The one advantage of the RN short smoke is you’ll rarely sit there long enough to get torped, but your smoke effectively baits the torps which might otherwise have hit a silly old BB.
Reminds me of the advantage of having a short gun range (specifically on the pan-euro dd's) that allows players to fire in open water and remain stealthed so long as their target doesn't have LOS since the bloom doesn't expand very far.
I have noticed that as well playing a US DD. I will smoke up to get the hell out of a bad situation then watch the 1:30 timer tick off while I scoot to another part of the map. Long smoke charges are great at Tier 5-6 but once you get radar cruisers and smart DD players the risk is usually not worth sitting in it.
I appreciate the focus on free ships. I think it helps reduce the FOMO when people see free ships, and especially free ships that aren't too hard to reach like a tech tree T8, doing well. I assume a lot of people are freshly F2P (I know I am) so I think it's a good thing to see more of this right now.
All the negative press WarGaming has been getting lately actually got me to START playing for the first time! I only pay for premium time so 10$ a month but the grind is fun! Japan and Germany with a bit of UK mixed. Subs are trash though.. I'll never buy a premium ship, they're outrageously priced and as you said: you can have just as much fun in tech line ships! (Other than the Myogi)
Sorry but is disconnecting a common thing for most people? If i had to play games like i saw in this video i would stop all together and burn down offices of my isp.

I can attest. I live in the US. 150 ping for me is a great day. Fastest internet provided in my area is 3Mbps. If it is sunny with no wind and the stars are aligned over the north and south pole. Thanks Frontier
Man that sucks. Yesterday I was complaining about having only 4 Mbps before realising I had one of my cables half unpluged. Once fixed It was back to my usual 100+ Mbps (I'm from a small French town near Paris).
12:50 That's a pretty good sign that his internet is fine, what a lot of people don't realize is that ISPs cheap out and the modem/router they give you is often the bottom of the barrel garbage, especially those combo units that do both (even the aftermarket models suck), they're not even worth taking for free but what makes it worse is they actually charge a rental fee for that crap, if nothing else buy your own router, something inexpensive like ~$30 is fine and you'll probably be a lot less frustrated.
Lag spikes and games freezing miid-play is common here in NA. I have a supposedly 200Mbps internet connection. Still have stutters, lags, and connection drops. Despite this matches issues, very well played. Thank you dear salt mine leader.
I have had similar issues with lag, most notably after each WoWS update. None of the other games I play seem to be affected, and the problem usually goes away after a day or so. Annoying, but bearable.
I've been playing thru this ship, and I hated it. Me like big number. Me no like play for team. That said, after I figured it out, this ship is amazing. It is an absolute pest with decent guns, good conceal, and amazing smokes. I am almost to Jutland now, and I just had an amazing game where I kept an Alsace, Jean Bart, and ZF-6 occupied for 5-10 minutes on our side's cap with an afk scharnhorst in our spawn and the rest of my team dead.
I've fallen in love with the RN DD line after the 10.7 PTS run against subs. They're almost like a jack of all trades DD, effective against anything you may run up against in some way. I FXPed up from Jervis to Daring first chance I got.
Personally the Lightning is my favorite tech tree ship, and I've hard carried games with doing 150k+ dmg and close to 3k BXP. The key is to help get the enemy DDs killed at the start so you can operate within that 5.5km detect - 8km torp range of enemy ships and rack up huge dmg numbers. The trick is to keep firing torps from odd angles at ships, and if they go bow in, just single fire them in a narrow space to land a few hits, when the enemy ship uses DCP you smoke up and start lighting fires.. you keep doing that and with a few torp hits and fires on 2-3 BBs is an easy 100k
I've tried them but they're not my cup of tea, mainly because they're such generalist ships. I like the min-max playstyles other lines offer a lot, whether that be IJN torpedo boats for being a plague with high damage stealth torps or just raw general DPS with the Swedish DD's (which I particularly enjoy for their blitzing torps)
You did it you glorious bastard ! You hurt Waragming right in the wallet and screwed them big time.. PEGI is going up Congratulations Jingles, that was a job really well done

I love playing Lightning (or any British DD) in ranked. It/they are just so versatile that the small team mode is ideally suited to them, and small maps mean that their relative lack of speed is less of a problem. They are so strong against other DDs that 2k+ bxp games are pretty routine.
