Dont think so. Its very rare for me to score 15+ citadels in one battle, cant imagine 30.... maybe with Des Moines and lots of mad cruisers in enemy team.

As i was thinking maybe a little kiss to friendlys might count!

[SCRUB] T0byJug Quality Poster 5,358 posts 25,506 battles Report post #55 Posted January 12, 2017 Was going to give WG the benefit of the doubt and went of to read about the battle! Maybe Ramming/Collision Significant to the battle!! But alas no. The mind Boggles.. Ironically this weeks mission would have lent itself fantastically to a CV element to the mission. This battle was one of the first times Ship born planes (Sea planes form the SP tender HMS Ark Royal) were deployed to attack another ship. Ok the attack was a failure but it was still one of the first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Egoleter ∞ Players 4,046 posts Report post #56 Posted January 12, 2017 I've had over 4500 battles and have only had 56 ramming kills... Logical and strong mission choice. That many? In 2000 random battles (plus ranked and co-op) I only sunk 10 enemies by ramming. It is a very rare occurance for me. Below 0.05 % Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HOME] RobS80 [HOME] Weekend Tester 969 posts 10,664 battles Report post #57 Posted January 12, 2017 Once again the rewards dont justify the effort. If I have had a stellar game and see a ram kill which wont throw the match then maybe, but I wont purposefully aim for this mission. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't very well camp at the edge of the map if you want to ram someone can you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a very rare occurance for me. Below 0.05 % yea everyone has different view on word ONLY. I have 12 ramms in 6k+ battles. More than 1% is quite high number I think. Fun is that ramming in more than 1% of games is called as only. But detonation chance <1% is called as too often 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[FIFO] ilhilh [FIFO] Beta Tester 2,451 posts 7,514 battles Report post #61 Posted January 12, 2017 I have 11 rams in almost 3,700 games, but I expect only about 8-9 of those were rams that I initiated - I have fallen victim to being rammed against my wishes on a couple of occasions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TOXIC] eliastion Players 4,795 posts 12,260 battles Report post #62 Posted January 12, 2017 Well, I'm sir Ram-a-lot as I've apparently killed 30 ships by ramming (8 times without dying myself). Still don't really see myself trying to complete that mission. Even if I somehow accumulate the flooding damage for previous tier - I tend to get below 1k despite playing mostly IJN DDs.

More than 1% is quite high number I think. Fun is that ramming in more than 1% of games is called as only. But detonation chance <1% is called as too often The difference is that ramming is quite difficult to achieve as a player (mostly because the opposite guy likely does not want to get rammed and tries to avoid you), while getting detonated is an RNG roll. I checked my own: Battles: 3277. Death by detonation: 32 Ships killed by ramming: 26 Looks like I'm due to get detonated soon to keep it at 1%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VC381 Players 2,928 posts 6,549 battles Report post #64 Posted January 12, 2017 2000 games, 4 ships rammed. I mean, if I wanted to complete the mission I'm sure I could try to pull it off, but again it seems like encouraging playing in a dumb way for the sake of a small award. I probably don't care enough... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[KVK] Cpt_Andre Players 710 posts 21,666 battles Report post #65 Posted January 12, 2017 I'll just copy/paste OK, now you are seriously messing with us.Are you seriously trying your hardest to drop the gameplay in your own game as low as you can? Instead of incouraging players to finally learn how to play, and to do it properly, by promoting teamplay, and playing for the objectives, you are giving us this beyond retarded missions as chase a CV in DD, and ram someone??Its too hard to make "cap 2 points" "earn defend ribbons 10 times", "tank 2milion damage in your BB" missions? Its better to ram someone honestly, whoever makes this mission, I would gladly send him to work in the rival company, so he can ruin their product. 100% this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[FIFO] ilhilh [FIFO] Beta Tester 2,451 posts 7,514 battles Report post #66 Posted January 12, 2017 Due to the santas convoys missions I am spamming my Missouri/Graf Spee to get through as much of it as possible - it actually suits me that these missions are so unappealing as I don't even feel the need to play a DD to even get the first couple of levels done.

ShortySunderland Players 144 posts Report post #69 Posted January 12, 2017 Hey, at least these missions aren't as hard nor as time consuming as the ones for the Santa Convoy, right? No need to sacrifice time for it which we otherwise could spend with our families. Seriously, who comes up with this crap requirements for missions? Do they even play the game? Are they supposed to be picked by Sergei the Village Idiot who throws darts at a chart with the mission requirements, but instead he accidentally threw them in the head of Martin Schill, who then suffered a catastrophic neural short-circuit due to a perforation of his cortices, which prompted him to come up with these missions, and the initial scrapping of the Santa Convoy?

[S_F] Arctic_Nation Players 118 posts 8,470 battles Report post #71 Posted January 12, 2017 Since we're comparing: 25 rams in 1,824 battles, only some of which were intentional on my part. I try to avoid it on higher tiers, but when the opportunity arises (low health here, high health there, very low chance of survival in further gunnery exchange), I'll not shy from it. Survived only once, when a nearly-dead DD crashed into me (I believe I was playing the Fuso). Still got sunk as my repair was on cooldown from a torp hit shortly before. Excellent play on his part.

SteDorff Players 684 posts 5,190 battles Report post #74 Posted January 12, 2017 (edited) I like ramming since world of tanks the difference is the heavy tank survives and here it dies as well can't we just crush the smaller ships with our BB and survive?
