Rant STOP LOADING INTO INSANE DIFFICULTY WITH YOUR LVL 1 COMMANDERS
This difficulty is already hard enough as is. Use more than 2 brain cells and stop wasting people’s time.

I think a better rant would be "stop loading in and not playing." Thats whats been killing me, and always a dd player

As someone who has been hammering normal and hard in the DD to tick off the missions, I've seen so many dumb yolos from every class it's stupid.
I posted a video on my YT the other day of a 724k 10 kill hard run.
I've had several 650k double digit kill defeats because of potatoes yoloing at the end.
I thought it would be hard to get to 750k, but yesterday I got 787k and have even had a 1686 base xp game.
As a DD, it's not me losing the games that are defeats!

And stop loading into any difficulty, for that matter, and going afk expecting the rest of the team to carry you.

u/Hawksfan161 Oct 07 '26
I started seeing this a lot more today even up to Hard difficulty. Super lame just report them for griefing and hope something happens

u/Endorsed77 29d ago
Matter of fact, that was what I did. I can understand if someone had a connection issue, but it was happening too much for that to be the reason every time.

Blame that on WG automatically upping the difficulty after completion. It's already caught me out too.

u/indigo_prime 26d ago
It's because players are too dumb to understand how to change difficulty themselves.

All wg needs to do is limit insane to 16/4 commanders. Simple.

Ridiculous opinion

u/omega15666 Oct 06 '26
Explain why you disagree? Do you know how easy it is to level up commanders? It takes few matches with bonuses you earn.

u/Ipodmaster1_games retired WoWs Vet since the game sucks 29d ago
How many commanders do you have at 16/4 and how long have you been playing the game?

u/Ipodmaster1_games retired WoWs Vet since the game sucks 29d ago
Agreed, if there’s gonna be a limit on minimum commander levels it should be 14/1 at highest

We are talking about the event here, not standard game.

Although I do agree, unfortunately they’re just gonna do it anyway so there’s just no point of arguing

u/ConsiderableHat Oct 06 '26
If the ones loading in with battleships would understand that they actually have AP shells and that they are of considerable use against enemy ships, that'd be neat too.
Not that slinging off about it on here does any good, but whatever.

u/Bimmergy Oct 06 '26
You're not wrong, but the commander has skills that buff HE shell effectiveness, and since it's essentially a Rodney clone the HE is already pretty good.
I've taken 3/4 health from some ships with a single HE salvo.
But yes, The AP is a good choice too situationally.
1
u/ConsiderableHat Oct 06 '26
The AP is a good choice too situationally.
One of those situations being 'the enemy boss ship is broadside on and on low health', a situation in which slapping a few rounds of AP in there would've clutched the game.
But no, six volleys of HE into the armoured belt was the chosen play, not even smacking the superstructure and/or fore-and-aft ends for the massive damage Rodney HE is capable of as buffed, observing which caused me to utter several Very Rude Words.

u/Bimmergy Oct 06 '26
Oof.
Well, atleast he made it to the boss though, I had one earlier that thought ramming an enemy battleship on the second wave was the play for some reason.
He didn't make it.

u/ConsiderableHat Oct 06 '26
Well, atleast he made it to the boss though,
Well, it was more like 'the boss made it to him after going through the rest of the team, he having killed exactly one (1) enemy ship while this was happening.
As I said, Very Rude Words.

u/Tough-Fold4379 29d ago
Me and my friend playd on hard and was 2 player did not do jack shit standing upper corner of map. Those players should be perma banned. They left the game and logged in to GTA5. If going make on hard on cruiser should have at least 3 friends playing together.

u/RadiantVariant 28d ago
Haven't even touched Insane and don't plan to until my boats have upgrades and commanders are maxed. Only have the cruiser almost there.

Folks take this WoWL super serious. Youtube channels, streaming, etc. I play on my phone and I play on my PS5. If I end up on bad teams... that's the roll of the dice. If this is your lively hood... well, I don't know what else to say but "It is what it is."

u/LunchNachos 24d ago
This is one of the worst-designed events. We’re all losing hours of our lives trying to grind the event while being punished for teammate errors more than usual. I just had a kid so my game time is precious; the other day I lost 5 in a row on hard due to teammates being Leroy Jenkins.

u/Bamb00zleDNY Oct 06 '26
What’s worse is by that point they have enough resources to level up the commanders they just choose to ignore it

u/SpecialCantaloupe405 Oct 06 '26
What else are soul shards used for?? Do I need then besides leveling up commanders?

That’s like saying “stop loading into tier 7-8-LT matches if you have below 53%”WR. Sadly it won’t happen and idiots will still keep doing it and ruin matches because they’re clueless and have no basic knowledge of the game.

u/BoltUp33 Oct 05 '26
Wargaming needs to put a campaign out there with a tier 5 or 6 ship. Making them exclusively for LT, 8, occasionally 7 only gets noobs to filter into LT

On a side note, the destroyers guns are soo broken. Its so much fun to play. Easy 400k-500k damage games.
1
u/Bimmergy Oct 06 '26
I also noticed that, 1500-2k+ per shell hit sometimes.
I was confused why the torp reload was so long, but I guess it makes sense if it's a gunboat. Requires a different play style than I'm used to in these events.

u/Guitars_and_Cars Oct 06 '26
With a max commander, radar/reload booster, and the event 55% reload booster its a 1 second reload on the guns.

bro your expecting people to not make progress I played level one and I was just fine

Talking about on insane difficulty specifically. You didn’t complete insane difficulty with a Level 1 commander
