****** Official World of Warships Thread ******

Can someone just give me a quick idiots guide to the tech tree.

The credits you earn are to buy things and you can spend them on anything but the ship xp can only be used to research the next ship in the tree? Is that right.

That is correct.

xp (and free xp once you've unlocked it) is used to research new modules and ships and credits are used to purchase ships (except for premium ships), modules and other consumables.
 
4 games tonight - mad lag spikes. This sums it up best though.....

Reminded me of world of tanks, my team sucked so hard....

More XP than the best player on the winning side as well !
 
Well I've just discovered that the Japanese destroyers really take a nosedive after Tier 6 - they are awful.

Depends how you are using them. They are purely torpedo based and you shouldn't be using your cannons at all. You should also be rigging them for fast suprise attacks and ranged undetected torpedo drops.

I am doing that as I have been for the whole tier but they are just nowhere near as good as the tier 5 and 6 ships. You lose the concealability that enables you to get to a decent range so you have to release torps earlier and then they have to time to dodge. I much prefer and think the far stronger ship is the tier 5 one when you can just get in their face with the 7km torp variant.
 
Must admit I am starting to like the Destroyers. Even though I am still on T2 they are pretty fast. Other players still continue in a straight line even though torpedoes are aimed at them.
 
just had a couple of games since the open beta, really enjoying it still, just a sad panda that ive got to unlock my BB's again!

Oh well gives me an excuse to do nothing else all day!

Or you can set yourself up in a location where idiots drive through without noticing what is around them and wreck them from close range when they drive by (this tactic does work on specific maps where big stupid battleships and idiots driving cruisers who tunnel vision on what they're aiming at go through narrows where you can set up an ambush and give them a really bad day with a large loss of health or a destroyed ship).

Also isn't tier 6 on the Japanese destroyer line around the place where the guns stop being crap (according to a certain famous youtuber).
 
A couple of my best games over the last few days, both in destroyers. Dropped a 5 bomb with a Clemson, god knows how. I torped the carrier which killed me just as his secondaries finished me off. i was on 210hp for most of the game

For crying out loud..... I was through on their 2 carriers and their cruiser started to cap.

Did our carrier send planes to de-cap or fly them across the whole map to try and sink a carrier ? Guess.

Did our camping Wyoming react or just sail behind an island ? Guess.

One of my most painful losses. 5 kills over 100k damage and a flipping loss.

Looks like you get stuck with the same retards I get. :D

Quite the toxic community in chat aren't they.

My first week in World of Warships has taught me:

1) First person to die cries "noob team".
2) Kill more than 3 get called out for using "aimbot"
3) If everyone says "B and C" a lone cruiser or battleship will go to "A" then do their best Penelope Pitstop impression in team chat and then moan at everyone when they die for the lack of support.

Just like World of Tanks then :p
 
just like pretty much every online game then ;)

Is the chat in every online game as toxic as it is in WoT.

Most of the games I've had in WoWS seem to be populated by the same idiots I've seen in WoT since they fire their guns at nothing in particular (some times, I felt like going into chat and state that firing your guns makes you easier to spot even if you're out of detection range) and seem to go off in whatever direction they want.
 
Chances are they will be first to die as they blunder along firing in the air like they are in a western, just sail in the other direction. I find that the idiots in wows/wot are no different to those I encountered in bf, cod, wow etc...

I try and just ignore them and just have fun, but at times it is mighty trying.
 
Just watching some moron in a Fuso reversing 6km back towards out carrier just so they stay at maximum range, never mind that we need to kill some ships to make up a points deficit, wouldn't want to scratch the paint on your ship would we...

Yup, every free to play game ever has them
