[2142] The_Tankie Players 7 posts 4,199 battles Report post #1 Posted March 9, 2022 Hi guys! I have noticed the last days /weeks a radical change when playing the game....up until now Im usualy on the winning team and end up with a couple of kills every game (not trying to brag). But now its just hopeless, I get killed halfway into the game every time and hardly any kills, almost instantly Im spotted by the enemy team and get used for target practice..... I also notice that teammates have stopped going on the offence and are playing like its WoT, camping behind the ilands....so Im sure its just not me having lost my mojo.... =) Have anyone else noticed a difference inte game lately? Have there been an update that hav change something like accuracy, sighting range, matchmaking or are ther smarter "bots" ingame then before? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only in lower tiers and then only if you play at uncommon hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect a change of perception as your results did not get worse, to the contrary. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The PVE bots have shown a tendency to concentrate themselves (moving horizontally rather than vertically only) and to gang up on low-health ships in the last week. It's quite fun.

That cant be right, the last days have been awful....today a little bit better....got sunk almost every time but atleast we won some... This change cant just be in my head, its quite a radical change from my viewpoint....getting targeted and shelled like that all the time, no moving forward....just longrange bombardment.

[WG] Seraphice WG Staff 1,664 posts 7,813 battles Report post #22 Posted March 10, 2022 Hey! We haven't made any significant changes to our game that would have any of these as logical consequences. You can always stay up to date for current changes at https://worldofwarships.eu/ and upcoming changes at https://blog.worldofwarships.com/ As for what's happening with you, it could be a bad streak of games, or you playing differently. It's hard to say, but certainly we don't see a radical change. Fair seas captain! ~Sera Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Axilian_1 Players 322 posts 13,035 battles Report post #25 Posted March 10, 2022 It's probably the variance of chance. I'm in a similar run atm - the last 3-4 days I've dropped 4% on win-rate and just seem to be constantly on the losing side even though more often than not I'm middling to top half on my team roster for base XP (though I would say I'm a average to below PvP player). It could be a shift in the way you're playing or just playing an unfamilar ship Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
