As it is now it favours those who sits at max range in their thunderers (or whatever else BBabies fancy nowadays) while slowly keeping themselves topped up as their farm fire damage on other BBs also healing as quickly as they're getting damaged, ensuring that those who duke it out for map control dies much before and has little chance to keep stars. By all means make it slightly dependant on ship class. DDs need to be within the buff zone or within a km or two, CLs within 5, CAs within 8, BBs within 10-12. But no leeching of others efforts to gather buffs as you sit on the map border. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wilhelm_von_Tegetthoff Beta Tester 93 posts 5,745 battles Report post #77 Posted May 4, 2020 Thank god i ranked out this weekend, i can just imagine that players in ranked get worse and worse as time goes on since the good ones ranked out first (statistically *cough*). It was just like random battle with better daily missions so no ranked feeling, i just quit random play for ranked sprint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[M-P-M] Migantium_Mashum Players 3,146 posts 19,218 battles Report post #82 Posted May 4, 2020 I have to say that this last sprint event is the most enjoyable I have had to date.. I made it to rank 3 with a 100% WR, with some pretty spectacular scores, and ranked out with a 60% WR.. I certainly carried many games to victory and with the Heal Buffs thrown in... I was lethal... Best score 271,000 damage dealt in my Gearing. Took my Elite Commander XP from 221,000 at the start to 1,004, 218 at the end.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weather or not "better" players play early or late, lets leave that one open and go with your premise. You are looking only at 1 dimension, your team. You think that because worse players play now you have worse players in your team. That may be true, but you also have more worse players in the enemy team. If only clueless players are playing in ranked, 12 are on the enemy team and 11 are on your team. So if you are not clueless, your team should have an advantage. Lets think about the opposite: Only unicums were playing with 60%+ winrates. 12 of them are in the enemy team and 11 are in your team. So in order that your team has no disadvantage you have to be at least 60%+ unicum. To elevate your team above the enemy team you have to be better than the average unicum. Conclusion: If better players play at the start of a season, it its more difficult to have an impact on the game, due to the higher overall level. If only bad players play it is easier to be the one standing out and carrying the team (and keeping the star if failing). Stop thining that your team only consists of clueless players while the enemy has unicums. In my experience most of the time teams are equally clueless on both sides. Its up to you to make the difference. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TF57] Fatal_Ramses Players 1,300 posts Report post #88 Posted May 4, 2020 Ranked out in 24 battles. Could have been 22 battles but MM gave my team 3x WR35% players and we lost in 11min. In 24th MM gave enemy 3 bad DD players and we won in 14min >:D Why on earth would you run a Yugumo with out concealment mod and concealment expert? Or not use your guns in your Shima.... and ground yourself.....while waiting for your torps to reload, that you cant even fire before sinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah comrade thats why the secret is never to trust the average potato to do anything useful to help you and stand a bit back (now I mean a bit as A BIT and NOT line 10) and make sure you blap anything in range for as much HP as you can while using your potatoes as meat shields, also you ignore the "random pinging speshul admirals" and do what you think is to be done...

[PISH] Bratoev Players 524 posts 5,416 battles Report post #92 Posted May 4, 2020 A bit of both. I've gotten excellent teams in the final day playing to rank 1. That said I try to speak to my teammates. Not all the time, and i forget to do so from time to time, but its better then nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[OGHF2] Hugh_Ruka Players 4,054 posts 5,642 battles Report post #94 Posted May 4, 2020 today was interesting ... first 4 games easy victories, team support all over the place, not many people did anything reckless ... then it turned around, next 5 games 1 win 4 defeats, mostly left alone in the middle against enemy team. once I had to leave the central cap, game over ... it seems like after about 22:30 it's not worth playing ...

Lin3 Players 746 posts Report post #95 Posted May 4, 2020 There doesn't half seem to be a lot of swearing and insults of other players in this season's ranked. I've been finding myself saying in chat that it's only a very arcadey mode in this already arcadey game. And that it's bonkers for anyone to take it too seriously. For sure I try my best to win. Just as I try my best to win every game. But it's only an ultra arcadey game mode. No need to get worked up about it. I've been getting through my Reports for misbehaviour-in-chat at a rapid rate. Not that the reports do any good or are anything I should take seriously anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
