33 Suicide_Jockey Members 20 posts 8,761 battles Report post #1 Posted January 16, 2019 Been playing on and off for about four hours this morning in my GK. Idk, probably ~15 games in it, all losses. Always first or second in damage done and split if I'm still floating. Jump in my Monty, win, win, win. Yamo, same luck. Back in the GK, the losses keep stacking up. Started the morning 52% w/l ratio. Sitting at 45% now. Seems beyond random at this point but just curious if you guys have the same luck sometimes? Or if you have one ship that seems to draw a bad team more time than not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
77 [NNG] Acura_invader Members 126 posts 4,273 battles Report post #2 Posted January 16, 2019 In the past, I am as same as you. Now if I constantly lose 3 times. I stop playing this game. You can check your teammates ‘win rate. MM in this game is ridiculous. Sometimes you can win all day long, sometimes lose all the time. Play game for fun, if you can’t feel happy, just stop. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,895 [-BUI-] Zenn3k Members 2,369 posts 6,383 battles Report post #3 Posted January 16, 2019 Unless I went on a long winning streak, I usually log off after 3 losses myself. Last night it didn't even take three, two losses and a game where I died a bit earlier than I expected and that was all I could stand for the night, my team apparently won that game (I found that out hours later), but I didn't really care at the time. Doing 150k damage with some kills and losing really saps all the fun out of the game, especially when both losses were totally winnable, but your teammates just suicide and lose a winning game. The amazing ability of players to turn wins into losses never ceases to amaze me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
405 [TDG] YeOldeTraveller Members 1,851 posts 13,915 battles Report post #4 Posted January 16, 2019 I think the most I have lost in a row in a single ship was 11, and that was to get the First Win in that ship. When there is not some special event going (like now), I tend to move to another ship for the day on the first loss in that ship. (I have many lines that I am grinding, so this is more a feature getting me into different ships.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone gets those losing streaks. I think I had a 15 or maybe even 20 games in a row lost one time and I have had the same thing with a winning streak. Random is a fickle lover.

1,791 [PVE] Rabbitt81 Members 1,696 posts 15,843 battles Report post #8 Posted January 16, 2019 Way back when Ranked was tier 7, also known as the big Belfast cash grab, the only tier 7 I had was the Pensacola. I went 32 losses in a row before throwing in the towel. You would think that in 32 matches I would get at least one carry? Still blows my mind when I try to figure out how it was possible to lose that many in a row. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2,012 Legio_X_ Members 2,439 posts 5,404 battles Report post #9 Posted January 16, 2019 Some ships just click for me. Barely pushing 50% w/l ratio in Baltimore, but hanging close to 90% Russian cruiser chappy. Really don’t like US cruiser line starting at T8. Gonna hang it up for a bit and try new lines then come back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,888 Kami -Members- 1,642 posts 1,277 battles Report post #16 Posted January 16, 2019 Hello, I have had a rule for awhile.. If I lose 3 straight games I take a break and go do something else. Sometimes it is good to just clear the head and come back later. Your ships will be there when you come back =). I hope it gets better for you in your GK! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,169 [HINON] MaliceA4Thought Alpha Tester, Alpha Tester 2,562 posts 4,805 battles Report post #18 Posted January 16, 2019 My limit is based on how I am playing on any particular session, not on how others are playing. If it was partially my fault for doing somethiing really stupid then if that's the way I play 2 in a row, i find something else for the night because I am not helping me OR the team. If I played well and lost because .. well it's random, then I'll keep playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
43 xovian Members 236 posts 1,692 battles Report post #19 Posted January 16, 2019 I don't pay attention, just move to another ship for a bit. Think far too much is put into peoples win rate, when win rate has a lot of factors outside a players control. And personally, i think this has a bigger negative impact on keeping players then MM or the like. But that's just IMO. Besides that's what ranked is for. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

190 collisionSpace Members 837 posts 14,898 battles Report post #25 Posted January 17, 2019 Three seems to be the limit I can endure, especially when the teams are terrible (and 75% of them have been for the last two weeks). There's always the option to switch to the weekly operation to blow off some steam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
