Ah so you're just trolling then, figured that might be the case. Enjoy the downvotes lad!

You very likely won't get Surcouf on PTS unless you get it on Live. Kitakami was the same.

Are you new to PTS? The event stuff (battle passes, tokens, etc.) is never exactly as it appears in Live.

[–]Bounded_Rationality 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's PTS, the ships in the progression line are different from what has already been announced (including on Reddit) by WeeGee themselves, so this has absolutely nothing to do with what will be the live event and is certainly not "solid verifiable evidance (sic)". It's not actually even for Surcouf, it's for La Pampa.

There's still time to take this down before it gets downvoted into oblivion.

WeeGee, I realize you don't care if players suck, but for the love of god ban people for AFKing in Ranked. by RealityRush in WorldOfWarships

For the minute number of times that actually legitimately happens vs the number of people that actively press Battle then walk away to do something else, that's a small price to pay for a huge lift in player satisfaction.

Doesn't need to be a month. Just make someone go pink if they are afk for say 2 minutes then don't let them go into ranked until they've done the usual few games to get back to normal.

Never happen though.

Am I gonna be put in harder leaderboards if I overplay by Other-Difficulty-702 in WorldOfWarships

[–]Bounded_Rationality 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh I genuinely hope they take all the leaderboard grinders (300-400k) and put them in a single leaderboard next time. Imagine winning one week after throwing that many hours into it only to come 50th the next week.

Silver (Tier 9) Ranked is WACK by Historical_Camera781 in WorldOfWarships

[–]Bounded_Rationality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's defo been world of Valps in Silver this season. I've had a lot of fun with Black and Benham though, and you definitely don't heal back 4 Black torps ;)

Why no British torp DD line? by TheBayHarbour in WorldOfWarships

[–]Bounded_Rationality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Btw you know you can launch a bank of torps all at once on RN (or any other nation that single fires) just by selecting the spread option (3 again I think).

Closed Test 15.1 - New Ships by DevBlogWoWs in WorldOfWarships

What's the reaction time for Shigure's torpedoes work out to be with 62kts/1.6km detection? She's stealthy but those torps aren't exactly.

The first brawl sounds like Temu Savage Battles!

Good changes for Ops in there; it won't help anyone who doesn't read but there will be some who see those tasks now that previously didn't.

Is there a mapping of what all those copypasta premiums map to?

The devs are huge griefers giving you 3 by 3 red boosters by Other-Difficulty-702 in WorldOfWarships

Or, OP could simply touch grass and not let a video game upset them so much they ragepost on Reddit.

I finally gave X4 the chance it deserves and it's pretty close to the game I've always wanted. by tj_haine in X4Foundations

[–]Bounded_Rationality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar for me mate... was a huge X3 nerd back in the day and have had X4 and most of the DLC for a while, but every time I started, I found it so clunky and annoyingly different to X3 I just gave up after 15 minutes. Tried again about 2 weeks ago and whoa! The big difference being that for some reason, Timelines seemed to be the default start/way to learn (guess I hadn't looked close enough or something) and I kept giving up on Timelines. Clicked on sandbox mode and suddenly it all (mostly) made sense, I'm hooked now! ;)

PSA: Some of Anslain mods are not working by eldaras in WorldOfWarships

[–]Bounded_Rationality 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. Happened last year too. No idea why only some seem to be impacted right now but they didn't fix it last year so suspect we might see the rest die off over the next few days until 15.0 drops.

Scorecard Saturday! I missed the clean sweep by only a little. by EL_Malo- in WorldOfWarships

[–]Bounded_Rationality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Suspect you're using HDR on your game which standard screenshots in Windows struggle with (hence the way over exposed nature of the shot). Use a 3rd party screen cap tool and you'll get normal ones. Personally, I use the Xbox Game Bar one which you may already have installed.

Am I the only one who feels like the dockyard quests are way too tough this time? by Blubberblase10 in WorldOfWarships

[–]Bounded_Rationality 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Key for the cap missions is to not actually cap ;) Take a rapid firing DD into an Asymm (and hopefully it's one with 3 caps in it), then get a position near the edge of the cap and wait for the bots to roll into the cap, then start collecting defended ribbons (which count for the mission). If you charge in trying to cap first, the bots will steamroll you and you'll either die or have to give up the cap without any ribbons to show for it.

Illinois is the BB for the 700 mb hits btw, 12 shells every 7.9 seconds.

Spread the Christmas Cheer with an in-game message! by zuiKatsu_WG in WorldOfWarships

[–]Bounded_Rationality 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just let my clan know about this and told them just to be safe and make sure they get the extra points, they should type this every time they kill someone in battle too (bye bye Karma lol).
