When you're excited about playing Warships...

[SkaerKrow]

...and then remember that it's a holiday weekend.

Honestly, it's not great out. At least, I've been getting totally blasted by mm.

I'm at a below 50% winrate, when I had been climbing closer to 52-53%.

I had a 108k damage loss in Hood, of all things where we stood a solid chance to win. Then the other (American) bbs only shot HE and got slaughtered.

It's.....disheartening.....at least for my experience. I know others may very, but I've been having soulcrushing losses today.

Played 3 games so far today 2am Eastern and 7am UK Time, 1 losses 2 wins, I have to say most of the players on my teams played well, the lost game was mainly due to the enemy just being that little bit better.

I play the Kuma (New Player) nearly every game 5+ BB's and so hard to not be wiped out too early in the game, I mainly concentrate on DD's trying to nuke my teams BB's and CV.

Had fun today so far.

It took being in a match where almost the entire team (barring my Tirpitz and our DDs) ran into two opposite corners of the map for me to connect the dots from here to Labor Day. Usually I try not to dump on the weekend crowds too much, but ye gods. Maybe I'll just stick to my Oleg for a couple of days...

Doing well after a bad streak of losses yesterday, cross fingers..

[anonym_OlK73e329bMY]

I don't notice a difference. That could be because I focus on my own play so intently I fail to observe team-related patterns and whatnot.

[Jim_Byrnes]

Did well yesterday but this morning... Oy!

[Doomlock]

I had fun last night. Granted I was a corgi but still.

[RadSammichEater]

I enjoyed yesterday. Had a good day on my main account, and an even better day on my Corgi account.

It's pleasant to come back after a break, but I've already seen several players cry about being on a loser team or some goofy noob move. One was upset at a Taiho late in match (enemy CV had 4 kills, this one was apparently ineffective) and yelled at him to uninstall. Another guy driving Shimakaze announced his ragequit after he got too close to my team and got shredded.

 

Div'd with Whiskey and Buttkicker and Cathoderay, and at least two of them were grumpy about the bad players. I'm having trouble shaking off their stupidity too.

Not only its a holiday weekend, but its a holiday weekend with a new line that was just released. 

[SkaerKrow]

Not to jump up and down on this subject, but I don't understand how players this bad made it to Tiers IX and X.

I frankly just play my game, try to win if possible, but if not, I'll try to put some hurt on someone.  I don't worry about win or lose, in the stat sense.  I do my best to win, but, if we lose, and I don't feel I could have influenced it any more than I did, then I shrug and go on.  If I make a mistake and cause the loss, too bad, so sad, I'll learn from it.  What I *won't* do is come crying to the forums that I lost.

 

I've had a pretty good day, too.  

 

Something I do if I do hit a bad loss streak is go take the frustration out on the bots in Co-Op.  If it was really bad, I'll take my Black Swan out and have some fun.  

 

As far as asshats raging at me?  Meh.  I ignore them.   If they bother me in the port, I'll report them if they're being toxic or whatever.  Then I'll /ignore them.

 

Last piece of advice: Don't bother raging at other players.  Many of them don't care about strategy  They just want to fire their guns or torpedoes at other ships, and watch them blow up, and slowly grind their way up the chain.  Whether they even try to win or not or just farm damage is *completely* out of your hands.  You can't force or teach people to care, and trying to do so just will just frustrate you..  So stop trying or worrying about it.  Do the best *you* or your clan or your division can, and accept cooperation and/or help if it comes, but don't ever expect it from strangers.  If you screw up or have a bad game, or if you're learning CV in Random past what you can do in Co-Op, learn from  your mistakes, continue on, and ignore the negative people.  No one can force you to quit playing, or uninstall the game, and only you can stop you from being frustrated.

It does not require skill to grind to Tier X, just time and/or money.
