Guys aim i the only one who just simply Alt+F4 the game at like half the game sessions because i get fed with the goddamn idiotic submarines ruining the match ?  Or it is a common thing for other players too, that when you waste 4-5 minutes trying to kill that scumbag , yet it will still not go down , and after the game you just instant Alt+F4 and call it a day ?

 

Im getting to the point where i will simply stop playing the game cause if i see the submarine in the lineup i know its gona be a s***fest.

I stopped playing ships above T4, so I have never met one of those miscreations in PvP.

I usually like to play fast BBs and CA, saddly there arent much ships of that type on the T1-3 ...

 

btw if i land in a double submarine MM i just simply Alt+F4 the game on the loading screen :cap_old:

Nah. I'm currently avoiding any mode (besides Coop) which has submarines in it, unless absolutely necessary. If I have to play a mode with submarines in, I stop playing as soon as I can (usually when I run out of reports) as submarines have such a detrimental impact on my enjoyment of the game.

 

WG must be desperately hoping that the money from newbies outweighs the losses from the old lags who are driven away...

its a good idea to stop doing things you don't enjoy. Its weird though that you need to announce it to others. are you seeking sympathy?

When there is a special mode like this BB Brawl i tend to play that too , but if i want to unlock some new ship i need to play in Randoms ... with the subs :cap_fainting:

 

I am pretty sure subs will have a negative effect on WGs income ... but WG is not the company to admit mistakes, so even if the income drops they will push this garbage trough regardless.

Well, he's probably a bit sad that his once favourite game is nothing but a shadow of its former self now. He's probably looking more for empathy than sympathy I guess.

I play a DD with british long duration hydro, meeting subs isn't fun, but bearable. Due to the average skill of submersible scum players, there is a shortage of the colour red, that helps with dealing with them.

Tbh I'm not sure why I'm playing. I guess I'm lying to myself that submarines will go away somehow. 

Its because the game is still fun to you, you just can't admit it openly.

And that's bad why ? I'm guessing he's still trying to enjoy his game and wanted to maybe see if the subs were an absolute deal breaker before complaining.

 

Personally I know that's why I haven't quit completely yet, nostalgia is a strong feeling I guess.

Im not quiting the game yet , i just cut short most of my wows session due to submarines. I still have my hopes up for a gamemode without them, if not a permanent one but at least the Brawls are some short of relief for this.

I guess there are many players like that.

The game is indeed still fun .. but i pray when the MM count down that it will not have subs in my match ....:cap_like:And when it doesnt add one i am already happy.

Nostalgia aside i still really like the game if MM has mercy on me. But the thing is the moment i see the sub on the loading screen i already want to quite that round and go for the next.... but if MM just throws like 2-3 sub game my way i just get so upset that i call it a day.

Its more like im losing faith in WG actually fixing them.

 

Until now i was like ... yeah we had the OP rockets on CVs & it took quite some time but WG fixed it ... we also had the broken Deadeye skill but WG eventually removed it too.

 

But after half a year subs still have the homing torps & free out of jail card with dive & seems like there is no intention to even look into that from WG side. Probably i will wait till end of this year but if no fix than i will just lose my patience with the devs.

Game stopped being fun when they nerfed the Japanese DDs sold their first Tirpitz and basically catered to every BB player out there.

 

Subs and CVs are just the icing on the cake , WG don't give a crap about what any of their long term players think .

 

The game was actually more fun when blind firing was around at least each class had a role to play and battles were more balanced even BBs were balanced but as soon as they sold billions of Derpitz that all changed and the game became a camp-fest imho.

Interesting point of view. Personally i didnt really think that the game was all that passive up until the CV rework hammering the DDs with the rockets. And i even tough that adding the German CA and BB lines back in the day actually made the game more action packed.

The biggest issue are 2 subs per team. Especially in division. Cross ping - you feel no matter what. Especially if you're a cruiser, you have no chance. If there's 1 sub per team - that's something you can deal with. 

So my only request is to limit their numbers to 1 per team.

I would not mind limiting CV to 1 per team, especially in low tiers with 2-digit AAA damage numbers.

Yeah it would be good I do agree.

I avoid random battles above tier 4 just to escape submarines, their appalling design and implementation suck all the fun out of the game for me. 

 

Still luckily brawls, ranked and scenarios are still submarine free so I’m able to find my fun in the game.

I avoiding playing Random battles where subs are, because of obvious reasons.

Now for a long time I play only Ranked. There are no subs, yet. Did some battles lately in Randoms only because I wanted to farm some credits on other tiers.

 

I noticed that MM queue take only few seconds to find teams for Ranked, but when I enter in Random TX battles the queue can take up to 60 seconds. And that tells a lot about players avoidig subs and WCs.

I havent played much in that MM range but probably if 2 CV focus you not even Just dodgetm works.

Same here , and I really hope WG will scrap the current iteration of subs before those modes get infested.
