I can hold my own here and there, but for the most part you could call my style of play "casual". That said there are those games where even I just have to look at the sky and do my best to not just shoot holes in the wall. Been reported once or twice for my comments in those games. But you know what? You get the next game.. And damn if more often than not you get in with a good crew and you roll.. This game has ups and downs. I am trying to not let the downs be a focus...Just look at the up. craphappens. You get torped.. You get focused. Cool. Come back next game and bring the pain.

The time before was the Invisi Firing from within smoke..okay I have done that also..but this time got the receiving end of it...LOL! You know HOW that is! Okay I'm over it.. FOR NOW.. Looking forward to the NEW SMOKE Mechanics..... Edited August 19, 2017 by dionkraft Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You realize the new smoke mechanics aren't going to stop light cruisers and destroyers from doing that, right? It only really affects battleships and heavy cruisers. So you're happy about a change that will do... pretty much nothing about the thing you're complaining about. What you need to realize is that destroyers counter your battleship, accept it, and learn the counterplay that is available to you. Otherwise you'll always be food for torpedo boats.

657 dionkraft Members 3,601 posts 7,518 battles Report post #4 Posted August 19, 2017 Getting deleted in the first 5 min is mostly from CV's and a lucky hit from a far off BB. Doesn't happen often as like a Det hit. BUT...still ruins the fun part of the play when you have just started. As for being happy with the new smoke mechanics..I think its a good start in the right direction. If I had my druthers I would make smoke really what it is in real life - you in smoke you can't see in nor see out and no spotting is going help you from either side of the team. period. I like to keep it simple in that regard. For any game everyone has a expectation of reality which they embrace and I can agree to that. It's a question of what will WOW do when confronted with complaints to tamp those shouts down? It's all a balancing affair for WOW to keep all the players as happy as they can. As always it will be a test for each patch thats presented and measure the crowds reaction to it.... Oh well..looking forward to the new mods..and we will see.. Seems you are not too enthused with the upcoming.patch right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am trying to not let the downs be a focus... Sometimes it's just about impossible to contain the inner scrublord, and the bittersnark comes pouring out when triggered. Although, to make a counterpoint, if more folks were willing to play warship ''arcade'' combat instead of doing everything possible to game the engine, there might be less salt flowing about in chat and on the forums.

523 MorbidGamer Members 2,255 posts Report post #9 Posted August 19, 2017 Don't feel bad... I raged hard on my 2nd to last game I played tonight. There were 4 know it all potato players crying and one even TK'ed... Because I said our CV must be AFK. CV lived to the end of the game and scored less then me... When I was killed early in the game. We even lost the game because the one guy TK'ed me. Flipped out on that TKing bad player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