Yeah I played ranked in the 10.7 PTS with the RN DDs and loved them. I FXPed up from Jervis to Daring first chance I got. Sent in a Lightning replay from the PTS to Jingles even, the title really cockteased me, thinking this could have been it.
RE: The Tone, I was reading a book on Midway recently (sorry, can't remember which), and the author made an argument I hadn't encountered before: Even if the Tone's scout had taken off on time, the position of the American ships was such that it wouldn't have spotted them until it was on the return leg of its flight path. Meaning that it wouldn't have made any difference time-wise.
That book was probably Shattered Sword by Parshall and Tully. Very good book and arguably the cause of my fascination with the IJN and the overall Japanese perspective on the war.
There was no real tension in the replay once the enemy Tone somehow managed to whiff his final salvo and Akizuki got outspotted in open water. Friendly Akizuki basically killed himself and made it closer than it needed to be but 2 battleships will always lose to a DD that passes the skill floor check.
@@Senshikaji its true, I have no problems identifying a win and identifying that anything other than running away is detrimental. Often while telling the team in chat not to try and win harder
Computer crashed on me once. I managed to restart and quickly log back in to find myself way off to the side of the map with a lone DD right there in front of me 'farming' the hit flags (I was in UK BB, can't remember which.) and I was about half down and the guns turned to point at them and they didn't realize it, then blam. One shot kill. We lost the match, but I felt like I won the game.
Wow! What a close match. That was impressive even before the disconnect. It was amazing the other team did a much better job staying alive and sinking enemy ships, but forfeiting 3 caps early in the game cost them too many points. Well played!
As North American player I can't stop laughing Everytime Jingles says rooter where we 'Merikans call them RowTers ,😂🤣... still love watching Jingles channel👍🍺
It's times like this I'm glad that I'm on the western side of the Atlantic, while jingles is on the western side, so I get to wake up to see videos like this
Of interest, while he was restoring his connection, he got really lucky in that he was stopped against the island INSIDE the cap circle and capped during the time he was out of the game.
Jingles, the NA server is also where all of Latin America plays. We use Spanish in the chat all the time, yet quickly flip to communicating in limey if needed.
Probably because the turbolasers used in e.g. the trench run were turrets the guys at ILM had taken from model kits of WW2 ships and dressed them up a bit with greeblies.
I'm never sure when I watch Jingles' videos - do British smokescreens last long? I wonder if the cooldown is long or short... Some things I may never know.
@@mig-29fulcrum15 I've never used them the way this guy did. Always a get-out-jail card for me. I'll have to try it a little as the Brit guns are pretty good.
In rural far northern Minnesota, there is a hardline cable dedicated to internet. Northstream Fiber is partially funded in installation by a Federal infrastructure grant. It is very affordable and reliable internet. Some are more fortunate than others.
The Tone was in the battles of the Java Sea, Midway, Eastern Solomons, Santa Cruz, Phillppine Sea, and Leyte Gulf (of Taffy 3 fame). Quite a storied ship.
Awesome win, overcoming the disconnect. I lost a clan battle this week because one of my mates lost connection at the worst possible moment. He felt bad about it but I let him know I counted the game as a win in my book. I had played quite well and I know he's accurate and would have killed one of the enemy DDs that determined the outcome.
One thing's for sure: Lightning starts fires. Love having 7 short smokes: also love the inline torps for shocking stilled campers bow on. Its AA sucks but I did earn an AA expert "once" lol. It's 35 kills to get AA expert on the NA server: 20 AA kills elsewhere. Love lightning: A unique ship that offers a challenging, fun, sneaky 5.5k conceal, 007 "gotcha" type of playstyle.
Internet lags could be so many things. Honestly, I haven't experienced throttling here in the US at all, at least where I am at. Either way, I did have a bad modem that was causing frequent lag spikes and other problems. Once I replaced that, I haven't experience lag spikes at all.
theres also a lot of old line amps in the us more then 15years old that get hot then have to cool down over and over i see less of it at night but in the summer in the day it happens almost every 4 or 5 min so 2 to 3 times a game for me the loss is about 75 to 99% of a 1gb net service
Here is a tip for shooting out of smoke when you know the enemy is going to blind fire you. Dont fire all your guns at once as a salvo. Shoot them off one at a time. If you shoot DD guns all at once then the enemy simply points the crosshairs between the muzzle flashes and hits you. If you shoot one at a time it is harder to track you actual location. I remember getting nailed by a CL once shooting a full salvo so I switched to single fire while creeping forward and back and the CL didnt even bother to shoot again after that even though his guns were pointed at me.
