Fun and Engaging - Much skill

[Camo68]

Honestly I felt bad for this poor sod, he took the initiative and came out to stop me pushing a cap and............................. I didn't even have a chance to select him as a target for secondaries. 

 

Full HP to 0 with 1 secondary hit.

 

 

 

 

Fun and engaging game mechanic!

Oh, stop whining!  You got your job done and killed the enemy.  Move on to the next enemy ship and the next battle.

Buff detonations and make them more frequent and the explosions more spectacular!

Like your opinion counts for anything. Get lost.

And what makes his opinion any less than yours?

[SimiaStoicus]

I still don't know why/how detonations make this game more fun and engaging?

slightly more hilarious at times but no more fun and engaging.

I'm stating fact not opinion. I'm comfortable with being insignificant and unimportant.

No, it is actually your opinion that his opinion doesn't count. I'm sure to some people it counts to varying degrees.

And how is that a fact? Because really it's just your opinion. An opinion is not a fact.

you are actually one of the first dudes i see feeling bad for  the enemy since we join a battle to kill them in the first place.

[Caderius]

Detonation is gloriously fun when it affects blatantly OP ships however, for instance, the Flint I nuked in my Tirpitz via a HE secondary hit detonation. 

[IronWolfV]

I'd enjoy detonations more if the explosions were something truly epic. I mean being ammo racked in tanks, while it sucks, having the turret blow off like it does make it spectacular.

Why would you apologize for 1-shotting? lol

it's a pretty uncivilized and barbaric way to kill your fellow enemies.

I play to kill them not have the game do it automatically

I'm reporting everyone for having an opinion in this thread.

I apologize every time I detonate someone.  Hopefully, it reduces any rage that player might feel for being RNG deleted.  I don't mind killing the other team if it is my skill that did it.  A lucky RNG round that insta-deletes a ship is not my skill, so I don't feel I that player needed to die at that instant.  A player dying because I placed a group of projectiles into the side of his ship is fine, even if the grouping is slightly RNG based.  The center of the grouping is still my skill.  A single lucky shot close to something on the ship that causes an RNG roll, is not so fine, because that 1 projectile probably wouldn't have caused a death blow by itself in any other scenario.

I have only ever, not felt bad for one player that I have detonated.

 

The only reason why I could not feel sorry for him that RNG decided to remove him from the match was that he just detonated my clan mate. The "Detonation" messages from him and my buddy were back to back in the chat window.

 

Although, that is one of the most [edited]detonations that I have ever performed. I got him for 12k health, off of splash damage. I did not even hit him, just close to him, and detonated him.

I generally apologize when I detonate someone, because sportsmanship.

I tried that, but usually get nothing but copious amounts of salt directed back at me, so screw it...enjoy your quick trip back to port.

See, but this is because you are not a potato, and thus draw no enjoyment from an unearned kill.  Whereas a potato who has not the skill to earn their kill must defend random dole outs of undeserved damage.

i like to believe that RNGgods smiled upon me and prevented me from a nasty knife fight.

I mean, just because we're trying to murder each other with guns is no excuse to be impolite!

 

Maybe I got beaten a little too hard with the sportsmanship book.

I wonder why, if detonations are so fun and engaging, that WG removed them from Scenarios.
