0.5.9 Update Bug report

[SuperNikoPower]

Have you found any bugs or gremlins in the new update? Let us know here

[The_Jhereg]

The audio of ambient (wind, waves, etc.) breaks looping and randomly resets leading to breaks in sound flow.  Also for the first time ever the port interface got stuck on my Murmansk, could change the various capabilities of the Murmansk itself but could not select any other ship.  So I hit battle and upon returning to the port it was a fade between the last battle end screen and the port (graphics were also flashing) and locked.

 

Edit: No mods being used, stock client.

In Settings when I select to change the cross hairs I get some glitches... as if I am pressing the exit/esc button. I am asked to Save or Cancel - before I get to the crosshairs options,

as if the crosshair selection is done outside in its own separate "crosshairs" program

 

no mods, repeatable

Lost the camo on the Atlanta

[dionkraft]

camo mnissing on Atlanta and Murmank but reapplied as it is FREE and it stayed on.

Was bounced off line but logged on and resumed game quickly.  I mean quicker than ever before!!

 

Otherwise it has been a smooth experience. The CHOPPY waters and the slight ship sway is realistic and nice.

I was bounced out of two matches and by the time I got back I was dead both times.  I have never been bounced previously in 1900+ matches.   Lag has been a big problem today, even after exiting the game twice (in addition to the two times the game dropped me).  Finally, I couldn't exit the game from the port screen because none of the game action buttons worked.  I had to go to Task Manager to get out of the game.

Looks more like it set any enabled auto-resupply to disabled including the camos on all premium ships...

 

Actualy on anything else too like flags, consumeables etc.

[Hifumin]

It was in the patch notes. Oops.

Started to download this mornig, was half downloaded after some hours then came back after another couple of hours and found a messagge that said: Error, data in the Update Server is unavailable. Please see the log file.

Now i started the download all again from 0 (last i saw was 50% of 1.7gb) and more stuff happens, it download at average speed of 0.0kbps-10kbps (and now says its a total of 1,6gb) wow! i don't any internet issues since all other things work perfectly.

 

Donwloading the patches are becoming a pain for me since 0.5.6.. started to play some warthunder lately and i'm really liking it so probably gonna abandon this game for a while...

 

[GuareGum]

Camouflage lost after first match post update.  Re-read the update notes and manually went through the whole fleet and 'enabled'.  Still lost Type 16 camouflage, and 1000 doubloons for Cleveland camo...even after manually re-enabling auto-resupply.

 

Not sure i want to run more ships only to find out it costs me 1000 doubloons to fix what should NOT have gotten broken in the first place.  Smells somewhat of running up the bill.

Patch notes for 0.5.9 say:

In line with the matchmaker development plan, we restored the ship sorting rule:

Now the matchmaker tries to uniformly distribute ships of different nations between the teams. For example, if two Soviet Gnevny destroyers and two Japanese Minekaze destroyers are present, the matchmaker will attempt to put one destroyer of each nation on each team. This rule will positively affect the quality of team balancing and make battles more even.

Pic shows matchmaker fails to properly sort the 2 Emdens and 2 Dresdens. And not because of divisions. You can see there was only 1 division and they didn't change the team balance. I hope the staff will ship balance tech tree vs premium ships of the same nation.

Is the Mountain warning Icon gone?

 

The one that shows you might hit a mountain/island if you shoot while in binoc mode.

Can anyone confirm?

[Rampage_Unicorn]

Hey! I wanna know why I can't put F**** camo on my ship anymore! Bout to really say screw this game.

[Mizzerys_Fate]

MVM. Read it wrong...

[DryEraser]

Can't get passed the login screen. Game doesn't progress after I enter credentials. Everything was swell before the patch.

[Deoel]

Been having a problem with the game freezing when no keyboard input is taking place. Trying to figure what is happening. Thinking of rebuilding the PC but it such a headache and I am not sure if it is Windows 10 causing the problem or Wargaming. 

[Drazyx]

60fps dropping to 4fps randomly

[Jakajan]

I had a strange bug where my camera detached from my ship. 80% of the way into the match I tried to press M to get a above view so i could at least torpedo something. From pressing M twice though it fixed my camera. Hilariously my Krazny got a destroyer with her secondaries while I was trolling around.

Yeah me too - there seemed to be quite a lot of time taken for WOW to exit fully to the desktop. Before I used F5 to clear the WOW exit screen but now I just wait and it cleared itself tho...

Another way to exit is also go to PURCHASE DOUBLOONs and then terminate your browser then right click on the WOW on the taskbar to end it there. Just sayin'

[WildFred]

I've noticed the same matchmaker problem that Matbus showed (sorry I don't have screen shots).  I played ~20 battles last night and noticed many, if not most of them had problems separating ships of the same nation.  I noticed it first in one battle where there were 3 Mutsukis on one side and 2 Farraguts on the other (there was also a Nicholas on the side with the Farruguts).

Me three.

 

This has been my experience as well. Playing along, and then the game freezes. I've also had the catapult fighter on my Colorado stuck at 0.0 seconds, unable to launch.

 

This is 2 freezes in 3 games this morning. I'm going to go outside and hope the bad ju-ju I'm experiencing gets identified.

Is the Mountain warning Icon gone?

 

The one that shows you might hit a mountain/island if you shoot while in binoc mode.

Can anyone confirm?

 

Alexf24 I still have the mountain icon as normal when in binoc mode. Have you tried using the WoWs launcher support tab and click -> Check and and repair game integrity?

 

More proof the matchmaker is not doing what it should. 2 Konigsberg and 2 Karlsruhe are incorrectly sorted. They are different tier ships. Shows the matchmaker is not just bad at splitting same nation tech tree vs premium ships.

My game has been crashing constantly today. Never had much lag or ever crashed before. I have reinstall the game a couple time and try a few different setting but it still is crashing. Played all day yesterday without problem. Could b on my side but if others r getting it too

[MagisterAurelius]

It's not you, it's something server side.  Problems with lag, rubber banding and desynchs have been increasing with the big server update they did and really got bad with 5.8.1 where every match has either lag or desynch happen now.  Even over on the NA WoT servers the ping rate and stability is garbage now.  I've sent Niko a couple of PMs over the past week and he put the last one in his 24 hour followup/escalation pile.  I don't think he's getting any response out of Development or whoever is supposed to keep the servers happy.  All I know is that both WoT and WoWs are both unplayable right now.   Try posting the problems over on Reddit... for some reason things that cause a Reddit firestorm get more of WG's attention.  And what's really sad, is that I actually sent out a referral link to a friend before all this.  I'm regretting that now because I'm sure he's going to think the game is crap.

wow, thanks for the info. Ive been going crazy all day trying to duplicate the problem with another game and even a benchmark program ran full tilt. No problems. Ill go check out reddit.
