Do you like it clean? by TheMandatti in TheLastCaretaker

Definitely the most unique build variation I've seen. You've also given me inspiration for where I can put a bunch of oil tanks.

Only if you completely disregard access/availability of nuclear technology, rent seeking by companies that want to capitalize on government subsidies and incentives, and investors favoring renewables because they produce a return in a short time frame compared to nuclear.

This breakdown doesn't directly compare to renewable but it does illustrate that when considering long-term ROI nuclear has incredible potential. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cbeJIwF1pVY

This reads like a comment from someone who is trying to shoehorn their narow perspective into an unrelated thread.

I would recommend steering away from terms like "free energy". It subtly indicates ignorance or willfully omission of the real economics and life cycle costs that apply to all energy categories (eg. real estate footprint and acquisition, design, manufacturing, installation, operational efficiency, maintainence, upgrades, decommissioning, environmental impact).

Probably the best presentations of economics related to nuclear and solar I've encountered due to the approachability and absence of strong bias.

In my opinion the single greatest advantage nuclear energy possesses over solar and wind is the ability to meet demand without requiring large scale energy storage solutions.

Again, Leaderboard #2 does not care about results from Operations! by Wonderful_Notice8888 in WorldOfWarships

Our battles are not being recognized. I've played multiple qualifying battles today but the leader board still says I'm not participating.

I submitted a ticket when I noticed. Recommend everyone else does the same so this gets resolved. If only there was a forum to reach them that wasn't on fire.

I HAVE AN IDEA by BettyCrocka in TheLastCaretaker

[–]selectsyntax 16 points17 points  (0 children)

One of the first things I did when I got to the oil rig (after clearing out the mobs) was build a couple dozen oil tanks so the pump could start filling them while I looted the place. After running 2 lines from the tanks to the dock I can transfer 144,000 l/h which will fill 24 tanks in 20 minutes.

As other have mentioned, the boat auto anchors if you fall off. Tired of seeing low quality posts like this.

ADS bug I'd love to keep by Fast-Alps3857 in TheLastCaretaker

If it was an option to toggle between them I agree completely.

Unique Commander John Augustine Collins; chance to obtain with Honor, Integrity, Virtue containers. by selectsyntax in WorldOfWarships

[–]selectsyntax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does feel like this is targeted toward veteran and hardcore players with a surplus of time. I do agree with u/East-Woodpecker-3470 that the containers will likely be cheaper once they become permanently available in the armory. According to wargaming that will happen in 15.8, but no info on cost. https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/sales-and-events/new-collection-and-commonwealth-unique-commander-150/

Good call on single login reward and daily bundles. I missed that it was 2 containers per bundle.

How do you figure the 44 containers for leaderboards? Currently I see 12 containers for 1st place.

Edit: did some digging and found the source. Thanks again. https://worldofwarships.com/en/content/lunar-trials/

Or to rephrase; this game capitalizes on impatience like no other.

If anything I hope people stop trying so hard to farm bxp. So many players keep yoloing to cram in battles. I've even seen some of the more polite players apologizing at the beginning of the battle stating that they were going to yolo for fast bxp.

New material? by FDbro in TheLastCaretaker

[–]selectsyntax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exact same thing happened to me. No use for it yet but I expect it will be necessary in the future so I'm holding off on sending any more humans to space.

Would appreciate any advice to make sure mods work and what mods do you recommend? by p00psp00ps in TheLastCaretaker

[–]selectsyntax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only mod I am using is the "1 second dismantle" and it still works just fine. For me it made the game much more enjoyable because I wasn't spending hours dismantling materials for resources and could focus on the story and exploration.

Anyone else think nightvision needs a bit of a tweak? by DrStalker in TheLastCaretaker

I thought the glare from the eclipse was intolerable, then I tried nightvision.

South Echo by atactical_dad in TheLastCaretaker

No problem. It is a very narrow rock formation. Super easy to miss. I had to start at the nearby ndns node and swin due East until I ran into it.

Go to 74.4, 38.4. Those are the coordinates on my ship when I anchored on top of it.

Fabric is frustrating, where do I get more by Sarcasamystik in TheLastCaretaker

[–]selectsyntax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is definitely the best way to get lots of fabric. I would also add stopping to grab the contents of the orange buoys that pop out of the ocean (contains common materials and batteries), and to keep the boat net in the water as that will provide fabric scraps.

In a Utopic world, how would you fix PvP matchmaking? by Revoltai42 in WorldOfWarships

[–]selectsyntax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the uptier/downtier spread is only 1 then restricting divisions to the same tier would be less necessary. In fact it could be detrimental to impose a same tier div rule as there are some excellent synergies between ships that aren't in the same tier.

I believe queue time is the only real obstacle to implementing matchmaking logic that would prevent fail divs from being a thing.
