First for keyboards aren't hard to fix.

just took 3 hours

Just took a BIOS reset.
It never was the keyboard in the first place.

how did you even fuck up so hard

I was cleaning inbetween the keys, then bad things happened, and it escalated from there.

I wish I could make pretty pictures like that

>2. The Ammo of British destroyers: Q-class, Ca-class, Tribal-class, L-class and Laforey, is modified into quadruple and decreased its damage as well.

4x4 Tribal-class with 100dmg peashooters?

>>server maintenance.

Time for porn.

>I don't know how this will affect CVcks
A Nelson with the AA macro could remove the Taiho's squads in a single barrage, with maybe 1 or 2 planes left at 10% HP. Its ogre.

is there no EU clan?

>obtain a ship of research level 2/3/4/5/6
soo can I complete this if I have all lines on all nations researched to at least t7

EU and NA are on the same server, post meme to join

Apparently buying and selling an old ship completes it; I just wanted to brag anyway.

just applied as IGN: DeadDood

If you added fire coming out the case, you have an accurate/plausible depiction of my PC!

Welcome aboard

>reading steam forums for patch notes

Oh MY GOD why are there so many morons?!?!

Are people really not able to figure things out for themselves?

Sweet Jesus... it is like these people have never gamed, or went into something without handholding.

... Whatever, They'll learn one way or another.

>handholding

>Handholding

Poor Ryujo.

How is this different from world of warships???

sub girls

the two are like cars.
They come in Automatic and Manual And self-driving
Automatic takes care of just about everything for you.
Manual requires much more input.

WoWS is Automatic. You really only need to aim your guns, perhaps hit WASD now and again for positioning, though they actually have autopilot to handle that sort of thing. WASD to dodge torps unless you want to claim "I DID ALL I COULD OMG SKYCANCER, OMG DD CANCER!"
Example: youtube.com/watch?v=2_Kf1He9eZA
Your AA and secondaries is handled by the AI and your ability to aim is handled by RNG dice. You can do a battleship movie level turn, and fire with relative accuracy at a target in the distance in the middle of your turn.(RNG-Sama permitting of course.)
And the time-distortion and slower pace means if you are lucky, you'll enter combat at the 5 minute mark. If you are unlucky and the enemy went to the other side of the map.. perhaps 10 minute mark. Every 4 matches has a match effectively wasted in 'waiting to enter combat'. Torps also have a lead indicator of 'shoot them here and if the target doesn't change speed or angle, they will hit'

Steel Ocean is manual. You relatively complete control your ship. The AA, the 2ndries, the guns and torps. No torp guide other than "It will shoot in this direction, and dud range indicator"

You cannot do a wild turn and accurately fire in the middle of it, and after the turn you'd need some time to aim your guns properly. (Unless you've practiced locking your guns before the turn, in which case both could be plausible.)

TL;DR WoWS vs Steel Ocean: Automatic and Manual. Each draws in their own target.

SO also has subs.

qt

please try to be more informative and less wordy

It's a different type of game, wargaming are autistic about realism, have accurate models and sloow ships, here everything is arcadey, fast and accurate, the AA is deadly because you manually control it but the planes can be made to dodge etc. Also SO has much less budget and fewer players because
>chink game

...

>Less wordy
Will do so in the future.

>wargaming are autistic about realism
Wasnt it selective realism like the slavs behind war blunder? AKA the german vehicle will have less armor/damage than it should because low quality materials or secret dokumimints while the slavic counterpart uses data from a firing range on a perfect day that even gets buffed.

or the German ME-163 rocket plane will be utter shlt despite actually existing and flying.
While the Glorious Nipponese version based off the same planes provided to them by the Germans.. But never succeeded in actual flight (30 seconds before engine/plane crashed) having almost 2x the climb rate.

botes

this sink cruisers daily really sucks

Obligatory.

were you working on cruisers?

...

Hampton sucks.

5 down 3 over.
Lel.

I've never been able to tell if Ise and Hyuuga's are insults or compliments

The definitive subhuman.

who here /35°Csummers/?

Summer is fucking rubbish. Kill yourself.

>can't pass E-6 no matter what
>play with the memers first time in two months to let off some steam
>go back to E-6, the stars align, boss gets nuked before the shelling phase

I'm going to stick with you guys til the event ends.

We got connections.

Is spring m8

Who 86F/67C here

What level should my sluts be for E-1

The real shit starts at E-5. Until that point you'll be fine with level 60's especially if you roll easy mode. I generally consider ships event-worthy for Easy when they're at 60, 70+ otherwise. I'm not one of them autists who run later tier maps on Hard though. I can only imagine how military grade aspie one has to be to deal with E-6 on Hard.

>those tiny fingers
Manlet detected.

Camera removes 10 lb's m8.
Don't you remember?

Doesn't remove centimeters from your short, tiny fingers though

>Selling Mombote for 6k silver to afford ammo on your
>2 AA bote

Whats with all these quals? I finally got my first hawkeye.

...

they decided to help newer people get qualification (and everybody else)

When you buy a T2/3/4/5/6 ship you'll receieve 150 qualification PER tier you get

But only the first time you buy those tiers.

So basically.. open a slot in your port, buy a T2, sell it, buy a T3, sell it, buy a T4, etc.
^ if you want it now, otherwise if you're working on a new line you'll get them naturally with time.

I got them, just didn't see anyone mention them in the thread so brought it up.

Grats on hawkeye by the way.

Thanks, don't really feel the effect yet, only slight improvement, need some more I guess. Well, in half a year I'll upgrade my Yamamoto or something.

Bong BBs or DDs? I need to start a new line.

I like their BB's quite a bit. First few are odd, but T5+ are pretty good, and Queen Elizabeth's a favorite.

>the ducky has only 4 torps

I've killed many a BB with invisifire using her top guns. She just isn't for torping. Scouting and fire are her strong points.

I like to corner them with torps or disrupt their aiming using half of my torps for an easy approach and finishing them off with the rest of the torps.

Here's a small BB trick:
>aim near you, hold right click
>move mouse to where you want to calibrate
>let go of right click and shoot immediately
This will fire right in front of you while giving you calibration where you want it, meaning it won't spook DDs or make it obvious what flank you want to fight on.

Huh... interesting.

...

...

So how'd the pics turn out from the training room antics?

wat

Bunch of stuff done today in Training rooms by a few of us.

Yee was going screencap crazy it sounded like.

...

FB's tomorrow.

I'll be visiting the USS Torsk at somepoint in the next 14 days. Expect more dank meme photos.

...

I've heard bong BBs are pretty good

That's adorable.

Good night /sog/

>no range to shoot from afar
>no speed to get up close
>if you get up close, you have no speed to escape
>IJN penetration with Kraut damage

Hmm, yeah.

...

You won though right?

I thought it stopped making 3v5s, only 3v4s at worst. Apparently the fix fixed that :^)

Nelson is good desu family.

Poi~
