SBS

It was indeed very one sided, but I had lots of fun none the less, and we learned important lessons for how to do it in the future. Then again, we did run right in to them making the hole, germans supposed to escape an impossibility. Had we managed to engage the search fleet alone, it could very weel be different.

I am not sure if they will depict any sort of what life on a ship is. Considering the first episode had the rice cooker as a casual, I doubt life on a WW2 DD, cramped, uncomfortable, hot, and lack of luxuries will be touched much upon. Also, I do not hope this show get's too grirry, doesn't fit with young girls. Why not just make a real war anime about a Destroyer instead of choosing moe girl character (not that I mind that kind of characters, just don't see the point in constantly having them bathed in blood in anime). If it ends up like GuP I will be happy, but we will see. What I do not get is the whole "why is it not guys? Girls don't fit in tanks/ships or whatever!", it is moe anime and in that animes universe it is perfectly fine, that's all there is too it. I do not care if it is girls or boys.

Well, Furutaka is a heavy cruiser, so compared to other tier 5 that are light cruisers, the armor should be better.

I never said it was for enemy ships. I meant it for your own one.

The problem of it automaticly selecting the carrier if nothing else is selected can be turned off. Simply click the small lock down by the carrier symbol in a battle, and it will no longer auto select CV if nothing else is selected. This way you can have nothing selected. Also, B you got is not a problem, that is just you doing unessecary work and is more a problem with muscle memory, not game design, I also played SC 2 for several years (and other RST) and I got no problem. The big problem this game has is that it is not allways very responsive. That there are deadzones around on the screen, usually in the corners and the sides where you can not click, meaning that screen had to be dead center on anything you attack. The last thing is not a very good click and drag selection, poor hotkeys, trouble changing manual drops/strafes, would be nice to actually be able to drage a manual drop zone with you (yes, i know you can, but it is nearly impossible to select it, especially in a battle).

Never personally had it happen to me unless I accidently click 1. There is actually a button you can press to prevent in from auto selecting the carrier again after deselecting planes, this limits trouble with attack runs. The button I am referring to is a small lock icon nect to the CV icon in the game down at the button of the screen.

It's anime, do not question it's logic. Also do not care much for modern ships.

As long as one ignores the comments there. Just decided to take a look while watching the episode out of boredom, and some pople think the Musashi will beat the instructors ship. They obviously do no understand the firepower of modern ships. Also did the instructor have an independence class littoral combat ship?

Those shoes do not fit Also, great to see you post here occasionallt LWM. You do good work

The ship that refused to die, oh yes, that thing would be awsome

Google "Haifuri episode 1" should probably not be too hard.

Another thing to note with the Furutaka, is that it has really trollish armor, sometimes BB armor would bounce of it's bow if you were angled really well. No idea if it was a bug, but I am assuming it was. Or it might just have been my perception of it, but I never got big hits from the front IIRC. I think Ichase also commented on this at one point, or it was another Youtuber. Best thing is deffinetly the AP, if you get within 8km or so you can even citadel tier 4 and 5 BB, especially Kongo and Myogi. Most BB players do not expect this and get a serious shock

Personally, I would like to see Akagi and Kaga in game as well, just so I can see them go up in big fire balls, AV gas is serious buiseness On a more serious note. The Northhampton class and the Tone class (allready confirmed but seems lost to the ages) and maybe the CAV and BBV ships, just for a new kind of intersting gameplay, if they can get them to work. Otherwise, ships from other nations.

Well, currently that is the only way to see if AA guns are still active, unfortunately. But WG has said they will make improvements to the UI so we can see how many AA guns and secondaries are active/destroyed. Ofcourse how long that will take to get here is anyones guess

Well, there was a post in the newcomers subforum explaining the AA mechanic. It is however a little outdated as buffs and nerfs have been made to specific guns and the focus fire, but otherwise the way AA attacks and does damage should be more or less the same. I suggest you head over there. I believe it was made by Sharana. Edit: I found it here: http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/13878-basics-aa-mechanics/

Me too, I will happily make use of it

Yes, in the beginning the two girls (the captain of the DD and the captain of Musashi) say they want to become the mermaid something, and then they are looking at Yamato (who apparently is blue, while Musashi is read) so I am assuming part of the plot is for the DD captain girl and her crew to overcome obstacle and what not, and then at the end of the series to somehow redeem themselves/earn the right or what ever and end of on the Yamato. In any case, not sure if I will like it, too early to tell, but they choose a DD for the main ship so far, so I am interested.

Just going to leave a delayed welcome here. Obviously the important part isn't so much if you are good or not at the game, but moderating the forum. I doub't gaming knowledge or skills mean that much here, other than maybe being able to understand the current balance, which is not so important, as the moderaters/managers job is to forward any feedback to the dev team anyway.

Seems like the Musashi is the red one captained by the friend, but Yamato (blue here) was seen in the beginning I think. And I am not surprised about Yamato/Musashi being focused on again, just surprised that we actually got a destroyer. Those seem so forgotten in the minds of most people.

Wow, this thread is pathetic. With that said, the showmatch had it's problems, with the thing being that it was communicated clearly what it was going to be. Was it top tier pro gameplay or just a fun showmatch, seems like WG could not agree. Getting that clearred for any future event as well as commentators and camera men who ofcourse have played the game, so they would know what to look out for, is really the biggest hurdle, and one that will most likely be fixed in the future. The other big problem was ofcourse that they didn't have a proper observer mode yet. As WoWs battle are over bigger areas of the map unlike WoT, having the camera fixed on the ships or planes is not nessecary the best. More freecam would have been great to get an overview of what is going on. But this is ofcourse something that hasn't been added to the game yet, again something that will deffinetly be added if they ever decide to be serious with the WoWs E sport.

As long as we do not get cross spawn again, then I will be happy. At least I can deal with this sort of split spawn.

Has the fakes ones been closed down? It would really be great if they were, so more people can find us. The channel has deffinetly been active lately, so to anyone out there, come on over, we don't bite

Saw it, but not sure if I will watch it. Looks like they are putting too much on the whole "yamato" again. Seriously! The IJN had soo many other great and beautiful ships! They seem to just be forgotten Oh well, it's not like western shows do much to put the spotlight on anything other than the famous Hood/Bismarck/Iowas and so on. At least the main ship is a Kagerou, but I wonder how long that will last.

Yeh, but wasn't the required amount rather low? Like 20 posts or something? I think it was more to ensure it was actually people who were active in the community that they got in.

Isn't that the case, regardless of what ship you play?
