The Thread is about Ranked?

As for Clan Battles with CVs, none of the Hurricane playing teams were deathballed. They broke into two groups and played main-force & off-force (Contested/Off-side). If you're not referring to deathballing (all the ships being in a clump), can you explain what you're referring to?

CVs alter the way Clan Battles are played on a fundamental level. Ship-choice is altered due to AA and Spotting constraints. Also, deployments are scouted so there is more of a strategy based on grind/attrition as opposed to novelty and/or surprise. As such, you can expect to see Seasons with CVs and Seasons without CVs because of how the gameplay is altered with the addition/subtraction of a Ship Type.

We have stated CVs will return to Clan Battles, but we've kept them out so players can have other experiences as we tried out the Unique-ship restriction which was very popular and we're going to be see what...

We don't have any announcements on her. Research Bureau points aren't easy to come by, so I'm not sure what to recommend on that front.

Camos you currently have will be converted into a Perma-Visual and a Perma-Economic Bonus. If the Camo is for a specific ship, they will be for that specific ship. If the Camo is unattached and could be applied to a ship of your choice, the Perma-Visual and Perma-Economic Bonus will stay unattached until you apply them to a ship of your choice.

Our Permacamos for Tier 10 are currently valued at 5,000 Doubloons. You could have three different camos for a single ship, and each is valued at 5,000+ Doubloons.

While yes, the future version will have a single Perma-Economic Bonus which covers any/all Camos used, we still believe our Camos retain value. The Perma-Visuals after the first one acquired for a ship would not be discounted.

There are actually many ways to poll the general Wows-playing population, and we frequently do!

Sorry, but I have to correct you here.

It's literally the CM's job to write a report every single week on sentiment regarding a wide variety of topics including specific issues brought up, questions we see frequently, and general sentiment. That joins a larger report that makes its way up.

The Forum is not the only medium through which we get feedback, so keep that in mind. There is Discord, Twitch, Social Media, Supertest, Clan Supertest, Privateers, Community Contributors, and even the Wiki Editors. When an issue shows up across multiple feedback sources, we know it's pervasive. If one person tells me in the forums that the Ohio is objectively worse than the Montana because 12 barrels is clearly better than 8, then that feedback won't likely go anywhere meaningful. When folks come into the forums and let us know that the survey regarding insurance questions really upset them - we notice.

I would be very surprised if ...

@Edward_Liu

The first Perma-Visual and Perma-Economic Bonus will be discounted. The current full price will be broken up between them (for the first acquisition).

Current: 5,000 Doubloons for a Tier 10 Permacamo



Future: 4,800 Doubloons for a Tier 10 Perma-Econ Bonus


Future: 200 Doubloons for a Tier 10 Perma-Visual

This choice is for each ship.

There is an option which allows the clan to redeem a large amount of Oil as Containers for clanmates. Also, it's fun to have a challenge bar to push for during the weekend.

Moderation occurs when forum rules are violated. If you have reason to believe that is not the case then please write a ticket to CS explaining the situation and they will have a look at it.

Hi there,

Even a superficial look around will prove that there is plenty of criticism, constructive and not, leveled our way that is in no way censored or obstructed and always has been.

We moderate based on our forum guidelines, as one would and should expect.

This is a queue dump that happens infrequently. Notice how one side has fewer T10’s than the other?

This is the exception - not the rule.

I sad to hear that :\

If someone is being obnoxious to you in chat, please make a Customer Support Ticket and send the Replay. If they're treating you badly, they're treating others badly too :\

You might be having a problem with the Flak Walling that happens when Flak gets to high levels. You can attenuate that to a degree by turning during your attack run.

This video can help you understand how to avoid Flak.

Ships are balanced for Random Battles as that is the primary game-mode for World of Warships. That being said, it's very uncommon for a CV Driver to find themselves fighting against 11 enemy ships. Flanks usually break teams into halves and then ships tend to disperse out into sub-groups of 2 or 3 ships. In terms of 6v6 Ranked, CVs will typically interact with 2-3 ship Sub-Groups, so the AA interactions are actually fairly similar.

There is another aspect of Ranked play which impacts how a CV is played. CV strikes are quite accurate often because of teammates threatening gun-fire angles and "pinning" hostile ships to certain positions/angles. When the Ranked format has less teammates, that can result in more movement options for enemy ships which can reduce damage impact/influence.

I watched your match and my biggest question is: "How do you see that match playing differently if there was no CV?"

The constant triple BB threat in Ranked makes aggressive positioning in a Cruiser rather tough. Your southern line push stalled out as you'd have to charge 3 (later 2) Battleships, which is after the CV completely abandoned interacting with you. What would you have liked to see in the match that you felt was not present?
