World of Warships Enters Open Beta!

Ok. Um... Wow...

I installed WoW on my recently purchased Late 2016 Mac Book Pro 15.4. And it runs... GREAT!

Mostly 50fps or better, with just a few stutters with something big nearby blows up. Like my own ship :)

I"m impressed. Even though this is a fairly decked out $2800 version of the MBP, I was not expecting it to be any where near this good.

My HP Sceptre X360 has similar hardware internally, but only has Intel graphics and it's barely playable. I guess even the mid-range Radeon card in the MBP makes a big difference.

And moving the aim around with your finger and pressing down to fire is really quite intuitive and easy to do. This is the first trackpad I've ever felt was worth a shit.
 
Hell yea, new top damage record!

I lost one karma from this game, so I did good George.

That's pretty cool, I don't particularly like Apples business practices but their hardware is always really slick. I hear their trackpads are second to none. I wish WG would port these games to Linux as well, wildly popular f2p games could really help speed up adoption and get people moving away from Microsoft.
 
The new multi-level (or whatever it's called) trackpads from Apple are awesome. I just with the external would work with PC's :(

What, no 0.6.4 comments ?

No comments on the Duke of Guns ?

It really has slowed to a crawl in here.

Hey, there's even a reason to play the TurdPutz again !
 
There was never a reason to not play it. It's always been a relevant ship.

Until the Bizmark came along and stole all it's thunder. The new secondary buff changes all that.

I don't know what to think of the Duca. It's fast, it handles like crazy, but it's a fucking floating citadel with a prop. Way worse than the Molotov. Even angled it blows up good.

I was tired as all fuck when I did the narration but if you want to see some seriously meaty hits:


I could have stopped after the intro, I knew it was all downhill from there. :)

Good to have you back.

I just snuck in two games... I swear Gearings are the worst players, anyone want to guess who whiffed with his torps (I was radar spotted for 15 seconds... and he was in smoke) and ended up getting murdered by IJN AP? Balti, Gearing vs. Akizuki...right after I did 34k to a Chappy in B.

I got top XP in a T10.

Alright - How do I get into OPG or one of the sub clans? I don't do skirmishes due to having a wife and kids so I don't particularly care which one. I know a few OPG guys are on during the day.

My current clan had a lot of people on during the day at one point but that's died off.
 
We do have an OPGS - the S is for social- that doesn't require you to be in skirms. Going to be joining that myself here soon, since my new job completely changed my schedule.

you can't join OPGS anymore unless you're already an OPG member, fyi. so in the case of dayaks you'd have to join either opg 1/2/3 go through the stupid trial period which means going to scrims at least 3 times a week that's suppose to take 1 month but ends up taking 6 months because no one pays attention to any of that shit and then you can join OPGS. to be honest though outside of just having access to their ryver chat there's really no point in being in OPGS which you can pretty much do just staying where you're at chibe since they don't pay attention to it. i sat in OPG2 for almost 3 months without playing a single game or scrim. though i'm sure they finally removed me after a certain some one within our own fight night team decided they'd try to talk shit behind my back after i quit playing the game.

I go to scrims once a week, I think the req now is 8 events a month.
 
What is OPG. What are SCRIMS. I feel like I've crawled out from under a rock.

Well that's really friggin weird. What happened to "we're just here to have fun" mentality? I'll just puts around solo. Easier to not play too much solo anyways.

OPG "Over Powered Gaming" is a clan that a lot of people here are in. There's different tiers each requiring a certain level of play. Basically if you see someone with an OPG tag they are at least competent. At one time I was in the social clan (OPGS) but didn't bother to formalize it when WG opened up clans.

Scrims are skirmishes. It's 7v7 battles that OPG hosts. Aka "competitive". Unfortunately for me it's during the nighttime when I can't play.

OPG is suppose to be a competitive clan by that definition OPGS shouldn't even exist but they let it since it keeps good players from going to other clans. if you were already in OPGS just ask swagger if you're still on the OPGS roster, if you are just apply to OPGS in game.

Roger, I'll give it a shot.
 
There has to be a place where you can go and find a clan that fits your needs/style/etc...

Like "ONF". Old Navy Farts clan. Maybe I'll start that one LOL

I would just join one you see a lot during your play time.

ONF might not be a bad idea.
 
I know I dont currently (and probably never will) qualify for OPG

there's a ton of good clans out there, just have to look around. but honestly i'd wait until they actually bother to implement clan wars into the game because right now it's just a shit fest of players reporting members of the bigger clans for absolutely no reason. i originally thought it was just OPG members but talked to a lot of the other clans and it's happening to them as well.
 
Dooods !

I am about to make your lives SO much easier :)

I know a lot of people use windows snipping tool to snip stuff. Or use WoWs print screen to grab stuff. But you have to dump it into paint and make your crops and whatever. It's a pain in the ass.

Go here:

https://mix.office.com/Snip

Install this:

Microsoft Snip

First, it does multiple snips at once, and stores them in a library for you to recall at will.

Secondly, and I have no idea how it does this, it fucking works when 3D programs are onscreen!

Yes, you can be anywhere in WoWs, hit print screen, and the snipper will show up and you can immediately capture only what you want and store it in the library.

It will switch to the desktop snip app after a snip, so be ready for that.

Enjoy! Send me bitcoins.

What's wrong with just taking a ss with print screen?
 
Because you still have to edit it afterward to crop out only what you want. You can do that right from the get go with this snipper.

Trust me. It's better :)

There is nothing I crop out :p Not sure if I want the game to stop and alt tab to the snipping tool while i'm in the middle of a battle .
 
IT loads my work computer with something like that. If you take screen shots during the game you definitely don't want it.

I am still on my Atlanta kick... 6-7k AP salvos into a Colorado. It's tough to stop playing it.
 
I'm no good at bouncing bullets off the fucking atmosphere so I don't run it a lot.

The thing I remember most about the Atlanta is I bought it right at launch when it wasn't cool to "Pay the monster for content" And as soon as you spawned you saw "pay to win ! Pay to win!. Kill it! Kill it!" And you were focused and dead in 2 minutes. Sometimes by your own team !
 
Anyone gonna test 0.6.5 ? It looks pretty meh to me.
So when I have a clear line of sight on an enemy, no friendlies in front of me and I fire my torpedos and then some jackass comes from the side and goes RIGHT in front of their path it's my fault?

I've shot torps with no one around, WARNED everyone in chat I fired, and had a clown turn around and run right into them like he did it on purpose and commenced to be chastised in Chat by them.

So.... fuck it. Be dilgent, do your best, and wear your yellow proudly when it happens. The yellow system has long been made useless by WG with all the dumb changes so no one pays attention any more anyway.
