My biggest annoyance ? Playing a ship built around her concealment and find carriers in game.

And steamrolls.

 

And players who do not commit to the flank they spawned in. The slowest the ship, the more it happens. This triggers me so much.

Well, let's accept that MM is sort of random even though sometimes it feels rather rigged but even the lack of balancing radar ships is sort of more annoying.

Agreed. The CV's ability to instantly undo all your tactics has taken so much out of the game.

RNG 

 

I know it's totally random - I really do. It know that over the course of a session it will affect most people equally. 

 

It still has me pounding my head into the keyboard when 11 out of 12 shots go in every direction other than the target I am shooting at. The 12th and only 'hit' bouncing off the funnel of my intended victim brings about knashing of teeth/weeping/screaming/delete as appropriate. When an Italian BB then promptly snapshots multiple citadels on your max-speed/dodging cruiser from 25km away it's time to stop playing for the evening before violence occurs.

Players who yolo and die in the opening stages of the game. Often afterwards blaming their team. Often causing flanks to fall and subsequently steamrolls.

  • BBs who camp all the time

  • CVs which try to snipe enemy CV...
  • CVs which dont spot
  • CVs which decide to strike an enemy ship, make it turn and avoid all the torps.
  • CVs which fly right through enemy fighters and lose their planes
  • CVs which roleplay an airfield and die. 
  • CVs being immune to fires
  • the fact your skill meaning absolutely nothing against CVs. (Lack of counterplay)
  • AA being useless

You mean bug with shells falling short? Well, it can be subjective, but there is a big possibility, there is a bug. Even though everytime it is good to have more data, when you experience a bug like this. But currently we don't have an info about ETA of the possible fix.

Especially in cruisers this is amazing. In a DD if the CV spots you, it's annoying and frustrating, but often he's going for you and trying to help his team, which is fair enough. In fragile cruisers however, it's ridiculous how a CV can be dropping someone 10km away and  still get you spotted while getting in position. There's no more "fun" to be had than immediately have 6 people target you in your paper cruiser because I plane accidentally entered the next postcode over.

My biggest everyday annoyance when logging in to WoWs?

That's an easy one:

  • Double CV:s, closely followed by 
  • CV:s.

It's more than a possibility - it's very real.  I have seen it, in Operations and Co-Ops, with shots against clear broadside targets consistently falling short, salvo after salvo. There seems to be no pattern to why it happens, or why it resolves itself ( though coming out of binocular view, or fixing the view on a different ship might help - maybe ? ).

It wouldn't be an issue if it only happened occasionally. 

 

When you press the "battle" button and then look at matchmaker monitor to see your team has all the red players and then enemy one has all the unicums - well, that's just bad luck. 

 

But when it happens again in the next battle, and the one after that, and the one after that, then I start to get pissed off. And it happens a lot more frequently than pure random chance says it should.

The useless AP shells of a BB. 60-70% overpen, ricochet, torp-prot hit, or does the same dmg as overpens...

People who spawn on a flank and instantly decide to sail all the way to the other flank and usually then come back staying as far away from the battle as possible. 

Amongst many suggestions this seems to be the logical one.

Regardless of your class you should in almost all circumstances hold you position/flank and engage the enemy with whatever weaponry are at your disposal --- and don' run off joining a lemming train or something like that. You might be outgunned by higher tiers or outplayed by better players. The former is part of the MM-magic *sigh* the latter is the best way to improve your game.

On the up-side, by including the 'I need intelligence data' ping, WG have been kind enough to make it easier to identify which BBs are likely to be outsmarted by their own underpants, which is useful to know when assessing which ones have any chance of being useful as support etc...

Could be. 😊 it’s a point of view…

But in my experience it’s better to go with the rest instead of going alone. Even if you know it’s not the best option. Unless you are very good and know you can hold your own. But 9 times out of 10 going alone to a cap IS the wrong choice.

My biggest everyday annoyance is WG denying the proven fact that they pander to the russian playerbase by going even so far that they not only favour the russian ships but also force propaganda videos for so called "naval legend" russian ships into our throats. DISGUSTING!
