Win Rate

[Cpt_Blackadder_II]

Wargaming

 

I am not sure what is happen and if it is your intention to be driving people away from the game, over the last week i have lost over 100 games and only won 12, this has been going on for weeks for me now where i lose more battles than i win each week. In these games i am in the top 3 most of the time and top more times than not, i cap when in DD i assist DD's in cruisers and when in BB's push up and do damage, i average around 100K damage, most times more recently. My Warships today rating shows all my stats going up but my win rate dropping like a stone. I just have no idea why this would be, it seems the better i play and the more i assist the team the more battles i lose, i do not know how much more losing i can do.

 

I always use premium consumables and flags, and try to win all the time, i know this is not possible but to be losing so many is turning me away from the game. How is it that some people say they have won like 12 in a row when i can not even win 2 in a row or some days 2 all day, i had a run 2 days ago where i lost 22 battles in a row, and ppl's win rate is like 56% and more. Why do i always get the team that has ships AFK all the time the BB's that sail to the edge of the map and do nothing DD's that sail in the cap and die in seconds, the players that yolo in and die in minutes. I am not saying that i or others i guess there must be others should win all the time but how can it be that i am so unlucky with the teams so much. You surely cannot expect players to continue playing when they lose so much. Can i please have an explanation as to why this is happening, if match making is truly randon given there are 2 teams surely i should win half my matches for example, but this is now not the case.

It doesn't.

1/10 games is when you can't do anything you will lose anyways , rest is up to you how hard you can carry :p

You care about metrical/imperial measurements in this game.

 

So what do you need?

*snip*

 

You've just had a string of bad games. It happens. You are also greatly exaggerating how bad it was. At least in the past 5 days or so your WR was around 34%. Now that's not high by any means, obviously but it's not nearly as bad as you make it out to be.

 

And it is most likely down to you as well. Would you say you are playing to the best of your ability?

£80,000 so I can buy a chieftain. My missus would probably divorce me if i dod

But noone would ever date her when they heard why

[loppantorkel]

Maybe switch tiers, class or ship? Higher tiers are tougher, some ships are worse.

Everyone can say they've fallen in love.

Few can say they've owned a tank.

 

On that note, sounds like a good trade to me. 

 

Serious talk, from what I've seen the average skill has reached a new all time low even during weekdays.

I agree with this one.

I start to laugh so hard whenever someone say to me ''you are terrible! check my stats ;)''

My reaction for that type of people is ''dude, get a f** life, outside of basement''

Yes, how dare people care about their performance in a game?! 

 

Your empty generalizations are worthless. 

 

Good players play to win. They play to win despite having lives and families and friends. But you with your twisted logic have managed to consider people better than you at a game worse in life because that's the only way you can cope with that. That is what is actually laughable.

 

Being bad is no shame whatsoever. Being bad and refusing to improve while at the same time looking down at people better than you is mind a mind boggling way to justify your own inadequacies.

 

I also recommend this for further reading.

Erm, no? Caring about stats such as winrate means people are actually measuring themselves up to the server standard and almost exclusively do so in order to improve and get better at the game so their winrate climbs.

 

If you mean to say that people obsessed with such need to recheck their priorities I can get behind that, but this simple statement of yours is highly ignorant.

Ouch, gotta need premium damage control party for that one.

I'd opt for the divorce, it's cheaper in the long run.

 

The chieftain will last longer in any case.

I dont have a problem with their performance in game, but I do have when they criticism of others. This game is full of people who criticism others, and its disgusting.

 

Your view of problem is wrong, but I didnt expect understanding.

You can tell that all of them have a real life, familiy dutys and still play for win in video game? ...So much about empty generalization ;)

Your defending of that type of people who have erections on their own stats is worthless.

 

Good players play for having fun with team mates, not for waving with their [edited]around.

So, only laughable part here is your logic.

[Jethro_Grey]

Ahh, WR...short for winrate if my memory serves me right...because EPR (e-penor rating) could be considered offensive by folks who have to measure the real life counterpart in mm, and the least important of the stats. ^^

 

WR seems to be indeed important to some players, as seen just in a game with a three man diviosion, where a Minotaur kept talking bull$hit and his only real argument was "look at my WR...66%".

For some, it seems to be a means to compare themselfs to others, either to improve (lol, applies to maybe <0.1%) or to show-off their e-willy in a d%ck waving contest (99.9%).

Would be fine if it's a singleplayer game. However it's not, more than that it's a game in which both good individual and teamplay is paramount to success. As soon as you select random battle and push that battle button you have a responsibility to do your utmost to win. You yourself may have fun e.g. yolo rushing or camping every game, but with it you're also ruining the fun of the 11 other players on your team. Now, you may simply not care as you're an egoistical [edited], but then you lose all rights to complain about criticism as well.

