WHY...ranked games with CV...
Kinetic_Strike replied to Ramagar_RoK's topic in General Game Discussion
Kearsarge's sitting at the back help the red team more than the friendly one. They take a BB spot, don't tank for the team, can't hit from that range (let alone help their DD's at the cap), and end up one of the last alive and watching their full health go from 100-0 in a minute. -
Playing for the team gets less rewards than just farming damage
Kinetic_Strike replied to EasternSun's topic in General Game Discussion
Yes, blame one of the top XP earners on the team. Not the other 3 T9 BB's that all finished below (special shout-out to the Izumo in last), but someone who evidently did a lot of damage and kept their guns in the match. Your team may have had problems, but the Hizen doesn't appear to have been one of them. -
Ranked Battles—The Third Season: New Maps in the Bronze League
Kinetic_Strike replied to WoWsNewsBot's topic in News And Announcements
So now the start time is pushed all the way back to 1pm in the eastern US? Ugh. -
Newest software shell and torpedo tracks useless.
Kinetic_Strike replied to lallave's topic in General Game Discussion
They are definitely teeny tiny now. Playing a DD the shell tracks are so insignificant... -
Daylight Savings and Ranked Battles
Kinetic_Strike replied to Kinetic_Strike's topic in Game Support and Bug Reporting
Yes. And you're going to say that according to current UTC time it's fine. But as the attached complete snip shows, it had started at 11 AM local time, went through nearly two complete sprints, then DST changed and poof an hour gone. (Even that snip seems off, there's a 3 hour difference between east and west regardless of DST being in effect, but in WG land only two hours between PST and EST.) Are there any plans to change the start time back to an earlier time? Edit: looking at the times closer, I love the variable 2-3 hour difference between PT and ET. -

Still broken. Stealth ranked battle nerf. -
Ack! Ranked battles an hour later now with daylight savings

Still broken. -
Yet another case for ending the MMM tool. Let the teams play!
Kinetic_Strike replied to Col_Nasty's topic in General Game Discussion
This - you don't need to hide the reds and purples from each other. You just want them somewhat evenly distributed.Take a couple of those reds, swap for greens, and that match is a lot more competitive. The skill grouping can be fairly broad as well. I imagine something like <48%, 48-52%, and >52% would be a start. Sure you might have a 62% unicum matched up against a 55% player, but it's not a massive differential at that point. Someone like that has fundamentals down pretty well and won't make blindingly stupid mistakes. -

Still not fixed. -

Update, it's one hour. As of 11:45 it was still claiming 2 hours but then poof it unlocked at noon. So the tribbles at HQ doing math aren't very good at it. -

Kinetic_Strike replied to Col_Nasty's topic in General Game Discussion
I see no evidence presented that indicates an in-game troll was using Wows Monitor. -
Looking at a 2 hour delay now. Twenty minutes after they should be available and the game is telling me 2 hours. Saw another post from yesterday regarding a 1 hour delay. Someone should check the time at the mothership. Thanks.

Kinetic_Strike replied to Arctander2's topic in General Game Discussion
And now today I have a two hour wait. Someone didn't understand how to apply the fix I think... -
NEW UI - Can you change this?
Kinetic_Strike replied to Herr_Reitz's topic in General Game Discussion
I like that effects are shown, and that it allows you to mix and match and go back before mastering, but the recommended bright yellow is deceptive and overall things are unclear. Chosen, recommended, mastered? It should be fairly intuitive not a mess. -
Ummm, WG, about Your Captain Bad Advice Collection Items...
Kinetic_Strike replied to Utt_Buggly's topic in General Game Discussion
You'd be amazed at what is at this website: https://www.pasty.com/snow/index.html 266" of snow so far. Several other interesting portions of the website including Pasty Cam, making pasties on Pasty Day at the retirement home (those wild old folk!), prizes from the Pasty contest. You can order pasties directly, get them shipped or even *home delivered*! You can even sign up for your very own Pasty internet to keep you connected out in the woods.
