behaviour in the past should mean you have no right to complain about others.

I know, I read it. I would still prefer CVs in-game though. I don't hate them with a passion like other players or forumites. I rather have someone provide me with information so that I can play the game more strategically and I accept that the opposite will happen to me as well. I also accept that the CV (s) can damage me, but I can also deal with them and if they manage to damage me that is them being good, not the class being OP or something. Again that is just my point of view. Lol my peeve is more of my teammates than classes or ships

Well ill tell you , i certainly hate them with a passion today.

 

Four battles today , my teams DDs have been killed within two minutes , and the CV on my team keeps trying to torp BBs , and completely ignores the enemy DDs , and lets them run riot , which are keeping the cruisers and BBs detected , and focus fired at. Absolutely pathetic.

 

The thing that bugs me most , is they can fly over in the first 30 seconds of battle and take 7k HP off the DD , basically half the HP and not much can be done to counter other than wasting a smoke in the first 30 seconds

Not all DDs have smoke either - French and European lines for instance.

Er its a matter of opinion I guess. Short of a SU CV player, normal CV player aren't really that hard to deal with. You just have to know what the class of ship can do and cannot do against a CV. Admittedly for most DDs it may be harder, but they have the capability to deal with it.

 

For example, how many DD players out there don't turn off there AA when moving forward? In most cases a CV would have to fly over a DD in order to spot/detect it, and drop a fighter to continue spotting it if the DD switches off its AA. If it doesn't drop a fighter or has none to drop, it will be difficult to line up an attack run and land hits unless the CV player is very good at predicting where the DD is moving or the DD is just too potato and continue on the same path when it was spotted. Just a simple switching off of the AA is already an easy straight forward way of dealing with the enemy CV and making it more difficult for the CV player. But do all DD players do that? No. Should they blame the CV then? No. You have to help yourself first before blaming others. If you have really tried what you can do and what the ship you are playing can do then fair enough. But if not then no.

A BB can do the same thing/similar you know and know one complains about it.