 

It's not like there is no alternative to random, either. If you really want to just play for fun with no care for your team, go play coop.

You were literally just criticizing others and my logic is flawed? 

 

And I am not generalizing, I didn't say that all good players have a life. In fact I don't think I am in any position to judge anyone on their lifestyle or choices so I couldn't determine who has a life. You however seem to think you are in a position to make that call.

The only thing I am arguing against is telling people to "get a life" - that sort of judgmental attitude is beyond disgusting. Ironically by saying that to people you are in fact no better than the immature e-peen waving player you claim superiority over.

 

I even agree with you in principle that anyone using their stats as a way to stifle other opinions or is wrong. Nor do I believe that better stats equal some sort of authority over other players.

 

Lastly from my limited circle of around 40 or so good players their main reason for playing and striving to be good/the best, either individually or as part of a group, is winning. The having fun part is very much linked to being successful (most of the time at least). And not a single one of these good players would ever want to do something that would jeopardize anyone else's chance of winning.

[bug]

Either I win most games for a long period of time, then other days -  or weeks - I can lose most - 10 games in a row, or more.

I had a bad month where I went from 55,8 to 54,1 % winrate (of 4000 games, thats many lost!) Had the same in WOT. Cant remeber having these ups and downs in any other multiplayer games. My damage/xp and kill rate stays the same, its just winrate that tend to flux. Must be the very bad MM. They should try something else than only vary tier +-2. But bad players would stop playing and they lose much non taxable dineros in malta or whatever tax heaven they are "based".

Actually no.

 

Firstly criticism is never disgusting. It is an integral part of the natural learning process. How do you suppose education would work if teachers wouldn't criticize pupils making mistakes and pointing out the errors and how to do it correctly?

Only unconstructive criticism is bad since it doesn't help with solving problems and typically results in people getting defensive as if personally insulted (which may even have been the case depending on how wording was chosen).

 

Secondly, it's not a sweeping generalization that players who do care about stats have lifes themselves, unless you wish to argue on the basis that a number of players are undead. Not every one might have a family to care for or a job, but that doesn't change the fact they're still just as normal people as someone who may not care about their stats. That's not an argument, that's a loaded supposition and he correctly pointed that out!

 

Thirdly, could we agree that caring about stats doesn't necessarily equal getting erections over pretty numbers? I care about stats, but I'm not success-sexual. There's multiple levels of caring about stats before you arrive at unhealthy obsession, thank you very much.

 

Last but not least, good players play good. It's quite literally spelled out. Whether that means having fun with teammates, playing solo or whatnot is subjective, but not an inherent performance quality. Fun is not directly related with playing well. I've done incredibly stupid things, but they were fun. But I typically only do them when the game is either already a guaranteed win so me derping around doesn't effect my teammates, or in cases where a stupidly ridiculousl move is the only chance at creating a chance to turn a loss around (which it typically doesn't, but sometimes going crazy really does the trick).

 

There is no fault in his logic.

[hgbn_dk]

win rate is not worth the paper to print it on.... You can only control your own ship. there is 11 other people on your team..... Even if you perform excellent and the rest of your team sucks, you'll still lose matches

[_Teob_]

With all due respect, that logic is flawed. 

 

If you consistently play better than the opposition you will impact more games positively and will win more. It's the main reason why some people have good win rates and others don't. 

 

You are right that you will still lose matches but by playing well you will win more than you lose over a sufficient sample size of games.

[Lin3]

112 games in a week? Is playing Warships your full time job?

 

If not, have you thought about making it your job?

 

In which case your interview question to yourself could be "What can you bring to the role of Warships Player (that Jingles, Flamu, Notser, Aeroon, iChase don't already bring)?"

 

Would your answer be "I can bring a lot of dedication so that I will keep playing even if I'm losing 85% of my games"?

not if you count in the fuel&service costs lol...

unless you want to use it for garden decoration, instead of that garden gnome?

[_GrimLock__]

    A single player can have a huge impact on the outcome of the battle.Getting down the right targets, push the others away...making a large of the enemy part chasing you around the map while the team secure point and deletes low hp targets.
    Huge loss streaks can happen yes, but losing so many battles it means u are not playing the objective well enough.

   And about the no life thing.If u have good stats doesnt mean u dont get out in the real life
   Some have jobs, sidejobs, family kids and so on and still manage  to have respectable results.So calling a player a no life just because he has better stats than you doesnt mean that all he does is sit and play all day long.In long term  is just a lame excuse, brought up because u refuse to evolve, learn and adapt to the game
