[WOTN] Faceoff Players 383 posts Report post #1 Posted November 30, 2021 This is why the whole !kill! shouldnt be a thing, because of Teamkilling, nevertheless aKraken for 5 kills, cause u didnt kill 5, u had the last shot on 5. I had a perfect 95knots torp run and telling my team to shoot the spotted shima, but no both our DD and a Minotaur had to hammer that torped Georgia. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[PBF] CapnGebs Players 236 posts Report post #3 Posted November 30, 2021 I start almost every battle with "Please focus enemy DDs when spotted". Its usually met with silence or occasionally "Negative" or even "Why?". But I get a warm feeling on those very rare occasions when a cruiser replies with "Wilco" and blaps the enemy DD I have just spotted for them. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[CDD] Dutchy_2019 Players 1,927 posts 13,495 battles Report post #4 Posted November 30, 2021 This is no different than the BB-babies blaming the DDs for everything. Often being quite useless themselves. And as so often happens: the BB that screamed "Report all DDs" ended up below me on the score sheet - and put it this way: I did not make the top half of the team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After which our half health North Carolina promptly rammed him) 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've not used that one myself, but actually some of those types a crosshairs can be useful in raising or lowering you aim for an angled ship at distance. Find the diagonal line that matches the direction the target ship is travelling in and et voilà. It's been a while since I used a similar one, but it did help improve my aim.

[-0_0-] JoeSparkx Beta Tester 235 posts 5,492 battles Report post #15 Posted November 30, 2021 Given I am often in a DD, and usually one that can outright murder other DD's (Marceau/Kleber etc) in pretty short order, I don't mind if my team ignore it, more damage for me, and I LOVE the fact the reds ignore me, more time to reach out and burn you down 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have had occasions where I played a destroyer and my team left me to fight two enemy destroyers on my own, and others where every ship in range would shoot the enemy DD as soon as I spotted it. But on average, at least some teammates will shoot the DD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, friendly teammates do. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[FMA] Captain_Hook_ Players 2,801 posts 16,570 battles Report post #25 Posted December 27, 2021 Today I held a enemy DD open for 3 mins. Two BBs of my team were near to him and didnt shot at him. They shot at a BB behind the DD. I then deceided to do own damage and let them drive where they want. The end of the story both has been torpedoed and died early. I was the last survivor and ended top of my team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
