We have stated this A LOT throughout the forums.

We have a lot of projects we are working, specific to historic commanders, that we would like to put in World of Warships. The issue specifically is, it's not as easy as some say it is to "just put them in the game," there are A LOT of legal considerations that have to be taken into account.

Specifically if a person has passed away, we have to attempt to get ahold of their estate or a representative. If we do not get responses, that is a hard stop for us. I cannot discuss specifically which commanders we are working to put into the game but almost ALL of them have been suggested in the forums at some point.

So firstly, this is the first time I have heard about this.

Secondly thank you for bringing this up, I am actually writing reports today and will put this into that report.

Also I have moved this to our Bug report/Support section so we make sure we have better visibility of it.

The introduction of Leroy Jenkins to World of Warships is purely to honor him as a veteran specifically. Along with our Legendary commanders we have a lot of special commanders that have no special skills in the armory. Along with celebrating the USS Kidds 78th birthday the release of Leroy Jenkins to World of Warships on this date we feel is an amazing way to honor the time that he served and we do not believe that he needs to have any special perks in the game for this reason. And we further honor him by not requiring the use of in-game or out of game currency to make him part of your ships crews.

We have no intention to shut the stream down.

Yeah, this is why I asked, because I am not able to duplicate this and I need more information.

Leroy Jenkins was enlisted and served only in the enlisted ranks, but as @Ensign_Cthulhu brought up and as is true for any person that "Commands" a vessel. He will be called Captain or Commander. His images is based off the likeness we received from him and his family. And we wanted to keep his image historically on par with the uniform that he would have worn.

Or someone made a mistake in writing the article and it has been corrected.

Please stop spinning things for what they are not.

There are two mission sets going live tomorrow.

One mission set is for Random and Ranked and requires the USS Kidd and will drop a 10 pt Leroy Jenkins.

The other set is for Coop, Random, Ranked and PvE in tier V-X US ships and will drop a 6 pt Leroy Jenkins.

You can earn him off both missions, which means you can get two Leroy Jenkins commanders. We are currently editing the article to reflect this.

She will be available on the 23rd, as you stated earlier, as per the patch notes. We are editing the text of the article right now.

So my question would be, what time of day were these battles? How many other players were in queue? I understand you have been tracking the battles you played but if there are very few people in queue MM will still have a problem matching players onto a team. The same rules apply as in Random battle MM, the MM will attempt to build teams that are more at tier than not and this makes it difficult for MM when there are less players on.

Also, I never said I wasn't looking into this, I was just offering a possible explanation of why this might occur. I have asked our devs to see if anything was changed, however, it is very possible what I said above is true.

Along with the 10 coop battles yesterday, I have already dropped 3 this morning with different tiers and all were full of players.

-Hapa

Folks,

If the queue is low for players in Coop, then you are going to have battles with less and less players and more bots, this is not something new. Furthermore, you can still have queue dumps, even in coop if MM is trying to make a full team, but there is not enough to make a full team.

I just ran 10 coop battles, all of them except 1 were full of players. The 1 that was not had 8 players and 1 bot and that was early today (which means the server pop was lower than normal).

-Hapa

Please read over the OP thread of this, run a WGCheck, with "Extended Network Diagnostic" selected and submit the WGCheck report in a CS report. We can help diagnose this problem.

Also do you run mods? If you do, pull them off and launch the vanilla client and see if that fixes the problem.

-Hapa

Yes we respond to A LOT of posts on the forums actually

-Hapa

I don't know about it either, but I am literally right now, writing reports on the patch and I will 100% include this if its in there.
