Folks still run off in random directions. About a year ago wargaming posted on their site info about curse as such http://worldofwarships.com/en/news/common/curse-voice/ It is a standalone program that will connect players with VOIP(Voice over IP) in the current match. After the match is over all will disconnect automatically. Very few people have it but when I run into someone it works like a charm. Please guys give it a try, it will make ranked so much better. I promise Here is some more info on the program http://mods.curse.com/news/world-of-warships/50854-curse-voice-giving-world-of-warships-players-a Learux Edited June 3, 2016 by Learux 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's no ability to communicate with people pre or post match. Vocal or in chat. The only way to communicate with people in game is by over-clicking on the map (which they recently nerfed...) and the use of vulgarity in chat by calling ships (usually DDs) useless for not doing their job.

I certainly utilize both methods to great effect It's possible that voice comms are de facto discouraged to prevent people from learning about their mother's sexual exploits from angry 13 year olds like they do in Call of Duty... But instead they have to deal with an angry 30 year old telling the cowardly BBs and DDs in chat where exactly they need to go ASAP (hint: this location isn't always on the map). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven't used it to connect with random players in a team though...hopefully will run into some today and give it a try About the only issue I have with it at the moment is that the in game overlay disappears behind the horizon line.