a few years ago, when i played ships every day, i used to buy 365 days of premium every year to grind lines. i don't play now, but i played a few months ago without premium time. I thought grinding would suck without premium time, but it wasn't that bad. I worked on the euro dd's from the start to get the halland, went from amagi to yamato, and reset the japanese hagumaro line to get research points. of course, i have a ton of camos and flags because i've played for so long, which made it less painful. a new player without camo and flags would have a different experience. the only reason i'm posting this is to suggest to anyone like me who always plays with premium time to grind lines, give it a try without it to see how you manage. it may not be as bad as you think. then, you may realize you don't have to give this dumpster fire of a company your money to enjoy this fun game. i hope this information is useful to someone.
Are you talking about reload booster? It's a consumable that instantly reloads the torpedoes that's found on the IJN gunboat destroyers, or on Asashio, or on Shiratsuyu/Kagero/Yugumo if you swap it for smoke. A couple others that I might not remember from the top of my head. RN DD's torp launchers dont start reloading until the entire rack is launched, and I personally feel like that should be updated to how sub launchers or the airstrikes work, where is you launch one, it starts reloading automatically instead of waiting for the whole torp rack to be empty before starting reload process
@@dgritsak147 No. In previous interactions of the game you could force torpedo tubes to reload after a partial salvo by pressing a key (“F”, IIRC), which would restart the reload timer for all tubes. I think it even worked for main cannon, but that may be incorrect. I rarely used it and only on ships with side-mounted torpedo tubes.
I'm absolutely sure it has nothing to do with the fact that our internet providers, are controlled by a monopoly...we pay the more than any other country, an have terrible connection, an speed.
Jingles...I recommend you read Shattered Sword by Anthony Tully and John Parschall. it kinda goes over many of the myths of Midway...one being that it was Tone no. 4 that caused them to miss the carriers. Chikuma's scout plane no. 5 went over the USN fleet almost directly and didn't even see them, so he was probably being lazy and not flying below the clouds. Sorry: historical OCD kicked in.
The reason why there is better communication on the American servers is not just that there is less of a language barriers but the fact most Americans and Canadians are outgoing and somewhat chatty to strangers. Even Mexicans and Brazilians are more outgoing than then Spaniards or Portuguese. I can't explain why, it just seems that way.
Jingles, the NA server isnt just for the NA players, in fact the entirety of the american continent plays there. Im from Brazil and theres plenty of us and other south americans on the server. In world of tanks we have our own server down here in south america, but not in WoW. My theory for the more communication in NA is that US players naturally tend to communicate and coordinate more in online games from my experience. They seem to think they're all tactical experts, i guess theyre more into military stuff than most and they do have better knowledge.
@The Mighty Jingles I saw a video where you imp[licated yourself into the Desert Storm scenario, in the naval sense, and I was impressed by your performance there. The Iraqi "cruise" missile thing in the gulf. Good work on your part...bad form on your officers though. LOL
Jingles: "Teams on the EU server don't communicate as well due to a lack of a common language."
Asia Server: "Hold my beer"
"What language, all I see on chat are boxes!"
"Exactly."
Asian WoW servers: "Communication?? The fuck is that?"
Actually this game is from EU Server not NA
Dont they all just speak Chinese in Asia? No? Well they will.
SEA is the squares in chat server. I always have ask what they are saying. Some are kind enough to respond 😊👍🏻
The one advantage of the RN short smoke is you’ll rarely sit there long enough to get torped, but your smoke effectively baits the torps which might otherwise have hit a silly old BB.

Internet lags could be so many things. Honestly, I haven't experienced throttling here in the US at all, at least where I am at. Either way, I did have a bad modem that was causing frequent lag spikes and other problems. Once I replaced that, I haven't experience lag spikes at all.
theres also a lot of old line amps in the us more then 15years old that get hot then have to cool down over and over i see less of it at night but in the summer in the day it happens almost every 4 or 5 min so 2 to 3 times a game for me the loss is about 75 to 99% of a 1gb net service
@@xkgbciax5286 Crazy, yeah I can see that happening in some places. I am in Missouri and haven't had an issue other than the occasional random thing.
I like it how at 5:58 an enemy Tone gets obliterated in the background.
