Did we really lose this???

[Pussnboats]

We lost because a single DD was getting cap points (being too far away to be detected) while being protected by a single BB.  Our brave defenders consist of 2 BBs a CL and a CV (thats right they had no CV) and yet NO ONE would go forward to spot the DD.  That's right we lost.  This was a T8 battle as well.

[SullyQuindarius]

Yep.

[Gomez_Adams]

Got the North Carolina yesterday. Lost 17 games in a row in it. Most of them were winnable. The most frustrating loss: I was one on one with an Iowa. I had him. I had him beat...until my own Atago teammate torpedoed me and gifted them the win.

 

And of course as fate would have it, I won just now finally...after going the wrong way and not having the speed to make it back to the fight on the other side of the map.

 

Typical.

 

Edit: it was 17 in a row. I miscounted. Less than a 6% win rate.

[Robinhood_]

Looks like a ​standard battle to me mate

Never underestimate the ability of your team to fail miserably.

I've gone from 51.02% win rate back down to 50.08 in the last 4 days.

WRONG! The scary DD was protecting the BB while smoking and stealth firing in open water, launching torps that can not be dodged every 12 seconds. Unwinnable setuation.

Yeah I am about to say forget the WR these days in this game and just play for max numbers of awards, kills, credits, XP, and try to survive because you get set up with losing streaks that you can't control on many maps unless maybe you like spamming CVs all the time which I like my surface ships. It was understandable during Spring Break, but Monday was not a holiday and I was playing during 4 hours of day when all 4 main US time zones had all kids in school which usually means good teams, but no battles became a disaster again despite my damage numbers being good.

So been there...

 

Hey, I did pretty good... WHAT??? WE LOST???

 

Man I sucked this time... Oh... we won...

[Gomez_Adams]

And I'm done.

 

Just had to turn it off and take a break. It's just no fun at all losing every single game you play no matter what. Just got the Alabama, great ship, can't win. Just got North Carolina, great ship, can't win.

 

Back to Diablo III I go.

[QuantumEntropy]

Had games where we lost 3 v 7/ 2 v 5 even 1 v 3 , nothing will surprise me anymore.

 

If you lose more then 3-4 games in a row just quit cause things aren't going to go better.

[EmGee42]

I know the feeling. Went 0 for 8 over the weekend with Alabama. Could not catch a break. Started Monday with a loss but finally managed to get the first win and went 3 and 2 the rest of the evening. 

 

 

[Admiral_Thrawn_1]

Did find one fun tactic, was in 2 Brothers map using tier 6 BB and knew my team was a bad one and knew I needed to find good way to boost my score for the match high enough to make decent profit despite what I knew would be a loss, then noticed enemy tier 8 BB moving into center passage so took some shots at flanking enemies then dove into the passage head on and timed it so that by the time I cam around bend I could survive long eneough to ram. Well it worked and I got good score since enemy BB was full HP.

well maybe you got them too soon??? I mean if you cant do good in the NC why spend $50 on a ship you will not do good in....??

[Palladia]

Man I sucked this time... Oh... we won...

 

I hate that so much.  "Man I have so much damage and all these kills!  ...wait...where is the rest of my team...?"

[Gomez_Adams]

Typical troll response.

 

I'm doing just fine in them. You simply can't win when the game decides you can't. When you're averaging 60,000 damage and a kill every game and lose every time while your T10's are botting it out doing nothing, you can't win. You can do over 100,000 damage and still lose...and that happened 4 times.

 

[TheOssifrage]

Four tier 8s per side. I was in my Amagi. One shotted a New Orleans on my first salvo, and went on to kill a destroyer and cap a base. I got half of my team's kills. Enemy Alabama was afk and yet they slaughtered everyone on my team except for the three ships (including myself) at A. Even after I took off half the health of several other cruisers at the start of the game, my combined team couldn't finish them off. We lost our points because my team died in a few minutes, one of the shortest Random Battles I've ever seen.

I can tell you it's the server acting up again, servers are funny things when they have failures it does not necessarily have to affect entire server like you would expect, it can just affect certain parts of it at a time even and create really crazy bugs and allowing those with no bugs to have a field day.

Figured out the server was having the problem when teams started driving like kids but did not talk like kids and was in the wonderful 4 hours of weekday when main bulk of kids are in school so one must consider other alternatives to ships acting

 crazy. Like I had a cruiser with 500 HP firing away at couple BBs at range of 5-8 KM and I was spamming fire like crazy and they were doing the same at me only they could not hit me for 4 minutes and I was draining them. I must say Ii have never seen shells like ripple around me like that so I am even saying server bugs happened to couple enemy ships. By all rights I should have died a lost sooner but thanks to who knows what they were unable to land a hit despite aiming pretty well since the shells were all coming so close and I was barely moving.

Sometimes you just can't carry your team.

[Admiral_Thrawn_1]

 

Sometimes you just can't carry your team.

 

Well in World of Tanks Blitz you certainly can more often thanks to faster mobility, better accuracy, and have greater reach to control map better. WOWs you are a little responsible for result but lot of it falls to your team and RNG.

This would still be wrong even if you had spelled it correctly.

17...ouch... and i get disappointed if i lose 3 in a row....

[GrandAdmiral_2016]

I had 5 Random games yesterday where ships were left AFK on our team at the start. Two with DDs, two with BBs and 1 with a cruiser. When you start a game down a ship you are fighting with one arm tied behind your back and cannot make up the shortfall with an average team. We lost all 5, and I scored decently in 4 of the 5 games. I was in two other games where the other team was hit by it and we won both games. I reported it in-game the first time it happened to our team but when I saw it was so consistant regardless of time of day, I realized that it was pretty much a server connection issue that was the problem, not a player copping out because he does not like the team or the game/map choice of MM. There is enough of this lately that it might be a bigger issue than most folks think. Bandwidth overload? WG should take a look at it IMHO.

Yeah I am about to say forget the WR these days in this game and just play for max numbers of awards, kills, credits, XP, and try to survive because you get set up with losing streaks that you can't control on many maps unless maybe you like spamming CVs all the time which I like my surface ships. It was understandable during Spring Break, but Monday was not a holiday and I was playing during 4 hours of day when all 4 main US time zones had all kids in school which usually means good teams, but no battles became a disaster again despite my damage numbers being good.

 

 

Until you stop blaming the kids for your performance in the game, you probably should forget WR.  You have 109 games in the Fuso with well below server average damage in it.  The kids in this game that I know, are better than you.  Stepping up to the Nagato where you are going to see experienced Tier 9 captains is not going to be a good experience for you.
