HMS_Erebus

Hello, Playing WoWs quite a bit again, very much interested in history and the idea of reenactments of notable engagements intrigues me more than a little. Playing my destroyers a lot at the moment but I've gone up a few lines. Only just left my current clan, there was very little activity in it.

Would I be eligible to join you guys? https://worldofwarships.eu/en/community/accounts/500009297-HMS_Erebus/!/pvp/ships/?bestShip=north_20carolina https://eu.warships.today/player/500009297/HMS_Erebus

A lot of people give other players who make mistakes serious grief rather than constructive criticism and help in the battle. Things would be far better if people actually gave advice rather than just saying noon, usually 30 seconds after they've died because they didn't bother to look at the minimap.

Its quite fun to give a cruiser a fright by turning about and chasing them down. Its like any ship really good map awareness gets you a long way but she's got a lot of speed which helps in extricating yourself from dodgy situations. I honestly could do without the defensive fire consumable its pretty much useless against TBs which is the only plane it has a difficulty with, i'd rather see it do no damage boost but effect the dispersion it'd actually make it viable against a weakness at the moment its a novelty at best.

I don't think WG have helped themselves in selling the Hood by teasing not just the Hood itself but the Kaga, the Enterprise and HMS Gallant in the past week or so... oh and the Makarov/RussiaNberg. If they were going to stagger the releases they could've at least given us 2 options in the first week so those who have more brass than sense can play Alan Bennett class and pay and get the ships big bundle if they need a resupply of their flags and gold and the whatnot and people with a bit less to spend can do just that if they want the Hood; I think it's a safe bet that there's quite a few people in the latter category.

Your not serious are you?

Wut? It could be he just finds destroyers and the like more enjoyable; carriers for example are/were good and people played them on their own, doesn't mean everyone would just on the basis that the ships themselves are good. Not everyone enjoys the same style of gameplay and battleships play very differently from cruisers and destroyers.

You know if your spotted thanks to SI becoming a default skill for all captains so you should at least start taking that into account when your planning your advance. Also saying Ignores the fact that DDs now have a let off because of the lack of carriers which were their most effective counter, even then your stretching it to say they should be nerfed more just because some players can't quite manage to work out how to reduce the threat from them. The way some people go on about getting hit by torps makes me think that a lot of them don't know anything about adjusting their speeds whatsoever.

Lost interest in WT because of the mismanagement from Gaijin; don't get me wrong WG isn't without its faults and mistakes but they're hardly biased in the same way Gaijin are and at least the MM makes some semblance of sense. Also PT boats sounds interesting but I like the big ships, if I want PT boats I'll dig out BF1942 and/or get Forgotten Hope again.

There are sweet spots in every line as well to consider, as, you might lose interest in playing a certain way at points and want to go up a differnt line for a while.

I think Jingles' lack of experience with BBs showed in this video tbh

As a side, the same site that provided the leak has this as well, suggesting a pair of other German BBs; presumably a one of the Kaiser class dreadnoughts judging by the armaments and name of one of them. http://bbs.ngacn.cc/read.php?tid=9471962&_ff=441

Its probably worth noting that forum's aside you won't see the difference in game until there's a server restart anyway.

A lot of ships do not necessarily play in the same manner or role regardless of class so it's not always a fair comparison. That said I find that on average BBs are played the worst by players , but they are on average I feel the class with the most potential when played well.

I can only assume the OP is referring to the Dimitri or something because his highest tier Soviet DD is the Tasha.

271m at 21.1km for the NC versus 276m at 21.4km for the Tirptiz That said you shouldn't overlook the Tirpitz's superior armour and higher rate of fire o it'd be kind of strange from a balance point of view for the Tirp to be the most accurate of the three consider her other advantages. Edit: Scratch that just remembered I have the accuracy mod on the Tirp which does put it down to a little over 250m dispersion.

The Tirpitz has better dispersion than the North Carolina, so i suspect you've just got unlucky with RNG in this case.

You could possibly modify some of the lines that don't get used like all those various baseball skins that seem to exist in the code.

Perhaps the new camouflage file from .0.5.6 interferes a bit more than the last patch; the patterns themselves are still usable in any event.

Germany can't claim a tactical victory over the Royal Navy at Jutland, it was forced to retreat you can call the battle a pyrrhic victory if you want, but Britain still won. Also the fact that you only get the flag by getting the bundle is a bit silly if you already have the Warspite.

I mean the Myoko isn't hugely worse than the Mogami or Ibuki anyway; now if you were in the Pensacola I'd sympathise more.

But then we'd miss out on such high quality posting from him; actually hang on he'd probably still post even if he didn't play.

No worries guys we can buy an Atago bundle on our store.

Considering the smoke in this game doesn't always display itself this mod is actually quite handy for the DD's themselves, now they'll be able to work around their own smoke better which I think is pretty important for some of the gunboats in particular.

It still goes down irrespective of whether or not you play that day. It has to the best of my knowledge been this way for years even in the case of WoT.
