Going full rage mode thinking the team is going to lose after dying a minute or two into the game, and the team ends up winning... yep, been there. I don't really mind missing out on my dailies though since x1 is pretty XP generous with a premium account. Edited August 4, 2015 by canuckster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I see a torp. squadron preparing to attack from hes right and he is still sailing forward doesn't even react on planes and few moments later 5 torpedoes are taking most of his hp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NettiWelho Beta Tester 137 posts 3,244 battles Report post #4 Posted August 4, 2015 When your BBs salvo scatters neatly around the silhuette of the enemy ship without a single hit despite accurate aim at 2.5km. Against a DD that just exposed its side to you with the intention of launching torps. (I AM LOOKING AT YOU COLORADO) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAD_3R_Marauder Beta Tester 296 posts 3,892 battles Report post #5 Posted August 4, 2015 When you are spectating and see an enemy DD closing in on your CV, you call out to the team and no-one listens. Then you call the BB close by to look behind him because there is that DD _right there_ and he keeps sailing away (fortunately, the CV got the DD himself) Oh, another one: When you are engaging the enemy at 10+km and suddenly the torpedo warning sounds - frantically you look around, expecting incoming torps from a hidden DD only to realize it is a Wickes, launching his short-range torps from behind you at a target 12km away. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every single TB wave comes for you. It's just so unfun. a dead ship can't fire back, so if i don't see him focused by my team i sink him. Torping a Jokepoint from 5km away and telling the other DD sailing for it to be careful about my torps 3 times and he still manages to sink himself with your torps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarthMurloc Players 95 posts Report post #12 Posted August 4, 2015 Me in BB being const. firing at by enemy lower tier CA past my actual firing range. It's so fun when weaker units have more range than you and can outshoot, outmaneuver you. Having a tough 3 T3 CAs vs 2 T5 BBs in the corner with 2:1 result in our favor just to see in chat second after win: "y so many hiding in there? coward noobs" Cruising in a BB with 30+s reload with AP loaded and ready to fire and then spotting unaware DD attempting to ambush friendly. Wait for bigger pray or waste AP on a BB? Oh crap, he's not paying attention, blow it. 5 missed, 1 overpen for cosmetic damage. Cruising in T3 CA, spotted alone BB who rammed an island. 3 full salvos later (for a total of 3k damage) he responds. 3/4 HP is gone, turret destroyed, torp launcher destroyed, engine critical, unable to maneuver. From one salvo and 2 hits. Yeah, he was T5... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mekren Players 3 posts 351 battles Report post #14 Posted August 4, 2015 Yesterday's game, MM feels in a mad day, throws us a game with 2 DDs on our side, and 4 on the ennemy team. On a domination map. We are mostly BBs and slow cruisers (st louis, south carolinas being the main force). We play two minutes, two bases are red captured before we can even see an enemy. We look back, and then... Our two DDs are AFK. Torpedo feast ahead. We lost, of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[UNICS] Nechrom Beta Tester 4,870 posts 10,112 battles Report post #15 Posted August 4, 2015 When you sneak up on an unsuspecting BB completely undetected in your IJN DD, you launch your torpedoes perfectly without him ever noticing. Then the CV on your team attacks him with a single TB squadron making him turn, avoiding all your torpedoes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ST-EU] Admiral_noodle Supertest Coordinator 6,337 posts 4,395 battles Report post #16 Posted August 4, 2015 a dead ship can't fire back, so if i don't see him focused by my team i sink him. Torping a Jokepoint from 5km away and telling the other DD sailing for it to be careful about my torps 3 times and he still manages to sink himself with your torps But being relentlessly targeted by an enemy you have no way of hitting back against is demoralising. Had this in Kongo yesterday. We won, I survived on 1/3 health but got pretty much no XP because all I did was wrestle with their carrier. Granted it took us (both) out of the game and I was helping my team, but it wasn't any fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

simonmd Players 801 posts 1,673 battles Report post #24 Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) You're on low health but your opponent is lower, you are lining up for him to appear behind an island, you know that one broadside fired just right will finish him.... you wait, you aim, 3 kms, easy shot, you decide to check his health and press Alt... NO, NO, NOOOOO, you pressed the Windows key!!!!!!!!!! You re-open the game to just see your ship blown to bits........

Varyagi Beta Tester 51 posts 545 battles Report post #25 Posted August 9, 2015 feel free to continue...... Dodging friendly torpedoes seconds after the battle has started when no enemies haven been spotted yet, lol. In contrast, one of the most satisfying things in the game for me is killing enemy DD or CL with stray torpedoes without necessarily aiming at that specific ship..
