Yesterday I lost the entire UI twice coming out of battle. Logging out of server and logging in again did NOT fix the error, but restarting the client completely did.

Sorry to post it again but you should put back all the freedom that was possible before 6.3, 6.3.0.1, 6.3.1, PT 6.4.

 

1. Description;

Cannot set key in Controls Setting Panel as I need

 

3. Result

Why don't you permit anymore players to set Right Shift, Right Ctrl, Page down?

Don't know about Space or other keys that other user were complaining about.

 

4. Expected result

I can set the keys to control as I need, to play comfortably as I'm used since the beginning

 

5. Technical details

I can't play comfortably with AWSD and QE, sory!

 

P.S.

If some players mess up with the keys can always revert to Default, so where is problem to keep it free?

I fully agree with it. You made the keybinds even worse since 0.6.3

The only thing good since 0.6.3 is, that some keybinds do not longer get broken after a new game start (some of the numpads get allways deleted when game starts new in the past).

 

GIVE US ALL FREEDOM ABOUT KEYBINDING.

Problem with IDS_strings appearing in key descriptions

 

(As reported previously)

Texts under ammo type, in battle screen, overlap each other when alternative mouse buttons are selected.

Text under ammo type in battle reads IDS_KEY_MOUSE3, IDS_KEY_MOUSE4

4. Expected result
As in the case of MMB (Middle Mouse Button) abbreviation such as MB3, MB4 should be used.

4. Expected result
Gamesounds should stop when the game isn´t active.

 

It might be a feature.. I alt tab during countdown sometimes, hearing the game start is a lot better then relying on the flashing taskbar icon ( which iirc doesn't flash anymore for some reason ). 

[Djerin]

Description:

Game crashes about every other time I try to load into a battle. I had a few crashes during week 1 of this test. But today it has been horrible.

 

Reproduction Steps:

I have no clue. Just crashes every 2nd game on average.

 

Result:

Well obviously I have to restart the client. When loading back in the UI in battle doesn't work properly. The mouse-over info don#t show up anymore. Maybe more malfunctions, but I don't know.

 

 

Please find out what is causing this, because this is getting super annoying really fast.

3. Result
You can hear game sounds though the game is in the background.
 
4. Expected result

1. Description
Hermelin have "firestealth"!? :/

 
2. Reproduction steps
Enemy Hermelin, fire on me (and hit) from long distance.

 
3. Result

The enemy Hermelin remains invisible, I see only the shots that leave from his direction.
Of course it was in the open sea, it was not hidden from islands (or smoke).

 
4. Expected result
After version 0.6.3, I expect that all ships do not have "firestealth".

 

[300ConfirmedKills]

As others have reported, PTS version always starts windowed even if previously set to full screen.

*snip*

 

Possibly related to this, regardless of whichever monitor setting I choose (full screen, windowed full screen, etc.), dragging the cursor to the bottom of the screen causes the OS taskbar to show on top of the game for me.

[Redeagle55]

I encountered a layed smoke-screen but it was only visible during the change from 3rd-ship view to zoom-view. It was neither visible ind 3rd-ship or zommed view itself, only on the "fly" betweent the views.

See screenshot-series



 

 

Also I had the feature that the Ribbons after hits were not displayed every time, although the master-counter top-right was increasing correctly.

P.S.

If some players mess up with the keys can always revert to Default, so where is problem to keep it free?

 

 

Sory WG,

 

but why in the latest patch for Part 2 of 6.4. you DID NOT FIX the keys remapping problem, tacking it back to the free one that was before 6.3?

 

I can't play CV anymore, I have to remap the Shift because the Right one is not recognized as well the CTRL? Why? At least give us an explanation of this unfortunate choice you made. Thank you!

 

I like to play using all the controls mapped on the right side of the Keyboard (I'm right handed so the mouse is on the right of the key...), using the arrows to sail and the Num Pad for selecting guns, squadrons, and the key right above for Consumables.

Do I break some game rules playing like that? Let me know, I'm curious about it. Txs!

[TheCinC]

Just finished a game, get thrown to log in screen, try to log in, get the message server is not available.

Server reset, or bug?

When I then try to exit, the game hangs and I have to use task manager to close the client.

 

Edited to add: seems it was an unannounced server reset, followed by a patch.

I know this can happen, but, surely, you can at least announce it/provide patch notes after?
