This was tonight, initially I thought we'd loose, the opposite team had superiority in DD's, and they were of higher tiers as well.

 

It wasn't my battle that was impressive, but actually a couple of CL's and the Bismarck... they broke through the lines in a dash, ripping a DD and a CL a new one on the way, after that it was ROFLSTOMP.

 

Nice to have supporting CL's and BB's when in a DD.

As you can see, the cruisers did a hell of a job.

what it is and it hurts nobody

That is actually a good question: "Does it not harm anyone?"

I am just horrible player, so even if I have a nice score it is just luck or other RNG miracle, nothing to share (I have posted once I believe as it was good play by me).

Question is actually if someone will post their 250k damage game, as they have been sniping in GK at max range is that an achievement? For sure it is.

Should such behaviour be promoted? For sure not.

 

I am just curious as some years ago I was looking here and saying to myself "How they have made this?". Now more often I think "So?"

 

Do not take me wrong here. Anyone can post what they want. But when I will see someone posting results from a Yamato game with 2k damage is that still an achievment worth sharing? You can but should you?

Not everyone here can boast at being a great player, myself included, but I am improving and when I get a good result that for me is an achievement I think post.. The same can apply for you or anyone else..

In my opinion, there is no such thing as a horrible player my friend, we are all players, we play this game because we enjoy it and who knows 12 months down the line either one of us or in fact anyone posting here could become a super unicum player..

As we cannot sit in on the games of others, unless they post a replay/video of the game, we cannot tell how the score was obtained so we have to take the posters word for it... Perhaps there are some that have farmed but usually you can see those straight from the start if the poster was in an active game or passive....Yes RNG comes into play but that is the same for all, but RNG aside, unless co-op, we are all individuals pitting our wits against others.. we make mistakes but ultimately we are controlling a ship apiece.

 

If you have become disheartened I would say take a break for a week and come back afresh..

 

 

I do understand your point about the Yamato like you would look at that and say as you have yourself.

[Co-Op] - Started off with 3 really fun back to back games

and then two games where having a Full AA spec makes a huge difference -

shot-18_12.14_11_32.24-0255.thumb.jpg.b4e90076059cb8df668162593bbe4da8.jpg

 

and then to finish everything off, the stupidest game I've played in a long time. The right side of the Shatter map is bloody stupid for Co-Op as the bot routes mean that 90% of the time the Bots at C will all charge to B instead and then get stuck on islands so no-one can shoot them for the first 5 minutes. Anyway, after that 5 minutes of gameplay I'd missed a few salvoes against ships 20+ km away (the only ships I could shoot at due to the bad map design) and only had a single over-pen on a DD to my name so I was abusing WG in the chat, raging about this being a terrible map when two Montana's popped out infront of me at 10km-ish fully broadside and 2 salvoes later I had 8 citadels and 2 dead Montana's....................thanks WG I guess???? :Smile_teethhappy:

I should have died so many times in this match, but somehow kept pulling myself out of the stupid situations I got myself into, until a stupid misplay while distracted by torpedo bombers brought me out right in front of the enemy Nikolai with my torps on cooldown. I'm a bit irritated with myself about that, but still, my first heroic achievment in DDs and setting a new all-time personal best damage is not to be sniffed at. It kinda makes up for the rubbish start I got off to in Wakeful.

Still managed to to go on with the "Hunt for the Dreadnaught" missions in CoOp without dying of boredom, even though it's about as interesting as watching apple slices slowly turning brown...

Had only 3 hours sleep last night, so I decided to do my daily mission run early. Took out the Sims once more for the first and the Tripitz B for the last battles... Bots are still dumb, but what sometimes worries me a bit is that there's still human players in those CoOp battles that manage to get sunk without doing anything marginally helping to win the battle... Luckily it doesn't matter... one or two competent players probably could win any CoOp battle alone...

So a friend in our gaming community recently started playing WoW's. His highest tier is 4 so I set sail with him in my clemson.

