tocqueville8 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) Oh no, someone mistook a heavy cruiser for a battlecruiser, only the most controversial ship designation ever! Anyway... Edited January 19 by tocqueville8 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your probably right but I'm sure they hired some people with some knowledge and they could proof read these things. But alas things slip by read any internet articles and there littered with misspellings, missing words and wrong dates you know the deal. Lol Edited January 20 by clammboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevermore135 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Bismarck’s in-game ship description was recently changed, and in the new text Prinz Eugen is also erroneously referred to as a battlecruiser. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpaktop2_1 NA Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 It must be labelled as such on the spreadsheet. Seems legit. 1 hour ago, Ensign Cthulhu said: Talk about it to me when your posts are free of errors in spelling, grammar and punctuation. Well the OP is not being paid as a professional for his typing, where as the WG staff are being paid for their typing skill. Unless you are saying that WG as a company wants to recognize for this type of sloppy work. Then again WG is no Ubisoft either. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chysagon Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 At least they put in cruiser so a 50% score right there, they can aim for 75% next time. He could have called it a Bottlecruiser. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to educate yourself on Russian letters to the equivalent English letters. Next time, 'Clark', be a clerk & do your research. Also, the spelling is Aurora in both one's port (if you have that ship) & at the WoWS wiki reference for the ship. It is only at the replay folder where someone mis-spells the name from what it is supposed to be in english.

Next time, 'Clark', be a clerk & do your research. My friend, ANYTHING in English letters is a translation of the Russian. Avrora is a commonly accepted translation, as I showed you of the ship name. It is, of course, incorrect...as is EVERY spelling in English letters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
