    Puka Puka Fleet - from ASIA server

    Or maybe you two just have different prefferences? In any case, these are fun, and oh god they give my nightmarish flashbacks to the launch of open beta when the flood of new players came in and nobody understood how to use torps

    What does this website say about you?

    advocating terrorism

    Save replay and screenshots of such events and send them to WG. Making a ticket is the best way to get it done. Making a forum posts doesn't help one bit, as we got no replay or screenshot to see who it is, nor does WG. And you aren't allowed to post such on forum anyway, so your best option is to simply make a ticket.

    Tirpitz! Buy it!

    Why you do this WG? At the end of the month when most of my money has been spent and around easter too while I am also saving up for the Saipan! Why you do this, it is too tempting!

    Oh well, maybe I will have unlocked more ships by then and will be able to participate on both sides. Allways look on the bright side

    Torpedo plane drop circle gone

    That is strange, I suggest you report it, with the screenshot. It probably is a bug.
  7. He does have a point. Even with the fail Division, the MM made a mistake by assigning more tier 7 to enemy team and then more tier 5 to his team. It should at least have compensated by maybe giving his team more of the high tiers if they also are burdened by the most low tiers. Can't fix troll division unless you limit divisions, but you can at least try to even out the teams more by maybe letting the one with moost tier 5 maybe have some more tier 7 as well. Giving most tier 6 and 7 to the enemy while you get most tier 5, is not a fair match up.

    HB Reenactment: Battle of Tassafaronga

    As the date is getting closer, just want to inform that I am unavailable the 25th, but can join on the 26th and 27th.
  9. I am not sure about the whole "loosing players bit". At any release there are going to be more players than the game will have regularly afterwards, as a lot of people rush to try out the game, and then it settles in later. The playerbase is still great.
  10. This can basicly be said for every class in the game. Whenever a nerf comes to a class people will complain, no matter how justified it is. The last time I complained about CV nerfs, were when they nerfed the strafing and basicly made it useless, because I want fighters to at least be more than just point and click and then leave them for 3 min. That is allways why CV captains do no want nerfs to manual drop (at least too much), we do not want auto drops to be better than manual, as that just makes it point and click. Though most CV captains complaining are actually complaining about IJN vs USN CV. The whole 4 planes vs 6 planes, the different compositions and so on. USN complain they lack good versatile fit, IJN that a single USN CV can make them do nothing for an entire game. It's more that people are annoyed of the balance between the CV lines, not so much anything else.

    Books on warships

    Hello everyone. I am writing this because I am asking this community for a little bit of help. Recently I have been reading a few books about anval warships from WW2, though these have mainly been Royal Navy and USN. Granted the books I have read have been what I could get my hands on from the local library, but I am now interested in looking for other books. Does anyone know any good books about warships, preferrably from ww2. It can be surface ships, submarines and so on and so forth. I would be particularly happy with books abouth japanese or german ships, as they are generally very defficult for myself to find. Any help or information would be appreciated
  12. When, since opent beta massive changes has happened. AA has undergone several changes in an attempt to make it fair for both CV and none CV. Planes now were just brought more in line with each other, make jumps from tier to tier smaller, and all none CV ships had their turning circles reduced, some BB and CA/CL by nearly 20%. This really makes it harder to make torp runs now and prevent the clubbing that was at beta. Also around Beta and launch 90% of people were new and had no idea how to counter. They were just ignorant/noobs and instantly went OP on everything without trying to understand the game.
  13. Somebody had me the strong stuff, I need it to cope with the MM, as well as the quality of teams tonight.

    Why is the server down ?

    The servers have several problems tonight. Wg have stated that they are looking in to it to find a solution. Untill then you can expect troubles with the server and really long qeue times.

    Server down / problems?

    Nice to know. Hope you manage to find a fix soon.

    Server down / problems?

    Do not think I have ever seen this many people in qeue since launch of the game. Now if only all of these people were clueless noobs in BB's for me to clup at low tiers

    Spotting

    Yeh, but on a tier 4 IJN DD, by the time the AA starts firering the planes will have spotted him anyway, so I doubt it was that.

    Spotting

    Agree, a Replay would be needed. This sounds like either player error or a bug. If it is player error, well getting more familiar with the system helps. If it is a bug, a replay is needed to find out what is going on as well as fix it.
  22. But he has a point. Different ships have different streangths. USN are much better for AA defense than, say the IJN ships. North Carolina for examply are not fun to attack in a tier 7 CV, and don't even think about doing it in a tier 6. An Amagi, sure no problem. Might still loose some planes, but it is much more doable.
  23. SBS

    Server down / problems?

    Yep. There have been problems with the MM all day. Could be them taking it down to do a bit of work, or the server just completely crashed.
  24. The only thing I can think of are tier 10 and maybe tier 9. At the lower tiers the ships don't have a lot of AA, but the planes are slow and ships turn fast, so avoiding attacks aren't that difficult if you just have some awareness. Granted a lot of players lack this. However, this isn't to say that at high tiers ships have no chance, a well specced tier 10 or 9 CA can shoot down a lot of planes, a Des Moines can basicly become a no fly zone for anything that isn't tier 10, and even tier 10 can take losses. Again, it depends on how the captain skills are specced. At tier 7 and 8, possibly tier 6 as well, I feel it is more balanced. Planes have the ability to do a lot of damage, but can also be countered hard by a good AA cruiser, especially if BB and CA stick together, their combined AA can sometimes make no fly zones, at least untill later in the battle and HE have taken out some of the AA guns. This is important, the longer time passes, the easier it becomes for CV, as AA guns are knocked out.
  25. SBS

    Has Wyoming buged AA defence?

    I think he means at around tier 7, AA is pretty good, at tier 9 and 10, the AA is really good, but planes are just so fast. Unless you fly near a cruiser that is AA specced, the planes can get out before they are hurt to badly. However if they find an AA specced tier 10 cruiser, well, you can say goodbuy to all your squadrons. Again, with the speed of planes at that tier, it depends on the reaction time of the CV player. Edit: Also remember, the patch tomorrow will buff AA again, but adding buffing "focused AA" fire from a 10% boost to a 30% boost in damage.
