Subs again.... Not looking forward to that.

 

RM DD could be interesting, when their guns reach farther than their concealment range (without a 10 point captain).

Yep, I can agree 100%. But surely, once again, there is a silent majority that can't wait to press "G".

Nope.

Schliefens combat results go down by the week, the more normal players got to play her.

[gnist0s]

When will you make a pure BUG FIX update WEEGEE - its urgent - the backlog of fault and glitches at long as a toilet roll.

 

And will this update be the one where you KEEP YOUR FILTY HANDS OFF MY PORT AND NOT CHANGE IT ?????

 

   ZZZZZ

[johncl]

With every patch you put out ..I play less 

 

Grinding the T9 Lion ...In this patch feels like I'm playing the T7 KG5 .....So i don't play T9 T10 ..Why would i when i have to face T11 

 

Super ships de value every T9 in the game ...And yes the ship players spend real money on 

 

More subs and totally stupid mechanics to try to make them interesting ...EIPC FAIL time after time ...........

 

 

 

 

 

[Wulf_Ace]

just when i was enjoying the game without subs, they are back again...

wg will never change.

[buccaneer_invader]

BUILD 2 BRITISH SUBS AND I WILL BUY EM AND USE EM.

@YabbaCoe can i ask a few more details on this:

 

• We've also made it possible to research several consecutive ships from any branch in the Tech Tree.

 

like how does it actually work? if i already have XP on preceding ships is that taken into account?

Yes, all possible XP is taken into account. So in case you would like to fast research f.e. Budyony, as it is in this example, you would be able to do that in "one" click, so if you f.e. had Svietlana and some XP there, this will be taken into account.

Oh, pretty neato

Submarines coming back.

 

I guess its time to stop playing yet again.

 

Wargaming, when are you going to wake up to the fact that you WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO BALANCE SUBS FAIRLY for a surface ship player.

 

I have enjoyed playing the game again since subs were removed from testing.

But you can shove subs where the sun don't shine Wargaming.

 

Nobody wants subs in the game, except you Wargaming.

On 9th of February you stated as also several times before, that the game stays uninstalled. 

Sad to see now, that you are going to stop playing again. 

But let me ask you, what made you to return to the game after that 9th February? It would be interesting piece of info for me.

Well first of all YabbaCoe. I no longer play with the Smegger213 account anyway. So its no good looking at the play time of this account.

I now play with my other account SmegTheNoob. This is a new account I created to start again in World of Tanks. Don't ask me why.

But for the last year, I have been playing both games with SmegTheNoob. It is just that I get auto logged into this forum with Smegger213, and I cannot be bothered to log in with SmegTheNoob.

 

But you asked the question. What made me return to the game after 9th Feb?

The simple answer is that you removed submarines from random battles.

That is why I started playing again. NO SUBS TO PLAY AGAINST.

I have enjoyed playing the game again, but I tell you this.

When you put subs back into random battles, I WILL STOP PLAYING AGAIN.

 

Time and time again I tell you that you will never be able to balance subs fairly.

Time and time again, I have been proved right.

You can tell that because of how many changes and tweaks you apply to subs after every update.

How many years of testing has there been with subs?

But, no, subs are still not finalised.

 

But what is so galling, is the fact that your own stats say that only a small number of players actually play subs.

So you are pandering to the minority.

 

I will say it again. Nobody wants submarines in the game, except you Wargaming.

[wot_2016_gunner]

Oh, um, @YabbaCoe just one more question to understand better the new research thing:

 

since it says "consecutive ships from any branch in the Tech Tree"; does it mean that i can for example go all the way from Orlan to Petropavlovsk in one go, even tho they are of different branches (up to Shchors light cruiser branch and from Tallinn heavy cruiser branch), just as long as they are consecutive, correct?

at least it works this way on the PTS. I reset the Midway and then

so I could research Chester, 3 DDs and all CVs together (with much FreeXP of course)

Oh thank you, so as long as there's connection between the ships it works. 

 

The +700k XP i have on Orlan will be put to gud use then . 

If you wonder why i have +700k XP on Orlan; that's the XP from the Event ships (mostly Halloween) that got transferred over when those ships were removed.

but you are aware that you have to convert it into FreeXP before you can use it this way? Because of course the XP on the Orkan can be used only for the step to research the Novik

I don't think so, i asked Yabbacoe about it

Otherwise it wouldn't be much different than what we can do now and kinda of a pointless change

He said all "possible" exp is taken into account. It is not possible to research a petro with orlans exp, orlan can only research novik, so the remainder of the 700k exp is not taken into account.

 

If you converted orlans exp into free exp, then it would be possible.

 

This follows the same rules as normal research, but for players who reset a line for RB and then research the entire line again immediately with FXP they can now do that with one click instead of having to research all ships one at a time.

As was mentioned, only the XP that is needed for unlocking following ship will be taken, the rest is not used. Those are XP, that are tight with the ship, so the only way how to use that XP is the conversion to FreeXP. 

 

This change is mostly to fasten up the research to higher tiers, to make it possible with one click, not with the need to go through each ship, which was annoying.
