Terrible teams part umpteen

Yesterday morning I was playing div with my friend, no matter the tier it was lost. We split to see if solo would be the same and we won every single battle. Sometimes they were too easy. Weird.

My latest game with Schors. Got more xp than anyone on enemy team. And we lost. 190k dmg. And in games you do win, you sometimes barely even get to shoot your guns. And get terrible xp. Most games recently have atleast 3 people die as soon as engagements start.

Why do BBs think that the very best tactic is floating still or moving back? Do they really think that manoeuver is useless?

My guess? Habit. Such behaviour likely originates in reluctance to expose citadel. If you are being fired at by enemy battleships, best way to survive is to keep bow (or stern) pointed at them and get to nearest cover. Turning broadside is suicide. Now add HE spam from rapid-fire smoke cruisers which helps prevent pushing...

 

But as with every habit, you will have people use it when not appropriate.

Do you think Wedgie cares an iota? Wedgie only cares if you give them money :cap_money:. Personally, I no longer understand why anyone would give Wedgie money.

WG really succeeds in its core goal: FUBAR.

If you are fluent in German, watch the stream from November 11th, timestamp 46:something... there you get the most truthful statement I have ever heard from WG.

Do you have a link or a transcript?

As of sunday 7th of November, a large majority of my battles are defeats. Last wednesday I had to play 16 random battles before I had my first victory.

 

Game is not deinstalled but I've had it with WG games. Time to take a large break. Found a new game to amuse me, and so far so good.

 

Your loss WG, not mine ;-)

Today I had 4 defeats in a row and I was going on my way to my 5th consecutive defeat when I achieved a Kraken and carried it with my Tallin.

Arms race is even worse - it’s like the aim is to die as soon as possible

Terrible teams happen. Had 4 in a row last night that were so bad, so so sooooo bad that I found myself just laughing at what I was seeing. Was I mad? Nope. It was entertaining watch all the ways to play crap 😅.

I’ve actually got to the point now when the other team has most of the crap players, I feel sorry for the red team 

 

No fun for any player to be mixed in with others who are incompetent

Yes, terrible teams are a pita...

Had a couple days with nearly only abysmal teams... my winrated was between 0% and 45% for those three days and 20 battles. Then the next two days and 15 battles gave me 60% winrate... and before that losing streak I had 3 days with 21 battles and a 70% winrate...

So..

It's called "random" for a reason, right?

I mean... I've got 19k battles.. and a 54% winrate... and I have it for several thousand battles... streaks happen... in both directions. Only the people who consider themselves "better than average players" and in reality aren't usually forget about this.

Because if you keep pushing usually at some moment you will realise everybody peeled off and sits tucked behind some islands 10km back and you are being focused to death while your "team mates" are plinking away at the reds from safety and when you die they type noob then run away from the enemy?

Just had a Gaede who hid behind cruisers and BBs and then abandoned his flank because he 'could not spot'. Flank collapsed with 4 ships killed. We lost. In chat he encouraged me to l2p :Smile_facepalm:

6 in a row now, down 4 to 1 in ships on Arms race immediately. Three DDs gone right away.

 

T10 gameplay is garbage, and when you combine it with Arms Race.....  every game is a collapse.

 

UPDATE: 7 in a row now.

Why do you even care AR is total garbage anyway, only thing its worth for is quickly farming some XP and creds

You've got what you deserve for playing subs :cap_haloween:

 

Anyway this CB should be fun. And then maybe time to uninstall.

It's garbage, but it is easier to farm XP in wins. :)

4 games in a row are possible to laugh away. If you have 9 DAYS in a row you will stop laughing eventually.
