>Benis shitposting from another server

is it possible, or did this guy just run out of flags and didn't notice?

What the flying fuck, why would you install that mod

Not me, I don't play skycancer

the flag increasing flood chance + chance for det overrides any flag decreasing chance for detonation

that's what you get for even using magazine mod 1

good to know, I didn't have any of these mounted though

That's right, you're not a filthy rerolling scumbag trying to prove something like Mako and StayMad.

But under the /wowsg/-approved definition of reroll, I am a reroll because I have:

>5 co-op and 2 random battles on RU server
>3 co-op and 1 random battle on EU server
>3 co-op and 2 random battles on NA server
>227 battles in CBT
>unknown number of battles in alpha
>unknown number of battles on non-production servers

a reroll is somebody with two accounts on the same server or a new account on a different server with a high tier ship. this is the general consensus most clans follow in WoT, who cares about WoWs.

RIP

Great, now we can pick a better name.

If this is Hotel/Khan, just want to let you know that I found out from an EU friend that you don't have to re-download two game clients for different regions to get clans working, you just have to modify the engine_config.xml within the \World_of_Warships\res\ directory. Changing the currentRealm value with the specific two letter server code allows you to use the clan functions for that server; the rest is managed by Im_The_Seeker's region switcher mod (which is essentially just a scripts_config.xml tweak).

Two letter codes:
na = NA server
eu = EU server
sg = SEA server (internally known as "Singapore")
ru = Russian server

No dying!

>canadians on NA

let it die user ;_;

What does he mean by this?

Well that's a hell of a lot easier than what I was trying to do, thanks.

Seems like some Jojo Stand shit.

I'm fucking bad @ ships but this is just easy mode. No wonder the meta went to shit after they were introduced.

>5 cits in 54 shots.
You were just lucky as fuck and your enemies dumb as fuck.

The Iowa and Yugumo must've been clinically retarded.

qt bote

That's nothing, I have another screenshot from a battle where I hit 34 times for 6 cits.

I honestly find it citadels things better than Iowa or Hotel and enemies quite often have to do dumb shit like turn away from you mid fight or they're gonna eat torpedoes.

Wouldn't that be in 59 shots?

What the fuck are you talking about you shitter? 54 target hits and 5 citadel hits is easy mode.

Git gud, Gneis is wunderbar.

qt rapist

The meme started by Ike lives on to this day.

Why is she a rapist, anyway? And why is the comic with Hosho so edgy?

The rapist thing comes from the chink comic with Hosho, but it fits well with how she rapes lower tiers in game. The author is just an edgy fuck, seemingly.

What do I gain from clans?

A nice little clan tag on your name.
Another chat.

evenetually, there may be things like clan wars

maybe there will be rewards and campaigns, like in WoT

Congrats on losing your kraken virginity

If you want to be pedantic, actually calling her a rapist was started by some random user in the thread.

Well, thanks.

It's not like it took long to find the thread in the archive.

As much as /wowsg/ has changed over the past year, one thing hasn't changed.

Fuck CVs. What a waste of credits.

french boats in this game ??

Has anything changed in the last 3 months to make the game worth playing again ?

Wiki says otherwise. I ran Juliet Charlie with the +det signals during Ranked and I never detonated.

For all intents and purposes, and on pretty much every level, they're pretty much the same.

>both are sunk

Truly, the similarities don't end there.

You either sink as a warship or live long enough to see yourself become old, rusted and decrepit as a museum.

It's Friday, /wowsg/
So that means drinking, and what's better than boats and alcohol mixing into a very fun time!

>you'll never go on an adventure with Hotel
;_;

Kaga poster > Hotel poster

Yamato is a shit boat, if it was never built and the resources had instead been used for aircraft carriers the IJN might have actually not lost as badly.

face it, Yamato is shit, the Yamato Class is shit, and everyone who served on Yamato is dead

But then Japan wouldn't have any planes or pilots for those new aircraft carriers :^)

honestly I run AFT+MAA on my high tier BB's just as a contingency fuck you to that unexpected CV's

I feel so defenseless whenever I'm playing with the Yuugumo

What's worse is that they turned the 3rd hull into a CV and it was sunk about 5 minutes after leaving port by 1 torpedo.

That makes no sense since MAA is genuinely stupid. It only effects high calibre AA guns and on most boats its the mediums (40mm for excample) that do most of the AA damage. AFT for sure, but MAA is a waste of points.

Have you tried shooting back at enemies?

Newfag here, question for ya. What's the fucking secret to using AP ammunition. I'll get fucked by it all the time but when I try to use it it seems to do little or even no damage at all despite the game registering it as a hit. Occasionally I can chunk someone for 2000-3000 damage but those seem rather few and far between.

Ship I'm using is the Phoenix, if that's related. I'm only asking because I was doing great playing the St. Louis but now it seems I can hardly last 5 minutes into a match before getting my shit pushed in by an AP salvo wiping out half my health in one go.

maybe they should have tried training their pilots to drop bombs and fire their machine guns instead of training them to be bombs

I did but it barely does any damage.
I miss the Fubuki..

stopped working when you realized it takes time and resources to train pilots and develop better aircraft. Thinks of which you don't have.

Can I get Takao from 10 to 15 points until february only by getting my daily?How important is CE in ranked?

No more ammo for their plane machine guns :^)

Seriously they had like 3 variants of 7.7mm and none of them were compatible with each other.

And did they even have any more metal for bombs at the end of the war?

But then we wouldn't have the unique Squadron type WG is going to give the IJN Carriers :^)

>MAA is stupid

A NC for example with AA mod 2, AFT, BFT, and MAA does fucking 332 DPS at the outer ring of 7.2km when you ctrl click on a squadron and thats before they come into the mid and inner rings of your AA.

And at the other end of the fucking spectrum with something that isn't so strong in AA

A Yamato with BFT, AFT, MAA and AA flag does 292 DPS at 6km when you ctrl click a squadron before he reaches the inner ring

Making your outer ring AA match your mid to close rings of AA is a pretty big fucking deal when it comes to thinning potential strikes

The rest of their navy wasn't much better tbqh.

? How is this not a good option on dd's and RN Cruisers ?

Shoot broadsides. Works better in BBs or CAs. You're in a CL, so you need to wiggle your ass and dodge shots rather than rely on armor. The USN line turns into CAs at tier 7 and the IJN line at tier 5

>Shipsmas Bundles
So I havent been paying attention. Are the actual ships themselves on sale? Or is it another one of these episodes where WG discounts a bunch of shit nobody buys for real money then tacks it onto a premium bote and calls it a """"""""""""""""""""""""""discount""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""?

One of them is ~$400 for every premium ship plus one unique one.

Well that's... quite something. Gonna have to set aside a few hours for that I guess.

Yeah I'm starting too see already in the video I picked out on a whim that I really shouldn't even be using AP rounds on a light cruiser except situationally. I'm enjoying this though, it's a very different kind of game than what I usually play and learning it is pretty engaging.

>Ship I'm using is the Phoenix
Realize you outrange most t3 and some t4.
See what other Phoenixes do to be succesful.

This was a good battle, but I cheated a Tenryu on the other team out of getting a kraken. I feel so bad ;_;

In cruisers, especially low tier cruisers, AP is largely for punishing other cruisers that go broadside to you at close (maybe

the armor modeler ingame is handy too if you want to know where not to get hit

>on the other team
>I feel so bad
>on the OTHER team

There is such a thing as respecting a skilled opponent. 4 kills with a Tenryu in a T4 game is no easy feat, and he outscored the rest of his team by a mile, so I doubt he was just securing kills.
