Does that mirror your experiences? Sadly you just need to pick a secondaries ship and inchallah . It's not really fun to be honest, just focus the escort ships and that it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I finished Udaloi with green bosters, Duncan and Brest with blue ones. Usually around 20 games, depending on the winrate and how good the games go. Modes like this are perfect to just do some relaxed games, grind out ships I would never play in randoms and still be annoyed by the droves of 40% players enjoying the repeated battle entry. Yeah, it is somewhat flawed as I described in my first post, but undeniably less toxic than randoms for nearly the same progress. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep... but did lose 5 Karma though... so many players still have no concept of "Convoy"... Leo "Apollo11" P.S. I haven't seen so much stupidity and 100% ignorance in long long time... absolutely clueless "teammates"... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Screenie says it all. My surviving team member (Pommern) pressed "S" at start and later on "A" to hide behind a Island. Only thing he forgot was to support me to get the last 2 escort ships.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[R7S] lovelacebeer Players 4,158 posts 25,223 battles Report post #59 Posted June 2 I’m currently using the mode to grind my Italian BBs and my German (totally not a cruiser) DDs, and I’m really not taking the mode too seriously. As the playerbase really struggle with the core concept of the mode. I just wish the raider medal had gold, silver and bronze or raider with oak leaves etc to distinguish those of us who kill 4 or more transports in a battle.

The mode is a cesspit for bad BB players who wish that their secondary guns could win them the game so they don't have to aim manually. And then they camp the J line. Or yolo in and die. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TNDF] KratosTheUnforgiving Players 1,010 posts Report post #62 Posted June 4 The quality of players and MM this weekend has been astoundingly bad, a few minutes in you can tell a loss, no matter how hard you try to carry. Even players with many thousands of games just cannot grasping the concept of defending transports, they still camp and hide. Convoy is now no longer fun, until WG sort out the MM, hide the exit paths, cap number of class/type of ship (sick of seeing all GK's and Schlieffens, Preussens, Shima's), allow T5-T6 to play for a bit of fun and closer gun action and most of all, the rewards needing buffing. Of course this would need WG to listen, which they do not unless you jingle cash in front of their eyes. A good idea now going the way of most thing WG, down the drain ! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TAW] Brickdust_Express Players 78 posts Report post #72 Posted June 14 In the last convoy games I,ve played, if I remember correctly I played in the attack team once maybe twice, defended in all the other 7 or 8. In the 7 or 8 defending games just 1 win. This seem's to be a daily re-occuring situation, I end up playing a lot more defending teams than attacking. Which is beginning to put me of playing this mode. This did not seem to happen as much in earlier instances of the convoy mode which I enjoyed. I cannot for the life of me see that the game selection by MM is that random., the reason I think that is because most days that I play the convoy mode I would say that I am on the defending team far more than the attacking team. So my conclusion is that it is far easier to win in this mode attacking. A possible leveler for this might be to actually decrease the amount of attacking ships allocated. Just a thought.
