I swear that every single game is either a very close loss with you trying to carry as hard as possible (unless you got absolutely murdered), or the enemy team just gets roflstomped so hard that barely anyone on your team accomplishes anything. Edit: And hey look at that we have the same amount of posts here Edited July 31, 2016 by Cruiser_Atago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Completely rofflstop the enemy team (no carriers on either team,) within 10 minutes. The only XP I get was from MOVING my slow [edited]towards the closest enemy, only to have them be deleted by a high tier BB or DD just before my guns can get in range. 100% clean sweep with no casualties....and nothing XP for a win. lol. I was the only person to NOT get a kill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4,521 [WOLF7] awiggin Members 12,620 posts Report post #5 Posted July 31, 2016 Ok, hearing more and more of this. Several players in chat were questioning whether XP had been nerfed with the patch, but that battle seems beyond bizarre. Didn't think it was possible to have no one over 1k base in a Tier 6-8 battle. How much damage did you do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,131 Goodwood_Alpha Members 3,043 posts 10,248 battles Report post #8 Posted July 31, 2016 Very similar to the result I got last time I took my Nagato out of the barn. Ocean map, one carrier per side, barely got anything done though I did manage to get just a hair over my own health in damage and might've sniped a kill. Enemy team just melted before us, only managed to sink one, two at most. Roflstomps are boring on the winning side, and frustrating on the losing side...unfortunately, I don't see any real way to stop them, or even to at least reduce their frequency. Unless, of course, WG were to implement skill-based matchmaking, but we may as well hope for warp drive and flying cars by 2020. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

157 PTX_007_03C Members 800 posts 7,594 battles Report post #11 Posted July 31, 2016 That's what happens when an unstoppable force meets a poorly fixated object. But matches like this are understandable, MM has so much to worry about (4 to 6 nations, 5 tiers, 4 types of ships, low population) that there's no room for players skill to become a factor.

1,329 Canadatron Members 5,206 posts 3,461 battles Report post #12 Posted July 31, 2016 I keep saying I don't care about my stats, which is a half truth. I want to see them improve because that means I'M improving, but sadly the teams I'm getting lumped into are not into the whole "Improvement" thing. If I focus too heavily on my stats I just end up staying away from the game unfortunately because a few throwaway games from your pubbie friends can really put a damper on your personal progress!

I was the only person to NOT get a kill. Many battles like that in the Aurora... "Full speed ahead!" Ding-Ding-Ding. The sound of the firemen and trimmers down below in the 110-degree heat cursing as they sweat it out to bring the clanking beast up to a full 19 knots, heading towards the lead first encounter at Cap A, only to arrive as it ends. "Full speed ahead to B!" More yelling and cursing down below. Clank-clank-clank--19 knots! Laughter in teamspeak at our slow progress on the minimap. Victory in the end, no kills, in fact no gun was fired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
365 [RSRC] Arbinshire Beta Testers 1,258 posts 9,265 battles Report post #14 Posted July 31, 2016 That's really strange. I had a battle yesterday that lasted literally just over 5 minutes, the enemy team got absolutely destroyed. Even then, we had people around 1200-1500 base exp.

I stopped yesterday morning, not even 10am local time, tried 6 matches, all 6 losses by a large margin. Closed out the client using Task Manager (since it's faster than repetitive close, agree, close, agree) and went about other things. Did same thing last weekend. Think I stopped even sooner last weekend though, like 3-4 losses by large not even close margins, that was on Friday evening, did not log back in again till Monday. Not going to bother logging any matches today either, just wait for the weekender's to spiral on down the drain and log back in tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
873 [SCCC] Peregrinas Members 3,181 posts 17,742 battles Report post #16 Posted July 31, 2016 Yesterday I had a 10v10 game where all 9 of my teammates died without managing a single kill. I on the other hand solo'ed a Nürnberg with my Budyonny and won. I just don't know what to say when the whole team gets killed and I have the only kill, and a full health one at that.
