108 [PT] LunchCutter Members 362 posts 1,432 battles Report post #1 Posted January 15 Like the 3rd time I've rage quit out and removed this game... Just so many dam frustrating games that make me head butt my keyboard in annoyance. Any other game like War Thunder or whatever I don't get peeved at losing streaks but this game seems to hammer home losses.. I had a spare hour and after a miserable couple of days with appalling luck (sub 35% WR) I decided to give it one more go in my favourite boat, the Benson, 'best of 5' I thought. Well despite the positive approach it didn't help, 5 straight losses, I tried to start each game with a new attitude like I had just won 10 straight but each time I watched my team fall apart and collapse. See my torps sail into a clustered group of enemy BB's and watch them all miss.. I spent a hour or 2 yesterday playing Coop but the bots are kinda dull and predictable, every game the human side won easily and the XP/$ rewards are barely worth it. Not sure what it is about WoWs, even when I played WoT years ago and had awful runs I never cared, this game just has some physiological conditioning that seems to make me rage when I lose 6 games in a row, and instead of walking away its like the gambling mindset, it makes me want to keep playing in the vain that my luck is bound to improve. Au revoir.. 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

671 [-BRS-] Turbotush Members 977 posts 29,197 battles Report post #3 Posted January 15 I feel ya! When you go on those big losing streaks you notice that the teams you get put on are well.....how can I say this politely…..really lacking in knowing what to do. It just seems like MM sets you up for massive losing/winning streaks, I don't know if it is on purpose, but I know it is one of the things that make me question the effort and money I put into this game. What empresses me the most are the unicum players that have the skill to win even with a turd team, I envy them. As for me I have not rage quit (yet), but I see the writing on the wall. If something comes along that looks even remotely fun I will probably get in to it and my WoWS account will just go dormant. Sort of sad really, this could be a life time of fun game, but who knows.

Apparently their buffed mind control consumable is working as planned ... I've "heard" they increase the dose every time we uninstall.

557 [PVE] Rabbitt81 Members 814 posts 9,845 battles Report post #9 Posted January 15 Do what I do and make losing matches sort of a mini-game where you try to be top of the losers in team score. And then after sinking I do personal commentary on the remaining potatoes going full spud to their defeat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Au revoir.. Take a break. Why play something you don't enjoy. But uninstalling is a bit harsh. Haven't you learned by now that you just might re-install again? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
717 [HEROS] TL_Warlord_Roff Members 1,498 posts 12,737 battles Report post #11 Posted January 15 Stop uninstalling.. it just means it takes that much longer to re-install. It may prig ya off but the game is always a challenge, always a puzzle to be solved.. and will always be subject to the vicious variables of multiplayer at some level or another.

That would be good, as it seems just as many play coop as pvp, the games always start in 5 secs compared to 30 (I know it's only one side to fill). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Au revoir.. Just take a break. Actually, might could cut your breaker number down from 5 to 3. If your still wanting to play, try the operations if the Co-op isn't giving you relief. If not that, go watch television, do something constructive (honey do's usually build my hubby credits lol) It's supposed to be fun in the end. I would wager WG would rather you have a positive experience than a negative one. Good luck in future gaming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
