379 surratus Members 1,048 posts 4,485 battles Report post #2 Posted February 24, 2021 You locked the thread while I was typing...not a bug, but a question. @Hapa_Fodder From the section Visual and Other Enhancements: "These changes, depending on individual computer configurations and game settings, will not affect performance, but at peak loads will improve it significantly." This sentence doesn't make sense to me. Was it intended to be written "These changes, depending on individual computer configurations and game settings, will not negatively affect performance, but at peak loads will improve it significantly?" (Not an English major so my confusion could be my own.) And by "peak loads" is this referring to CPU, GPU, or both? (Or the electrical grid - it's been in the news lately, as I'm sure you know.) Do these changes, as well as any other recent changes more strongly recommend moving the game from a HDD to a SSD? I ask because I have recently noticed a reduction in both CPU and GPU temps while in the port screen. Not exactly sure when that occurred, but...thanks? (Assumes a graphic setting was not unknowingly changed during game updates.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

181 [-NT-] celticboy27 Members 209 posts 5,226 battles Report post #6 Posted February 24, 2021 I don’t know about everyone else, but I’d be a lot more interested in Big Hunt if I could use my real world ships instead of the fantasy ones. It’s just, I have limited gaming time. If I’m going to play, I’d like to keep earning progressing in economics, combat missions, and tech tree grinds, and Big Hunt doesn’t directly help me with that, ya know? Copied from my DevBul post because I was a bad boy as I shouldve posted it here apparently... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,522 [WOLFC] DocWalker Members 3,200 posts Report post #11 Posted February 26, 2021 For the first time ever I felt "dizzy" due to the graphics effects of the game ... Attached is the battle replay ... I tried to rewatch it but can't get it to load even if I set WGC to the PTS ... but the effect occurred after I entered the cap. 20210225_172546_PASB518-Massachusetts_37_Ridge.wowsreplay 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

135 [-OPS-] bwana_2019 Members 79 posts Report post #13 Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) I had this strange bug when playing the "Big Hunt" on the PTS It tells me that my Ship is still in Battle and cannot be used but it still appears in Port. It sat like this for more 40 minutes, I ended up leaving the game totally and the logging back on which cleared the fault.

135 [-OPS-] bwana_2019 Members 79 posts Report post #14 Posted February 26, 2021 Another strange thing is the amount of Battle points you need to earn on the Combat missions page. As you can see for each mission I need to earn %(_amount)s points to progress. I don't understand what this means. Maybe a programming error Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think ships hurt badly by the commander skill rework could also be looked up namely the Flint, Smolenks and the hard earned Colbert had needed what was once AFT to be effective and large/battle cruisers such as Kronst and Alaska that required some of the survivability skills thats now only exclusive to BBs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

740 [MHG] Gemlin Members 967 posts 23,521 battles Report post #17 Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) I noticed the following: 1. Halsey's Tracers are now BLUE. Can you make them RED again. 2. Sometimes shells hit islands but don't explode. They disappear. 3. Hydro Pulse Graphic around a boat. When boat sinks, the graphic still appears to pulse a circle.

This. Cruiser skills in particular need a hard second look, or the ships need to be adjusted to make up for the lost skills. Those small gun cruisers probably took the biggest hit of all, with the lost range and reload/ROF. Edited February 26, 2021 by KilljoyCutter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
