Got dropped into a game with a fail platoon of 2 wickes DD's and a Tier 6 sky cancer (don't remember which one it was) I thought well......I'll do my best I'm my Minkaze to help change the fight. I get to a point where I'm doing my ninja torpedo lottery stalking and up from behind me comes a wickes....he pulls up right behind me and shoots his guns over my head...thus unmasking himself, I was still invisible but guess who was getting shot at....yea me in front of the now visible wickes.

 

Then he launches torps but they were to close to arm and just bumped off my hull, I'm trying like hell to get away from the little yellow bus Wickes, I'm now half dead, used my repair and my smoke...as I'm peeling away his buddy who's now comming in drops his torps from behind me and sinks me....then he utters those immortal words....you turned into my torps....

WG shouldn't even allow the game to drop into battle if fail divisions like this are together.  Problem solved.

It's been a problem in Tanks since launch, and they have never shown the slightest interest in coding platoon requirements as far as tiering goes.  My advice is to get used to it.

 

On the upside, fail platoons in WoWS can at least do some damage.  A tier 3 torpedo will damage a tier 6 ship.  That's a lot more than a tier 3 tank can do to vehicles 3-4 tiers up.

Screw that.  I keep wanting to get 2 of us in the clan in Albany's teamed up with Mike Huntz into a T10 game and still win as he wrecks the living bejesus out of the other team.     That'd be hilarious just for the screenshots alone to put up on the forums.

 

You gotta have some fun at the game every now and then...

Such great advice! Do you learn this or were you born with the gift of advice? Maybe you should write a book?  Right now I'd like to ask WG if they would give us an option to turn off that stupid f'ing collision alarm. What advice would you have for that...? Would it be, "get used to it?" The suspense is killing me!!

I'm waiting right here for your answer as I don't to miss it by even a second.

 

This is totally like waiting on Christmas presents.

Yep, neg votes definitely need to come back.  I said get used to it because they have not changed the system in 4 years of World of Tanks, and they're not going to change it in WoWS.  Wargaming has stated they don't see it as a problem worthy of development time.    Sorry I even tried to be helpful.  Why don't you take your cancerous attitude and cram it up your [edited]?

I disagree here, we don't need to get used to it, those of us who hate this mechanic need to continue to voice our displeasure about it.

 

Developers have continually told us they want to hear when we don't like something. Please, please continue to tell them so if you do not like this aspect of the game.

 

And, please add my name to the list of people who hate this mechanic. Please do something about fail divisions.

  • The orig poster has been a Member since: 08-09-2012. He knows nothing has changed. You telling him "tough titty" added nothing to the post. You are never helpful when you tell someone to just, "get used to it." You post (not the first time, either) this crap just to post. Add value or don't post.

You could post in the suggestion forum.  Wont hurt.

 

My experience is that WG pretty much ignores the NA discussion forums.  We argue a lot trying to change opinions, but WG reallydoesn't care what we think.
