Yup PN's are out, RDF is in the live client after the patch. Atlantic Fleet here I come. I might even play some WT or something. When WG comes to it's senses I will be back but I won't give them more money until they have proven themselves over a longer period to not mess up their own game.

TheOneAndOnlyGoldstein Alpha Tester 474 posts 816 battles Report post #30 Posted January 17, 2017 (edited) There's more then one issue here. The biggest issue is I think people just have no idea how to team play, so even when someone tries to play decent, he's jumped upon and abused in chat. The other aspect is, when you're trying to play for the team, as you saw yourself, rarely will you get a friendly to help. Each class benefits heavily of having support from another. Seeing RPF's not taken off by WG (something that is beyond the scope of this thread), it's becoming even more imperative by DDs to work with cruisers now, since they won't be able to invisiattack anyone but the laziest BBs now. When you ask for help and not get it, the only thing you can do is trade in lazily shells with the enemy or do something for the team yourself. Sadly, many times, you'll get attacked you "solo warriored" or "yoloed" even when you pull it off, or mostly pull it off, against overwhelming odds . Another aspect, which you brought to convo, is indeed, the dead in the match can see, more objectively then when they were ship-piloting, the whole battle laid before them. It's easy for them to see how the tactics can benefit the players still in battle. Most of them, sadly, use it to abuse others, how they're stupid for doing this or that. They should have, instead, help the team. W/r for me isn't a boasting achievement, but a simple tool to measure your own skill through time. My highest was 57%, currently it's about 52%. Then, I never team up with a real life friend, I don't have a guild, and the only PvP content I do is randoms. I never dismiss someone's opinion based on his or her w/r. But then, it works both ways, I never think someone's necessarily right just because he or she is unicorn player. I am personally saddened at the current disregard to older population, though, I've seen older people, specially veterans with disabilities, and ilnesses, slanted of bad play, and pushed to play CoOp. I know this wasn't your primary point, but I had to add this since it's also something negative about this community. It's easy dealing with people that will listen - or the ones that can calmly explain. Shouting and derrating, as more and more happens, someone isn't the way to get their attention, just the way to make themselves feel bad. I don't think that's good for the community. This goes for both new players and experienced people. You don't know what kind of game this is: it's a game where the harder you stat pad the more creed you have while writing something (because most of the discussions are about gameplay here). I love the fact that I can put my account details as private to avoid such e peen-waving discussions which are commonplace in WoT, where the forum goes a step further and shows below your forum image the number of battles you are in.

Kazeshiki Players 35 posts 2,709 battles Report post #37 Posted January 17, 2017 Had a game yesterday where my team has one ship left (Takao), enemy had a Bayern and NC. We had 2 caps and enemy had 1. All the Takao needed to do was run away and let the points accumulate and we would win. The two ships where way past the 3rd A cap and miles away from middle B cap. Which means they wont cap anything before the game ends. Guess what the Takao does. He goes Ahole and charges to the 2 ships to get kills, he promptly gets a Dev strike from the Bayern.
