Deal at least 1 point of ramming damage to an enemy ship

[Takru]

And this is coming from the same guys that thought the Santa's Convoy was too difficult for us....

 

Yeah, awesome, isn't it?

 

Making only stage 1 accessible for Coop players, stage 4 is just ludicrously hard to do and stage 5 has Bismarck written all over it.

 

And the rewards for achieving those two stages are just... uninteresting tbh.

For all the valid complaints, what is wrong with stage 1?

[AgarwaenME]

WG EU, when we said "we don't see how you can manage to make missions ever more amazingly stupid", it wasn't meant as a challenge  

 

[svadilfari]

doesn´t promote bad play at all does it. then again, looking forward to people yolo ramming all over the place harrharr

[aboomination]

I will drive BB all week long and give you something to launch your torps at

It's nothing wrong with stage one, it's the fact that it's the only stage accessible for Coop players. Why can't they complete the other stages in Coop, too?

The funny part is that YOU HAVE TO HAVE A GOOD GAME. So let's say you ram in one game, you come 2nd in the team, what then? Try again, fail again, fail better? 

 

And the ones who ram, are mostly BB's, but BB's do not come 1st in most games, especially in domination, where DD's tend to get most XP. 

 

As i said on the portal, Leningrad with speed boost and speed flag, watch out, i am running... but i wonder how many times will i have to do this sh*t over and over. 

 

WG, READ THIS! STOP INVENTING STUPID MISSIONS AND JUST MAKE US DO WHAT WORKS, GET XP HELP THE TEAM, CAP, DEFEND CAPS ETC... STOP SPOILING US!

[mtm78]

They really do spoil us don't they

The mission is stupid but why would the rammer need to be BB? If anything, this mission might be easiest in a DD - you can get a good game in a DD while remaining full hp and then at the end of the battle - full speed ahead, speedboost and ram into some remaining ship... you have the speed for that. BBs can survive longer (and deal so much more ramming damage) but they usually lack speed and nimbleness to ram someone who doesn't want to get rammed.

Sorry, i meant that the ones who ram most are BB's. And yes, that's why i wrote that i will get the Leningrad to do this mission, i hope i will be lucky enough to get to a ship and ram, until the secondaries end me. 

 

Also, there are not many games, where DD's doing their jobs right remain with full HP. Remember you gotta expose yourself and cap, defend cap, spot etc. to get most XP.

Guess I will sail Yamato with "Die Hard"-flags, and just park at a remote area of the map so DDs can just ram me there by the end of the game. Guess Yamato should be able to tank up to 3 ramming DDs.

[Skyllon]

Let me just say, I laughed hard after reading Mission 4 description. Thank you WG for making my day. Don't you ever change!

Next iteration of missions should definitely develop around this idea. Maybe something like 'In one battle, ram 2 destroyers'?

I cannot wait for all hilarity I'm going to witness over the next couple of days.

[Trad9]

I would really like to post an image related to Vodka, a Russian tank commander from GuP and WG, but I won't. 

 

 

Hmm.. RU server have quite okaish missions...here we have EU office in Paris, so it may be something different than just alcohol to cause such influence  on human brain  

[Eviscerador]

WG EU'd

[Damanta]

Wow, and I thought the ones we had the last few weeks were hilarious.

 

I've been able to sink other ships by ramming 26 times in over 3k battles, not sure if I ever had unsuccesful rammings in the sense that I died and the enemy did not.

I'm really curious to see how this will play out when people are trying to do that stage.

[RUSSIANBlAS]

I've had over 4500 battles and have only had 56 ramming kills...

 

Logical and strong mission choice.

 

[JapLance]

Seriously WG, told you long ago:

 

FIRE THE GUY DESIGNING(?) THE MISSIONS IN THIS SERVER. FAST!!!!!!!!

 

[Syrchalis]

Next week will be CV Kraken, Top XP, 500k credits earning, Clear Sky and surviving 

 

My average CV game (save for the credits, GG economy). (I'm kidding by the way)

 

In all seriousness, just don't bother. I didn't look at it, but the rewards can't possibly be worth it. There is only a few missions ever that were worth the reward, e.g. the Takao mission.

[moomoo2]

Next week:

Do 1 point only of damage by ramming in a DD, more than 1 point will fail.

 

Earn clear sky in a tier 4 BB.

 

Hit 10 enemies with more than 3 torpedoes each in 1 match, while in a Cleveland.

 

Eat a 10 kg steak in 5 minutes and then post the video on youtube, get more than 50 million views of it in 24 hours and then drink 4 litres of milk in one go.

 

Reward. A flag that says "I like cats"

 

 

[fatmonk]

Seriously WG?

 

Utterly stupid, although i recommend doing it in a Kongo and finding a fat BB to ram...

 

 

"... same quality as the other servers."

[robihr]

yay for this weeks missions... ramming and top spot.. also 125 secondaries hit, 2 kills and surviving? except t8+ germans and yamato, almost impossible for anything else just to get secondaries hit... i wont be talking about surviving after that...

[Trad9]

WG EU, plz, talk to your colleagues from other regions and ask for master-class on missions or something. Example of current missions on RU (sorry for only a bit edited Google Translate - have no time to translate it normal way):

 

In one battle Destroy 2 enemy ship. Reward: equipment "The repair team II», India Delta signal, + 50% exp Bonus to commander. Available ships: ships IV-X levels. Available modes: random  and rank fights.
In one battle,  deal 30,000 fire damage.Reward: equipment "Emergency Team II», signal India Yankee, + 30% exp Bonus. Available ships: ships IV-X levels. Available modes: random  and rank fights.
In one battle call of the ship flooding the enemy. Reward: equipment "Smokegenerator II», signals Juliet Whiskey Unaone, Juliet Yankee Bissotwo. Available ships: ships IV-X levels. Available modes: random  and rank fights.
Hit enemy's citadel 30 times. Reward: the modernization of "steering gear. Mod. 3. Available ships: ships IV-X levels. Available modes: random  and rank fights.

 

and another one that gives +200% exp to commander in case of defeat

All the missions cane be done repeatedly

 

So....?

Current big multistage missions concept is also ok if you will have non-retarded tasks there. But having in parallel small repetitive missions enforcing proper gameplay(like it was mentioned here before) with some small rewards can change the situation on server  , as even potatoes will try to accomplish this tasks from battle to battle.

I think they feel that we don't have enough time to finish those missions. They are really spoiling us, aren't they?

[Tugnut]

Glanced at this mission last night.... did it say enemy for the ram damage? As i was thinking maybe a little kiss to friendlys might count!