Here is a tip for shooting out of smoke when you know the enemy is going to blind fire you. Dont fire all your guns at once as a salvo. Shoot them off one at a time. If you shoot DD guns all at once then the enemy simply points the crosshairs between the muzzle flashes and hits you. If you shoot one at a time it is harder to track you actual location. I remember getting nailed by a CL once shooting a full salvo so I switched to single fire while creeping forward and back and the CL didnt even bother to shoot again after that even though his guns were pointed at me.
What a fantastic replay. WP.
a few years ago, when i played ships every day, i used to buy 365 days of premium every year to grind lines. i don't play now, but i played a few months ago without premium time. I thought grinding would suck without premium time, but it wasn't that bad. I worked on the euro dd's from the start to get the halland, went from amagi to yamato, and reset the japanese hagumaro line to get research points. of course, i have a ton of camos and flags because i've played for so long, which made it less painful. a new player without camo and flags would have a different experience. the only reason i'm posting this is to suggest to anyone like me who always plays with premium time to grind lines, give it a try without it to see how you manage. it may not be as bad as you think. then, you may realize you don't have to give this dumpster fire of a company your money to enjoy this fun game. i hope this information is useful to someone.
This guy has the best internet ever. Never saw a negative ping.
"whoever runs the ISP monopoly wherever he happens to live" - Ouch, I felt that.
Morning Jingles
Did WG disable the “force reload function” on the torpedo launchers? It used to be that you could press a key and restart the reload cycle.
Are you talking about reload booster? It's a consumable that instantly reloads the torpedoes that's found on the IJN gunboat destroyers, or on Asashio, or on Shiratsuyu/Kagero/Yugumo if you swap it for smoke. A couple others that I might not remember from the top of my head.
RN DD's torp launchers dont start reloading until the entire rack is launched, and I personally feel like that should be updated to how sub launchers or the airstrikes work, where is you launch one, it starts reloading automatically instead of waiting for the whole torp rack to be empty before starting reload process
@@dgritsak147 No. In previous interactions of the game you could force torpedo tubes to reload after a partial salvo by pressing a key (“F”, IIRC), which would restart the reload timer for all tubes. I think it even worked for main cannon, but that may be incorrect. I rarely used it and only on ships with side-mounted torpedo tubes.
Jingles fix your background noise by activating "RTX voice" thank you.. love your work!!
Lag and loss of connection happens everyday in NA, between thunderstorms and AT&T I just give up some days.
I'm absolutely sure it has nothing to do with the fact that our internet providers, are controlled by a monopoly...we pay the more than any other country, an have terrible connection, an speed.
Beautiful
Jingles...I recommend you read Shattered Sword by Anthony Tully and John Parschall. it kinda goes over many of the myths of Midway...one being that it was Tone no. 4 that caused them to miss the carriers. Chikuma's scout plane no. 5 went over the USN fleet almost directly and didn't even see them, so he was probably being lazy and not flying below the clouds.
Sorry: historical OCD kicked in.
Go greased lightning you're burning down the heat lap track 🎶
The reason why there is better communication on the American servers is not just that there is less of a language barriers but the fact most Americans and Canadians are outgoing and somewhat chatty to strangers. Even Mexicans and Brazilians are more outgoing than then Spaniards or Portuguese. I can't explain why, it just seems that way.
Jingles, the NA server isnt just for the NA players, in fact the entirety of the american continent plays there. Im from Brazil and theres plenty of us and other south americans on the server. In world of tanks we have our own server down here in south america, but not in WoW.
My theory for the more communication in NA is that US players naturally tend to communicate and coordinate more in online games from my experience. They seem to think they're all tactical experts, i guess theyre more into military stuff than most and they do have better knowledge.
A very well played game Owidel
Thanks Jingles.
I saw you on one of my history channels that I watch! :-D
Ah, the ol' "lag spike straight into a landmass" maneuver. Works every time.
(note: it did not work for USN Destroyer Squadron 11 in 1923)
@The Mighty Jingles I saw a video where you imp[licated yourself into the Desert Storm scenario, in the naval sense, and I was impressed by your performance there. The Iraqi "cruise" missile thing in the gulf. Good work on your part...bad form on your officers though. LOL
Nicely done Odell
Bravo Ovidel!
He`s a Romanian player playing on the NA server, of course there are going to be lag spikes!
joaca pe EU, jingles iar a incurcat oalele :)
