Hey SeaLord! I Remember I played against you in the Rhode Island a while back while playing the Big Whiskey, I was watching your stream while playing and found it funny how we both got the same map, Tears of the Dessert, its only then I realized that it wasnt just the same map, MM put us in the same match, I even had the honor of being sunk by you! Always love your content man, Hope to get the Rhode Island

@sirbowserfelix9293Ай бұрын
LOL, if I was a millionaire I would just create a whole new WoWs and WT competitor game. Though I see the point in why people might get angry for their price, they're not cheap indeed, fortunately I can give myself the little luxury of buying the things I want every now and then, even when thhey don't make financial sense. You see, I don't play for the meta or anything like that, I just play for the fun and I do like wonky ships with weird mechanics and ships with historical relevance, so both are on my radar for a while now. Though unfortunately I don't have a way to play and as much as I want anymore, so I often miss shipyard ships and steel ships, I don't think buying 2 not so cheap ships for a game I enjoy will make me a literal devil for not buying shoes for people instead. I don't want to sound rude, but I think that's the internet, hahahahaha. As for Maine and Bourgone, I need to try those later, always see good things about those ships and Bourgone is one I see often when playing, so it might be quite good indeed.

With my RI, I find the range game and using speed as well as stealth is the best way to go. Trying to do much of anything else, you will just get eaten alive. It functions well as a heavy cruiser and playing support for the beefier BBs.

Rhode Island is out in the armory! 49.9k doubloons though ($200 USD). I just cannot do that for the ship, was hoping they would have a ship only option like they normally do. This time it is bundle only! Side note: they show their 49.9k doubloons as a discounted price from 62.2k doubloons, but that is not actually a payable price at any point. They are using full value of the bundle items to get that value. Bundles suck unless you truly wanted everything in them. Sad they do not have a ship only option.

I am an experienced player, so this is a veteran perspective. However, Rhodes Island is one of the best battleships in the game, I don't know why but she fits into your hands and you just play the game without major sweat. Despite having issues with 25-mm stern I was on top of the scoreboard. I can compare her with Tirpitz.

Sea Lord, how can I contact WOW. I have an idea for a modification of their program that would allow newer players to compete on a more fair-to-their level than they now have to deal with when they are in higher level tiers. This idea will not benefit you ultra high level operators as it would eliminate your thrill to kill lesser players who have hammered their way to a level 10 ship before their time. WOW should love it as they could allow an avenue for newer players to play at level 9, 10 and S(spending their $s along the way), without being killed by you older players who greatly outweigh their abilities sporting multiple Captains at skill level 21. Okay, so that may not sound so good to you high end dudes, but it would give you upper level players a chance to see new talent develop to destroy them at some point. My guess is that all of you upper level players know each other. What would happen if you didn't know each other? The game could become better for even you, the high end players. And my idea is very very simple. This idea could recreate a new interest in WOW. How do I send an idea to WOW?

I used to think that too, but then realized Ship XP is the base value that is carried into both Free XP and Elite Captain XP. So if you increase the base value (ship XP) and run boosters on the others + Premium Ship baked in boosts, you get a ton of Captain and Free XP. I only run boosters on premiums now. Accelerated elite captain progress exponentially.
@alphax4785Ай бұрын
@@xPureNRG007x Putting a booster into ship XP does NOT boost the other XP types as the system currently is and has been for awhile now. It used to when economic bonuses were tied to camouflages and flags, but they moved to the current system specifically to de link those bonuses for better and worse. The only reasons to use ship XP boosters on premium ships are to reach your daily crates faster, to reach potential dockyard / combat mission ship XP requirements faster or you're desperate for Free XP and willing to pay the hideously bad conversion rate of 25:1 'elite' ship XP to FXP.