Always nice to introduce new people to the game. And you have a reason to play the low-tier ships again (and have a reason to get 6 kills, apparently :cap_like:)

It was actually a nice and slow game that evolved over a long time, and our side of the map (two brothers I think it's called) won...

 

Unfortunately the other side clumped together and one by one they were picked off as they tried to sail forward.

 

You cannot win them all, but it was a fun game :)

Asashio strikes again in Random (I do not record Co-op games or class them in this category)

My CoOp Crusade for the Dreadnaught continues... just checked: with the 100% winrate over 14 (or so..) CoOp battles today to do those two daily missions I went from 98.60% winrate at 01.12.18 to a stunning 99.24% winrate today... 179 CoOp wins in a row in December... horrible...

 

I often start the battle with typing in chat: "May the better bots win!" especially if there are no (obvious) bots on the human team... today someone answered "The bots usually win 50% of the time" which kinda shocked me. I replied "not when I'm playing" and pointed to my 99% winrate and was reminded, that this would change after a couple 1000 battles... Dude... really? "A couple 1000 battles" in CoOp? I've done 376 now total and I'm bored as sh*t already, because it's too effing easy. But that guy seemed serious. He even stated, that "in Beta the bots were so good, WG tuned them down..." which to me - as a beta player- was utterly unbelievable. Bots always were terribly easy opponents. Only marginally better than the average human potato... Didn't make an attempt to remember the name of that guy, else I would probably have been shocked checking his stats and seeing a 50% CoOp winrate on a betatester account... ^^

 

On a more serious note: I went sealclubbing educating low tier players at T2 to T4 today and managed to gather some wins...

 

I did good with a win in the Tachibana, sinking three enemies and doing 27k damage - mostly to the DDs I sunk I guess... while doing 30k damage done and 2 sinkers weren't enough to give me a win in the Smith... both games were equally fun though, and both were quite close which nowadays rarely happens in the higher levels...

Played NC, got annoyed against T10, so I went and played Gneisenau to get my wins for daily missions and feel the thrill of hunting down inferior ships. I might at some point get the prem camo for this beauty.

So I received a 95% discount coupon from steam to use on "World of Warships - Exclusive Starter Pack" 

So for 1,- I got some steam crates, camouflages and the Tier IV Premium Japanese battleship Ishizuchi.

 

Since my clan mate is still struggling at T IV I took her out for a test drive:

Last night was one of the better days, but the greatest achievement was this: near the end of the session, I was in a Tier VI epicenter game with a T-61 on my team apparently looking for a pissing contest or something. I didn't notice what exactly went wrong but after a few minutes, the guy, which I would really be embarrassed to call "my team mate", went into a chat fight with the opponent's CV player, starting off by calling him the N-word and wishing cancer on him. Those two then pretty much kept at it the whole match, with the guy on my team actually stat-shaming the other one.

Meanwhile, this potato struggling to cling to a 50% WR, killed the enemy Kamikaze, did a bunch of other stuff and in the end, came first, some five places ahead of stat-shaming top-tier OP premium ship guy.

 

And the thing is, I originally hadn't even wanted to play Random but Co-op after a long day of Clan battles, just to farm some quick and easy base XP for the Dreadnought grind, but forgotten to select the right battle type. So I was bottom tier, in the Podvoisky, which I really don't like and haven't been able to make work so far in Random, and which is therefore permanently set up for Co-Op farming, and so I hadn't even brought any signal flags or Premium consumables.

 

And in the port chat after the game, before blacklisting the moron, I asked him to remember that last part the next time he is tempted to stat-shame other players.

When you haven't got shoulders big enough to carry the whole team.... But what a game together with the Roon we defended our area well accounting for 50% of the enemy strength.. just a shame that a wayward torpedo paints me pink.. hitting the Roon, my support, neither of us know how but there you go... no video unfortunately. At the end the Reds are slamming their CV for not finding that pesky Yugumo.... I just didn't have the time to knock out the Lion but 15 more seconds my torpedoes would have had him and maybe Yorck who was also beside him...
