And don't get me started on doing damage or -heck- even KILL one. I am at the effing breaking point where I just enter a game to see if there are any. If not, I quit. Or once they are sunk, I also move on. Suicide tactics are helpful for getting a few shots. This sh*t is beyond fun now, it's an ugly grind.

Okay, let me get this straight.

 

You are starting matches. If you don't see any russian ship on the other team, you quit the match, leaving the rest of your team down one ship. And when there's no more russian ships available to be sunk on the other team, when there ARE any to begin with, you also quit the match. Again, leaving your team down one. And you also YOLO to try getting russian kills.

 

Yeah, I feel any "plz uninstall" comments directed at you are perfectly justified, you're ruining your team's fun. I mean, I can understand YOLO... the rest?... Nope, can't possibly be justified.

 

 

Look, one last thing. Nachi? She's just another Myoko, 'cept in green. You really want her that bad you're willing to screw over your own fun AND the fun of everyone else who happens to be matched into your team? Perhaps you need to revise your priorities in life, if so.

On one side quiting is stupid, especially for arp ship. On the other side if they do the same with a ship im interested in like premium yamato or somethin ill propably do the same. This whole idea of a mission to kill certain amount is so biased.

Well some people have differnt interesstes then maybe you. If you judge people just because the like Anime, Manga and what ever then please stop posting in the Forum because we are adults and we should be able to deal with other peoples interesst.

 

How would this be if the would do the same mission for Steven Seagal? More people who like him would also complain so is that also justic to make someone feel down just because he likes specific thinks. What if the will do a Bayern Munich or what ever football team Collobration? would you also start complaining? Probably if it is in your interesst so please leave those people alone that like those Things.

 

BUT

 

Its unter crapto just leave your team hanging because of a stupid mission. Wargaming should be able to see how many people got the ARP Takao and the ARP Nachi and judge from this performance that the should have reconsider there choices.

While I disagree with the measures, OP took, I can identify with the reasons.

The grind for the Nachi can be (and is for the most people as far as I can tell) very frustrating especially when you consider the low base numbers of Russian ships, a further decrease because "Why should I play a most wanted target" and the additional competition in form of at least 9 and at worst 11 other team mates. And one should also be aware of that a lot of frustration is self made e.g. by self-imposed pressure, if it is wanted or not. That we have only one chance to get Nachi might also play a role in this.

Well, while I will stick to the principle "If there is no Russian ship (anymore), finish the game as good as possible", I will draw my consequences out of this after I finish the mission (or fail while trying it) in the form of playing less or not at all for a while.

 

I wholeheartedly hope that WG EU will also reconsider future missions. "Kill 100 ships" is fine. "Kill 20 Japanese/USN/KM ships" is also fine because they are quite popular and make up most of the ships in a battle in all tiers. But what they should have done instead of making the SN ships even less fun to play is either throwing them together with the rest of the less populated nations (PanAsia, Polish, RN) so that their numbers are at least more on par with IJN, USN and KM, or reduce the required number of kills.

 

To pursue a goal which is by definition unattainable is to condemn oneself to a state of perpetual unhappiness.

 

Emile Durkheim

 

While Mr. Durkheim surely is right about that, here is the thing: The Nachi mission is not impossible as some people already have proven, just harder as it has (and should) be, even for more skilled players. Therefore there is nothing to absorb for the OP from this quote.

Pleading innocent before being charged. Lul.

 

 

Mate you should read more carefully, all I said was, that the drama for a ugly painted shitty Myoko clone is fúckin stupid and maybe you should act like an adult in certain aspects.

I can agree with you but maybe we can also talk about WG giving these stupid missions of "Kill X [class] [nation] ships". Maybe if we didn't have this retarded missions in the first place there won't be reasons for people doing as OP.

Yup, mission design is bad. Best time to complete the mission was in the first two weeks... which is about when I got it done. (I got Nachi on the 16th I think)

 

Unfortunately, actions by the OP only make things worse and aren't excusable in any way. I didn't throw matches away because there wasn't a russian ship to shoot at. Or it got sunk before I managed to nail it. Etc. I just played normally and earned the Nachi fair and square.

 

The OP's just acting as an asshat.

The OP is doing what's best for him. This isn't a "team" game so he has zero obligation to stay in a game he has no interest in playing due to the lack of availability of Ru Ships.

 

All he's doing is maximising his personal time spent in-game trying to achieve the Nachi mission and, to be very blunt, who cares about "the rest of the team" when there are zero rewards for "team play".

 

All this proves is that WG EU's own stupidity is causing so much annoyance but they genuinely don't a **** about their player base because, like beaten wives who won't leave their abusing husbands, we still keep playing.

And OP, how many tier VIII and above games have you played in a RU ship? None I take it? Then go back to where you came from and be quiet. If all you can do is complain about no seeing RU ships without playing them yourself then you're just selfish.

 

Also, I do hope you encounter some ppl in game who read this post. Guess if we combine the intentions you posted here with a replay we can at least try to get you punished by WG ( result is still doubfull, but meh, for ppl acting like you I don't mind spending some extra time sending in reports ).

Kutusov is pretty good. And since everyone is hunting russian ships its easy to bait enemy yolo players. Or simply lure 2-3 ships away from the battle. Just keeping distance, stop firing and vanish. And when they turn their guns away, fire couple times and vanish again.

Lets not panic simply because we cannot satisfy our need for instant gratification. I mean, really, have you noticed how people are so intent on rushing through missions to get them done because they need these things now, rather than controlling their impatience? I'm on 12 russian ships killed, was on 10 but killed two in 2 consecutive games without even noticing. We're such a feeble species aren't we, acting like ungrateful children and crying when we can't get our own way?

 

Are you so afraid you will fail the mission to the point you are going into games and quitting when you don't see russian ships on the enemy team? All this says to me about you is you care little for your team mates and only about yourself, yet for some stupid reason OP you choose to play a team based game and then act like it's some solo quest. It's a pathetic attitude to have toward the game and toward your team mates who you are screwing over by quitting out of battle.

Calculated risk for the Soviet kill is ok, but never go full retard. The plan should include a good opportunity to sink that soviet ship. The idea is that you sink only after getting that soviet kill. You can use normal aggressive play to make the matches shorter for you if soviets aren't available, but don't throw the games on purpose.

There is a thing called choice.

 

You can choose not to obsess over something that is seemingly too hard or too much work for you. This mission was designed for people that play this game regularly not 2 hours every Sunday.

 

If you really want it invest more time in it. If you don't want to invest the time then don't. Choices...
