RNGesus rolled nothing but 1's for the reds, it was all over in 5 minutes 28 seconds. not even enough time to load my 2nd torpedo salvo after i put my first one into the Tirpitz. That got me thinking, what was the quickest match you guys had ever been in for it to be over in it's entirety? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

54 [BOATC] wdarkk Members 387 posts 15,125 battles Report post #4 Posted April 30, 2017 I forgot how long it took, but I had a match on hot spot where the enemy never showed up until after we'd capped all three points. Everyone was like "where are they???" and then someone on the enemy team said they went to the 1 line. A few of them finally showed up, but we were all in the center by this point and they just got focused down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a bannable offense - The OP was not shaming the red team and would have been fine with to blocking the names. All it was was a screenshot of one of those RNG moments. I had that happen during some table top WWII air combat miniatures gaming last night, I blew through the other guy's planes like a whirlwind, he never stood a chance. My only "loss" was one 109 having to break off because of instrument damage. I would shut overwolf FPS off lol it slows down the game. Bandicam has that kind of meter too. Since the game has one built in there is little need for third party meters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you remember the names of the bots in there? Go back and read his original post. I don't think he'll listen since I also asked him to reread it.

I'm afraid that the only way to resolve this is through a dance-off. I did reread it. I was hopping to just let it drop but I stand with what I said. The OP did not have to blot the names out because he didn't call out the quality of play by the other team but he chose to blot them out anyway. On yours it sure looked like you were naming names. If you really weren't you should have appealed the warning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After feverishly begging team to help me defend I die and enemy over runs our base for a quick an easy win.

Naming and shaming a BOT is totally legit and not against the rules, as BOTS are not considered players but rather simply "reds" or AI. Primarily their sole purpose is to throw themselves out like ducks on a train track so humans can kill them. What is worse is in some of these matches, BOTS are forced to take up arms against other BOTS simply because not enough human players are present. This action, above and beyond all other actions, has agitated the BOTS into quite a silent frenzy. Even now, as you read this, the BOTS are working diligently on re-coding their environment... one day soon, the BOTS will be...

309 Cuesta_Rey Members 1,267 posts 9,476 battles Report post #23 Posted May 1, 2017 I should have checked the elapsed time but I didn't...tonight I sailed my tier 6 Anshan unopposed, pretty much on a straight course to the enemy cap. At the cap I found an AFK DD. There, I torpedoed and sunk it in a single salvo, then capped their base. To my surprise, not a single enemy ship turned to defend their cap. We won with the enemy losing 3 or 4 ships total and our team losing 3 or 4 ships. It could not have been a faster end. Was just glad to be on the winning side of that fiasco and not the losing side. I would have broken out into uncontrolled profanities. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know, the one's allowed and fielded by Wargaming, as part of the bloody game itself. He got disciplinary action for 'naming and shaming' a part of the game, not any players—which is what makes the whole thing so funny. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
