[KLAN] KapteinSabeltann Players 189 posts 7,357 battles Report post #1 Posted December 5, 2015 This is going to be a rant. And I'm going to cry about "my team". But seriously ranked battels is starting to get on my nerves. I don't really think the "good players get matched with good players" really work. It seems to be more a case of equal rank players go against equal rank players... It's a nightmare! I seriously think I should just get a bot and let it play ranked for me for a week while I do something else - I bet I will be close to rank 1 after a week. I can't stand the amount of afk, clueless and sheer troll players... The title in the post says BBs but I guess it's unfair. But honestly CV's and BBs below rank 10 battles is such a nightmare - long range sniping while the team is getting slaughtered, cv's that don't move so on and so forth. Look at this screenshot. This was a loss - I guess I shoulda "carried" and I almost did but towards the end of the game our TWO BBs let ONE enemy BB cap our "home" cap while failing to kill it OR deny it the cap... they were 2V1 FOR !"#¤!"#¤"#! SAKE... Meanwhile I almost managed to sink the second enemy BB just before the timer went out AND I took the enemy "home" cap after sinking their cv, their defending cruiser AND chasing off the last BB. With 20 more seconds I would have sunk him too... Did over 100k damage - and this is the RULE not the #¤#"Q#¤#" exception! I swear playing competitive battles make me lose faith in mankind..... Guess I am done ranting (oh yeah the initial idea was no BBs in ranked battles below 10) I don't know, it's just horrible and I am pissed off.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The picture is from a ranked battle, it says so in the upper right corner. It is supposed to show that even with a great performance from one of its individuals a team will usually still manage to lose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[RAIN] Blizzard____ Community Contributor 1,120 posts 5,491 battles Report post #5 Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) I chose to close today with ranked battles, rank 5, 73 battles, 67% win rate. i found disgusting and asbdurds; there is not teamplay and all depends on dds. if the wargaming do not put a premade game mode, i quit the game.

It is supposed to show that even with a great performance from one of its individuals a team will usually still manage to lose. Yes it's from a ranked battle and that is indeed my point. And it happened again. I started playing DD in ranked as the worst thing possible is if the DDs don't do their job. This time around I capped b - then I fought a cruiser and an USN dd with my Minekaze while capping their point and sunk them both, finished getting A from the enemy team and denied them to recap it while I watched the rest of my team getting sunk (a cleveland and a fuso) almost getting killed by one german cruiser. Then as I tried to finish off the enemy New Mexico trying to get the cap back he got me while I landed a torp or two in him. He proceeded to finish off the two remaining ships on my team. So thats two caps, and two sinkings for nothing. I gave up a week ago to get rank 10 - came back today and its every two games. rank up, rank down, rank up rank down. My MAIN point is - why play ranked battles if you don't want to try? Play random battles - I'm worried its the rewards pulling everyone in and they just play like they do in co-op or random... Hope they increase the criteria for ranked battles - at least weed out the trolls in some or other way. Well I'll stop whining about this now - I have said what I came to say. Wish ppl would not play ranked when all they do is waste others time... Figured I'd manage to get to rank 10 today... I am exactly where I was 3 hours ago when I started...

Sticky_Icky Players 16 posts 1,880 battles Report post #8 Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) What does OP means in WOWs ? (noob question) OP basically has two different meanings, depending on context.... (everywhere, not just WoWS) OP can either mean Original Poster, or Over Powered. its up to you to figure out which one, but it its usually very obvious Edited December 7, 2015 by Sticky_Icky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ST-EU] Admiral_noodle Supertest Coordinator 6,337 posts 4,337 battles Report post #9 Posted December 7, 2015 Why I will play ranked - I like the ships at tiers V-VIII - I like the smaller faster games where everything matters - you get to have a real impact on win or lose - stats will be wiped after the season so I won't have to remember how bad I was - seems to get more XP - something different Of course there will be awfully frustrating games! I'm focussing on BBs in ranked because I seem to do better than in cruisers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
