Ever notice when you put a lot of flags on your ship, the MM is poor?

In warthunder a similar thing happens. but seriously... even if that was the case your flags arnt just cash boosters. they can give you an advantage in battle. maybe the matchmaker thinks that that entails higher MM.

even so I have never observed this happening in world of warships.

Ever noticed when you put on your tinfoil hat, the people on the forum don't take you seriously?

 

That's just a rumor.

Yes, they are all turned against you and all accounts you've made so far...

 

Good thing i've got an endless supply, and just like aim-mods, WG will do nothing about it.

Okay, question first...do we need to wear tinfoil hats, when typing under this topic?

Yes I have seen a lot. it is best to run with only 2 or 3 flags at most.

 

 

Painted ship just seen as main target so player will kill them first.

Not sure wether it is a "conspiracy" or just bad luck, but at least, i share that impression. Usually, i put up a bunch of flags on my ships for the first victory of the day. XP boost, detonation, improoved repairs on BBs, reduced repair costs for higher tiered ships, all this stuff.

It just feels as if by far too often games with this type of setup are meant to go bad for you. Either you end up with a team that ensures the loss within the first two minutes, no matter your personal efforts and achievements, or it wins as if the enemy was completly afk, with just you being slapped into the face by the RNG, when it comes to scoring hits.

Obviously...since painted ship does not have better camo rating...eh wait a minute

No. but I find that standing on one leg and wearing my lucky hedgehog skin posing pouch always helps (spikes on the inside obviously, I'm not a total mental).

I'm going to add that the x2 and x1.5 almost guarantees you will have a bad match, if you add flags to help increase that bonus....you will be one shotted 60seconds into the match.

 

I plan to prove this.

 

:P

Yes. But only the tin foil hat. Nothing else.

 

 

I'm sorry, but Health and Safety rules demand also you wear..

  • Safety Goggles
  • A Hi-Vis jacket
  • Safety Boots
  • Gloves
  • A Hard Hat
  • Ear Defenders
  • AND a Tinfoil hat.

You forgot a machine gun, for when the aliens come.

Been using my precious supply of flags (to get extra XP to make the grind a little easier) and not noticed the phenomena mentioned in the OP. Quite the opposite, in fact.

 

Of course as soon as I used flags this evening, my tier 7 cruiser got put into a battle with loads of Tier 8 & 9 CAs and BBs ON THE OCEAN MAP! :)

 

Spent the entire battle dodging fire, but did manage to sing a Myoko and survive it. We lost though (natch) - the law of Sod!

I noticed 1 thing only. Same like in WOT. Less HP means stronger armor and invisible shield around your ship. :hiding: Finish 20 HP ship needs 2 salvos at least or you can even hit him and do nothing. Once i hit 22 HP Pensacola with Fuso, 4 hits 0 DMG and 4 guys from my team just missed him. Yep, stronk coincidence:trollface:
