New F-Key for destroyers

Good evening gents,

 

I would like to suggest a new f-key for destroyer players:

 

"I need to provide intelligende data"

 

I am aware that the f-keys are kinda short, maybe we can use the "Provide AA-support"-key.

Good evening gents,

 

I would like to suggest a new f-key for all other players:

 

"I need to provide support others and not sit at then back spamming the "I need intelligence Data" button"

 

I am aware that the f-keys are kinda short, maybe we can use the "Provide AA-support"-key.

I have quite a few suggestions for new and additional f-keys, however one quarter of them will p*ss off the BB players, one quarter will p*ss off the DD players, and the rest will p*ss off the CV players.

And all of them will p*ss off WG who will ban me for life from the forums and ingame chat for suggesting them because of their "no snowflake shall be harmed in anyway" policy. :Smile_sceptic:

More like:

Next quick command to be added:


“Can you please explain to me how the ‘shooting the thingy you have been spotting for the past 10 minutes’ actually works?”

and i need a "then go and get it" key for all the island humpers.

 

in reality, being able to call a target, not just the request fire support, would be useful for co-ordination.

Who can actively dodge most incoming fire and will soon get a commander skill to mitigate that even more and doesn't have a citadel

Are you talking about Dazzling/Distraction? Because that skill is completely useless on non-concealment based gunboats. The only thing they get over cap-contesting gunboats is a more expensive version of the old BFT at the expense of even more concealment.

Who has the best armor, most HP, best repair options, strongest armament - and will soon get a buffed range of secondary armament on top of all bc it´s never enough?

 

 

Besides, this is what a single HE-salvo can do to the class that can dodge *most* - but not all - incoming fire:

105171022_HEonDDmodulesincapfirespam2.thumb.jpg.0924682a429ee2cd50187d2312a4ca29.jpg

- 33% guns gone

- 100% torpedo armament gone

- engine gone

- short range AA gone (permanently)

- mid range AA gone (permanently)

- burning, ofc,

 

It really looks as if WG does this unnecessary skill-reshuffle to let us fight over it so we shut up about the flying problem for a while.

You were blapped happens to all classes except CV.

 

Get over it , You getting mega buffed with new captain skills faster torps and less damage at close range just because.

You can press f3 while aiming at a target, then you request fire on that specific target.

The obvious new F command we need is the one that applies to all classes of ship, 'What the F are you doing?'. Applies to DDs that have decided that spotting is someone else's job. cruisers that have parked behind a large rock for the last 10 minutes, BBs attempting to sail on to the next map and of course just generally about the life choices of those who choose to play CVs

(bold part) I have this happening often enough. If not by HE then by rockets.

BBs will get buffed too, the captain-perks are including buffs to the torpedo-belt, making it even more forgiving to skippers with zero situational awareness.

How is that? I must have missed something 👀

No, just no. I don't want to have to keep replacing my keyboard just because one key gets worn out too quickly.

And by the looks of the picture you gave him complete broadside DD players used to accuse BBs players of not WASD , Map awareness is key that's why I asked how often it happens?.

 

Its really hard to land rockets if the DD turns into you sure you might get some hits but very little damage.
