One suggestion and one rant

[smf117]

Rant first. FFS Wargaming, with the next update can you please release a stable client free of UI glitches, graphical glitches, consistent server lag and consistent game crashes. Ever since the last update I have lag for the first few minutes of the match and consistent black screen glitch for the start of most matches. I've change no settings with my PC or with my client. Internet is solid. This is on you. So again, please release a client free of glitches, server lag and crashes...just once.

 

 

Okay, suggestion time. I suggest that standard flags should be purchasable in game with silver. Camo, modules, consumables, equipment...etc all purchasable with in game silver. Basically every way to upgrade your ship is obtainable through in game silver except flags (Obviously not including permanent camo). My suggestion is only for the original flags in game. This does not include the special flags which were brought into the game with the Bismark campaigns.

Problem is on your end.  Patch notes, read them.

Obviously not.  I'm not going to spoon feed you the answer.

I do. Has to do with processors and other things I'm not going to spoon feed you. Now [edited] off.

Are you dense? Yes, I do and did read the patch notes. The change from Directx9 to Directx11 is the cause of only one of the issues I was ranting about. The server lag and server crashes are not on me. The entire NA server went down just a few days ago. This was not on me. This was on them. The black screen glitch has been something that has been going on for the last few patches. This is on them. The Directx11 change is a recent change. Your "read the patch notes" comment is ignorant and over simplifies the point. Wargaming has multiple issues over every patch not just one. Even if I didn't read the patch notes, your idiotic comment would only be an explanation to one of the issues I was ranting about. Now seriously, get [edited] and kick rocks.

Lagging while loading is not WG.  That is your PC being slow on loading.

 

Graphical bugs are your PC.  Update drivers.  Check settings.

 

Server crashes will happen.  Can't prevent them all.  Useless whine.  How often do they happen? Not very.

 

The 'black screen glitch' had to do with the order stuff was loaded.  Was changed and I personally haven't experienced it since.

Useless banter with someone who doesn't matter. I am done wasting time on you. The patch notes only contained one explanation to the rants I listed. Yeah, maybe the lagging while loading in is on my PC but the black screen glitch is not. This is something that arrived in recent updates and I am not the only one who has experienced it. Another glitch that people have had issues with is completely losing all HUD on screen, target reticle, map, personal ship info on bottom left of the screen, all ship names, and player names just gone. These are the other issues I am referring to that your "read the patch note" comment is useless for. Now FFS, take your [edited] elsewhere unless you have something more to provide. I am done with you just like most others are likely done with you if this is how you are all aspects of life.

So back to you whining and crying over a total of 2 glitches (gui and black screen) that are under the responsibility of WG.

And I'm the bad guy.

You've got to love it when one dipshit can come in and kill a thread before it really even starts all while providing no real input at all.

Some people love to troll. Judging by this guys posting habit says you just found one. 

 

Loading in and the black screen could be on your end. First try checking for updates to your display drivers. Nvidia last released updated drivers 23 Jul. no idea about what the latest Radeon are. 

 

Of if that doesn't work then it could be your mods if you have installed. Make sure any and all installed mods are up to date. 

 

Run an integrity check on the files if both of the above are done already. It could be a simple file is gone and needs to be replaced with this tool. 

 

If if all else fails, uninstall and reinstall the game. I know this one seems like a henderance but can solve your problems.

For sure. I will check for driver updates form Nvidia. No mods installed. Thanks for the input.

 

Also, no thoughts on purchasing standard flags with silver?

I experienced Black screen yesterday for first time. Got a nice rig and do my updates too lol.

 

At least I don't seem to be getting the disappearing HUD leading to game crash anymore (although sometimes  it still hangs at the 'load into battle screen' and I have to restart the game - thank god for SSDs!).

[CylonRed]

There is no way for a complicated game client to be free of bugs - pure and simple which also makes great common sense.  There are just wayyyyyy to many hardware/software combinations for it to be bug free.  Further made harder when so many DON'T have issues and of those that do - can't reliably reproduce it every time.

[pewpewpew42]

This toe_ guy is just being provocative. He clearly doesn't understand the patch notes or how an update works. Don't respond to him and he will go away. 

 

Shame on whoever upvoted him!

[BiscuitFella]

I haven't experienced any of the issues in the OP.  No server lag, no black screens.  Only every now and then, during heavy battle, the sound will go out for a few seconds.  then it's back again

[Kapitan_Wuff]

I have been getting the black screen (and red once) since two patches ago. It goes aways before contact so.. meh.. I'm not worried about it. My system is by no means high end so I assume it's on my end.

Flags in-game rewards for achievements and opening containers. Can't put a price tag on that.

 

Plus, the XP-boosting ones are in the premium shop. Why would WG enable using gameplay time to avoid spending money there?

[MidnightShamalan]

i could see them allowing people to purchase them for doubloons. not sure if they'll let people buy them with silver.

 

the economy ones are where most of the concern would lie, because xp boosting is how they make income.

maybe they could do the economy ones for doubloons only, and the combat boosting ones for both so that people can't cry 'pay to win'

Spoiler

as if Belfast wasn't already all the proof they needed

as for the client, i didn't have any problems with the last update. all my problems started directly after the server crash the other day. suddenly my game was very choppy and laggy. i swapped from dx11 to dx9 (which shouldn't have been the problem, it was running fine before) and that helped a little. but there are times where it's almost not playable. none of my other settings changed, and i had a smooth game before. anyone have any input on this?

[ExploratorOne]

On the flags, WG has stated that they think too many of them are being used in the game - the performance flags affect balance.  That was why they cut the containers from 5 flags to 4 flags, much to the consternation to those players who were hoarding containers before opening them.  In addition, they said they don't intend to sell flags that give a performance boost, such as the speed flag.  I believe that would definitely be on the path to P2W; right now, everyone has an equivalent chance of getting performance enhancing flags simply through playing the game.  As stated by another poster, the economic flags are available in the Premium Shop and I regularly restock the various XP flags with the Flags-All of the Bonuses package.  The special economic flags are also available at times in the Premium Shop.

Thanks for the input all.
